TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year 1 April 2021 to 31 March 2022. The Trustees confirm that the Annual Report and financial statements of the company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), 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 2020).

Since the charity qualifies as small under section 383, the strategic report required of medium and large companies under The Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Director's Report) Regulations 2013 is not required.

Objectives and Activities

a. Policies and objectives

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the charity commission relating to public benefit.

The objective of the charity is to promote the education (including social and physical training) of people under the age of 25 years in Greater Manchester and the surrounding areas in such ways as the charity trustees think fit, including by awarding to such persons scholarships, maintenance allowances or grants tenable at any university, college or institute of higher or further education for the study of music, drama and the arts. Such other exclusively charitable purposes according to the law of England and Wales that the charity trustees determine from time to time.

Achievements and performance

a. Review of activities

Once covid restrictions in February 2022 were lifted, we reopened our pre-loved stall in the Radcliffe centre. Over the Christmas period, we fundraised via online raffles and blind cards.

We also had an online fund event for the European football event, which also coincided with the 4th Anniversary of the charity, from which we raised £600. We also received a donation from a running club of £2,520. Again we received donations from family and friends, and from the funeral of Olivia's beloved Grandma which raised £430.

We had no new applicants for college places, but we did for private dance and singing lessons. We had an application from a young person who was going to the Irish world dance championships in Belfast to be held in April whom we supported. We also supported pupils at the levy little theatre in Manchester in their production of the musical Matilda.

Covid 19

We continued paying for online lessons, and the young person who was at Leeds college did an online teachers course, so we found alternative ways to educate our students remotely. From February 2022 we continued our fundraising. We still continued the majority of our meetings remotely to protect the wellbeing of our trustees and volunteers. We closely review our expenditure going forwards.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

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.

b. Reserves policy

The trust will hold a fund of £10,000 to continue operations and this amount is based on the fact that most of our recipients have on going funding music dance and singing lessons. We estimate that this will be 12 month running cost in reserve .

Structure, governance and management

a. Constitution

The charity is registered as a charitable incorporated organisation and was set up by a foundation model constitution on 12/07/2017. The registered charity number 1173800.

The charity's registered office is 15 East Street, Radcliffe, Manchester, M26 2PN.

b. Method of appointment or election of Trustees

The management of the charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the foundation model constitution.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

1. Accounting Policies

1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 2020) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

Liv's Trust Charitable Incorporated Organisation 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.

1.2 Company status

The charity is a company limited by guarantee. The members of the company are the Trustees named on page 1. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £Nil per member of the charity.

1.3 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.

1.4 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.

Fundraising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of disseminating information in support of the charitable activities.

Costs of generating funds are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.

Charitable activities and Governance costs are costs incurred on the charity's operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.

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.
