## **Notes to the Financial Statements**
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under the historic cost convention and in line 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 UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), in Sterling.
The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
‡ The charity changed its accounting basis from cash to accruals, effective this financial year. Totals from the last financial year, including funds at year end (previously £43,276), have been restated accordingly.
Donations are recognised when receivable, receipt is probable, and the amount can be reliably measured. Where donations are made through a payment or funding intermediary, they are recognised upon settlement and at the settlement amount. Income tax recoverable is recognised at the time the claim is accepted.
Expenditure and liabilities are recognised once there is an obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required, and the amount can be reliably measured. All expenditure and liabilities are accounted for on an accruals basis.
Restricted funds are assets specifically designated or donated for a specific purpose. Unrestricted funds are assets that may be used for meeting general objectives of the charity, as determined by the trustees.
There were no employees during the year. Trustees did not receive any remuneration.
Details on institutions and purposes that receive grants from the charity can be accessed at www.littlegiving.org.
