Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 31 July 2024

  • 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, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services.

    Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

    All fixed assets are initially recorded at cost. Property, plant and equipment is used in the company's principal activity for the production and supply of goods or for administrative purposes and is stated in the balance sheet under the historic cost model. This model requires the assets to be stated at cost less amounts in respect of depreciation and less any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value (which is the expected amount that would currently be obtained from disposal of an asset, after deducting the estimated costs of disposal, if the asset were already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life), over the useful economic life of the respective asset as follows: Plant and machinery - 4 years straight line Fixtures and fittings - 4 years straight line Vehicles - 4 years straight line Office Equipment - 3 years straight line

COMMUNITY INTEREST ANNUAL REPORT

RESILIENT LIVES CIC

Company Number: 12716517 (England and Wales)

Year Ending: 31 July 2024

Company activities and impact

The company has operated in 2 areas during this year. These have been commercially, and as a training operation, via our Pizza Pirates trading arm. And as a wellbeing support operation via our Dough Bro’s programme. Pizza Pirates runs a weekly takeaway and events-catering business that employs young people and adults recovering from poor mental health on real living wage roles teaching them how to make authentic pizzas and customer service skills. Staff are supported in their wellbeing and onward career development. In this financial year we have supported 2 members of staff through homelessness and 1 through addiction recovery. All staff member are encouraged to help with decision-making within the business and are encouraged to bring their skills to menu development and marketing tasks. Dough Bro’s is a weekly men’s mental health support programme using pizza making to help bring men together and talk about their feelings. In this period groups were run primarily in Totnes, Devon. Over this period, we worked with approximately 60 men, with average group sizes of 14 men per week. Participants reported significant increases in their self-esteem, communication skills, relationships and hopes for the future. We have since been asked to run groups in other areas around South Devon.

Consultation with stakeholders

Our main stakeholders are young people and men struggling with their mental health. For our young employees, we coach and supervise them regularly, part of which is asking how they are finding their roles, and what changes they think would be useful to make working conditions easier or more streamlined. This has led to us changing opening times, shift patterns and working processes. In 2022 we employed a general manager to oversee a shift in working practices and protocols based on this feedback. This new role helped to bring in new food productions processes to ensure that less experienced staff members could be trained by their more experienced peers more easily. This came about as a result of requests to improve our on-the-job training. Our Dough Bro’s programme moved more into a peer-support format over this period, reducing the reliance on a paid staff member to facilitate. This came about after consultation with participations around their need for a weekly ongoing space that needed to happen even when a staff member was unavailable. We conducted numerous conversations within groups with participants around what would be needed to make the group less reliant on staff support. It led to the creation of a Dough Bro’s “handbook” comprising session plan, scripts for starting and closing sessions, set-up/close-down procedures, food safety guidelines and safeguarding information.

Directors' remuneration

The total amount paid or receivable by directors in respect of qualifying services was £30,000. There were no other transactions or arrangements in connection with the remuneration of directors, or compensation for director’s loss of office, which require to be disclosed.

Transfer of assets

No transfer of assets other than for full consideration
