## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees**
## **for the Year Ended 30 April 2025**
I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Hollie Gazzard Trust (the trust) for the year ended 30 April 2025.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the trustees of the trust you are responsible for the presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act).
I report in respect of my examination of the trust's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume any responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the Trustees, as a body, for my work, or the options I have formed.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
Since the trust's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in the section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants and the Institute of Financial Accountants, which are both listed bodies.
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared financial statements in accordance with the Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable to in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn.
I understand that this has been done in order for financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for the reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination, giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
1) accounting records were not kept in respect of the trust as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or
- 2) the financial statements do not accord with those records: or
3)
the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in the report, in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

**Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 April 2025**
## **1. Accounting policies**
## **Charity Information**
Hollie Gazzard Trust is a charitable incorporated organisation registered with the Charity Commission in England & Wales.
The registered office is Corinium House, Barnwood Point Business Park, Gloucester GL4 3HX
## **1.1 Accounting convention**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the trust's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and "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)" (as amended for accounting periods commencing from January 2016). The trust is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS102.
The trust has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Updated Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements 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 Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations, but which has since been withdrawn.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the trust. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
## **1.2 Going concern**
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
## **1.3 Charitable funds**
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in the furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes of the financial statements.
## **1.4 Incoming resources**
Income is recognised when the trust is legally entitled to it after performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the trust has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount.
## **1.5 Expenditure**
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. All expenses including support costs and governance costs are allocated to the applicable expenditures headings.
## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets**
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets, less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Fixtures & Fittings 25% straight line Equipment 25% straight line
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year.

**Hollie Gazzard Trust**
## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 April 2025**
## **1. Accounting policies (continued)**
## **1.7 Impairment of fixed assets**
At each reporting date, the trust reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is an indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).
## **1.8 Cash and cash Equivalents**
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
## **1.9 Financial Instruments**
- The trust has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS 102 to all it's financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the trust's balance sheet, when the trust becomes party to the contractual provisions of the
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 debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at the transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
## _**Basic financial liabilities**_
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans. are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present values of the future payments, discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current
## _**Derecognition of financial liabilities**_
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the trust's contractual obligations expire, or are discharged, or cancelled.
## **1.10 Employee benefits**
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's services are received.
## **1.11 Retirement benefits**
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charges as an expense, as they fall due.
## **2. Critical accounting estimates and judgements**
In the application of the trust's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount 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 many differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised; where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods, where the revision affects both current and future periods.
## **3. Stocks**
Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost includes all costs of purchase, costs of

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees for the Year Ended 30 April 2025**
I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Hollie Gazzard Trust (the trust) for the year ended 30 April 2025.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the trustees of the trust you are responsible for the presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act).
I report in respect of my examination of the trust's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume any responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the Trustees, as a body, for my work, or the options I have formed.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
Since the trust's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in the section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants and the Institute of Financial Accountants, which are both listed bodies.
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared financial statements in accordance with the Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable to in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn.
I understand that this has been done in order for financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for the reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination, giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
- 1) accounting records were not kept in respect of the trust as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or
- 2) the financial statements do not accord with those records: or
- 3)
the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in the report, in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.
