TRUSTEES' REPORT
for the year ended 31 December 2022

The Trustees present their annual report together with the audited financial statements of the Company for the  1 January 2022 to 31 December 2022The Annual report serves the purposes of both a Trustees' report and a directors' report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the Annual report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019). 
 

Since the Company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the Strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 is not required and has been omitted.
 

Objectives and activities
 

a. Policies and objectives
 

The principal objects of the charity, as defined in its Articles of Association, are as follows:-
the relief of those in need by reason of age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage;
 
the provision of recreational facilities, and the organisation of recreational activities, with the object of improving the conditions of life for the persons for whom the facilities and activities are primarily intended;
the advancement of community development, for the benefit of the residents of the City of Dundee and the geographical territory of the Diocese of Dunkeld, and any other individuals in need as the Trustees shall so determine;
to promote such similar charitable purposes, objects or institutions in such proportions and manner as the Trustees shall think fit.
 

b. Activities undertaken to achieve objectives
 

The activities of the charity commenced on 6 November 2020 when the regulatory transfer was effected and the operation of the residential care facility of the member organization, St Mary’s Care Home, moved under the ownership of this charitable company.
 

Achievements and performance
 

a. Key performance indicators
 

The charitable company facilitates residential care for 28 elderly people who are cared for by a team of professional carers. No changes were made to the Management of the Home at transfer, nor the Management Committee who now reports to the Trustees of the charitable company.
KPIs are occupancy, EBITDARM, property costs per bed, food costs per income as a percentage.  Further KPIs will be implemented during the course of the next 12 months to monitor other areas of the Home which affect financial performance.

DUNKELD CARE LTD
 
Achievements and performance (continued)

b. Review of activities
 

During 2022, the Home has faced a challenging time due to Covid-19 continuing to affect staffing levels.  Steps were taken to support residents and ensure a return to a more normal way of home life. 
Staff levels were maintained at all times.  This period of transition back to normal will last for as long as it takes.   Like so many businesses, it continues to be affected for the longer term.
The Home saw residents’ occupancy remain at pre pandemic levels.  A core of committed staff enabled continuity of care within the home which is visibly assisting a return to normal life.
The Directors recognize the effort and commitment of all staff within St Mary’s Care Home during another period of great stress.
The Dementia garden remains a wonderful addition to the grounds and provided comfort again during the year.
 

c. Investment policy and performance
 

The investment policy, in order of priority will be: preserving capital; maintaining adequate liquidity; and generating yield.
 

Financial review
 

a. Going concern
 

After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.
 

b. Reserves policy
 

The Trustees have reviewed and updated the charity’s reserves policy, to more explicitly articulate the links between the policy and the charity’s key risks and strategic objectives. 
In doing so, Dunkeld Care Ltd differentiates between short, medium and long-term risks as follows: 
 
1. Short term: meeting working capital requirements and mitigating unbudgeted, in-year financial risks. In the charity company’s case, examples might be occupancy downturn for a short period of time, or paying for interim cover for key personnel. 
 
Reserves held to mitigate these short-term risks must be held as cash or short-term deposits to allow immediate access as needed. 
 
2. Medium term: mitigating the financial impact of changes foreseen over the next 1-3 year planning cycle, allowing sufficient time for the charity to develop to meet these challenges whilst minimising the impact of any required changes. Examples include managing the impact of upgrading of residential rooms within the Home. 
Reserves held to mitigate these medium-term risks can be held as long-term cash deposits, or in investment funds, as their drawdown can be planned over a longer period of time. 
 
3. Long term: ensuring the charity can invest in planned renewal of infrastructure and intellectual property, so that its assets do not become outdated over time. This would include investment in property, IT and digital assets, and in professional development of staff. 
 
Reserves held to mitigate these long-term risks would be designated by the board of Trustees, against an agreed investment plan. Trustees will expect the charity to build these reserves back up over time to support ongoing investment.

DUNKELD CARE LTD
 
Financial review (continued)

The total reserves of Dunkeld Care Ltd at the end of 2022 amount to £646,151 (2021 - £580,852) consisting of £622,744 (2021 - £564,911) unrestricted funds and £23,407 (2021 - £15,941) restricted funds.
Unrestricted funds are £622,744 (2021 - £564,911) however after deducting fixed assets of £55,455 (2021 - £63,800) the net balance is £567,289 (2021 - £501,111).  There are no designated funds but approximately £40,000 has been earmarked by the Management Committee for the refurbishment of rooms to increase the number of en-suite rooms available in the Home.
The charitable company holds free reserves then at the end of the year of £527,289 (2021 - £461,111). These reserves meet the requirements of the short and medium term reserve objectives. The Directors are reviewing means in which to attain the long term reserves policy. 
 

Structure, governance and management
 

a. Constitution
 

Dunkeld Care Ltd is a recognised charity in Scotland and is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee, set up by a Memorandum of Association on 26/07/2017. The company number is SC572109.
Dunkeld Care Ltd, a recognised charity in Scotland, is constituted under a Memorandum of Association dated 26/07/2017 and is a registered charity number SC047641.
The Roman Catholic Diocese of Dunkeld transferred the Care Home activity, under a Deed of Transfer to the charitable company, Dunkeld Care Ltd, incorporated under a Memorandum of Association, which established its objectives and powers and is governed under its Articles of Association. In the event of the company being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1.
 

b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees
 

The Roman Catholic Diocese of Dunkeld, as the subscriber to the Articles of Association, is the sole Member of the charity company and the Member's Corporate Trustee Company are responsible for nominating and appointing the Trustees of Dunkeld Care Ltd.
The minimum number of Trustees shall be three of whom one at least must be resident in Scotland. The maximum number of Trustees shall be five.
The Trustees will normally serve for a maximum period of 4 years from the date of their appointment by the Member but the intention is to introduce a rolling resignation and replacement (or reselection) policy.
No Trustee receives remuneration and only reasonable expenses can be reimbursed to a Trustee. Staff remuneration will be set to achieve a balance between fair pay to attract and keep appropriately qualified staff to lead, manage and support or deliver the aims of the charity.
 

Page 4

 
DUNKELD CARE LTD
 
Structure, governance and management (continued)

c. Organisational structure and decision-making policies
 

The Trustees will meet at least quarterly and operate on an autonomous basis in relation to their charitable company responsibilities. The Chair of the Trustees will provide a progress report to the Member organisation as a standing agenda item at Dunkeld Diocesan Finance Committee meetings.
The employment contracts for any dedicated staff that are currently employed in servicing the existing eligible assets (i.e. those that were transferred to the charity company) were transferred across to the charity company to comply with UK employment regulations. Some support services will be provided by the Member organisation's staff as a shared central service.
Induction on appointment will be provided to the Trustees and updated throughout their tenure either via online courses or face to face trustee training provided by Catholic Insurance Services Ltd. 
Day to day decision making in the running of the Home and its staff is taken by the Home Manager with support from the Management Committee who meet on a quarterly basis.  
Decisions about remuneration are taken with reference to the Scottish Care Model and approved by the Directors of the charity.  Management remuneration is set by the Directors. All remuneration is reviewed annually.
 

d. Related party relationships
 

The Roman Catholic Diocese of Dunkeld is a related party and connected charity as it is the sole Member of the charitable company.
 

e. Risk management
 

The Trustees review the major risks to which the charity company will be exposed on a regular basis - and  includes those previously identified by the Member organisation - in particular those related to the operations and finances of the charity company in order to be satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate the charity company's exposure to these major risks.
 

Plans for future periods
 

The intention is to extend the remaining non ensuite rooms to provide those residents their personal facilities. 2022 saw the completion of refurbishment of a further 2 rooms to ensuite and these were quickly occupied.  2023 will not see any more major interior works to allow the residents some calm within their home.
It remains the intention of the trustees to continue to focus on this activity and for it to act as a catalyst to support a wider social "community hub" initiative that would be open to local residents in the Dundee area and would seek to involve all age groups in promoting both a community spirit and the enhancement of general wellbeing with respect for the elderly a key objective.
It may be that the charity company will provide additional assisted living accommodation in the future.
 

Member's liability
 

The Member of the Company guarantees to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 to the assets of the Company in the event of winding up.

Statement of Trustees' responsibilities
 

The Trustees (who are also the directors of the Company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).


Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law, the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in business.


The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.


Disclosure of information to auditors

so far as that Trustee is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the charity's auditors are unaware, and
that Trustee has taken all the steps that ought to have been taken as a Trustee in order to be aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the charity's auditors are aware of that information.
 

Auditors
 

The auditorsEQ Accountants LLPhave indicated their willingness to continue in office. The designated Trustees will propose a motion reappointing the auditors at a meeting of the Trustees.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBER OF DUNKELD CARE LTD
 

Opinion


We have audited the financial statements of Dunkeld Care Ltd (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 December 2022 which comprise the Statement of financial activities (incorporating the Income and Expenditure account), the Balance sheet, the Statement of cash flows and the related notes, including a summary of 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 the financial statements:

give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 December 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure 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, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and regulation 8 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006.


Basis for opinion


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 Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard, and the provisions available for small entities, in the circumstances set out in note 24 to the financial statements, 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 opinion.


Conclusions relating to going concern


In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees' (who are also the directors of the company for company law purposes) 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 charitable company'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 Auditors' report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual reportOur opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, 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.


Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
 

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

the information given in the directors' report, prepared for the purposes of company law and included within the trustees' annual report, for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
the directors' report, included within the trustees' annual report, has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.


Matters on which we are required to report by exception


In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors' report, included within the trustees' annual report..


We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which Companies Act 2006, the Charities and Trustees Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:

adequate and proper accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
certain disclosures of Trustees' (who are also the directors of the company for company law purposes) remuneration specified by law are not made; or
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
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 directors' report, included within the trustees' annual report and from the requirement to prepare a Strategic report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBER OF DUNKELD CARE LTD (CONTINUED)


Responsibilities of trustees


As explained more fully in the Trustees' responsibilities statement, the Trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes 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 charitable company'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.
 

Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements


We have been appointed as auditor under section 44(1)(c) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and under the Companies Act 2006 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 Auditors' 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.


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 gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the charitable company and the care home industry in which it operates, and considered the risk of acts by the charitable company which were contrary to applicable laws and regulations, including fraud.  We designed audit procedures to respond to the risk, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.
We focused on laws and regulations which could give rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements, including, but not limited to, the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and UK tax legislation.  Our tests included agreeing the financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation and enquiries with management. As in all our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including testing journals and evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the directors that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.


Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance.  The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.


A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' report.

Use of our report
 

This report is made solely to the charitable company's member in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006, and to the charitable company's trustees, as a body, in accordance with regulation 10 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's member and Trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an Auditors' 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 charitable company, its member and its trustees, as a body for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the year ended 31 December 2022

1.


General information

Dunkeld Care Ltd is a private company limited by guarantee without share capital, incorporated in Scotland with registration number SC572109 and registered with OSCR as a charity with registration number SC047641.
The registered address is Curial Offices, 24-28 Lawside Road, Dundee, DD3 6XY.
These accounts are presented in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company, rounded to the nearest £.


2.Accounting policies

  
2.1

Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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 Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

Dunkeld Care Ltd meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.

  
2.2

Going concern

The trustees have reviewed the financial position of the charity and are satisfied that the company will continue to trade for the foreseeable future.  Accordingly, the accounts are prepared on the going concern basis.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the year ended 31 December 2022

2.Accounting policies (continued)

  
2.3

Income

All income is recognised once the Company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

Income from charitable activities is rderived from charges for care and support which are recognised when the charitable company has delivered the relevant services and is therefore entitled to the resource, receipt is probable and the income can be reliably measured.

Grants are included in the Statement of financial activities on a receivable basis. The balance of income received for specific purposes but not expended during the period is shown in the relevant funds on the Balance sheet. Where income is received in advance of entitlement of receipt, its recognition is deferred and included in creditors as deferred income. Where entitlement occurs before income is received, the income is accrued.

Where the donated good is a fixed asset, it is measured at fair value, unless it is impractical to measure this reliably, in which case the net book value of the item recorded by the donor at the point of disposal is used. The gain is recognised as income from donations and a corresponding amount is included in the appropriate fixed asset class and depreciated over the useful economic life in accordance with the Company's accounting policies.

On receipt, donated professional services and facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the Company which is the amount it would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.

  
2.4

Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.

Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitment, but not accrued as expenditure.

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

  
2.5

Government grants

Government grants are included in the Statement of financial activities on a receivable basis. The balance of income received for specific purposes but not expended during the period is shown in the relevant funds on the Balance sheet. Where income is received in advance of entitlement of receipt, its recognition is deferred and included in creditors as deferred income. Where entitlement occurs before income is received, the income is accrued.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the year ended 31 December 2022

2.Accounting policies (continued)

  
2.6

Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Company; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.

 
2.7

Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets costing £500 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably. 

Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, on a reducing balance basis.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Motor vehicles
-
25%
Fixtures, fittings and furnishings
-
15%
Computer equipment
-
15%

  
2.8

Investments

Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the Balance sheet date, unless the value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and presented as ‘Gains/(Losses) on investments’ in the Statement of financial activities.

  
2.9

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

  
2.10

Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.


2.11

Liabilities and provisions

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the year ended 31 December 2022

2.Accounting policies (continued)

  
2.12

Financial instruments

The Company only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

  
2.13

Pensions

The Company operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension costs represent the employer contributions payable by the Company to the fund in respect of the year.

  
2.14

Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Company and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Company for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
