Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of
Pulvertaft Hand Charity

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Pulvertaft Hand Charity ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 July 2024.

Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Pulvertaft Hand Charity

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 July 2024

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: 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) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).

Income
Donations, legacies and similar incoming resources
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when:
The charity becomes entitled to the donation, legacy or similar income and any conditions for receipt are met;
The trustees are reasonably certain they will receive it; and
The trustees are reasonably certain that the value can be reliably measured.

Tax reclaims on donations and gifts
Incoming resources from tax claims are included on the SOFA as they are received from the Inland Revenue when applicable.

Incoming resources from fund raising
These are reported gross in the SOFA.

Gifts in kind for sale or distribution
These are included in the accounts as gifts only when sold or distributed by the charity. Gifts in kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount received.

Gifts in kind for use by the charity
These are included in the SOFA as incoming resources when receivable.

Intangible income (eg donated facilities)
This is only included in incoming resources (with an equivalent amount in resources expended) where another party is bearing the financial cost of the resources supplied and the benefit is quantifiable, receivable and material. Intangible income is valued at the lower of cost borne by the party bearing the cost and a reasonable estimate of the value of the donation to the charity.

Volunteer help
The value of any volunteer help received is not included in the accounts.

Investment income
This and any associated tax credit is included in the accounts when receivable.

Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
