that if Free Res¢rv¢s are further eroded in the Coming years that these are rebuilt as a priority.
Any unrestrict¢d r¢s¢rves in excess of the free reserves target will Ix designated into the Capital Renewal fund
representing amounts set aside to ensure ongoing renewal and r¢plkeement of the building infrastrncture. Over the
coming years the Trustees will look lo maintain this r¢serve currently £0.85 million.
Golng Concern
The Trustees have assessed Th¢ Roundhouse's ability to continue as a going ¢on¢¢rn.
They have considered several factors when forniing iheir ¢on¢lusion os to whether the use of the going Concern basis
is appropriate when preparing thes¢ finatt¢i811 stat¢m¢nts including a review of updated forecasts and cash flow to
March 2026. and a ¢onsid¢ration of key risks, that could negatively affect th¢ ¢hariry as well as the succ¢$5 of
mitigatin8 factors that have been implemented.
Our core unrestricted reserves are funded from a Combination of fundraising income and comm¢r¢ial ineome. As
noted in the reserves policy abov¢. the level of unrestricted reserves stands at £1.6 million at the end of March 2024.
The key risks in our financial model are described in more d¢tsil in the Risk Management section on page I l. Of
particular relevance to going concern is the risk link¢d to maintaining financial strength and sustainability.
Alongsid¢ the ¢K¢CUtiY¢ the Trustees are reviewing the financial wsition clos¢ly on a regular basis, and updating
¢xp¢¢t¢d futyre scenarios based on the actual monthly Tesults and any ¢honging external factors.
We have setout above a review of The Roundhouse Trust's financial perforn)ance and the general reserves position.
Our planning pro¢¢sses, including financial projections, have taken into consideration the current economi¢ ¢limale
and its pol¢ntial impact on the various Sources of income and planned ¢xp¢nditt)re. We have a reasonable exp¢ctation
that we have adequate resources to continue in operalional ¢xisi¢nc¢ forthe foreseeable future. W¢ believe that there
are no ￿￿¢rIal un¢¢rtainties that call into doubt The Trust's ability to continu¢ lo operate. Accordingly, the a¢¢ounts
have been prepared on the basis that The Roundhouse Trust is a going concern.
Trustee duties in relation to Section 172 of the Companies Act
The Board of Trustee5 is aware of its duty under S¢ction 172 of the Companies Act 2006 to act in a way th￿ 15

Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the trustees, r¢spoDsibilities statement [set out on page 241, the trustees (who are also th¢

Auditor's respon5ibilitie5 for the audit of the fin&n¢i41 $tatemellts
Our obj¢¢tiv¢$ ar¢ to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the finan¢ial ststements as a whole are free from material
misstat¢m¢nL wh¢ther due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opillion. Reasonable assurarkce
is a high level of assurance. but is not a guarantee that an fdudit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always d¢t¢¢t
a Tnaterial misstst¢ment when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered mai¢rial if,
individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be exp¢¢t¢d lo influence the economic de¢isions of users taken on
the basis of these financial statements.
Detsils of th¢ extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irr¢gularities, including fraud and non-
complianee with laws and regulation5 ue set oul below.
A further d¢8cription of our responsibilities for the audit of the finarAcial ￿atr￿entS is located on the Financial Rep)rting
Council's website at.. www.frc.or
.ukJauditorsres
ibililics. This description forms part of our auditor's rep)rt.
Extent to which the audit wa& ¢on$ideved ¢*p•ble of deteeting irregularities, including fraud
Irregularities, in¢luding fraud, are instances of non-compliance wilh laws and r¢gul2lions. We identifLed and ass¢ssed the
risks of material misstatement of the Financ?&1 stalem¢nts from irr¢gularilies. whether due to fraud or ¢rror, and discussed
these between our audit team members. We then designed and perfomied audit procedures responsive to those ris
including obtaining audit evid¢nc¢ sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
W¢ obiain¢d An understanding of the leg&1 and regulatory frameworks within which the charitable company and group
operates, focusing on those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the detertninatiot] of material amounts and
di￿lOSure$ in th¢ financial statements. The laws and regulations we consider¢d in this ￿ntext were:
Charities Act 2011
CoTnpanies Act 2006
Charities SORP
W¢ assessed the required compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our audit procedur¢$ on th¢ related fmancial
sÉatement items.
In addition. w¢ ¢onsid¢red provisions of other laws gnd regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial
statements but compliance with which might be nec¢ssary io th¢ ¢haritable comp8ny's and the group's ability to operate or
to avoid a material penalty. We also Considered th¢ Oppor￿nItIeS and incentives that may ¢xist within the charitable
company and th¢ group for fraud. The laws and regulations we considered in this eontext for the UK operations were..
Charity Commission regulations
General Data Protection R¢gulation (GDPR)
Anti-frnud, bribery and corruption legislation
Health and safety l¢gislation
Employment legislation
Safeguarding legislation
Auditing standards limit the required audit procedures to identify non-complian¢¢ with these laws and regulations to
enquiry of th¢ Trustee8 and other management and inspeclion of regulatory and legal COTresponden¢¢, if any.

THE ROUNDHOUSE TRUST
CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL ACTIVITIES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2024
W¢ identified th¢ gr¢at¢st risk of material impact on the financial statements from irregularities, including fraud, to be
withtn th¢ timing and recognition of grant income and donations, compl￿¢￿eSS of trading in¢oTne and th¢ overrid¢ of
controls by management. Our audit procedures to respond to these risks includ¢d ¢nquiries of management and the
Business, Audit & Risk Committee about th¢ir own identification and assessment of the risks of irregulaTitie4 sample
testing on income and the posting of joumals, reviewing accounting ¢stitnat¢s for biases, reviewing regulatory
CorreSpond¢n￿ with the Charity Commission, and Teading minutes of meetings of those charged with gov¢rnan¢¢.
Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, Ih¢r¢ is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material
misstatements in the financial statements, even though we hav¢ prop¢rly planned and performed our audit in accordance
with auditing standards. For example, the further removed non-complian¢¢ with laws and regulations (ittegularities) is from
th¢ events and transactions reflected in the fll)ancial slat¢m¢nts, the less likely the inherently limited procedures required by
auditing standards would identify it. In addition, as with any audit, th¢r¢ r¢mained a higher risk of non-dete¢tion of
irregulariti¢4 as these may involve Collusion, forgery* intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal
controls. We are not r¢sponsible lor preventing non-compliance and cannot be expected to deteet non-eomplianc¢ with all
laws and regulations.
Use Of our r¢port
This report is mad¢ solely to the charitable company's member4 as a body. in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the
Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertak¢n so thtlt w¢ might state to the charitable company's members
those mAtt¢rs we aTe required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpos¢. To the fullest ext¢nt permitted
by law, we do not ac¢¢pt or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitV¢ble
ompany's members as a body. for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have fornied.
