NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST JULY 2025

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Welcare Guardian Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

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
Turnover represents the fair value of the company's right to consideration in respect of services rendered during the year excluding VAT.

Will security bank
The company charges its clients an annual membership fee payable by standing order for the provision of a number of legal services supplied by the company's panel solicitors. These include legal advice,will storage, will updates and discounted legal assistance.
Membership fees are payable annually throughout the lifetime of the client.
Clients wills are stored at the office of the solicitor initially instructed to write the will in order that the document should be held safely and is capable of location upon the event of the death of the client.
The average age of the company's clients is early forties and the average life expectancy a further 36 years. The director estimates that 1/5 of the costs associated with taking the initial instructions from the client may be attributed to securing the client's instruction to join the legal support membership scheme and the company has therefore adopted a policy of capitalising 1/5 of sales commissions paid in the year as an addition to the will security bank.
The value of the will security bank is amortised at a rate of 3% per annum straight line to reflect the anticipated lapse rate of the scheme membership. The value of the will bank at 31st July 2025 is £1,129,739.
