The financial statements have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulation 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair view’.
- b) Going Concern
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Trust’s Ability to continue as a going concern.
- c) Income
All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
d) Expenditure
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.
e) Allocation of Support Costs
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities.
