## NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2024 

## 1 Accounting policies 

## a) Basis of preparation 

- The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the charity's trust deed, the Charities Act 2011 and "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)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102. 

The accounts are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £1. 

The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. 

## b) Funds structure 

All funds are unrestricted and can be applied at the discretion of the trustees generally in the furtherance of the objects of the charity. 

## c) Income recognition 

Savings interest receivable on cash deposits is recognised in these accounts on a receipts basis. 

Other income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, there is sufficient certainty of receipt and so it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. 

## d) Expenditure recognition 

Liabilities are recognised as resources expended as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to the expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. 

Grants payable are payments made to third parties in the furtherance of the charitable objectives of the trust. The grants are accounted for where either the trustees have agreed to pay the grant without condition and the recipient has a reasonable expectation that they will receive a grant, or any condition attaching to the grant is outside the control of the trust. 

## e) Irrecoverable VAT 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of resources expended for which it was incurred. 

## f) Charitable activities 

The expenditure on charitable activities includes grants made and governance costs. 

Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These include costs related to statutory audit/independent examination.
