Shopmobility Llsburn Notes to Ihe Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023 Golng concern The financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the charity witi continue to operate as a going concern. Despite this year's deficit, the charity's reserves hove remained in a positive value. There is a material uncertainty related to these events that may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue a5 a going concern and. therefore. may be unable to realise its assets and discharge it5 liabilities in the normal course of it5 operafions. The charity is reliant upon the continued support of its funders. The trustees are confident that this support will continue for the foreseeable future.

Legacy gifts are recogni5ed on a case-by-case basis following the grant of probote when the administrator/executor for the estate has communicoted in writing both the amount ond settlement date. In the event that the gift is in the form of an asset, other than cash or a financial asset traded on a recognised stock exchange, recognition is subject to the value of the gift being reliably measurable, with a degree of reasonable accuracy and the th'tle to the asset having been tronsfeTred to the charity. Grants receivable The grants provided by the Department for Infrastruclure. through the Transport Programme for_People_ with Disabilities ITPPDI. have been used solely for the purposes intended and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the grant.
