FOREWORD
from Shabir Randeree CBE, Chairman
Over nearly five decades, the vision and leadership of our Founder and President, the former Prince of Wales, has inspired the work of The Prince’s Trust. We have, of course, sent our deepest condolences to the Royal Family on the sad passing of HM The Queen. It is with profound gratitude we remember her unwavering commitment to our country, the Commonwealth, and all our young people.
have fared far worse in terms of the economic consequences of the pandemic. Education has been disrupted, employment has been lost or curtailed and young people are often ‘first out of the door’.
As a long-standing supporter, Mosaic Chair, Trustee of The Prince’s Trust and now Chairman of Prince’s Trust International, I am incredibly proud of the growing role that Prince’s Trust International is playing around the world, particularly as we adapt to the ‘new normal’ post pandemic.
emphasis on the sad reality that young women face an even harder time than young men. Last year, two-thirds of our beneficiaries were young women.
Over the next year, we intend to deepen our work in the countries where our programmes are delivered; to focus on improving the quality of our partnerships and outcomes for young people and to do more to use our convening power to amplify their voices. We will also work to recover the deficit we incurred this financial year, due to a timing issue of donations received, in order to continue building a resilient reserves position.
Mental health and self-confidence
have been shattered for far too many of our young people, and more so, those in challenging environments.
Central to Prince’s Trust
International is our primary goal to tackle the global crisis in youth unemployment. Our mission is to empower young people to learn, earn and thrive. We work with local delivery partners to deliver programmes and interventions which help young people to complete their education, find employment, or become an entrepreneur.
It is not all forlorn of course. Medical science has produced we incurred this financial year, vaccines at a record speed due to a timing issue of donations and given hope to us all. It will, received, in order to continue however, take time for younger building a resilient reserves generations to adjust.

WELCOME
from Will Straw CBE, Chief Executive
The work of Prince’s Trust International has never been more vital. While we hope the pandemic recedes, the scale of the economic decimation for young people is only beginning to be understood.
Unesco has called Covid-19 ‘the worst education crisis on record’ with, at its peak, more than 1.6 billion learners affected by school closures. They estimate that the losses in lifetime earnings for this cohort could reach US$17 trillion which is around 14% of global GDP.
Seven in ten children aged 10 in middle- and low-income countries could find themselves in ‘learning poverty’. In 2022, the International Labour Organization estimates the unemployment rate for 15–24-year-olds will be 14.9%; compared to 4.4% for those aged 25 and above. Distressingly, one in four young people cannot find jobs that pay more than US$1.25 a day.
By April 2022, Prince’s Trust International had supported 45,762 young people to develop their education, employability and enterprise skills since we were founded in 2015. Around six in ten young people on our employability programmes go on to find work. Pleasingly, we have begun to see a virtuous circle where young entrepreneurs who have been supported by our enterprise programmes are now working with our employability programmes to find young people to help expand their business.
The last year has seen some operational developments as we have begun working in our own dedicated headquarters for the first time and improved the diversity of our team as we seek to achieve stretching targets to represent at all levels the communities where we work. As Covid restrictions have been lifted, we have been able to revive our travel to visit our programmes and partners while being increasingly mindful of our carbon footprint by reducing the overall number of trips and making better use of video conferencing technology. These developments will allow us to be a more responsive and dynamic organisation.
Despite these alarming statistics, young people are optimistic about their future. Our second report examining young people’s attitudes to the future of work found that this cohort overwhelmingly believe that they will have a career that is fulfilling and better than their parents’, that they will always be able to get a job, and that they will achieve what they want despite Covid-19. Optimism is particularly strong in the African and Asian countries where we work.
Prince’s Trust International now has partnerships with 36 youth organisations who deliver our programmes internationally and provide consultancy support to several others. With these organisations, we are creating a community of practice to share insights from around the world on the best ways to support young people into employment.
We share young people’s optimism but are not naïve about the challenges they face. Over the year ahead, we will continue to stand with young people helping empower them to a brighter future.
We need to meet this optimism with opportunity. I’m proud that in 2021/22, our programmes were able to support 18,815 young people, a 77 per cent increase on the previous year.
In the year ahead, we aim to bring these partners together virtually and in person to enhance this mutual learning.
Will Straw CBE Chief Executive

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE 2021/22
Global Impact
In 2021/22 18,815 young people were supported through Prince’s Trust International and its delivery partners. This is a 77% increase on the number of young people reached in 2020/21. Of these, 64% of young people were women or girls and we delivered three gender specific programmes, Enterprise Challenge in Jordan, Project Lehar in India and consultancy in Saint Lucia.
The current positive outcome rate (i.e. finding work, training or further education) for our employability programmes is 63% after 3 months and 71% after 6 months.
Delivery of 10 new projects took place and we grew our delivery into four new countries - Egypt, Nigeria, Tanzania and Uganda - bringing us to a total of 17 countries where Prince’s Trust International interventions are delivered.

Working with others
Compared to last year we saw an improvement in skills across the board. Delivery to over 3,000 of the young people mentioned above was enabled thanks to financial support provided directly by third party funders to our delivery partners. This support, worth over £840,000, came from sources including the Canadian Bureau of International Education, the Government of Barbados, the Maria Holder Memorial Trust, King Abdullah II Fund for Development, Proman, the Government of Malta, and the Jack Dorsey Foundation. We are grateful to these funders for their faith in our programmes and delivery partners.

PRINCE’S TRUST GLOBAL SUSTAINABILITY AWARD: ECOROAD TEAM, JORDAN WINNERS 2022
For most people, speed bumps are a common and unremarkable road safety feature. But for a team of teenage entrepreneurs in Jordan, they’re an inspiration. Fifteen-year-old Zaid, Maya and Mohammad have come up with an ingenious way of using speed bumps to generate electricity.
The trio’s prize-winning business concept, EcoRoad, sees the bumps adapted to absorb and transform kinetic energy from passing cars, with the electricity then stored in batteries for sale.
and an online simulation game. Finalists design, develop and pitch their own business ideas, focusing on enterprises with a positive social or environmental impact as well as profit-making potential.
‘We need entrepreneurs to come up with ideas that fix problems,‘ explains Zaid, the team leader. ‘Our business idea is about tackling the energy problem and tackling environmental issues.’
The EcoRoad team came up with the idea while taking part in the Enterprise Challenge programme, delivered in Jordan by our partner Injaz. Designed around an inter-school competition, the programme enables school students to develop practical business skills and awareness through coaching, mentoring
Last year, over 5,500 students took part in the Enterprise Challenge programme in Jordan,
with over 130 school teams entering the competition. When the EcoRoad team won the national finals, they collected £800 in prize money to further their idea. Since then, they’ve also secured additional seed funding from a private businessman. The team has used their funding to bring in expert engineering input from a local university, where their prototype is now under development.
In May 2022, recognising their outstanding achievements, the EcoRoad team won The Prince’s Trust Group’s first ever Global Sustainability Award. ‘Winning this award means a lot to us as a team,’ says Maya, the team’s technician. ‘It proves that anyone can create a change if they put enough time and effort into their idea.’

EQUALITY, DIVERSITY & INCLUSION
Prince’s Trust International is committed to embedding equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) in all our work. We continue to take action to help address inequalities so that our Trustees and staff are more representative of the communities with which we work, to dismantle structural inequalities, and to promote a more inclusive environment. There is, however, more to do.
In 2021, we set challenging targets to address under-representation of Black, Asian, mixed and other ethnic groups within three years and five years.

Our Trustees comprise 56% from a Black, Asian, mixed or other ethnic background. Our challenge remains the appointment of diverse staff at senior management levels.
Across Prince’s Trust International there has been a 7.6 percentage point increase in staff identifying as Black, Asian, mixed and other ethnic.
A new approach to in-region appointments, particularly in the Caribbean, has had a significant impact in the regional programmes team.
SAHARA, BARBADOS
Twelve-year-old Sahara doesn’t want to wait until she’s left school to start her own business – she’s keen to get going right now. Her business idea, Frutify Smoothies and Health Shack, focuses on healthy snack food, especially for children.
‘We’ll sell juices or smoothies, baked goodies like muffins – healthy muffins though – and things like nuts packaged together,’ Sahara explains. ‘Things that will look and taste delicious and also will be very healthy.’
As part of the programme, small Money management was one of teams design, develop and pitch the key things that Sahara and her their own business idea, focusing teammates learned about during on enterprises with a positive the programme, and this included social or environmental impact, how to set prices.

Sahara and her teammates came up with the idea while taking part in the Enterprise Challenge programme, a joint initiative from Prince’s Trust International and Barbados Youth Business Trust. The programme enables school students to learn practical business skills through coaching, mentoring and an online business simulation game.
‘Even though we all like junk food, we need to stay healthy,’ she explains. ‘There’s lots of problems with obesity at the moment…. Even young children are becoming obese.’
When I was younger, I always wanted to start my own business but I never knew how or what to do, so when my mum told me about this I thought yes I want to do it, it will help me and then after this probably I can start my own business.

Initiatives
-
➔ We have undertaken a comprehensive review of our organisational values and behaviours framework, which has included feedback from our global delivery partners.
-
➔ We have commenced a wide-ranging policy review, introducing new policies around Dignity at Work, Mental Wellbeing, Time off and Family Friendly, amongst others, and consolidated our Flexible and Agile Working practices. We are scrutinising our approach using equality impact assessments.
-
➔ We have undertaken our first gender and ethnicity pay gap surveys.
Our Gender Pay Gap Mean (average) Median (middle) 13.6% 3.5%
The mean pay gap of 13.6% is below the national average of 14.6%, with the median of 3.5% significantly lower than the national average of 15.4%.
Due to the small number of employees the figures should be treated with caution as one individual at either extremity can have a major impact on the data. For a sample size such as Prince’s Trust International, the median figure may be more representative as it removes issues with outliers.
Our Ethnicity Pay Gap
Mean (average) Median (middle) 2.8% -12.7%
As ethnicity pay gap reporting is not mandatory there is insufficient data for a broader UK comparison. However, our data shows a minimal mean gap of 2.8% in favour of white employees but a median gap of 12.7% in favour of staff who identify as Black, Asian, Mixed or other ethnicity.
➔ In association with The Prince’s Trust, we offer a mutual mentoring scheme to support colleagues from ethnically diverse and LGBTQ backgrounds with their career development.
➔ Our senior leadership have made a commitment through “My Big Promise” to provide a safe space for conversations and to actively sponsor Black, Asian, Mixed and other ethnic talent in their career development.
-
➔ We aim to raise awareness among staff through sharing knowledge and understanding, including on: ➔ Say My Name (which adds the phonetic pronunciation of their name to email signatures)
-
➔ Use of pronouns
-
➔ Celebrations of awareness weeks and key religious dates
-

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Prince’s Trust International had actual income for the year of £4,248,332 (2020/21: £3,896,815) and expenditure of £4,672,028 (2020/21: £3,626,465), resulting in an operating deficit for the year of £423,696 (surplus 2020/21 £270,350).
The operating deficit was caused by a delay in receipt of expected income. In particular, one large unrestricted donation just missed our year end cut off and another has just been received. These two donations alone would have prevented the full year deficit and we are keen to reinstate our reserves. We are therefore adding £423,696 to our income target for FY22/23 to ensure our reserves are not affected by this timing issue.
This includes a number of
Reserves Policy
The Trustees review the reserves policy annually and our aim is to have a level of free reserves of between four to six months of operational expenditure. However, as we are a young organisation and still in our growth stage, the Trustees are comfortable with a level of reserves lower than this.
new positions to support our development, particularly in the areas of Fundraising, Digital and Design, Communications and Risk and Compliance.
We were cognisant of the need to recruit people with direct knowledge of, and networks within, the youth sector of countries where we have programmes. This has resulted in a more diverse workforce.
Total funds as of 31 March 2022 were at £1,293,093 (2020/21: £1,716,789), of which £766,560 (2020/21:
Adding the brought forward reserves of £1,716,789 results in new total reserves of £1,293,093. Of these reserves £766,560 is restricted to delivery due to take place in FY22/23. The free reserves are therefore £526,533 (2020/21: £483,396).
£1,233,393) were restricted funds. Unrestricted reserves £526,533 (2020/21: £483,396) represent approximately two months of nonprogramme related expenditure, therefore building these unrestricted reserves is a key focus for the coming year, through the generation of unrestricted income to fund our core running costs. This will be a primary focus for our Fundraising team.
Following consultation, a restructuring of the fundraising team and programmes team was completed. The fundraising team are now led by a new Director of Fundraising and we have created a new Deputy Director of Communications and External Affairs. Both positions report directly to the CEO and has enabled a more strategic focus on both functions. With the increase in our delivery across seventeen countries the demands on the programmes team significantly increased. The restructure introduced the new positions of Director of Delivery and Impact and Deputy Director of Global Delivery. The safeguarding function was moved to our risk and compliance team. This has successfully enabled additional capacity for strategic development and operational management of our regional programmes.
Staff Team
During the recent pandemic staff have shown a resilience and an ability to be flexible and adapt to different ways of working. With the easing of COVID-19 related restrictions and a return to more normal working patterns we received several flexible working requests from staff. This has resulted in a more agile workforce across the organisation with a mixture of office, home and hybrid working.
The team has grown over the past year with our staff numbers at 56 (48.5 full time equivalent) with effect 31 March 2022.
FUNDRAISING FOR OUR WORK
Since 2015, Prince’s Trust International has grown to support over 45,000 young people in the Caribbean, Middle East & North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa, Asia and Europe.

We will expand our reach to 18 countries, with delivery in Serbia commencing which had been previously paused due to COVID restrictions.

opportunities for young people particularly in the local labour market with a view of delivering pilot programmes by the end of the financial year.
New Headquarters
Prince’s Trust International moved into new headquarters in Central London in Autumn 2021. Prince’s Trust International staff had been working from home since the charity vacated our previous headquarters in March 2020. The move to new offices has provided a welcome chance for colleagues to collaborate and innovate face-to-face and provided an opportunity to showcase our work to guests.
The sustainability of our programmes will remain a significant focus, where we will continue to work with delivery partners to increase organisational effectiveness in areas such as programme design, impact, safeguarding, and fundraising.

RISK POLICY
Prince’s Trust International recognises the inherent risks in working with young people outside the United Kingdom and in raising the funds to pay for its work. These risks, including external risks as highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Russian invasion of Ukraine and inflationary pressures, can be outside our control. We are required to consider and mitigate all risks, to ensure there is the right balance in place between the risks taken, the benefits and required standards.
Prince’s Trust International has a Risk Register, which scores and ranks the status of risks, including (but not limited to) staff, partners, beneficiaries, reputation, intellectual property, quality assurance, financial sustainability and funding. The methodology of this Risk Register has been developed by The Prince’s Trust and tailored to fit the needs of Prince’s Trust International.
The Board of Trustees delegates risk management to the CEO and senior management. The Risk & Audit Committee has responsibility to look in detail at Risk and does so as a standing item at every meeting. Risk is also reviewed regularly at the meetings of the Prince’s Trust International Board.
These risks include safeguarding, fraud, health and safety (related to both staff, volunteers, trustees and programme beneficiaries), mental health and wellbeing, reputation, programme development, information and cyber security, and data protection and management. Prince’s Trust International works to mitigate the risks that it takes and aims to help delivery partners to ensure safe and effective opportunities for young people.
Prince’s Trust International has a comprehensive insurance policy, reviewed annually under the guidance of its insurance broker, and is currently held with Hiscox Insurance.
Prince’s Trust International carries out due diligence on all countries where it works and is proposing to work, and on all delivery partners. The scope of due diligence includes risks relating to the country, the in-country delivery partner and the project funder. This due diligence is captured within a Delivery Partner Assessment proposal that is reviewed by the Prince’s Trust International Board, before a decision is made on whether to progress. Our Risk & Audit Committee considers a Holistic Country and Programme Assessment of existing programmes on a regular basis. This due diligence process has been developed with feedback from external advisers.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF PRINCE’S TRUST INTERNATIONAL
REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OPINION
However, because not all future events or conditions can be predicted, this conclusion is not a guarantee as to the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (“ISAs (UK)”) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under ISAs (UK) are further described in the Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, Prince’s Trust International’s financial statements (the “financial statements”):
- ➔ give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company’s affairs as at 31 March 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, and cash flows, for the year then ended;
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Reporting on other information
The other information comprises all of the information in the Annual Report and financial statements other than the financial statements and our auditors’ report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion or, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in this report, any form of assurance thereon.
- ➔ have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards, comprising FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland”, and applicable law); and
Independence
We remained independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, which includes the FRC’s Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.
- ➔ have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Conclusions relating to going concern
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from the date on which the financial statements are authorised for issue.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify an apparent material inconsistency or material misstatement, we are required to perform procedures to conclude whether there is a material misstatement of the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information.
- We have audited the financial statements, included within the Annual Report and Financial Statements (the “Annual Report”), which comprise: the balance sheet as at 31 March 2022; the statement of financial activities (including income and expenditure account) and statement of cash flows for the year then ended; and the notes to the financial statements, which include a description of significant accounting policies.
In auditing the financial
statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF PRINCE’S TRUST INTERNATIONAL (CONTINUED)
Based on our understanding of the charitable company/industry, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to the Charities Act 2011, and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006. We evaluated management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls), and determined that the principal risks were related to the posting of inappropriate journal entries and the manipulation of key accounting judgements and estimates. Audit procedures performed included:
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report based on these responsibilities.
The trustees are also responsible for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Based on our work undertaken in the course of the audit, the Companies Act 2006 requires us also to report certain opinions and matters as described below.
Trustees’ Report
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit the information given in the Trustees’ Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and the Trustees’ Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Auditors’ responsibilities for the
audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
- ➔ Enquiry of management and the board of trustees, including consideration of known or suspected instance of noncompliance with laws and regulation and fraud;
In addition, in light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we are required to report if we have identified any material misstatements in the Trustees’ Report. We have nothing to report in this respect.
- ➔ Reading minutes of meetings of the board of trustees and board subcommittees, including the audit and risk committee;
RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE AUDIT
-
➔ Reviewing terms and conditions of significant contracts;
-
➔ Reviewing the correspondence with regulators including the Charities Commission;
Responsibilities of the trustees for the financial statements
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the applicable framework and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF PRINCE’S TRUST INTERNATIONAL (CONTINUED)
-
➔ Assessing the reasonableness of key accounting judgements and estimates including the allocation of support costs; and
-
➔ Assessing financial statement disclosures, and testing to supporting documentation, for compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above. We are less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations that are not closely related to events and transactions reflected in financial statements. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations or through collusion.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the FRC’s website at: www.frc. org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditors’ report.
Use of this report
This report, including the opinions, has been prepared for and only for the charity’s members as a body in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and for no other purpose. We do not, in giving these opinions, accept or assume responsibility for any other purpose or to any other person to whom this report is shown or into whose hands it may come save where expressly agreed by our prior consent in writing.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounting Convention
Income from trading activities
The financial statements are prepared under the historical convention.
Income from trading activities is recognised when services are delivered. Income is deferred when payment has been received for services which are to be delivered in the future.
Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the going concern basis. There are no material uncertainties about the Charity’s ability to continue. The Charity is a public benefit entity. The accounting policies have been applied consistently.
Grant income
Grant income is credited to the Statement of Financial Activities when received or receivable whichever is earlier, unless the grant relates to a specific future period, in which case it is deferred. Included within grant income is income received as part of the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (CJRS), which has been accounted for as a government grant under the performance model. CJRS grants are receivable in respect of qualifying employees and are recognised when salary payments have been made to the qualifying employees.
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the following:
- ➔ Financial Reporting Standard 102 – ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland’ (‘FRS 102’)
As the CJRS is designed to compensate for staff costs, the amounts received are recognised over the same period as the costs to which they relate. CJRS grants are not received with restriction as to the charitable purposes for which they can be spent.
- ➔ CHARITIES SORP (FRS 102) (second edition – October 2019)
➔ The Companies Act 2006
- ➔ The Charities Act 2011
Other income
- ➔ The historical cost convention
Other income relates to income which is not donations, from charitable activities or from trading activities. This income is recognised when there is entitlement, receipt is probable and the amount is measurable.
Income from donations
Donations are recognised when there is entitlement, receipt is probable and the amount is measurable. All donations are shown gross of related expenditure. Tax credits receivable from gift aid donations are recognised when there is a valid Gift Aid declaration.
Expenditure
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Income is deferred where the donor has specified that the income is to be expended in a future period or where contractual conditions for entitlement will be met in a future period.
Donations in kind comprise goods, services and facilities donated to Prince’s Trust International which would otherwise have had to be purchased. They are valued at the amount that Prince’s Trust International would have paid in order to obtain them and are included both in income and expenditure.
The costs of raising funds include the salaries and overhead costs of the staff who undertake fundraising activities and the marketing and publicity costs associated with raising the profile of Prince’s Trust International (but not those which are used in an educational manner in furtherance of the Charity’s objects). Other costs, in compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, include external audit costs.
Income from charitable activities
Grants from government and income from other public sector contracts have been recorded as income from charitable activities. All income from charitable activities is shown gross of related expenditure. Income is deferred when the conditions applying to the grant are not wholly within the control of Prince’s Trust International.
Support costs include the salaries of those managerial staff which are not directly attributable to a particular programme of charitable work, governance costs, and of charges made by The Prince’s Trust for support services (e.g. Finance, IT, HR and for other administrative staff and all office running costs) consumables and other
overheads not specifically attributable to a particular programme of charitable work.
Support costs are allocated to costs of raising funds and charitable activities on the basis of the relative effort involved, based on an assessment by the Charity’s management. Irrecoverable VAT is included with the item of expense to which it relates.
Contractual liabilities
Prince’s Trust International provides for legal or constructive obligations that are of uncertain timing or amount at the balance sheet date on the basis of the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation.
Tax
The charitable company is exempt from income and corporation taxes on income and gains to the extent that they are applied for their charitable objects.
Funds
The funds of the Charity have been segregated as follows:
Restricted Funds consist of donations for
which the donor giver has specified the purposes for which the resources can be utilised and therefore to which expenditure is restricted.
Unrestricted Funds consist of all other
income that has not been restricted. They are expendable at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the objects of the charity.
Tangible Assets
Tangible fixed assets costing more than £500 are capitalised and are valued at their purchase cost, including any incidental expenses of acquisition. Any impairment is recognised in the year in which it occurs in the corresponding SOFA category. Donated assets are capitalised at a value equivalent to their notional cost at the time of acquisition. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets (excluding land but including donated assets) at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual values, on a straight line basis over their expected useful economic lives as follows:
Asset Category Useful economic life as at 31 March 2022 Computer Equipment 3 years Fixtures and fittings 5 years Leasehold improvements Over the lease
1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Financial Instruments
The charitable company has chosen to adopt the Sections 11 and 12 of FRS 102 in respect of financial instruments.
i. Financial assets
Basic financial assets, including trade and other debtors, and cash and bank balances are initially recognised at transaction price, 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 liabilities are derecognised when the liability is extinguished, that is when the contractual obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires.
Such assets are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
iii. Offsetting
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and 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.
At the end of each reporting period financial assets measured at amortised cost are assessed for objective evidence of impairment. If an asset is impaired the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in the SOFA.
Critical Accounting Judgements
and Key Estimates and Assumptions
The Charity allocates support costs between different charitable activities using management’s judgement of the proportion of effort expended on each category during the year.
If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the SOFA.
Pension Scheme
The Prince’s Trust has arranged a defined contribution pension scheme for Prince’s Trust International staff. Pension contributions charged in the Statement of Financial Activities represent the contributions payable by the Charity in the year. Defined pension scheme contributions were charged to the profit and loss as they fall due. The Charity had no potential liability other than for payment of those contributions.
Financial assets are derecognised when (a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled or (b) substantially all the risks and rewards of the ownership of the asset are transferred to another party or (c) control of the asset has been transferred to another party who has the practical ability to unilaterally sell the asset to an unrelated third party without imposing additional restrictions.
Foreign Currencies
Transactions in foreign currencies during the year are translated at the rate ruling at the transaction date. Foreign currency balances are translated at the rate by exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date.
ii. Financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.
