Risk factors

The trustees have reviewed the risk to the assets of the charity and they consider the adequate controls are in place.

Trustees' responsibilities

The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' report, the receipts and payments account and the statement of assets and liabilities in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare annual accounts. Under that law the trustees have elected to prepare a receipts and payments account and a statement of assets and liabilities. The trustees must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they properly represent the receipts and payments for the year and the assets and liabilities of the charity.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the assets and liabilities of the charity and enable them to ensure that the account and statement can be properly drawn up in accordance with the Charities Act 2011, and the provisions of the charity's governing document. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
