The Anchor Foundation Independent Auditor's Report to the Trustees and Members of The Anchor Foundation for the year ended 31 March 2024 Opinion We have audtted the financial statements of The Anchor Foundation (the '¢haritable company'l for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet, and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). In our opinion the financial statements: give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2024, and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expendilure, for the year then ended., have been property prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice., and have been prepared in accordance wrth the requirements of the Companies Act 2006, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and regulation 8 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing {UK) {ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditorfs responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable ¢ompany in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC'S Ethical Standard, and we have futfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Conclusions relatEng to going concem In auditing the financial statements, 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 perfomied, we have not identrfied any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that. individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going conrn for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees wrth respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. Other Infomiatlon The other information comprises the infomation included in the trustees, annual report. other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly ststed in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other infomialion is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to detemine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
The Anchor Foundation Independent Auditor's Report to the Trustees and Members of The Anchor Foundation for the year ended 31 March 2024 (continued) Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companles Act 2006 In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: the infomiation given in the trustees, report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements- and the trustees, feport has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. Matters on whlch we are requlred to report by exception In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees, report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Accounts {Scotland) Regulations 2006 require us to report to you if, in our opinion.. adequate and proper accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us- or the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and retums., or certain disclosures of directors, remuneration specified by law are not made-, or we have not received all the infomiatton and explanations we require for our audit,. or the trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies, regime and take advantage of the small companies. exemptions in preparing the directors, port from the requirement to prepare a strategic report. Responsibilities of trustees As explained more fully in the statement of trustees, responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they 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 misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the fin8ncial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going contsm, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concem basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic altemattve but to do so. Auditovs responsibilities forthe audit of the financial statements We have been appointed as auditor under section 44(1)(c) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and under the Companies Act 2006 and report in accordance with regulations made under those Acts. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, 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. but is not a guarantee that an audit Conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
The Anchor Foundation Independent Auditor's Report to the Trustees and Members of The Anchor Foundation for the year ended 31 March 2024 (continued) Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non<ompliance with laws and regulations. We design our procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The specific prOdureS for this engagement and the extent to which these are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.. InqUid of management, and those charged with govemance, about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities, including any known actual, suspected or alleged instances of fraud., The audit engagement team identified the risk of management override of controls as the area where the financial statements were most susceptible to material misstatement due to fraud. Audit procedures performed included bLrt were not limited to testing manual joumal entries and other adjustments, evaluating the business rationale in relation to any significant unusual transactions and challenging judgements and estimates., Reviewing minutes of meetings held by management and those charged with governance to identrfy any matters including actual or attempted fraud, litigation and noncompliance with laws and regulations., Inspecting expenditure incurred in the year while making sure this has been appropriately categorised in the accounts. This included agreeing a sample from the nominal ledger to purchase invoice while also reviewing post year end transactions and invoices to confirm the completeness of the expenditure was disclosed.
The Anchor Foundation Independent Auditor's Report to the Trustees and Members of The Anchor Foundation for the year ended 31 March 2024 (continued) Based on the inherent limttations 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 financial statements. as we will be less likety to become aware of instances of non- compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud nvolves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation. As part of an audÉt in accordance with ISAS (UK), we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also= Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. design and perform audtt procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery. intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of intemal control. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the charttable company's internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the trustees. Conclude on the appropriateness of the trustees, use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material UnrtaInty exists related to events or Conditions that may cast signrficant doubt on the charitable company's abilty to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists. we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, rf such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditorfs report. However, future events or Conditions may cause the charitable company to cease to continue as a going concem. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements. including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underfying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audtt and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identfy during our audit. Use of our report This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006, and to the charitable company's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Regulation 10 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members and trustees those matters we are required to State to them in an auditorfs 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 charitable company. the charitable company's members as a body and the charitable company's trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
