TRUSTEES’ REPORT
The Trustees present their annual report, together with the financial statements of the charity, for the year ending 31 March 2022.
The report has been prepared in accordance with Part 8 of the Charities Act 2011 and the statement of recommended practice (SORP 2019) and is also the directors’ report for the purpose of company law.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out on pages 19 to 20 therein and comply with the Charitable Company's Memorandum and Articles of Association, applicable laws and the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP 2019) on 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities'.
The Time Credits Model
Tempo provides a range of services that engender more resilient communities. We help community and voluntary organisations build capability and capacity through earning and using Tempo Time Credits. These organisations are often part of local networks paid for by local service commissioners (Local Authorities, Health Boards and CCGs) and charities. They recruit and manage volunteers to sustain their community. Volunteers receive Time Credits. Tempo develops recognition partnerships with the public, private and voluntary sectors, where people can ‘redeem’ Time Credits to access events, training and leisure activities. A Time Credit is issued for an hour given and can be redeemed for an hour of activity.
Objectives and activities
Tempo Time Credits galvanises communities to drive positive change for themselves and be more resilient through more individuals and more diverse groups of people volunteering. Our impact is through self-sustaining communities created by resilient people.
Our Vision is of a world in which our services enable diverse individuals and groups to build and sustain their own communities.
Our Mission is that we provide a set of products and services to forward-thinking organisations to build and sustain their communities through maximising the contribution volunteers make.

TEMPO TIME CREDITS LIMITED (A company limited by guarantee)
TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continue)
We do this by providing a range of services:
-
Digital Time Credits that Record, Recognise, Reward, and improve volunteer retention.
-
Information about the impact of both Tempo Time Credits and the community groups we work with.
-
Community development capability and capacity building services which increase organisational resilience, capability and capacity and is a route to new and a more diverse volunteer base with higher volunteer retention.
-
Training and development which delivers accredited and skilled volunteers and proficient voluntary organisations (often delivered by local partners).
-
Intelligence driven by data to facilitate better decision-making, allowing commissioners and community development organisations to measure change and impact.
With this range of services, we can flex our support over time, dependent on the need expressed by local community development organisations. As the communities we work with become more resilient, we help support ongoing change and the new people who come into the organisation through each of our services, delivered in a flexible way to meet changing needs. Our formal charitable objects are specifically restricted to:
-
To advance education of society in the benefits of community engagement, volunteering and the opportunities that Time Credits provide to derive those benefits, including but not limited to the development of skills and participation in society.
-
To develop the capability and capacity of community development through bringing together local, regional and national organisations, in order to deliver sustainable solutions that benefit their local communities. This partnership development will be targeted at those in society least able to take advantage of economic and social change.
-
To improve the diversity and quantity of volunteering at both a local and national level, by promoting and managing Time Credits and associated digital solutions.
-
To promote unpaid work and increase awareness of how voluntary work enriches society and community living, further enabled by the provision of Time Credits.
-
To provide research and consultancy to support delivery of our charitable activities and objects.
Our next 5 years
We want to achieve some ambitious goals driven by our exciting Vision and Mission. In concrete terms we want to:
-
Tempo is recognised as a core part of the UK’s voluntary landscape by corporates and Governments (and their agencies) and Digital Time Credits are heard of by 30%+* of voluntary organisations (50,000) by 2025.
-
Deploy our services that build and/or sustain local community partnerships by 2021 and a way of measuring its long-term impact.
-
Build a digital time credit system used by over 4% of UK voluntary organisations (6,000) by 2025.
-
Build a network of national and local organisations with sufficient capacity to use 30% of issued DTCs every year, so that by 2025 national organisations want to add to our recognition capacity.
This journey which began in 2019/2020 year, continued this year.

Investing in the Future
During 2021/2022, the Trustees considered a number of options. We decided to continue the investment of some of our reserves to realign our operations to fit the needs of our commissioners more closely and to refine our digital platform.
The changes we made to the organisation, to focus more clearly on the impact we have on voluntary sector organisations and their volunteers, meant that we have come out of this year a stronger, more focused, and resilient Charity.
These changes meant that we were able to rapidly flex our delivery and resources to support the communities we work with. We will continue to develop both the capability and capacity building services we offer and the digital Tempo Time Credit platform.
The continuing impact of Covid-19 and the war in Ukraine on the going concern of the Charity
The Trustees assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The Trustees made this assessment for both a 12-month and 24-month period from April 2022 with regard to a prudent five-year financial forecast. In consideration of the Covid-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine, the Trustees have also performed scenario planning, regular forecasting and cash flow projections and thorough risk assessments. The risks identified have been mitigated by reducing costs and taking advantage of governments’ initiatives. After making enquiries, the Trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.
The most significant implication for Tempo and the communities of Covid19 was that our recognition partners closed for a substantial part of 2020 and 2021. To that end, we adopted a more flexible approach in response to the needs of our commissioners. Our operational delivery evolved considerably once Covid-19 and the associated restrictive measures were put in place. We also introduced a range of new national and online recognition opportunities. This was and is appreciated by our commissioners, many of whom have re-contracted with us.
We are currently experiencing a growth in our recognition partner network, but it remains fragile, given the war in Ukraine and the uncertainty that it brings with it.
Impact on the Environment
We acknowledge that every single action (as a Charity and as individuals) we take has an impact on our environment. We want to become more aware of this and seek to minimise the negative environmental impact that our operations have on our World. Our whole approach is to bring about change in society, in communities, in groups and in individuals and this includes positive change around any impact we have on environmental issues.
The most significant ways we can control our impacts are in our use of:
-
Energy
-
Water
-
Waste
-
Travel
-
Suppliers

TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continue)
Environmental regulations, laws and codes of practice are regarded as setting the minimum standards of environmental performance.
Our most significant impact on the environment is in the carbon footprint from our offices and in our travel. We closed one of our offices in December 2020, thus reducing our carbon footprint. By replacing paper Time Credits with digital Time Credits, we have reduced the energy needed to print them and the chemicals required to both print and dispose of them safely once used, and the environmental cost of moving them around the UK. It is estimated that this change alone saved 37,553kg of carbon from 2019/2020. All staff are encouraged to use sustainable means of transport. We estimate this saved us 15,000kg of CO2 in 2021/2022 (but there was close to zero travel to meetings by car).
In 2022/2023 we will re-baselining our environmental indicators, since the changes in the way that we operate brought about by Covid19 and the introduction of digital Time Credits mean that year on year comparisons are of limited value.
In the last year we have held staff sessions where they have come up with a number of ways to reduce our carbon footprint. These include:
-
Reduced impact of gas heating by turning thermostats down.
-
One trip with multiple meetings.
-
Using public transport, rather than a car and provided guidance on more efficient driving techniques. Promoting cycle and electric car use.
-
Targeting green recognition partners.
-
Work together scheme.
Social and Economic Impact
Our mission is to improve the resilience of the communities we work with. We measure this impact through the number of Tempo Time Credits earned and used, the difference it makes to the lives of individuals (see case studies on our website) and through the changes made to the quality of life that volunteers experience.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continue)
Tempo has carried out impact evaluation across our programmes since 2012. The findings from our May 2022 impact survey are shown below.
Our results show that Time Credits attract a more diverse range of volunteers, particularly those from socially and economically disadvantaged parts of our society, brought new people into volunteering and community participation, and support impact against a range of wellbeing measures. In turn, organisations can make more and better use of volunteers, increase the co-production of services and use Time Credits to achieve better outcomes for their beneficiaries – all of which supports community resilience. Time Credits also play a significant part in assisting the retention of volunteers.
We worked with Pro Bono Economics to identify the way to calculate the £ impact of volunteers who earn and use Tempo Time Credits. This found that that the 10,712 volunteers using Tempo Time Credits provide a total contribution of at least £101m for all their volunteering work. Tempo’s net wellbeing impact element was £16.6m. In addition to this, our work with community groups helps them recruit and retain volunteers. It is estimated that this saves them £167,400.
Volunteer quotes
“I used to be in addiction and used to self-harm roughly 15 months ago! I joined a church through social prescribing team and eventually started volunteering! Helping people who have emotional issues and helping refugees and the homeless. I'm now nearly 16 months totally abstinent and feel I have a purpose in my life! I'm learning new things every week and love to be a blessing to others! I used to be homeless but now I have my own flat and a reason for living! Thank you!” Volunteer in Chorley
“Due to having to give up my career due to health issues earlier this year I was feeling worthless & isolated. Volunteering has given me my confidence back, improved my mental health, made me feel part of a community that I moved into during the pandemic, given me a purpose & reduced my isolation.” Volunteer from Great Cambourne
- “I have been using them for getting my hair cut and styled which has improved my confidence a little as I can't afford to otherwise.”
Volunteer from Ebbw Vale
“By doing the volunteering I'm doing to earn time credits makes me feel more happy for the people in the community who need help by helping them and getting involved in their projects I've recently started working on a charity with friends myself and I feel more confident and comfortable about myself now.”
Volunteer from Neath

Staff Wellbeing
This has been an incredibly challenging time for staff in dealing with multiple uncertainties and change both planned (development of the digital platform) and unplanned (Covid-19 impact), as well as a changing working environment with staff combining working from home and caring responsibilities.
We have been as flexible as possible in response including widening our flexi time hours and agreeing to additional annual leave carry over. Additional wellbeing activities were put in place: establishment of a wellbeing group, a wide range of wellbeing activities including, wellbeing week, watercooler chat, book club, walking meetings and attempting to reduce the amount of time spent in online meetings.
Over the last 2 years we have measured staff engagement, commitment and happiness. The results show an improvement of 10%. The average score for staff commitment and engagement (out of 10) is 8.5.

Governance, Structure and Management:
Governance
Tempo is a registered charity and is constituted as a company limited by guarantee. It is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. It was registered as a company limited by guarantee on 15 May 2008 and was registered as a charity by the Charity Commission in England and Wales on 24 March 2010.
The Trustees of the charity are also directors of the company for the purposes of the Companies Act. The Board of Trustees comprises 10 Trustees who were appointed to the Board based on their experience and skills. The directors are appointed for a 3-year term initially. They can serve a maximum of 3 terms before having to step down. The Memorandum and Articles of Association require the Board to consist of at least 3 directors. There is no maximum number of Trustees.
The Trustees are responsible for setting the strategic direction of the Charity, approving and reviewing the delivery of its Business Plan and reviewing the risks the Charity faces. Trustees are planning to establish user groups that support them in understanding the views of Tempo Time Credit users (Volunteers, community organisations and recognition partners).
New Trustees are provided with a full induction about the Charity and their duties and responsibilities, including the Charity Commission publication designed for this purpose. They are inducted into the charity through meetings with other Board members, the Chief Executive, members of the Senior Management Team and staff. Trustees are encouraged to attend external training events where these will be of benefit to their role.
Tempo has also established user panels to help Trustees have a direct link to and understand the lived experience of people in communities we work with.
Equality and Diversity
Tempo Time Credits is committed to proactively promoting equality and diversity and promoting a culture that actively values difference and recognises that people from different backgrounds and experiences can bring valuable insights to both our services and to the workplace and enhance the way we work. Tempo Time Credits aims to be an inclusive organisation, where diversity is valued, respected and built upon, with the ability to recruit and retain a diverse workforce that reflects the communities we work with.
The need for new Trustees is reviewed regularly and when vacancies occur, they are advertised. The aim is to develop a board and staff with a diversity of perspectives. Tempo is taking steps to further diversifying the perspectives of its Trustees and staff so that they are more representative of those who come from within the communities we work with most closely, but who have limited opportunity and/or experience. We have 2 trainee Trustees who would not normally achieve the minimum requirements, due to their lack of Board experience and understanding. They are being mentored to enable them to become eligible to apply.
-
38% of our Trustees self identify as female and 62% self identify as male (was 9% self identified as female in 2021).
-
76% of our staff self identify as female, 21% self identify as male and 3% as transgender (was 60% self identified as female in 2021). The female/male pay gap is 36% (1% if the Chief Executive is excluded).
-
13% of our Trustees are non white British (was 0% non-white British in 2021).
-
15% of our staff are non white British (was 12% non-white British in 2021).

Our HR strategy recognises that we are on a journey and that although we have started, we still a significant distance to travel.
Structure and management reporting
The day-to-day running of the organisation is delegated to the Chief Executive and the Senior Management Team under a Scheme of Delegation. The Chief Executive meets formally with the Senior Management Team on a monthly basis. The Trustees meet 4 times per year primarily to discuss issues of strategic direction in relation to the running of the organisation and the management of performance. The Board is supported by a Finance, Audit and Risk Committee which also meets 4 times per year.
The Trustees who were in office at 31 March 2022, and served throughout the year, are shown on page 1.
Key Management Personnel
The Chief Executive leads a Senior Management Team comprising the Director of Finance, Director of Operations, Director of Digital Time Credits and the Welsh Government Contract Manager.
The Board, led by the Chair, appoints and determines the salary of the Chief Executive based on annual appraisal and affordability. The remuneration of the other members of the Tempo team is set by the Chief Executive with oversight from the Trustees. This advice is based on annual appraisal and affordability. Tempo benchmarks HR and salary data with external providers.
Risk Management
Tempo’s risk assessment process includes an organisation-wide risk register that is reviewed monthly by the Senior Management Team and quarterly by the Board’s Finance, Audit and Risk Committee that reports up to the full Board. In addition to the organisational wide risk register, we operate a 90-day reporting framework across all departments that captures risk, this is assessed by the Senior Management Team.
The key risks currently facing Tempo are:
-
The risk to income resulting from the continuing impact of Covid-19 and on the economic challenges facing the UK from high inflation and a slowdown in economic growth. This impacts the way our current commissioners view their priorities. We are addressing this by regular contact with commissioners to check commitment and developing new online support mechanisms.
-
The slow opening of our recognition partners. We are addressing this by working with our recognition partners to encourage the public back, by them providing time slots for those with Time Credits and publicising this and by developing more online reward opportunities.
In addition to this, the digital platform allowed us to structure the business so that it can respond to increases and decreases in income by having a small, fixed cost base, allowing it to scale up and down as demand dictates.

Achievements and performance: Financial year 2021-2022
As of 31 March 2022, Tempo:
-
Issued (through our local partners) 114,272 (43,933 in 2020/2021) Time Credits. Taking the total number of Time Credits issued to 1,198,273.
-
9,127 people volunteered in organisations issuing Time Credits in 2021-2022 (3,644 in 2020/2021).
-
Tempo Time Credit members volunteered in the 1,039 community and voluntary sector organisations who registered to use Time Credits.
-
15,077 Time Credits were redeemed in 2021-2022 (8,855 in 2020/2021). The total number of Time Credits redeemed by 31 March 2022 was 460,534.
These numbers show the reach of our activities, through the community development and voluntary sector partners we work with. They are the heroes. Our role is to support them. The number of Time Credits issued and redeemed are only a fraction of the impact we have helped these organisations to deliver.
Partnerships
Most of Tempo’s work is undertaken in partnership with other organisations:
-
1,100 community and voluntary organisations
-
459 recognition partners
-
WCVA and the 22 CVCs in Wales
These are the organisations we work with most intensively. Our partnerships with recognition partners are mutually beneficial, with the benefit to them being both the tangible support they give to their local community, and an estimated £789,000 (£1,577 per recognition partner) of additional income from new and returning customers.
The support provided by the CVCs in Wales helped establish the infrastructure needed to deliver Tempo Time Credits in Wales. This could not have been achieved without the strong support of the WCVA.
Financial Review and Reserves Policy
The Trustees took a decision to continue funding the digital transformation and invest to sustain our recognition partner network. During the year, the Charity made a deficit of £45,272.
Our income was lower in 2021/2022 as a number of contracts came to an end. We used this opportunity to concentrate our resources and have a greater impact in our ongoing contracts. Also, a significant amount of our business development time was spent in building the foundations for a large multi-year contract with the Welsh Government (which began in 2020/2021) and we moved internal resources to develop our digital platform which launched in January 2021.
A number of the paused contracts have now restarted. In addition to this we have won contracts with new commissioners in new parts of the UK.

Income was lower in 2021/2022 than in 2020/2021 due to Covid-19. However, the gains made from our digital transformation will result in an organisation more able to flex according to changes in demand.
Cash Flow
Cash resources fell during the year, due to the deficit in the year. This was counteracted by improved contract and debt management. The majority of contracts are now framed with payments quarterly in advance. We have no bad debts and no 90+ day debtors.
Reserves Policy
We have £358,114 in our reserves. Of these reserves, our actual free reserves were £136,839 (Reserves less the net book value of fixed assets). Our policy is to hold sufficient minimum reserves on the basis of “Total Liability Costs” in the event of closure - i.e., to be able to pay all our contractual liabilities if we were required to close down our operations. In accordance with Charity Commission Guidelines. As at 31 March 2022 the limit was calculated at £225,576 against actual free reserves of £136,839 - a shortfall of £88,737. We expect to eliminate this deficit within two years.
Fundraising
Tempo does not actively fundraise from the public. It receives grant funding from charitable organisations and trusts, as well as income earned from the delivery of Local Authority and central government contracts. As a result, the charity has no requirement to subscribe to a fundraising regulation but does remain mindful of the fundraising standards. The charity has not received any complaints within the year about any fundraising activity.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS AND TRUSTEES OF
TEMPO TIME CREDITS LIMITED
AUDITOR’S REPORT
Opinion on financial statements
We have audited the financial statements of Tempo Time Credits (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 the related notes, 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 charity 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
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 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.
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.

Opinion 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 for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
the Trustees’ Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
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 material misstatements in the Trustees’ Report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
adequate and proper 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 prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies’ regime and take advantage of the small companies’ exemption from the requirement to prepare a strategic report.
Responsibilities of Trustees
As explained more fully in the statement of Trustees’ responsibilities set out on page 14 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:

TEMPO TIME CREDITS LIMITED
AUDITOR’S REPORT (continue)
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements (Continued)
We gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the company and the industry in which it operates and considered the risk of acts by the company which were contrary to applicable laws and regulations, including fraud. These included but were not limited to the Companies Act 2006 and Health and Safety Regulations.
Our audit procedures were designed to respond to risks of material misstatement in the financial statements, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery, misrepresentations or through collusion.
We focused on laws and regulations that could give rise to a material misstatement in the company's financial statements. Our tests included, but were not limited to:
-
agreement of the financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation;
-
enquiries of key management personnel and the Trustees;
-
review of minutes of board meetings throughout the period; and
-
obtaining an understanding of the control environment in monitoring compliance with laws and regulations.
There are inherent limitations in an audit of financial statements and the further removed noncompliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. We also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including testing journals and evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the Trustees that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at http://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the 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 members and the charitable company’s Trustees 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, its members as a body, and its Trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES to the FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 31 March 2022
1. Accounting policies
The principal accounting policies are summarised below: The accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout the year and the preceding period.
Statement of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in British pounds (GBP) in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice for Charities (Second Edition, effective 1 January 2019) applicable to charities preparing accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s)
Tempo Time Credits Limited meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).
General information
The charity is a private company limited by guarantee, incorporated in England and Wales (company number 6593956) and a charity registered in England and Wales (charity number: 1135143). The charity’s registered address is show on page 1.
Going concern
The Trustees assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The Trustees made this assessment for both a 12-month and 24-month period from April 2022 with regard to a prudent five-year financial forecast. In consideration of the Covid-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine, the Trustees have also performed scenario planning, regular forecasting and cash flow projections and thorough risk assessments. The risks identified have been mitigated by reducing costs and taking advantage of governments’ initiatives. After making enquiries, the Trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.
Fund accounting
Funds held by the charity are either:
-
a. Unrestricted general funds – these are funds which can be used in accordance with the charity’s objectives, at the discretion of the Trustees.
-
b. Unrestricted designated funds – these are funds which can be used in accordance with the charity’s objectives, at the discretion of the Trustees.
-
c. Restricted funds – these are funds that can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
Income
All income is included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is entitled to the income, receipt is probable and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
Grants, including grants for the purchase of fixed assets, are recognised in full in the statement of financial activities in the yar in which they are receivable.

Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments re valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

1. Accounting policies (continued)
Estimate and judgements
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of the amount, events or actions, actual results ultimately differ from those estimates. The Trustees have found no areas of judgement with a significant effect on the financial statements. The Trustees reviewed in detail the amortisation rate of the new Digital Time Credits system and are satisfied the rate is correct for the expected life of he asset at this time.
