The members have not required the charitable incorporated organisation to have an audit in line with Section 144 of the Charities act 2011. As the income for the year is less than £10,000 no independent examination has been carried out. 

The trustees acknowledge their responsibilities for 

- (a) ensuring that the charitable incorporated organisation keeps accounting records in accordance with sections 130 and 131 of the Charities Act 2011. 

- (b) preparing financial statements which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable incorporated organisation as at the end of each financial year and of its surplus or deficit for each financial year in accordance with the requirements of Sections 132 and 333 and which otherwise comply with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 relating to financial statements, so far as applicable to the charitable incorporated organisation. 

The financial statements were approved by the Board of Trustees on **15 May 2025** and were signed on its behalf by:

## **The Friends of Atsede & Indie’s Clinic** 

## **Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 15 April 2024** 

## **1. Accounting policies** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The Friends of Atsede & Indie’s Clinic (also known as Cit.A.SH) is a charity limited by guarantee in the United Kingdom. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity. The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 3 of these Report and Accounts.  The nature of the charity’s operations and principal activities are in raising funds for the delivery of equipment and/or additional services for a health clinic based in Ethiopia. 

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. 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 on 16 July 2014, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015. 

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value.  The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. 

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below.  These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated. 

## **Incoming resources** 

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the charity is legally entitled to the income after any performance conditions have been met, the amount can be measured reliably and it is probable that the income will be received. 

No amount is included in the financial statements for volunteer time in line with the SORP (FRS 102). 

● Voluntary income by way of grants, donations and gifts is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable and when the amounts are known with certainty and are measurable. 

● Donated facilities and donated professional services are recognised in income at their fair value when their economic benefit is probable, it can be measured reliably and the charity has control over the item. Fair value is determined on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity. For example the amount the charity would be willing to pay in the open market for such facilities and services. A corresponding amount is recognised in expenditure. 

● Incoming resources from grants, where related to performance and specific deliverables, are accounted for as the charity earns the right to consideration by its performance.  Where income is received in advance of performance it is treated as deferred income and included within creditors. 

## **Resources expended** 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payments to third parties, it is probable that the settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 

14 



## **The Friends of Atsede & Indie’s Clinic** 

## **Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 15 April 2024** 

## **1. Accounting policies  Resources expended (continued)** 

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. 

All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the SoFA on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource.  Costs relating to a particular activity comprise both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. 

## **Fund accounting** 

## **Restricted funds** 

Restricted funds represent grants and donations received which are subject to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **Unrestricted funds and designated funds** 

Unrestricted funds represent funds that are expendable at the discretion of the directors in the furtherance of the objects of the charity.  Such funds may be held in order to finance both working capital and capital investment. 

Designated funds are those funds which are unrestricted in nature but which have been designated by the directors to be used in a particular manner. 

## **Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year** 

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure. 

## **Recognition of liabilities** 

Liabilities are recognised when an obligation arises to transfer economic benefits as a result of past transactions or events. 

## **Tax** 

The charity is an exempt charity within the meaning of schedule 3 of the Charities Act 2011 and is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. 

## **Going concern** 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.
