## **CHIEF COMMISSIONER’S STATEMENT** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

Guiding in Wales is committed to give girls a space to discover and grow, enabling them to find their voice and make a positive difference in the world. We achieve this through delivering an exciting, diverse, girl-led programme of activities though a range of formal and informal learning approaches which support the development and well-being of our membership, all of which is facilitated by trusted adult leaders who are mindful of the importance of the Welsh language and culture. 

With over 13,000 members throughout Wales in over 1,100 units, our aims and objectives have remained constant since our inception (1910), in that we empower girls and young women to be their best and provide skills and opportunities to enable them to face the challenges of growing up in today’s society. 

No-one could have predicted that we would see more than a year in the grips of Covid-19 a global pandemic.  This has meant that guiding face-to-face had to cease in March 2020 and Guiding across Wales embarked on new and intuitive ways of continuing to meet virtually with many of our unit leaders embracing new technology and ideas to keep guiding alive for our young members. This has not been easy and our members have been encouraged to participate when and how they can. The pandemic has had a huge impact on our membership and subscription income for the year 2021-2022. 

Broneirion Training Centre has remained closed with the Trustees making the difficult decision to make all the training centre staff redundant enabling us to hopefully weather the financial challenges we found ourselves in. The operating model of Broneirion was reviewed and we look forward to opening our doors to self-catering guests when restrictions allow. 

2020/21 was the final year of our strategic plan, Being Our Best - Bod ein Gorau, a strategic plan that aimed to build the foundations required to enable even more girls and young women to benefit from what guiding has to offer and our strategy is based around four themes – **Excellence** , **Access** , **Voice** and **Capacity** – with ambitious targets under each of these themes, to match our ambitions for girls and young women in Wales. Our strategy for 2021 and beyond is being developed by the new Chief Commissioner Team and Board of Trustees and will be completed by September 2021. 

To meet our commitment to ensure that our leaders are inspirational role models for our members and ensure in line with our strategy that we are delivering a quality programme, we have trained more than 2,500 volunteers virtually over the year to ensure compliance in safeguarding best practice, first response and risk assessments. We have also been able to train our members on topics such as accounts, honest conversations, dealing with complaints, growing guiding, gift aid and enthusing leaders to restart. 

Tori James, President for Girlguiding Cymru, continues to be an excellent ambassador for girls and young women ensuring that our membership has a role model of the highest calibre, raising the profile of Guiding in Wales and promoting a positive attitude of Girls Can be anything they wish to be _#GirlsCan._ Our President’s Challenge was launched in May 2020, the challenge was about enjoying guiding from home and the activities allowed girls to get their family involved too, promoting positivity amongst our members during this time. It also enabled us to give back and to show our appreciation to our health workers by donating 50p of every badge sold to NHS Wales. 

Our successes are, of course, a testament to the dedication and hard work of our incredible adult members who facilitate Rainbow, Brownie, Guide and Ranger groups every week across the UK. This voluntary powerhouse of passion, skill and ambition for girls is what enables our organisation to deliver such lifechanging and impactful opportunities and experiences for our young members. The commitment of our volunteers, staff, supporters and donors, combined with the energy and enthusiasm of our members ensures that Guiding is confident and well placed to deliver programmes and activities that inspire and change lives across the Principality. 

From a delivery perspective, we have had another busy year across the organisation featuring some memorable and stand out achievements. There was the launch of our brand new youth programme – Adventures at Home, which has evolved to embrace the restrictions of the pandemic and to keep our members engaged and involved.

**GIRLGUIDING CYMRU** 

## **CHIEF COMMISSIONER’S STATEMENT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

To underpin some aspects of our strategic plan we have opted to work in collaboration or partnership which has enabled us to achieve more than acting alone. Trustees believe that partnership working is particularly beneficial because it shares expertise, skills and resources. We have sought to work with organisations that share our long-term goals, whereby working together each has an increased chance of achieving their individual goals, where the reputations of the partners are complementary and where gaps in capability or reach are addressed by the partner. 

Through this network of collaboration and partnership we have been able to access expertise and skills that have enabled us to offer a much richer and wider programme of opportunities. Girls and young women are encountering gender stereotypes in all areas of their lives – from their peers to the media, causing them to change their behaviour because of the pressure they feel to be or act a certain way, affecting their ability to say what they think, or to be themselves. 

We continue to be ambitious for girls and young women and our partnership with Sports Wales continues to enhance our programme in delivering fun, adventure and challenge. Through this collaboration we have encouraged our young people to become more active, to explore new challenges and sports, trained and motivated them to take their interest further, encouraging healthy lifestyles, giving them new opportunities and experiences. 

We have also continued to build and deliver on our partnerships with the Welsh Government, through our NVYO funding working with other external partners such as the Royal Navy, Army, FAW Trust, Cardiff University School of Engineering and Impact Games.  Through our collaborations we have been keen to reinforce the key message that #GirlsCan. 

The impact of the pandemic on our membership and the demand for places, both for volunteers and girls, continues to be a challenge. However, with support from the Welsh Government through our NVYO grant funding, we continue to invest in developing a team to grow Guiding in Wales and we are focused on a number of areas, from shoring up our existing units with sufficient leaders to opening new units, to clearing waiting lists and more importantly we are focusing on the retention of our current volunteers. 

Girlguiding Trustees are committed to providing girls and young women in Wales with an organisation that they find fun and exciting, one that also teaches them real life skills as they grow and develop. I welcome the Welsh Assembly’s focus on the Youth in Wales and on encouraging girls to participate in all aspects of life in Wales. 

Guiding in Wales is uniquely able to make this happen and with our partners, through collaborative working practices, we can ensure that girls are able to develop, and we can continue to make a difference to the communities in which they live, making them more cohesive. 

Lesley Mathews term of office as Chief Commissioner came to an end in October 2020, with myself now taking up her appointment as Chief Commissioner for the next five years. 

We continue to embrace the challenges ahead by developing our new strategic plan to take us to 2025 to give us a map to build on all the inspiring work volunteers, girls, young women and staff colleagues do, day in and day out, at Girlguiding _#_ _**today, tomorrow, together** ._

**GIRLGUIDING CYMRU** 

## **TRUSTEE’S REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **Trading Subsidiary** 

The charity owns 100% of the issued share capital of Broneirion Ltd, its trading subsidiary, whose principal activity is to operate, maintain and manage the commercial (non-primary purpose) activities of the charity, the Training and Conference Centre at Broneirion and lettings. The subsidiary also raises funds for the charity’s primary purposes through a range of charitable events. 

An update of the trading subsidiary’s activities and operating model can be found within the Chief Commissioner’s statement on page 4. 

## **Statement of Purpose** 

We are the leading charity for girls and young women in Wales. Thanks to our amazing volunteers, we deliver life-changing adventures and opportunities to girls aged 5 to 25. We give girls a voice and have done for over 100 years! We’ve listened to all our girls, volunteers and friends and are delivering our current ‘Being Our Best’ strategy. 

We deliver a challenging and fun programme of activities that offer new experiences and ensure our leaders and volunteers receive excellent training and support in order to give inspirational leadership and deliver quality programmes that enable girls to gain new skills, confidence, and discover the best in themselves. 

Every volunteer, staff member, girl and young woman in guiding has a role to play. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT** 

The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Charity’s aims and objectives in planning future activities. 

As a Charity, GGC is committed to providing leadership and quality training for our adult members and exciting and challenging activities for our younger members. This training can be provided at our headquarters, Broneirion or elsewhere in Wales including, in recent years, major events at the Royal Welsh Showground. 

Our relationship with Sport Wales is continuing to bring new sporting activities into our units across Wales and we are achieving our targets under this funding. Our other major grant (NVYO) is also on target and these two grants have enabled us to substantially improve our delivery of activities to our girls, to benefit their communities. 

Membership this year is again down slightly in Wales (as it is throughout the UK). Subscriptions represent 58% of income for the Charity and are critical to enabling us to provide the girls with the programme they want and underpin our other grants and activities. 

Guiding membership provides excellent value and is seen as ‘open to all and inclusive’ organisation in our communities.

## **Risk Assessment** 

A Risk Register is kept which classifies major risk to which the Charity is exposed under the following headings – Governance, Operational, Financial, Environment and External factors and Compliance. 

Government Policy – relating to grants in particular - we were successful in obtaining two years funding under the National Voluntary Youth Organisation grant covering from April 2020 to March 2022.  We are also a partner organisation with Sport Wales and secured another years funding for the development of Sports Educators and providing further sports opportunities and activities for our young members. 

This has been a great success with thousands of girls and their leaders involved in the programmes. Again though continues funding is uncertain, we continue to imbed the philosophy in Guiding and develop our volunteers to ensure we can take it forward at least in part. 

Governance – Our experienced Board is providing the direction for growing Guiding in Wales and their skills significantly increase our capability in current thinking on leadership, business and marketing within a Welsh

context. We are continuing to develop our systems, policies and processes to streamline administration without losing the necessary controls. 

Financial policy and procedures have been reviewed and budget holders reminded of their obligations under them. 

Disaster recovery and planning – changes to Broneirion structure and business model will hopefully enable the financial viability in the future and secure our assets. 

Dependency on certain income sources and the potential for losses in the trading subsidiary – we continue to develop the ‘mixed economy’ approach to develop a range of income streams, thereby lowering risk in any one area. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

As a Group the Charity made a positive contribution to funds in the year of £197,604 (2020: £84,865). 

Income of £514,836 (2020: £942,872) includes legacies received during the year of £5,000 (2020: £nil). Subscriptions for 20/21 were £312,700 (2019/20: £292,336) being approximately 58% of the income of the Charity for the year. 

Cash balances at the year-end were £444,430 (2020: £211,428) and investments in listed equities were £208,031 (2020: £174,653). Net current assets were £619,722, an increase of £246,661 when compared to 31 March 2020. 

Of the total funds of £1,643,865, unrestricted funds were £1,273,972 and restricted funds were £369,893. The Charity is reporting free reserves of £495,169 at 31 March 2021 compared with £247,040 at 31 March 2020. 

## **GOING CONCERN** 

After making appropriate enquires, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing financial statements. The accounts are presented on a consolidated basis reflecting the integrated nature of the Charity and its trading subsidiary. 

## **INVESTMENTS AND RESERVES** 

The Charity’s investments are held in funds specially designed for charities and include the CCLA COIF managed Growth and income Trust for Charities and the M & G managed Charibond and Charifund Trusts. The growth and Charifund Trusts are invested in blue chip UK equities such as BP, Shell, GlaxoSmithKline, HSBC and Vodafone. The income and Charibond Trusts are invested in UK gifts and other fixed income securities. Guiding UK acts as the intermediate for GGC and by pooling resources with the other Regions we save costs. 

Throughout the period the Trustees have adopted a policy on its reserves ensuring that the unrestricted financial reserves (not including fixed assets) were such as to secure between three and six months of our operation/charitable expenditure. The Trustees consider this level of reserves to be appropriate for the charity and to cover its cash flow requirements, while also providing a buffer in case of any loss of income which would give the Charity the chance to take appropriate steps.

## **TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES** 

The Chief Commissioner is the chair of the board of Trustees, in line with the constitution, they are responsible for the governance, stewardship and strategy of the charity and its subsidiary. They review performance at least four times a year and approve the annual report and accounts. Through active risk management they seek to ensure that the organisation remains viable and sustainable.

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). The law applicable to charities in England & Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 2019 (FRS 102); 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.

**GIRLGUIDING CYMRU** 

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF GIRLGUIDING CYMRU FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of Girlguiding Cymru (the ‘parent charity’) and its subsidiaries (the ‘group’) for the year ended 31 March 2021 which comprise Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet, Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 _The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland_ (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

In our opinion the financial statements: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the group’s and parent charity’s affairs as at 31 March 2021, and of the group’s incoming resources and application of resources for the year then ended; 

- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and 

- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011. 

## **Basis for opinion** 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group and parent charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

## **Emphasis of matter** 

In forming our opinion on the financial statements, which is not qualified, we have considered the adequacy of the disclosures made in note 1.2 to the financial statements concerning the impact on the group and parent charity of the global Covid-19 pandemic and subsequent UK government restrictions, and the group’s ability to continue as a going concern as a result. 

The group closed its trading premises in March 2020 as a result of the UK government restrictions, with staff of the trading subsidiary made redundant in July 2020 accordingly. At the time of approving these financial statements the group has streamlined its previous trading activities with its premises opening for selfcatering bookings only. 

This is therefore a significant change in the activities of the trading subsidiary (Broneirion Limited) which has made significant losses in recent years. There is therefore significant concern over the trading subsidiary of the group and its ability to continue as a going concern. Streamlining of the trading activities will have a material impact on the group and its income/activity level. 

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

**GIRLGUIDING CYMRU** 

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF GIRLGUIDING CYMRU FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **Other information** 

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the trustees’ annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. 

We have nothing to report in this regard. 

## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the trustees’ report; or 

- sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or 

- the parent charity’s financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or 

- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. 

## **Responsibilities of trustees** 

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 10, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of financial statements which give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group’s and parent charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the group or the parent charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

## **Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** 

We have been appointed as auditor under section 151 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act. 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below. 

Page | 12 



**GIRLGUIDING CYMRU** 

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF GIRLGUIDING CYMRU FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

- We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the charity and the sector in which they operate. We determined that the following were most significant: the Charities Act 2011. 

- We obtained an understanding of how the charity are complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks by making inquiries to the management of the charity. We corroborated our inquiries through our review of correspondence during our audit work. 

- We assessed the susceptibility of the charity's financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur. Audit procedures performed included: 

   - identifying and assessing the design effectiveness of controls management has in place to prevent and detect fraud; 

   - understanding how those charged with governance considered and addressed the potential for override of controls or other inappropriate influence over the financial reporting process; 

   - challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in its significant accounting estimates; 

   - identifying and testing journal entries, in particular and journal entries posted with unusual account combinations; and assessing the extent of compliance with the relevant laws and regulations. 

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

**GIRLGUIDING CYMRU** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements** 

The financial statements have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and 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 Charities SORP (FRS 102) rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn. 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant notes to these accounts. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (Published in October 2019) and Charities Act 2011. 

Girlguiding Cymru constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. 

The statement of financial activities (SOFA) and Balance sheet consolidate the financial statements of the Charity and its subsidiary undertaking. The results of the subsidiary are consolidated on a line by line basis. 

No separate SOFA has been presented for the Charity alone as permitted by FRS 102. 

## **1.2 Going Concern** 

At 31 March 2021 the UK and Worldwide economy continued to be significantly impacted by the global Covid-19 pandemic. Following UK government restrictions which were announced in March 2020, the Charity closed its trading premises. Due to the ongoing uncertainty regarding the pandemic and ongoing trading restrictions, and in order to limit losses by the trading subsidiary of the group in 2020/21 as far as possible, the Charity took the tough decision to make all employees of the trading subsidiary redundant in July 2020. 

At the current time the Charity does support its trading subsidiary which continues to meet its liabilities as they fall due. The trading subsidiary has streamlined its trading activities, with certain activities ceased and its premises available for self-catering bookings only. 

The Trustees are of the opinion that the Charity is in a sufficiently strong financial position to see through the current tough economic environment and trading restrictions, and bounce back strongly in 2022. There is however, given the ongoing issue of Covid-19, some uncertainty over the long term future of the trading subsidiary and its future activities. The Trustees therefore continue to monitor the situation on a regular basis. 

On the basis of the above, the Trustees have considered the Charity’s ability to meet its liabilities as they fall due and consider it appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis.

**GIRLGUIDING CYMRU** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)** 

## **1.3 Income** 

All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measure reliably. 

For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the Charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the Trust that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the Charity has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the Charity, or the Charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material. 

Gifts in kind donated for distribution are included at valuation and recognised as income when they are distributed to the projects. Gifts donated for resale are included as income when they are sold. Donated facilities are included at the value to the Charity where this can be quantified and a third party is bearing the cost. No amounts are included in the financial statements for services donated by volunteers. 

Donated services or facilities are recognised when the Charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use of the Charity of the item is probable and the economic benefit can be measure reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the general volunteer time of the Friends is not recognised and refer to the Trustees’ report for more information about their contribution. 

On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the Charity which is the amount the Charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt. 

Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation. 

Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable. 

## **1.4 Expenditure** 

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 allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are note attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

**GIRLGUIDING CYMRU** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)** 

## **1.4 Expenditure (continued)** 

Fundraising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of disseminating information in support of the charitable activities, Support costs are those cost incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objectives of the Charity and include project management carried out at Headquarters. 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. 

Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year-end are noted as a commitment, but not accrued as expenditure. 

## **1.5 Basis of Consolidation** 

The financial statements consolidate the accounts of Girlguiding Cymru and all of its subsidiary undertakings (‘subsidiaries’). 

The income and expenditure account for the year dealt with in the accounts of the Charity was a deficit of £51,952 (2020 - £131,033 surplus). The deficit at the year-end is a result of a provision of £309,026 having been included against the debtor balances owed to the charity by its trading subsidiary, Broneirion Limited. This amount is equivalent to the Broneirion Limited net liabilities position, with the Trustees having taken a view that the trading subsidiary is extremely unlikely to ever be in a position to repay the amounts owed in full. 

## **1.6 Intangible fixed assets and amortisation** 

Intangible assets costing £200 or more are capitalised and recognised when the future economic benefits are probable and the costs or value of the asset can be measured reliably. Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost are subsequently measured at cost net of amortisation and any provision for impairment. 

Amortisation is provided on intangible fixed assets at rated calculated to write off the cost of each asset, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases: 

Website                                -     2 years 

## **1.7 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation** 

A review for impairment of a fixed asset is carried out if events of changed in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of any fixed asset may not be recoverable. Shortfalls between the carrying value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts are recognised as impairments. Impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of financial activities.

**GIRLGUIDING CYMRU** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)** 

## **1.7 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation (continued)** 

Tangible fixed assets are carried at cost, net of depreciation and any provision for impairment. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write of the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases: 

Freehold property                 –    2% Straight line L/term Leasehold property   –    Over the lease term Plant & machinery                –    25% Straight line Fixtures and fittings              –    20% Straight line Office equipment                  –    25% Straight line Other fixed assets                –    25% Straight line 

## **1.8 Investments** 

Fixed asset and current asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the Balance sheet date, unless fair value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and shown in the heading ‘Gains/(losses) on investments’ in the Statement of financial activities. 

Subsidiary undertakings 

Investments in subsidiaries are valued at cost less provision for impairment. 

## **1.9 Interest receivable** 

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid of payable by the Bank. 

## **1.10 Stocks** 

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow – moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. 

## **1.11 Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered.  Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **1.12 Cash at Bank and in hand** 

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. 

## **1.13 Liabilities and provisions** 

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipated it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation.

**GIRLGUIDING CYMRU** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)** 

## **1.13 Liabilities and provisions (continued)** 

Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised within interest payable and similar charges. 

## **1.14 Financial Instruments** 

The Charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## **1.15 Pensions** 

The Charity operates a defined contribution pension’s scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable buy the Charity to the fund in respect of the year. 

The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the charity in an independently administered fund. Contributions payable for the year are charged in the Statement of Financial Activities. 

## **1.16 Fund accounting** 

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. 

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **1.17 Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement** 

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. 

The Charity makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. 

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. 

## **1.18 Government grants** 

Government grants are recognised at the fair value of the asset received or receivable when there is reasonable assurance that the grant conditions will be met and the grants will be received.

**GIRLGUIDING CYMRU** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **2. CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING POLICY** 

In the current year, the following new depreciation policies have been adopted by the group and have an effect on the current period and will have an effect on future periods: 

Plant & machinery                –    from 25% reducing balance to 25% Straight line Fixtures and fittings              –    from 25% reducing balance to 20% Straight line Office equipment                  –    from 20% reducing balance to 25% Straight line Other fixed assets                –    from 20% reducing balance to 25% Straight line 

The accounting policy was changed in the year by the trustees as it was considered that the new depreciation rates were a more accurate basis of reflecting the true and useful life of the group’s tangible fixed assets and ensuring no nominal value remained for older assets that had no remaining value to the group.

As at the year end the charity was owed £426,684 by its trading subsidiary, Broneirion Limited. A provision of £309,026 has been included against this amount, equivalent of the Broneirion Limited net liabilities position at the year-end, with the Trustees having taken the view that the amount owed is unlikely to be recovered in full. This has left an amount showing as owing and recoverable at the year-end of £117,658 (2020: £386,013).

Included within Accruals and deferred income is deferred income of £20,581 (2020: £26,659). Deferred income related to deposits held by Girlguiding Cymru at the year end from Guides for international trips that were due to occur in the next financial year. The total amount in 2020 was either refunded or continued to be held as at the year-end due to the continued postponement of international trips due to Covid-19 restrictions.
