The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fairf view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair. view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) published in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Ststement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn. The Sahara Care Charitable Trust 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. 1.2 Incorne All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation. 1.3 Expendlture Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each adivity are made up of the total of direct Costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direcl costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned be￿een those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset's use. Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the CharitWs objectives, as well as any associated support costs. Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure vthen the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitrnent, but not accrued as expenditure. 1.4 Debtors Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Pr8payments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. Page 7 9of14 1811112025, 09..48

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the d8bt or the amount it has re￿Ived as advanced payments for the goods or 5ervic85 it must provide. Provisions ar8 m8asured at the best estimate of the amounts required to S8tUe the obligation. Wher8 the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discount8d at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statemant of Financial Activities as a finance cost. 1.7 Financial instruments 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. 1.8 Fund accountlng General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which havé not been designated for other purposes.
