The Clive West Memorial Trust Company Limited by Guarantee Notes to the Financial Statements Year ended 31 May 2024 General Inforniatlon The charitable company is a public benefit entity and a private company limiied by guarantee, registered in Northern Ireland and a registered charity in Northern Ireland. The address of the registered office is 9 Kincora Avenue, Belfast, Co. Antrim, BT4 3DW, Northem Ireland. Slatement of compllance These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland,, the 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) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Companies Act 2006. Accounllng pollcles Basls of preparatlon These financial statements are prepared on a going concem basis, under the historical cost convention, as modified. where appropriate, by the recognition of certain financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value. The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. 11 also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the charitys accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed below. The charity's functional and presentation currency is the pound sterling. Golng concem After making enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operaiional existence for the foreseeable future. The charity, therefore, continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements. 10
The Clive West Memorial Trust Company Llmited by Guarantee Notes to the Flnanclal Statements (¢ontlnuod) Year ended 31 May 2024 Accountlng pollcies (contlnued) Judgements and key sources of estlmatlon uncertalnty The preparation of the financial stalements requires the Trustees to make judgements, estimales and assumptions that allect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors. including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Consequently, actual reSUS may differ from these estimates. Significant Judgements To be a key judgement, the subject matter must relate to something other than assumptions about the future or making estimates and typically relate to significant issues in applying accounting standards where the Trustees applied judgement in situations where a differenl judgement might have led to a materially different accounting treatment. The judgements (apart from those involving estimations) that the Trustees have made in the process of applying the entity's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are as follows: Going Concern The Trustees confirm that at the time of approving the financial statements, there are no material uncertainties regarding the charity's ability to conlinue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. In arriving at this conclusion, the Trustees have taken account of current and anticipated income and outgoings in the current economic conditions. including the impact of COVID-19, and its reserves position. For this reason, Ihe going concern basis continues to be adopted in the preparation of the charity's financial statements. Key Sources of Estimation unrtaInty Accounting estimates and assumptions are made concerning the future and, by their nature, will rarely equal the related actual outcome. They are, by nature, subjective and result in a risk that a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities may be required as a result of changes in those assumptions or estimates in the next period. The Trustees consider that no key estimates have made in the process of applying the charity's accounting policies in the financial statements. Taxatlon The Trustees consider that all income received and expenditure incurred is related to the company's charitable objects and, hence, the charity is not subject to corporation tax on any sury)luses. 11

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular future project or commitment. Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure declared by the donor or through the ierms of an appeal, and fall into one of two sub-classes.. restricted income funds or endowment funds. Incom5ng 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 lo measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated resale value. Donated facilities and seNices 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 Ihe delivery ol 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. 12
The Clive West Memorial Trust Company Llmlted by Guarantee Notes to the Financial Statements (witlnuedl Year ended 31 May 2024 Accounllng policles (contlnued) 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 ol the statement of financial aclivilies to which it relates: expendilure on raising funds includes Ihe costs of all fundraising activities, events, non- charitable 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 lis expenditure on charitable activilies. All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attribulable 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. Donated servlces It is not possible to reasonably quantify the value of the services provided by volunteers to the Trust and, therefore, donated services are not recognised in the financial statements. Flnanclal Instruments A financial assel or a financial liability is recognised only when the charitable company 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 discounied. Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost. 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 rale, 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. 13

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 insiruments 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.
