Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities
The Charities Act requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Organisation and of the surplus or deficit of the organisation for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are requested to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
Make judgements and estimates that 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;
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Organisation will continue in operation.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records, which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Organisation and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Organisation and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Accountants
The accountants, Messrs. JSA & Associates, have expressed their willingness to stay in office.
