Throughout the pandemic we have been able to continue our drop-in sessions tivice a week in both Stoke on

breakfasts and provide support. advice and the hand of friendship. Alongside our drop in sesbions and with the
support of longblanding partners and regular donations our food bank remains independent and sustainable and
we are proud 10 help where we can.
As we look to 2022 our focus is to continue growing our supported accommodation. We are simply taking huge
pleasure in watching this area of the project flourish and seeing positive outcomes from our residents. I would
also like to take this opportunity to express gratitude to our trustees. staff and volunteers right across the
organisation for their hard work and support oi'er the year. Each day I give thanks to God for the nurturing
fruitfulne%s of our charity and the faith lo continue the work we do.

concern.
Income and endowments
Voluntary income including donations, gifts, legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general
naiure is recognised when the charity has eniitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be
received and the amount can be measured with suffjcient reliability.

Open Door Stoke on Trent
l¥Jotes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021
Governance costs
These include the co%t8 attributable to the charity's compliance with conSti￿tional and sta￿tOry requirements,
including audit, %trategic tnanagement and tru%tee%'% meetillg% and reimbur%ed expenses.
Taxation
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph I Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and
therefore it meets the defjnition of charitable company for UK ¢orporation tax purposes. Accordingly. the
charity is potentially exempt from t¢￿atIOn in respect of income or capital gains received within ¢ategories
covered b), Chapter 3 Part I l of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable
Gain8 Act 1992, to the extent that %uch incotne or gain% are applied exclu%ively to charitable purpose%.
Trnde debtors
Trade debtor.s are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services perfornied in the ordinary
course of business.
Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subseqiiently measured at amortised cost
using the effeCti￿.e interest tnethod, less provision for impairjnenl. A provision for the impairtnent of trade
debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all ainounts due
according to the original terms of the receivables.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and ¢ash equivalcnt% comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid
investments that are readily convertible to a known atnount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of
change in value.
