Trustees' Report

The trustees present the annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2024.

Objectives and activities

Objects and aims

The charity collects surplus food, which has no commercial value, from the Supermarkets, and distributes it free of charge to charities and individuals, wholly in support of its primary aims and objectives.

The objects of Surplus to Supper are bridging the gap between food waste and food poverty locally. We take good quality surplus food from across the food industry and distribute it to local schools, charities and individuals who are in need by reason of ill health, disability, hardship and social circumstances.

We work with front line teams, taking pressure off them by providing culturally relevant and nutritious meals and supporting vunerable people. We currently support 150 front line charities, schools, disability and elderly charities and provide meals for a minimum of 3,000 families a week.

Public benefit

The trustees are fully aware of the guidance on public benefit, our activities support all members of the local community in general.

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.

Achievements and performance

We have once again met the ever increasing needs of the community, we have recruited more volunteers, supported more front line charities, made more collections from supermarkets and distributed more food. We hve increased our storage and cooking facilities, freezers and chillers giving us ability to reach further into the community and meet the challenge of food poverty.

Financial review

The charity is pleased to report a surplus of £29,013, compared to £62,515 for the year ended 31st March 2023 and is satisfied the finances are in a positive position for the coming year.

Policy on reserves

The policy for holding reserves is to meet current going concern obligations and to have the ability to expand operations to meet the needs of the community.

Unrestricted reserves held at 31 March 2024 were £136,409 (2023 - £122,188) Restricted reserves held at 31 March 2024 were £27,991 (2023 - £13,200)

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2024

1 Accounting policies

Statement of compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the second edition of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

Basis of preparation

Surplus to Supper Trust CIO meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts.

Going concern

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.

Income and endowments

Voluntary income including donations, gifts, legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general nature is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.

Expenditure

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.

Tangible fixed assets

Individual fixed assets costing £1500.00 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation and amortisation

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:

Asset class Depreciation method and rate
Motor Vehicles 25% on reducing balance
Plant and equipment - Catering equipment 3 years straight line
Plant and equipment - Cold room equipment 25% on reducing balance

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Page 8

Surplus to Supper Trust CIO

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2024 (continued)

Trade creditors

are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
