The trustees are very happy with the overall outcome of the above in meeting the charity's stated objectives and envisage sustained growth and development of the organisation within the foreseeable future.

- 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 for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of 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.

## **JUBILEE+** 

## **(a Company Limited by Guarantee)** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024** 

## **1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## (a) General Information and Basis of Preparation 

Jubilee+ is a private company limited by guarantee registered in England. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £10 per member of the charity. The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 4 of these financial statements. The nature of the charity's operations and principal activities are the promotion of social inclusion and the prevention or relief of poverty or financial hardship. 

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. 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) issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. 

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention. The financial statements are presented in pounds sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity, and rounded to the nearest pound. 

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated. 

## (b) Income Recognition 

All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to such income, there is sufficient certainty of receipt and it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount of income can be measured reliably. 

Grants and Donations 

•         Where donors specify that grants or donations must be used in a future accounting period, the income is deferred until those periods; 

•         Where donors impose conditions which have to be fulfilled before the charity becomes entitled to use such income, the income is deferred until the period in which the pre-conditions are met. 

Where donors specify that grants or donations are for a particular restricted purpose, which does not amount to pre-conditions regarding entitlement, the income is included in incoming reserves within restricted funds when received. 

## (c) Resources Expended 

Resources expended are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities on an accruals basis, inclusive of VAT. Individual costs are allocated between the various headings in the Statement of Financial Activities by reference to the underlying nature or reason for which those costs were incurred, on an estimated percentage basis. 

## (d) Unrestricted and Restricted Funds 

Unrestricted funds comprise income received or generated by reference to the general objects of the charity without further specified purpose. Such funds may however be designated by the trustees for specific purposes from time to time. 

Restricted funds are those donated for a specified purpose as laid down by the donor or as the result of a specific appeal or application. Such funds are kept separate from the unrestricted funds of the charity and only related expenditure is charged against them. 

## (e) Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation 

Tangible fixed assets are capitalised and depreciated at the following rates, so as to write off each asset over its estimated useful life: Fixtures, fittings and equipment - 25% reducing balance 

## (f) Stock 

Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. 

(g) 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. 

## (h) 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. 

(i) Creditors and provisions (j) Pension Costs 

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. 

Contributions, which are payable into the personal pension plan of the employee, are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate. 

## (k) Going Concern 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material 

uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for the 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with levels of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.

## Restricted Funds 

Advisory Group: Douglas Trust is funding A two-year project aimed at directly connecting with people who have suffered social poverty, hardship or exclusion. The aim is to ensure that Jubilee+ activities address such issues in a well-informed and well-directed manner. 

Partner Churches Scheme: Jubilee+ has identified partnering with individual churches as a key strategy to increase the reach and the impact of the benefits it has to offer. In order to increase the number of such churches, Jubilee+ recruited a Partner Church Scheme Leader (0.5 FTE for 18 months). This initiative is 50% funded by Douglas Trust. 

CEO Salary Support: from first April 2023 the Jubilee+ Chief Executive increased her working level from 0.6 to 1.0 FTE. This is a key step in developing the capacity of the organisation to address the increasing level of demand. To help fund this transition one church and one individual committed to provide some financial support for a period of one year. 

Leadership Training: Funding was received from an anonymous donor to develop a leadership training course for churches to use with people with a background of poverty who would find it difficult to access traditional leadership courses. 

Prayer Resource:  Funding was received from a number of charities in order to write and print the 'Stand in the Gap' prayer resource booklet which focused on 'ideas for praying about poverty in the UK'. It was distributed widely to churches and charities. Youth Resource:  Funding was received from London City Mission and Lifespring Church Horsham, towards the production of training resources aimed at encouraging and equipping young people to engage with social justice and action.
