Objectives and Activities
Mirfield & District Round Table exists to further such purposes that are exclusively charitable under the laws of England & Wales, in Mirfield, Great Britain or elsewhere in the world as the trustees decide following a meeting of the members, particularly by the provision of grants of funds to charities or other organisations or individuals to further charitable purposes. The trustees believe that all the grants made have complied with the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit.
Funds were raised primarily through two events, a beer festival held at St Peter’s Church in Mirfield in July, and a bonfire and fireworks display held on Mirfield Showground in November. Both were at or near record nett takings, thanks to the efforts of the Round Table and volunteer helpers, weather that was complimentary to the event and the generosity of the public at large. This meant that the fundraising in 2022-23 was significantly better than expected.
Achievements and Performance
In 2022-23, Mirfield & District Round Table approved grants to support amateur sports in and around Mirfield, to provide equipment for local Scout groups and cadets, to beautify Mirfield town centre, to support a volunteer emergency rescue organisation and to assist local churches in their mission to support the lonely and vulnerable in local communities.
Financial Review
At 31 March 2023, the charity held £23,034.51 in reserves. It is the trustee’s long-standing policy to have enough reserves to cover the expenses of the next two events, and due to the increased cost of events, is looking to gradually increase the charity’s reserves while still disbursing funds to meet local needs.
The trustees are also keen to hold a small reserve against the necessity of providing immediate aid to further the charity’s aims and objectives.
There are no funds materially in deficit and the charity’s position to continue as a going concern is sound.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
1 Accounting policies
1.1 Basis of preparation
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards and the Statement of Recommended Practice, "Accounting and Reporting by Charities", issued in March 2005.
1.2 Incoming resources
Recognition of incoming resources
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
-
the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
-
the trustees are virtually certain they will receive the resources; and
-
the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Incoming resources with related expenditure
Where incoming resources have related expenditure (as with fundraising or contract income) the incoming resources and related expenditure are reported gross in the SoFA.
Grants and donations
Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources.
Gifts in kind
Gifts in kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount actually realised. Gifts in kind for sale or distribution are included in the accounts as gifts only when sold or distributed by the charity. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.
Donated services and facilities
These are only included in incoming resources (with an equivalent amount in resources expended) where the benefit to the charity is reasonably quantifiable, measurable and material. The value placed on these resources is the estimated value to the charity of the service or facility received.
Volunteer help
The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report.
Investment income
This is included in the accounts when receivable.
1.3 Expenditure and liabilities
Liability recognition
Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources.
Support costs
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
1.4 Assets
Tangible fixed assets for use by the charity
These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £500. They are valued at cost or a reasonable value on receipt.
