TRUSTEES REPORT FEBRUARY 2026
These accounts to be approved by the trustees on at the Annual General Meeting to be held on 5 March 2026
Kevin Hesketh - Chairman & Treasurer
NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
-
These accounts are prepared on a receipts and payments basis, with all revenue and expenses shown on a cash basis. Non-monetary assets are shown at estimates of their value at the end of the year.
-
The Charity had no outstanding debt secured against its assets.
-
Since the charity's annual income is in excess of the £25,000 Charity Commission threshold, it has been necessary to have the accounts audited by an independent examiner. This has been done and a separate auditor's report will be filed with the Charity Commission, along with this Auditor's Report and the full accounts for 2025.
