STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS RESPONSIBILITIES
The directors are responsible for preparing the annual report and the
accounts in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for
each financial year.
Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the accounts in
accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice
(United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). The accounts
are required by law to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs
of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for the period.
In preparing these accounts, the directors are required to
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
comply with applicable accounting standards subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records
which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial
position of the company and to enable them to ensure that the financial
statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible
for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking
reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other
irregularities
The above report has been prepared in accordance with the small
companies regime of the Companies Act 2006.
By order of the Board

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for theyear ended30th SEPTEMBER 2024
Trade debtors
Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or
services performed in the ordinary course of business.
Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They
are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of
trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the
Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the
original terms of the receivables.
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
present as non-current liabilities.
Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF SACRED SPACE FOUNDATION
We report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 30th September
2024 which are set out on pages 3 to 9.
RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER
The trustees and the director are responsible for the preparation of the
accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this
year section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act).
Having satisfied ourselves that the charity is not subject to audit
under company law and is eligible for independent
examination, it is my responsibility to:
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the
Charity Commission under section 145 (5) (b) of the 2011 Act; and
state whether particular matters have come to our attention.
BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
Our examination was carried out in accordance with the General
Directions given by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales. 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 we do not
express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT
In connection with our examination, no material matters have come to our
attention which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in any
material respect:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006 and section 130 of the Charities Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of Section 393 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principals of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities under Regulations 2008.
We have come across no other matters in connection with the examination
to attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper
understanding of the accounts to be reached.
