Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 31 December 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

    Other accounting policies

    Government Grants Government grants are recognised at the fair value of the asset received or receivable. Grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the entity will comply with the conditions attaching to them and the grants will be received. Government grants are recognised using the accrual model and the performance model. Under the accrual model, government grants relating to revenue are recognised on a systematic basis over the periods in which the entity recognises the related costs for which the grant is intended to compensate. Grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the entity with no future related costs are recognised in income in the period in which it becomes receivable. Grants relating to assets are recognised in income on a systematic basis over the expected useful life of the asset. Where part of a grant relating to an asset is deferred, it is recognised as deferred income and not deducted from the carrying amount of the asset. Under the performance model, where the grant does not impose specified future performance-related conditions on the recipient, it is recognised in income when the grant proceeds are received or receivable. Where the grant does impose specified future performance-related conditions on the recipient, it is recognised in income only when the performance-related conditions have been met. Where grants received are prior to satisfying the revenue recognition criteria, they are recognised as a liability.

Company activities and impact

Our Chapels CIC has continued this year to work with the local authority to take on the management and regeneration of the two derelict chapels in Atherton Cemetery. In July they received a license from Wigan Council allowing the architects to get onsite and undertake the quinquennial survey and instruct a quantity surveyor to add the associated costings for the initial stages of repair and restoration of the buildings’ fabric. Our mission is directed by the community consensus that they want to see the chapels saved and put to community use. This objective is all subject to receiving relevant permissions, a successful asset transfer of the buildings and funding achieved to realise our ambitions. The CIC continue to consult to ensure their mission remains what the community want. Whilst paperwork, meetings and legalities have taken time this year, the CIC have held events to harness the community and demystify the cemetery space, cultivating future audiences for the chapels and also gaining further consultation. Attending community wide events, and our arranged Bat, Birdsong and Fungii walks have helped us to keep engaged with the community, fundraise and continue momentum, celebrating the natural heritage and consulting in the chapels at the same time.
