We've also worked hard to remove barriers like travel and anxiety by offering a growing range of online clubs and emolional support sessions. Ifs made o real difference. Last year. 16% of Troopers said travel was a barrier to joining in, and 19% struggled with anxiety about attending in person. This year. both of Ihose figures. from our annual survey. dropped to 0%. We're excited to keep building on that progress. Volunteers remain vital to our work. Whether ifs offering exlra support. stepping in when needed or simply mokn.ng time for a chat, their commitment goes beyond the day- lo-day. That shared drive and compassion conlinue to shape the cuhure of FYF and the quality of support we provide. We now have 39 regularly supporting us and another 70 ready to step in when n￿ded. Many check in with Troopers who are struggling or unable lo attend clubs. making sure no one misses out on support. Others hosl clubs, drive, garden and more. Their time and energy help us reach more people and keep Ihe FYF spiril alive. We also wanl lo take a moment to acknowledge Ihe 33 Troopers we lost Ihis year. They were part of our family. ond theyre d￿PIY missed by staff, volunteers and fellow Troopers. Their loss is felt across clubs and conversations. and we'll continue to honour Iheir memory in all we do. This year has been all about fi-nding our f￿1 again. After a period ofchallenge and change. 2024 to 2025 saw us stepping foMard with more strength, more focus and a renewed sense of purpose.

We're pleased to report a surplus this year thanks to careful planning. smart decisions and a whole lot of hard graft from our brillianl team.

lost her leg to cancer over 25 years ago, when she was just a child. For years, she had no access to peer support, something she now realises would have made a huge difference. That’s why, when she found FYF, everything changed.

“Finding Your Feet changed my life in so many ways,” she says. “I will be forever grateful for what they’ve given me back - myself, and a sense of purpose to help others.”

Becoming a mum was another big turning point. Her son is now a lively toddler, and says parenthood has been one of the most fulfilling and eye-opening, experiences of her life.

“At first I was constantly thinking, am I holding him right? Am I doing this right? Am I being the mum he needs? I quickly learned that, no matter my amputation, all I had to do was approach everything with the love and care I feel for him and it would be okay and it was. At the end of the day, being an amputee doesn’t really come into it. I’m just his mum.”

is now a Peer Support Volunteer, visiting new amputees in hospital and offering encouragement in those early, often overwhelming, days. She also attends regular clubs and has become a much-loved part of the community.

After losing his leg in 2023 due to vascular issues, elt like he had lost everything. The ph challenges were tough, but the emotional ones hit even harder. He became isolated, struggling to see a way forward, and admits he didn’t think he’d still be here if it wasn’t for FYF.

One of the biggest turning points for Andy was reaching out to our Well-being Team for counselling. He said the support helped him open up in a way he hadn’t been able to before. With time, he began to feel more in control and more like himself again.

ame along to one of our AmpuTeas sessions and was immediately struck by how friendly and welcoming everyone was.

It was the first time he’d spoken to people who genuinely understood what he was going through. From there, he started attending regularly - not just to our social meet-ups, but to bowling and other clubs too. Slowly, things started to change.

In his own words, he went from “hiding away and doing nothing” to getting back out in the world . He’s lost weight, moved from a wheelchair to walking with a stick, and has even found the confidence to share his story in the hope it helps someone else. He’s passionate about encouraging more men to talk about mental health and says he’ll never stop telling people what a difference FYF made to him.

Structure, governance and management

Finding Your Feet is a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (SCIO), governed by a Board of Trustees, who are also the charity’s only members. We operate under our Constitution, first adopted on 26 November 2014 and last updated on 27 July 2020.

New Trustees can be proposed by the Founder, CEO or Trustees, with appointments confirmed by majority vote at a Board meeting. Each year, one third of Trustees (those who have served the longest since their last election) retire by rotation. Retiring Trustees are eligible for immediate reelection, and there is no limit to the number of terms they may serve. Trustees may resign at any time.

The Board has overall responsibility for the charity’s governance and strategy. Day-to-day operations are delegated to the Management Team, which comprises the Founder, CEO and one Trustee. Trustees receive regular updates and reports, and the Board meets quarterly as well and at the AGM.

Troopers are at the centre of everything we do, and their input helps shape the delivery and development of our services and projects.

Beyond dired support, we work to shrft how society s￿S amput￿s. We run campaigns and delNer education around lopics like sepsis. organ donation. diabetes and menlal health. helping Ihe wider public understand Ihe realities of limb loss. Our sepsis campaign with the Scottish Government increased awareness of Ihe condilion by 77%. helping people spot the signs earty and. in many cases, saving lives. c￿er Ihe years. we've reached some incredible mileslones.

A single mum wilh no peer support around her. Cor realised that while the NHS could help with her recovery, it couldnl offer support for Ihe emotional and social side of life after limb loss.

Principal aims and delivery of support Isolation is o huge challenge for many amputees. Studies have shown that without strong social connections, quality of lrfe and even life expedancy can be much lower. We welcome all amput￿ and individuals V￿th limb absence, regardless of age, background. religion, ethnicity, disability, gender, sexualty or political belief. Our support is rooted in friendship, understanding and knowing exadly how it feels - because we've been there loo. While our core areas for face-lo-face services include Aberdeen. Ayrshire. Dumfries. Dundee. Edinburgh. Frfe. Glosgow. Inverness. North Lanorkshire. Paisley. South Lanarkshire and Stirlingshire. geography is never a barrier lo accessing our support. If you can't get to o group in person, you're still very much part ofthe FYF family. Our online sessions. phone support and digilal activities mean we can reach ompulees wherever Ihey are in Scolland. Whether ifs peer support. counselling. or jusl a friendly chat. we'll moke sure you're not facing Ihings alone.

Breaking down barriers so more amputees can take part in physical adivity. Support progress in prosthetic research and development. 15

In the past year, 220 new amputees joined the FYF family. We’re now supporting nearly 1,550 Troopers and their families across Scotland. But given that over 800 amputations take place in Scotland each year we want this number to grow, and we are actively working on this. A new project focused on further strengthening relationships with NHS teams is already underway. By building closer links with more healthcare professionals, we hope to raise awareness of the support we offer and encourage more direct and indirect referrals.

We’ve also continued to grow the support that we offer. The number of clubs we run has increased by 12%, with a total of 17,495 attendances, a 15% rise on last year. Our new feedback forms are helping us tailor activities more closely to what our Troopers want, and we’re already seeing the benefits.

Emotional support has been a key focus. We’ve increased the number of emotional well-being sessions by 31%, which has led to a 15% rise in attendance for those clubs alone.

Most categories have grown, reflecting the feedback we’ve received and the ongoing changes we’ve made to meet the needs of the people we support. We’re confident this will increase attendance for the year ahead.

Our activities this year gave our Troopers the chance to try new activities, build confidence and feel part of a community. Every club, chat and cuppa played its part in helping our Troopers feel more connected, more confident and more themselves.

Trooper survey results

Each year, we ask our Troopers to share their thoughts on what’s working well and where we can do better. This helps us keep the charity Trooper-led and make sure we’re offering the right support in the right way.

The responses were full of insight and ideas, and they’re already helping to shape what we do next.

Our Ampu-Teas sessions in Paisley remain a firm favourite; full days packed with activities and workshops based on what Troopers ask for. Thanks to Tesco donating fruit, we’re nudging healthier habits, and we always make sure no one goes hungry. Lunch is free, and there’s always plenty of tea, coffee and cake thanks to our brilliant volunteers.

While Paisley is our largest and most active Ampu-Teas, we also host regular meetups across Aberdeen, Ayrshire, Dumfries, Dundee, Edinburgh, Fife, Glasgow, Inverness, North Lanarkshire, Paisley, South Lanarkshire and Stirlingshire.

These sessions focus on bringing people together over a cuppa and conversation, offering a consistent space for connection and

We also ran our third Family Fun Day, this time at Craigtoun Park, with another planned this July at the Scottish Deer Centre, kindly sponsored by Persimmon Homes. These days are a brilliant chance for Troopers and their families from across Scotland to come together, make memories and enjoy a proper day out.

Our second adventure weekend with the Calvert Trust was another highlight. It was packed with firsts, encouragement and friendship, not just between our Troopers but also with Amputation Foundation, another amputee charity from England. That shared experience was powerful. Everyone came away with new confidence, stronger bonds and a few stories to tell. Our third trip is already booked for September 2025, and thanks to National Lottery funding, more people can take part without financial barriers getting in the way.

We also took a big step forward this year with our Equip for Life programme. Thanks to a three-year grant from the Health and Social Care Alliance’s Self Management Fund, we ran two courses at the FYF Hub in Paisley between October 2024 and March 2025. Each group of five Troopers took part in a coach-led, peer-informed journey of self-management. The course was co-produced with our Troopers and volunteers, designed specifically for amputees to rebuild emotional resilience, reconnect with identity and form habits that support mental well-being. Feedback has been incredible. Participants told us it gave them back a sense of control, purpose and hope. We’re now developing an online version to make the course accessible to more people across Scotland and beyond.

“The Equip for Life course has made me feel that I am worthy and not hopeless.”

“It has made a difference in how I look at my self worth. I feel more confident about myself and this will in turn help me deliver to others through my volunteering.”

“I feel totally different about myself, like a completely different person. My husband always says he wishes I could see myself through his eyes, now I’m beginning to, I never thought that would happen.”

“I have really benefited from the course, my mental health has vastly improved and I’m looking forward to a brighter future.”

“Really enjoyed the course. It has changed my mindset and made me more positive about myself.”

“Big growth in self-awareness and focus for my goals, while being kinder to myself, especially when things get tough.”

We’re proud of the impact this work is having. It’s proof that with the right support, the right people and a whole lot of heart, life after amputation can be full of connection, confidence and community.

Trooper feedback “ “

Our Trooper Forum continues to grow and plays a big part in making sure we stay Trooper-led. It helps us listen, learn and take action across all areas of our work. Following a suggestion from our most recent survey, we’re now planning to assign a named staff member to each region so that Troopers have a clear point of contact. This will help us better meet local needs and expectations, both for individuals and groups.

We’ve also launched a new feedback form for our clubs, which goes out every fortnight to Troopers who’ve recently attended a session. It gives us regular insight into what’s working, what could be improved and what new clubs people would like to see.

“Knowing FYF are there is a huge comfort, they have also been very inclusive, welcoming and I’ve had opportunities to do things as an amputee which I know I wouldn’t have had without their support”

“When I became an amputee, there was nothing, no info, no groups, no social network etc. I think it’s wonderful to now have FYF to look out for amputees.”

All of this feedback helps shape the way we work. It lets us know if a club needs tweaking, if something new might be possible, or if there’s a better way to do things. It also strengthens our grant applications by giving us real voices and stories to share, showing the difference FYF makes to people’s lives.

“

“Thanks, FYF for everything you do for amputees. We are all different people facing various challenges, but many difficulties can be overcome by the support and kindness of other amputees who have experienced the same or similar situations.”

“ “ experienced the same or similar situations.” “Finding your feet is everything “FYF is whatever you want to me, FYF changed so many it to be, you can take as things in my life my mental much of the help and “ “ health, physical health and support you need or as avoiding the loneliness” little, it’s your choice.” “I’d be lost without my

“I’d be lost without my weightlifting session every week! Thank you FYF! And Cor’s journey has been a huge inspiration for me; I’ll be forever grateful for her support during the early days of my amputations.”

“Finding Your Feet are brilliant and without them new amputees would have no direction in their lives. FYF can help you with those first confusing steps which can make or break a person’s life when they have had life changing surgery.”

Grant funding

This year saw strong progress in our grant fundraising. We increased our capacity and consistency, which allowed us to apply for a wider range of grants, large and small, while keeping on top of all the reporting that comes with success.

We submitted 60 applications and were awarded 21 successful grants, raising £159,552 for programme costs and surpassing our annual target (however £84,873 of this will be spent in 20252026). We also secured a total of £97,041 in additional grants which were outwith our programme costs target.

A major highlight was receiving support from every Third Sector Interface we applied to for Scottish Government Communities Mental Health and Well-Being Funding. These included Engage Renfrewshire, Glasgow CVS, Edinburgh VOC, Aberdeen CVO, TACT Ayrshire, DVVA Dundee and Highland TSI. This consistent backing from Third Sector Interfaces across Scotland highlights the growing recognition of the positive impact FYF is making at a local level and reflects the trust placed in us to deliver meaningful support in communities across the country.

Agnes Hunter Trust, Alexander Moncur Trust, Bruce Wake Charitable Trust, Global’s Make Some Noise, Health and Social Care Alliance Scotland, HFD Foundation, Hugh Fraser Foundation, Mazars Charitable Trust, National Lottery Community Fund Scotland, People’s Health Trust, People’s Postcode Trust, Renfrewshire Council Leisure Grants, Shell, Souter Charitable Trust, Sported, Stagecoach, St James’s Place Foundation, Swarco, The Meikle Foundation and The Screwfix Foundation.

A standout achievement was securing our biggest single award to date. A grant of £92,245 from Renfrewshire Council’s Sustainable Communities Fund supported the transformation of our Hub garden, however a small portion of this will be completed in 2025-2026. This funding allowed us to build on the work we began in 2022 to reclaim the derelict space behind the building. It’s been a true team effort, shaped by ideas from our Troopers and the 11 other charities based at the Hub.

donation from has opened up creative opportunities for young Troopers and tenant organisations alike.

We’ve made the garden fully accessible with wheelchair-friendly paths, planting areas and seating, added power and Wi-Fi to each archway, and introduced features to encourage wildlife and create a calming, welcoming space. A new podcast and tech studio, funded by a generous £15,000

The space is now full of life, colour and community, and is being used for outdoor clubs, creative sessions and well-being activities that offer something a little different. As a stand-alone project, this funding sits separately from our programme costs. We’re also hugely grateful to Network Rail for providing us with the garden space at a peppercorn rent, which made this transformation possible.

In a tough funding climate, we’re proud of what we’ve achieved. It’s not just about the income raised. It’s about broadening our reach, building trust with new funders, and delivering support that reflects the needs and ideas of our community.

ReseNes At the end of the financial year, our total reseNes stood at £263,374 12024.. £222,577). of that, £2,500 is restrided, leaving £260,874 in fr￿ reserves. These funds give us a stable foundation going inlo 2025 10 2026 and will help us conlinue delivering our core programme of support for Troopers and Iheir families. We know costs are rising and the fundraising landscape is shifting. Thafs why we're keeping a close eye on spending while continuing to grow our income streams. This includes building new grant relationships. developing corporate partnerships. encouraging regular giving and launching our new referral partner programme. Our reseples policy helps proted the long-term stability of the charity. Trustees review reserve levels on a regular basis to make sure we can respond to whalever comes our way. We aim to hold enough in free cash reserves to cover at least four monlhs of operating costs. Any change to this approach would require vffitten approval from the full Board of Truslees. Membership oryani%Jtions We are currently members ofthe Renfrewshire Chamber of Commerce, The Scottish Council for Voluntary Organisalions ISCVOI and the Association of Chief Officers ofscottish Voluntary Organisations IACOSVOI. Going concern Financial review The Trustees ore nol aware of any other circumslances which would lead to Ihe winding up of Finding Your Feet. and thus are confident in its status as a going concem. We ended the financial year in a strong and stable position, even with some challenges along the way. While fundraising and supporter contributions didn't quite hit target, our granl income came in over 30% above what we'd planned. In loday's competitive funding world. thafs no small thing. It shows Ihe Irusl funders have in our work and the difference they believe we make. Declaration Thal success, alongside careful budgeting, solid govemonce and the ongoing support of our donors, volunteers and partners. means we're in a good place as we head into 2025 to 2026. e Trustees. report above.11 is signed Some of our income streams took a dip this year. Fundraising was 24% below target. after being ahead the year before. Supporter-led fijndraising was also lower than we'd hoped, down 52%. The good news is personal donations and Gift Aid stayed steady and our corporate donations more than doubled, giving us a real boost when we needed it. Income from our Day Hub was down around Il%. mainly because permanent tenancies bring in less than the one-off bookings we relied on before. One short-temi tenant left just before a n&v one started, so we also lost a month s income. But wilh lower staff costs and Iwo rooms slill to let. we're hopeful Ihis will pick up again soon. Grants remain our biggest source of funding. making up around 40% of our total turnover. We brought in over 30% more Ihan expeded Ihis year, boosted by Iwo project grants, one for the resloration of Ihe garden and anolher for Ihe new studio space. We kept a close watch on spending all year and came in £7.000 under budget. Thal surplus might seem small, bul ifs worth noting that around £80,1)00 in restrided grants is being corried forward inlo 2025/2026. These funds are lied to specific projects we'll delNer in the months ahead. It all comes down to smart decisions, strong syslems, and careful fi'nancial planning. 34 35

In our opinion, the financial statements: give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 31 March 2025 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, for the year then ended" have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generalty Accepted Accounting Practice: and have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scodand) Act 2005 and regulation 8 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 {as amended). Responslbllltles of Trustees As explained more fully in the statement of Trustees, report responsibilities, the Trustees are reswnsiLle for the preparation of the financial statements arK1 for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such intemal control as the Twstees detennine is necessary to enable the preparation of finanrial statements that are Iree from material misstatement. whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concem basis of accounting unkss the Trustees either intend to cease operations, or have no realistic ajiemative but to do so. Basls for oplnlon We conducted our audit in accordance with Intemational Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAS (UIQ) and applicatrle law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditorfs responsibilities for the audit or the financial slatements section of our report. We are independent of the Charity in accordance with the ethi￿1 requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK. including the FRC'S Ethical standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordan￿ with these requiremenls. We believe that the audit ewdence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Audltofs rnsponslblllt508 for the audlt of the financlal statements We have been appointed as auditor under section 44{1)(c) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder. Conclusions relating to going concern In auditing the financial statements, we have conduded that the trustees, (who are abo the directors of the Gornpany for Gornpany law purposes) use of the going concem basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Our approach lo identfying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and nonwcomFAiance with laws and regulations, was as follows.. ensured that the engagement team colkctivety had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise n0￿compliance appScable laws and regllations. We identified the laws and reg￿ationS applicable to the company through discussions with directors and management and from our kno￿ledge of the regulatory environment relevant to the company. È assessed the extent of compliance wth laws and ￿g[latIonS through making enquiries of management and inspeth'ng legal correspondence. We assessed the susceptibilty of the company's financial statements to material misstatement, induding obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by making enquiries of management as to where they ￿nSIdered there was susceptibilty to fraud and their kno￿edge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud. To address the risk of fraud through management bias arml override of controls, we tested joumal entries to identify unusual transactions, we assessed ¥thether judgements and assumptions made in detemining the accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias and we investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transaGtions. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relth'ng to events or conditions that, individually or collectivety, may cast signfficant doubt on the charitable company's ablty to conts'nue as a going concem for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concem are described in the relevant sections of this report. Other Infomiatlon The Trustees are responsible for the other information. The other infomiation comprises information induded in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not u)ver the other infomiation and we do not express any form of assurance condusion thereon. There are inherent limitations in our audrt procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likety tt is that we would become aware of nor￿cOmPliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify r￿n-cOMpli8nCe with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence. In connection with our audrt of the finanaal statements, our responsibilrty is to read the other infonnaknon and, in doing so, consider whether the other InfO￿natiOn is materially inconsistent with the ffinanaa statements or our knowledge obtained in the audrt or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identy such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to detemiine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other infonnation. H. based on the work have perfomed. we condude that there is a material misstatement of this other information. we are required to report that fact. Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion. A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council's website at.. https'.11 WbYW.frc.org.uklauditorsresponsibilities. This description fomis part of our auditorfs report. We have nothing to report in this regard. 36 37

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Vkhere costs cannot be directly attribLrted to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent )Mth the use of resources. Basic financial assets Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised. Basic financial liabilities Basic financial liabilities, induding creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction pri￿ unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. 1.6 Tangible fixed assets Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation. net of depreciation and any impaimient losses. Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases.. Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. Plant and equipment Fixiures and fittings 20 % Reducing Balance 20 % Reducing Balance Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-currenl liabililies. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities. Derecognition of financial liabilities Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Charity's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled. 1.7 Impairnient of fixed assets At each reporting end date, the Charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to detemiine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to detemiine the extent of the impaimient loss lif any). 1.11 Employee benefits The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's services are received. 1.8 Stocks Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition. Items held for distribution at no or nominal consideration are measured the lower of replacement cost and cost. Temiination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the Charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits. Critical accounting estimates and judgements In the application of the Charity's accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing. selling and distribution. 1.9 Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks. other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the eslimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods. 1.10 Financial instruments The Charily has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments, and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues, of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
