TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
- 1 -

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and “Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016)

Objectives and activities

During 2025, WORK Ltd continued to deliver its core charitable objectives of supporting adults with significant learning disabilities through education, skills development, and community engagement. In its 31st year, the charity maintained a strong focus on providing a structured, creative environment for individuals facing barriers to employment and independent living.

A wide range of person-centred training programmes and workshops were delivered, including arts and crafts, cookery, horticulture, music, and vocational activities. The expansion of the Kreate site significantly enhanced provision, introducing new opportunities such as resin and Jesmonite crafts, retail experience, photography, and multimedia production.

The Hidden Gem Café and retail operations continued to provide valuable real-world experience, helping learners develop confidence, communication, and workplace skills, while contributing to the charity’s sustainability.

A key achievement in 2025 was the successful delivery of an international educational exchange programme with Sakura Nada Special School in Japan. This initiative improved student confidence and cultural awareness, while enabling staff to gain new professional insights. It also established a foundation for ongoing international collaboration.

The charity also progressed with infrastructure improvements and capacity building, including developments at the Kreate site and enhanced accessibility. Supported by grant funding and community contributions, WORK Ltd continued to provide high-quality, tailored support to individuals with complex needs.

Overall, 2025 has been a year of growth and development, strengthening the charity’s impact and positioning it for continued future success.

WORK Ltd has been established for 31 years. We support adults (16+) who have significant learning disabilities with engagement, learning, commercial crafts production and well-being activities. The Charity is governed by a board of local Trustees. It is run and managed by three Centre Managers. Our organisation was established to provide a creative educational environment for adults with learning difficulties that impact their intellectual capacity to the point that ‘regular’ employment is a near impossibility. Over the years we have established various ‘workshops’ with experienced staff supporting learners on a variety of arts and crafts activities. These ‘workshops’ include cookery, jewellery manufacturing, painting, seasonal card creations, stained-glass production, horticulture, dance, music & performance amongst others. The crafts that our learners produce are sold via our retail unit (attached to our ‘Hidden Gem Café’) and online via platforms such as ‘Etsy'. We have now expanded on what we can offer our learners by opening our second site K r eate. This new location allows us to broaden the range of hands-on workshops and creative opportunities available. Learners can now explore a variety of engaging activities, including working with Jesmonite and resin, developing photography skills, and gaining real-world retail experience within our home and giftware store. Additionally, they have full access to our state-of-the-art multimedia classroom, where they learn to produce and edit their own podcasts, operate professional equipment, and develop essential digital media skills. Most of our learners are referred to us through Sheffield City Council Social Services and our focus is always on supporting each student feel ‘purpose’ through tailored educational training programmes, creativity and expert led pastoral care. While all our learners require constant support through either ourselves, their families or their carers our aim is, and has always been, to develop life skills, confidence, social interactions and self-esteem.

We support students with a variety of moderate to severe intellectual learning disabilities. All of our learners have a significantly impaired capacity to develop new skills and face daily challenges around behaviours such as social skills and hygiene routines which require continuous supervision. All learners have associated diagnosed learning disabilities such as Downs Syndrome, Autism, Epilepsy, Specific Language Disorders, Hearing Impairment, and often present an overlapping of myriad neurological challenges that compound their intellectual capacity. Whilst an oversimplification of the intellectual disabilities our learners face,16% have Downs Syndrome, 69% Moderate Autism and 15% are at the more severe end of the Autistic spectrum. All of our students have a significantly reduced ability to understand new or complex information, develop new skills and cope independently. Our students face huge day-to-day challenges, they require specific and consistent routine in their daily activities; from getting up, what they eat, transport arrangements and obviously the activities we provide at WORK Ltd. The majority of our students cannot read or write; however we are able to help them slowly learn new skills through guided education and repetition of workshop activities

Charitable purposes (Public Benefit)

In setting plans and priorities for areas of work the Board of WORK Ltd has had regard to the guidance from the Charity Commission on the provision of Public Benefit, with particular attention paid to how planned activities will contribute to meeting the objectives of WORK Ltd.

The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 4 of the 2011 Charity Act to have due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission regarding public benefit.

Significant activities

The various projects that are carried out at WORK Ltd by the students include:

Main Workshop – Staffed by qualified Tutors, support assistants and volunteers and where all main assembly work is done including woodwork, printing, textiles, arts and crafts.

Glass Room – Where stained glass products and Jewellery are made by the students.

Resource/Student Kitchen – This multifunctional area is staffed by qualified Tutors. Our fully equipped home-from-home kitchen is where our students learn basic life skills from washing, healthy living to cooking. Our students learn the importance of a healthy diet and are taught how to cook and bake simple recipes. As well as the kitchen area the resource room is used as a clean space to create bespoke textiles and crafts.

The Hidden Gem Café – At the heart of our charity is the award-winning Hidden Gem Café serving delicious food and operated by the support of our students. In the café our students are taught to serve tea and coffee, clear tables and interact with our many customers. Our students also work alongside our chefs learning basic food hygiene and food preparation.

KREATE – The new premises serves multiple purposes:

- Ground floor: A retail outlet showcasing and selling a variety of handmade crafts produced by our talented students. This shop not only offers the chance for them to gain valuable retail and customer service experience but also serves as a platform to celebrate their creativity and skills with the wider community.

- Second floor: Offers a range of craft activities such as printing, card making, resin and one major project which is the Jesmonite workshop, this gives our learners the chance to develop new skills in crafting versatile products like coasters, plates, candle holders, and ornaments. This craft is accessible to all learners, regardless of disability, and provides an excellent opportunity for creative expression.

- Third floor: Homes our state-of-the-art media room where our students create podcast/video projects. The media room is run by two experienced industry filmmakers. Our students create a variety of multimedia projects including podcasts and fun, engaging videos. Students take part in every stage of the process not only to learn exciting digital skills but also have a platform to share their stories and have a voice. You can find all our completed projects on our youtube channel: www.youtube.com/@workLTD. The third floor also offers office space for our staff, providing a central hub for administration and operations to ensure the smooth running of our expanding charity.

- Basement: Pending funding, this area has the potential to become a fully equipped space for housing craft equipment, woodwork, and other hands-on activities. This would further enhance the range of creative and vocational opportunities available to our students. It is currently being used for storage and as a stock room for our home and giftware items.

- Kreate Home & Giftware Store – Our ever-evolving selection of home and giftware is designed to delight and inspire, offering everything you need to spoil your loved ones, or treat yourself. The collections include stunning handpicked items alongside a range of unique crafts lovingly designed and made by our talented students. These one-of-a-kind creations showcase the creativity and hard work of our learners, giving every purchase a personal and heartfelt touch. Kreate also offers invaluable opportunity to gain hands on experience in a retail environment. They develop practical skills by interacting with customers, processing transactions at the till, stocking shelves and managing the shop floor. These real-world experiences help build their confidence and enhance communication skills.

Training and Support Projects

WORK Ltd continues to provide intensive, person-centred training programmes. These include healthy eating, food preparation, catering, woodwork and horticulture. Creative crafts, such as knitting, sewing, art, training in music, drama, dance, exercise, personal expression, literacy and reading skills, form important aspects of our development programmes. We have qualified teachers employed as our Tutors.

The quality of goods produced by our students are exceptional however we still purchase retail goods from outside suppliers which compliments what is made on site by our students.

In addition, WORK Ltd provides ongoing training and advocacy skills to enable students to identify what they would like to achieve and need to achieve, giving student’s fulfilment in their learning and development. Staff provide support on a wide range of issues from relationships to bereavement. Mechanisms are in place to refer to specialised professionals if required.

Individual practical support is given to carers to enable them to have access to relevant information, service and advice

Achievements and performance

WORK Ltd made significant progress in advancing its charitable objectives of supporting young adults with special needs through education, skills development, and community engagement. A key highlight of the year was the successful delivery of an international educational exchange programme, marking an important milestone in the organisation’s development.

WORK Ltd established its first international partnership with Sakura Nada Special School in Japan. This collaboration was facilitated through connections developed by a former student and led by the organisation’s centre management team. The initiative reflects WORK Ltd’s commitment to broadening opportunities for its beneficiaries and enhancing the quality of its provision through global engagement.

The exchange programme enabled both staff and students to participate in a structured programme of educational and cultural activities. This included professional workshops, classroom observations, and collaborative discussions focused on special educational needs practices, vocational training, and social inclusion.

The programme provided participating students, many of whom had not previously travelled abroad with a unique opportunity for personal development.

- Improved confidence, independence, and self-esteem among students

- Increased cultural awareness and understanding of global communities

- Enhanced social interaction skills through engagement with peers in an international setting

These outcomes align closely with the charity’s mission to support individuals in leading more independent and fulfilling lives.

The exchange facilitated valuable professional development for staff, who gained insight into alternative approaches to special needs education. Areas of learning included:

- Innovative methods for classroom engagement

- Approaches to vocational and life-skills training

The programme supported the development of meaningful peer relationships, both through reconnecting with former students and establishing new international friendships.

This initiative has laid the foundation for a long-term international partnership, with the potential for ongoing collaboration, future exchanges, and shared learning.

The experience and knowledge gained from the programme are expected to benefit the wider community in Sheffield. WORK Ltd intends to share learning with parents, professionals, and partner organisations, contributing to improved awareness and practice within the special needs education sector.

Financial review

The results for the year ended 31 December 2025 shows a surplus of £87,498 after charging depreciation of £33,372.

The total income for the year of £1,517,487 is a 12% increase on the previous year. Donations and fund-raising activities were £88,397 (2024 - £81,797) and café and shop sales have increased to £637,738 (2024 - £617,539).

Support costs totalled £432,629 compared to £420,581 in the previous year.

The forecast for the current year is again that there will continue to be sufficient income to meet all costs but without sufficient ability to invest in future developments.

WORK Ltd Reserves

The Trustees and management team seek to keep an appropriate level of unrestricted funds to cover known commitments and also ensure the charity remains a going concern. We have assessed the risks to the charity’s ongoing income and the level of funds required has been determined taking into account the current economic climate and local and national government policies, etc. Historically the level has been assessed as around 4-months of the current rate of expenditure. Even at this level, the charity may face difficulties in seeking to replace any lost income over this relatively short period of time. The Trustees and management team are committed to review this approach during 2026 and will make changes if deemed required.

At this financial year end the unrestricted funds were £654,574, which equates to 5-months of charitable expenditure. The Trustees and management team decided that the historical ‘asset replacement fund’ was no longer necessary and this has now been transferred back into unrestricted funds.

The Trustees and management team have agreed upon the most significant risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that effective systems and controls are in place to mitigate these risks. The significant risks and corresponding controls are reviewed throughout the year, mainly during quarterly Trustees’ meetings.”

Plans for the Future

The Trustees and Centre Managers have put in place a number of incentives to enable successful achievement of the organisations aims and objectives, over the next 3-5 years. These include:

Hidden Gem Cafe: Our short-term objective is to complete the extension of the café’s external boundary, creating a larger and more inviting outdoor seating area. This development will accommodate an additional 35 customers, significantly increasing our capacity and enhancing the overall customer experience.

As part of this improvement, the existing outdoor courtyard will be upgraded with the installation of an extended roof canopy, providing better shelter and year-round usability. The space will also be refreshed with new, high-quality tables and chairs to create a comfortable and attractive environment for our guests.

In addition to these physical enhancements, The Hidden Gem aims to expand its service offering by introducing an outside catering service. We plan to develop bespoke catering packages tailored to a variety of events and customer needs, allowing us to reach a broader audience beyond the café itself.

Furthermore, we intend to make use of our log cabin during daytime hours by offering it as a dedicated space for meetings and small gatherings. This will include the provision of refreshments and lunch options, creating a convenient and welcoming setting for business or community use.

Workshop and Resource: In the short term, our aim is to enhance our existing curriculum by introducing advanced woodworking. This programme will build on the foundational skills our students already develop, enabling them to design, create, and market high-quality, bespoke products, while further supporting creativity, confidence, and employability.

Looking ahead, we recognise the importance of maintaining a consistent intake of new students each year, particularly as the academic year comes to an end. To support this, we plan to host regular open evenings and community fun days, strengthening relationships with key referral agencies while also engaging directly with prospective students and their families. Alongside these events, we are developing a “Day in the Life at WORK Ltd” video, created by our students in collaboration with the Multimedia Tutor at our Kreate site. This film will provide an authentic, behind-the-scenes insight into our provision, showcasing students in action and including staff-led guidance to address common questions from families and professionals. Once completed, it will be shared across our social media platforms, featured on our website, and distributed to schools, colleges, and the local authority. We believe this will become a valuable resource, offering a clear and engaging representation of the supportive, skills-based environment we provide.

A key medium-term priority for the charity is the redevelopment of our student cooking area. Practical cooking sessions play a vital role in our programme, helping students to build independence while learning about healthy eating. We currently deliver cooking classes five days a week; however, growing demand has resulted in an overcrowded environment, highlighting the need for improvement. The proposed redevelopment will create a more functional and accessible layout, allowing each student to benefit from their own dedicated cooking space. This project will be externally funded, with the intention of commencing in 2027.

Our long-term ambition is to redevelop the current workshop by replacing the existing single-storey building with a modern, environmentally sustainable facility. Planned to begin between 2027 and 2028, this development will provide a purpose-built space better suited to the needs of both students and staff. The new building will include a fully equipped classroom and workshop, a quiet and sensory area, a designated dining space, and appropriate office facilities to support the effective operation of the charity.

Demand for our services from adults with learning disabilities across the city continues to increase, placing growing pressure on our existing resources. It is therefore essential that we secure additional external funding to deliver these developments. This investment will enable the Trustees and Centre Managers to strengthen and expand our provision, ensuring we can continue to respond to evolving needs. Ultimately, this work is critical to maintaining a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment for some of the most vulnerable members of our community.

To support these ambitions, we are actively pursuing a range of funding opportunities. This includes applying for larger, targeted grants, as well as increasing income through community fundraising initiatives. These include our “Become a Friend of WORK” monthly donation scheme, pop-up shops, fundraising concerts, partnerships through company “charity of the year” programmes, and promoting one-off donations via our JustGiving page through the Hidden Gem Café. Together, these efforts are focused on securing the sustainable funding required to deliver our future plans.

Qualified opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Worthwhile Occupational & Recreational Krafts Limited (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 31 December 2025 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion, except for the possible effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section of our report, the financial statements:

-

give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 December 2025 and of its for the year then ended;

-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-

have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

Basis for qualified opinion

We were appointed auditors following the year ended 31 December 2023 when the company needed an audit for the first time. The opening balance sheet had not been audited and we were unable to carry out procedures to audit the opening balance sheet. therefore are unable to determine whether any adjustments to the Statement of financial activities might have been necessary in the prior period. Our audit opinion in the financial statements to 31 December 2023 and 31 December 2024 was modified accordingly. Our audit opinion on the current year financial statements is also modified because of the possible effect of this matter on the comparative figures. In addition, were any adjustment to the Statement of Financial Activities required, the Trustees report would also need to be amended.

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In respect solely of the limitation on our work relating to opening balances described above:

-
we have not obtained all the information and explanations that we considered necessary for the purpose of our audit; and
-

we were unable to determine whether sufficient accounting records had been kept.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

-

the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the trustees' r eport; or

-

the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records.

-

the trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies' exemptions in preparing the trustees' report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report.

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the s tatement of trustees' r esponsibilities, the trustees, who are also the directors of the charity for the purpose of company law, are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud and the audit response

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

We have assessed the overall susceptibility of the financial statements to material misstatement due to irregularities as low.

Our approach at the planning stage which contributed to designing procedures included:

- identifying laws and regulations at the planning stage that were significant to the entity and that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements from our general knowledge along with our client and sector specific experience

- enquires of management as to whether they had any knowledge of any actual or suspected fraud

- considering the controls in place to mitigate the risk of irregularities, including fraud.

- communicating identified laws and regulations to the audit team

- ensuring the audit team had recent, relevant experience and were aware of the significant laws and regulations relating to the entity and it’s sector along with the competence

WORTHWHILE OCCUPATIONAL & RECREATIONAL KRAFTS LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
TO THE TRUSTEES OF WORTHWHILE OCCUPATIONAL & RECREATIONAL KRAFTS LIMITED
- 10 -

The significant laws and regulations directly affecting the financial statements where the consequences of non-compliance could have a material effect on amounts or disclosures in the financial statements included: The Charities Act and related regulations, The Care Act 2014, The Mental Capacity Act 2005, The Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), The Companies Act 2006 as well as other operational laws and regulations.

In response to the risks our approach included but was not limited to:

- reviewing charities commissions data and agreeing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

- reviewing financial statement disclosures and agreeing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

- performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships.

- reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.

- reviewing legal and professional costs for any indication of non-compliance with laws and regulations.

- discussions with those charged with governance regarding any breaches of laws and regulations.

In relation to how the risk of management override of controls was addressed, our approach included but was not limited to:

- assessing whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias

- investigating rationale of significant or unusual transactions and agreeing to underlying records

- reviewing related parties and transactions with them to ensure these were not outside the normal course of business

- enquiring with management as to whether they had any knowledge of any actual or suspected fraud

- reviewing of all material journal entries made throughout the year as well as those made to prepare the financial statements

- enquiries with those charged with governance regarding laws and regulations to any known breaches.

Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. Furthermore, as with all audits, there is a higher risk of irregularities (especially those relating to fraud) being undetected, as these may involve the override of internal controls, collusion, intentional omissions and misrepresentations etc. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance or fraud and therefore cannot be expected to detect all instances of such. Our audit was not designed to identify misstatements or other irregularities that would not be considered to be material to the financial statements. The further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Accounting policies
Charity information

Worthwhile Occupational & Recreational Krafts Limited is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Off Folkwood Grove, Ringinglow Road, Sheffield, S11 7TB.

1.1
Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" (effective 1 January 2019). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary a mounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

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

1.2
Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3
Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Designated funds comprise funds which have been set aside at the discretion of the trustees for specific purposes.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund.

1.4
Incoming resources

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount.

Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Income from government and other grants, whether capital grants or revenue grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and it not deferred.

1.5
Resources expended

All expenditure is accounted for on an accrual basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category.

Accounting policies
(Continued)

1.6
Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Leasehold land and buildings
4% straight line
Plant and equipment
15% reducing balance
Fixtures and fittings
25% reducing balance
1.7
Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell.

Cost is calculated using the first in, first out formula.

1.8
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand.

1.9
Financial instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

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

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans 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 receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

1.10
Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
