  • 1. Accounting policies

    Basis of measurement and preparation

    These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A (Small Entities) of Financial Reporting Standard 102

    Turnover policy

    Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

    Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

    Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided at the following rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life: Plant and Machinery - 15% reducing balance

    Other accounting policies

    Taxation This organisation is a community Interest Company (CIC). This company is limited by guarantee - there is no share capital. Under the company's articles there is an 'asset lock' on the company's assets to prevent assets being distributed and it is also required to satisfy a community interest test. Profits and assets are retained within the CIC for community purposes, but they can also be transferred to another similar organisation such as another CIC or a charity e.g. if the CIC is dissolved. Although a CIC cannot itself have charitable status, we take the view that this company's activities are 'mutual' in nature and therefore do not amount to a taxable trade. Accordingly, profit chargeable to corporation tax includes only interest earned and excludes surpluses and losses. The directors do not consider that a trade is carried out.

Company activities and impact

The CIC provides a sanctuary for unwanted and at risk disabled animals. The animals rescued are either unwanted or abandoned. We cover veterinary costs, insurance, housing, fee and general welfare of the animals. We also offer tours and education to the surrounding community on farm animal welfare. We also have a caravan that is rented out with educational tours of the sanctuary. The rental income funds the sanctuary together with donations from the public. We post of social media as a way of educating and informing people about the welfare and behaviour of farm animals. We also find safe forever homes for pigs that we are unable to take on ourselves due to shortage of volunteers or funds. We offer disabled facilities for guests with disabilities. We help people keep their pigs by guiding and teaching how to look after them and get the set up right for their pigs. We regularly get requests for this guidance.
