Policies and procedures
adopted for the induction
and training of trustees
Para 1.51 No new Trustees were recruited during the
year, however the trust generally recruits
trustees by personal recommendation,
inviting them to observe a board meeting then
holding a discussion with the proposed new
and existing Trustees to assess suitability.
The charity’s organisational
structure and any wider
network with which the
charity works
Para 1.51 The Board now consists of two Trustees, Mrs
Patricia Noyce and Mr Paul Susans.
The Board met regularly throughout the
period, normally with the Directors of STEP
(UK) Ltd in attendance. The field director and
the operations director for Step joined most
meetings in person or via video link.
Each Board meeting included an update on
projects supported by the charity, together
with information about the activities of the
volunteers we support. This enabled the
Board to ensure that the aims of our support
are achieved for the benefit of children and
families in one of the most troubled regions of
the world.
The Board also reviewed the financial affairs
of the charity at each meeting, ensuring that
incoming resources were applied
appropriately to the aims of the charity. The
Trustees’ reserves policy is to ensure that
funds are available for known needs and a
contingency for unexpected demands.

Note 2 Accounting policies

2.2 INCOME

This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.

Recognition of income
· it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and
• the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Offsetting
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or
permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.
Grants and donations
Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition
criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
• the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
Tax reclaims on
donations and gifts
Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor.
Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is
treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the
terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
Contractual income and
performance related
grants
This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or
services or met the performance related conditions.
Donated goods
Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be
exchanged) unless impractical to do so.
In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent
that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant
only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP).
Legacies
Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been
grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the
estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity
or have been met.
Government grants
The charity has received government grants in the reporting period
Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations
when receivable.
Donated services and
facilities
Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of
the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably.
Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income
with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in
the SOFA.
The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be
the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt.
In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an
expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution.
Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the
expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income
from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance
sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading
activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading
activities'.
Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets
and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.
Income from membership
subscriptions
Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations
and Legacies.
Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other
benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as
income from charitable activities.
Support costs
The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.
Volunteer help
The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described
in the trustees’ annual report.
Income from interest,
royalties and dividends
This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can
be measured reliably.

2.4 ASSETS
Intangible fixed assets
Heritage assets
Settlement of insurance
claims
Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition
criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other
income in the SoFA.
Investment gains and
losses
This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and
any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the
year.
Grants with performance
conditions

service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the
recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output.

realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be
recognised.

constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the
obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.

costs
Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support.
Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its
compliance with regulation and good practice.
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost
categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs
by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.

maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments
Stocks and work in
progress
Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net
realisable value.
Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value
based on the service potential provided by items of stock.
Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract.
The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have
physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody
or legal rights. The amortisation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.5

They are valued at cost.
Investments
Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are
valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year

measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment.
Debtors
Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at
settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently,
they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received.
