OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The main objective is to advance the education and preserve and protect the physical and mental health of vulnerable and disadvantaged people. The Charityy's aim is to develop projects which allow these people to learn new skills, to encounter others with similar problems and to reaquaint people with the community. Each project endeavours to elimiate the stigma associated with mental health problems. The charity is open to all people over the age of eighteen with mental health disabilities, and their carers. It provides a safe environment for advice, information, social and educational activities.the Charity Commissions guidance on public benefit has been given due regard reviewing our aims and activities to further our charitable purposes.

Charity overview, in this year, charity events and client activities produced 79% of total income, the rest was received from a variety of generous donors. The overall result was a satisfying surplus of £19612

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Hope to Grow - The gardening services continue to be well regarded and there is a waiting list for their services. Hope to Bake - A popular workshop for people with a wide variety of skills, the kitchen is still open 4 days a week. Hope to Cycle - This is financially successful, training workshops in Sherborne, Shaftesbury and a sister enterprise in Bournemouth. Community front room - The service commenced in 2020 and is well used and is fulfilling a need in the community

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The trustees aim as last year for a level of at least 3 months payroll costs and this has been achieved

PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS

We will continue to consolidate the established projects, encouraging each enterprise to contribute financially as much as possible to the charity as a whole, but due to the nature of the client base this will always be a challenge. We will continue to increase awareness of the charity's activities in order to secure donations to support our provisions of much needed opportunities for those experiencing difficulties through mental health.

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by Companies Act 2006

Designated funds These are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular purposes. Revaluation funds These are unrestricted funds which include a revaluation reserve representing the restatement of investment assets at their market values. Restricted funds These are available for use subject to restrictions imposed by the donor or through terms of an appeal.

Shaftesbury & District Carers Association Notes to the Accounts

Expenditure

Recognition of Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis. Expenditure includes any VAT which expenditure cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.

Expenditure on These comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income, fundraising raising funds trading costs and investment management costs. Expenditure on These comprise the costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of its activities and charitable activities services in the furtherance of its objects, including the making of grants and governance costs.

Grants payable All grant expenditure is accounted for on an actual paid basis plus an accrual for grants that have been approved by the trustees at the end of the year but not yet paid.

Governance costs These include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the Charity, including any audit/independent examination fees, costs linked to the strategic management of the Charity, together with a share of other administration costs.

Other expenditure These are support costs not allocated to a particular activity.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life:

useful life:
Plant and equpiment 25% Reducing balance
Motor vehicles 25% Reducing balance
Fixtures and fittings 25% Reducing balance

Freehold investment property

Investment properties are measured initially at cost and subsequently at fair value at each balance sheet date and are not depreciated. All gains or losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise.

Stocks

Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Donated items of stock are recognised at fair value which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay for the items on the open market.

Trade and other debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Page 11

Shaftesbury & District Carers Association Notes to the Accounts

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings or current liabilities. In the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the company's cash management.

Trade and other creditors

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

Research and development

Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred.

Foreign currencies

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are recorded at the rate of exchange on the date that the transaction occurred.

All exchange differences are are taken into account in arriving at net income/expenditure.

Leased assets

Where the charity enters into a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease.

Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to charity are classified as operating leases.

Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the charity at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet date as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the charity's policy on borrowing costs. Assets held under finance leases are depreciated in the same way as owned assets.

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis.

Pension costs

The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the company has no further payments obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds.

Shaftesbury & District Carers Association Notes to the Accounts

Receipt of donated goods, facilities and services

All donated goods, facilities and services received are recognised within incoming resources and expenditure at an estimate of the value to the charity.
