## **RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES** 

The charity's trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year.

In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and

- Make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
