Notes to the accounts

For the year ended 31 July 2023

• 1.5. Fund accounting Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors. Restricted funds are accounted for separately to each other and to the core funding of the company.

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the directors in the furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

1.6. Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings: ;

• e Costs of raising funds comprise the costs of trading.

• e Expenditure on charltable activities includes the costs of all activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs,

|

|

The Charity is not VAT registered and irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

• 1.7. Allocation of support costs

Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs which support the Charities activities.

Due to the level of materiality of allocating support costs to the costs of fundraising, these costs have all been allocated to charitable activities. A full breakdown of all costs related to Charitable Activities has been provided in Note 4.

1.8. Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost Jess depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its expected useful life (except as detailed below) as follows:

Computer Equipment 33% on the straight line basis Furniture and Fixtures 25% on the straight line basis Office Equipment 25% on the straight line basis

Notes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 31 July 2023

• 1.9. 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.

1.10. Cash at bank and in hand

• Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

1.11. Creditors and provisions

• 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.

1.12. Taxation

• In accordance with Paragraph 1 of Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010, the Charity is a charity for tax purposes and is generally exempt from Income Tax and Capital Gains Tax, but not from VAT. Irrecoverable VAT is included in the cost of those items to which it relates .

|

2. Income and Expenditure Account

1. The company is a charity and so achievements cannot be measured by normal commercial criteria. Accordingly, the Directors consider that it would be inappropriate to present a Profit and Loss Account in one of the formats set out by the Companies Act 2006. Therefore, as permitted by the Companies Act, in order to reflect the special nature of the company’s activities, the Directors are of the opinion that it would be more appropriate to present an Income and Expenditure Account.
