Achievements and performance
Following the COVID pandemic and the updating of government guidance relaxing and then dropping restrictions during the accounting year, the company was able to recommence the planning of its core activities.
Irish conversational classes were held weekly, facilitating cultural awareness and the promotion of language and have seen a marked increase in attendance. The company facilitated a Youth Club (Club Óige) thus promoting social well-being and arts within the community.
The company has supported community summer schemes thus facilitating cultural awareness and the promotion of language for youth in the community.
The company continues to support the Limavady branch of Comhaltas and act as an umbrella organisation granting use of premises and facilitating community classes for the promotion of traditional music and singing. The company has previously supported the local branch of Comhaltas to host the County Derry Fleadh, and will support future local and county events, thus promoting and developing the rich cultural, arts and community spirit in the wider Limavady catchment and council area.
During the accounting year, key users recommenced their businesses and activities for the community. In addition, the company was able to undertake a number of minor events and classes for community benefit.
The company continues to improve on the capital refurbishment of the premises, greatly supported through funding.
The company has supported local businesses, cultural clubs, youth activities and charity events as well as continuing in the promotion and sustainability of these new premises for utilisation by the whole community and acted as a hub for several small business users.
The growth of Glór, as a community driven company, continues with a substantial programme of events organised including the provision of GCSE classes. The company now has a part-time employee.
Risk Management
The Trustees have a risk management strategy which consists of establishing a system of identifying risks and mitigating such risks.
The Trustees are aware of the major risks to which the charity is exposed. Where appropriate, systems of procedures have been established to mitigate the risks the charity faces. Internal control risks are minimised through the procedures for authorisation of all transactions and projects. The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure.

Trustees' Annual Report (Incorporating the Director's Report) (continued)
Year ended 31 October 2023
Financial review
Total incoming resources for the year were £57,677 of which 39% came from other resources, less than 1% from investment income and 60% from funders. Deferred income recognised in year totalled £22,564. Total expenses for the charity were £84,700. Approximately 97% of this was expended on direct charitable activities and 3% on governance costs. Capital expenditure in the year totalled £17,180. The balance on total funds at the year-end was £203,377 of which £83,684 were unrestricted in nature and £119,693 were restricted.
Reserves Policy
In the Trustees' view, the reserves should provide the charity with adequate financial stability and the means for it to meet its charitable objectives for the foreseeable future. Although the company's membership is comprised totally of a volunteer work force, the Trustees propose to maintain a level of reserves to continue to promote and facilitate its current events, objectives and activities and to maintain facility overheads such as insurances. As the company develops and grows, it is proposed to increase the level of reserves proportionally with a growing number of events. The Trustees propose to maintain the charity's reserves and build on this at a level which is at least equivalent to six months operational expenditure and have done so having regards to its manner of operation of likely funding streams and other income. Based on 2022/23 expenditure of £84,700 that amount would be £42,350. Free reserves as at 31st October 2023 are £83,684. The Trustees continue to strive to build a general level of reserves in accordance with their policy so that they will be able to continue the current activities of the charity.
Plans for future periods
For the future, the company will continue to develop and promote its premises as a cultural and community hub, hosting music, dance and arts events as well as building on its current community support reaching out to the local demographic and socio-economic sectors within our catchment area.

3. Accounting policies (continued)
Incoming resources
All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity; it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
-
income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.
-
legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established.
-
income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless this is impractical to measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated resale value. Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts when received if the value can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers.
-
income from contracts for the supply of services is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent, in which case it may be regarded as restricted.
Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:
-
expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, noncharitable trading activities, and the sale of donated goods.
-
expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
-
other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.
All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

3. Accounting policies (continued)
Tangible assets (continued)
An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, unless it reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been recognised as expenditure within the statement of financial activities. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, except to which it offsets any previous revaluation gain, in which case the loss is shown within other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activities.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Land and buildings - 5% Straight line Plant and equipment - 20% Straight line
Impairment of fixed assets
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.
For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cashgenerating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.
For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned to those units.
Financial instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs.
Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted.
Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

3. Accounting policies (continued)
Financial instruments (continued)
Where investments in shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably, the investment is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in income and expenditure. All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less impairment.
Other financial instruments, including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value, unless payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.
Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes recognised in the statement of financial activities, with the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relationship.
Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the statement of financial activities in which the initial gain was recognised.
For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually significant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets are either assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics.
Any reversals of impairment are recognised immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised.
