Volunteers:
Volunteers are essential in all asperts of the charitvs work. The volunteers who in recent years gave
their time regularly to AUKDD enable it to operate, raise funds, administer and govem the tharity. In
2024125 we have experienced issues with the loss of older volunteers and a rnudFredu￿d volume of new
volunteers. We are not alone, rrK>st tharitie5 report redU￿d numbers of volunteers. and we antlcipate
rising prices and farnily care continuing to impact on volunteer capaclty. Thts year volunteers contril>uted
in-kind to the or8anisation wth the donation of approximately 20.8cKI hours. Our shops used approximatefy
96 hours of volunteer time per week on avera8e lyrt these average disguises significant variance between
shops. AUKDD governance relies on 6+ trustees and occasional speaalist support of approximately 280
hours per annum {based on attendan￿ at 10 meetings per year and preparation time). The monetsry ￿lue
of their skills is hard to find a compari50n for but using an average hourly rdte of £25.lJ) the T￿Stee5 gNe
AUKDD £7,(KIO per annum. This year again our Trustees gave muth more by monitoring regutsrly and being
on hand to respond with email decisions and zoom meetings to give our CEO timely support. Recrultlng and
retslnln8 suffident volunteers is a sugnificant challenge because the requirements of many roles has become
more demanding as legislation, r￿k a￿ent and our dients, needs become more complex. Volunteer
recruitment and retention is an identified risk in ¢yJr Risk Mana8ement process and a priority for most
service leads. However, we continue to have an e￿ptIonal level of continuous long service from our
volunteers and volunteers fuffilling high level roles.

Conclu￿on5 relatlng to golng concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees, use of the golng concern basis of accounting
in the preparation of the financial ststements 15 appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material Un￿rtaIntieS relating to events or
conditions that, Indlvldually or collertlvelyi may cast significant doubt on the charitsble company's ability to Ct)ntinue
as a 80in8 concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

to report in this regard.
Oplnlons on other matters prescrlbed by the Companles A¢t 2006
