LONDON FREEMASONS, CHARITY
Report of the Chairman of the Executive Committee
Year Ended 30 September 2023
I will start by updating you on what your charity, the London Freemasons, Charity l°LFC"I, has been
doing in parallel to our superb appeal for London's Air Ambulance. We have continued to weive many
grant applications from small and medium-sized charities which focus their attention in and for London.
Many of these have been successful in their application and I highlight those that were successful last
year in the following pages. Vvhilsl this is fantastic, the money outbound from the LFC funds has not been
matched by donations inbound from Lodges and Chapters, meaning that our funds need replenishing to
continue this good work. This is of course understandable as a large number of your Lodges and
Chapters are concentrating on the Air Ambulance appeal, but I would ask if you could also consider
allocating funds to the LFC to lop up the coffers.
Our malch-funding initiative has been an even greater success than last year. Those Lodges and
Chapters which applied for match funding have all been successful, lo the lune of £123,000 lo different
charities, with £78,000 for the London's Air Ambulance Appeal.
I would like lo take this opportunity to thank my fellow Trustees for their work and also to those behind the
scenes in the office of Metropolitsn Grand Lodge, especially Carole Hunt who is our financial manager,
and to the Trustee who acts as Secretary lo the LFC, James Walker. It would be difficult lo run the charity
without these two individuals and I thank them for the help and advice that they continually give.
In relation to the London's Air Ambulance Appeal, our Metropolitan Grand Charity Steward, Paul King,
and his team have been working hard over the last year, and to assist them there is a page on Rosella
that explains how funds can be transferred into this account. Please refer to this page for making
donations.
In January this year, il was noted that 818 Lodges and Chapters had yet to make any donation to the
London's Air Ambulance Appeal. I know that some Lodges and Chapters have their own charities that
they traditionally support, and I fully endorse that, however, it is disheartening that these Lodges and
Chapters have presumably made the decision not to support their brothers within London Freemasonry
and lo not make any donats'on at all lo the Appeal.
There are still considerable funds in the Relief Chest and many dormant Relief Chests. Brethren, we
need lo move these funds., whether to the charities of your choice, lo LFC, or to the Air Ambulance
appeal. I look to all Charity Stewards lo check their Relief Chest and gel them active and efficient.
Based on the amount still sitting in the Relief Chests of Lodges in London money that has already been
raised we could achieve this in a few months if the members so wished. Let's get this done now
London's Air Ambulance Is 'Up Against Time,. 11 is up to us to complete our commitment of £3,000,000,
and let us all help those who save lives, lo save lives.

Independent Auditor's Report
Year Ended 30 September 2023
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF LONDON FREEMASONS, CHARITY
Opinion
We have audited the financial ststements of London Freemasons, Charity (the 'charity'l for the year ended
30 September 2023 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement
of Cash Flows and notes to the financial slatemenls, including significant accounting policies. The financial
reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom
Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and
Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial stalemenls..
give a true and fair view of the slate of the charity's affairs as al 30 September 2023, and of its
incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year
then ended",
have been properfy prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting
Practice,. and
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
Basls for oplnlon
We conducted our audit in accordance with Intemational Standards on Auditing IUKI IISAS IUKII and
applicable law. Our responsibilities under those stsndards are further described in the Auditor's
responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the
charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant lo our audit of the fi'nancial statements
in the UK, including the FRC'S Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in
accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and
appropriate lo provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial slatemenls, we have concluded that the trustees, use of the going concern basis of
accounting In the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or
conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a
going COn￿M for a period of al least ￿e1ve months from when the financial statements are authorised for
issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concem are described in the
relevant sections of this report.
Other Infomiatlon
The other information comprises the information included in the report of the Executive Committee, other
than the financial statements and our auditorfs report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other
information contained within the report of the ExecLJtive Committee. Our opinion on the financial statements
does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our
responsibility is lo read the other infomiation and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is
materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or
otherwise appears lo be materially misststed. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent
material misstslements, we are required to detemiine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in
the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have perfomied, we conclude that there is a
material misstatement of this other infomiation, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.

LONDON FREEMASONS, CHARITY
Independent Auditor's Report
Year Ended 30 September 2023
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing lo report in respect of the following matters in relation lo which the Charities (Accounts and
Reportsl Regulations 2008 require us to report lo you if, in our opinion..
the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the
trustees, report., or
sufficient accounting records have not been kept,. or
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records., or
we have not received all the infomalion and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the trustees, responsibilities stslement, the trustees are responsible for the
preparation of financial statements which give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the
trustees determine Is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material
misststemenl, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going
concern basis of accounting unless the Iruslees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations,
or have no realistic alternative bul to do so.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance
with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are
free from material misslalement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes
our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assuran￿ bul is not a guarantee that an audit
conducted in accordance with ISAS IUKI will always detect a material misslalement when it exists.
Misslatemenls can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate,
they could reasonably be expected lo influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these
financial stslements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design
procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misslatemenls in respect of
irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of delecling irregularities,
including fraud is detailed below..
We obtained an understanding of the charity and the sector in which it operates lo identify laws and
regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a direct effect on the financial statements. We
obtained our understanding in this regard through discussions with management, application of
cumulative audit knowledge and experien￿ of the sector.
We delemiined the principal laws and regulations relevant lo the charity in this regard lo be those
arising from Charities Act 2011 and Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008.
We designed our audit procedures to ensure the audit team considered whether there were any
indications of non-compliance by the charity with those laws and regulations. These procedures
included, but were not limited to enquiries of management and review of minutes.

LONDON FREEMASONS, CHARITY
Independent Auditor's Report
Year Ended 30 September 2023
We also identified the risks of material misstalemenl of the financial statements due lo fraud. We did
not consider there to be any risks, in addition lo the non-rebuttable presumpb'on of a risk of fraud
arising from management override of controls.
As in all of our audits, we addressed the risk of fraud arising from management override of controls
by performing audit procedures which included, but were not limited lo". the lesling of journals.,
reviewing accounting estimates for evidence of bias, and evaluating the business rationale of any
significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including
those leading lo a material misstalemenl in the financial stslemenls 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 financial slatemenls, as we will be less likely to become aware of InStan￿S of non-
compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due lo fraud rather than error, as fraud
involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial
Reporting Council's website at.. www.frc.or
.uklauditorsres
onsibilities. This description forms part of our
auditor's report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities
(Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might stale to
the charity's trustees those mallers we are required to slate lo them in an aLJdilor's report and for no other
purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other
than the charity and the charity's trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we
have formed.
