will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following speciflc policies
are applied lo particular categories of income..
income from donats.ons or grants is re¢L￿nised when there is evidence of enlillement to the
gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.
legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established.
income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless this is
impractical lo measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor
or the eslimaled resale value. Donated facilities and services are recognised in the
accounts when receNed If the value can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for
the contribution of general volunteers.
income from contracts for the supply of services is recognised wrth the delivery of the
contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual
requirement for il lo be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent, in which case

VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of
financial activities lo which il relates..
expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events. non-
charitable Ir8ding activities, and the sale of donated goods.

allributable lo a single activity are allocatèd directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned

Tangible assets (eontinuedj
An increase in the carying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other
recognised gains and losses, unless il reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been
recognised as expenditure within the slalement of financial activities A decrease in the carrying
amount of an asset as a result of revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses.
except to which il offsets any previous revaluation gain, in which case the loss is shown within
other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activities.
Depreclation
Depreeialion is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual
value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows..
Equipment
250A straight line
Impaimient of flxed asset$
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting dale. with the recoverable
amount being eslimaled where such indicators exist. lthere the carrying value exceeds the
recoverable amount, the asset is impa[￿d accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for
possible reversal at each reporting dale.
For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable
amount of an Individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-
generating unil lo which the asset belongs. The cash-generaling unit is the smallest identifiable
group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of
the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.
For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the
acquisition date, allocated lo each of the cash-generaling units that are expected lo benefit from
the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity
are assigned to those units.
Financial instruments
A financial asset or a ffnancial liability is recognised only when the charity becomes a paty to the
contractual provisions of the inslrumenl.
Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including
any related transaction costs.
Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured al the cash or other
consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted.
Debt instruments are subsequently measured al amortised cost.
Where Investments in shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured
reliably, the investment is subsequently measured al fair value with changes in fair value
recognised in income and expenditure. All other such investments are subsequently measured al
cost less impairment.

Financial instruments (continued)
Other financial inslrumenls, including derivatives, are initially recognised al fair value, unless
payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed al a rale of interest
that is not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured al the present value of the future
payments discounted al a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.
Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes
recognised in the stslemenl of financial activities, with the exception of hedging instruments in a
design81ed hedging relationship.
Financial assets that are measured al cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence
of impairment al the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an
impairment loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the statement of financial
activities in which the initial gain was recognised.
For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are
individually signrficant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial asset5 are
either assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar cr@dil risk Characterist￿$.
Any reversals of impairment are recognised immediately, to the exlenl that the reversal does not
result in a carrying amount ol the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would
have been had the impairment not previously been recognised.
Defined contributlon plans
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which
the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset lo the extent
that the prepayment will lead lo a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.
When ¢ontributions are not expected lo be settled wholly within 12 months of the end of the
reporting dale in which the employees render the related service, the liability is measured on
discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as an expense in
the period in which il arises.
