## **Statement of trustees' responsibility**
Charity regulations requires the trustees to prepare financial statements that give a true and fair view of the charity's financial activities during the year and its financial position at the end of the year.
In doing so the trustees are required to:-
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgements and reasonable and prudent judgement;
- state whether applicable accounting standards and statement of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with applicable law, regulations and the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
By order of the Board
