GHS RESERVES POLICY

It is the policy of GHS to maintain free reserves at a level which balances us objectives to develop and support services with our need to remain financially stable.

A minimum level of free reserves equating to at least three months of unrestricted expenditure is considered sufficient to cover management, administration and support costs and to respond to emergency needs which arise from time to time.

The Board of Trustees will regularly review the operation of this policy.

Independent Examiner’s Report

To the Trustees of GOLD HEART SUPPORT

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 02[nd] February 2024 set out on pages seven to twelve.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The trustees of the charity are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustee considers that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act), and that an independent examination is required.

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:

Basis of Independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a true and fair view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statements below.

Independent examiner’s statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:

1.

a) Accounting basis

These accounts have been prepared on the receipts and payments basis under section 42(3) of the Charities Act 1993 and the Statement of Recommended Practice on Accounting by Charities published in March 2008. The adoption of the revised SORP has resulted in reclassification of some items.

b) Incoming resources

i) Voluntary income

ii) Bank interest

Bank interest is included in the income and expenditure account on receipt.

c) Resources expended

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis.

d) Fixed assets and depreciation

Fixed assets are included at cost. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset over its expected useful life using the reducing balance method. Assets are depreciated as follows:

e) Restricted and unrestricted funds

Income received for restricted purposes is included in a separate restricted fund against which appropriate expenditure is allocated. Restricted funds are those funds which represent grants and donations for a specific purpose. Upon full performance of the purpose of the grant, any surplus is then retrievable by the donor. Income generated for the objects of the charity without further specified purpose is allocated to unrestricted funds. Accumulated surpluses may be retained by the church and are expendable at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the church’s objects. There were no restricted funds during the year.

Accounting policies (continued)

e) Designated funds

Designated funds are allocated out of unrestricted funds by the trustees for specific purposes. The use of such funds is at the trustees’ discretion. There were no designated funds during the year.

g) Irrecoverable VAT

The church is unable to recover VAT since it does not make taxable supplies. The cost of irrecoverable VAT is not separately analysed in the financial statements.

h) Cash Flow

The church has taken advantage of the exemptions in Financial Reporting Standard No 1 from the requirement to produce a cash flow statement on the grounds that it is a small church.
