  • 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, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when goods have been delivered to customers such that risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to them. 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.

    Other accounting policies

    Financial instruments Basic financial instruments are recognised at amortised cost, except for investments in non-convertible preference and nonputtable ordinary shares which are measured at fair value, with changes recognised in profit or loss. Derivative financial instruments are initially recorded at cost and thereafter at fair value with changes recognised in profit or loss.

Company activities and impact

In this accounting period, we continued to develop our website as well as social media – esp twitter and instagram. We continued to develop Jaag as an offshoot of Literature Must Fall CIC. We held a Panjabi & Pahari-Pothwari Language and Literature festival in June 2024 in Birmingham for which we received funding from the Arts Council. The festival, which was inter-generational and brought different communities together, was in a college and library in Handsworth. 300 - 400 people attended, from Handsworth, across Birmingham and the UK. During this period, we also organised a monthly reading group in Handsworth.
