## Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 31 August 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.

  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: Furniture, fittings and equipment 33% reducing balance

  Other accounting policies

  Taxation Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from the surplus as reported in the income and expenditure account because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and 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 end of the reporting period. Deferred tax is recognised on timing differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible timing differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Current or deferred tax for the year is recognised in the income and expenditure account, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively. Trade and other debtors Trade and other debtors are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Trade and other creditors Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Company activities and impact

Rebel Sparks CIC are a theatre company with an emphasis on working with communities to influence their work, to provide creative opportunities for communities to make theatre and to enable people from lower socio economic background to have access to culture. Between 2025-26 - We offered free baby aerial sessions for babies and their carers in Nottingham - We took workshops to areas of low engagement including Mansfield, Erewash, Chesterfield etc These projects benefited - Families with babies Zero to Eighteen months, parents and carers, low socio-economic and or cultural engagement areas. - BAME families who rarely see themselves represented in theatre - People with disabilities and or neurodiversity that wish to engage in a fun, supportive environment. The shows were performed in a relaxed accessible set up. - Families looking for opportunities to connect and share experiences. - Fans of Circus, storytelling, fantasy, children's books eg. The Little Feminist Series, She Persisted & The Princess Knight.

Consultation with stakeholders

- Parents/babies- We used the baby/carer workshops to influence he creation of the show. They attended classes and sharings of their work. - We collected detailed feedback from audiences and peers at the sharings. We observed how the babies responded and gathered feedback from the parents/carers with their own feedback and how they viewed the interaction from their children. This feedback was then addressed, developed for the full production.
