THE BRIDGET ESPINOSA MEMORIAL TRUST
TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020
The Trustees present their annual report together with the audited financial statements of the Charity for the Year 1 September 2019 to 31 August 2020.
Objectives and activities
a. Policies and objectives
The principal objectives of the Trust are to run the London Studio Centre and to raise funds which are to be used to fund scholarships to students attending the conservatoire for training in dance, drama and other theatrical activities carried on by the Group. In addition the Trust provides financial assistance in respect of courses at the London Studio Centre for the advancement and education of students at the centre. The Trustees ensure that the educational courses are available to deserving students to enhance their education and to provide benefit to the wider theatre and ballet based communities.
In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance ‘Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.
The Group relies on fees from students to cover its operating costs. In setting fees, careful consideration is given to scholarships and bursaries for talented students unable to pay their fees.
b. Strategies for achieving objectives
The Trust seeks to continue to meet its charitable objectives by the careful stewardship of its investment in the trading subsidiary.
c. Activities undertaken to achieve objectives
London Studio Centre's primary course is the ‘BA Hons Theatre Dance’ degree validated by Middlesex University. Alongside this London Studio Centre runs the purely vocational three year ‘London Studio Centre Diploma’, a specialised 'One Year Professional Diploma’ post graduate course, a ‘One Year Specialist Programme’ and a one year ‘Foundation Course’. September 2019 saw the commencement of the ‘MA Dance Producing & Management’ course, also validated by Middlesex University. London Studio Centre's response to the Covid-19 Pandemic was swift, thorough and gained approval from Middlesex University, moving all provision online for the remainder of the academic year, allowing the continuation of both the BA (Hons) Theatre Dance and MA Dance Producing and Management to the end of their academic years and enabling final year students to complete their courses and graduate. London Studio Centre's handling of the situation was praised by Middlesex University and External Examiners.
London Studio Centre has used the experience gained from online provision together with staff and student feedback to contribute to the blended learning and contingency planning for 2020/21.
d. Social investment policies
The Trust is committed to providing access to individuals from all backgrounds, regardless of their financial or socio-economic circumstances. London Studio Centre actively creates opportunities and aims to reduce barriers to training for under-represented or disadvantaged groups as outlined in its Access and Participation Policy.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020
Objectives and activities (continued)
e. Grant-making policies
The Trust is committed to supporting talented students regardless of their background. Our policy is to never turn away someone who has the potential to succeed as a performer.UK and EU students are eligible for support from Student Finance, specifically tuition fee loans. Additionally, maintenance loans, maintenance grants and bursaries are available to UK students. Overseas students are not eligible for UK Government support, though many receive finance through their own country, for example Norwegian students are usually in receipt of Lanekassen funding. The tuition fee loan from the Student Loans Company is paid directly to the conservatoire towards the tuition fees, whilst all maintenance loans/grants/bursaries are paid directly to the student.
London Studio Centre is supported by The Leverhulme Trust, which has awarded a sum over a 3 year period from 2019/20 to 2021/22 for allocation to students and The Wall Trust which awards scholarship support, via audition, to the neediest and most talented musical theatre students to enable them to continue training. A number of London Studio Centre students are also supported by a range of charities which fund students directly.
London Studio Centre supports students in financial need by providing a Tuition Fee Scholarship scheme for those students receiving the higher level of maintenance awards, determined by household income. The scholarship is a maximum of £3,000 per student (dependent upon the level of maintenance support assessed) which is awarded against their tuition fees. LSC is also proud that income generated through performances and other ventures, finances a Widening Participation Fund which awards tuition fee bursaries to students from under-represented areas who require additional financial support.
No (2019 - nil) direct grants were awarded during the year.
f. Main activities undertaken to further the Charity's purposes for the public benefit
The Trustees continue to oversee the activities and expansion of London Studio Centre to ensure the Trust is able to provide support to aspiring future performers.
London Studio Centre is committed to providing outreach to educational establishments and dance and theatre communities in order to attract and identify talented young people from a non-traditional sector. LSC also runs an emerging talent scheme which identifies and supports aspiring dancers and musical theatre artists in order to break down unnecessary barriers to professional training opportunities.

Achievements and performance
a. Main achievements of the Charity
The financial statements consolidate the affairs of the Charity's trading subsidiary, London Studio Centre Limited, which provides dance educational courses to students. The Charity controls London Studio Centre Limited by virtue of its power to appoint the Board of Directors of London Studio Centre Limited. The results for the year ended 31 August 2020 are disclosed in Note 11 of these financial statements.
The benefits of the Trust's work are the delivery of a degree education to students and nurturing the talent of future performers. The Trustees are pleased that the achievements set out below demonstrate the ongoing success of the London Studio Centre in spite of the pandemic.
The Trustees were very pleased to note the following comments on London Studio Centre’s good practice from the External Examiners
- The response from LSC and the university to the pandemic and to ensuring that the students received the very best experience possible. . The level of pastoral care and individual guidance for students is outstanding and this year has demonstrated superb team work at the College in ensuring that students are not disadvantaged. . Presentation of all forms of work for assessment was of a very high standard and much appreciated. All documentation was thorough and carefully presented
In 2019/20, LSC made 129 (2019 - 128) Tuition Fee Scholarship and Widening Participation Fund awards, totalling £334,607 (2019 - £315,667).
b. Key performance indicators
The success of London Studio Centre’s graduates in the performance industry remains high, as evidenced by the review of activities below.
The results of the annual National Student Survey remain consistently above benchmark, despite the unpredictable end to the academic year.
London Studio Centre’s (BA Hons) Theatre Dance progression rates fell slightly in first year students (85%) passing and proceeding to the next year and was likely impacted by COVID. Progression and completion rates for second and third year continued to be excellent (94.3% and 97.6% respectively).
Student achievement remained excellent with no students failing the programme at any level of study.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020
Achievements and performance (continued)
c. Review of activities
One of the major differences between the London Studio Centre conservatoire and other professional training programmes is that London Studio Centre provides extensive professional training experiences within the final year of the course. The students’ training culminates in tours specialising in Musical Theatre, Contemporary Dance, Jazz Theatre Dance and Classical Ballet, each ending with a show in London. The first and second year students have a range of performance platforms showcasing all genres, most notably the Spring Showcase in March at artsdepot and the end of year show which usually takes place at the New Wimbledon Theatre. Unfortunately the first COVID lockdown prevented all shows from taking place in theatre venues from March 2020, however through collaboration between students & staff a ‘Digital Dance Overture’ was created by editing together individually filmed student sections of work choreographed as larger performance pieces.
In 2020 100% of London Studio Centre's students successfully graduated - 94.39% with either a First Class or Upper Second class division (or Distinction/Merit-Plus)
Our 2020 graduates have joined/performed with the following distinguished companies despite the devastating effect of the pandemic on the performance industry: SETanztheater, Mannheim National Theatre, Celebrity Cruises, JV2, Royal Caribbean Cruises, Stage Entertainment International, Rubicon Dance Company, 2Dance Company and Warner Leisure Hotels. Graduates were also seen in a range of Hollywood Blockbusters, films and TV shows including Captain Marvel, Battle Sibulation, Trapped 2 The Times, Matilda for Netflix and productions by Bafta in conjunction with EE as well as performing as a backing dancer for artist Tallia Storm. They join the ranks of London Studio Centre’s alumni regularly seen performing on stage and screen.
Alongside the professional success London Studio Centre has sustained, a number of graduates have moved onto post-graduate work in 2020 that included PGCE's, and various MA's. Graduates are teaching across the UK and continue to create and choreograph their own work. LSC also provided graduates with the opportunity to complete a Level 4 teaching qualification with bbodance, in this fourth year 7 graduates took up the opportunity
d. Factors relevant to achieve objectives
London Studio Centre continues to receive large numbers of applicants for its courses, ensuring maintenance of the income streams which fund the awards made by the Trust.
e. Fundraising activities and income generation
The Trust does not currently actively fundraise but does, from time to time, receive donations from interested benefactors.
f. Investment policy and performance
Under the Trust deed, the Charity has the power to make any investment which the Trustees see fit.
Financial review
a. Going concern
|
After making appropriate enquiries, 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 the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.
Page 6
THE BRIDGET ESPINOSA MEMORIAL TRUST
TRUSTEES’ REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020
b. Reserves policy
The Trustees have established a policy whereby both unrestricted and restricted funds are maintained at a relatively low level. Such a policy ensures that funds received are distributed on a timely basis for the uses specified in the Charity's purposes.
At the year end the group had general fund reserves available of £1,357,386 (2019 - £1,319,869) and restricted fund, the Doris Barry award of £723 (2019 - £723).
c. Material investments policy
The only investment the Trust currently is its investment in the trading subsidiary, London Studio Centre Limited.
d. Principal risks and uncertainties
The Trustees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks and confirm that systems have been established so that necessary steps can be taken to lessen these risks.
-
The Trustees consider the following course of action to be appropriate:
-
° an annual review of the risks which the Charity may face;
. the establishment of systems and procedures to mitigate those risks identified in the plan; and . the implementation of procedures to minimise any potential impact on the Charity should any of those risks materialise.
e. Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Trust has confidence in London Studio Centre’s system of internal financial control which is based on a framework of regular management information and administrative procedures. In particular, it includes: ° The Company's financial procedures; ° Comprehensive budgeting and monitoring systems with an annual budget and periodic financial reports which are reviewed and agreed by the Senior Management Group (the governing body within LSC which reports to the trustees);
-
° Delegation of authority and segregation of duties;
-
° Director review of proposed and actual procurement; ° Identification and management of other risks through the use of risk registers; and
-
° Setting targets to measure financial and other performance.
f. Principal funding
The Trust does not actively fundraise but does from time to time receive donations from interested benefactors.

SS
TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020
g. Pricing policy
Following the Browne Report in October 2010 Higher Education Council of England funding was phased out therefore new students entering a course at London Studio Centre are required to fund the full tuition fee for the course (supplemented by the tuition fee loan from the UK Government).
The Tuition fees are set having regard to the cost of professional provision at conservatoire level which provides a high staff to student ratio, higher than normal contact hours between staff & students, large studio, theatre and lecture spaces and specialist equipment, in order to ensure the course is fit for purpose; to supply educated artists for modern theatre.
HEFCE has commissioned specialist reviews to establish costs of specialist vocational courses. Funding levels have been agreed by HEFCE to cover the overheads of delivering high quality conservatoire level education and training.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE BRIDGET ESPINOSA MEMORIAL TRUST
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of The Bridget Espinosa Memorial Trust (the ‘parent charity’) and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the Year ended 31 August 2020 which comprise the Consolidated statement of financial activities, the Consolidated balance sheet, the Charity balance sheet, the Consolidated statement of cash flows and the related notes, 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 lreland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn.
This has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
° give a true and fair view of the state of the Group's and of the parent charity's affairs as at 31 August 2020 and of the Group's incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure for the Year then ended;
-
° have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
e 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 Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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.
Conclusions relating to going concern
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where:
-
° the Trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate; or
-
° the Trustees have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Group's or the parent charity's ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Other information
The Trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual report, other than the financial statements and our Auditors' report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and 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 where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
e the information given in the Trustees’ report is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or
-
° the parent Charity has not kept sufficient accounting records; or ® the parent Charity financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; 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, the Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the 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 the 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.
Page 12
THE BRIDGET ESPINOSA MEMORIAL TRUST
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE BRIDGET ESPINOSA MEMORIAL TRUST (CONTINUED)
Auditors’ 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 the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
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 Auditors' 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.
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 Auditors' report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an Auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and its trustees, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

1. General information
The Bridget Espinosa Memorial Trust is a charity registered in England and Wales. The charity number and principle address can be found on the information page of these financial statements.
2. Accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
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) published in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
The Bridget Espinosa Memorial Trust meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
The Consolidated statement of financial activities (SOFA) and Consolidated balance sheet consolidate the financial statements of the Charity and its subsidiary undertaking. The results of the subsidiary are consolidated ona line by line basis.

2.2 Going concern
At the year end the group has net assets of £1,358,109 (2019: £1,320,592). Based on the Charity's current business model there will be sufficient profits and cash flow available going forward. For this reason the Trustees believe that the financial statements should be prepared on the going concern basis.
The Trustees have considered relevant information, including the annual budget, forecast future cash flows and the impact of subsequent events in making their assessment. The COVID-19 pandemic and the ensuing economic shutdown has not had a significant impact on the group's operations. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Trustees have performed a robust analysis of forecast future cash flows of the subsidiary taking into account the potential impact on the business of possible future scenarios arising from the impact of COVID-19. This analysis also considers the effectiveness of available measures to assist in mitigating the impact.
Based on these assessments and having regard to the resources available to the entity, the Trustees have concluded that there is no material uncertainty and that they can continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and accounts.

- Accounting policies (continued)
2.3 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 measured reliably.
Donations and legacies:
Income from donations is recognised as income when these are receivable. When donors specify that donations are for particular restricted purposes, which do not amount to pre-conditions regarding entitlement, this income is recognised as income to restricted funds when receivable.
Other trading activities: Other trading activities represent turnover from its trading subsidiary London Studio Centre Limited which comprises tuition fees for degree and foundation courses charged to the students by academic terms. Income is recognised for academic terms falling within the year.
Amounts received from performances are recognised on receipt or where there is certainty of future receipt and the value can be measured reliably.
Income from investments and interest:
Income from investments and interest is recognised using the effective interest method.
2.4 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 not 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 allocated on the portion of the asset's use.
Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the Group to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
Expenditure recognition:
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the Charity to the expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category.
Expenditure on charitable activities: Grants awarded are accounted for when payments are due.
Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the Charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020
2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.5 Government grants
Government grants relating to tangible fixed assets are treated as deferred income and released to the Consolidated statement of financial activities over the expected useful lives of the assets concerned. Other grants are credited to the Consolidated statement of financial activities as the related expenditure is incurred.
2.6 Foreign currencies
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at rates of exchange ruling at the reporting date.
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate ruling on the date of the transaction.
Exchange gains and losses are recognised in the Consolidated statement of financial activities.
2.7 Taxation
The Charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities. The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the Group operates and generates income.
2.8 Intangible assets and amortisation
Intangible assets costing £NIL or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Amortisation is provided on intangible assets at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset on a Straight-line basis over its expected useful life.
The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Amortisation is provided on the following bases:
Development expenditure . % not depreciated until brought into use Goodwill : % 10 years

2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.9 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
Long-term leasehold property - over the term of the lease Plant and machinery ~ 15% Motor vehicles - 25% Fixtures and fittings - 15% Office equipment - 15%
The assets’ residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in the Consolidated statement of financial activities.
2.10 Investments
|
Fixed 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 the 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 presented as ‘Gains/(Losses) on investments’ in the Consolidated statement of financial activities.
Investments in subsidiaries are valued at cost less provision for impairment.
2.11 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.
2.12 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.

2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.13 Liabilities
Liabilities and provisions 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 anticipates 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. 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 in the Consolidated statement of financial activities as a finance cost.
2.14 Deferred taxation
Full provision is made for deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from all timing differences between the recognition of gains and losses in the financial statements and recognition in the tax computation.
A net deferred tax asset is recognised only if it can be regarded as more likely than not that there will be suitable taxable surpluses from which the future reversal of the underlying timing differences can be deducted.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates expected to be effective at the time the timing differences are expected to reverse.
2.15 Financial instruments
The Group 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.
2.16 Finance leases and hire purchase
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts and finance leases are capitalised as tangible fixed assets. Assets acquired by finance lease are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Assets acquired by hire purchase are depreciated over their useful lives. Finance leases are those where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership are assumed by the Group. Obligations under such agreements are included in creditors, net of the finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance element of the rental payment is charged to the Consolidated statement of financial activities so as to produce a constant periodic rate of charge on the net obligation outstanding in each period.

2), Accounting policies (continued)
2.17 Operating leases
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Consolidated statement of financial activities on a straight line basis over the lease term.
Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are recognised on a straight line basis over the lease term, unless another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the lessee's benefit from the use of the leased asset.
Temporary rent concessions occurring as a direct consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic have been recognised on a systematic basis over the periods that the change in lease payments is intended to compensate. This is conditional on:
-
e the change in lease payments resulting in revised consideration for the lease that is less than the consideration for the lease immediately preceding the change;
-
any reduction in lease payments affecting only payments originally due on or before 30 June 2022;
-
e there being no significant change to other terms and conditions of the lease.
2.18 Pensions
The Group operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the Group to the fund in respect of the Year.
2.19 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the genera! objectives of the Group 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 Group 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.
Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
