## Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 31 October 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

  The organisation's turnover will be generated through activities that support its charitable and community objectives while ensuring the long-term financial sustainability of the project. All income will be reinvested into the management, maintenance, and development of the orchard, surrounding land, biodiversity initiatives, and community programmes. Sources of turnover may include: The sale of orchard produce, including fresh fruit, juices, preserves, and other value-added products. Income from renewable energy generation, including electricity exported to the grid where applicable. Educational visits, workshops, training courses, and environmental learning programmes. Venue and land hire for appropriate community events and activities. Contract land management, conservation, and habitat restoration services. Grants, donations, sponsorship, and community fundraising activities. Membership subscriptions and volunteer support schemes where applicable. The organisation aims to maintain a diverse range of income streams to reduce reliance on any single source of funding and to provide long-term financial resilience. Annual turnover will be monitored by the Board of Directors and reviewed against the organisation's strategic objectives. Financial performance will be assessed regularly to ensure sufficient resources are available for ongoing maintenance, environmental improvements, staff and volunteer support, and future investment in community facilities and renewable energy infrastructure. Any operating surplus generated will not be distributed for private gain but will be reinvested into delivering the organisation's objectives, including: Improving biodiversity and habitat management. Expanding community access to green space. Maintaining and developing renewable energy systems. Supporting environmental education and volunteering opportunities. Enhancing facilities and infrastructure for community use. Building financial reserves to ensure the long-term sustainability of the project. The organisation is committed to transparent financial management and will prepare annual accounts in accordance with applicable accounting standards and legal requirements. The turnover policy will be reviewed annually by the Board to ensure it continues to support the organisation's mission and financial sustainability.

  Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

  Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset into working condition for its intended use. Depreciation is provided to write off the cost of tangible fixed assets, less their estimated residual values, over their expected useful economic lives using the straight-line method at the following annual rates: Freehold buildings – 2% per annum. Leasehold property improvements – over the remaining term of the lease. Plant and machinery – 10%–20% per annum. Vehicles – 20%–25% per annum. Renewable energy equipment (including solar panels and associated infrastructure) – 5%–10% per annum. Fixtures, fittings and equipment – 15%–25% per annum. Office equipment and computers – 25%–33% per annum. Land is not depreciated as it is considered to have an indefinite useful economic life. The assets' residual values, useful economic lives, and depreciation methods are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted prospectively where appropriate. Assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting date. Where there is evidence that the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the Statement of Financial Activities or Profit and Loss Account. Gains and losses arising on the disposal of tangible fixed assets are determined by comparing the disposal proceeds with the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the accounting period in which the disposal occurs.

  Intangible fixed assets amortisation policy

  The organisation capitalises purchased intangible assets where they meet the recognition criteria of FRS 102. Intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment. Amortisation is provided on a straight-line basis over the assets' estimated useful economic lives. Where the organisation does not hold any intangible fixed assets during the financial year, no amortisation charge is recognised.

  Valuation information and policy

  Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost unless otherwise required by the applicable financial reporting standard. Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Land is carried at cost and is not depreciated. Where there is evidence that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable, the asset is reviewed for impairment and written down to its recoverable amount where appropriate. Stocks, where applicable, are valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Debtors are recognised at the amount expected to be recovered after making appropriate provisions for doubtful debts. Cash and cash equivalents are measured at face value. Creditors are recognised at the settlement amount due. The directors review the carrying values of assets and liabilities at each reporting date to ensure that they are not materially different from their fair value where applicable and that appropriate provisions have been made for impairment or other reductions in value.
