Message from our Founder
As we close another impactful year at Goodwill Caravan (GWC), I am filled once again with profound gratitude for our partners, donors, staff, and volunteers who have enabled our continued growth and vital humanitarian impact across multiple regions. 2025 has been a year of transition, expansion, and deeper engagement with vulnerable communities. Despite the many global challenges, our mission to serve forcibly displaced people with dignity, compassion, and practical support has remained steadfast and effective.
This year, our strategic focus has been on responding to emergencies, expanding vocational training opportunities, and reinforcing long-term stability for refugee families through mental health, education, legal aid, food security and vocational training initiatives. Our work in Egypt, Libya, the UK, Pakistan and Palestine reflects a holistic commitment to empowering displaced individuals, helping them transition from crisis to opportunity.

Message from our Founder (continued...)
We have seen our Peace (Sallam) Centre in Cairo evolve into a vibrant hub of healing and learning. Originally envisioned as a safe space for refugee mothers and children, it has become a cornerstone of our work in Egypt, offering psychosocial support, education catch-up classes, food assistance, medical, legal and training opportunities. In just a few months, hundreds of beneficiaries have accessed the services, while dozens of volunteers—many themselves migrants—have received on-the-job training in humanitarian service delivery.
In Libya, we started our vocational training programs in response to the growing economic fragility and lack of employment for displaced youth. With Englishlanguage instruction and IT skills, now paired with technical training in airline ticketing, airport passenger assistance, food preparation, and teacher’s assistant training, we are helping prepare young people for employment opportunities that can transform not just their lives but entire families and communities.
Our Palestine emergency relief efforts continued, partnering with Action for Humanity, which prepared and delivered over 8,000 hot meals within Palestine. Along with our relief efforts from the past year, we delivered another truck carrying essential medical supplies and food aid that reached thousands of beneficiaries in Palestine, bringing the total number of trucks sent there since the beginning of our emergency response to 15.
We also launched a three-month food distribution partnership with the Jerusalem Fund, which provided sustenance and dignity to families.
In the UK, our longstanding commitment to refugee integration led us to partner with BCBN on a digital inclusion initiative. The initiative provides refurbished laptops for education and employment to migrants. It is a small project in scale but has a significant impact on the individual beneficiaries.

Message from our Founder (continued...)
In January 2025, I had the privilege of attending the World Economic Forum in Davos to raise awareness about the plight of displaced communities and highlight the work of Goodwill Caravan. This global platform allowed us to share the stories of those we serve and engage with influential leaders on how to support refugees and trafficking survivors. It was a valuable opportunity to elevate our mission and build new partnerships that can help expand our impact.
Each of these achievements reflects our enduring belief that we can profoundly improve the lives of those displaced by war, persecution, and crisis through local partnerships, volunteer engagement, and targeted, compassionate programming.
I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to HELP – Hilfe zur Selbsthilfe e.V. for their unwavering support throughout 2025. Their funding has been vital in enabling us to deliver a number of our core projects across Egypt, Palestine, and Libya. Their commitment to our mission has made a tangible difference in the lives of thousands, and we are truly thankful for their continued trust and collaboration.
We thank all those who have stood by us on this journey—your trust fuels our resolve, and your support enables our mission.
On behalf of the Board and team at Goodwill Caravan, thank you.

About Us
GWC is a non-profit humanitarian organisation that is leading global efforts to combat human trafficking and protect refugees and displaced populations.
We staunchly advocate for every child's inherent right to a future defined by stability, and free from the fears that endangers their lives and those of their loved ones.
At the heart of our mission lies a steadfast commitment to uplift and support society's most vulnerable individuals: families, orphans, and detained unaccompanied children.
These individuals are in great danger of becoming victims of harmful activities like illegal organ trade, human trafficking or deadly abductions when they are left stranded in detention centres, camps, or abandoned on the streets.
Our endeavours are infused with a resolute dedication to fostering community cohesion. In the face of an escalating crisis, it is increasingly evident that Goodwill Caravan stands as one of the few comprehensive and enduring sources of support.
In locations like Greece, Libya, Pakistan and Egypt, where governments, UN agencies, and international charities find their finite resources overwhelmed by mounting demands, we remain a steadfast pillar of unwavering assistance.

Risk Management
The Board of Trustees reviews the principal risks facing the charity at least annually and considers appropriate mitigation measures. This includes strategic, operational, financial, safeguarding, and compliance risks, with ongoing oversight exercised throughout the year.
In working across international jurisdictions and with delivery partners, the Board pays particular attention to legal, regulatory, safeguarding, and financial risks, using due diligence, clear agreements, and oversight to ensure activities are delivered safely and in line with the charity’s objectives.
The charity undertakes grant-making where appropriate, funding trusted partner organisations to deliver services on its behalf. This approach ensures specialist expertise, local access, and effective use of resources in meeting charitable objectives
Recruitment and Appointment of New Trustees
GWC’s recruitment results either from needing to replace a standing-down trustee or identifying specific skills or experience that the Management Committee (MC) requires or would benefit from. The ad is placed on the charity website, Charityjobs.org.uk, Linkedin and other suitable websites.
Shortlisted applicants are invited for an interview. The interviewing panel systematically comprises at least two interviewers, including the Executive Director. The successful applicants are invited to attend the next MC meeting and will be formally established as trustees.
Policies and procedures for the induction and training of trustees:
Once the MC has approved the interviewing panel’s selection, the recruited applicants receive the Trustees Induction Pack and associated resources with which they familiarise themselves before attending their first GWC MC meeting.
At this stage, the CEO encourages them to read the Charity Trustee Welcome Pack from the Charity Commission website and to join the Charity Commission’s mailing list for training purposes and governance updates.
The newly appointed trustees attend an induction session at GWC’s office when they meet with the CEO and other employees. They are deliberately left to raise any questions they wish to ask from staff outside the CEO’s presence.
Trustees are kept informed of any significant development or legislation affecting their role and actions as trustees, e.g. GDPR, workplace pensions scheme/autoenrolment, etc. The annual review of the GWC Business Plan, culminating in the yearly October review meeting, offers a constantly effective opportunity for training and re-training in governance and strategy-setting matters.

Goodwill Caravan’s Gaza Aid Initiative has been a beacon of hope in one of the world’s most challenging crises. In 2023-24, we delivered 14 trucks of critical medical supplies, food, and essential resources. In the current financial year of 2024-25 we were unfortunately only able to deliver 2 trucks before the borders closed.

Key Achievements
EGYPT
Building Community and Resilience
Our work in Egypt scaled significantly this year, with several initiatives designed to support newly arrived Sudanese and Palestinian refugees.
Hot Meals Distribution:
We launched a large-scale hot meals initiative in response to food insecurity among displaced families in Gaza. A total of 8049 nutritious meals were prepared and distributed, on our behalf, by Action for Humanity, each capable of feeding up to four individuals. These efforts immediately relieved hundreds of families, offering sustenance and stability in their initial weeks of displacement.
Emergency Aid for Palestine:
In partnership with our Cairo-based logistics team, we dispatched a truckload of emergency aid to Palestine. This included 473 medical supply boxes benefiting 3,865 individuals, and 76 food boxes assisting 684 beneficiaries. This aid was funded by our strategic partner, Help - Hilfe zur Selbsthilfe e.V., ensuring seamless delivery of medical and nutritional support to those in urgent need.
Jerusalem Fund Partnership – Food Box Distribution:
In collaboration with the Jerusalem Fund, we distributed 1000 food boxes over a three-month period. These boxes provided nutritional support to families navigating deepening insecurity and displacement, ensuring consistent food access and easing household burdens.

Sallam Centre Cairo – A Refuge for Learning and Recovery
In November 2024, we formally launched operations at the Sallam Centre in Cairo. This year, it has grown into a multifunctional community support space offering:
Mental health support for 223 children and 82 mothers, including art therapy and group sessions.
-
Mother and baby classes focused on health and nutrition. Distribution of 1300 wellbeing packs.
-
Weekly food assistance through boxes, hot meals and vouchers.
-
Volunteer training for Sudanese and other migrants on programme delivery, logistics, and community support. Legal aid sessions for 1200 beneficiaries during the year.
Notably, in April 2025, the centre also began hosting catch-up education classes for children who had been out of school for over a year. These classes aim to bridge the academic gap and prepare students for reintegration into the Egyptian school system through government-recognised examinations.

Key Achievements
LIBYA
Vocational Empowerment for a Generation at Risk
Recognising the link between unemployment and vulnerability to exploitation, our programming in Libya this year centred on building long-term employability for displaced and conflictaffected youth.
Vocational Training Project:
- Through our Tripoli-based initiative, 240 individuals participated in skills-based training designed to enhance employment prospects. The programme combines English-language classes with vocational training in airline ticketing and passenger assistance—a timely offering aligned with the new airport infrastructure development in the region.
This project not only responds to local employment gaps but also fosters dignity and agency among participants, empowering them to become economically self-sufficient.

Key Achievements United Kingdom Digital Tools for Refugee Integration
In collaboration with Better Community Business Network (BCBN), we launched a digital inclusion pilot to support refugee access to job training and education.
Laptop Distribution Project:
Twenty five refurbished laptops were distributed to refugee beneficiaries across the UK. This initiative, though small in scale, had significant impact—enabling digital access for training courses, job applications, and communication. As we gather impact data, we are exploring ways to expand this program in the future.

Key Achievements United Kingdom
Family Reunification
Fawaz’s Journey: From War to Reunification
At just ten years old, Fawaz fled Syria after being separated from his parents by sniper fire at the border. Alone and afraid, he spent over eighteen months in Greek detention centres and refugee camps before GWC intervened.
Now fifteen and thriving in Manchester, he continues to rebuild his life, welcoming his family after a long-awaited reunion in July 2024. His story is a powerful reminder of hope, resilience, and the impact of family reunification efforts led by GWC.
Working with lawyers across Athens, and London, we helped reunite him with his aunts in the UK in December 2020. Later, Fawaz received the incredible news that his parents and eight siblings had survived.

Fundraising Gala A Night of Solidarity and Support
In February 2025, Goodwill Caravan hosted its largest annual fundraising gala at the Hyatt Regency in London. The event brought together over 200 guests from the humanitarian, philanthropic, and business communities in a powerful evening of connection and compassion. Guests included longstanding partners, trustees, diaspora leaders, volunteers, and key donors, each contributing to the vibrant community that sustains our mission.

Fundraising Gala A Night of Solidarity and Support (continued...)
The evening’s programme was designed to highlight the transformative impact of our work across Egypt, Libya, Palestine, and the UK. Sensitive testimonies from beneficiaries and field staff were shared alongside short videos showcasing the Sallam Centre in Cairo and our vocational training efforts in Tripoli. Guests also enjoyed a silent auction and live musical performances, all curated to foster a spirit of generosity and reflection.
We raised almost £120,000 during the evening, which will fund our 2025 expansion of education, legal, mums and babies’ clinics, medical and other programming in Egypt. The gala served as a critical fundraiser and a space for strengthening partnerships and inspiring new support. The success of the evening underscores the essential role that community engagement plays in advancing our work and the shared belief that hope and recovery are possible when we come together.

Every Pregnancy Challenge
In March 2025, GWC proudly joined the global maternal health campaign spearheaded by Every Pregnancy (EP), participating in the 'For Mama Challenge' during Ramadan.
This campaign mobilised international attention and generated nearly $20 million in collective donations during March 2025 alone, building on the $13 million raised the previous year. GWC was honoured to be one of the UK-based delivery partners, championing maternal health interventions through our programmes for displaced Palestinian, Sudanese and other women in Cairo.
Our contribution included maternal mental health support, mother-and-baby classes, and the distribution of newborn kits and wellbeing packs from our Sallam Centre. These activities resonated with EP’s and our mission to ensure that every woman receives the care and dignity she deserves during pregnancy and early motherhood.
Participating in the 'For Mama Challenge' affirmed our commitment to protecting and empowering at-risk mothers and babies, especially those navigating displacement and crisis.

Where Our Beneficiaries Come From
This year, we have restructured our operations, closing our premises in Athens and focusing our humanitarian efforts in Egypt and Libya. In Libya, we provided emergency aid to flood victims, while in Egypt, we supported refugees from Sudan and Palestine with legal assistance, shelter, food, and other essentials.

PROJECTS & INITIATIVES
During the year, we launched several impactful projects designed to enhance community support, improve access to essential services, and foster educational opportunities across various regions.
VOCATIONAL FACILITY IN TRIPOLI
A new partnership is being developed to launch a vocational training centre in Tripoli, preparing young people for careers as ticketing and passenger service agents. With the opening of a new airport on the horizon, this initiative will empower local youth with the skills and opportunities to thrive in Libya’s expanding aviation sector.
SALLAM CENTRE IN CAIRO
In Cairo, a Peace Centre now provides refugees from Palestine and Sudan with vital services such as psychosocial support, maternity, postnatal and neonatal care, and legal assistance, helping families heal, rebuild, and integrate into their new communities.
REFUGEE HOUSING IN CAIRO
A new housing programme in Cairo provides six-month leased flats to refugee families, giving them a safe and stable place to rebuild their lives and plan for long-term resettlement.
EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS FOR OUT OF SCHOOL CHILDREN
A focused summer program will support out-of-school children from Gaza and Sudan at the Sallam Centre, who have missed up to two academic years, helping them catch up on essential learning and become ready to enrol in Egyptian schools.
LOCATING PARTNERS
Our vision is to expand a global network of partners dedicated to prevention and protection. By joining forces with organisations that share our values, we can amplify our collective impact and create a more coordinated, effective response to global challenges.
WEB PORTAL FOR MIGRANTS
With sufficient funding, we aim to create an accessible multilingual web portal to help migrants find essential information on healthcare, legal aid, housing, food, and other basic needs, empowering them to integrate more smoothly and rebuild their lives with confidence.

Gaza Aid Initiatives
Famine has been confirmed in Gaza, where hundreds, including many children have already died from starvation. Over half a million people face catastrophic hunger, and the health system has nearly collapsed with most hospitals damaged and medicines depleted. Since 2023, tens of thousands have been killed or injured, while violence and displacement continue to escalate across Gaza and the West Bank.
- WHO (World Health Organization)
Over the prior year (ended March 2024), we successfully dispatched 14 trucks carrying medical, surgical, and humanitarian supplies to communities in Gaza, providing crucial support to the health facilities and aid organisations. However, due to the closure of the Egypt-Gaza border this year, our ability to deliver assistance was significantly restricted. Despite these challenges, we managed to send 2 additional trucks, focused primarily on essential medical supplies, ensuring that lifesaving aid continued to reach those.

Digital Advocacy and Partnership Efforts Against Human Trafficking in Pakistan
We are actively addressing the use of digital platforms to promote human trafficking, with a focus on content originating from Pakistan and neighbouring South Asian countries targeting Europe.
In a major initiative, we co-funded a 25-minute anti-trafficking film in Pakistan, launched in October 2024, in partnership with a prominent social media influencer. The film featured human rights activists and government officials to raise awareness and drive action. This short film has been viewed by close to 500,000 people.

Reserves Policy
Free reserves (general funds less net book value of fixed assets) held on 31 March 2025 were £207,279(2024:£125,382), representing 10 months of operating costs.
As a guideline, the trustees aim to hold between 6 and 9 months of reserves, allowing the charity time to recover from any temporary income shortfalls
Risk Review
The funds of the charity at the end of the year were £207,279 (2024: £125,383), consisting of unrestricted funds of £171,316 (2024: £125,382) and restricted funds of £35,963 (2024: £Nil).
Further details of the charity’s performance can be found in the financial statements on pages 41 to 43 and the notes to the accounts on pages 44 to 57.
There was also income arising from restricted and unrestricted grants and donations from individuals.
The trustees continually monitor and regularly discuss any possible financial risk to the charity. This is discussed in conjunction with operational risks and their potential effect on the charity’s finances. The Executive Director and the trustees were responsible for implementing and ensuring compliance with the risk management strategy.
As part of our annual business planning cycle, GWC aims to build a comprehensive risk register that identifies key risks, the probability and impact of the risk and what actions can be taken to mitigate the risk. By way of example, one key risk facing GWC currently is:
----- Start of picture text -----
Gift Aid
3.3%
Restricted income

----- End of picture text -----
- Long-standing donors ending their support.
a. Probability: Medium
b. Impact: High
c. The severity of the risk: High
d. Mitigation: Diversification of funding streams, strengthening funder relationship management capacity, identifying and engaging with alternative funders, and identifying non-critical services that can be reduced if as needed.
Unrestricted Income 61.5%

Key Personnel
Conflict of interest
Hanan Ashegh, the Executive Director, is also a trustee of the charity. Fauzia Abbas-Dar, an existing trustee, also joined the charity as the Chief of Staff from Feb 2025. To manage any conflicts of interests, they do not attend any sections of the trustee meetings where their employment, remuneration or performance are discussed.
Remuneration of the staff
This subject is discussed at trustee meetings. For the current staff pay, market levels and affordability is considered when setting key staff remuneration.
Future Plans
The trustees have set the following objectives:
i. To continue to provide a free, high quality, accessible legal advice and information service, alongside other services to refugees in the regions where we work;
ii. To increase public awareness of GWC in the the UK as one of the leading organisations of refugee assistance;
iii. To advocate for refugee rights and influence policies and practices that ensure their protection and well-being.
iv. To research the unmet needs of refugees not currently taken up by GWC services and to expand the range of services to meet those needs, including geographical range;
The organisation has developed and evolved its activities to ensure the sustainable delivery of its objectives since launch. It continues to review and monitor these objectives against its strategies as the legal and political fields of refugee rights proceed through different landscapes. The plans for the future are to continue the delivery of the existing and new services as needed.

Statement of Responsibilities of the Trustees
Objectives and activities:
The trustees review the charity’s aims, objectives, and activities on an annual basis. This report outlines the activities undertaken during the reporting period, the outcomes achieved, and the extent to which the charity has met its stated objectives. The trustees consider the performance of key activities and the benefits delivered to the charity’s beneficiaries, ensuring that all activities remain aligned with the charity’s charitable purposes and governing document.
The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees’ annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently
-
Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent
-
State whether applicable UK Accounting Standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011.
They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Independent Examiners Report to the Trustees of Goodwill Caravan For the year ended 31 March 2025
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025 set out on pages 41 to 57.
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. The charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of ICAEW.
It is my responsibility to:
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5) (b) of the Charities Act, and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
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.
Other matters
Your attention is to drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared the accounts (financial statements) in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn.
We understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
- which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements:
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and
- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act
have not been met; or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025
1 Accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
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) issued in October 2019 - (Charities SORP (FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
Goodwill Caravan meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note.
The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £ sterling.
b Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern.
c Income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
d Donated services and facilities
Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised; refer to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution.
On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025 (continued)
e Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose.
Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity’s work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.
f Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
-
Costs of raising funds comprise the costs of activities undertaken to raise funds.
-
Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
g Allocation of support costs
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs which support the charity's programmes and activities. These costs have been allocated between cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities. The bases on which support costs have been allocated are set out in note 6.
h Operating leases
Operating leases are leases in which the title to the assets, and the risks and rewards of ownership, remain with the lessor. Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.
i Tangible fixed assets
Individual fixed assets costing £750 or more are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives. There are currently no fixed assets.
j Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025 (continued)
k Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
l Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
m Financial instruments
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
n Pensions
Employees of the charity are entitled to join a defined contribution scheme. The charity’s contribution is restricted to the contributions disclosed in note 8. There were no outstanding contributions at the year end. The costs of the defined contribution scheme are included within support and governance costs and allocated to the funds of the charity using the methodology set out in note 6.
- 2 Legal status of the charity
The charity is a charitable incorporated organisation and has no share capital. In the event of the charity being wound up the trustees and members of the charity are not liable for its debts. The registered office address is disclosed on page 1.
