## **COUNCIL'S REPORT** 

## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020**_ 

The Council present their annual report, together with the financial statements of The British Crystallographic Association (the Charity) for the year ended 31 December 2020.  The Council confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the Charity comply with current statutory requirements, the requirements of the Charity's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP 2015) "Accounting and Reporting by Charities". 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Policies and objectives** 

The Council confirm that they have complied with their duty in section 17(5) of the 2011 Charities Act to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Charity Commission in exercising their powers or duties and in setting the policies and objectives of the Charity. The Objectives of the Charity are to advance the education of the public in the science of crystallography and to promote its teaching and applications, in academia and industry, particularly within the British Isles.  There have been no changes in the objectives since the last annual report. 

## **Main activities undertaken to further the Charity's purposes for the public benefit** 

The Charity provides information and learning material tailored to different interested parties through the pages of its website.  The pages are aimed as resources to aid both students and teachers.  In addition, the Charity has organised and participated in public engagement activities to promote crystallographic sciences. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Summary of main achievements** 

The activities of the charity suffered inevitable disruption in 2020 due to the CoVid pandemic. The 4-day spring meeting was cancelled altogether, however we were able to hold three 1-day autumn meetings for the dissemination and discussion of scientific research and breakthroughs that relate to the field of crystallography and its impact across a wide range of disciplines including chemistry, physics, biology, medicine, earth sciences and mathematical and computer sciences.  The pandemic severely reduced the opportunities for our members to participate in events and engage the public to spread scientific knowledge. However, the Charity has sought to engage in alternative digital and virtual initiatives to spread scientific knowledge. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Review of the financial position of the Charity** 

During the year the Charity had a deficit on a restricted funds of £586 and a deficit on unrestricted funds of £19,476. The deficit is in large part accounted for by the cancellation of the spring meeting, which resulted in £14,472 of unavoidable losses. At the balance sheet date restricted funds totalled £126,800 and unrestricted funds £129,816.  The major financial challanges of the pandemic have been addressed in the 2020 accounting year, with the losses from the cancelled spring meeting, and these funds are sufficient to meet currently anticipated requirements for future activity of the Charity. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The Council members have conducted their own review of the reserves that the Charity requires for sustaining its objectives.  The major considerations are with regard to the long term funding of meetings and bursaries and funding projected deficits from reduced investment income and rising administration expenses.  Existing fund balances are considered adequate to meet these needs.  In addition the Council periodically review this area in conjunction with financial planning information. 

The Charity does not have any material commitments or guarantees which could affect its future solvency.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT** 

## **TO THE COUNCIL OF BRITISH CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC ASSOCIATION** 

I report to the Council on my examination of the financial statements of British Crystallographic Association (the charity) for the year ended 31 December 2020. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the Council of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act). 

I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act . In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

- 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the  Act as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or 

- 2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the  accounts to be reached.

## **BRITISH CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC ASSOCIATION** 

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Charity information** 

The British Crystallographic Association is an unincorporated registered charity in England and Wales number 284718 and in Scotland number SC042263. 

## **1.1 Accounting convention** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with charity's Trust deed dated 6 April 1982, 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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102. 

The financial statements have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a true and fair view. This departure has involved following the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn. 

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

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. 

## **1.2 Going concern** 

At the time of approving the financial statements, the Council have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. This has included consideration of the Covid-19 pandemic and it's effects on the charity as outlined in the Council's Report. Thus the Council continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. 

## **1.3 Charitable funds** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Council in furtherance of their charitable objectives. 

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by charity. 

## **1.4 Incoming resources** 

Income is recognised when charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received. 

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation. 

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **(Continued)** 

## **1.5 Resources expended** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.  Expenditure is classified by activity.  The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity.  Direct costs attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

Fundraising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of disseminating information in support of the charitable activities.  Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the Charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements. 

Costs of generating funds are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds. 

Charitable activities and Governance costs are costs incurred on the Charity's educational operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the Charity apportioned to charitable activities. 

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT. 

## **1.6 Fixed asset investments** 

Fixed asset investments  are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date.  Changes in fair value are recognised in  net income/(expenditure) for the year . Transaction costs are expensed as incurred. 

## **1.7 Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. 

## **1.8 Financial instruments** 

The Charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. 

Financial instruments are recognised in the Charity's balance sheet when the Charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

## _**Basic financial assets**_ 

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **(Continued)** 

## _**Basic financial liabilities**_ 

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future p aymen ts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. 

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of  operations  from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## _**Derecognition of financial liabilities**_ 

Financial liabilities are derecognised when charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled. 

## **2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements** 

In the application of charity’s accounting policies, the Council are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
