Achievements and Performance

	SORP reference
Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole.	Para 1.20	The Battle Cancer Program was run at 5 locations around the UK and provided tailored functional fitness programs to 25 people recovering from cancer. The results of the Programs show enormous progressions in the strength and cardiovascular fitness of the participants, in some cases, lifting strength increased by over 150% and recovery times reduced by a third. Whilst physical results show the effectiveness and benefit of the programming, the reviews, feedback and testimonials from those who have undertaken the Program show huge improvements in confidence and mental health, with participants reporting they felt supported through some of the most difficult times in their lives, finding community in those around them and feeling both safe and motivated by their coaches. The charity attended many events with the help of volunteers which has helped raise awareness the charity and encouraged people to choose “The Battle Cancer Program” in their fundraising endeavours. This has left us in good stead going into the 2nd year of the charity with more gym locations and more people signed up to participate in our program.

Additional information (optional) You may choose to include further statements where relevant about:

Achievements against objectives set	Para 1.41	The objective was to launch the charity, establish fundraising methods and implement the Battle Cancer Program in a minimum of five locations, with a target of eight people per location.

			We achieved eight locations and a total of
			25 participants. While we overachieved
			the number of locations, it was harder
			than anticipated recruiting participants to
			join the Programs, and so did not reach
			our target in every location.
			The fundraising objective was to
			fundraise enough funds to cover the
	Performance of fundraising		target of five locations and employ one

	set		We achieved this target, by employing a
			part-time member of staff in November
			2021, and fundraising enough to cover
			the eight locations run.
			There were no investment objectives set.

2 Accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A smaller entities - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006 (as applicable to companies subject to the small companies' regime).

Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies certain items are shown at fair value.

Revenue recognition

Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and provision of services in the ordinary course of the company’s activities. Turnover is shown net of sales/value added tax, returns, rebates and discounts.

The company recognises revenue when:

The amount of revenue can be reliably measured;

it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity;

and specific criteria have been met for each of the company's activities.

Tangible assets

Tangible assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

The cost of tangible assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.

Depreciation

Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land and properties under construction over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Asset class

Office equipment

Depreciation method and rate 25% per annum reducing balance basis

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.

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

The cost of finished goods and work in progress comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. At each reporting date, stocks are assessed for impairment. If stocks are impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell; the impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Trade creditors

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 company 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.

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

Defined contribution pension obligation

A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.
