TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 (continued)

4. Reserves

The charity holds reserves in order to ensure it is well placed to meet challenges that may arise in the future. The trustees consider reserves to be adequate.

5. Trustees' responsibilities in relation to the annual report

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

Law applicable to charitable companies in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare a Trustees' Report, and financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity's financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing financial statements giving a true and fair view, the Trustees should follow best practice and;

• select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

• observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

• make judgements and estimates which are reasonable and prudent;

• state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and

• prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose, with reasonable accuracy, the financial position of the charity and which enables it to ensure that the financial statements comply with the applicable law in England and Wales. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

In determining how amounts are presented within the statement of financial activities and balance sheet, the Trustees have had regard to the substance of the reported transaction or arrangement, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or practice.
