Objectives and Activities


	SORP reference
Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document	Para 1.17	The preservation and protection of the environment for the public benefit, mainly but not exclusively in the Masaka region of Uganda, by support to: (a) The promotion of waste reduction, re-use, reclamation, recycling and improved waste management techniques; (b) Educating the public about environmental conservation, waste reduction and waste disposal.
Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts.	Para 1.17 and 1.19	The UK Charity Eco Brixs UK focuses on marketing and fundraising activities for its partner organisation, a Ugandan NGO, which is called ‘ECO BRIXS’ and is a registered NGO in Uganda with registration number 4042. It is often referred to as ‘Eco Brixs Uganda’ to distinguish it from the UK charity. The Ugandan NGO: The Ugandan entity, based in the district of Masaka in Uganda, uses the funds raised by the UK Charity to grow its recycling services and reduce pollution. The focus of the organisation is recycling plastic waste, as currently there are no waste management systems in Uganda, and it is estimated that 600 tonnes of plastic is disposed of each day in Uganda. Furthermore, this waste is often burnt or buried in unsafe landfills, posing a risk to both the environment and the community.

The NGO’s model is based on purchasing plastic waste from the community, therefore creating job opportunities to also tackle poverty in Uganda. Once the plastic is purchased, the NGO recycles this plastic into new items of value (Eco-Products and Plastic Flake), which it can sell. This helps the NGO to generate revenue to ensure it can keep paying the community for its plastic waste.

In addition to this, the NGO also focuses on:

Disability employment
Female empowerment
Youth Employment
Green education programmes for school pupils, youths and the wider population

How the UK Charity works in partnership with the Ugandan NGO:

The UK charity helps facilitate this work via fundraising, which helps the NGO to contribute to the preservation and protection of the Masaka environment, as well as promote and teach environmentally-friendly behaviours to the local people.

In its fifth financial year, the UK Charity raised funds of £290,822 to support this work. Within the year, it donated £235,139 to the Ugandan NGO.

Funds were raised via:

Donations from members of the public (£6,214)
Corporate Donation (£300)
Gift Aid (£381)
Grant funding (£271,959)
Sale of Carbon Credits (£9,550)
Providing a consultancy service (£2,418)

Note: Eco Brixs UK also received an additional £10,000 unrestricted funding in the form of an impact loan.

Note: whilst Eco Brixs UK received a further £221,588 under the CFYE programme in Year 5, this is income for its consortium partner, Taka Taka Solutions (see page 7-8 on this report). As these funds cannot be used to support Eco Brixs’ work and activities, this amount has been listed in Note ‘N8 Funds received as agent’ and not included in total income on the SOFA.

Alongside the UK charity’s direct financial contributions to the NGO, the UK charity also supports the Ugandan organisation in its own fundraising efforts, specifically by marketing the NGOs work and achievements. This has helped the Ugandan NGO to fundraise a further £88,992 that has been paid directly to that organisation. This includes grants from Petra Coleman and the

Commonwealth, as well as an impact loan from the JLL Foundation. This ‘marketing support’ has been largely achieved by the UK charity maintaining and developing the following: ● A website and blog ● Several social media platforms, growing the number of followers on each: ○ Facebook ○ Twitter ○ Instagram ○ YouTube ○ Linkedin ○ TikTok ● A monthly online newsletter Each method above has been used to promote the work of both organisations, stay in touch with supporters, and generate donations. In Year 5, the UK charity spent £12,653 to help raise funds for the organisation. The carbon offset programme that was established in 2021 3 has helped generate a further £9,550 in Year 5. This programme was set up as the plastic recycling process in Uganda creates ‘carbon savings’ when new products are created out of recycled plastic rather than using virgin plastic or other brand new materials (eg. timber). Therefore, Eco Brixs has the opportunity to sell carbon credits to external organisations and individuals to help them offset their carbon impact. This service helps protect the environment and educate the public about carbon emissions, whilst also raising funds to further support the development of Eco Brixs UK and Eco Brixs Uganda. The consultancy service has also continued since Year 3, whereby the CEO of Eco Brixs provides advice to external organisations on how they can set up their own recycling project in Africa, replicating the model of Eco Brixs (recycling plastic whilst creating collection jobs for the community). To date, Eco Brixs has advised organisations in Nigeria, South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo. This is helping Eco Brixs UK to contribute to the protection of the environment on an international scale while helping to raise funds to further the work in Uganda. Eco Brixs also secured its first impact loan in this financial year, which was a £10,000 loan from GivFunds, a registered charity (No. 1202036). Repayments are scheduled to begin in August 2024 across a period of 12 months at an interest rate of 0%.


		The impact loan is unrestricted and has been designated to support Eco Brixs UK’s fundraising costs. Eco Brixs is using these funds for the services of freelance fundraisers to help grow the charity’s income further and scale its impact in Uganda.

Details of donations to the NGO and resulting impact

£59,881 Donation - Tearfund Netherlands Grant

Tearfund Netherlands have supported Eco Brixs with grants since 2021. These funds are designed to mainly help the Ugandan NGO develop its recycling infrastructure at its main HQ (where the plastic waste is turned into EcoProducts), develop its collection network across Southern Uganda, and support some of the organisation’s core costs.

£21,426 to purchase recycling machinery to expand Eco Brixs’ recycling capacity

This payment allowed the NGO to:

Purchase a Sorting Conveyor Belt
Purchase a Cold Wash Tank
Install a Label Remover Machine

These new machines help to expand Eco Brixs’ recycling capacity, giving it the ability to recycle 100 tonnes of plastic a month.

The funds were also utilised to help expand Eco Brixs collection network across Southern Uganda, increasing the number of beneficiaries using the recycling service. This contributed to growing the number of people earning from the recycling programme, helping it grow from 3,000 to 4,000 people across the year.

£38,455 to maintain recycling machinery and grow Eco Brixs’ social impact

This payment allowed the NGO to:

Cover maintenance costs for the machinery
Support core costs of the staff who maintain the machinery
Create 5 Women Led Village Savings Groups for Plastic Collectors
Create 5 Ugandan Intern Opportunities
Train 381 Church Leads in waste management practices to relay to their congregations

£18,873 Eekhorst Foundation

This grant was awarded to Eco Brixs UK by the Eekhorst Foundation in the Netherlands. The £18,873 was donated to fund the expansion of the recycling factory in Uganda

where plastic waste is transformed into the brand new EcoProducts.

The expansion of the factory space provides room to hold more recycling machinery and store up to 100 tonnes of processed plastic waste, which is ready for resale of plastic flakes.

This helps to increase Eco Brixs’ overall recycling capacity as an organisation, which means it can clean up more plastic waste from across Uganda, whilst creating more job opportunities for marginalised people.

£53,463 Challenge Fund for Youth Employment (CFYE)

The Challenge Fund for Youth Employment aims to create jobs for young people in Sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East.

This grant was secured by submitting a joint application with the recycling organisation Taka Taka Solutions under a consortium arrangement.

Under the conditions of the grant, at least one member of the consortium needed to be from the private sector, with Taka Taka Solution fulfilling this role. Furthermore, the ‘Lead Organisation’ needed to be working in Uganda, with Eco Brixs fulfilling this role.

Taka Taka Solutions operates in Nairobi, Kenya and they recycle a variety of materials under their mission ‘ We give waste a second life’ . They operate a similar model to Eco Brixs.

Within this arrangement, both organisations have targets to fulfil to meet the grant requirements, which are reviewed by CFYE each quarter. Meeting targets subsequently triggers the release of a quarterly payment.

The entire grant award was for a sum of €1,061,659 (£910,458), of which 25% was allocated to Eco Brixs (the Ugandan NGO and Eco Brixs UK) and 75% was awarded to the larger organisation in the partnership, Taka Taka Solutions.

The payments of the grant are spread over 9 payments, which take place approximately each quarter across 2023 - 2025.

Therefore based on the current budget (and meeting each milestone target) each organisation will receive the following over the course of two years:

Eco Brixs €261,252 (£224,044)
Taka Taka Solutions €800,407 (£686,414)

The first grant payment from CFYE was paid towards the end of Year 4, which allowed the Uganda NGO to grow its core team in Masaka to 33 full-time in 2022-23.

In this financial year, a further 4 payments from CFYE have allowed the Uganda NGO’s team to grow further:

£12,660 to create a Monitoring & Evaluation Team

This allowed Eco Brixs to create an M&E team of 4 to measure impact of Eco Brixs’ work on a more in-depth scale. For example, to:

Set up systems to measure how much plastic Eco Brixs buys from the local people, therefore measuring the environmental and economic impact of the programme
Conduct interviews with beneficiaries to gather qualitative data of how Eco Brixs’ work has made a difference on people on a individual level
Conduct baseline surveys across the collection network to assess how the well-being of informal collectors has been positively impacted by Eco Brixs’ work

£26,202 to expand the Collection Network

This helped support the growth of Eco Brixs’ collection network, by supporting the creation of 29 Recycling Hubs. Largely, it helped Eco Brixs grow its team at the recycling factory and in the field, which helped the organisation grow from recycling 25 tonnes a month to 75 tonnes a month.

£8,054 to run Health Camps for Plastic Collectors

Eco Brixs ran a series of health camps for its Plastic Collectors, helping 200 of them to access medical care.

Plastic Collectors were also provided with PPE to use when they collect plastic in the field.

£6,547 to support Core Costs

This helped support core costs of the NGO, specifically around staff who work in the recycling factory, allowing the NGO’s overall team to grow from 33 staff to 64 staff.

Overall, the CFYE grant is helping Eco Brixs to recycle more plastic, create more green jobs and improve it internal processes (eg. financial management, M&E processes, and marketing) by providing funding so Eco Brixs can create more jobs.

£96,923 Expanding Eco Brixs across Southern Uganda

£62,923 to expand Eco Brixs to Mbarara and surrounding Districts

This funding was raised from various foundations to help Eco Brixs expand its reach across the South of Uganda by establishing baling sites and Recycling Hubs across the districts neighbouring the district of Masaka where Eco Brixs is based.

This will help the organisation support more communities, recycle more plastic, and create more jobs for marginalised people.

Note: Of this £62,923 donated to the Ugandan NGO, £62,094 was donated in this current financial year and a further £829 will be donated in the next financial year.

£34,000 to expand Eco Brixs to Nakivale Refugee Settlement

This funding was secured from the JAC Trust at the end of Year 4 to allow Eco Brixs to the refugee settlements of Uganda for the first time. This project allows Eco Brixs to expand its mission to support a new marginalised group alongside young people, women and people with disabilities.

This project will see Eco Brixs establish a connection network of balers and Recycling Hubs across the Nakivale Refugee Settlement, recycling plastic and creating green jobs for people.

Note: Of this £34,000 donated to the Ugandan NGO, £33,000 was donated in this current financial year and a further £1,000 will be donated in the next financial year.

£6,000 Tearfund UK

This grant was awarded to Eco Brixs UK by Tearfund UK to run an advocacy programme focused on long-term policy and mind-set changes in Uganda around the processes of waste management.

The focus of the project is to create a Green Job HandBook that will be presented to local leaders to help them understand the opportunities for their communities in green jobs.

Further Financial Support for the Ugandan NGO

In addition to donations and grants, Eco Brixs UK has also supported the Ugandan NGO through the following expenditure:

£32,923 - Employee Costs

This expenditure has secured the services of 2 professionals who work for Eco Brixs UK on a full-time basis. Collectively, their work supports the growth of both the UK and Ugandan entity by:

Ensuring all charity funds are accounted for and spent as agreed with the UK Board of Trustees
Raising funds:
£661,127 has been raised to date by the UK Charity (of which, 79% (£525,432) has been donated to the Ugandan NGO)
An additional £312,000 has been raised that has been paid directly to the Ugandan NGO
Building partnerships with charities, businesses and academic institutions to support Eco Brixs’ mission. Eg. partnerships with the global charity Tearfund and the international Recycling organisations Taka Taka
Marketing Eco Brixs’ work digitally
Providing project management and financial skills

These costs were covered by a combination of unrestricted and restricted funds, which can viewed in more detail on Note 6 of the accounts.

£367 - Financial Accountability

Eco Brixs UK spent £367 to provide the Ugandan NGO with the accounting software, ‘Quickbooks’. It pays a monthly fee for this software, alongside its own subscription for Eco Brixs UK, to save the NGO this cost.

This helps the Ugandan NGO to accurately manage its dayto-day finances, as well as provide financial information to the UK charity with regards to accountability, especially in relation to spending of donated funds from Eco Brixs UK.

Increased Impact

Through the support of the UK charity, the Ugandan NGO has been able to significantly grow its environmental, economic, and social impact over Year 5. This has helped Eco Brixs to protect the environment in Masaka, whilst helping many more beneficiaries.

Specifically over Year 5, the Ugandan NGO has been able to:

Recycle a further 575 tonnes of plastic waste across Masaka and surrounding areas in Southern Uganda
Provide 4,000 vulnerable community members with the opportunity to earn income through plastic collection, many of them being people with disabilities, women and people living in poverty.
Educate 25,000 school pupils across 53 schools on the 3 Rs (Reduce, Reuse and Recycle), resulting in increased environmental awareness and more recycling taking place at the schools

To date, this means the Ugandan NGO has been able to remove 1,327 tonnes of plastic waste from the environment in Uganda. Furthermore, the community has been given access to widespread plastic recycling services which were not available in the area prior to the establishment of Eco Brixs.

investment policy adopted
A description of the principal risks facing the charity		The trustees and staff of Eco Brixs UK conducted a detailed risk review in March 2025. This analysed the principal risks facing the charity, alongside solutions to manage those risks. These risks are monitored and updated regularly as they are shared within Eco Brixs UK’s monthly management reports. The following 10 key risks identified were:
Risk		Controls

In-sufficient cash flow within the Ugandan NGO (eg. due to market price and demand for recycled plastic dropping) requiring increased financial donations from Eco Brixs UK		There is a risk that the Ugandan NGO may need a sudden or unexpected donation from Eco Brixs UK to support its cash flow if the price paid for recycled plastic flake drops or if creditors are late in paying their invoices. Insufficient cash flow for the Ugandan NGO risks disrupting its operations, reducing plastic collectors income, and reducing the impact of both Eco Brixs Uganda and Eco Brixs UK. Therefore, the Eco Brixs UK board will seek to help where possible, making decisions in the long-term interests of both organisations and in line with itsReserves Policy andFinancial Controls Policy. The risk is also mitigated by alternative sources of income, for example grants and the strong relationships in place with funders.
CEO & Founder going on long-term leave (eg. sickness) or leaving Eco Brixs		There is a risk that the CEO and founder of Eco Brixs UK (and the Ugandan NGO) could leave the organisation in the future or go on long-term leave (eg. due to sickness). The current CEO possesses a unique set of experience and skills making them indispensable to both organisations, as they cover key areas such as fundraising, managing the recycling service in Uganda, strategy development, leadership, and provide accountability for how funds are spent. To help reduce this risk, the following steps have been taken: ●UK Operations manager and twofreelance fundraisers to cover fundraising element ●A COO (Chief Operating Officer) has been installed within the Ugandan NGO, who works closely with the CEO and is able to take over the CEO’s

responsibilities of running the programme when
the CEO is away
Donations from Eco Brixs As Eco Brixs UK donates the majority of its income to a
UK being spent separate organisation (the Ugandan NGO), there is a risk
fraudulently in Uganda that donated funds will not be spent in Uganda as
intended by the UK Board of Trustees.
Therefore, strict financial controls are in place, which
include the following policies:
● Financial Controls Policy
● Monitoring & Verifying the End Use of Funds Policy
● Anti-Corruption Policy
● Whistleblowing Policy
● Due Diligence Policy
The CEO of Eco Brixs UK (who is based in Uganda) is also
responsible for ensuring donated funds are spent in
Uganda as outlined by agreements made between the
Board and CEO prior to any transfer being made. This
helps to significantly manage this risk.
The trustees also maintain a constant eye on the charity’s
finances through monthly reports and team meetings, and
one of the trustees (the Treasurer) is a qualified Chartered
Accountant.
Delays in receiving Like any organisation, there is a risk that Eco Brixs UK’s
scheduled grant payment performance could be negatively impacted by the late
from donors affecting cash receipt of agreed payments.
flow and operations
To reduce the risk of this, the following steps have been
carried out:
● Good relationships have been developed with
funders to promote good communication about all
issues, include delays in payment, so any problems
can be addressed as early as possible
● Expansion of the number of donors supporting Eco
Brixs UK has helped to reduce the impact of delays
by any one funder
● Diversification of income sources (eg. public
donations, grants, trading income)
● A Reserves Policy is in place

costs and ensure the continuation and expansion of the
Ugandan NGO, which is primarily how Eco Brixs UK fulfils
its charitable objectives.
To help reduce this risk, Eco Brixs UK has:
● Developed multiple revenue streams
● Secured a good number of different funding
partners
● Has grown its fundraising capacity to 4 staff (2
employees and 2 professional, experienced
freelance fundraisers)
Furthermore Eco Brixs has several policies in place to
ensure it manages the reserves it already holds efficiently
(eg. Financial Controls Policy and a Reserves Policy).
Risk of digital software Eco Brixs UK uses a number of digital platforms in its

email accounts, social one or more of them being hacked by an external party.
media)
To reduce this risk, Eco Brixs UK has a Data Protection
Policy in place that outlines steps to reduce the risk of any
hackings.
Sudden increase in As with managing the finances of any entity, there is a risk
demand for funds or of unexpected costs arising, especially when the
unexpected large expense organisation is rapidly growing, like Eco Brixs UK.
To reduce the risk of unexpected costs negatively
impacting Eco Brixs UK, the following steps have been
taken:
● Minimum Reserves policy in place
● Budget in place to help manage unexpected
expenses
● Diversification and expansion of the number of
income sources for the charity
● Expanding the organisations fundraising capacity
from 2 employees to a team of 4
Pressure to use minimum There is a risk that the trustees of Eco Brixs UK may feel
reserves to support pressure to use its minimum reserves to support the
Uganda charity, e.g. when Ugandan NGO if it faces a shortfall in funding, in order to

Note 2 Accounting policies 2.2 INCOME

This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.

Recognition of income These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when: · the charity becomes entitled to the resources; · it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and	Yes No N/a	Yes No N/a	Yes No N/a	Yes No N/a
· the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. Offsetting There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102. Grants and donations genearally ... Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP). In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP). ... except for As noted in details below on Grants made, where a project is being done by a third party and we have already sent the money over to complete this project. Legacies Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met. Government grants The charity has received government grants in the reporting period Tax reclaims on donations and gifts Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise. Contractual income and performance related grants This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or services or met the performance related conditions. Donated goods Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so. The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt. In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution. Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'. Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when receivable. Donated services and facilities Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably. Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the SOFA. Support costs The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs. Volunteer help The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report. Income from interest, royalties and dividends This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured reliably. Income from membership subscriptions Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and Legacies.		TRUE	ü	ü

Settlement of insurance claims Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other income in the SoFA. Investment gains and losses This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. 2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES 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. Governance and support costs Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its 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. Grants with performance conditions Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output. The above is N/A but there are other restrictions on money sent over to Uganda, we have taken the stance as below as our accoun Grants with restrictive conditions There are grants the UK has received specifically for projects that the Eco Brix Uganda NGO #4042 is comp received monies in advance, in order to give them the cashflow to do and start these projects. For our accou transfer of the grant as expenditure, and even though the money has not yet been spent or project finalised, made - so the grants payments are recognised in the SoFA at the point of transfer NOT after the recipient of project. There is detailed information in the TAR about all the grants in and payments to Uganda to further u of each payment made to them. The income received (grant in) that relates to the above payments Where the above line applies and payments have already been made, even if conditions to grants received been deferred, as this would skew the balance of the SOFA as we have already passed the money on to do controls in place to ensure Uganda meet the requirements and contracts to recuperate that back the money good and open working relations between us to enable this. Therefore, if any of these such grants i.e. receiv Uganda to do that project, should have been deferred there would also be a debit raised for this side of the effect is all about the same. So as above, for proportionality we have not done either of these journals. The this information openly in a narrative form Grants payable without performance conditions Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be recognised. Redundancy cost The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period. Deferred income Please see the above comments on deferred income. We only deferred one grant where payments are received based on project outcomes not spending (and the grant body can claim back all unspent grant and so the balance as at 30/6/2024 was fully deferred). However, the Charity's employees continually review restricted income available for support costs, and ensure that these are used against such costs and we currently have no concerns that it will be needed to be paid back if all things remaining the same Creditors The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts Provisions for liabilities A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date Basic financial instruments The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per paragraph 11.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19, FRS102 SORP. 2.4 ASSETS Tangible fixed assets for use by charity These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least 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.

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 progress Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net 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 Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at 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. Current asset investments 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 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.	They are valued at cost.

12.1 Please complete this note if a defined contribution pension scheme is operated.

We use NEST as our Pension Scheme, which is a defined contribution pension scheme, and so this note is not required.

The total cost to the employer is in note 11.1 and, due to grants received covering staff costs, in 2023/24 this amount for pensions was funded by restricted funds. In 2022/23, these pension costs were funded by unrestricted funds.

In both years the cost has been split over the SOFA categories in line with the time spent on different activities by the staff it relates to.
