Compliance with accounting standards
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of FRS 102 Section 1A Small Entities. There were no material departures from that standard.
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below and have remained unchanged from the previous year, and also have been consistently applied within the same accounts.
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain fixed assets.
The accounts are presented in £ sterling.
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.
Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date.
Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.
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.
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 rendering of services. Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the revenue can be reliably measured.
Investments in shares are measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognised in the income statement. Deferred taxation is provided on these gains at the rate expected to apply when the investments are sold.
The company is exempted from the requirement to prepare a cash flow statement (in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard No. 1) on the basis of its being a small company as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

Notes to the Accounts
for the year ended 31 December 2020
The company is not registered for Value Added Tax. All expenditure pertaining to the company is stated inclusive of Value Added Tax.
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.
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
Provisions (ie) liabilities of uncertain timing or amount are recognised when there is an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that economic benefit will be transferred to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours
Acquisition and disposals of investments
Acquisitions and disposals are considered to have taken place at the date of legal completion and are included in the accounts accordingly.
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected the wider macro economy. It is possible that income will decline due to further lockdowns as it has impacted these accounts. These risks are beyond the control of the company and represent uncertainty as to revenue and asset values for the forthcoming 12 months.
However, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future after taking into account all known factors including the present impact of COVID-19 and thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the accounts.
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the company's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying value of assets assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates,
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revisions affects both current and future periods.
On 11th March 2020 the World Health Organisation declared the coronavirus (COVID-19) a worldwide pandemic. There are no comparable recent events which may provide guidance as to the effects of the pandemic and the ultimate impact of COVID-19 is uncertain.
