The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

Income and expenditure represents the value of services provided or received under contracts to the extent that there is a right to consideration and is recorded at the value of the consideration due or payable.

Where a contract has only been partially completed at the balance sheet date, income and expenditure represents the value of the service provided or received to date based on a proportion of the total expected consideration at completion. Where payments are received from customers or paid to contractors in advance of services provided or received, the amounts are recorded as deferred income or expenditure and included as part of creditors due within one year or debtors.

The company has the following financial instruments:

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the profit and loss account because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes 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 reporting end date.

The average monthly number of persons (including directors) employed by the company during the year was 1 (2024 - 1).

The company is limited by guarantee, not having a share capital and consequently the liability of members is limited, subject to an undertaking by each member to contribute to the net assets or liabilities of the company on winding up such amounts as may be required not exceeding £1.
