The Regulator for Charities in England and Wales
The Charities' Online Accounts Awards recognise excellence in financial reporting and encourage best practice in online financial accounts.
The winners in 2009 – chosen from charities across the UK – include The British Heart Foundation, The British Library, Charity Finance Directors’ Group, Cecily’s Fund and Mexborough & Swinton Astronomical Society. The winners cover all sizes of charity and may be helpful in providing ideas as to the approaches and formats that can be adopted and how particular transactions may be disclosed.
The winners include two examples of receipts and payments accounts. The examples should not be used as a substitute for SORP 2005 as it is important that the SORP’s recommendations are applied to the specific activities and transactions of a particular charity.
