One of the highlights of this has been the introduction of our diamond art classes. This has been
an outstanding success and improved many people's self-confidence.
We have held a wide range of other activities, such as craft and sewing classes, chair-based
exercises, afternoon teas with bingo and community lunches with a quiz. These activities have
been an outstanding success and brought the community together.
We have also introduced children's football and reintroduced our children's club. We have ran

THE OPENING DOORS PROJECT
TRUSTEES, REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST JULY 2024
In the school holidays and half term, we have run playschemes funded by Holiday Activities and
Food (HAF). These have met the needs of families who struggle to feed their families during this
period, and we have provided breakfast and lunch as per the government criteria.
We have had grants from various sources, such as National Lottery, Feeding Liverpool, Feeding
Britain, Cycling UK Torus Foundation, The Duchy of Lancaster to name but a few to help us
deliver our activities.
We have one employee, Gayle Connor Mccreith, who is our project coordinator. Her talent,
foresight energy and enthusiasm are immeasurable. On behalf of the trustees, I wish to place
on record our thanks, also a big thank you to our amazing volunteers.
The trustees have had an oversight of the funds in our bank account regularly over the year.
They have continued to monitor that funding has been assigned to the activities specified by the
funder.
The trustees have also been mindful of the requirement to build up unrestricted funds in our
account, in the event of emergencies.
In the forthcoming year, we aim to build and improve even further on our current activities.
We are community led and base our activities on the needs and aspirations of our community.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Total income for the year ended was £109,654 (2023.. £125,536), of which £92,621 (2023..
£117,979) related to funding for projects upon which restrictions are placed.
Total expenditure for the year ended was £105,567 (2023= £125,361) of which £95,201 (2023..
£118,467) related to restricted funds, leaving a surplus for the year ended of £4,087 (2023..
surplus £175).
At 31st July 2024 the Charitable Incorporated Organisation's reserves stood at £48,521 (2023-
£44,434> of which £39,083 (2023.. £41,663) represented restricted funds.
Risk Management
The main risks to which the Charitable Incorporated Organisation is exposed as identified by the
Trustees have been considered and systems have been established to mitigate those risks.
The trustees monitor our spending of grants and our day to day spending robustly. We have a
policy to only spend our funding on what we are restricted to. We review our finances at each
Trustee meeting, the main risk would be iffunders became so stretched that they could notfuture
fund us. The trustees would then manage and direct that risk, accordingly, proactively seeking
new pockets of funding.
Reserve5 Policy
It is the policy of the Charitable Incorporated Organisation to maintain unrestricted funds, which
are free reserves for redundancy provision, lease commitments and one month's running costs
should no further funding be received.
As at the end of the financial year ended the unrestricted funds totalled £9,438. The Charitable
Incorporated Organisation requires £3,510 for redundancy provision, £6,000 for lease
commitments and £864 for one month's running costs. (Total £10,374).

THE OPENING DOORS PROJECT
TRUSTEES, REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST JULY 2024
The trustees have also been mindful of the requirement to build up unrestricted funds in our
account, in the event of emergencies.
In the forthcoming year, we aim to build and improve even further on our current activities.
Plans for the Future
The trustees, along with our project co-ordinator, are always evaluating our services we provide
to our community, we are service led and consult our service users on a frequent basis. We are
regularly looking to provide new services as a follow on from these consultations, after evaluation
by the trustees.
Our aim next year is to substantially build up our unrestricted funds, with a view to building up
our reserves.
We will be aiming to increase our team of paid workers, along with sessional staff, to help
improve and expand the services we provide.
We currently have an asset of an ageing vehicle, and we will be working to identify funding to
replace this van with a newer model.
We intend to expand our food hub, to deliver food waste cooking courses. We see this as a
priority, and it will really help our community.
We also intend to increase our provision for 0-3-year-olds, along with support and signposting
for their parents.
We also plan to develop a lifestyle programme for all our service users. This will go some way
to increase their quality of life, and wellbeing.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST JULY 2024
1. Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised
at cost or transaction value unless othe￿iSe stated in the relevant note(s} to these accounts.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of
Recommended Practice.. Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in
accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of
Ireland (FRS102) (SORP 2019) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United
Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1s1 January 2019) and Charities Act
2011.
The accounts are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Charitable
Incorporated Organisation. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to
the nearest £.
The Charitable Incorporated Organisation has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP
for Charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
Going concern
At the time of approving the accounts, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the
Charitable Incorporated Organisation has adequate resources to continue in operational
existence for the foreseeable future. The Trustees have therefore adopted the going con￿rn
basis of accounting in preparing the accounts.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are the Charitable Incorporated Organisation, free reserves available for
the Trustees to apply in accordance with the Charitable Incorporated Organisation's
objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific restrictive conditions imposed by the donor. All
restricted funds are accounted for as restricted income and expenditure.
Income recognition
All income is recognised once the Charitable Incorporated Organisation has entitlement to the
income, there is sufficient certainty of receipt and so it is probable that the income will be
received, and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Donations and legacies comprise of donations which are recognised in the accounts when
received, with the exception of known legacies which are accounted for when their receipt is
certain.
Income from charitable activities is recognised on an accrual's basis except for grants
receivable, which are recognised on the date on which their unconditional payment is
confirmed by the donor.
Income from other trading activities relates to fundraising bingo and is recognised when the
amount is certain.
Fixed Assets
Capital expenditure is stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulaled depreGiation.
Depreciation is provided to write off the cost of each asset over its expected useful life.

THE OPENING DOORS PROJECT
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST JULY 2024
Expenditure recognition
Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the
Charitable Incorporated Organisation to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be
required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
All expenditure is accounted for on an accrual's basis. All expenses, including support costs
and governance costs, are allocaled or apportioned to the applicable expenditure headings
in the Statement of Financial Activities. SLtpport and governance costs are applied to
unrestricted funds unless specifically included in the restrictions, as specified by the donor.
Expenditure on charitable activities relate to the operation of the Charitable Incorporated
Organisation comprising of direct charitable expenditure to meet the objectives of the
Charitable Incorporated Organisation. Support and governance costs relate to the
management and operation of the organisation and also compliance with constitutional and
statutory requirements in producing the annual report. These are dealt with in the Statement
of Financial Activities when payment has been approved by the Charitable Incorporated
Organigation.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-
term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts.
Financial instruments
The Charitable Incorporated Organisation has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11
'Basic Financial Instruments, and Section 12 '0ther Financial Instruments Issues, of FRS 102
to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Charitable Incorporated Organisation's balance
sheet when the Charitable Incorporated Organisation becomes party to the contractual
provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial
statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and
there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability
simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially
measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at
amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a
financing transaction, where the Iransaction is measured at the present value of the future
receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within
one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at
transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt
instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate
of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate
method.

Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the Charitable Incorporated Organisation's accounting policies, the
Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying
amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The
estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors
that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to
accounting eslimates are recognised in the year ended in which the estimate is revised where
the revision affects only that year ended, or in the year ended of the revision and future year
ended where the revision affects both current and future year ended.
All expenditure is accounted for on an accrual's basis. All expenses, including support costs
and governance Gosls, are allocated or apportioned to the applicable expenditure headings
in the Statement of Financial Activities. Support and governance costs are applied to
unrestricted funds unless specifically included in the restrictions, as specified by the donor.
