Durlng this reportin8 period, CITA renewed the Odyssey Mentorlng Scheme partnershlp with the Brltlsh Army which represents a valuable collal)oration between our organisatlon and the Royal Corps of Signals, the communications and IT branch of the British Army.

Objectives and Activities The Charity's Aim is: To promote for the public benefft the efficiency and effertiveness of charities and not- for- profit organisations through the provision of education and training in information technology and the implementation of related projects. Our aim is to help charities. but also to help with the challenge of IT. Technology can be challenging for small organisations without in-house expertise, and CITA can be an immensely valuable, trusted partner. How our Objectives Deliver Public Benefit.. The trustees confirm that they complied with the duty in Section 4 of the Charities Art 2011to have due regardtothe Chartty's Commission general guidance on public benefit "Charities and Public Benefrt" We have referred to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objective5 and in planning our activtties. In particular the trustees have considered how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set. CITA'S work benefits a wide range of other charities across the United Kingdom. Our main objectives are to: Provide adwce to charities on a wide range of IT issues through matching thern with a volunteer. Equip our volunteers with advice and resources to increase the value of thelr efforts and time. Develop other forms of support for charities, according to identified need. Evaluate the impact of our service on beneficiaries to inform the future development of our services. Charities CITA introduces charities looking to improve their technology capabilities to volunteers with appropriate IT skills and experience. Our vision is a world in which charities can harness the ftjll potential of technology to increase their impart for good. We help to achieve this by providing charities with access to affordable, trustworthy, and independent technology seiceS to allow them to achieve their own strategic mission. Services We facilitate the followlng sep4ices to deliver against these objectives: CITA Revlew service offer5 a short IT assessment giving independent advice to identify and qualify potential IT projects and initiatives, that will support their strategic and operational objectives. CITA Advi5(ry service provides IT Project Management support and advice helpin8 charities to define, plan and manage identified IT projects from scoping to completion. CITA

Performance Monitoring We identified the followin8 five areas and ten Key PerfOnMan Indicators that allow us to measure our SUC$5 against our mtssion. We use feedback from charities and volunteers to help u5 further understand the effertiveness and impart of our work. We measure the number of charities that we have engaged with, and their income levels. to see which part of the sector we are helpingthe most. We also measure which of those charities have limited IT resources, because ft Is here that we can make the blggest impact. In 2022: CITA worked wlth 57chorltles ocro55 the UK, dellvering o total of 65 projects. Of whlch 34% received an annual income of less thon £50K, ond o further 35% received less thon ES00k.

6. Financial Review
At the end of 2022 CITA showed cash balance of £18,252 (2021: £14,805). Total income for the year was £34,198 (2021: £18,206), which included £5,450 (2021: £9,975) for consultancy services.
The 2022 plan was to attempt to win new grant funding to replace the WCIT grant, grow income through the Lloyds Bank Foundation (LBF) fees and direct fees and repeat the mentoring scheme for the Royal Corps of Signals. Grant funding of £15,970 was obtained, but LBF projects were radically reduced compared to plan but picked up towards the end of the year. The RCS signed an expanded mentoring scheme and paid in full upfront. During the year a new CSR sponsorship was signed with Boxxe for £5,000.
Reserves
Any income generated above the approved budget of CITA in a financial year will be used to establish and maintain a financial reserve. That will be held in a separate financial vehicle from the operational funds.
The Financial Reserve may only be used to fund the charitable activities of CITA, when income has fallen below the budget for a year and there is no foreseeable way to fund the Charities activities.
The decision to utilise the Financial Reserve may only be taken by a majority vote from the Trustees.
Plan for the Future
In 2023, CITA intends to launch its new platform which should enable CITA to use its resources to grow the level of customer service and increase the number of charities helped across the UK.
This year CITA has engaged external consultancy to generate and pursue a grant funding strategy initiated to drive a much-increased effort to secure grant income in 2022 and will continue this strategy for 2023. CITA aims to work with more partners, increase the service levels and grow its marketing presence to reach more charities. CIT A intends to increase and strengthen the volunteer base to improve the knowledge of skills that can be offered.

7. Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities in Relation to the Financial Statements
The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' annual report and financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations.
Charity law 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 of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for the year. In preparing these 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 (Statement of Recommended Practice);
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue its activities.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the charity 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.

DonGtion5 Gnd legacies Donations are reco8nised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditlons that require a level of performance bythe charity before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period. Income from donated goods/services is measured at the fair value of the goods/service unless this is impractical to measure reliably. in whlch case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated resale value. Expenditure All expendlture is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligatlon to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be direttly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreclation charges allocated on the portion of the asseys use. Raisingfunds These are costs incurred In attrarting voluntary income and those incurred in trading artivltie5 that raise funds. Charitable octivities Charitable expenditure comprises those costs tncurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirert nature necessary to support them. Support costs Support Costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity Cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita. staff costs by the time spent and other cost5 by their usage.

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost usin8 the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision forthe impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short- term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. Fund structure Unrestrirted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees, discretion in furtherance of the objectNes of the charity.

Recognition ond measurement All financial assets and Ilabilities are Inltlally measured at transactlon price (Includln8 transaction costs), except for those flnancial assets classlfied as at falr value through profft or loss, which are initlally measured at fair value {which Is nomially the transactlon price excluding transartion costs), unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transactlon. If an arrangement constitutes a financin8 transactlon, the flnancial asset or financial liability is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of Interest for a similar debt Instrument.
