    Other accounting policies

    Statutory information The company is a private company limited by guarantee and registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page. Statement of compliance The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006 and FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland including Section 1A Small Entities. Basis of preparation The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with FRS 102, the financial reporting standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (as applied to small entities by section 1A of the standard) Revenue from sale of goods Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the company has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods, usually when goods are delivered and legal title has passed. Providing the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transition can be measured reliably. Revenue from rendering of services Revenue 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. Employee benefits Short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for the employee's services to the company. Where employees have accrued short-term benefits which the entity has not paid by the balance sheet date, an accrual is recognised within creditors: amounts falling due within one year together with an associated expense in profit or loss. The liabilities are classified as current obligations in the statement of financial position because they are expected to be settled wholly within twelve months after the end of the period. Foreign currency translation Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recognised at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. At the end of each reporting period foreign currency monetary items are translated at the closing rate of exchange. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost are translated at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. All differences are charged to profit or loss.

Company activities and impact

In the 2024/25 Tax Year Rama Life provided Education to young people all year round with Home Education groups, Alternative Provision and Holiday Clubs. The young people benefited were from the local community within 10 miles of South Petherton and the wider community of South Somerset, North Dorset and East Devon. The groups have improved access to education, improved knowledge and skills through educational activities, increased wellbeing through activities to boost confidence and self- esteem and reduced isolation in young people who may otherwise struggle to access groups due to neurodiversity, anxiety or trauma. Young people have learned about history, the world, nature and different cultures through art, skill building opportunities, games, storytelling, prepared “lessons” and hands-on learning. In July 2024 we moved into our own full time premises and were able to expand our groups and services and offer a more comfortable, secure and enriching environment for our sessions. Rama Life benefits the community of: - Young people in general - Home Educated young people - Working parents - Neurodivergent families

Consultation with stakeholders

Our stakeholders are: - Young People and families in our Community - SEND Community (both children and families) - Home Educating Community (both children and families) - Our team We engage with them through: - Online surveys - Online forum for parents - In person feedback directly from young people in sessions, which helps us know how effective our groups are, what works and what might need changing. Young people also use these times to shape what we offer in the groups. - Conversation with parents on collection, drop-off and when they have an issue to resolve and ask for support. In the 2024/25 year young people chose 90% of what they wanted to learn about in: - Skills and Social Sessions - Holiday Club Parents and young people asked for a consistent space for groups to run from where there was parking, easy access outdoor space for young people and somewhere the young people could leave work to be continued the following session. Our team asked for this as well, so they could have a single working location and be able to easily access resources. We listened to this and in July 2024, took over the lease on The Shed, which is where we had run Holiday Club from previously. The Shed provided an excellent space for sessions both indoors and outdoors and has room for expansion. Parents asked for improved communication – so we recruited an administrator in January 2025 to support the business, the CEO and families.
