Structure and management reporting
The trustees are ultimately responsible for the policies, activities, and assets of the charity.

When necessary, the trustees seek advice and support from the charity’s professional advisers including investment managers, solicitors, and accountants.

David Hince and Gabriel MacGregor were both subsequently appointed on 6 September 2020.
At any time there must be a minimum of three trustees.
There is no maximum number of trustees that may be appointed to the CIO.
In selecting individuals for appointment the charity trustees have regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the CIO.
Trustees’ responsibilities statement
The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees’ report and accounts in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare accounts for each financial period which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the income and expenditure of the charity for that period. In preparing these accounts, the trustees are required to:
-
♦ select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
♦ observe the methods and principles in Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable to the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102);
-
♦ make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
♦ state whether applicable United Kingdom Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the accounts; and
-
♦ prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.

Principal accounting policies 31 March 2021
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the accounts are laid out below.
Basis of preparation
These accounts have been prepared for the period from incorporation on 12 June 2020 to 31 March 2021.
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policies below or the notes to these accounts.
The accounts 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 United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (Charities SORP FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.
Assessment of going concern
The trustees have assessed whether the use of the going concern assumption is appropriate in preparing these accounts. The trustees have made this assessment in respect to a period of one year from the date of approval of these accounts.
The trustees of the charity have concluded that there are no material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees are of the opinion that once the charity commences activity, it will have sufficient resources to meet its liabilities as they fall due.
Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement
Other than the assessment of going concern, the preparation of the accounts did not require the trustees to make any significant judgements or estimates.
Income recognition
Income is recognised in the period in which the charity has entitlement to the income, the amount of income can be measured reliably, and it is probable that the income will be received.
Expenditure recognition
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
