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 measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Turnover is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when all the following conditions are satisfied: - the Company has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods; - the Company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold; - 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 transaction can be measured reliably. Specifically, revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when goods are delivered and legal title is passed.

    Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

    Tangible fixed assets held for the company's own use are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. 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 an asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off the cost or valuation less the estimated residual value of each asset over its estimated useful life: Leasehold land and buildings: 10% Straight line Plant and machinery: 25% Reducing balance Furniture, fittings and equipment: 25% Reducing balance

    Other accounting policies

    Grants Grants are credited to deferred income. Grants towards capital expenditure are released to the profit and loss account over the expected useful life of the assets. Grants towards revenue expenditure are released to the profit and loss account as the related expenditure is incurred.

The PRSC has continued to engage in work to help Stokes Croft maintain it’s status as a Cultural Quarter, and through cultural and community activities help the people who live and work here develop towards a desirable future for this often neglected neighbourhood. We have continued to work with many stakeholders, from local politicians, businesses, artists and homeless community (to name a few) to support other organisations and projects, develop more of our own, and engage with the many issues faced in and around Stokes Croft. This has all been supported by the ongoing work of Stokes Croft China, in decorating and selling fine bone china and other products (prints, cards etc).

Consultation with stakeholders

The primary stakeholders of PRSC are the residents of Stokes Croft, and those who work or spend large amounts of time here, and other organisations based in, or with an interest in Stokes Croft. This includes the artists and others who work at PRSC and with us on various projects. There are many forums in which the future of Stokes Croft is discussed. PRSC usually has a presence at these meetings. There are both formal and informal connections with the business owners operating in the area & the community at large.
