preparing financial statements which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company as at the end of each financial year and of its profit or loss for each financial year in accordance with the requirements of Sections 394 and 395 and which otherwise comply with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 relating to financial statements, so far as applicable to the company.

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The directors believe it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis as the company will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and is anticipated to return profits in future years. In the meantime the company will be financially supported by its parent company, which is a charity. In order to protect the interests of the charity, one of the directors has provided a personal guarantee to the company and further funding is supplied by one of the directors when required.
