REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2021

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The Charity’s gross income for this year was £2,758 (2020: £19,439), a very sufficient amount as costs have been well managed over this period. The Charity remains in a good position to manage its obligations. The principal financial obligations for the Charity for this year were related to operational costs for events, such as sound system hire and online service costs for conferences.

PLANS FOR THE FUTURE

Given the pandemic situation we are not expecting large costs for hosting physical events in the upcoming fiscal year.

RESERVE POLICY

It is the policy of the Charity to maintain in reserve a minimum of £3,000. This provides sufficient funds to cover deposit requirements for future venue hires and catering. The Charity will seek to maintain this level throughout the year.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Charity has assessed all the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, in particular related to its operations and finances, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to major risks.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2021

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a) Basis of Preparation

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 2015) – (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), and the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015.

The accounts are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Charity.

The trustees consider that there is no material uncertainty about the Charity’s ability to continue as ongoing concern.

Public Benefit

The trustees acknowledge the requirement to demonstrate clearly that the Charity must have charitable purposes or aims that are for public benefit. Details of how this is achieved are provided in the Report of the Trustees. The trustees confirm that they have paid due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit before deciding what activities the Charity should undertake.

b) Income

All income is recognised in the statement of financial activities as they are received.

c) Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the Charity and are used at the discretion of the trustees.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the Charity that the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose.

Restricted funds are funds that can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the Charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. Unrestricted funds previously received were able to cover the restricted funds deficit at 30 April 2020 related to the North America College Training (“NACT”) expense.

d) Expenditure and liabilities

Expenditure is recognised when the amount is paid.
