TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2021
OPERATIONAL AND FINANCIAL REVIEW
a. Going concern
After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.
b. Operational review
This review covers the financial year 1 May 2020 – 30 April 2021.
c. Financial performance
Funds at the start of this financial year were £148,925.
The charity received income of £nil in this financial year.
Expenditure during this financial year was charitable donations totalling £115,000. This comprises £40,000 to registered charity Chichester Information Shop for Young People; £25,000 to registered charity Off The Record (SE Hampshire), who operate in Havant; £50,000 to registered charity Verity's Gift.
There has been no other expenditure incurred (the Trustees do not charge for their services or their expenses; office services and supplies are donated, free of charge, by Legalese Ltd). The benefit-in-kind of those services donated by Legalese Ltd are estimated at £2,000 for the year ended 30 April 2021.
Cash in bank account as at 30 April 2021 was £33,925.
The Trust has no financial commitments or obligations.
John Pritchard has assigned to The Trust the benefit of the copyright in his ‘H48’ publications (and agreed to indemnify The Trust for any liabilities arising thereunder). All royalty or sales revenues from that title will go direct to The Trust, with Legalese Ltd having agreed to provide all necessary production, print and support services free of charge to The Trust.
In so far as is practicable, all money donations received are transferred out to other charitable organisations without any deduction (so 100 pence in every £1 goes to charitable purposes without any admin or other deduction).
d. Public benefit
The Trust helps young people to actively participate in the regeneration and development of their communities.
e. Risk management
The trustees have evaluated and considered the impact of identifiable risks on the Trust and has policies in place to minimise these.

JOHN PRITCHARD TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2021
1. General information
John Pritchard Trust is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, domiciled in England and Wales, registration number CE005179, charity number 1162911. The registrered office is 188 Fleet Street, London, EC4A 2AG.
2. Accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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) (effective 1 January 2015), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' 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 on 16 July 2014 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
John Pritchard 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.
2.2 Income
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.
2.3 Expenditure
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 activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct 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 between 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 Charity's 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 when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitment, but not accrued as expenditure.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

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.
