**Report of the Trustees for the year ended 30 September 2024**
The Trustees present their annual report together with the audited financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2024. The Charity is a small company as defined by the Companies Act 2006 and the Trustees have taken the small companies’ exemption in preparing the Trustees’ Report and from preparing a Strategic Report. The Trustees’ Report also contains a directors’ report as required by company law.
## **Structure, governance and management**
## _Governing document_
The Surrey Cricket Board is a private company limited by guarantee governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 27 November 2006. The Memorandum and Articles of Association were amended by a special resolution on 20 November 2017. It is also a charity registered with the Charity Commission.
## _Trustees_
The Trustees in office during the year and up to the date of these accounts were:
R Beckles A Cottis (Treasurer) (Resigned 24[th] November 2023) S Dyson (Chairman) (Resigned 24[th] November 2023) A Harinath D Holder S Keaton S Kent E Lewendon C Lyden-Cowan (Treasurer) N Martyn L Pierce C Potter (Chair) B Qureshi
## _**Staff and management**_
The Trustees meet on a regular basis to deal with the business of the Charity and make the key decisions required for this purpose. The Charity on average over the year employed 31 full-time staff and 33 part-time staff to provide the relevant coaching on the courses that the Charity organises, and other work as required in fulfilling grant based activity. The Charity has five bodies: the Fundraising Group, the Facilities Advisory Committee, Grant Committee, Nomination Committee and the Finance Group which report to the full Trustee meetings. Trustees are appointed as vacancies arise; the Nominations Committee runs the process for identifying appropriate candidates, interviews them and recommends the most suitable candidate to the Trustees for approval and appointment. An induction process is run for Trustees once they are appointed.
Key management personnel are paid a fixed salary as deemed to be appropriate to the size of operations of the Charity. These are reviewed by the Chair.
Administrative services are provided to the Charity by Surrey County Cricket Club Limited on a pro-bono basis and their value cannot be reliably measured. Accordingly, these services are not recognised in the financial statements.
## _**Risk management**_
The Trustees continue to monitor the major risks to which the Charity is exposed. Where necessary, systems and procedures have been formulated to manage the risks of the Charity.
## _**Trustees Indemnities**_
The Charity has made qualifying third-party indemnity provisions for the benefit of its trustees which were made during the year and remain in force at the date of this report.

## **The Surrey Cricket Board**
## **Report of the Trustees** _**(continued)**_ **for the year ended 30 September 2024**
## _**Key risks**_
The Trustees have identified and considered the principal strategic, operational and financial risks to which the Charity is exposed. The three principal risks which Trustees have identified are set out below, together with their plans and strategies for managing those risks.
The principal financial risk is that a substantial element of the Charity’s income comprises short-term grants, whilst its most significant expenditure is what it regards as long-term commitments associated with the costs of its permanent staff. There is therefore a risk that its income streams will not be sufficient to meet its longer-term expenditure commitments, particularly when considered in the current inflationary environment. The Charity prepares annual budgets and regular forecasts throughout the year in order to monitor any imbalances between income and expenditure, and it prepares rolling three-year budgets in order to understand its longer-term exposure to such imbalances. This enables it to take any necessary actions to bring its expenditure into line with its income. The Charity also holds sufficient reserves to enable it to minimise the adverse impact on its business of any such realignment which it considers necessary.
The principal operational risk relates to potential reputational damage that can be suffered by a charity with the profile and activities of The Surrey Cricket Board. We are implementing additional policies locally and in cooperation with the national governing body to mitigate against this. These new policies are designed to complement existing policies to ensure that our sport promotes a fully diverse and inclusive environment and culture. There are potential funding ramifications attached to this reputational risk. The Trustees consider that the Charity has appropriate policies and procedures for its employees, and that it has put in place the necessary safeguards for participants in the Charity’s activities to mitigate against this risk. Additional and complementary policies will be implemented in line with National Governing Body guidance and recommendations. The Surrey Cricket Board is also reliant on cricket remaining a popular sport at a national level to help drive demand for its activities within the catchment area of the Charity. The risk that there is a decline in the sport’s popularity is managed by the Charity working closely with both the governing body, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), and Surrey County Cricket Club in order to maintain the highest possible profile and interest in the sport.
## _**Procedures and policy for grant making**_
The Trustees have a policy, which is communicated to all beneficiaries, that they make only one-off grants with no guarantees of future funding. Such grants are often made with conditions which are required to be met before the grant is released. These criteria are communicated to the beneficiary at the time of awarding the grant.
The Trustees always seek formal feedback on the actual use of the grants given and the achievements made for the purpose of monitoring the quality of grants made.
## **Public benefit**
The Trustees have given regard to the legislative and regulatory requirements for disclosing how the Charity’s objectives (as set out in its governing document) have provided benefit to the public. The Trustees have complied with the duty set out in Section 4 of the Charities Act 2011. This report outlines how the Charity’s achievements during 2023/2024 have benefited the public, either directly or indirectly.

**Report of the Trustees** _**(continued)**_ **for the year ended 30 September 2024**
## **Objectives and activities**
The Charity was incorporated on 27 November 2006 and registered with the Charity Commission on 11 April 2007 with the purpose of promoting community participation in healthy recreation by providing facilities for the playing and development of cricket and other sports capable of improving health for the inhabitants of Surrey and the London Boroughs of Lambeth, Wandsworth and Southwark and their surrounding areas. In the same region, the Charity also seeks to provide facilities for the playing and development of cricket and other games or sports on a recreational basis for the leisure time occupation of such persons who have need for such facilities by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disablement, poverty or social and economic circumstances or for the public at large in the interests of social welfare and with the object of improving their conditions of life. The Charity aims to advance the education of children through its activities in the playing and development of cricket and other sports.
Funds are raised by a variety of sources in the form of donations, grants and revenue generated from courses. The Trustees will be pleased to receive further donations and more information on the Charity's activities can be obtained by contacting The Surrey Cricket Foundation.

**The Surrey Cricket Board**
**Report of the Trustees** _**(continued)**_ **for the year ended 30 September 2024**
## **Overview**
We are pleased to say that we have continued to see growth during the 2024 season. We saw almost 17,000 games of cricket organised in the county this year and significant growth across almost every demographic of the game. Since 2019, we have seen 5,000 more games of cricket played annually in the county. It is particularly pleasing to see the bump we saw being the first sport back after the pandemic has been sustained.
This growth has not been driven by any single area as we have seen all aspects of men’s, women’s and junior cricket demonstrating increases. In the women and girls’ game, Surrey now has more women and girls’ sections within the club structure than any other county in the country. This growth will remain a focus for the Foundation into 2025 and beyond.
The junior side of the game also continues to flourish with the expansion this year of the Surrey Junior Cricket Championship (SJCC) and the ECB’s All Stars Dynamos programme. The SJCC saw over 6,720 games of cricket organised this year and is the single biggest cricket league structure in the country. There was record number of children taking part in the All Stars and Dynamos programmes with 4,208 joining in 2024. This included 31% girls signing up, another record high for us.
All this growth is driven by the incredible dedication of the Foundation staff. Our staff have regularly gone over and above the call of duty this year, supporting the launch of new programmes and new ways of working and we would like to thank each and every one of them for their commitment.
## **Club Support**
The Foundation implemented a new Club Support structure in 2021 which focussed on providing a more dedicated support service to clubs around the county. A team of 3 Cricket Participation Officers now work across specific geographic areas in Surrey. The officers identified 60 key clubs to provide tailored development support. This ranged from large facility developments to smaller projects, such as growing an All Stars programme. We have delivered a strategic roll out of the ECB’s County Grants Fund which will support clubs to enhance their facilities. The Foundation’s agreed a new set of funding priorities looking at both our strategy and the new Surrey facilities. This has helped focus both the Foundation’s own grant giving pot and ECB investment allocated through the grants committee.
## **Senior Leagues**
In 2024, we saw discussions opened with the three major leagues in the county around an official merger and we have since engaged all the leagues in the county in these discussions. I’m delighted to report this merger was voted in by the clubs and the structure will begin in 2025 and cover around 85% of all adult cricket in the county. The league will be known as the Surrey Cricket Championship and to date has 380 teams entered. Delivery of this will be a key priority for next year.
## **Coach Development**
The 2023/2024 Coach Education programme saw twelve ECB Foundation One courses take place at venues around the county, with 161 candidates trained. In 2024 the Foundation was able to run nine coach support courses, training 133 candidates, with the aim that they will go on to assist qualified coaches at their clubs or in other coaching environments. The Foundation also trained 139 new Core Coach coaches. We continued to provide bursaries to reduce the cost of courses for female candidates, those from diverse ethnic backgrounds and those experiencing financial hardship.

**The Surrey Cricket Board**
## **Report of the Trustees** _**(continued)**_ **for the year ended 30 September 2024**
## **Chance to Shine Schools Cricket**
Overall, throughout the 2023/4 academic year 4,431 hours of coaching was provided to 144 primary schools, helping to introduce over 22,199 children to cricket.
We successfully ran:
- 50 primary competitions with a total of 365 teams taking part.
- 14 13 Girls competitions with a total of 55 teams taking part
- 14 U15 Girls competitions with a total of 49 teams taking part
- 15 Year 7&8 Boys competitions with 58 teams taking part
- 15 Year 9 Boys competition with 56 teams taking part.
## **Chance to Shine Street**
The Foundation runs 18 Street projects across south London. We had representative teams across all Youth, Young Adult & Girls Only National Final Competitions.
## **Vauxhall Activity Loop**
Our Vauxhall programme again delivered this year, engaging disadvantaged young people from primary schools around the Kia Oval to take part in week long activities in that local community. We were delighted to expand our programme to a London Loop, delivered in partnership with the other 3 London County Boards and to a Croydon Loop. We will again look to be running this in 2025 as a way of having an impact in our local community for those who have the hardest time in the school holidays.
## **Women and Girls Cricket**
It was another busy year for the Women and Girls programme as we continue to be industry leading across all aspects of the women and girls’ game. 143 women’s teams from 69 clubs took part in our club competitions, along with 393 girls’ teams from some 71 clubs. We saw growth in player numbers at all ages and continue to respond by introducing additional varied playing offers year on year. In 2024 we offered competitive junior cricket formats at every age group from Under 9 to Under 18 and introduced more cup competitions in our drive to align opportunities for players in girlsonly competitions with those playing in open competitions. We continued to expand our women’s league offering alongside women’s festivals to ensure we provide playing opportunities to fulfil the appetite for women’s cricket from those that are new to the game to those that have grown up playing it.
## **Disabilities Cricket**
Our nine Lord’s Taverners Super 1s projects go from strength to strength and this year we were able to focus on having a more profound impact on participants by providing them with an Employability Programme that included CV guidance, interview preparation, mock interviews, and work experience opportunities. We supported Pan-Disability 1[st] and 2[nd] XIs participating in ECB’s D40 Quest and Pursuit Leagues respectively, along with hosting and attending a number of Super 9s softball festivals. Meanwhile our Visually Impaired squad finished 2nds in the National League. Our annual Disability Day attracted its biggest attendance yet with 600 young people taking part at the Kia Oval.
## _**Grants Given by the Surrey Cricket Board**_
Grants totalling £66,440 (2023: £62,150) were awarded by the Charity during the year from the Designated Grants fund to clubs, schools and other institutions, principally in order to support the renovation and development of facilities.

## **Report of the Trustees** _**(continued)**_ **for the year ended 30 September 2024**
## **Achievements, Performance and Future Plans**
The Charity prepares and reports against an annual budget in order to ensure that its projected costs are in line with its projected revenue streams. It regularly reviews the sustainability of these income streams so it can identify potential revenue shortfalls which might impact on the ability of the Charity to meet its objectives.
The future plan for the Charity is to:
- Continue to provide critical support to cricket clubs, leagues & competitions throughout the county allowing them to evolve and innovate to grow participation.
- Increase the opportunities for the next generation to start their lifelong journey in the game.
- Maintain our leading position & momentum in the growth of women’s and girls’ cricket.
- Increase accessibility, engagement and participation for ethnically diverse communities, people with disabilities and those from lower socio-economic groups.
- Pursue with energy being a good neighbour and bringing benefit to our communities.
- Raise the profile of SCF and attract more funds to deliver our strategic objectives.
The Charity does not foresee a change in its purpose in near future.
## **Financial review**
The Charity achieved net income of £105,571 (2023: £175,071) in its Unrestricted General Fund, before transfers of £80,571 (2023: £100,995) to Designated Funds resulting in the General Fund holding a balance of £500,000 at 30 September 2024 (2023: £475,000). Designated Funds hold total balances of £269,407 at 30 September 2024 (2023: £209,866) which have been designated for various purposes as explained in note 11. Restricted Funds hold a balance of £401,122 at 30 September 2024 (2023 £464,572), as set out in note 10, which relate to income received for projects that are to be delivered in 2024/2025.
## **Reserve policy and funding**
The Trustees' policy is to retain a level of Free Reserves which is appropriate to the risks which the Charity faces, in order to provide protection for the Charity against unforeseen adverse financial circumstances. The Charity’s income streams for the next two to three years are yet to be fully confirmed. The Trustees have therefore deemed it appropriate to maintain the levels of Free Reserves at £500,000 at 30 September 2024 to meet any potential shortfalls over this period. Trustees review fund levels at the year end and make appropriate designation where necessary.
## **Going concern**
At the balance sheet date the Surrey Cricket Board held a cash balance of £1,334,542 (2023: £1,362,671) of which £612,643 (2023: £628,735) relates to General Funds. The Charity is in a net current asset position of £1,170,529 (2023: £1,149,438).
The Trustees consider that the Free Reserves of £500,000 is sufficient for the Charity to meet its financial obligations as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months post signing of the Charity’s accounts. The Trustees believe that this level of Free Reserves is also sufficient to protect the Charity in the event that it is required to temporarily curtail or halt activity for reasons beyond its own control. Accordingly, the going concern basis has been adopted for the preparation of the financial statements.
## **Auditor**
Deloitte LLP have expressed their willingness to continue in office as auditor and will be proposed for reappointment.

## **Trustees’ responsibility statement for the year ended 30 September 2024**
## **Trustees’ responsibility statement**
The Trustees (who are also directors of The Surrey Cricket Board for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland".
Company law 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 charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed; and
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company 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 charitable company's auditor is 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 auditor is aware of that information.
The Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

**Independent auditor’s report for the year ended 30 September 2024**
**Independent auditor’s report to the members of The Surrey Cricket Board**
## **Report on the audit of the financial statements**
## **Opinion**
- In our opinion the financial statements of The Surrey Cricket Board (the ‘charitable company’):
- give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company’s affairs as at 30 September 2024 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, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland”; and
- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
We have audited the financial statements which comprise:
- the statement of financial activities (incorporating an income & expenditure account);
- the balance sheet;
- the cash flow statement; and
- the related notes 1 to 20.
The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
## **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 auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report.
We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the Financial Reporting Council’s (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 charitable company’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.

## **Independent auditor’s report (Continued) for the year ended 30 September 2024**
## **Other information**
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. 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.
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 course of 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.
## **Responsibilities of Trustees**
As explained more fully in the Trustees’ responsibilities statement, the Trustees’ (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purpose of company law) 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 charitable company’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 charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
## **Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements**
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 an auditor's report 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.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the FRC’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
## **Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud**
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.

**The Surrey Cricket Board**
## **Independent auditor’s report (Continued) for the year ended 30 September 2024**
We considered the nature of the charitable company’s industry and its control environment and reviewed the charitable company’s documentation of their policies and procedures relating to fraud and compliance with laws and regulations. We also enquired of management and the trustees about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities including those that are specific to the charitable company’s business sector.
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the charitable company operates in, and identified the key laws and regulations that:
- had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. These included UK Companies Act, UK Charities Act and pension legislation; and
- do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with which may be fundamental to the charitable company’s ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty. These included the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), employment laws and charitable commission regulations.
We discussed among the audit engagement team regarding the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the organisation for fraud and how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements.
As a result of performing the above, we identified the greatest potential for fraud in the classification of donations received and our procedures performed to address the risk are described below:
- Agreed a sample of donations classified as ‘general’ to supporting documentation to verify that no designations or restrictions exist to gain assurance over the appropriateness of classification.
In common with all audits under ISAs (UK), we are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override. In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, we tested the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments; assessed whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias; and evaluated the business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business.
In addition to the above, our procedures to respond to the risks identified included the following:
- reviewing financial statement disclosures by testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with provisions of relevant laws and regulations described as having a direct effect on the financial statements;
- performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud;
- enquiring of management concerning actual and potential litigation and claims, and instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations; and
- reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.
## **Report on other legal and regulatory requirements**
## **Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006**
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
- the information given in the trustees’ report, which includes the directors’ report prepared for the purposes of company law for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the directors’ report included within the trustees’ report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

## **The Surrey Cricket Board**
## **Independent auditor’s report (Continued) for the year ended 30 September 2024**
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified any material misstatements in the directors’ report included within the trustees’ report.
## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception**
Under the Companies Act 2006 we are required to report in respect of the following matters if, in our opinion:
- adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- certain disclosures of Trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
- the trustees were not entitled to take advantage of the small companies’ exemption in preparing the trustees’ report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report.
We have nothing to report in respect of these matters.
## **Use of our report**
This report is made solely to the charitable company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s 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 charitable company and the charitable company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

**The Surrey Cricket Board**
## **Notes forming part of the financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2024**
## **1. COMPANY AND CHARITABLE STATUS**
The Surrey Cricket Board, a public benefit entity, is incorporated in England and Wales as a company limited by guarantee not having a share capital. It is also a registered charity. The principal activities of the Surrey Cricket Board are outlined on page 3 of these financial statements.
## **Basis of preparation**
The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention, in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP 2019)” 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; and the Companies Act 2006.
## **Going concern**
At the balance sheet date the Surrey Cricket Board held a cash balance of £1,334,542 (2023: £1,362,671) of which £612,643 (2023: £628,735) relates to General funds. The charity is in a net current asset position of £1,170,529 (2023: £1,149,438).
The Trustees consider that the Free Reserves of £500,000 is sufficient for the Charity to meet its financial obligations as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months post signing of the Charity’s accounts. The Trustees believe that this level of Free Reserves is also sufficient to protect the Charity in the event that it is required to temporarily curtail or halt activity for reasons beyond its own control. Accordingly, the going concern basis has been adopted for the preparation of the financial statements.
## **Income**
All monetary donations, grants, course income and other income are recognised as income when the Charity is entitled to them, any performance conditions have been met, they can be measured reliably and receipt is probable except when they relate to a future accounting period, in which case they are included in creditors as deferred income.
Donations under Gift Aid together with the associated income tax recoveries are credited as income when the donations are received. All income is generated within the United Kingdom

## **Notes forming part of the financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2024 (** _**continued)**_
## **1. COMPANY AND CHARITABLE STATUS (CONTINUED)**
## **Financial instruments**
The Charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.
## **Expenditure**
Expenditure, which is charged on an accruals basis, is allocated between:
- expenditure incurred in fundraising activities; and
- expenditure incurred directly in the fulfilment of the Charity's objectives (charitable activities).
Support costs (including governance costs) are apportioned between these activities on an estimate of the time expended on these activities by members of staff.
## **Fund accounting**
Restricted funds are to be used for specified purposes laid down by the donor. Expenditure for those purposes is charged to the fund.
Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for expenditure on the general objectives of the Charity.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds which have been designated for specific purposes by the Trustees.
## **Pension costs**
Contributions to the Charity's defined contribution pension scheme are charged to the statement of financial activities in the year in which they become payable. Pension costs are allocated between funds and activities on time basis.
## **Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty**
In the application of the Charity’s accounting policies the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The Trustees do not consider there are any critical judgements or sources of estimation uncertainty requiring disclosure.
