for the Period Ended 30 September 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

    Accounting Policies 2.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 section 1A Small Entities "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. 2.2. Turnover 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. Turnover is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances. Sale of goods Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods has transferred to the buyer. This is usually at the point that the customer has signed for the delivery of the goods. Rendering of services Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs. Turnover is only recognised to the extent of recoverable expenses when the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably. 2.3. Taxation Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. The tax currently payable is based on taxable surplus for the year. Taxable surplus differs from surplus as reported in the statement of comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The company's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax is recognised on timing differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable surplus. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable timing differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable surplus will be available against which those deductible timing differences can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable surplus will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax liabilities are presented within provisions for liabilities and deferred tax assets within debtors. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflect the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Current and deferred tax are recognised in surplus or deficit for the year, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case current and deferred tax are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

Company activities and impact

The work undertaken by Creative Force from October 2023 to September 2024 was limited and focused on working on smaller projects to bring creativity to young people, mainly 5-12 year olds, and to carers, which, with all of our Directors having undertaken caring roles, we bring real life experience to. We delivered workshops for Christmas / New Year 2023, and for Easter and Summer 2024 Health and Activities programmes at Willingdon Trees Community Centre, based in an economically deprived area in Eastbourne. For Christmas we made carton lanterns, Christmas trees, cards and santas. For new Year we used paper plates to create crowns, all simple yet effective. Every child was able to take something home. We also provided chalk pens for creating Christmas drawings on windows, which also served to provide decoration to the community centre for everyone to enjoy. In March 2024 we delivered a workshop for young people through Eastbourne Education Business Partnership. Small groups of young people, year 6 students attend for a morning to learn about business. Creating something for the Eastbourne Carnival is used as a basis for the learning. Creative Force provided a workshop for a few of the students to make their own masks, determine how much the costs would be and how they would then market the masks to the public. Caring Beyond Belief: Celebrating Caring, Celebrating Diversity’ took place at The Victoria Pavilion, a venue already used by Carer for the Carers as Uckfield Carers Centre, and also widely used by the local community. It was funded by The Chalk Cliff Trust Held in June 2024, the event: Was pen to anyone who is a carer, although targeted carers from ethnically and culturally diverse backgrounds, so bringing together a broad range of carers from all communities; In so doing, we celebrated carers from all backgrounds, recognising their needs and introducing them to the support available to them that is sensitive to culture, ethnicity and religious belief; Offered wellbeing sessions throughout the day, chosen by ethnically and culturally diverse carers to recognise their different cultural heritages. As we were working alongside Care for the Carers, working with some of their carers from diverse backgrounds to co-produce this event, this gave the project a greater profile and support from a well established and recognised organisation in East Sussex. Celebrated and enjoyed the sharing of food, including a ‘bring your own dish’ element, which we have always found is an excellent way to break down barriers and to share experiences. Everyone has to eat and most people enjoy indulging in different cultures via food! The event was also be open to any member of the general public, and to professionals who were interested in learning more about local carers experiences, and what support is available to them.

Consultation with stakeholders

Creative Force strives to involve people from all backgrounds and from less heard from communities in its work. We spend considerable time networking and making new contacts which will assist us in our aim to work with these communities as well as the general public. When developing projects, Creative Force always consults with stakeholders prior to applying for funding, delivering workshops etc. Much of our work involves consultation at its core and we seek feedback, finding out what local people have enjoyed about our events plus what more they would like included, how they would like to be involved etc. We use this feedback to develop our future projects. In some situations, we facilitate workshops using creative techniques to challenge and develop ideas from people who will benefit most from the plans that are then produced as a result of them. For Caring Beyond Belief, we worked directly with carers from diverse communities to co-produce the event. This engagement created a wonderful programme of joy and relaxation for the carers and a sense of fulfilment that they’d been involved. With our funded projects we consult in the preparation of application with the organisations we will be working with during delivery and, where possible, with people who are likely to be direct beneficiaries. It is imperative that we do this to shape the projects and to ensure that we are delivering best practice as well as quality work that has the greatest impact. We are keen for people to learn about their locale, its history and its community whilst sharing skills and developing new ones, particularly creative skills.
