## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**
## **Principal funding sources**
Tai Pawb continues to supplement core funding with income from membership fees, training, consultancy and Tai Pawb events. The restructure of staff and membership benefits is also a planned move towards greater sustainability in face of previous cuts to Tai Pawb's core funding. Appointment of Fundraising and Partnerships Manager is another key element of the goal of increased sustainability going forward and diversification of funding streams, with core unrestricted funding secured from Oak Foundation in July 2021, project funding secured from Comic Relief in July 2021 and a one-off Third Sector Resilience Grant secured from WCVA for 2022-23 to help counteract the effects of Covid-19 on our income and support greater financial resilience into the future.
This year saw the development of a Business Plan including fundraising strategy. The plan was finalised in 2021-2022 and outlined key goals and actions needed to increase income, engagement and sustainability with SMART objectives and financial targets.
Despite the losses in income from services in the first year of Covid-19 pandemic, in 2021 -2022 Tai Pawb had a good financial result owing to: sustaining membership income, securing partnership grant funding and commissions and substantial increase in income from consultancy and training. Income from events has not fully recovered from the impact of Covid-19 and the organisation is exploring options for making this stream more sustainable in future years.
## **Investment policy**
Investments are ruled by policies contained in Tai Pawb finance handbook and the Memorandum and Articles of Association.
## **Reserves policy**
Tai Pawb continues to have a reserves policy and to hold reserves. The organisation's reserves policy aims to mitigate against closure and invests in strategic development costs. The amount of reserves should cover 5 months net operating costs plus closure costs.
The organisation's balance sheet also reflects its liabilities in terms of participation in Social Housing Pension Scheme. The organisation had a sufficient level of designated reserves in accordance with the policy at the end of March 2022. Trustees are closely monitoring the ongoing effect of Social Housing Pension Scheme liabilities and its impact on reserves. Tai Pawb sets aside a designated reserve to reflect the long term, not immediately payable effects of the Social Housing Pension Scheme liability. On a day to day basis it ensures that contributions required to the fund are included within budgets and factored within medium term plans. Likewise it considers the associated risks as part of its ongoing risk management, and receives periodic review by the Board as a specific topic.
Reserves policy is shared and reviewed by the trustees each year ahead of year end to ensure sufficient level and appropriate use of reserves. The policy was last reviewed in February 2021 with a new provision that additional funds may also be designated for setting off actuarial gains against possible future losses on the Social Housing Pension Scheme.
## **Social Housing Pension Scheme**
Following the actuarial valuation which lead to a significant increase in Tai Pawb's share of liabilities as well as past deficit contributions the organisation carried out significant work to plan and off-set any potential future increases.
## This can be summarised as follows:
- Launching affordability appeal with the pension provider, TPT Retirement Solutions, to reduce past service deficit contributions for the following 3 years. Unfortunately, this was rejected based on TPT's assessment of past and future financial data. TPT acknowledged that although the increased level of DRC's are stretching from an affordability perspective, payments continued to be sustainable in the context of Tai Pawb balance sheet and cash reserves.
- Securing services of a financial adviser to help us assess our liability profile and advise on potential options in the context of reducing liabilities
- Conducting a review of our future financial plans and increasing financial targets for our income-generating services.
- Exploring options for future provision of e-learning as a new income-generating service contributing towards offsetting potential future liability increases
- We will be further discussing the above strategies in light of the limited predictability of liability levels which increase or decrease year on year.
## **PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS**
These plans are outlined in our new Strategy 2021-2026. Internally this is supplemented by Work Plan which is developed on an annual basis.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**
## **Risk management**
The board continued to review risk on a quarterly basis with reports on progress and changes to risk register from senior management team who are responsible for the day to day risk management. Risks are split into corporate and practice related risks.
At the end of the financial year Tai Pawb had 15 risks noted in the register with 4 risks terminated in 2021-2022. Residual risk for 4 risks was low, with the remaining 11 risks at medium level score.
Social housing pension scheme related risks (increases in liabilities) was taken out of a set of other finance related risks and established as a standalone risk in April 2022.
## **COVID-19**
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic towards the end of the financial year 2019-2020 presented significant risks to the organisation. Tai Pawb put significant measures in place to protect the charity, it's beneficiaries and staff as reported in trustees report in 2020-2021.
In 2021-2022 the board continued to monitor risks associated with Covid-19 which are part of the risk register. Whilst most of the legislative requirements related to Covid-19 have been terminated, Tai Pawb continued to apply caution in service delivery and workforce arrangements with risks assessed on a regular basis and actions in place to reduce the risks to health and safety.
In the context of financial impacts, Tai Pawb's income from consultancy and training is on it's way to recovery to pre-pandemic levels however impacts are still significant on events income. Tai Pawb has implemented actions and has plans in place with the aim of offsetting this loss of income and putting the organisation on a more sustainable footing which are contained in its Business Plan and Operational plans (as described above). This will also be a considered in the context of review of membership fees and benefits.
As of April 2021 Tai Pawb significantly reduced it's office related expenditure and moved towards a hybrid working model by giving up it's full time office and moving towards a part time arrangement with Care and Repair Cymru.
## **Management**
The Board of Trustees managed members of staff comprising Chief Executive Officer, Head of Business, Head of Policy and Public Affairs, Membership Manager, Membership Officer, Funding and Partnerships Manager, Communications and Marketing Officer, Finance and Administration Officer and Housing Development Manager. CEO works with the oversight of and in partnership with the trustees to support them in the fulfilment of their obligations, in determining and reviewing the organisation's strategic direction and providing assurance on Tai Pawb's activities, governance and risk. Regular contact is maintained with the chair who holds 121 meetings with the director between board meetings.
This is also done in consultation with staff, where the CEO has responsibility for overseeing the operational management of aspects of Tai Pawb together with the Senior Management Team comprising of Head of Business and Head of Policy and Public Affairs.
Throughout 2021-2022 all staff were working via a hybrid model with access to part time office and working from home.
## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES**
The trustees (who are also the directors of Tai Pawb for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland"
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.

## **REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF TAI PAWB**
## **Opinion**
We have audited the financial statements of Tai Pawb (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Statement of Financial Position and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'.
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 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'; and
- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 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 Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company 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 fulfilled 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 relating to going concern**
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 performed, we have not identified 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 concern 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 with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
## **Other information**
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine 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.
## **Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006**
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
- the information given in the Report of the Trustees for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the Report of the Trustees has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Page 9
## **REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF TAI PAWB**
## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception**
In the light of the 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 Report of the Trustees.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
- adequate 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 returns; or
- certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
- the trustees were not entitled to take advantage of the small companies exemption from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report or in preparing the Report of the Trustees.
## **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 financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company'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 trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
## **Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements**
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 a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, 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 extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
Page 10
## **REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF TAI PAWB**
## **Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud**
We identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error, and then, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, including obtaining audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
We discussed our audit independence complying with the Revised Ethical Standard 2019 with the engagement team members whilst planning the audit and continually monitored our independence throughout the process.
## **Identifying and assessing potential risks related to irregularities.**
In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following:
- enquiring of management, including obtaining and reviewing supporting documentation, concerning the Charity's policies and procedures relating to:
- identifying, evaluating and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance;
- detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual. suspected or alleged fraud;
- the internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations;
- discussing among the engagement team how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements and any potential indicators of fraud.
- obtaining an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the Charity operates in, focusing on those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the financial statements or that had a fundamental effect on the operations of the Charity, The key laws and regulations we considered in this context included the UK Companies Act and relevant tax legislation.
## **Audit response to risks identified**
In addition to the above, our procedures to respond to risks identified included the following:
- reviewing the financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with relevant laws and regulations;
- enquiring of management concerning actual and potential litigation and claims; performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud;
- - reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;
- in addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, testing the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments;
- assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias; and
- evaluating the operational rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of operations.
We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.
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.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.

## **TAI PAWB**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## **1. STATUTORY INFORMATION**
Tai Pawb is a charitable company, limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales. The charity's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Reference and Administrative Details page.
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).
## **2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## **Basis of preparing the financial statements and going concern**
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
## **Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty**
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results in the future may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.
## **Estimation Uncertainty**
The charity makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. Management consider their to be no estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
## **Income recognition**
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from government and other grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue' grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
Membership income is recognised when invoices for membership fees are invoiced to the members. For existing members this would be the 1 April, and for new members this would be the date of application.
Training income is recognised when the Charity has entitlement to it which would generally be when the training course has been performed.
Donations are recognised when the Charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that those conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

## **2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued**
## **Expenditure**
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
## **Intangible assets**
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Website costs are being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of 4 years. Computer Software is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of 5 years.
## **Tangible fixed assets**
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Computer equipment - 33% on cost
Cost comprises the purchase price of the asset and expenditure directly attributable to the acquisition of the item.
A fixed asset is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is credited or charged to the income statement.
## **Impairment of fixed assets**
The charity performs impairment testing where there are any indicators of impairment. Impairment is calculated as the difference between the carrying value and the recoverable value of the asset. Recoverable value is the higher of net realisable value and estimated value in use at the date the impairment loss is recognised. Value in use represents the present value of expected future discounted cash flows. If incurred, impairment is recognised immediately in the income statement.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying value of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of the recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying value does not exceed the carrying value that would have been determined if no impairment loss had been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately as a credit to the income statement.
## **Corporation taxation**
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
## **Debtors**
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
## **Cash at bank and in hand**
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
## **Creditors and provisions**
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
## **Fund accounting**
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## **2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued**
## **Fund accounting**
Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees.for particular purposes falling in future time periods.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits**
The charity has obligations to pay pension benefits to certain employees. The pension accounting disclosure for this scheme has changed from a Present Value Approach to a Defined Benefit Approach in this financial year. This is due to sufficient information now available for an employer in SHPS to account for its obligation on a Defined Benefit basis (i.e. stating assets and obligations).
For defined benefit schemes the amounts charged to the Statement of Financial Activities are the current service costs and gains and losses on settlements and curtailments. They are included as part of staff costs. Past service costs are recognised immediately in the Statement of Financial Activities if the benefits have vested. If the benefits have not vested immediately, the costs are recognised over the period until vesting occurs. The interest cost and expected return on assets are shown as a net amount of other finance costs or credits adjacent to interest. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised immediately in the Statement of Financial Activities.
Defined benefit schemes are funded, with the assets of the scheme held separately from those of the charity, in separate trustee administered funds. Pension scheme assets are measured at fair value and liabilities are measured on an actuarial basis using the projected unit method and discounted at a rate equivalent to the current rate of return on a high quality corporate bond of equivalent currency and term to the scheme liabilities. The actuarial valuations are obtained at least triennially and are updated at each balance sheet date. The resulting defined benefit asset or liability, net of the related deferred tax, is presented separately after other net assets on the face of the balance sheet.
## **Operating leases**
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the SOFA on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

The net running costs represent over five months of the charity's expenditure, less membership fees.
Closure costs represent the total expenditure that would be incurred in the event of the charity ceasing to operate. The trustees have no current issues with the going concern of the charity but believe it is prudent to set aside this amount.

Strategic development costs represents the funds set aside to help meet the charity's medium term strategic plan.
Pension scheme costs represents funds set aside to help the charity meet the anticipated future losses in the pension scheme.
## **15. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT OBLIGATIONS**
## **The Pensions Trust - Social Housing Pension Scheme (SHPS)**
SHPS is a multi employer pension schemes which provides benefits to non- associated participating employers. The scheme is classed as a defined benefit scheme in the UK. The scheme is classified as 'last man standing' arrangement. Therefore each employer is liable for other participating employers' obligations if those employers are unable to meet their share of the scheme deficit following withdrawal from the scheme. Participating employers are legally required to meet their share of the scheme deficit on an annuity purchase basis on withdrawal from the scheme.
For financial years ending on or after 31 March 2019 the way in which an employer's Defined Benefit pension obligation in SHPS is stated in its company accounts has changed. Previously there has been insufficient information available for and employer in SHPS to account for its obligations on a Defined Benefit basis (i.e stating assets and obligations). As a result, and as required by FRS 102, employers have been accounting for the obligation by stating the present value of agreed future deficit repayment contributions.
If sufficient information is not available in a multi employer Defined Benefit scheme, as was previously the case, then FRS 102 requires that an employer participating in the scheme should recognise
- a liability for any employer contribution scheduled in the future arising from the scheme's agreed deficit recovery plan and
- The resulting expense in profit or loss.
For financial years ending on or after 31 March 2019, full defined benefit accounting information has been provided (termed 'Defined Benefit Approach'). As a result the approach of reporting the deficit recovery plan contribution (termed 'Present Value Approach') will no longer comply with FRS 102.
FRS 102 requires that an employer participating in a Defined Benefit scheme should recognise: - a liability for its obligations under the scheme net of scheme assets and - the net change in that liability during the accounting period as the cost of the Defined Benefit scheme during the period

The charity has been notified by the Trustee of the Scheme that it has performed a review of the changes made to the Scheme's benefits over the years and the result is that there is uncertainty surrounding some of these changes. The Trustee has been advised to seek clarification from the Court on these items. This process is ongoing and the matter is unlikely to be resolved before the end of 2024 at the earliest. It is recognised that this could potentially impact the value of Scheme liabilities, but until Court directions are received, it is not possible to calculate the impact of this issue, particularly on an individual employer basis, with any accuracy at this time. No adjustment has been made in these financial statements in respect of this potential issue.

The contents of this report relate only to those matters which came to our attention during the conduct of our normal audit procedures which are designed primarily for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and giving a value for money conclusion. Our audit is not designed to test all internal controls or identify all areas of control weakness. The terms and conditions, under which our audit will be performed, including our roles and responsibilities and auditors, are set out in our letters of engagement. These have been issued separately.
However, where, as part of our testing, we identify any control weaknesses, we will report these to you. In consequence, our work cannot be relied upon to disclose defalcations or other irregularities, or to include all possible improvements in internal control that a more extensive special examination might identify. We do not accept any responsibility for any loss occasioned to any third party acting, or refraining from acting on the basis of the content of this report, as this report was not prepared for, nor intended for, any other purpose.
## **Executive Summary**
This report highlights the key issues affecting the results of the Charity and the preparation of the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022. It is also used to report our audit findings to management and those charged with governance in accordance with the requirements of International Standard on Auditing (UK) 260.
We are required to report whether, in our opinion, the Charity’s financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Charity and its income and expenditure for the year and whether they have been properly prepared in accordance with FRS 102.
**----- Start of picture text -----**
Status of our audit We have completed the majority of our audit work. The main items outstanding are:
Finalise profit & loss testing
Final review of post balance sheet events with the board
Audit opinion On the completion of the items outstanding, we expect to issue an unmodified opinion.
Materiality Final materiality has been set at £11,000, using a benchmark of 3% of turnover and taking into consideration total gross assets and other factors such as surplus
for the year. A level of £550 has been set as our clearly trivial level.
Audit risks & other We have no significant items to highlight regarding significant audit risks and other areas of audit focus.
areas of focus
Accounting estimate We have highlighted two key estimates and judgements. We have no issues to report in this area and considered the process of estimation to be appropriate and
and judgements key assumptions to be well balanced for these items.
Internal controls Our audit is not designed to test all internal controls or identify all areas of control weakness. However, where, as part of our testing, we identified any control
weaknesses, we report these.
Our work has not identified any control weaknesses this year.

Executive Summary
1
## **Audit approach**
The auditing findings report presents the observations arising from the audit that are significant to the responsibility of those charged with governance to oversee the financial reporting process, as required by International Standard on Auditing (UK) 260.
As auditor we are responsible for performing the audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK), which is directed towards forming and expressing an opinion on the financial statements that have been prepared by management with the oversight of those charged with governance. The audit of the financial statements does not relieve management or those charged with governance their responsibilities for the preparation of the financial statements.
## **Materiality**
In performing our audit, we apply the concept of materiality, following the requirements of International Standard on Auditing (UK) (ISA) 320: Materiality in planning and performing an audit. The standard states that 'misstatements, including omissions, are considered to be material if they, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial statements.
We determined overall materiality to be £11,000. We have considered whether this level remained appropriate during the course of the audit and have made no changes to our overall materiality.
|**Area**|**Planning materiality**|**Final materiality**|
|---|---|---|
|Overall|£11,000|£11,000|
We also set an amount below which misstatements would be clearly trivial and would not need to be accumulated or reported to those charged with governance because we would not expect that the accumulated effect of such amounts would have a material impact on the financial statements. We have defined the amount below which misstatements would be clearly trivial to be £500.
Audit approach

## **Areas of significant risk**
We raised a number of significant risks in our audit plan where we detailed work we would be carrying out as part of our audit procedures. We performed procedures during the audit to address each of these risks and ensure the financial statements are free from a material misstatement.
|**Risk**|**Overall**
**Risk**
**Factor**|**Work completed, issues & assurance gained**|
|---|---|---|
|**Revenue recognition**
_There is a presumption that revenue recognition is a_
_significant risk on every audit engagement (ISA (UK)_
_240)_|High|We examined and tested the process through which management has identified and quantified income. We also
performed substantive testing on a sample of transactions.
No issues were found in this area. Based on the work undertaken we are satisfied that revenue recognition is not
materially misstated.|
|**Management Override of Controls**
_Management override of controls should be considered_
_a risk on every engagement (ISA (UK&I) 240.74)_|High|During the course of our audit we have undertaken the following procedures:
Considered indication of management bias in accounting estimates and their overall appropriateness.

There are no issues we wish to bring to your attention arising from the procedures undertaken.|
|**Economic fallout due to Covid-19 and restrictions**|High|We reviewed the year end assets for any potential signs of impairment or required provisions as well as future funding

## **Accounting estimates and judgements**
Accounting estimates vary widely in nature and are required to be made by management when the monetary amounts cannot be directly observed. The measurement of these monetary amounts is subject to estimation uncertainty, which reflects inherent limitations in knowledge or data. The process of making accounting estimates involves selecting and applying a method using assumptions and data, which requires judgement by management and can give rise to complexity in measurement. We have outlined below a summary and how we assess the key accounting judgements applied by management.
## Assessment
- We consider the estimate to potentially be materially misstated and disagree with judgements used to derive the estimate or estimation process We consider it unlikely that the estimate is materially misstated, however we consider assumptions used in the estimation process to be optimistic We consider it unlikely that the estimate is materially misstated, however we consider assumptions used in the estimation process to be cautious We consider the process of estimation to be appropriate and key assumptions to be well balanced
|**Key Estimate**|**Assessment**|**Summary of policy**|
|---|---|---|
|Economic life of assets (depreciation)||The estimations of the useful economic life of the charity’s assets and are based on industry standards adjusted to reflect
your own experience. We have no issues surrounding the basis of the estimate and disclosure.|
|Provision and accruals||Management bases its judgements on the circumstances relating to each specific event and upon currently available
information. Accruals have been prepared from invoices after the year end and purchase orders not fulfilled at year end.|
As part of the requirements of ISA (UK) 540 we will require written representations whether the methods, significant assumptions and the data used in making the accounting estimates and the related party disclosures are appropriate to achieve recognition, measurement or disclosure that is in accordance with applicable reporting framework and as such has been included on the draft letter of representation provided.

## **Internal Controls**
The purpose of an audit is to express an opinion on the financial statements. The matters reported here are limited to those deficiencies we have identified during the course of the audit and that we have concluded are of sufficient importance to merit being reported to you.
Our audit included consideration of internal controls relevant to the preparation of the financial statements 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 internal control. We considered and walked through the internal controls for year ended 31 March 2022.
The following control issues were identified during the audit. These control issues are categorised according to the level of risk attached:
Red Significant weaknesses – risk of material misstatement Amber Significant deficiency – risk of significant misstatement Yellow Deficiency – risk of inconsequential misstatement
**Area of control** No control weaknesses were identified during our audit testing this year
**Issue and risk Recommendations Management Response**
## **Follow up of prior year audit recommendations**
The following summarises the progress made to implement recommendations identified in our prior year audit findings reports.

## **Appendix 1 – Auditor independence and objectivity**
Bevan Buckland LLP is required to maintain independence from Tai Pawb in line with the Ethical Standard (2019) issued by the Financial Reporting Council (FRC) and the ethical pronouncements established by the auditor's relevant professional body, in our case the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England & Wales. In addition, our reputation and continued success as a firm depends on us maintaining auditor independence. We have procedures in place to ensure that any conflicts of interest of which we are aware are communicated to directors and appropriate action taken. This includes all relationships between Bevan Buckland LLP and Tai Pawb that, in our professional judgement, may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence and objectivity of the audit engagement partner and the audit staff.
However, there may be factors known by the board of which we are not aware. Our letter of engagement requires the board to notify us if it becomes aware that any person becomes connected with Bevan Buckland LLP and we will be asking the board to give us written representations that there are no such matters at the conclusion of the audit.
Maintaining and assessing our independence is a continual process throughout the audit cycle. However, we will formally confirm our independence and any significant matters we have considered in assessing any threats to our independence and objectivity in our Report to the board.
We have made enquires of all Bevan Buckland LLP teams providing services to you for compliance matters to ensure our independence is maintained.
In our judgement we have complied with the UK regulatory and professional requirements including the Ethical Standard (2019) issued by the FRC. We are not aware of any relationships between Bevan Buckland LLP and the Charity, that in our professional judgement, may reasonably be thought to bear on our integrity, independence and objectivity at the date of the audit plan. As a result we are able to express an objective opinion on the financial statements.
## **Safeguards**
As part of the firms safeguards, all audits are subject to a review by a second partner or independent reviewing officer. The review undertook all high risk areas, significant judgements, financial statements, audit plan and audit findings reports.
