Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Year Ended 30 September 2025

1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION

| Oxford Gliding Company Limited is a private company and Community Amateur Sports Club, limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales and has its registered office at Boston House, Boston Road, Henley-on-Thames, RG9 1DY.

| The principal activity of the company was that of the provision of gliding facilities and the promotion of participation in the amateur sport of Gliding and Flying in Oxford and the surrounding area.

| The financial statements are presented in Sterling (£), which is also the functional currency of the company.

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES

| Basis of preparing the financial statements

| These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

| Turnover

| Revenue (described as turnover) is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue comprises invoiced amounts less discounts. Revenue from membership subscriptions is recognised on a straight-line basis over the subscription period to reflect the timing, nature and value of the benefits provided. Revenue from flying fees are recognised in the period the service is provided.

| Tangible fixed assets

| Tangible fixed assets held for the companies own use are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives as below:

| Hangar | - Over term of lease |

| Aircraft | - Straight line over 40 years |

| Major winch parts | - Straight line over 25 years |

| General equipment | - Straight line over 15 years |

| Cable retrieve vehicles | - Straight line over 3 years |

| At each balance sheet date, the company reviews the carrying amount of its tangible fixed assets to determine whether there is any indication that any items have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any.

| Operating lease rentals

| Leases that do not transfer all the risks and regards of ownership are classified as operating leases. Payments under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

| Financial instruments

| Trade and other debtors are initially recognised at transaction price and are subsequently remeasured to amortised cost using the effective interest method, less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts, except where the effect of discounting would be immaterial. In such cases, the receivables are stated at cost less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.

| Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand, demand deposits with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts, when applicable, are shown within current liabilities.

| Trade and other creditors are initially recognised at transaction price and are subsequently remeasured to amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.

| Going concern

| The accounts have been prepared on the assumption that the company is able to carry on business as a going concern which the directors consider appropriate having regard to the circumstances outlined in the notes to the accounts.

3. | EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

| The average number of employees during the year was NIL (2024 - NIL).
