Our objective5 are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements a5 a whole are free from material misstatement. whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor'5 report that includes our opinion. Reasonable a￿uranCe is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordan￿ wlth ISA'5 IUKI will always dÈtert a material mi$5taternent when kt exlsts. Misstatements arise from fraud or error and are considered material if. individually or in the aggregate. they could reasonably be expected to influence the economir éecisions Df users taken on the basis of these financial statements. THE EKtENTTO WHICH OUR PROCEDURES ARE CAPABLE OF DEfE￿ING IRREGULARITIES, INCLUDING FRAUD. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non<0mplian￿ with laws and regulations. The primary responsibility for the preventlon and detection of irregularities indudirtgfraud rests with both the rnanagernent and those charged wilh governance of the charlty. We design procedures in Ilne wtth our respDn5ibilities, outlined above. to detect misstaternents Én re5pert of irregularities, induding fraud. We have considered the nalure of the industry and se￿01, control envlronment, laws and regulations and business performance of Ihe charily. Laws and regulations considered include(l. but We￿ not Ilmlted to the Charities Act 2011, FRS102. Charity SORP and UK taxation legislation. We have enquired with the managernent In regard5 to their own assessment of the ri5k5 of Irre4ularltles, includlng fraud. We a150 enquired of management and those charged with governan￿ as to any known in5tance5 of non-compliance or suspected non-tompliance wtth laws and regulations. We obtained relevant documentation and representations in order to form an opinion on potential irregulaTltie5, including fraud. We consideted the opportunitie5 and incentives that may exist within the organi5ation for fvud. Based on this understanéin& we designed 5peufic audtt procedures to identify instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations, including obtaining additional corroborative ewdence as required. Exarrples of procedures included re￿ewing large and unusual transactions. reviewing laoe and unexpected variances, reviewing journal entrie5 and rewewing relevant legal correspondence.

Therefore, there is a risk we will not detect all irreEularities including those leading to 3 material misstatement in the financial ststement5 or non-compliance with regulations. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud 15 also higher than the risk of not ￿￿eCtin8 one from error. as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery, collusion, (smi&5ion or Intentional misrepresentation.
