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

    Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services. Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have transferred to the buyer. Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs.

    Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

    Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulative depreciation and any accumulative impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life, as follows: Office equipment - over 3 years Fixtures, fittings, tools and equipment - over 3 years

    Other accounting policies

    Debtors: Short term debtors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price), less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Loans and other financial assets are initially recognised at transaction price including any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Creditors: Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method. Taxation: A current tax liability is recognised for the tax payable on the taxable profit of the current and past periods. A current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to recover tax paid in a previous period. Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference, except for revalued land and investment property where the tax rate that applies to the sale of the asset is used. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted. Pensions: Contributions to defined contribution plans are expensed in the period to which they relate.

Company activities and impact

Kids of Colour CIC is an anti-racist youth work organisation, committed to racial justice for young people of colour in Greater Manchester. We create spaces for young people of colour in Greater Manchester aged 25 and under to explore their race, identity, and culture, and to feel supported, validated and celebrated. In the last financial year, we have continued to run our regular youth spaces for 13-19 year olds and 19-25 year olds; held one-off events that raise public awareness on injustice or bring young people joy; run our Boys and Love project with boys across Manchester; distributed free books to young people in our communities; supported families with advocacy cases, in particularly supporting families to success in the Royal Courts of Justice; as well as provided voluntary and employed opportunities for young people from our communities.

Consultation with stakeholders

The companies’ stakeholders are first and foremost community members of Greater Manchester, with particular focus on young people of colour and their parents/guardians. The director of the company, and its staff, have lived in Manchester either all their lives or for a number of years and have developed our work based on the needs and wants that have been arising for communities we live in. We have a continual dialogue with those we support, particularly in regard to advocacy work, which sees our staff in continual communication with those in need to see if they require any more support or signposting. In terms of our youth sessions, these are guided by our young people, and often change and adapt based on what they bring up or need to explore, so we are in a continual feedback loop. Our community campaigns only exist in response to issues brought to us by community. If there are recommendations to better our practice, then we work to implement those within our work as well as recognising and solidifying the good practice highlighted.
