||I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above<br>charity (“the charity”) for the year ended 31/08/2023<br>As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the<br>accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011<br>(“the Act”).<br>I report in respect of my examination of the Charity’s accounts carried out<br>under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I<br>have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission<br>under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.<br>I have completed my examination.  I confirm that no material matters have<br>come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me<br>cause to believe that in, any material respect:|



- the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or 

- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

- the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

**Liability recognition** Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty. 

Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. **Governance  and support** Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its **costs** compliance with regulation and good practice. 

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. Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of **Grants with performance** service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the **conditions** recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output. Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to **Grants payable without** realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be **performance conditions** recognised. **Redundancy cost** The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period. **Deferred income** No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts. The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade **Creditors** discounts A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently **Provisions for liabilities** measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date **Basic financial** The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per paragraph 10.7 FRS102 SORP.  Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 **instruments** to 11.19, FRS102 SORP. **2.4 ASSETS Tangible fixed assets for** These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least **use by charity** They are valued at cost. 

The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.2. **Intangible fixed assets** The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody or legal rights.  The amortisation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.5 They are valued at cost. **Heritage assets** The charity has heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic, scientific, technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held  and maintained principally for their contribution to knowledge and culture.  The depreciation rates and methods used as disclosed in note 9.6.1.4. They are valued at cost. **Investments** Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued at initially at cost  and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year end.  The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments **Stocks and work in** Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net **progress** realisable value. Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value based on the service potential provided by items of stock. Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract. Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at **Debtors** settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity.  Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received. 

Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract. 

The charity has has investments which it holds for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date less than one year. These include cash on deposit and cash **Current asset investments** equivalents with a maturity date of less than one year held for investment purposes rather than to meet short term cash commitments as they fall due. 

They are valued at fair value except where they qualify as basic financial instruments.
