REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF

VOLUNTARY SERVICE
```

## **`Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements`** 

```
Ourobjectivesaretoobtainreasonableassuranceaboutwhetherthefinancialstatementsasawholearefree from
materialmisstatement,whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the IndependentAuditorsthat includes
ouropinion.Reasonableassuranceisahighlevelofassurance,butisnotaguaranteethatanauditconducted in

fraudorerrorandareconsideredmaterialif,individuallyorintheaggregate,theycouldreasonablybeexpected to
influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
```

```
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
```

```
As part of our planning process:
```

```
- We enquired of management the systems and controls the company has in place, the areas of the financial
statements that are mostly susceptible to the risk of irregularities and fraud, and whether there was any known,
suspected or alleged fraud.
```

```
- We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the company. We determined
that the following were most relevant: FRS 102, Companies Act 2006, Charities Act 2011, GDPR and Employment Law.
- We consideredthe incentivesand opportunitiesthat exist in the company,includingthe extent of management bias,
which present a potential for irregularities and fraud to be perpetuated, and tailored our risk assessment accordingly.
- Using our knowledgeof the company,togetherwith the discussionsheld with the companyat the planningstage, we
formed a conclusion on the risk of misstatement due to irregularities including fraud and tailored our procedures
according to this risk assessment.
```

```
The key procedures we undertook to detect irregularities including fraud during the course of the audit included:
- Identifying and testing journal entries and the overall accounting records, in particular those that were significant
and unusual.
```

```
- Reviewingthe financialstatementdisclosuresanddeterminingwhetheraccountingpolicieshave been  appropriately
applied.
```

```
- Assessing the extent of compliance, or lack of, with the relevant laws and regulations.
```

```
- Reviewing board meeting minutes throughout the period and subsequent to the year end for discussions of
irregularities including fraud.
```

```
- Reviewing sensitive expense accounts for evidence of irregularities including fraud.
```

```
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those
leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases
the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the
financialstatements,as we will be less likelyto become aware of instancesof non-compliance.The risk is also greater
regardingirregularitiesoccurringduetofraudratherthanerror,asfraudinvolvesintentionalconcealment, forgery,
collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
