2 Resources expended
Expenditure is recognized on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes VAT as
the Charity is rbot registered for VAT and therefore is reported as part of the expenditure to which it
relates
Costs of generating funds comprise the costs associated with attrarting grant income. No
such cost has been recognized in the year.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of Its
charitable artivitie5 of Advocacy and Support, Children and Family Services and Respite &
Support. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activitie5 and those
costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. Support costs are therefore not
shown separatety in the ststement of financial activities.
Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and
ststutory requirements of the Charity and include accountancy fees and costs linked to the
strategic mana8ement of the Charity.
All costs are allocated between the expenditure categorie5 of the SOFA on o basis designed
to reflect the use of the resource. Costs relating to a particular activity are allocated dirertly:
others are apportioned on an appropriate basi5 e.g.. time based and used.
3 Taxation
