Wellne55 FOundat￿n Message from our Co-Founder & Chaimian- Michael Gretschel Our focus for 2020 was on building resilience and sustainability for the future through succession planning, diversification of income streams and delivery of purposeful programs that continue to meet the ever- changing naeds of. and make a dtffereno to, people living with diabetes. To that end, Dr Shivani Misra. Consu￿ant in Metabolic Medicine & Diabetes at Imperial Colleg8 London, was elected to the Board of Trustees in January. Shivani brings a wealth of clinical and scientffic knowledge to the Board having been recognised as one of London's leading health influencers in the Evening Standard's annual Progress 1000 list in 2018. We have known Shivani for many years as shè was awarded a DRWF Fellowship in 2012 and went on to conduct the national My Diabetes Study, Vve are really pleased to have hef join th8 DR WF family. We had planned to grow and develop many of our activitEs in 2020 but of COUTse the Covid-19 pandemic brought the world pretty muth lo a standstill, wrth our daily lives &gnrficantly impacted. It has been a Challenging time for everyone but our small DRWF team really dug deep and were magnifiGent in coping with the change of working arrangements. and cancellation ol activib'es and events which ultimately resulted In several team members being furloughed. We're very lucky to have been able to bring these team members back to their full roles. when mary charities have not been so blessed. The health and safety ol our team has been paramount dunng the pandemic months and we are extremely fortunate to have arrived at this point wrthout having encountered any significant Illness duè to Covi&19. Our hearts go out to all those that have lost family and friends. Much has been learned during these difficult months and we've identÉfied a number of areas in our structure and activities which require investment of funds, time and expertise. 11 is often quoted that 'nec8881ty is the mother of invention, and we certainly discovered this to be the truth in 2020, b&in9 pushed perhaps more quickly than we might have been comfortable with, into exploring online and digital activities in greater depth. Our learnings Irom the pandemic have played a big part in helping us scope out our next 3-year growth strategy, but we are bènefitting from having a stable and well-run chafty with Ihe reserves that enable us to invest in future sustainability. whilst being responsive lo the needs of the people Ihat we 5UPPOrt and the researchers that we fund. Most importantly, we leamed that in the world'5 hour of need, me(li¢81 research pushed all boundarie5 and fcund a vaccine for Covid-19 that is now being rolled-out with lightening-speed to protect our Communrties. Diabetes is one of the wortd's leading heallh challenges- we must act with the same determination in our research for a CUREI As we continue to navigate these uncertain times, I want to thank the DRWF team, trustees, advlsory board members, supportefs and volunteers who work so Ilfelessly and give so generously to our cause.

The financial statements comply wtth the Charitses Act 2011.. the Companies Act 2006,. the Memorandum and Articles of Association and are prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Stsndard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102 Charities SORP) (effective from 1" January 2015). Our purpose, aims and activities The objeds of the charity are: To assist in the relief of persons with diabet88 and any similar or related diseases or conditions To raise public aWa￿nesS about diabetes and any similar or related diseases or conditions, Ih8ir incidence, causes, treatment, avoKlance and relief The focus of our work There are more than 4 million people diagnosed with diabetes in the UK. This figure has morethan doubled n the last 20 years and K is anticipated that If nothing changes, this will rise to 5 mllllon in the next 4 years. Afound 90¥0 of people with diabetes have type 2, which can often be p￿Vented. There a￿ a numb8r of risk factors which increas8 the likelihood of a type 2 diagnosis. such as being overweight or obese, which puts people at greater risk of a range of chronic heaEth condibons and ultimately increased risk of premature death. Approximately 10QA of people with diabetes have type 1 diabetes which is 8 Chronic autoimmune condition where the btsjy Is unable to produce insulin which is required to regulate blood sugar levels. Type 1 diabetes cannot be prevented. It 15 estimated that up to 5Yo of those diagnosed wtth diabeles hav8 ra￿ types such as MODY (maturity onset diabetes in th8 young). CFRD (cystic fibrosis related diabeles), LADA (latent autoimmune diabetes in adults) and a small handful of other types. It is estimated th the care and treatment of diabetes ¢osts the NHS around 1 00/0 of its annual spend, which equates to approximately £10 billion per year. This is a staggering £1.1 million per hour. Whi15t all diabeles can lead to significant hea￿h thallenges, such as increased risk of cardiovascu18r disease, blindness and amputation, it is important to remember that type 2 diabetes can be prevented or at least its onset delayed. There is also evidence of people wrth type 2 diabetes achiewng 'remission' where they have had major weight loss Ihrough restriclive or bariatnc surgery Self-rnanagement of diabetes is central to reducing the risks associated wilh complicat'ons and therefo much of our work is focused on providing infonnation and educational support programmes that empower self_management and seek tc encourage a pro-active approach to good sew-care. We consider that those with the greatest knowledge of their condrtion will have a belter understanding of the disease and will be better equipped to have an Impact on the progression of th￿r diabetes and any associated complications. Our Diabetes Wellness activities in tha community provide a greal plaffomi for meeting people sharing similar health concerns, making new friends and building peer support ￿tWorkS. all of which serve to enhance both the physical and psychosoaal management of diabetes. The research we fund spans all types of diabetes and related health, helping improve understanding of cause. treatment and management wth our ultimate goal being to find a cure for what is considered to be one of the 21°, century's leading health challenges. worldwde.

To-dat8. we have committed almost £13 million to research since our first awards were made in 1999. Demonstrating public baneflt The trustees confirm that they have referred to the 98neral guidance set out by Charty Commission on public benefrt. The trustees are satisfied that the Charty's aclivrties meet the principles of public benefit, defined as providing an idèntifiable benefitls to the public, 01 section of the public. and know of no delrirnent or harm that may be caused as a ￿sUIt of these activities, which are clearly sel out throughtrut this report.

The number of volunteers fluctuates each year bLrt is Grucial to helping us spread the word about the work we do and to support local and national communty fundraising initiatives. We had hoped to grow our valunteer nehvork through a higher level of community adivity in 2020, however the pandemic prevented us from doing so. We hope to be able to resume community activity as soon as Covid- 19 allows and plan to build on the number of volunteers who support the charity as soon as possible, In the meantime, we wholeheartedly thank all of our volunteers for theii time, expertise and commitment to our work which helps us raise awarenessto the charity, maximise income and maintain high standards of work. Measurfng Impact We use qualitative and quantitstive approaches to monitor and evaluate our activities in order to ensure that they remain true to purpose and that the outcomes aimed for are achieved. Stakeholdeis and beneficiaries are involved in Ihese evaluation processes to ensure the continued relevance, quality, accessibility and effectiveness of activities. We also undertake independent evaluation with specialist partners fcr specific projects where expert input is required. Activities & Achievements in 2020 Awarene88, Informatlon & support Direct mail played a key part in our communications strategy during 2020, SLJPPOrting our desire to slay connected wfth key audiences who do not routlnely engage with online channels.

It was clear from the outsel of the pandemiG that our ability to reach those that wè support through digital channels was going to be crucial to our continued operations. To that end, we had to adapt quickly to enga9e with supporters and benefi￿arleS alike with lockdown measures accelerating our use of digital channels. This was essenlial in order to stay connected with the diabetes community during a time of considerable stres5. when people with diabetes were being told that they were at greater risk of significanl illness if they contracted coronavirus. We doubled our efforts lo generate regular reliabl8 news items, and self-management articles to support people through improved understanding of 'sick day rules,. In 2019 our website received 190.174 unique page views. In 2020 that rose lo 372,045 uniqué page views. This is an increase in websrte traffic of over 95'A. At the start of the pandemic. when it became apparent that we would have to cancel our community events for the foreseeable future, we ran a social media campaign to promote our series of diabetes information leaflets to ensure that P60ple were sign-posted to reliable, Information Standard a¢credited, adult health and social Care infomation. In 2019 there were 10,653 downloads of these leaflets. In 2020 this leapt to 37,416 which is a thre&fold increase. ilst in 2019 we had started to explore podcast content as a means of engaging and supporting diabetes healthcare professionals and people living with diabetes, we Increased our efforts through this channel in 2020 as an alternative to written information and video Contenl. This resulted in double the number of visitors to our podcasts about Lrfe with Diabetes seeing 549 downloads, a small but solid start to delivering infomiation in this format. In 2020 we increased our efforts to ralse awareness of our actiwtlas and servlces to more peoplè through social media campaigns with most engagement being seen through our Facebook page. In 2019 our sponsor&J content reached an average of 7.597 people a day, roughly 2,773,000 people in total. In 2020 our sponsored content re8¢h more than doubled lo an average of 20,399 people a day, around 7,445,635 people in tolal and well over 10°A of the total UK population.

Our p8tient infomiation resources are available fw of charge. As stsndafd, they can be requested in hard copy or downloaded from our website as pdf or audio files,. requested In enlarged print format or allernative. There was a significanl reduction in requests for physical information in the period. This is possibly because people were otherwise caught up in the pandemic. Additionally, because we had minimal staff onsite we were encouraging people to go lo our website to download information in pdf and audio format,. to listen to our podcast series for additional help and lo interact wth our social media channels. The Impact of this contributes to the increased traffic to our websrte during the period whi¢h saw a 3-fold increase in the volume of resources downloaded. We distributed 117,177 copies of our newsletter. Diabetes Wellness News, to subscribers. healthcare professionals and regular givers. This is 2 10h decrease in the circulation numbers of 2019. The newslelter is distributed lo annual subscnbers, and on a complimentary basis to heallhcare providers who share the infrjrmation with their patient communitRs. On a quartedy ba515 the circulation Is b¢)osted as we focus on the research element of our work and send a copy to our regular givers. It is difficult to accurately predict the true readership of the newsletter but through anecdotal evidence. it is clear that il is much wider than those who have specifically requgsted to rec8ive it. The number of healthcare professionals on Our database increased by 60/0 during the year and this was largely due to sjgn up of HCPS at Diabetes Professional Care held at the end of 2019.

This leads lo poorer health outcomes, reduced quality of life and increased healthcare costs. Being able to access appropriate support 15 integral lo good self-management.

Delegates choose the sessions and talks that they attend meaning that they create their own agenda for th8 day. improving engagement and supporting better outcomes. These events bring together a wealth of information, expertise and peer support under one roof. The event programme is devised and delivered by experts and offer5 rolating workshops that focus on the day-to-day management of diabetes and the prevention and management of associated complications.

We know thal managing diabetes is challenging and effeciive coping strategies are crucial lo support optimal health. These coping strategies are important not just to people living With diabetes but their family, friends and carers. Peer support plays an important part in emollonal wellbeing and this in turn can have an obvious Impacl on the ability to self-manage effectively. For this ￿aSon. we feel it is important to include family. friends and carers in workshops and discussions which facilitates discussion around managing diabetes. perception5 and expectations, in an environment where everyone has experienced or is expenencing something similar. These events are relaxed and welcoming in approach. They are inclusive and provide for diverse needs. Thèy also provide an amazing opportunity to SFknd time with a whole host of health care professionals asking the questions that really rnatter to the individual, in a relaxed and informal environment.

(habew Research Diabetes Wellness Days in 2020 There were 3 Wellness Days scheduled to take pla￿ in 2020, all of which had to be cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic. Venue terms and conditions were negotiated to minimize any cost to the charity due to cancellation. All venues were very considerate in their approach and allowed for rescheduling of dates with deferment of deposits and cancellation charges where applicable. The cancellation of these events redU￿d related workload and so the DRWF event co-ordinator role was furloughed be￿een 181 May and 30th September. supported through the Government's Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme. We produced an interactive digital toolkit incorporating top tips and self-management articles with links to podcast and video content for beneficiaries who had registered to attend the Wellness events. This at least went some way to ensuring that we had provided access to the suppcrtive conlenl that participants would have benefitted from had they been able to attend an event in person. Diabetes Professior,al Care-DPC Dlabetes Professlonal Care & Unlted Through Dlabet88 We have supported Diabetes Professional Care {DPC) in the provision ofan educational event for diabetes and related health care professionals for the past 5 years. Usually this CPD accredited event accommodates 5000+ attendees, over a 2-day period at Olympia in London. DPC was unable to proceed with the usual format of event due to the pandemic. Working with an online media agency, they were able to pivot quickly offering online educational workshops to HCP'S throughout the pandemic months which culminated in a large online activity in the lead-up to World Diabetes Day. This gave "Just Ilke to say • hug• DRWF an opportunity to relain visibility wrthin the HCP THANK YOU for a fabulously community, contributing to Ihe programme of talks and Infom7atlve and useful day. workshops, as well as providing a plattorm for engaging Well organlsed, wlth t8lks fmm those who have the Interested parties in discussion about the charity's aclivities. knowledgo." In partnership with DPC, we co-hosted an additional patient educational event entitled United thmugh Diabetes on World Diabetes Day. This helped us to deliver a purposeful event at scale on a digital platform that we otherwise could not have offered to the diabetes community. There were over 4000 pre-registrations for UTD from diabetes healthcare professionals. public health officials and people living with diabetes from around the world. On November 141h 1340 people logged-on to the virtual platform and participaled in 21 workshops, talks, panel discussions and community forum sessions, supported by 35 diabetes and related health experts Ihfoughoul the day.

Dièbeies Rèseèrth Et W4ikne55 Founda￿On govemment and other funding bodies recognise AMRC membership as an indicator of quality. It also qualifies our grant funding for support from the govemment's Charity Research Support Fund which enables universities to increase the funds we award by around 20Q/D. We also benefit from the AMRC training and development programme which supports continued use of besi practice processes and procedures. It was clear very early on following lockdown on 23td March, that research in progress and research funding would be adversely affected by the pandemic. AMRC liaised with its charity members from the outset to establish the impact that Covid-19 would have on charity income". ability to continu8 funding existing awards, and the impact on new funding calls. They reported an anticipated 41 Vo downturn in research funding over the next year. a predicted £310 million shortfall in support of life-saving discovenes. The DRIfvF 2020 Non-clinical Fellowship award that had been called in late 2019 was deferred until November 2020; a 5-month delay to our usual review and allocation schedule. This was largely due to the unavailability of clinicianslscientists who perform peer reV￿W on applications received, where they had been redeployed or furloughed due to Covid-19. This delay had a knock-on effect to the call for applications for the 2021 Pump Priming awards being announced. This usually takes place in August for award by 31 December. However, on this occasion the call was announced in November for award in Q2 2021. The d&fennent of our grants round during the year reduced associated workload and il seemed prudent al that time to fudough our Research Grants Administrator between 1° May and 30th October. This role was supported through the Government's Coronavirus Job Retention schem•. We liaised with all Current funding recipients to understand the environment within which they were working. to establish whether there was pause or delay to th•r work which would necessitate a 'no-cost extension, request. Thi5 was the case with a number of awards, wrth a total of 10 researchers being offered exlenslons inlo 2021.

Having reviewed the proposals. the Board considered that it would be Prudent to off8r continued funding for 1 year only. giving us the opportunity to establish how Covid-19 would impact our income over Ihe course of the year. This resulted In new awards being offergj for 1 yearfrom 14 May 2020- 30° April 2021. Subsequently, due to Covld-19, the Islet Transplant Administrator position was furloughed and later becarne vacant. The DepLrty Lab Manager position also became vacant with no-cost extensions being agreed by the Board for both positions. Impact report from the Dlrector of the DRWF Islet Isolatlon Facillty Churchill Hospltal, Oxford by Professor Paul Johnson ()xi-,0121) The last 12 months has been a challenging time for everyone involved in healthcare worfdwKle. Many routlne treatments in our hospitals have been 8uspended as our cllnical services have been protected to ensure sufficient capacity for the large number of COVID admission5. In addition, the considerable risk of stsrting patients on powerful immunosuppression in a COVID envrronment has meant that many transplant services have been severely restricted. In Oxford, most of our transplant services were suspenaed for a large part of the pandemic. The UK 151et Transplant Programme remained open for a small nurnber of priority patients only who were requinng 'top-up' grafts. These patients were chosen as they had an urgent cllnical need and had already been established on immunosuppressian. The Oxft)rd DRWF Human Islet Isolation Facilily therefore remained open throughout the pandemic to provide islets for these patients and the staff remained 'on call, throughout. Pancreas donation was initially significantly reduced due to ICU restrictions and difficutties proving thai donors were definitely COVID-free. However, once these issuas had been addressed, organ donation activrty for clinical use was re-establish&J. However, research pancreayes remained very limited. We continue to process pancreases from a broad donor pool. Impresswely, our isolation outcomes ontinue to match the leading isolation centres World-wide for this range of donors. In 2018, ￿enty-foUr out of 53 pancreases processed resulted in an islet yield of >200.000 IEQ whereas in 2019 this was twenty- two out of 43. Pre-COVID we also continued to isolate and distribute research islets lo scientists across the UK, wth 19 islet preparations distributed to a wide range of research groups throughout the UK in 2018 and 16 in 2019. Our provision of high-quality human dinical Islets has Impacted direcuy on patients with type 1 diabetes locally and throughout the UK. with transfomied by diabetes stabilisation and reversal. The distribution of research islets has enabled a wide-range of drfferent diabetes research projects lo be undertaken resulting in many high-impact publications. The generous funding from DR has been essential for these achievements. During the pandemic, the University closed many of ts research facilities for various periods of time. This has limited our research activity, but the team has continued to be research active whenever this has been possible. We continue lo undertake novel research into the development of physiolog ical islet scaffold5 and islet macro-capsules. design of a novel islet culture. and optr"misation of islet oxygenation including proteomic characterisation during i51et isolation.

How we raised our money In 2020 Our approach to fundraislng - The Trustees are aware of their individual responsibility and accountability lo ensu￿ that the Gharity fundraises legally, responsibly and effectively. Our focus for 2020 was on building re$ll￿nCe and sustainability for the future through succession planning, diversification of income streams and delivary of purposeful programs Ihat continue to meet the ever<h8nging needs of people with diabetes. The largest volume fundraising activity that the chanty has is a direct mail programme. Legacy income and regular giving programmes are also sources of higher volumelvalue donations to the charity at this point and we seek to develop Communty and digital fundraising activilEs so that they make a more meaningful contribution to the charity's public engagemenl and income generation. Additionally, we make applications to appropriate trusts and foundations. Historically, we hav6 relied heavily on income from Direct Mail and Regular Giving programmes to $ustain our voluntary income. These programmes continue and do very well for us. but in order lo ensure that we are competitive and responsive lo our supporter needs, current and new, we must ensure that we offer engagement choice and an experience that hel￿ maximise recruitment opportunities and capitalises on retention and loyalty.

Our Direct Mail programme was affected in the early months of COVKI with a number of campaigns being dropped andlor delayed in the schedule. We had hoped to step up prospecting in 2020 and whilst a couple of tests were condL¢Cted, we didn't manage to carry out the level of acquisition that we'd projected for the year. The overall volume of DM campaigns dislributed in 2020 was around 35.10 less than in 2019 with an over311 redudion of income of 24 /0 in this activity- ilst there were no changes to main Sery1￿ providers in the period, our Direct Mail pfogramme response handlers experienced issues very eady on meaning that they offered restricted services between March and July. This meant that we had to be readive and put in pla￿ temporary processes to enable continuation of campaign responses from our offices. requiring two staff to work on-site to manage incoming mail, open batch and bank donatr'ons etc. Whilst the volume of mail that we were able to process through a manual procèss was limited, rt meanl that we were helping to minimise the backlog of mail building up, limit impact on cash-flow and enabl8 real-time infomiation to be updated on our CRM so as to avoid future impact on our appeals and campaigns.

Legacy income. which is difficult to accurately predict, increased ￿eYOnd expectats'on in th8 year. We received notification of numerous bequests, some of which were quite high value and which deposited funds very quickly. Legacy income was around 69 /4 h￿hor than we had ant￿Ipated during the year, around £300,000+ up on budget. We had planned to scale up our communty fundraising activities in early 2020 by hiring a regional community fundraiser in the Midlands, however this plan had to be put on hold. Our full programme of charity organised community fundraising activrties was cancelled between 23 March and 31" December, reducing projected Income from this stream by around 70°A.

.) Diabeies Respirth & Wel￿￿$￿ Founthtion Investment Policy Under the Memorandum arKI Artides of Ass¢xiation. the charity has the p)wer to invest in any way the trustees see fit. The trusteés, in order to minimise to risk and having regard to the liquidity rèquirements of the charity, and to Ihe reserves policy, have historically operated a policy of keeping available funds in a higher interest bearing deposit account seeking to achieve a rate of deposrt interest which matches or exceeds inflalion as measured by the retail prices index. The trustees have regularly reV￿wed opportunities to increase investment retum from short-term. easy acces5. Options bearing in mind the desire to ensure that we can reaGt quickly to appropriate requests for additional research support as they arise. The trustees are also conscious of on%oing cash-flow requirements during a challenging lime where historical fundraising methods are raising less income and where new methods of fundraising are being tested at higher cost. All things considered, the trustees believe it appropriate to continue to explore investmènt opportunities as they present themselves. With a view io maximising return on ils deposits. Reserves Pollcy To safeguard the need for suificlent funds lo cover ongoing management, adminlstration and support costs, as well as respond lo further grant requests that might arise. the Board aims to maintain unr&slricted, free reserves at a level that equals 3-6 months of operating and charitable expenditures, which equates lo be￿een £539,907 and £1,079,814. During financial year 2020, lolal expenditure was £1.674.390 Allowing for adjustrnents and forward research commitments, the charity's expenditures for financial year 2021 are likely to be in the region of £2,159,628. At 316C December 2020. the charity held free reserves {unrestricted reserves less designated funcling, less fixed assets) of £2,981.340. This is the equlvalent of approximately 16.6 months operatsng and charitable expenditures. The trustees are committed lo strengthening exislin9 income Streams whilst diversifying fundraising activities lo redu￿ reliance on single sources. 11 is expected that this will lake investment in testing of activities where the accuracy of predicting response rates. in terms of volume and value of gift, will be more challenging and take time to inform our wider grovrth strategy. The pandemic has shown us the need to have a broad range of activities and has highlighted the need for investment in technology, expertise and resour¢e. Funds have been designated for this purpose. Currant resery8s, whilst in eX￿s5 of those anticipated, will enable us to establish the medium-long tem impact of the pandemie on fundraising ath"vitie5 and navigate these more challenging times whilst exploring ways in which to dIVer￿fy income generation and develop the charty's objective activities for future sustainabilrty.

The trustees have made this a55e5sment for a period of al least one year from the date of the approval of these financial slatements having giv8n consideralion to known commitments, forecasts and projections and possible pressures on income generats"on. After making these considerations. the trustees conclude that there is a reasonable expectation that the Gharitable company has adequate resouros to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.

Misstalemenls can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregale, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic ée¢isions of users taken on the basis of these financial stalemenls. I rregularities, including fraud. are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with OUT responsibilrties, oulined above. to delect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, Including ftaud. The exlenl to which our prO￿dUreS are capable of delecb'ng irreg4jlarilies, Including fraud Is detailed below.

Explanation as to what extent the audlt wag considered capablo of dgtecting Irregularities, including fraud The objectives of our audit in respect of fraud. are.. to idenlty and assess the rlsks of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud." to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of matarial misstatement due to fraud, through designing and Implementing appropriate responses to those assessed ri$ks,' and to respond appropriately lo instances of fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit. However. the primary responsibility lor the prevention and detection of fraud rests wrth both rronagemenl and those charged goverrtantx of the charitable company. Our approach was as follows". We obtained an understsnding ol the legal and regulalory requirements applicable to the Charitable company and considered that the most significant are the Companies Act 2006, Ihe Charities Act 2011, the Charity SORP, and UK financial reporting standards as issued by th6 Financial Reporting Council. We obtained an understsnding ol how the charitable company complies with these reqU1￿MentS by discussions Wrth management and Ihose charged with governance. We assessed the risk of material mi5Statemenl of the financial statements, Including the risk of matèrial fflisststemenl due lo fraud and how it might occur, ty holding discussions wrth management and those charged with governance. We inquired of management and thos• charged wrth governance as lo any known instsnces of non-compliance or susFected non<ompliance with laws and regulations. Based on this uncjerstanding. we designed specffic appropriate audit pro￿ur&S lo identify instances of non-¢ompliance with laws and regulations. This included making enquiries of managemenl and those charged with governance and obtaining addibonal cOr¥oL￿TatIve evidence as required. As part of an audit in accordance ISAS (UKI we exercise professional judgement and maintsin professional sceplicisrn throughout ihe audil. We also.. Identify and assess the risks of malenal m1ssta1e￿￿nt of the financial statements, whether du8 lo fraud or error. design and perform audit procedures responsive lo those risk5, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misslalemenl resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulb'ng from error, as traud may involve collusion. forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. obtain an understanding of inlemal control relevant to the audil in order lo desgn audit procedures thal are appropr￿te In the circumstsnces. bul not for the purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the chantable ¢ompany's inl&mal control. Evaluate the appropnateness of accounting poI￿leS used and the reasonableness of accounting estimate5 and related disclosures made by the trustees. Conclude ort the approprlatenes5 of the trustees, use of the goiw concem basis of accounting and, based on the audit eviden￿ obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related lo events or conditions that may cast signifunt doubt on the charitable company's ability lo continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are requi￿& lo draw attenb.on in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial slalements or, if such disclosures are inadequate. to mc¥Jify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the dale of our auditors report. However. future events or conditions may cause the charrtable company to cease lo ￿ntinUe as a going Goncefn. 25

Evaluate the ovefall presentstion, structure and content of the finallcial statements, including the disclosures. and whether the financial statemènts represent the undertying transactions and events in a manner thal achieves fair presentation.
