Report of the Independent Audltors to the Trustees of Going for Bust Other Informatlon The trustees and directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual reporL other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements. our resFK)nslbllity is to read the other Information and, in doin8 so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent wlth the financial statements or our knowled8e obtalned in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially mlsstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there 15 a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responslbllltles of trustees As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charltable company for the purposes of company lawl are responsible for the preparation of the f inancial statements and for being Satisf led that they give a true and fair view, and for such Internal control as the trustees determlne Is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free f rom material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparlng the flnancial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessln8 the group and parent charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the 8oin8 concern basis of accountin8 unless the trustee5 either intend to liquidate the group and parent charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do $0. Our responslbllltles for the audlt of the flnandal statements Our oblectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement5 as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to Issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a gLJarantee that an audlt conducted in accordance with ISAS {UKI will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the econom￿ decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Report of the Independent Audltors to the Trustees of Golng for 8ust The extent to which our pro¢edures are capable of detecting Irre8ularities, including fraud is detailed below.. We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the 8roup and the sector in which they operate. We obtained an understandin8 of how the group are complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks by making enquires of mana8ement We assessed the susceptibllity of the group's financial statements to material misstatement. including how fraud might occur. Audlt procedures performed by the engagement team included.. Identifyin8 and assessin8 the desi8n effectiveness of controls management has in place to prevent and detect fraud Understanding how those charged with 8overnance considered and addressed the potential for overrlde of controls or other inappropriate influence over the financial reportin8 process Challen8lng assumptlons and ludgments made by management in its accounting estimates Identifyin8 and testin8 journal entries, in particular any journal entries posted with unusual account combinations: and Assessin8 the extent of compliance with the relevant law and re8ulations. Because of the Inherent Ilmltatlons of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irre8ularitles. including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with re8ulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulatlon Is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statemenls. as we wlll be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk Is also greater re8arding irregularlties occurrin8 due to fraud rather than error. as fraud involves intentional concealment. forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation. Use of our report This report is made solely to the group and charitable company. Our audlt work has been undertaken 50 that we might state lo the group and charitable company those matters we are requlred to state to them in an auditors, report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or a55ume responsibility to anyone other than the 8roup and charitable company as a body. for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. l M Rodd BSC FCA FCCA {Senior Statutory Auditor) For and on behalf of Ward Goodman Audit Services Ltd Re8iStered Auditor 4 Cedar Park Cobham Road Ferndown Industrial Estate Wimborne Dorset BH2175F Date.. kLy io
