Context

About Fight for Peace

Fight for Peace supports young people to reach their full potential and promotes peace in our communities. We do this by providing access to the opportunities, support and safe environment that any young person needs to thrive, and by using a public health approach to violence prevention.

In the communities where we work, young people often face significant barriers to their development, including a lack of access to basic rights and disproportional levels of violence. We work together with young people to address these challenges via three strategic focuses:

Informed by a public health approach and adapted to the different contexts in which we work, our programmes are designed to meet the needs of every young person in the community. Within this, we also focus on working intensively with individuals or groups identified as being at risk of becoming victims or perpetrators of violence. And we support young people most at risk of harm, or causing harm, to disengage from violence, and work to prevent them reoffending or being victimised again.

Activities for the public benefit

We have referred to the guidance in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.

Activities undertaken in 2022 for the public benefit included:

1. Delivering sports, employability, youth support services and youth leadership programmes at the Fight for Peace Academy and online to young people.

2. Providing training and support Fight for Peace Alliance members in the UK and internationally to build their organisational and programming capacity, based on the Fight for Peace methodology.

3. Leading the Fight for Peace Alliance to strengthen and scale programmes for young people in communities impacted by inequality and violence , sharing practice and providing training

4. Leading Collectives programmes - which draw on the collective impact methodology - in London and Jamaica.

Structure, Governance and Management

The Charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee and not having share capital. It is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association and is registered with the Charity Commission in England and Wales.

Trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no remuneration or other benefits. Trustees are required to disclose all relevant interests and by custom withdraw from any decision where a conflict of interest arises.

Trustees are recruited using appropriate recruitment methods including open advert. All appropriate checks are carried out including with the Disclosure and Barring Service and conflict of interest.

Typically, Trustees meet as a minimum quarterly and have responsibility for the overall management of the charity, ensuring compliance with the charity’s objects and relevant legislation. In 2022 in addition to regular quarterly board meetings, trustees worked closely with the executive team via monthly meetings that focus on the financial sustainability of the organisation and managing risks.

2023 will see return to quarterly Board meetings only.

Trustees also sit on one of two committees . The Charity Audit and Risk Committee meets quarterly with clear terms of reference providing oversight and guidance on matters of finance and risk. A development Committee which meets monthly has a clear focus on providing oversight and guidance on Income generation. Trustees report to the Board on progress and matters pertinent to the Board.

Staff Remuneration Policy

In setting salaries, the Trustees take account of the skills and experience required for all roles, and the affordability for the organisation. During 2022 there were no changes to employee terms and conditions other than formalising the flexibility to work from home - known as hybrid working. There have been no cost-of-living increases to pay bands due to the difficult trading conditions . Four colleagues remain on reduced working days on a mutually agreed basis. The situation remains under review. We continue to benchmark across the sector and terms and conditions broadly remain inline with charities of a comparable size.

Overview of Organisation Performance

Following two extremely testing years brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, and in the face of an emerging and deeply concerning cost of living crisis, 2022 was a year in which our young people, colleagues and supporters had to show great strength and resilience.

The positive optimistic and united approach team Fight for Peace adopted in the face of substantial challenges fills me with a profound sense of admiration, and reflects the values of courage and solidarity that we hold so dear. We are proud that our young people led the way on many of the things that made 2022 special. This included using their creative skills and ingenuity to tell their stories and the stories of our organisation, and leading on the design, funding and delivery of initiatives .

As always, they also provided great inspiration through their achievements, large and small, in the sporting arena. As you will see in the pages that follow, 2022 was a year in which Fight for Peace began a number of new initiatives. We held the official opening of our Peace Garden, a space to remember the friends, colleagues and loved ones that we have lost; launched a new partnership with our local Pupil Referral Units which supports young people through tailored combat sports and personal development sessions; continued addressing issues of violence and related harms with our ACT-AS-1 consortium partners; and introduced our LGBT+ group Rainbow Gloves.

We continued to develop our work nationally in the UK, supporting communities to build back from the COVID-19 pandemic via our partnership with Sport England, and through our new status as a Sport England Systems Partner. We look forward to developing this partnership in the coming years to strengthen our impact in communities that most need it. We were delighted to also be able to welcome a number of prestigious visits to our Academy over the course of the year. Among these were Olympic Gold Medallist and Chair of UK Sport Dame Katherine Grainger, Sport England’s Executive Director of Partnerships Phil Smith, and BAFTA winning actor Micheal Ward.

I want to express our sincere gratitude to all of our wonderful partners and supporters who have been with us throughout the year. I’d also like to extend my sincere thanks to Audrey Bampoe and Renato Lulia Jacob, our two outgoing Trustees in 2022, and Andrew Fox in June 2023 for their wonderful service and dedication to Fight for Peace. At Fight for Peace we believe in the enormous talent, potential and futures of young people and we are fortunate to have partners and supporters who in turn believe deeply in our work and mission. Thank you all, without you none of our work would be possible.

Financial landscape

The 2022 financial landscape has continued to be challenging. During the year staffing levels have been reduced, non-essential expenditure removed and focusing our Income generation resources.

We have been able to slightly exceed 2021 income levels at £2.37m despite the reduction in resources, and our costs have reduced by £862k.

Our reserves position remains stable with restricted reserves improving to £734k, an increase of £369k and total unrestricted reserves reducing by £201k to £2.593m, of which free reserves are £164k. Whilst free reserves remain lower than desired they are still in excess of the funds required to meet the wind down policy.

The Fundraising and Income Generation landscape remains competitive. An effective rebuild of the income pipeline in early 2022 and diversification into new income areas such as events (funded by our corporate partners) has helped improve the financial position.

This includes the development of long-term strategic partnerships, including our new relationship with Sport England as a national partner working to improve the 'sport for development' sector across the country.

Following the end of our relationship with Reebok, in 2023 we will be seeking sponsorship opportunities for our Boxing and Martial Arts for Development activities, as well focusing our core relationships with Trusts and Foundations.

The financial position continues to improve however free reserves have reduced in the year but significantly less than in 2021 . This is a core focus of 2023. If the improved trend continues we hope to build back free reserves in 2023.

Although leaner, we maintained high-quality personal development, employability, and sports services for young people at our London Academy and achieved excellent outcomes with our Fight for Peace Alliance and Collectives partners across the UK and internationally.

As part of the UK Government’s Department for Education Multi Agency Specialist Taskforce (MAST) programme, we worked alongside Newham Pupil Referral Units (PRUs) to increase young people’s engagement in education and reduce involvement in violence.

We officially unveiled our Peace Garden – a place of reflection to remember the friends, colleagues and loved ones that we have lost – via private and public ceremonies attended by families, young people, colleagues and funding partners.

We opened our Academy doors to a number of guests, among them Olympic Gold Medallist and Chair of UK Sport Dame Katherine Grainger, Sport England’s Executive Director of Partnerships Phil Smith, and BAFTA winning actor Micheal Ward. And we hosted the weigh-in for the muay thai Combat Fight Series 10 event.

In combat sports, boxer Terri Naylor reached the final of the England Boxing Elite National Championships, judokas Youcef Belkadi and Muhammed Amin Boussetoua won silver medals in the British Schools Judo Regional Championships and the British Judo London Area Universities and Colleges Senior Open respectively. Tomas Pociuipa also competed in the prestigious Combat Fight Series muay thai event.

We created Rainbow Gloves, a group at Fight for Peace that helps us as an organisation be more supportive and inclusive of the LGBT+ community, including colleagues and young people.

We introduced junior boxing classes for young people aged 10-14, and re-launched our all-female boxing sessions. We staged new youth-led projects including a Lutadoras Consultancy Group delivering training that empowers coaches and youth workers to see their role in achieving spaces of inclusion. The group, which is made up of young women and non-binary people, also successfully applied and received funding from the Your Best Friend Fund to deliver 11 youthled workshops on providing support to friends that find themselves in toxic relationships.

Finally we launched the Young Creatives Project, supporting young people with creative skills and interests to gain experience, guidance and access to employment and developmental opportunities.

LILY MAY BARTLEY

FIGHT FOR PEACE YOUNG CREATIVE

As we close the book of the year, I think it is safe to say that our value ‘courage’ has been presented extremely well. Going into the year, I wanted to ensure that I was exploring my creativity, letting go of fears and overcoming obstacles, and I knew it wasn’t going to be easy. I was once someone who often was finding myself turning opportunities down because it included me letting go of my comfort zone.

One of my many highlights of the year has to be coming up with a project to shine a light on our community of North Woolwich to influence wider perspectives and challenge stereotypes, whilst demonstrating our values. It’s been amazing to see how much we have all played a huge part in empowering, supporting and engaging young people, and I believe we have all done this by ensuring we all constantly go above and beyond to guarantee we are showcasing our values at all times.

I am most definitely excited to see how many more creative individuals we are introduced to and how we can all collaborate together in the near future. As well as witnessing our young people’s development from the start to end. My hopes for the future for Fight for Peace involve creating even more of an empowering space for young people, knowing they have access to sports, self development groups and getting involved in new things.

I think it’s important we understand the positive impact that each and every single one of us has on the young people that attend Fight for Peace. I would like to end this by thanking you all for encouraging, supporting and believing in me. You have all played a huge part in my journey, one way or another.

You’re all champions team, let’s keep inspiring!

Financial review

Reserves Policy

The Fight for Peace reserves policy is designed to provide the charity with a robust financial platform from which to manage known and unforeseen challenges it may face . The policy is informed by Fight for Peace's values and an understanding of our risk profile. Fight for Peace reserves are made up of unrestricted funds sourced from earned income, unrestricted donations, and savings made against previous project budgets where the funder has agreed that Fight for Peace can use the savings as reserves.

The unrestricted free reserves fund consists of sufficient reserves to ensure Fight for Peace can undertake the following responsibilities:

1. Pay redundancies in the event of downsizing or closure.

2. Pay legal and financial advisors to advise on the closing down / downsizing process, plus two key administration staff to manage the process.

3. Retain a small management taskforce for 4 months, designed to save the organisation in extreme circumstances.

Redundancy payments will be calculated at the statutory rate. Amounts will be calculated as of 31 December of the following year to ensure adequate funds to make redundancy payments through the year ahead. The reserves fund is monitored on a monthly basis by the executive team and presented to Trustees on a quarterly basis.

The target unrestricted reserve fund for 2022 is £155k. Actual free reserves at year end were £164k.

Designated funds for the year were £2.42m (2021: £2.53m) which reflects the value of the assets including its buildings that were gifted to Fight for Peace International when it merged with Fight for Peace UK in 2019.

Going Concern

While the charity held the target level of reserves at the balances sheet date, some of these reserves have needed to be used in 2023 and therefore have dipped below the target level. Whilst the 2023 financial forecast shows an improving trend with a well developed pipeline the going concern assessment is required to extend to September 2024. Based on the current financial position and material levels of funding still to be secured in the later half of the 12 months the trustees have concluded that there are uncertainties about the charities ability to continue as a going concern in its current form.

The trustees have therefore already taken substantial steps to reduce the cost base of the charity as well as identifying further measures that could be taken to ensure the charity continues to operate albeit with a change to the scope of the charity activities.

Measures include :

  1. Working with funders to derestrict funds where possible

17

Fight for Peace International

Trustees’ annual report

For the year ended 31 December 2022

  1. Ensuring all funding bids include cover for support and non programme costs.

  2. Strict management of all non essential costs

  3. Combining roles within the Charity support structure to reduce support costs.

  4. Outsourcing services where it makes financial sense (Finance)

  5. Agreeing a base level of Charity operations that ensure services continue for young people.

  6. Agreeing a contingency plan for cost reduction in line with current obligations and income, which has identified a further £580k of potential cost savings which will be implemented during the 2023 year if required.

Having taken these steps and agreed further future mitigation should it be necessary, Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity will remain a going concern for the next twelve months.

Trustees' responsibilities statement

The trustees (who are also directors of the organisation for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees' annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Company law required the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial period 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 group for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Group 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 of fraud and other irregularities.

In so far as the trustees are aware:

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.

Auditor

Sayer Vincent LLP were appointed as the charitable company's auditor during the year and have expressed their willingness to continue in that capacity.

Independent auditor’s report

To the members of

Fight for Peace International

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Fight for Peace International (the ‘parent charitable company’) and its subsidiary (the ‘group’) for the year ended 31 December 2022 which comprise the consolidated statement of financial activities, the group and parent charitable company balance sheets, the consolidated statement of cash flows and the 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 FRS 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:

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 group financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group and parent 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.

Material uncertainty relating to going concern

We draw attention to note 1d in the financial statements, which indicates that the trustees reflect on the current financial position of the charity and the fact that the forecasts for the next 12 months include material levels of future funding that are yet to be secured. As stated in note 1d, these events or conditions, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

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. Our evaluation of the trustees’ assessment of the entity’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting included reviewing the forecasts and budgets prepared by management and assessing the valuation and impact of potential cost-saving measures.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Independent auditor’s report

To the members of

Fight for Peace International

Other Information

The other information comprises the information included in the trustees’ annual report, other than the group financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the group 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. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the group financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of 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 this gives rise to a material misstatement in the group financial statements themselves. 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:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and the parent charitable company and their environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees’ annual report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the statement of trustees’ responsibilities set out in the trustees’ annual report, the trustees (who are also the directors of the parent 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,

21

Independent auditor’s report

To the members of

Fight for Peace International

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 group’s and the parent 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 group or the parent 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

We have been appointed auditor under the Companies Act 2006 and section 151 of the Charites Act 2011 and report in accordance with those Acts.

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 are set out below.

Capability of the audit in detecting irregularities

In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and noncompliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following:

22

Independent auditor’s report

To the members of

Fight for Peace International

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 Financial Reporting Council’s website at: 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 charitable company's members as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and regulations made under section 154 of that Act. 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.

Notes to the financial statements

For the year ended 31 December 2022

1 Accounting policies

a) Basis of preparation

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 (FRS 102) - (Charities SORP FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

These financial statements consolidate the results of the charitable company and its wholly-owned subsidiary Fight for Peace Trading Limited on a line by line basis. Transactions and balances between the charitable company and its subsidiary have been eliminated from the consolidated financial statements. Balances between the two companies are disclosed in the notes of the charitable company's balance sheet. A separate statement of financial activities, or income and expenditure account, for the charitable company itself is not presented because the charitable company has taken advantage of the exemptions afforded by section 408 of the Companies Act 2006.

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note.

b) Statutory information

Fight for Peace International is a charitable company limited by guarantee and is incorporated in the United Kingdom. The registered office address is Fight for Peace Academy, Woodman Street, North Woolwich, London E16 2LS.

c) Public benefit entity

The charitable company meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.

d) Going concern

The trustees have reviewed upcoming funding and forecasts produced by management and consider that due to the current financial position of the charity and the fact that material levels of future funding are yet to be secured, there are material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern.

In light of the current financial position, the trustees have taken substantial steps to reduce the cost base of the charity as well as identifying further measures that could be taken to ensure the charity continues to operate. With this in mind along with the further steps as set out in the trustees’ annual report, the trustees consider that these factors still support the conclusion that the charity remains a going concern.

In the application of the Group's accounting policies, which are described in note 1, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts 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 trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

e) Income Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be measured reliably.

Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the charity that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.

Income received in advance of the provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

f) Donations of gifts, services and facilities

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item or received the service, any conditions associated with the donation have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), volunteer time is not recognised so refer to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution.

On receipt, donated gifts, professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

g) Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

27

1 Accounting policies (continued)

h) Fund accounting

Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund.

Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for the charitable purposes.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular purposes.

i) 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:

� Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of delivering community programmes undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

j) Grants payable

Grants payable are made to third parties in furtherance of the charity's objects. Single or multi-year grants are accounted for when either the recipient has a reasonable expectation that they will receive a grant and the trustees have agreed to pay the grant without condition, or the recipient has a reasonable expectation that they will receive a grant and that any condition attaching to the grant is outside of the control of the charity.

Provisions for grants are made when the intention to make a grant has been communicated to the recipient but there is uncertainty about either the timing of the grant or the amount of grant payable.

k) Allocation of support costs

Governance costs are the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the charity. These costs are associated with constitutional and statutory requirements and include any costs associated with the strategic management of the charity’s activities.

l) Operating leases

Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

m) Tangible fixed assets

Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £200. Depreciation costs are allocated to activities on the basis of the use of the related assets in those activities. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use.

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows:

� Computer Equipment 3 years � Furniture & Fixtures 3 years � Building 25 years

n) Investments in subsidiaries Investments in subsidiaries are at cost.

o) 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.

p) 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. Cash balances exclude any funds held on behalf of service users.

q) 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.

r) The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

t) Foreign currency translations

Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the average rate of exchange for the year. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the net incoming resources for the year.
