## **For the year ended 31 August 2022** 

Reference and administrative information set out on page 1 forms part of this report. The financial statements comply with current statutory requirements, the Memorandum and Articles of Association and the Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities (effective from January 2019). 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

Bristol Sport Foundation (BSF) is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, established on 3 February 2016 and a registered charity (No 1165410). The charity was established under a Memorandum of Association and is governed under its Articles of Association, revised in March 2021. The Bristol Sport Foundation office is located at Ashton Gate Stadium, Ashton Road, Ashton, Bristol. BS3 2EJ. 

## **Appointment of trustees** 

The trustees who served during the year and up to the date of this report, are set out on page 1. The trustees who meet on a quarterly basis (or nearest available opportunity) act in the best interests of the charity, using care and skills of the board within the objects of the charity to ensure it complies with charitable law and provides public benefit. 

The trustees aim to embed good governance within the charity to enable our people to use their skills and resources to best effect, deliver our mission and achieve our objectives. We will scrutinize the changing nature of risk and ensure we provide the highest standards of safeguarding and privacy to support a positive culture for all staff and the communities they support. 

At the first meeting of the 2021/22 academic year (20 September 2021), Martin Griffiths (Chair of Trustees) tendered his resignation as Chair after 5-years in the role. Martin has been integral to the establishment and growth of the charity throughout his tenure, and he leaves the charity well-placed to thrive as society begins to recover from COVID and lockdown. 

Theresa Kingston accepted the role as Chair for a three-year term. The need identified by the trustees to expand the board has resulted in the appointment of two new trustees, Jon Lansdown joins on an initial two-year term and Gavin Marshall joins on an initial three-year term. The board has also identified the need to expand from four to six trustees to support the development of the charity and have started the process to identify, shortlist and interview potential candidates. 

## **Organisational structure** 

Overall responsibility (in accordance with the Scheme Of Delegation) for Bristol Sport Foundation rests with the Chief Community Officer, Ben Breeze. Responsibility for the provision of Programmes rests with the Head of Programmes (Tom Monks). 

The trustees are ultimately responsible for setting remuneration levels for senior staff. Bristol Sport Foundation aims to offer fair and competitive remuneration packages to attract and retain staff to lead, manage, support and deliver its charitable aims and objectives. 

## **Policies adopted to further the charity’s objectives** 

Bristol Sport Foundation is Tier2: Code For Sports Governance compliant and have adopted and updated the policies and procedures required to enable efficient and effective delivery of programmes and services that demonstrate the governance required to receive funding from local and national organisations such as the UK Government and National Lottery.

## **Report of the trustees** 

## **For the year ended 31 August 2022** 

## **Charitable objectives** 

The exclusively charitable objects for which the charity is established are: 

- to promote community participation in health recreation by providing facilities for the playing of sports capable of improving health; 

- to provide and assist in providing facilities for sport, recreation or other leisure time occupation of such persons who have the need for such facilities by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disablement, poverty or social and economic circumstances or for the public at large in the interests of social welfare and with the object of improving their conditions of life; 

- to help and educate young people (including their academic, social and physical education and skills training) through sport, active recreation, leisure time activities and such other means as the trustees think fit in accordance with charity law to develop their physical, mental and spiritual capacities that they may reach their potential and grow to full maturity as individuals and members of society; and 

- for the general purposes of such charitable bodies or for such other exclusively charitable purposes in each case as the trustees may from time to time decide. 

For the purposes of the objects, the term facilities shall include land, buildings, equipment and organising sports activities. 

## **Charitable activities** 

Bristol Sport Foundation exists to improve lives in the City of Bristol and the West of England by delivering sport and physical activity programmes and services which increase physical activity, improve physical and mental health and assist physical education. 

The trustees are mindful of the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and continue to develop services and activities which benefit individuals, families and communities, especially those identified as ‘disadvantaged’ or ‘in need’, especially: 

- those living in areas where health inequalities are greatest; 

- those living in low social economic wards; 

- young people; 

- those living with a disability or Special Educational Needs; 

- those who are socially isolated; and 

- black or minority ethnicity individuals and families. 

During this period the charity remained aware of the on-going challenges and inequalities in the most disadvantaged communities. We are committed to adapting our programmes and services to help maintain physical activity levels and support good physical and mental health and assist societal and health recovery. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

## Bristol Active Families Project (in partnership with Sport England) 

_Objects: provision of sport and physical activity; physical and mental health; social isolation; disability/SEN; social/economic disadvantage_ 

The Bristol Active Families Project aims to increase activity levels in the most disadvantaged families and individuals in Bristol. We are uniquely positioned to maximise impact by harnessing the established specialisms and reach of three pro-sport charities in the Bristol Sport Group, namely the Bristol Bears Community Foundation (BBCF), the Bristol City Robins Foundation (BCRF) and Bristol Sport Foundation (BSF).

## **The Bristol Sport Foundation** 

## **Report of the trustees** 

## **For the year ended 31 August 2022** 

BBCF’s Intergenerational HUB continues to build on over 30 months of local partnership development work by providing inclusive activities to identify and train volunteers to better connect the Southmead community. BBCF deliver programmes such as Golden Games (for isolated older people), the Headway programme (for Southmead residents with brain injuries) and Community Links Programme (for those with Special Educational Needs). 

BRCF’s Famball and HourTime programme uses existing networks and community partnerships to identify and engage with inactive young people and use this engagement to access and engage with their families and increase physical activity levels. These sessions improve physical and mental health by providing free weekly sporting and physical activity sessions. The programme provides a fun and educational environment where families interact, form stronger bonds, learn new skills together and make new friendships. 

BSF’s We Love Sport (WLS) programme provides inclusive sessions for inactive young people and their families that aim to improve physical competence and build confidence through increased activity and fun. The programme assesses the physical competencies of large numbers of young people and examines the link between low physical activity levels, poor health and wellbeing with poor fundamental movement and physical literacy skills. 

BSF’s Digital Transformation Project continues to create new and efficient ways to collect data and apply ‘academically rigorous’ assessment frameworks to create actionable insight. The systems we use continue to improve operational efficiencies and develop the charity’s understanding of the impact of our delivery. We record and combine baseline activity levels and changes in attitudes and behaviours towards sport and physical activity with socio-demographic community data to improve our understanding and reach. We aim to improve our programme and services and better connect the communities of Bristol in a lifelong involvement in sport and physical activity. 

## Education programmes 

_Objectives: advancement of education (physical education, numeracy, literacy, PSHE); physical and mental health; young people; social/economic disadvantage_ 

Forever Sport is our core primary school programme that directly addresses low physical activity rates and increasing levels of childhood obesity by offering 16 different in-curriculum and extracurricular sports and physical activities. This wider and more inclusive offer provides children with more opportunities to ‘fall in love with sport and enjoy being active’ by learning how to access and enjoy a wide range of sports and physical activities to live an Active, Healthy and Happy life. The programme grows confidence through improved physical activity competence and by raising aspirations. 

- 8,557 young people per week took part in the Forever Sport programme that was delivered in 65 schools during the 2021/22 academic year; and 

- 6,068 young people attended an extra-curricular after school club based at the school.

## **The Bristol Sport Foundation** 

## **Report of the trustees** 

## **For the year ended 31 August 2022** 

In addition to Forever Sport, we work in partnership with schools to develop sport-based education programmes to increase physical activity levels, improve physical and mental health and address specific educational needs: 

- 4,332 young people attended extra-curricular holiday camps throughout the year; 

- 116 young people in 2 schools completed Sums & Scrums, our sporting numeracy programme; 

- 962 young people in 17 schools completed Health Squad, our health and wellbeing programme; 

- 24 selected young people in 2 schools completed Active Maths, our maths intervention programme; 

- 22 young people in 8 primary schools benefitted from our Elevate Mentoring programme that uses sport to engage primary school aged young people and give them skills and tactics to enjoy school and learning; and 

- 955 young people took part in our inter-school festivals throughout the year. 

## Nascence Project 

_Objectives: provision of sport, physical and mental health, young people, social/economic disadvantage_ 

The Nascence Project provides fundraising, volunteering and pro-bono opportunities for patrons, donors, and local and national businesses to raise funds and provide additional resources to Bristol Sport Foundation, Bristol Bears Community Foundation and/or Bristol City Robins Foundation. The Nascence Project enables individuals and/or organisations to make one-off or regular financial donations, volunteer time and expertise through pro-bono giving. The project provides choice and opportunity for organisations to demonstrate support of their community and has provided direct funding and resource for projects during another challenging year for disadvantaged communities. We fundraised and successfully applied for grants that totalled £567,892 with, and on behalf of Bristol Bears Community Foundation, Bristol City Robins Foundation and Bristol Sport Foundation. 

## Addressing Digital Poverty 

In partnership with DigiLocal and our Nascence partners, we donated over £39,000 worth of recycled digital devices to families from disadvantaged wards in Bristol who live with digital poverty and do not have access to the internet. These families are now better connected to the programmes and services available to them in their communities. 

## Reading Recovery 

_Objectives: advancement of education, literacy and mental health._ 

The effects of COVID continued to have an adverse effect on young people, families and communities. Our Reading Recovery literacy support programme was delivered online by 14 volunteers to 12 children for 180 hours in total in two of the most deprived schools in Central Bristol (Evergreen and St Werburgh’s). 

## Sporting fundraisers 

488 corporate volunteers and fundraisers took part in over 7,808 hours of physical activity in 2021/22 by participating in our netball, basketball, football and cycling fundraising festivals, raising £33,020 in the process.

## **The Bristol Sport Foundation** 

## **Report of the trustees** 

## **For the year ended 31 August 2022** 

## **Financial review and plans for the future** 

Bristol Sport Foundation continued to make efficiency savings throughout the 2021/22 financial year and throughout the third COVID lockdown. The charity achieved these savings by reducing the cost of delivery and by restructuring the operational/administrative staffing structure. The demand for programmes and services increased throughout the latter part of the academic year and had a positive impact on revenue by year-end. To this end, Bristol Sport Foundation produced a surplus during the year, returning unrestricted reserves to pre-COVID levels set by trustees. Bristol Sport Foundation continued to work closely with key stakeholders to appropriately resource the charity as schools and community facilities re-opened and demand for programmes and services increased. 

Bristol Sport Foundation will continue to develop robust funding and resource models, managing financial risk by building partnerships to access, maintain and increase regular income from a variety of sources. Bristol Sport Foundation sourced grant funding, continued to develop online capabilities and adapt programme delivery to maintain sport and physical activity opportunities both online and in person. 

"We maintain a particular focus on capturing and analysing data to develop deeper understanding of the impact of our work and demonstrate how increased physical activity has improved physical and mental health." 

The trustees have agreed that the growth and development of the charity should be achieved through a balanced increase of earned income; increased donations; more fundraising activities and further grant applications. 

The restrictions of the pandemic have highlighted the need for innovation, resilience, disciplined creativity and focus on impact. We are committed to remembering the hard-learned lessons and believe this focus will enhance our drive to fulfil the objectives of the charity. 

The trustees consider Bristol Sport Foundation as a ‘going concern’. During the financial year unrestricted reserves increased from £136,864 to £260,064. The cash balance has increased from £79,525 to £299,181. The trustees are satisfied that the level of unrestricted reserves and the cash balance are within the targeted range as set by the trustees, and are at an appropriate level for the charity (see below). 

The charity has continued to adapt delivery to support families and communities in post-COVID recovery. BSF continued to make investments in staffing and digital infrastructure to ensure the efficient, effective and accessible delivery of programmes and services. Demand for programmes and services increased throughout the academic year and helped to refill reserves to the targeted level set by trustees. 

The charity continued to develop sustainability models by creating robust funding models that provide regular income from a variety of sources.

## **The Bristol Sport Foundation** 

## **Report of the trustees** 

## **For the year ended 31 August 2022** 

The charity mitigates the risk of annual rolling funding streams (i.e. the Department For Education PE and School Sport premium) by aligning fixed term staff contracts with confirmed funding / partnership cycles. 

## **Unrestricted funds** 

Net income for the period 1 September 2021 – 31 August 2022 on unrestricted funds amounted to £123,200 resulting in unrestricted funds to be carried forward of £260,064. 

- £1,103,187 income; and 

- £979,987 expenditure. 

## **Restricted funds** 

Net income (expenditure) for the period 1 September 2021 – 31 August 2022 on restricted funds amounted to £65,447 resulting in restricted funds to be carried forward of £40,784. 

- £322,221 income; and 

- £256,774 expenditure. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The trustees of Bristol Sport Foundation have set a target to retain three months of running costs in reserves to provide an appropriate level of resilience for the charity. Total free unrestricted reserves held by the charity on 31 August 2022 were £234,435. The reserves at the balance sheet date have recovered to the level prescribed by the trustees. The 2022/23 budget shows predicted growth and a small surplus. 

## **Fundraising** 

Bristol Sport Foundation aims to uphold the very highest fundraising standards and practices and stay well-informed on fundraising best practice through membership of the Fundraising Regulator. To date, Bristol Sport Foundation has not received any complaints with regards to fundraising activities and are mindful not to undertake fundraising activities that intrude on privacy, are unreasonably persistent, or put any person, especially vulnerable people, under undue pressure to donate. Bristol Sport Foundation do not employ or engage with any external fundraising agencies and do not undertake any street-fundraising or telephone cold-calling and review the Bristol Sport Foundation fundraising policy on an annual basis. 

## **Risk management** 

The trustees have identified and reviewed the major risks to which the Foundation is exposed and have established appropriate policies and systems to mitigate them. Operational staff and programme managers identify, evaluate and quantify all risks to staff, volunteers and participants in advance of activities being delivered. Management of risk and application of risk assessments are adhered to at all times. A comprehensive review of all identified risks is taken on a termly basis or as deemed necessary by staff.

## **The Bristol Sport Foundation** 

## **Report of the trustees** 

## **For the year ended 31 August 2022** 

## **Statement of responsibilities of the trustees** 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales 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 charity and the incoming resources and application of resources, including the net income or expenditure, of the charity for the year. In preparing those 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 judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice 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 operation. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the constitution. The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for 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 charity's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 

Members of the charity do not guarantee to contribute to the assets of the charity in the event of winding up. The trustees are members of the charity but this entitles them only to voting rights. The trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity. 

## **Auditors** 

Godfrey Wilson Limited were re-appointed as auditors to the charity during the year and have expressed their willingness to continue in that capacity.

## **Independent auditors' report** 

## **To the members of** 

## **The Bristol Sport Foundation** 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of The Bristol Sport Foundation (the 'charity') for the year ended 31 August 2022 which comprise the statement of financial activities, balance sheet, statement of cash flows and the related notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

In our opinion, the financial statements: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 31 August 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended; 

- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and 

- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011. 

## **Basis for opinion** 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

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. 

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 charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. 

## **Other information** 

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

9 



## **Independent auditors' report** 

## **To the members of** 

## **The Bristol Sport Foundation** 

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 such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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 in this regard. 

## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** 

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees’ report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- sufficient accounting records have not been kept; 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or 

- ▪ we have not obtained all the information and explanations necessary for the purposes of our audit. 

## **Responsibilities of the trustees** 

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out in the trustees’ report, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and 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 charity’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 charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

## **Our 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 auditor’s 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. 

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The procedures we carried out and the extent to which they are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, are detailed below: 

10 



## **Independent auditors' report** 

## **To the members of** 

## **The Bristol Sport Foundation** 

(1) We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the charity operates in, and assessed the risk of non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Throughout the audit, we remained alert to possible indications of non-compliance. 

(2) We reviewed the charity’s policies and procedures in relation to: 

- identifying, evaluating and complying with laws and regulations, and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance; 

- detecting and responding to the risk of fraud, and whether they were aware of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud; and 

- designing and implementing internal controls to mitigate the risk of non-compliance with laws and regulations, including fraud. 

(3) We inspected the minutes of trustee meetings. 

(4) We enquired about any non-routine communication with regulators and reviewed any reports made to them. 

(5) We reviewed the financial statement disclosures and assessed their compliance with applicable laws and regulations. 

(6) We performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected transactions or balances that may indicate a risk of material fraud or error. 

(7) We assessed the risk of fraud through management override of controls and carried out procedures to address this risk. Our procedures included: 

- testing the appropriateness of journal entries; 

- assessing judgements and accounting estimates for potential bias; 

- reviewing related party transactions; and 

- testing transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business. 

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. Irregularities that arise due to fraud can be even harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

## **The Bristol Sport Foundation** 

## **Notes to the financial statements** 

## **For the year ended 31 August 2022** 

## **1. Accounting policies** 

## **a) Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities in preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

The Bristol Sport Foundation 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 note. 

## **b) Going concern basis of accounting** 

The accounts have been prepared on the assumption that the charity is able to continue as a going concern. During the financial year unrestricted reserves increased from £136,864 to £260,064. The cash balance has increased from £79,525 to £299,181. The trustees are satisfied that the level of unrestricted reserves and the cash balance are within the targeted range as set by the trustees. The trustees therefore consider there to be no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. 

## **c) Income** 

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

Income from the government and other grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue' grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. 

Income received in advance of provision of events and contracts are deferred until criteria for income recognition are met. 

## **d) Interest receivable** 

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity: this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank. 

## **e) Funds accounting** 

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity's work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.

## **The Bristol Sport Foundation** 

## **Notes to the financial statements** 

## **For the year ended 31 August 2022** 

## **1. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## **f) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred. 

## **g) Allocation of support and governance costs** 

Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Governance costs are the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the charity, including the costs of complying with constitutional and statutory requirements and any costs associated with the strategic management of the charity’s activities. These costs have been allocated between cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities on the following basis, based on direct costs: 

||**2022**|**2021**|
|---|---|---|
|Raising funds|5%|7%|
|Charitable activities|95%|93%|



## **h) Tangible fixed assets** 

|**Tangible fixed assets**|**Tangible fixed assets**|
|---|---|
|Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated||
|residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows:||
|Sports equipment|3 years straight line basis|
|Computer equipment|4 years straight line basis|
|Furniture and fittings|4 years straight line basis|
|Storage unit|10 years straight line basis|



Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £500. 

## **i) 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. 

## **j) 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.

## **Notes to the financial statements** 

## **For the year ended 31 August 2022** 

## **1. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## **k) Creditors** 

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. 

## **l) Financial instruments** 

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. 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 recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## **m) Grants payable** 

Grants payable to other organisations are charged in the year in which the offer is conveyed to the recipient, except in those cases where the offer is conditional. 

## **n) Pension costs** 

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme for its employees. There are no further liabilities other than that already recognised in the SOFA. 

## **o) Accounting estimates and key judgements** 

In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may 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 if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. 

The only source of estimation uncertainty that has a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements is depreciation as described in notes 1 (h) above.
