relums., or
we have not received all the information and explanalions we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of Irusteas
As explained more fully in the Stalement of Trustees, ResponSibili￿eS, the Irustees
(who are also the directors of the chartiable 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 inlemal conlrol as the trustees
determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial slatements that are free

error, and to issue a Report of the Independent AudStors that inckndes our opinion.
Reasonable assuran￿ is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an
audit conducled in accordan￿ with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material
mi551atement when il exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and a
Considered rnalerial if, indiwdually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be
expe¢led io influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these
financial statements.
The exlent to which ¢)ur procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, induding
traud is detailed below".
We designed and performed control and substantive testing with our responsibilities
in respecl to detecting irregularities in mind. We applied an approach of professional
scepticism al all limes. Allhough our audit is not a guarantee that no fraud or
irregularities exist, we believe our approach has a reasonable expectation of detecling
material irregularities, including fraud, should they exist.
