**THE HARMONY COMMUNITY TRUST NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS Year Ended 31 March 2025** 

## **___________________________________________________________________________** 

## **1.1      GOING CONCERN** 

The Trust has recorded Net Outgoing Resources of £17,332 after depreciation of £11,380 during the year ended 31 March 2025, (which is reduced and offset by the receipt of £15,841 from the sale of land), and has Net Current Assets of £292 with net assets of £496,353 as at 31 March 2025. 

Following the NI Executive budget cuts in 2023, to ensure the sustainability of the organisation we entered a period where programmes have been restricted to those run by volunteers and outgoings are reduced to a minimum while some of our assets are realised. Further sales of unused assets are being investigated with the intention when these are complete to retain a site of approximately 7 acres together with a residential centre, offices, meeting rooms and a conference facility with cash reserves to support a robust cash position. 

In the interim programmes have been provided supported by volunteers and only to the extent that funding is available.  We have been heartened by the positive response from funders and are pleased to report that grant funding has been re-established which will enable us to appoint staff and to recommence a youth programme.  Applications will continue to be made to enable operations to be resumed more fully over the period and to rebuild our activities only within the available resource. 

While there is a material uncertainty over going concern, the directors are currently considering the disposal of further assets which are surplus to requirements which will generate resources to create an adequate level of reserves and are of the firm view that it is appropriate to prepare the accounts on the going concern basis which assumes that the company will continue in operational existence for at least 12 months from the signing of the financial statements. 

## **1.2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

The principal accounting policies adopted are described below. 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The financial statements of this public benefit entity have been prepared in accordance 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 UK and the Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1[st] January 2019) (Charities SORP (FRS 102),  the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.  Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or terms of an appeal. 

## **Incoming resources** 

All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy.  The following specific policies are applied in particular categories of income: 

Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and gifts and is included in full in the statement of financial activities when receivable.  Grants, where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant. 

Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified.  The value of service by volunteers has not been included in these accounts.

**THE HARMONY COMMUNITY TRUST NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (CONTINUED) Year Ended 31 March 2025** 

**___________________________________________________________________________** 

## **1.2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)** 

## **Resources expended** 

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred.  Expenditure includes VAT reported as part of expenditure to which it relates. Cost of generating funds comprises the costs associated with attracting voluntary income.  Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries.  It includes both costs that can be associated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. 

Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the audit fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity. 

All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the SoFA on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource.  Costs relating to a particular activity are allocated directly, others are apportioned on an appropriate basis e.g. floor areas, per capita or estimated usage as set out in note 4. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

- a) Tangible fixed assets are started at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any provision for impairment. 

- b) Depreciation is provided on all fixed assets, calculated to write off cost or valuation, less estimated residual value, within their useful lives. The methods adopted and the rates used are:Buildings on freehold land 2% straight line Motor vehicles                                 25% on reducing balance Fixtures, fittings and equipment        10% straight line 

## **Revaluation of properties** 

Freehold properties are carried at revalued amount with the surplus or deficit on book value transferred to the revaluation reserve, except that a deficit in excess of a previously recognised surplus over depreciated cost is charged to the income and expenditure account. 

Where depreciation charges are increased following a revaluation, an amount equal to the increase is transferred annually from the revaluation reserve to the income and expenditure account as a movement on reserves. On disposal any related balance remaining in the reserve is similarly transferred to income and expenditure account. 

## **Debtors** 

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

## **Creditors** 

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably.  Creditors are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## **Financial Instruments** 

The company 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. 

## **Pensions** 

Retirement benefits to employees of the Trust are provided by a defined contribution pension scheme, whereby the assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the Trust in an independently administered fund. The Trust contributions are accounted for by charging costs against income as payments accrue.

## **1.2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)** 

## **Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty** 

The following judgements including estimates have been made in the process of applying the above accounting policies that have had the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements and that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year: 

(i) Depreciation method and asset useful lives (ii) Valuation of properties 

(iii) Impairment of assets 

The estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis considering the current and future market conditions.
