The Trustees present our report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022
Statement of Trustee's Responsibilities
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. In preparing the financial statements the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charity Commission. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
