Objectives and Activities
| SORP reference | ||
|---|---|---|
| Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document |
Para 1.17 | To promote the development of young people in achieving their full physical, intellectual, social and spiritual potential both as individuals and as responsible citizens and members of their local, **national and international communities. ** |
| Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts. |
Para 1.17 and 1.19 |
Scouting numbers have remained steady and levels of activity have increased in Maidenhead District in the past year. Sections have continued to lead an active programme and managed to not just retain but increase good levels of young people (only the Beaver scout section slightly dropped in numbers). Encouragingly we are seeing greater numbers of adult volunteers. Most Groups within the District have set up Squirrel sections (for children aged 4- 5 years) and this is helping to boost some of the smaller Groups and provide an influx of more adult helpers. Activities run within the District including activities funded by the District Scout Council eg water activities, are clearly continuing to encourage young people tojoin the organisation. |
| Statement confirming whether the trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit |
Para 1.18 | The District meets the Charity Commission’s public benefit criteria under both the advancement of education and the achievement of citizenship or community development **headings. ** |

Note 2 Accounting policies
2.2 INCOME
This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those shown as "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.
| Offsetting Legacies Governmentgrants Tax reclaims on donations and gifts performance related grants Donated services and facilities Support costs Volunteer help Income from interest, royalties and dividends Settlement of insurance claims Investment gains and losses Liability recognition Governance and support costs Donated goods Grants and donations Recognition of income Income from membership subscriptions Donated services and facilities are included in the SoFA when received at the value of the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably. Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the SOFA. The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs. The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report. This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured reliably. Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and Legacies. Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as income from charitable activities. Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other income in the SoFA. Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'. Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when receivable. Income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when: • the charity becomes entitled to the resources; •it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and • the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. POLICIES ADOPTED ADDITIONAL TO OR DIFFERENT FROM THOSE ABOVE There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102. Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP). p g , y g y provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP). Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met. The charity has received government grants in the reporting period Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise. This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or services or met the performance related conditions. Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so. The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt. In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution. This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. 2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty. Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. |

| Tangible fixed assets for use by charity |
The charity has investments which it holds for resale or cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date less than one year. These include cash on deposit and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than one year held for investment purposes rather than to meet short term cash commitments as they fall due. They are valued at fair value except where they qualify as basic financial instruments. The charity has no heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic, scientific, technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held and maintained principally for their contribution to knowledge and culture. Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net realisable value. Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value based on the service potential provided by items of stock. Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract. Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received. These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £500 They are valued at the lower of cost and valuation. The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 14.
