**MAGIC BUS UK** FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
## **MAGIC BUS**
## **Our Vision**
A world where children break out of poverty and lead fulfilling, rewarding lives, contributing positively to their community and to the world around them.
## **Our Mission**
Magic Bus will take children and youth on a journey from a childhood of abject poverty and challenges such as child marriage and child labour, to a fulfilling life with a respectable livelihood.
Working with their communities and families, Magic Bus will deliver a programme that teaches life skills and resilience.
Working with their schools, Magic Bus will ensure that they attend school and that their education is optimised.
As these children become adults, Magic Bus will work with them to ensure they have the right employability skills, get jobs and contribute to their communities.
Magic Bus works with some of the world’s poorest children and young people, taking them from a childhood full of challenges to a life with meaningful livelihoods. We equip young people with the skills and knowledge they need to grow up and move out of poverty.
The Magic Bus programme consists of:
- **Life Skills Education** – teaching children and young people team work, problem solving, learning to learn and communication that enables them to become resilient.
- **Education Enhancement –** helping children improve their basic literacy, numeracy and overall grades in school.
- **Community Connect –** engaging with parents and the whole community to ensure they support the dreams and aspirations of their children.
- **Employability Skills Education –** teaching young people spoken English, financial & digital literacy and career counselling that helps them identify their strengths and weaknesses.
- **Livelihood Connect –** matching young people to jobs with placements within the retail, IT, banking/financial services and e-commerce sectors.
## **Magic Bus India 2021/22**
In 2021/22 Magic Bus supported 400,000 children across 24 states in India.
The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdowns have been devastating on the lives of people around the world. In early spring 2021, as a second wave of Covid 19 engulfed the country, India became the epicentre of the global pandemic, overwhelming the healthcare system. Continued lockdowns have brought stress and anxiety to an untold number of families as they have lost their livelihoods. The continued closure of schools and other academic institutions over nearly two years has severely impacted young people’s academic and social education and further widened an already yawning education gap.
With existing reach into some of the most marginalised communities across India, Magic Bus was again well placed to work with government agencies to provide support within the communities that we operate. In early 2021, Magic Bus conducted over 110 Covid-19 awareness and vaccination drives, undertook sanitation campaigns in 242 communities and assisted with the placement of oxygen concentrators at District Health Centres. Due to existing networks, Magic Bus was able to swiftly distribute dry ration kits, cooked meals and medical equipment such as masks, concentrated oxygen cylinders and oximeters to some of the worst affected families.
In June 2021, Magic Bus conducted a telephonic survey with 4,605 parents and students across 21 states & 39 districts. The survey revealed that:
- 19% of children were engaged in various wage earning and unlikely to return to school post pandemic. Among them 54% were boys.
- While 45% reported that they do not get any support for education from the family, 62% of the children reported that they had lost interest in studies.
**Page 2**
**MAGIC BUS UK** FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
## **MAGIC BUS**
- Around 11% reported an increase in being hit physically by someone in their family and 27% reported an increase in verbal abuse.
- Among 2,300 girls covered in the survey, 41% mentioned that they did not have enough time to spend for school learning as they were increasingly involved in household chores.
- 21% of the girls did not have mobile phones and 57% did not have access to learning resources.
In response to the survey, Magic Bus initiated the continuum of learning for existing beneficiaries across various programmes. This ensured that programme teams, through virtual sessions and one to one contact, engaged with parents and children, as well as schools, to prioritise learning and reduce the widening learning gap during school closures. Magic Bus mentors ensured that the children felt supported to stay engaged with learning and stayed connected with schools despite the closures. Children and parents have also been encouraged to create study corners – – a dedicated study space within the home to encourage and support remote learning. To date, 6,821 families have created study spaces.
Magic Bus also launched Urban & Rural Recovery Programmes to address loss of livelihood within our communities. The stress associated with loss of livelihood with a household is more likely to lead to the threat of abuse, and children being removed from education to perform chores around the house or being sent out to earn a wage. To date, Magic Bus has been able to link more than 18,017 households from marginalised communities across 17 districts to government schemes and entitlements to help with loss of income and address health, nutrition and food security needs. Nearly 30,000 adolescents and young people from these households have also been supported to continue their learning in schools, and around 12,000 young people were helped to find jobs.
Magic Bus highlights from the period under review include:
- Magic Bus was identified as the government engagement partner for the Life Skill Collaborative, which is a consortium of 18 agencies focusing on developing measurement tools to capture the voices from the ground pertaining to life skills. Working with the government in the state of Mizoram, Magic Bus will input Life Skills curriculum within the state which will then feed into the National Education Policy.
- Magic Bus has been chosen as the implementation partner in the first-of-its-kind Impact Bond for Skilling by the National Skill Development Corporation, which shares the vision of an ‘employment ready’ young India. The Skill Impact Bond will benefit 50,000 young people (including 60% women and girls) in India over four years.
- 6,000 Magic Box learning kits, including writing paper, workbooks, pens & pencils, were distributed throughout communities to help support learning among children.
- Around 29,144 life skills and learning engagement sessions were held through virtual and in-person modes. The sessions focused on core life skills such as managing self, learning to learn, problem solving, team work and communication. These sessions enable children to become more resilient and have higher aspirations and ambitions.
## **Magic Bus Bangladesh 2021/22**
The programme continues with our implementing partner, Eco Social Development Organisation, in the Thakurgaon and Panchagarh districts of Bangladesh. The programme is operational in 18 public schools working with 3,045 children.
During the period, the team identified five girls who, due to the hardship and loss of earnings faced by families because of the pandemic, had been removed from school and were to be forced to marry early. Following engagement with, and support of the families, these girls were successfully re-enrolled back into school. In addition, 10 children vigilant groups with over 150 members have been formed within the communities actively support and promote children’s rights and protection

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
## **MAGIC BUS UK**
## **TRUSTEES’ REPORT**
The Trustees, who are directors for the purposes of company law, have pleasure in presenting their annual report for the purposes of the Charities Act 2011 and Sections 415 to 419 of the Companies Act 2006, together with the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021. The Trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” (FRS 102) in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.
## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**
Magic Bus UK is a charity established as a company limited by guarantee (no.6580717) which was incorporated on 30 April 2008 and registered as a charity on 30 June 2008. It took on the activities and assets of The Magic Bus UK, which was registered as a charity in 2003, with effect from 1 July 2008.
The charity is governed by a memorandum and articles of association dated 30 April 2008 as amended on 27 June 2008 and 16 July 2014.
In June 2019, Magic Bus UK signed an Affiliation and Licence Agreement with Magic Bus Global setting out the rights and obligations of Magic Bus UK as a full member of Magic Bus Global and including the use of Magic Bus Global’s Intellectual Property Rights by Magic Bus UK for which it will pay an annual licence fee
Governance is exercised by a board of Trustees, the members of which are selected on the basis of the skills and experience that they bring to the governance of the charity. Members are appointed by a resolution of the Trustees then in post. The Trustees meet four times a year, more frequently if required.
On appointment, new Trustees are provided with copies of relevant Charity Commission guidance and are given an introduction to the charity’s activities by the Director, other Trustees and the Company Secretary. Trustees are provided with training as and when required.
Day to day management of the charity is delegated by the Trustees to the Director (currently pending appointment) and their team, whilst Trustees remain closely involved in monitoring their work, receiving regular reports, giving guidance and authorising transactions.
The charity works closely with the Magic Bus India Foundation - “Magic Bus India” - a not for profit organisation registered in India; however the two organisations are not under common control. The Director has responsibilities for ensuring effective liaison with Magic Bus India but the main focus of their work is the day to day management of the UK charity. This work will continue and all funds donated for Magic Bus programmes in India, Myanmar and Bangladesh will be used accordingly.
The Trustees have considered the major risks potentially affecting the charity and have developed policies aimed at mitigating those risk. The current key risks that Magic Bus UK faces are around financial stability following the Covid 19 pandemic and current inflationary macroeconomic conditions. The current cost-of-living crisis being experienced globally is also likely to curtail income next year to some extent. Raising money for core expenditure is a continual challenge but fundraising for our work in India obviously comes at a financial cost. We have a wide-ranging approach to raising unrestricted funds that give us the ability to meet the direct costs that our fundraising incurs. We are also growing our funding portfolio from institutional donors which allows us the ability to charge specific running costs to budget lines.
Trustees keep under review and ensure practices adopted by the charity are ethical. Magic Bus UK does not contact individuals through face-to-face or telephone fundraising. Magic Bus communicates with donors if it has their permission to do so as per current GDPR legislation.
In March 2022, Magic Bus was delighted to bring on board a permanent, full time Director of Fundraising, Nila James, to lead the UK office and drive the fundraising strategy. Very sadly, Nila passed away suddenly in September 2022 and the Board would like to extend their deepest condolences to her family. The recruitment process for a UK Director has resumed.
The remuneration of key management personnel is reviewed and set by the Trustees by reference to similar organisations.

## **TRUSTEES’ REPORT**
## **MAGIC BUS UK – OBJECTS AND ROLE**

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE**
## **Fundraising**
For the year ended 31 March 2022, gross income was £522,525, a significant increase from £424,167 in 2020/21. The biggest increase came from unrestricted donations.
As in previous years, the revenue was raised from strategic partnerships, corporate partners, trusts and foundations, events and donations from individuals.
## **Individuals**
In June, Magic Bus UK held its first event since the end of the COVID restrictions: _The Magic Bus UK Summer Soiree._ Hosted at Home House this evening of drinks, canapés and conversation was an opportunity for Magic Bus UK to reconnect with our major donors and supporters.
## **Strategic Partners**
Magic Bus UK was delighted to continue our partnership with City Football Group and secured a grant to deliver the Water Goals project in Bangalore, a Healthy Goals project in Kolkata and the Water Heroes Academy in Mumbai
Bernard Lewis Family Charitable Trust generously continued to support the work of Magic Bus UK as well as supporting the operation of a Livelihood Centre in India.
Magic Bus UK was delighted to continue our partnership with Wimbledon Foundation supporting 3,255 children in communities in Delhi and introducing tennis skills into the curriculum as well as supporting an employability programme.
## **Corporates, Trusts and Foundations**
Magic Bus UK was delighted to continue our partnership with the British Asian Trust to support the programme in Bangladesh.

## **Public benefit**
In planning and implementing the charity’s activities, the Trustees have at all times kept in mind the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. The overriding aim has been to provide financial support for the work of Magic Bus amongst underprivileged children, in particular in India, directed towards the relief of poverty and other need, and the advancement of education, health and community development. While recognising that the scale of the need is such that Magic Bus can only reach a minority of those who could benefit, the Trustees are satisfied that access to the Magic Bus programmes is not restricted in any other way, and they have actively supported the project to expand those programmes to areas across India and in other countries including Myanmar and Bangladesh.
## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**
For the year ending 31 March 2022 the charity’s total income amounted to £522,525. £405,094 of this was expended on projects in India, Myanmar and Bangladesh. Total expenditure for the year was £481,019 leaving a surplus of £41,506 for the year. Total funds at the end of the year were £164,331 of which £6,889 was restricted. The level of unrestricted reserves for the year has increased to £157,442.
Normally the Trustees would consider the charity’s desired level of reserves to be equivalent to three months operating costs or approximately £35,000 based on the current cost base. This year however, given the continued uncertainty around the fundraising landscape, the Trustees feel it prudent to retain a slightly higher reserve of £77,000. In addition, Trustees wish to hold reserves equivalent to £60,000 to cover the costs for the annual fundraising gala. Due to stringent cost management over the past two years, including closing the head office, as at March 2022 Magic Bus is exceeding this total reserve by just over £20,000. However it is anticipated that core expenditure in 2022/23 will increase following the hire of a new Fundraising Director and associated fundraising costs, as well as potentially leasing office space.
The Trustees are very conscious of the current and future risk to income and fundraising potential brought by the cost of living crisis. Cash flow is being closely monitored by the Treasurer on a monthly basis with a 12 month cash flow projection being presented to the wider Board quarterly.
The main sources of funding are as set out above in the summary of activities, and in the notes to the accounts.
For part of the year under review, Magic Bus UK directly supported part of the salary of Matthew Spacie, who works globally to capacity build and develop the organisation. This is considered a direct charitable activity.
Magic Bus UK does not make any investments.

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES**
The Trustees (who are also directors of Magic Bus UK for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
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, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.
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 or 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.
## **APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITOR**
Blue Spire Limited expressed their willingness to continue as auditors to the charity. The members of Magic Bus UK have resolved to dispense with the requirement of members to reappoint the company’s auditors.
This report has been prepared having taken advantage of the small companies exemption in the Companies Act 2006.
Approved by the Trustees and signed on their behalf.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
## **MAGIC BUS UK**
## **INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT**
## **Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Magic Bus UK**
## **Opinion**
We have audited the financial statements of Magic Bus UK (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows 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, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 _The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland_ (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
- give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company’s affairs as at 31 March 2022, 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 Companies Act 2006.
## **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 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**
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where:
- the Trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate; or
- the Trustees have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the charitable company’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
## **Other information**
The Trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Trustees’ report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report 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 there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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.
## **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 (incorporating the directors’ report) for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the directors’ report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
**Page 8**
**MAGIC BUS UK** FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
## **INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT**
## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception**
In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors’ report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you 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 directors’ 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 prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies’ regime and take advantage of the small companies’ exemptions in preparing the directors’ report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report.
## **Responsibilities of Trustees**
As explained more fully in the statement of Trustees’ responsibilities, the Trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes 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.
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:
Based on our understanding of the Charity and the industry in which it operates, we identified that the principal laws and regulations that directly affect the financial statements to be the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011. We assessed the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statement items.
In addition, the Charity is subject to many other laws and regulations where the consequences of non-compliance could have a material effect on amounts or disclosures in the financial statements, for instance through the imposition of fines or litigation. As a grant and donation funded grantmaker there is a limitation to areas most likely to have such an effect with fundraising from the public and employment law the only potential areas. Auditing standards limit the required audit procedures to identify non-compliance with these laws and regulations to enquiry of the trustees and other management and inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence if any.
In response to these risks the audit procedures performed by the engagement team included:
- Discussions with management, including consideration of known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud and review of legal and professional fees;
- Reading minutes of meeting of those charged with governance
**Page 9**
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
## **MAGIC BUS UK**
## **INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT**
- Challenging assumptions made by management in their significant accounting estimates in particular those relating to provisions.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the FRC's website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditors/auditassurance/auditor-s-responsibilities-for-the-audit-of-the-fi/description-of-the-auditor%E2%80%99s-responsibilitiesfor This description forms part of our auditor’s report..
## **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.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
## **MAGIC BUS UK**
## **ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## **General information, scope and basis of the financial statements**
Magic Bus UK is a registered charity, established as a private company limited by guarantee in England with the company number 6580717. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £10 per member of the charity. The address of the registered and principal office is given in the charity information page of these financial statements and the nature of the charity’s operations and principal activities are detailed in the trustees' report.
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention. The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.
## **Income**
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the charity is legally entitled to the income after any performance conditions have been met, the amount can be measured reliably and it is probable that the income will be received.
For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of performance before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred until those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled.
Income from trading activities includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities to raise funds for the charity. Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and services in order to raise funds and is recognised when entitlement has occurred.
Donated facilities and donated professional services are recognised in income at their fair value when their economic benefit is probable, it can be measured reliably and the charity has control over the item. Fair value is determined on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity. For example the amount the charity would be willing to pay in the open market for such facilities and services. A corresponding amount is recognised in expenditure.
Investment income in the form of bank interest is recognised as the charity’s right to receive payment is established.
## **Expenditure**
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payments to third parties, it is probable that the settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
It is categorised under the following headings:
● Raising funds; includes costs associated with seeking donations and fundraising events and initiatives
● Charitable activities; includes all costs incurred in undertaking activities that further the charity's aims for the benefit of beneficiaries
Grants payable to third parties are within the charitable objectives. Where unconditional grants are offered, this is accrued as soon as the recipient is notified of the grant, as this gives rise to a reasonable expectation that the recipient will receive the grants. Where grants are conditional relating to performance then the grant is only accrued when any unfulfilled conditions are outside of the control of the charity.
## _Support costs allocation_
Support costs are those that assist the work of the charity but do not directly represent charitable activities and include office costs, governance costs, administrative payroll costs. They are incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity. Where support costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources. The analysis of these costs is included in note 7.
## _Governance costs_
Governance costs are any costs associated with the strategic as opposed to day-to-day management of the charity’s activities. These costs include emoluments for trusteeship, the cost of charity employees involved in meetings with trustees and the cost of any administrative support provided to the trustees such as external audit, legal advice for trustees and costs associated with constitutional and statutory requirements.

**MAGIC BUS UK** FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
## **ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## **Employee benefits**
When employees have rendered service to the charity, short-term employee benefits to which the employees are entitled are recognised at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for that service.
Redundancy and termination payments are recorded as an expense in the financial statements as they fall due with any amounts unpaid at the balance sheet date accrued.
The charity operates a defined contribution plan for the benefit of its employees. Contributions are expensed as they become payable.
## **VAT**
The charity is not registered for VAT and cannot therefore recover any VAT incurred on expenditure. Irrecoverable VAT is accounted for within the expenditure category to which the underlying costs relate.
## **Taxation**
The Charity is an exempt Charity within the meaning of schedule 3 of the Charities Act 2011 and is considered to pass the tests set out in sections 466 to 493 Corporation Tax Act 2010 (CTA 2010), as such no income tax is payable on the Charity's activities.
## **Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year**
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure.
## **Cash and cash equivalents**
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash at bank and in hand available for the charity's use.
## **Funds**
## _Unrestricted funds_
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
## _Restricted funds_
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the note 16 of these financial statements.
## **Going concern**
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.
