Directors' report period ended 31 March 2025

The directors present their report with the financial statements of the company for the period ended 31 March 2025

Principal activities of the company

Bristol Living Limited (‘the company’) was established to carry out the letting and management of residential properties. It had not traded since 2008 until, in March 2012, it began trading again to carry out the installation of photo-voltaic (PV) panels on the roofs of properties owned by its parent undertaking, Brighter Places (BP). BP has granted the company a licence allowing it to access the roof spaces as required to install the PV panels. As at 31st March 2025, PV panels had been installed on 129 properties. The company retains ownership of the panels themselves and has responsibility for their management and maintenance, as well as the collection of income in the form of the Feed-In-Tariff (FIT) and Export Tariff. The company uses the services of BP to assist in the day-to-day conduct of its activities in relation to the PV panels. These services include financial, legal and management services. A service level agreement is in place between the company and BP which governs the delivery and charges for these services. In the year to 31st March 2025 total income of £169,000 (2024: £172,000) has been received in the form of FIT and Export Tariffs. The company made a profit of £90,000 for the year to 31st March 2025 (2024: profit of £91,000). Under the agreement it has with BP, the company has transferred its taxable profits via gift aid to BP. No material uncertainties that may have caused significant doubt about the ability of the company to continue as a going concern have been identified by the directors.

Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 31 March 2025

  • 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 comprised of Feed in Tariff and Export Tariffs generated from the operation of the company’s PV panels. The Feed in Tariff is a fixed fee paid by the government for each unit of electricity produced by the company’s PV panels. Export Tariffs are received from utilities companies when the electricity generated from the company’s PV panels is exported to the National Grid. Both the Feed in Tariff and the Export Tariff are accounted for on a receivable basis and turnover is recognised when the electricity is generated. All turnover arises in the UK.

    Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

    Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) and Depreciation PPE are stated at historic cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes the purchase price of the asset plus any costs required to bring the asset into use. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only where it enhances the value of the asset or increases its useful life. Depreciation is charged on a straight line basis over the useful economic lives of the assets: Asset category Useful economic life/depreciation rate Photo-voltaic panels 25 years/4% per annum

    Other accounting policies

    **Basis of Accounting** The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified to include certain items at fair value, in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 (FRS 102) issued by the Financial Reporting Council, the Companies Act 2006. Bristol Living Limited is a private company limited by shares in England and Wales in the United Kingdom, registered number 06258558. **Disclosure exemptions** The Company's ultimate parent undertaking, Brighter Places, includes the Company in its consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements of Brighter Places are prepared in accordance with FRS 102 and are available to the public and may be obtained from Eden House, 10 Eastgate Park, Eastgate Road, Bristol, BS5 6XX. In these financial statements, the Company is considered to be a qualifying entity (for the purposes of this FRS) and has applied the exemptions available under FRS 102 in respect of the following disclosures: - Reconciliation of the number of shares outstanding from the beginning to end of the period - Cash Flow Statement and related notes - Key Management Personnel compensation - Transactions or balances with entities which form part of the Group - The disclosures required by FRS 102.11 Basic Financial Instruments and FRS 102.12 Other Financial Instrument Issues in respect of financial instruments not falling within the fair value accounting rules of Paragraph 36(4) of Schedule 1 **Going Concern** The Board has a reasonable expectation that the organisation has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements. **Expenditure** Cost of sales represents the depreciation charge on the company's assets. Administrative expenses include the costs of setting up the company's trading activities, bank fees, and the staff costs paid to BP under the service level agreement for finance, legal and tax services. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. **Restatement** The prior year treatment of gift aid donations by the company to its charitable parent has been updated and reclassified as an equity distribution to ensure that it is accounted for in line with FRS 102. The impact of this restatement was an increase in the profit previously reported for the year ended 31 March 2024 by £91k to £91k and an equal and opposite distribution recorded within the Statement of Changes of Equity. The net impact of this restatement on net assets as at 31 March 2024 is £nil. **Cash and cash equivalents** Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand and demand deposits, together with other short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
