Accountlng policies
Basls of preparatlon
The flnancial statements have bèèn prepared on the historical cost basls, as modlfied by the revaluation
of certaln financial assets and Ilabilities and investment propertles measured at fair value through profit
or loss.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, whlch is the functional currency of the entlty.
Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideratlon received or receivable for goods supplied
and services rendered, net of disoounts and Value Added Tax.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have
transferred to the buyer (usually on despatch of the goods),. the amount of revenue can be measured
reliably,. it is probable that the associated economlc benefits will flow to the entity,. and the costs Incurred
or to be incurred in respect of the transactlons can be measured reliably.
Taxatlon

reporting period. Tax Is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income, except to the extent that
it relates to items recognised in other comprehenslve income or directly in capital and reserves. In thls
case, tax is recognised in other comprehenslve income or directly in capital and reserves, respectively.

Year ended 31 March 2025
Tangible assets
Tangible assets ar8 initlally recorded at cost, and are subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated
depreciation and Impairment losses.
Any tsnglble assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation
less any subsequent accumulated depreclatlon and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluatlon, Is recognised in other
comprehensive income and accumulated in capital 8nd reserves, except to the extent it reverses a
revaluation decreas8 of the same asset previously recognlsed in profit or loss. A decrease in the
arrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation Is recognised in other comprehensive income to
the extent of any prevlously recognised revaluation increase accumulated in capital and reseNes in
respect of that asset. Where a revaluation dècrease exceèds the accumulated revaluation gains
accumulated in capital and reserves in respect of that asset, the excess shall be recognised in profit or
Ioss.
Depreclatlon
Depreclation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuatlon of an asset, less its residual value,
over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Flttlngs fixtures and equipment
Motor vehicles
reducing balance
stralght line
20/0
If there is an indication that there has been a significant change In depreclatlon rate, useful life or
resldual value of tangible assets, th8 depreciation is revised prospectively to reflect the n8w estlmates.
Impairment
A review for indicators of Impalrment is carried out at each reportlng date, with the recoverable amount
being estlmated where such indicators exlst. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable
amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for posslble reversal at
each reporting date.
When it is not posslble to estimate the recoverable amount of an Indlvidual asset, an estimate is made
of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to whlch the asset belong5. The cash-generating
unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that Includes the asset and generates cash inflows that
are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.

Financlal Instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the company becomes a paty to the
contractual provlslons of the instrument,
Baslc financial instruments are Inltlally recognised at the transaction price, unless the arrangement
constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments
dlscounted at a market rate of Interest for a similar debt instrument.
Debt instruments are subs8qU8ntly measured at amortised cost.
Where Investments in non-conv8rtible preference shares and non-puttable ordinary shares or
preference shares are publicly traded or their fair value can oth81WIS8 be measured rellably, the
Investment is subsequently measured at fair value with changes In falr value recognised in profit or loss.
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 valua 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 recognlsed In
profit or loss, wlth the exception of hedglng Instruments in a designated hedging relationship.
Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortlsed cost are reviewed for objective evidence of
Impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an
impalrment Ioss is recognised In profit or lo55 immediately,
For all equity instruments regardless of signlflcance, and other financial assets that are Indlvldually
significant, these are assessed indivldually for impairment. Other financlal assets or either assessed
individually or grouped on the basls of similar credit risk characteristics.
Any reversals of impalrment are recognised In profit or loss immediately, to the extent that the reversal
does not result in a carrying amount of the financlal asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would
have been had the Impairment not previously been recognised.
