ReachAcross International TRUSTEE5' REPOR T CONTINUED Investment Pollcy The charity's investmènt powers are pre5tribed in lis constitution. The prescribed investment powers allow the Iru5tees to invest in any investments or securities of any nature consistent with the principles for which the charlty stands, including land of any tenure. The irustees have decided that with the present level of reserves it is prudent that investment Is not restricted to cash on deposit but that it is deslrable to Invest a portion of the reserves of the charity into other low or medium risk investments to ensure the financial lon8-term viability of the charity, due to low interest rates and Tising Inflation. The trustees are se@klng professional advice in the process of taking out such an investment. Reserves Pollcy The trustees have examined Ihe requirement for free reserves whlch are those unrestricted funds not invested in flxed assets, designated for specific purposes or otherwise committed. The trustee5 ¢onsider that. given the present nature and level of the work and the call on funds. £40.000 should be held and this wi11 be sufficient to prtsvlde workin8 Capltal for core costs and allgw for quick re5pon5e to any emergencles. Rlsk Mana8ement The trustees actively review the major risk5 that the charity faces on a regular basis and believe that maintainlng free reserves at the levels stated above. combined wsth ihe regular review of controls and systems carried out, wlll provide suffleient resources in the event of any problems. The tnjstees have also examined the operatlonal rlsks fated and established that the necessary Systems are in place to mitigate the si8nificanl ri5k5. Again, an annual revlew of the financial controls was done using ihe template provided by the Charily Commlsslon. Trustees The trustees In office durlng Ihe report period and at the date of the approval of thls report are set out on page l. Publlc Benefit The tharity acknowledges Its requlrement to demon51rate clearly that It must have charitable purposes or'aims, that are lor the public benefit. The trustees confiim that they have paid due fe8ard to the charity commission guidance on publlc benefii before de¢idin8 what activities the charity should undertake. Statement of Tru5tee5' re5pon5ibllities The trustèes are required by law to prepare fi.nancial statements lor each financial year which give a true and falr view of the state of affairs of the charity at the end of the financial yeai and of the incoming resources and application ol the resources of the charity in that year. In preparing those financial statements the trvstees are required to.. select suitable accountin8 pollcies and then apply them consistentlv., make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; Comply wlth applicable accounting standards subject to any materlal departures disc105ed and explained In the financial statements- and prepare the financial 5taiements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue In business.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for theyaer ended 31 March 2022

1. Principal accounting policies

The charity has taken advantage of the exemption in Financial Reporting Standard No 1 from the requirement to produce a cash flow statement.

a) Basis of Preparation and Assessment of Going Concern

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention in accordance with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant notes. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP - FRS102) and the Charities Act 2011.

The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.

Assessment of Going Concern

Preparation of the accounts is on a going concern basis. The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern.

b) Incoming resources

The network of ReachAcross charities provides donations to ReachAcross International to co-ordinate international support for the network. It is accounted for in full on a receipts basis with the addition of any tax reclaimable. In accordance with this policy, legacies are included on receipt of payment from the personal representative of an estate or when property is transferred.

c) Tangible fixed assets

All assets costing more than £250 are capitalised.

Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of fixed assets on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives. No depreciation is charged on the freehold property as it is maintained to such a standard that its estimated residual value is not considered to be less than its cost or valuation and any depreciation charge will be immaterial.

Depreciation rates used are:

Furniture and equipment 25% straight line

d) Foreign currencies

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Currencies are revalued at year-end.

e) Resources expended and basis of allocation of costs

Expenditure is included when incurred and includes irrecoverable VAT. Expenditure on operational programmes is recognized in the period it is incurred. A designated fund is established for expenditure which has been committed to projects, but remains unspent at the year end.

f) Costs of managing and administering the charity

These represent costs attributable to the management of the charity’s assets, organizational administration and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT ON THE ACCOUNTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022

Report to the trustees/ members of xxx (Charity Name) on the accounts for the year ended xxx (date).

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner’s statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention

  1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:

  2. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and

  3. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act

  4. have not been met; or

  5. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
