NOTES TO HALF YEARLY REPORT

For the six months ended 30 September 2023

(Unaudited)

1.       Summary of significant accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with applicable United Kingdom law and accounting standards.

Going concern

The directors consider that the Company has adequate resources, an appropriate financial structure and suitable arrangements in place for it to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and therefore believe it appropriate for the financial statements to be prepared on the going concern basis.

Income recognition

The Company's principal source of income is interest receivable. The directors consider it would be misleading to classify this source as turnover. All income derives from the Company's principal activity, wholly within the UK.

Interest receivable and payable is accounted for on an accruals basis.

Directors' responsibility statement

We confirm that to the best of our knowledge:

·      the condensed set of financial statements, which has been prepared in accordance with FRS104 "Interim Financial Reporting", gives a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit of the Company.

·      the half yearly report includes a fair review of the information required by:

(a)   DTR 4.2.7R of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules, being an indication of important events that have occurred during the first six months of the financial year and their impact on the condensed set of financial statements; and a description of the principal risks and uncertainties for the remaining six months of the year; and

(b)   DTR 4.2.8R of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules, being related party transactions that have taken place in the first six months of the current financial year and that have materially affected the financial position or performance of the entity during that period.
