Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its financial activities for that period. In preparing those financial statements the trustees are required to:
-
a) select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently. b) observe the methods and principles in the applicable Charities SORP; c) make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent d) state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
e) prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the charity will continue its business.
The trustees are responsible for the keeping of proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provisions of the Declaration of Trust.
