## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the year ended 31 March 2025**
## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Significant activities and achievements and performance Demand and Service Growth**
Demand for our services continues to exceed our current capacity. The loss of Local Authority funding led to the reduction of 9 vital posts across our charity, including counsellors, ISVAs, our office manager, and staff in marketing & communications and outreach. This has unfortunately limited the variety of projects and services we can offer compared to previous years. In response, we are actively developing a new funding strategy to increase our income and rebuild our capacity.
We continue to actively lobby statutory services and the Government. We've contributed to numerous consultations and research projects, advocating for adequate, long-term, and ring-fenced funding for specialist sexual violence services. Our goal is to ensure sustainable support for survivors nationwide.
To address the increased demand and limited resources, we've developed a new Therapeutic Services model designed to support as many people as possible, as quickly as possible. Our new telephone assessment process is proving effective, as are our Welcome sessions. The majority of attendees at these sessions are signing up for Thrive, a 6-week psychoeducational and wellbeing program tailored specifically for survivors and victims of sexual abuse. Thrive is the final component of our new model, set to launch in May 2025. This innovative approach allows us to maximize our support while working towards increased funding.
## In 2024/25
- CRASAC provided specialist interventions for 1,266 unique individuals (4,387 unique individuals over the last 5 years) - excluding outreach and training.
- 615 unique individuals were referred into our services via external referral sources.*
- The counselling service received 374 new referrals and 301 people attended 3,050 counselling sessions.*
- The ISVA service received 405 new referrals and provided advocacy support for 631 people.
- The ISVA team's caseload is around 63 clients per full time ISVA, and 87% of clients are engaging with the criminal justice service (NB this is not a precursor for support)
- 188 people engaged in our specialist pre-therapy interventions through a range of 1-1 and group sessions. A total of 36 groups were delivered.
- 23 people engaged in our post service groups
- 6 training sessions were delivered to 58 people, three sessions on vicarious trauma and three sessions on sexual violence awareness.
* NB our counselling waiting list was closed to people aged 13 years and over 10 months between 1st February and 27th October 2024 and our eligibility also changed to Coventry residents only from October 2025 due to lack of funding.
## **Developments and Initiatives**
This year, we focused on strengthening our services, building impactful partnerships, and ensuring our work had a lasting positive effect on the community.
**Innovating Service Delivery** : To ensure our support reached more people and had a deeper impact, we successfully designed and began implementing an innovative new therapeutic services model.
**Informing Policy with Research:** Our collaboration with Coventry and Warwick Universities resulted in the comprehensive 'Mental Health Needs Assessment for Victim-Survivors of Sexual Violence', a vital report commissioned by the Police and Crime Commissioner that will shape future support.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the year ended 31 March 2025**
## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES**
**Fostering Community Support** : We proudly partnered with the Starfish collaboration to establish and deliver a vital peer support group, creating spaces for shared healing and connection.
**Acknowledged for Our Dedication** : Our commitment to the community was publicly recognised when we received a 'Highly Commended' award at the prestigious Coventry and Warwickshire Business & Community Awards.
**Measuring What Matters** : We introduced the 'Cope and Recover Assessment' (CARA), our bespoke evaluation tool. CARA allows us to rigorously assess and demonstrate the tangible outcomes and impact of our work, ensuring we are always improving outcome for our clients.
**Influencing Community Safety Strategy:** Survivors insights directly contributed to the Police and Crime Plan, as we facilitated an important group discussion with some of our clients on behalf of the Police and Crime Commissioner.
**Building a Network of Support for Women** : Through our ongoing development of the Coventry Women's Partnership, alongside Kairos WWT, Fosehill Women's Centre, Central England Law Centre, and Coventry Haven, we are dedicated to ensuring women throughout Coventry feel supported, empowered, and believed.
**Collaborating for a Safer West Midlands** : We're actively engaged with West Midlands Police and the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner, supporting the crucial implementation of Operation Soteria via the West Midlands Sexual Assault and Abuse Board.
## **With Thanks to Our Incredible Supporters**
We extend our deepest gratitude to our donors and fundraisers, whose extraordinary generosity and unwavering commitment this year have been absolutely vital in sustaining our critical services. Their support directly enables us to continue our work. We are equally thankful for our incredible volunteers, who have dedicated their invaluable time and expertise. Their contributions significantly enhance our capacity and reach. Looking ahead, we are excited to welcome a new cohort of placement counsellors this autumn, further strengthening our team and expanding our ability to help those in need.
## **Public benefit**
The Trustees of CRASAC are dedicated to upholding our commitment to public benefit, always with due regard to the guidance published by the Charities Commission. This commitment is at the heart of everything we do and is demonstrated through the following key areas:
- **Empowering Survivors:** We provide comprehensive support and advocacy to all victims and survivors of sexual violence and abuse, ensuring they have a voice and access to the help they need.
- **Inclusive Support:** We recognise that survivors often face a range of challenges, including physical, learning, and emotional well-being difficulties. Our services are designed to be inclusive and responsive to these diverse needs.
- **Prevention and Awareness** : Through our vital outreach programs, we actively promote prevention strategies and raise public awareness about sexual violence and abuse.
- **Expert Training** : We deliver specialised training to other organisations, sharing our expertise on issues related to rape and sexual abuse to foster a more informed and supportive community.
- **Collaborative Research** : We actively contribute to the research efforts of other organiations, helping to advance understanding and improve responses to sexual violence.
- **Advocacy and Partnership:** We work closely with partners and passionately campaign to ensure the voices of survivors are heard and respected, influencing positive change.

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities Outcomes and Impact**
At CRASAC, our fundamental purpose is to empower individuals to heal from the trauma of sexual violence and its lasting effects on their lives and the lives of their loved ones. We know our work saves lives, and demonstrating this profound impact is essential for securing the vital funding that sustains our services
. This year, we significantly enhanced our ability to measure this impact with the development and implementation of our new **Cope & Recover Assessment (CARA) tool** . This bespoke, outcomes-focused monitoring tool provides a more efficient and effective way to collect and evidence the tangible changes our clients experience as a direct result of the specialist interventions they receive from us.
While CARA excels at capturing individual progress, it's important to acknowledge that the full scope of our support extends far beyond what can be quantified. The positive changes experienced by our clients often create a **powerful ripple effect** , leading to wider, lasting impacts on their families, children, friends, communities, and society as a whole. We frequently receive unsolicited messages from former clients, sometimes years after their support concluded, sharing heartwarming updates on their continued well-being and success - a true testament to the enduring difference we make.
The data below, gathered using our new CARA tool, illustrates the percentage of clients across all service types who reported either an improvement or stabilisation in each area of the outcome assessment at the end of their service:
|How confident I feel|93%|
|---|---|
|How confident am I to make decisions that are right for me?|93%|
|How able am I to engage socially?|93%|
|How able am I to engage in my day-to-day life?|93%|
|How able am I to cope with my feelings in a positive way|87%|
|How supportive and safe are my relationships?|87%|
## **Transitioning Our Outcome Measurement**
This year marked a transition in our outcome measurement, as we began implementing the new CARA tool. Due to the nature of collecting baseline data at the start of an intervention and then again upon its completion, there's a necessary overlap in the use of our two outcome measurement tools during this period.
The following data reflects outcomes captured using our original outcome tool, showing the percentage of clients who reported either an improvement or stabilisation in key areas of the outcome assessment at the end of their service:
|How confident I feel|96%|
|---|---|
|Ability to get across what happened to me|94%|
|How I feel about myself|94%|
|Ability to cope with my feelings|92%|
|Ability to make decisions about my future|92%|
|How I feel I fit in and belong|91%|
|Confidence in asking for help if I felt at risk|91%|
|Ability to cope with what happened to me without||
|hurting myself|91%|
|I feel I have a say in what happens to me|90%|
|How well I take care of myself|89%|
|How easy I find it to make friends or be close to||
|people|89%|
|I know what my rights are|89%|
|Ability to sleep without nightmares/panic attacks or||
|other disruptions to sleep|88%|
|I know how I feel|87%|

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the year ended 31 March 2025**
## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**
## **Reserves policy**
CRASAC Board has developed its reserves policy after reviewing the guidance provided by the Charities Commission in their 'Charities and Reserves' document. This policy was reviewed and agreed by the Board at their meeting on 2nd June 2025.
## **Current Policy**
The trustees have set a reserves policy which requires a target level of general reserves of £558,000. This target is equivalent to:
- Six months of forecast expenditure (£508,000) given the potential risk of many funding streams ceasing simultaneously, allowing for a short window to develop or receive the outcome of new funding bids, and manage the handover of clients to other organisations, in an appropriate manner and,
## In addition:
- A sum of £50,000 to cover all other financial risks, after taking account of the processes and procedures to mitigate those risks.
The Trustees have set aside funds within four designated reserves, to cover key strategic risks and key infrastructure costs. Some of the funds that were set aside in 2023/2024 have now been spent. The reasons behind the designated funds are as follows:
- IT Infrastructure Fund (£14,400) - the purpose of this fund is to allow us to replace IT equipment that has reached its lifespan to enable us to provide a flexible, excellent service.
- Redecoration Fund (£2,600) - has been set aside to enhance areas of the building we use that are not currently fit for purpose and refresh tired looking spaces.
- Sustainability and Development fund (£14,400) - The aim of this fund is to enable the charity to develop income streams, including external training and connections that will enhance the sustainability of the charity.
- Building Fund (£8,400) - there is a risk that the current property becomes unsuitable or unavailable. The aim of this fund is to allow us to prepare for any costs associated with a move, including third party advice.
On the basis of the unrestricted Funds as at 31 March 2025, as set out below, there is a shortfall in target reserves and CRASAC will seek to increase the level over the next 12 months by careful management of expenditure and short-term opportunities for efficiency savings.
||£'000|£'000|
|---|---|---|
|**Total unrestricted funds**||552.1|
|**Less designated funds**|||
|IT Infrastructure|14.4||
|Redecoration|2.6||
|Sustainability & Development|14.4||
|Building Fund|8.4||
|Total Designated Funds||39.8|
|**General Reserves**||512.3|
|**Deficit from target reserves of £598,300**||(86.0)|
This is a reasonable level of free reserves and CRASAC will be seeking to increase the level over the next 12 months by careful management of expenditure, short-term opportunities for efficiency savings and increased applications for unrestricted grants to utilise donations and fundraisers to grow our reserves.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the year ended 31 March 2025**
## **FUTURE PLANS**
CRASAC is very grateful to all our funders and fundraisers who have enabled us to maintain and enhance our services and provide specialist interventions and support with thousands of clients and professionals. A significant amount of our funding continues to be for a relatively short period of between one and four years which makes future planning for sustainability difficult in a challenging economic climate. The legacy of Covid-19 with the additional impact of cost-of-living crisis makes for challenging forecasting.
Current forecasts show that we have £949,222 of confirmed income for 2025-2026, leaving a shortfall of £67,820. We currently have bids in for £56,100 which we are waiting to hear back from and will be making further bids throughout 2025-26 for funding to ensure that we can continue to provide our services.
Over the past year, a loss of confidence in accessing statutory funding has prompted a strategic reassessment of our organisation's resilience and long-term sustainability. We will be reviewing our management structure and skills base to ensure we are working as effectively as possible. Alongside this, we are reviewing our earned income streams to identify opportunities for growth. As part of this strategy, we aim to increase our annual turnover by £200,000 over the next two years, reducing our reliance on grant funding and strengthening our financial independence.
## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**
## **Governing document**
Coventry Rape and Sexual Abuse Centre, commonly known as CRASAC, is controlled by its governing document, known as a Constitution. CRASAC is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) and remains a registered charity.
## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees**
When individuals volunteer or are identified as having skill sets that would enhance the Board as a Trustee, they are initially interviewed by the Chief Executive Officer, Natalie Thompson. She will then discuss the application with one or both of the Co-Chair's of the Board, who will conduct a second interview before considering putting them forward for appointment to the Board.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the year ended 31 March 2025**
## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**
## **Organisational structure**
On the 11th November 2021, the Charity became a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) and now governed by a new "Foundation" model Constitution whereby the only voting members are the Charity's Trustees.
The Charity is a CIO having been incorporated in England on 18th August 2004. The Charity is strategically managed by eight trustees who meet as a Board a minimum of quarterly and are supported by the Chief Executive Officer, together with other staff as appropriate to the subjects being discussed at the meeting. The Trustees continue to bring a diverse range of professional skills and experience to CRASAC. Their experience includes child protection, social care, youth services, mental health, management consultancy, clinical psychology, expertise by experience, accountancy, equalities, and fundraising.
The most senior officer of the Charity, the Chief Executive Officer, is Natalie Thompson, who is supported on the Senior Management Team by Deputy Chief Executive Officer, Jenni Muskett, and Senior Management Team by Head of Finance and Operations, Julie Sperling
The services we provided are:
- Counselling
- Crisis and advocacy support with specialist Independent Sexual Violence advisors (ISVA's)
- Therapeutic support
- Specialist Training Service
We are extremely grateful to all staff and volunteers for their energy, time, commitment and dedication, and their resilience and support throughout the years. Without their support CRASAC could not deliver the support to victims/survivors of sexual violence that we currently provide.
CRASAC has been an accredited member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) for 11 years and adheres to and is guided by BACP approved Guidelines and Ethics. The accreditation is on a rolling annual basis and the last submission was August 2024. In addition CRASAC successfully achieved the Rape Crisis England and Wales National Service Standards, for which we are externally accredited in 2019. Work for reaccreditation was completed and due to be finalised in 2025.
## **Induction and training of new trustees**
There is an induction checklist containing key documents which are issued to all new trustees. All new trustees are given an induction coordinated by the Chief Executive Officer and provided with appropriate documentation about the legal role of a trustee alongside organisational policies and other recommended documents that are relevant to their role.
## **Risk management**
The Trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the Charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurances against fraud and error.
The Senior Management Team undertake regular reviews of the operational and strategic risk register, and a strategic risk register is reported to the Board at each Board meeting.

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England & Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES - continued**
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
In so far as the trustees are aware:
- there is no relevant audit information of which the charity's auditors are unaware; and
- the trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditors are aware of that information.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance of, and the integrity of the charity and the financial information included on the charity’s website.

**REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF COVENTRY RAPE AND SEXUAL ABUSE CENTRE**
## **Opinion**
We have audited the financial statements of Coventry Rape And Sexual Abuse Centre (the 'charity') for the year ended 31 March 2025 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
- In our opinion the financial statements:
- give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 31 March 2025 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
## **Basis for opinion**
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
## **Conclusions relating to going concern**
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
## **Other information**
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception**
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
- the information given in the Report of the Trustees is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or
- the charity has not kept adequate accounting records; or
- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Page 11
## **REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF COVENTRY RAPE AND SEXUAL ABUSE CENTRE**
## **Responsibilities of trustees**
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Page 12
**REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF COVENTRY RAPE AND SEXUAL ABUSE CENTRE**
## **Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements**
We have been appointed as auditors under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
Enquiring of management and employees, including obtaining and reviewing supporting documentation, concerning the charity's policies and procedures relating to:-
- Identifying, evaluating, and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance.
- Detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they were aware of any actual, suspected, or alleged fraud and.
- The internal controls established to mitigate risk relating to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations.
We identified areas of law and regulation that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements from our general commercial and sector experience, discussions with management (as required by auditing standards) and discussed with management the policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations.
All identified laws and regulations were communicated throughout the audit team, and they remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit.
The most significant considerations for the charity were as follows:-
- The Charity is subject to laws and regulations that affect the financial statements which include financial reporting legislation, taxation legislation and the Charities Act. We assessed the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our audit procedures concerning items recorded in the financial statements.
- The charity is also subject to other operational laws and regulations where the consequences of non-compliance could have material effect on the amounts or disclosures in the financial statements through imposing fines or withdrawal of funding contracts. Areas where this would have an effect include health and safety, Bribery Act 2010, employment law, data protections and child protection legislation (DBS checks for staff and volunteers).
Auditing standards limit the audit procedures to identifying non-compliance of these laws and regulations to enquiry of management and inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if there is any. Therefore, if a breach of operational regulations is not disclosed to us or evident from relevant correspondence, and audit will not detect the breach.
To identify risk of material misstatement due to fraud, we carried out discussions amongst the audit team to assess areas where and how fraud might occur in the financial statements and any potential indicators. The following areas were identified :-
- Management override of controls through the posting of inappropriate accounting entries or journals - We do not believe there is a fraud risk relating the revenue recognition as the revenue is straightforward, with limited opportunity for manipulation.
We did not identify any additional fraud risks.
We tested the appropriateness of accounting journals and other adjustments made in the accounts preparation based on a risk criteria.
Page 13
**REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF COVENTRY RAPE AND SEXUAL ABUSE CENTRE**
Owing to the inherent limitation of the audit , there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. For example, the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulation is from the events and transaction reflected in the financial statement, the less likely in the inherently limited procedure required by auditing standards would identify it. In addition, as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of non-detection of fraud, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. Our audit procedures are designed to detect material misstatement. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance or fraud and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.
## **Use of our report**
This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 31 March 2025**
## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## **Basis of preparing the financial statements**
The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
## **Income**
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
## **Expenditure**
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Redundancy expenditure is recognised on the same basis as above once the charity demonstrably committed to terminating the employment of an employee or group of employees before the normal retirement date, or to providing termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy.
## **Allocation and apportionment of costs**
Where costs are incurred that relate to several funds, the costs are apportioned on the basis of the expected usage between the funds involved.
## **Tangible fixed assets**
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
|Plant and machinery|- 20% on cost|
|---|---|
|Fixtures and fittings|- 25% on cost|
|Computer equipment|- 33% on cost|
From 1st April 2014, the Trustees have agreed that assets with a cost of less than £5,000 will not be capitalised but will be allocated to Funds as they are purchased.
## **Taxation**
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
## **Fund accounting**
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
## **Hire purchase and leasing commitments**
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued**
## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits**
The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charity's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
## **Grants receivable and basis of deferral of incoming resources**
Grants receivable are recognised when there is an entitlement to request the funds to be paid to the charity, unless the funds relate specifically to certain time periods in which case the income from grants may be deferred and recognised in the appropriate time period.
## **Termination Payments**
Termination payments are contractual payments which are made to an employee if a service or project comes to a end and the charity has to make them redundant. The payments are only made in the event that staff cannot be redeployed to other projects or services within the charity.
## **Basic financial instruments**
Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised
cost using the effective interest method.
