## **YEAR ENDED 31 MAY 2024** 

## **PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS** 

During the period Practical Christian Outreach continued to respond to opportunities to reach out to help those whom we believed God had directed us to. 

The majority of activity was directed to projects in Ukraine. These were identified and implemented by our two key personnel in country who we have met, both there in Ukraine and over here in Northern Ireland. These relationships are essential to ensure the legitimacy of the needs and the efficacy of the actions we take. We delivered almost 40 projects over this past year and we were delighted with the opportunity to do so. 

Separately we supported 3 additional projects, 2 in Northern Ireland and one in Kenya. 

The income and expenditure for the year were almost equal, leaving the net assets in a good position at the end of the year. 

## **RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE DIRECTORS** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of Practical Christian Outreach (formerly Youth Outreach) for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Directors’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including FRS 102 ‘‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’’ 

The law applicable to charities in Northern Ireland requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 2015 (FRS 102); 

- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

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

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006, Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008 and The Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2015. 

The directors are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate financial information included on the charitable company’s website.  Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MAY 2024** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **General information and basis of accounting** 

Youth Outreach is a charitable company limited by guarantee and does not have any share capital. It registered as a charity with The Charity Commission for Northern Ireland on 16[th] February 2015 and it is incorporated in Northern Ireland.  The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 1 of these financial statements. 

The charitable company constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. 

## **Statement of compliance** 

The financial statements have been prepared in compliance with 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 United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008, The Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2015 and the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015. 

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value.  The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £1. 

The significant accounting policies are set out below.  The directors consider that these accounting policies are suitable, have been consistently applied and are supported by reasonable and prudent judgement and estimates. 

## **Fund accounting – unrestricted funds** 

The company’s unrestricted funds consist of a General Fund which is expendable at the discretion of the directors in furtherance of the charitable objects of the company.  The directors may at their discretion designate funds for specific purposes but the designation does not legally restrict the directors’ discretion to apply the funds. 

## **Income recognition** 

All income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the charity is legally entitled to the income after any performance conditions have been met, the amount can be measured reliably and it is probable that the income will be received. 

For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of performance before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred until those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled. 

Donated facilities and donated professional services are recognised in income at their fair value when their economic benefit is probable, it can be measured reliably and the charity has control over the item. Fair value is determined on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity.  For example the amount the charity would be willing to pay in the open market for such facilities and services.  A corresponding amount is recognised in expenditure. 



**Page 12** 

## **PRACTICAL CHRISTIAN OUTREACH COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**(continued)**_ 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MAY 2024** 

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

## **Income recognition** _**(continued)**_ 

No amount is included in the financial statements for volunteer time in line with the SORP (FRS 102). Further detail is given in the Directors’ Annual Report. 

Where practicable, gifts in kind donated for distribution to the beneficiaries of the charity are included in stock and donations in the financial statements upon receipt. If it is impracticable to assess the fair value at receipt or if the costs to undertake such a valuation outweigh any benefits, then the fair value is recognised as a component of donations when it is distributed and an equivalent amount recognised as charitable expenditure. 

Voluntary income received by way of donations and gift is credited to revenue on a receivable basis. 

Fixed asset gifts in kind are recognised when receivable and are included at fair value. They are not deferred over the life of the asset. 

For legacies, entitlement is the earlier of the charity being notified of an impending distribution or the legacy being received. At this point income is recognised. On occasion legacies will be notified to the charity however it is not possible to measure the amount expected to be distributed. On these occasions, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed. 

Investment income is interest earned through holding cash at bank. Interest income is recognised when receivable. 

## **Expenditure recognition** 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payments to third parties, it is probable that the settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 

Where costs cannot be directly attributed to a particular heading they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of the resources. Staff costs and overhead expenses are allocated to activities on the basis of staff time spent on those activities. 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as an expense against the activity for which expenditure arose. 

Fund-raising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of disseminating information in support of the charitable activities. 

## **Value Added Tax** 

The charity is not registered for VAT purposes, therefore expenditure is shown gross of VAT. 

## **Fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost, or valuation less accumulated depreciation.

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MAY 2024** 

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

## **Taxation** 

As a charity, the company benefits from various exemptions afforded by tax legislation.  It is therefore not liable to corporation tax on income or gains falling due within those exemptions. Recovery is made of tax deducted from receipts under gift aid. 

## **Going concern** 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Directors consider the basis to be appropriate assuming that the charity has adequate financial support from the bankers and related parties.
