Sadly, over the summer, racism which is so often unseen erupied into parades and violence which brought, in
particular, racism and Islamophobia into plain sight. This deeply affects the mental well being of our clients, staff,
counsellors, interpreters and many Board members and their families.
We remain convinced that CANS provides much needed unique client centred service. Our Board and counsellors
see Ihe need for CANS in their work and in their own communities.
As we look forward, we are embedding ongoing changes in structure and technology so we can build on the growth of
the past years and continue to develop the work of CANS increasing the depth of psychological therapies we offer
and the number ofclients we can help.

applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland FRS 102"
Cash flow statement
The charity has availed of the exemption in FRS 102 from the requirement to produce a cash flow statement
because it is classified as a small charity.
Fund accounting
The following are the categories of funds maintained..
Restricted funds
Restricted funds represent income received which can only be used for particular purposes. as specified by
the donors. Such purposes are within the overall objectives of the charity.
Unrestricted funds
Unrestricted fijnds consist of General and Designated funds.
General funds represent amounts which are expendable at the discretion of the board, in furtherance of the
objectives of the charity.
Designated fvnds comprise unreslricted funds that the board has, at its discretion. set aside for particular
purposes. These designations have an administrative purpose only, and do not legally reslrict the board's
discretion lo apply the fund.
Income
Income is recognised by inclusion in the Statement of Financial A¢tivities only when the charity is legally
entitled to the income, perfonnance conditions attached lo the item{s) of income have been met. the amounts

arrangements and from performance related grants whiGh have conditions that specify the provision of
particular services to be provided by the charity. Income from government and other co-funders is recognised

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the financial year ended 31 March 2024
Grants from governments and olher co-funders typically include one of the following types of condilion5'.
Perfomiance based conditions: whereby the charity is contractually entitled lo funding only to the extent that
the core objectives of the grant agreement are achieved. Where the charity is meeting the core objectives of a
grant agreement, it recognises the related expenditure, to the extent that it is reimbursable by the donor, as
income.
Time based conditions.. whereby the charity is contractually entitled to funding on the condition that it is
ulilised in a particular period. In these cases the charity recognises the income to the extent it is utilised within
the period spe¢ified in the agreement.
In the absen￿ of such conditions, assuming that receipt is probable and the amount can be reliably
measured, grant income is recognised once the charity is notified of entitlement.
Grants received lowards capital expenditure are credited to the Statement of Financial Activities when
received or receivable, whichever is earlier.
Expenditure
Expenditure is analysed between costs of charitable activities and raising funds. The costs of each activity are
separately accumulated and disclosed, and analysed according to their major components. Expenditure is
recognised when a legal or constructive obligation exisls as a result of a past event, a transfer of economic
benefits is required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be reliably measured. Support costs
are those fvnctions that assist the work of the charity but cannot be attributed to one activity. Such costs are
allocated to activities in proportion to staff time spent or other suitable measure for each activity.
Debtors
Debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any discount offered. Prepayments are valued al
the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. Income recognised by the charity from government
agencies and other Go-funders, but not yet received at financial year end, is included in deblors.

Cash at bank and in hand comprises cash on deposit at banks requirtng less than three months notice of
wilhdrawal.

valued added tax is expensed a5 incurred.
