## **THE PEACE & HOPE TRUST** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**_ 

The trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021. 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "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)". 

## **Objectives and activities** 

The objects of the Peace and Hope Trust are the relief of poverty and sickness, the advancement of education and  to further such charitable objects as the trustees in their absolute discretion think fit anywhere in the world, particularly in developing countries including Nicaragua. In practice this manifests as a focus on education and health. 

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance on public benefit issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake. 

The Trust was established with objects that are for the public benefit. The trustees recognise their responsibility for the continued monitoring of the public benefit of the Charity’s activities and for the safeguarding of vulnerable people wherever it operates. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

The Charity works through teams of British volunteers together with a small number of paid staff in Nicaragua, through a local NGO “Centro Cosecha”. It pays a small number of UK and Nicaraguan part-time workers and contractors when volunteers cannot be recruited. The Trust rents a shop selling donated goods in the UK, and is loaned warehouse space to hold goods awaiting sale or for despatch to Nicaragua. It owns a small plot of land in Managua. It does not pay professional fund-raisers. 

Having decided some years ago that its mission house “Casa Mary Jane” in Managua was under-utilised, the house was sold in January 2020 for $110,000 to a US-based mission charity “Bridge to Grace”. The Trustees plan to use the funds to pursue the Trust’s objectives in coming years. 

The Trust had been sending aid containers of donated medical and educational supplies and equipment to Nicaragua but was unable to do so for the last 2 years. We have sent donated hospital goods to the Philippines, as part of a project led by Gorsley Baptist Church. 

The Trust again purchased new school uniforms and materials for some 300 children around Bluefields. Similar work on Ometepe is supported by the Trust, focussed on helping an expanding group of schools around Urbaite. We also continued to support a number of children's feeding programmes, art and craft initiatives, vocational training, support for churches, and a programme in Granada to rescue vulnerable girls from sexual abuse. This programme is still looking for wider sponsorship to stabilise its over-stretched operations. 

We have a sound relationship with Nicaragua’s Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Health and with the local Alcaldia (City Council) in Bluefields to identify future projects and to ensure that our work is aligned closely to real local needs. We are gratified and humbled by the local community support which our activities generate. Our volunteers continue to find new ways of raising funds in the UK to help our work.

The Trust has been able to adapt lo Circumstances around the Coronavirus and maintains several projects in

satisfactory, as the operations of the charity do not require substantial reserves. 11 is therefore their policy to
keep a minimum amount in reserves, sufficient to maintain fixed assets and meet current obligations as well
as emergency contingencies. The Charity is dependent upon the regular ongoing support of its donors for the
conlirsuation of ils work.

## **THE PEACE & HOPE TRUST** 

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Charity information** 

The Peace & Hope Trust is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Little Llanafon Farm, Dorstone, Hereford, Herefordshire, HR3 6AT. 

## **1.1 Accounting convention** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document,  the Companies Act 2006 and "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)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102. 

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows. 

The financial statements are prepared in sterling , which is the functional currency of the charity.  Monetary a mounts  in these financial statements are  rounded to the nearest £. 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. 

## **1.2 Going concern** 

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees  continue  to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. 

## **1.3 Charitable funds** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives. 

Designated funds comprise funds which have been set aside at the discretion of the trustees for specific purposes. The purposes and uses of the designated funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity. 

## **1.4 Income** 

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received. 

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

## **THE PEACE & HOPE TRUST** 

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

**(Continued)** 

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset. 

## **1.5 Expenditure** 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to that category.  Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources. 

Costs of generating funds comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income and the costs of trading for fundraising purposes. 

## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets  are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. 

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases: 

Land Not depreciated Computer and office equipment 33.33% straight line Motor vehicles 25.00% straight line 

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in  net income/(expenditure) for the year. 

## **1.7 Impairment of fixed assets** 

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any ) . 

## **1.8 Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. 

## **1.9 Financial instruments** 

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. 

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's  balance sheet  when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

## **THE PEACE & HOPE TRUST** 

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **(Continued)** 

## _**Basic financial assets**_ 

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at  recoverable amount. 

## _**Basic financial liabilities**_ 

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price and are subsequently carried at  payable amount. 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of  operations  from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amo unt payable. 

## _**Derecognition of financial liabilities**_ 

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled. 

## **1.10 Taxation** 

The  Company is a registered charity and is not subject to Income Tax on its current activities. 

## **1.11 Employee benefits** 

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received. 

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits. 

## **2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements** 

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount 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 where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

Land represents land and property held in Nicaragua.  It is stated at cost less impairment. 

The charity built a house “Casa Mary Jane” in Managua, in 2006. Due to ongoing political and economic volatility the cost of the house has been fully impaired in previous financial statements. The property, which had been for sale for 4 years, without serious interest, sold in February 2021 and the proceeds net of sale costs are included within 'other income'.

**(Continued)** 

_Moringa project_ - A project to develop Moringa, the 'Miracle Tree', and to seek ways of realising its potential for the benefit of needy communities. Additional expenses from 2017 have been identified, which were originally treated as "unrestricted" expenditure. This has been corrected through a transfer as a non material adjustment. 

_Mary Anne Vocational Centre -_ The Charity continues to support tutors at the Mary Anne Vocational Centre, built in memory of a former team member, through the application of regular donations.  The centre provides free tuition in a range of subjects. 

_Other Mission Support -_ Specific gifts for particular aspects of mission outreach are passed on in accordance with the wishes of the donors. 

_Mother and Toddler groups_ - In 2017, three groups were inaugurated in the poorest districts of Bluefields, Nicaragua, with the help of the Trust.  The plan is that these group are led and controlled by the mothers themselves and are self-sustaining.  Over time only one group (at Santa Rosa) has flourished. The Trust shall continue to monitor their on-going progress, effectiveness and sustainability and if found to be successful, shall assist in the set-up of additional groups in the future. _Warehouse Project -_ to buy land for building a storage warehouse 

_School Building Project -_ to build a school in Las Brenas 

_ECHO_ - The ECHO grant was provided to pay for shipping of containers to Nicaragua and, by subsequent amendment, to the Philippines also.
