## European Diabetology (A company limited by guarantee) STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES 

The Trustees (who are also the directors of European Diabetology 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 requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year 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 income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity 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 taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

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. 

The Trustees confirm they have complied with the duty in the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit. When reviewing the aims and objectives of the charitable company and in planning its future activities the Trustees refer to the guidance and consider, in particular, how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF EUROPEAN DIABETOLOGY 

I report to the Trustees on my examination of the accounts of European Diabetology for the year ended 31 August 2021, which are set out on pages 6 to 16. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the Trustees of the company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145 (5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their opinion on the accounts. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide. Consequently, I express no opinion as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and my report is limited to those specific matters set out in the independent examiner’s statement. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

Since the company’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of The Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies. 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Ireland (FRS 102). 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

European Diabetology (A company limited by guarantee) NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ending 31 August 2021 

## 1        ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

## CHARITY INFORMATION 

European Diabetology is a private company limited by guarantee and incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Hartwell House, 55 – 61 Victoria Street, Bristol, BS1 6AD. 

European Diabetology meets the definition of a public benefit entity under section 34 of FRS 102. 

The principal objectives of the charity are detailed in the Trustees report found on page 2 of these financial statements. 

The charity is a company limited by guarantee. The members of the company are the trustees named on page 1. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the entity. 

## ACCOUNTING CONVENTION 

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) second edition – October 2019 and Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. The accounting policies as disclosed have been applied consistently throughout the current and preceding year. 

The accounts are prepared under the historical cost convention with the exception of fixed asset investments which are held at fair value. 

The financial statements presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. 

## GOING CONCERN 

The trustees have reviewed the expected cash outflows for the charity against expected cash inflows and assets held for 12 months from the approval of these financial statements. The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and therefore have concluded that it is appropriate to use the going concern basis in the preparation of these accounts. In making this assessment the trustees have taken account of the ongoing COVID-19 situation and the associated uncertainties in financial markets. 

## FUND ACCOUNTING 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and have not been restricted for other purposes. Designated funds are set aside by the trustees to be spent on specific purposes as its own discretion. The designated funds currently in the financial statements relate to approximately 6 months’ running costs of Diabetologia. 

## INCOME 

Income is recognised when the charity is entitled to the income, the value can be measured with sufficient reliability and it is probable the funds will be received.

European Diabetology (A company limited by guarantee) NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ending 31 August 2021 

## EXPENDITURE 

Liabilities are recognised as resources expended as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to the expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. 

Charitable expenditure comprises costs incurred by the charity in delivery of its activities and objectives. It includes both costs directly attributable to activities and indirect costs necessary to support them. 

Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include independent examination fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity. 

Grants payable for each year, as agreed by the trustees are included in the accounts of that year. 

Commitments to pay grants to specific research projects in future years are conditional on annual reviews of programme and are therefore not provided for until such payments are due. Such commitments are not binding and will be charged against the income of the year in which they are paid. 

## GAINS AND LOSSES 

All gains and losses are taken to the statement of financial activities as they arise. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sales proceeds and their opening carrying value or their purchase value if acquired subsequent to the first day of the financial year. 

Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the fair value at the year end and their carrying value. Realised and unrealised investment gains and losses are combined in the statement of financial activities. 

## INVESTMENTS 

Investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially measured at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date using the closing quoted price. The statement of financial activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluation and disposals throughout the year. 

The market value of investments held in the portfolios are represented within unrestricted funds and the income portfolio is included within the unrestricted distribution fund accordingly. 

## FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS 

As the charity only has basic financial instruments it has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ of FRS 102, to all of its financial instruments. 

Financial instruments are recognised when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

## _Basic financial assets_ 

Basic financial assets, which include trade and other receivables and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing 

10 



European Diabetology (A company limited by guarantee) NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ending 31 August 2021 

transaction, where the financial asset is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at market rate of interest. 

## _Classification of financial liabilities_ 

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities. 

## _Basic financial liabilities_ 

Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other payables are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. 

## TAXATION 

The charity meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is partially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes. 

## FOREIGN CURRENCIES 

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 rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the net income for the year.
