Auditor's rèsponsibilities for thg audit of the financial stat9ments Our objectives are lo obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial stalemonts as a whole are free from material misslalement, whether due to fraud or error, and lo issue an Auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assuran￿ bul is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS {UKI will always delecl a material misslalement when it exists. Misstalemenls can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of L¢sers taken on the basis of these financial 5tatement8. Irregularities. including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respe¢t of irregularities, including fraud. The exlenl to which our procedures are Capable of delecling irregularib'es, including fraud is detailed below. Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detectlng irregularltles, Including fraud. The objectives of our audit in respect of fraud, are lo identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud,. to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material missl8ternenl due to fraud, through designing and implementing appropriate responses to those assessed risks,. and to respond appropriately to instances of fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit. However. the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both management and those charged with governance of the charitable company. Our approach was as follows= We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the charitable company and considered that the most significant are the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2011, the Charity SORP, and UK financial reporting standards as issued by the Financial Reporting Council. We obtalned an understanding of how the charitable company complSes with these requirements by discussions with management and those charged with govemance. We assessed the risk of material misslalement of the financial statements, including the risk of material misstatement due to fraud and how il might occur, by holding discussions with management and those charged with governance. We inquired of management and those charged with governance as to any known InStan￿S of non-compliance or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations. Based on this understanding. we designed specific appropriate audit procedures to identify instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. This included making enquiries of management and those charged with governance and obtaining additional corroborative evidence as required. The notes on pages 9 to 10 form part of these financial statements. High House Enterprises Limited Independent Auditor's Report (Continued) To the Shareholders of High House Enterprises Limited As part of an audit in accordance with ISAS IUKI we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional S￿pIlGIsM throughout the audit. We also.. Identify and assess the risks of material misslaternenl of the financial statements, whether due lo fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive lo those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not delecling a material misslalement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error. as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, inlelllion81 omissions. misrepresentations, or the override of internal eonlrol. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order lo design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company's internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the trustees. Conclude on the appropriateness of the trustees, use of the going Concern basis of 8ccounling and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainly exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubl on the charitable company's ability lo continue as a going concem. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our Auditor's report to the re5aled disclosure5 In the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up lo the dale of our Auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the charitable company to cease to continue as a going concern. Evaluate the overall presentation. structure and eontenl of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a rnanner that achieves fair presentation. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding. among other mallers, the planned scope and liming of the audit and significant audit findings. including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during QLJr audit. Use of our report This report is made solely to the charitable ¢ompany's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006.

Auditor's responsibilltles for the audit of the financlal statements We have been appointed as auditor under the Companies Act 2006 and section 1511 of the Charities A¢t 2011 and report in accordance with those Acts. Our objecliv9s are lo obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as 8 whole are free from material misstatement, whether due lo fraud or error. and lo issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS IUKI will always delect a materi81 misslalemenl when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected lo influence the economi deeisions of users taken on the basis of these financial 51atemenls. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above. lo detect material misslalemenls in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent lo which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below. Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, includlng fraud The objectives of our audit in respect of fraud, are,. to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial slalemenls due lo fraud,. lo obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misslalemenl due lo fraud, through designing and implementing appropriate responses lo those assessed risks,. and lo respond approprialely to instances of fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit. HIGH HOUSE PRODUCTION PARK LIMITED Independent Auditor's Report (Continued) To the Members of High House Production Park Limited However, the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraLJd rests with both management and those charged with governance of the charitable company. Our approach was as follows: We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the charitable company and considered that the most significant are the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2011, the Charity SORP, and UK financial reporting standards as issued by the Financial Reporting Council We obtained an understanding of how the charitable company complies with these requirements by discussions with management and those charged with governance. We assessed the risk of material misstatement of the financial slatemenls, including th8 risk of material misstatement due lo fraud and how il might occur. by holding discussions with management and those charged with governance. We inquired of management and those charged with goveman¢e as to any known instances of non-compliance or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations. Based on this understanding, we designed specific appropriate audit procedures to identify instances of non- OTnpliance with laws and regulations. This included making enquiri65 of management and thos8 charged with govemance and obtaining additional corroborative evidence as required. As part of an audit in accordance with ISAS {UKI we exercise profossional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also.. Identify and assess the risks of material misslatemenl of the financial slatemenls, whether due lo fraud or error. design and perform audit procedures responsive to Ihose risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and 8ppropriale to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error. as fraud may involve collusion. forgery, intentional ornissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Obtsin an understanding of internal control relevant lo the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. bul not for the purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness ol the group and parent charitable company s internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the trustees. Concludg on the appropriateness of the trustees, uso of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audil evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related lo events or conditions that may cast significant doubl on the group and parent charitable company's ability lo continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report lo the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, lo modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on thè audit evidence obtained up lo the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the group or parent charitable company lo cease to continue as a going concern. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements. including the disclosures. and whether the financial slalemenls represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial infomiation of the enlilies or business activities within the group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial slalemenls. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit report. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other rnatters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in inlemal control that we identify during our audit.
