2.2 It is not sufficient for us as auditors to conclude that the financial
statements
give a true and
fair view solely on the basis that the financial
statements
were prepared
in accordance
with
accounting
standards
and any other applicable
legal requirements.
We are therefore
required
to consider whether
additional
disclosure
will be necessary
in the financia statements
when
compliance
with an accounting
standard
is insufficient to give a true and fair view. Ifyou are
unwilling
to make such additional
disclosures,
we will have to consider the effect on our
report.
2.3 Our report
will be made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body,
in accordance
with
Regulations
made under ChA 2011~s.154.Our audit work will be undertaken
so that we
might state to the charity's trustees those matters we are required
to state to them
in an
auditor's
report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted
by law, we wiII not
accept or assume
responsibility
to anyone other than the charity and the charity's trustees
as
a body, for our audit work, for the audit report, or for the opinions we form. The audit ofthe
financial
statements
does not relieve you of your responsibilities.
2.4 There are certain other matters,
which according
to the circumstances
may need to be dealt
with in our report, for example
non-compliance
with a requirement
ofRegulations
to be made
under the ChA 2011.Although
only auditors
of listed companies
are required
to include
key
audit matters
in their report, there may be rare occasions when we believe
it necessary
to
communicate
key audit matters
in our report.
2.5 Under ChA 2011,s. 156(2)we have a statutory
duty to make a written
report to the Charity
Commission
on such matters
(which relates to the activities or affairs of the charity or of any
connected
institution
or body) ofwhich we become aware during the course ofour audit and
which we have reasonable
cause to believe is likely to be of material
significance
for the
purposes
ofthe exercise by the Commission
of its functions
under ChA 2011,s. 156(3).In
addition
under s. 156(4) ifwe become aware of any matter which does not require to be
reported
under s. 156(2)but which we have reasonable
cause to believe is likely to be
relevant for the purposes ofthe exercise by the Charity Commission
of any ofits functions
then we may make a report on the matter to the Commission.
We may have to make this
report without
your knowledge
and consent and we cannot undertake
to you to fetter this
discretion
in any manner,
2.6 In addition,
we have a professional
duty to report ifthe financial statements
do not comply
in
any material
respect with applicable
accounting
standards
unless
in our opinion
non-
cornpliance
is justified
in the circumstances.
In determining
whether or not any departure
is
justified we will consider:
(a)
whether the departure
is required
in order for the financial
statements
to give a true
and fair view; and
(b)
whether
adequate
disclosure has been made concerning
the departure.
2.7 Our professional
duties also include:
(a)
incorporating
in our report a descripfion
ofthe trustees'
responsibilities
for the
financial statements,
where the financial statements
or accompanying
information
do
not include such description;
and
(b)
considering
whether other information
in documentation
containing
the financial
statements
is consistent
with the audited
financial
statements
and our knowledge
acquired
during
the course ofthe audit.
2.8 Under the Charities
(Accounts and Reports) Regulations
2008 (Sl 2008/629), you are
required
to report as to whether
you have given consideration
to the major risks to which the
charity is exposed, and to the systems designed
to mitigate those risks. Compliance
with
the
Charities SORP requires
you to confirm that those risks have been reviewed
and that
systems have been established
to mitigate those risks. We are not required
to audit this
statement,
or to form an opinion
on the effectiveness
ofthe risk management
and control
procedures.

2.9 Where the charity is a subsidiary
ofa charitable
group, the audited
financial statements
of
this
charity are included
in the group financial
statements
ofthe parent. We are required
by
auditing
standards
to cooperate
with the auditors ofthe parent and to provide them with
representations
and confiirmations
concerning
the conduct ofthe audit ofthis charity. You
agree that we may correspond
with the auditors ofthe parent and respond to their reasonable
requests for information
(which may include granting
them access to our working
papers)
concerning
the preparation
and audit ofthe group financial
statements
without
further
authority
from you,
2.10 Where the charity is the parent ofa group and all components
are audited
by the same firm,
the audited
financial
statements
ofthis charity are the group financial
statements.
As the
group engagement
auditors,
we are required
by auditing
standards
to coordinate
the audit
work on all subsidiary
companies.
Therefore, whilst as auditors ofeach subsidiary
company
the firm already has access to the management
ofthose companies
concerning
their
individual
audited
financial statements,
you agree that we may also correspond
with the
management
ofthe subsidiary
companies
and request reasonable
information
concerning
the
preparation
and audit ofthe group financial
statements
without further
authority
from you.
2.11 Where the charity is the parent ofa group and not all component
auditors are from the same
firm, the audited
financial
statements
ofthis charity are the group financial statements.
As
the
group engagement
auditors,
we are required
by auditing
standards
to coordinate
the work
of
the auditors ofthe subsidiary
companies
and to provide them with guidance
concerning
the
conduct ofthe audit ofthe group. You agree that we may correspond
with the management
of
the subsidiary
companies,
and their auditors,
and request reasonable
information
(which may
include access to the subsidiary
auditor's
working
papers) concerning
the preparation
and
audit ofthe group financial statements
without further
authority
from you.
2.12 We will inform you of all significant facts that may bear upon our integrity,
objectivity and
independence.
Scope ofaudit
2.13 Our audit will be conducted
in accordance
with the ISAs (UK) issued by the Financial
Reporting
Council (FRC).An audit invoives obtaining
evidence about the amounts
and
disclosures
in the financial statements
sufficient to give reasonable
assurance
that the
financial
statements
are free from material
misstatement,
whether caused by fraud or error.
We will evaluate
whether the information
presented
in the financial statements
is relevant,
reliable, comparable
and understandable
as well as providing
adequate
disclosures
and
appropriate
terminology.
This includes an assessment
of:
~
whether
the accounting
policies are appropriate
to the chanty's circumstances
and have
been consistently
applied
and adequately
disclosed;
~
the reasonableness
ofsignificant
accounting
estimates
made by the trustees;
~
whether
there is adequate
disclosure
ofthe applicable
financial
reporting
framework;
and
~
the overall presentation
ofthe financial statements,
In addition,
we read all the financial
and non-financial
information
in the Trustees'
Annual
Report to identify
material
inconsistencies
with the audited
financial statements
and to identify
any information
that is apparently
materially
incorrect based on, or materially
inconsistent
with, the knowledge
acquired
by us in the course of performing
the audit. Ifwe become aware
of any apparent
material
misstatements
or inconsistencies
we consider the implications
for
our report.
2.14 Because ofthe test nature and other inherent
limitations
ofan audit, together
with the
inherent
limitations
of any accounting
and internal
control system, there is an unavoidable
risk
that even some material
misstatements
may remain
undiscovered
even though the audit is
properly
planned
and performed
in accordance
with ISAs (UK).
2.15 We will obtain an understanding
ofthe accounting
and internal
control systems
in order to
assess their adequacy as a basis for the preparation
ofthe financial
statements
and to
establish
whether
the charity has maintained
sufficient accounting
records. We will need to

obtain relevant
and reliable evidence
sufficient to enable us to draw reasonable
conclusions
therefrom.
2.16 The nature and extent ofour tests will vary according to our assessment
ofthe charity's
accounting
and internal
control systems,
and may cover any aspects ofthe business's
operations. We shall report to the management
any significant
deficiencies
in, or observations
on, the charity's systems
that come to our attention
ofwhich we believe the trustees
should
be made aware. Any such report may not be provided
to any third party without our prior
written consent. Such consent
will only be granted
on the basis that such reports are not
prepared
with the interests ofany party other than the members
in mind and that we therefore
neither have nor accept any duty or responsibility
to any other party as concerns the reports.
2.17 In performing
our audit procedures,
we may make use ofanalytical
tools. To facilitate this, we
may request that you extract data, provide back-ups
or provide alternative
access to your
accounting
systems.
How we will use analytical
tools and any data provided
will be set out in
the communication
ofour planned
approach.
2.18 As noted
in section 1,the responsibility
for safeguarding
the assets ofthe charity and for the
prevention
and detection of fraud, error and non-compliance
with law or regulations
rests with
the trustees.
However,
we will plan our audit so that we have a reasonable
expectation
of
detecting
material
misstatements
in the financial statements
resulting
from irregularities,
fraud
or non-compliance
with law or regulations,
but our examination
should
not be relied upon to
disclose all such material
misstatements
or frauds, errors or instances ofnon-compliance
that
might exist.
2.19 As part of our normal
audit procedures,
we will request you to provide formal representations
concerning
certain information
and explanations
we receive from you during
the course ofour
audit,
In particular,
where we bring to your attention
misstatements
in the financial statements
which are not adjusted,
we shall require
written
representation
ofyour reasons.
2.20 To enable us to conduct a review of your financial statements,
which constitutes
part ofour
audit, we will request
sight ofany documents
or statements
which
will be issued with the
financial statements.
2.21 Once we have issued our report we will have no further direct responsibility
in relation to the
financial
statements
for that financial year. However, as noted
in section 1,we expect that you
will inform us of any material
event occurring between
the date ofour report and that ofthe
annual
general
meeting,
which may affect the financial statements.
2,22 A fuller description
ofthe scope ofan audit offinancial statements
arising from the
requirements
of ISAs (UK), together
with other legal and regulatory
requirements,
is provided
on the Financial
Reporting
Councii's website at
.frc.or .uk/auditorsres
onsibilities.
Communlcatlon
2.23 In order to ensure that there is effective two-way
communication
between
us we set out below
the expected form and timing ofsuch communications.
~
We shall contact your primary contact listed
in Key Facts by telephone
prior to each year-
end for preliminary
discussions
concerning
the audit. We will confirm
in writing the matters
discussed
and any agreed action.
~
We will arrange a meeting
to discuss the forthcoming
audit prior to the expected start date.
Again we will conflrin
in writing
the matters discussed
and any agreed action.
~
We will arrange a meeting to discuss any matters
arising from the audit after completion
of
the detailed
work. Again we will confirm
in writing
the matters discussed
and any agreed
action.
2.24 The formal communications
set out above are the minimum
required
to comply with auditing
standards.
We shall ofcourse contact you on a more frequent
and regular basis regarding
both audit and other matters.
2.25 We shall not be treated as having
notice, for the purposes ofour audit responsibilities,
of
information
provided to members
ofour firm (principals
and staff) other than those engaged
