Taskforce
For the year ended 31 March 2023
We assessed the sus￿Ptibl1lty of the Chartrfs finanaal statements to material misstatement. induding
obtaining an understsndin8 of how fraud might occur. by:
makin8 enqLtiri•s of rnanagemtntas to where they considered there was a susceptibility to fraud, their
knowled8e of actual. wspected and alleged fraud; and
considering the internal tontrols in place to miti8ate risks Of fra(Kl and non-compliance wlth laws and
re8ulations.
To address the risk offraud through management bias and trltrride of controls. we:
• performed anal￿1¢41 procedure5 to identify any unusual or unexpected relationship5.'
tested journal entrie5 to identify unusual transaction5.' and
assessed whetherjud8ernents 3nd assumptions made in determinin8the accountin8 estimates set out
in the accountin8 polioes were indicative of potential bia5.
In response to the risk of irre8ularitles arrfj nOn￿mplIanCe with kws and re8uLitions, we desi8ned Pro￿dureS
which included, but not limited to:
agreeing finantial statement disclosuresto underfwng SUPPDrting docum*ntation,'
+ revfjewing the minutes of Trustees, ffleetings."
enquirin8 of mana8ement as to attual ar*d potenttal liti8ation and daims.
There are inherent lirnitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and
re8ulation5 are from financial transactions. the less Itkely it is that we would become aware of non-tompliance.
Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws antl ￿8￿LationS
to enquiry of the trustees and other mana8ement and the Inspect￿ of regulatory and legal correspondence, if
any.
Material mi5Statements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they
may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.

Taskforce has sufficient income by way of 8rants antl donations. from a variety gf entitie5 which secures
their funding for at least the next twelve months from the dats of approval of the finandal statements

of funding and without any cofitinuation of this funding. In both cases the forecast indicate5 that the
Charity has sufficient zcojmulated reserves to tontinue with its core artivities throughout 2024 albeit
after rnakin8 suitable adjustments to its operatin8 Cost base. The Trustees hwe reviewed the cash flow
projerts for the forecast period and the tharity has suffioent cash at bank to meet its liabilities as they
fall due.
The Trustee5 znd mana8¢rnent continue to work to secure medium. and lon8er-term funding, where

The estimates and undertwn8 assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basb5. Revisions to accountin8
