Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.

They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Tilstock Youth Club - the first of its kind in over 20 years. I,[stocK r:." -Xt Tilstock School, as part of our provision, we understand the,- -importance of developing the whole child. We work hard as a team to provide nurture and enjoyment to all our children, 65ly"P¢: alongside meaningful experiences that children can not only develop social skills and confidence, and to ensure children have strong sense of belonging in their community. In April 2024, the 4 All Foundation inaugurated a youth club in Tilstock, the first of its kind in over 20 years. Hosted at Tilstock Village Hall, this initiative is a rewarding experience for young participants. In collaboration with Tilstock C of E Primary School, the programme supports to foster community engagement and personal development. . We noticed a rise in anti-social incidents within the village, particularly aftet Covid restrictions were lifted. On reflection, it is obvious that once schoolfinishes each day, there is sadly nothing for children in the village to do. Many of our local children do not have any transport into Whitchurch, so are left to their own devices and are often bored. A Conversation with BBC Gardener David Domoney urthermore, from a safEguarding point of view, there have been incidents whereby children left to their own devices, are often vulnerable, lacking guidance and focus. They need somewhere safe to go, with positive role-models to support and guide positive social interactio In April 2024, The 4 All Foundation were excited to unveil an enlightening community event featuring acclaimed gardener, David Domoney a familiar figure from the BBC'S gardening programmes. Over 70 community members attended the event, where David shared valuable insights and tips and the audience thoroughly enjoyed an enthralling discussion on his illustrious career and invaluable gardening wisdom. Providing a regular weekly Youth Club via the 4 All Foundation with activities for the children to enjoy in a safe local environment, helps build their confidence and also realise that they are part of a community that cares iabout them and invests in them.
