the then HCA that it met the Governance and Flnancial Viability Standard. The Board assess their

that might affect compliance. The Board seek assurance that they contlnue to cornp￿ wlth the
Standard viè management self-assessment. An updated 2024125 management self-assessment was
completed in earty 2025. This identifled some mlnor controls that had slipped durlng the 2024125 year
due to internal staff resource issues, but a short artlon plan was agreed with the Board and all core

Chartlord Housln8 Limited
Audttorfs resp￿51b111tles for the audit ol the flnan¢lal statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as
whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to ffaud or error, and to issue an auditoes
report that include5 our oplnion. Reasonable assurance Is a high level of a55urance, but is not a
guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS IUKI will always detect a materlal
mls5tatement when It exlsts.
Mlsstatements can arlse from fraud or error and are considered materlal ff, Indivldually or in the
aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economlc decisions of users tiken on
the basls of these financial statements.
Irregularltles, Includin8 fraud, are instances of non-compllance wlth laws and regulations. We design
Pro￿duleS In Ilne with our responsbbilitles, outlined above, to detect material misstatements In
respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of
detecting irregularltles, Including fraud is detailed below..
We Identlfled and asse55ed the risks of materlal mlsst?tement of the financial statements from
Irregularltles, whether due to fraud or error, and dlscussed these between our audlt team members.
We then deSiBned and performed audlt procedures responslve to those risks, Includlng obtalnlng
audlt evidence sufflclent and appropriate to provlde a ba515 for our opinion.
We obtalned an understandln8 of the legal and re8Lblatory frameworks within whlch the charltable
company operates, focuslng on those laws and regulatlons that have a dSrect effect on the
determination of material amounts and dlsclosures in the financial Statements such as the Housln8
Regeneratlon Act 2￿8 and other laws and regulatlons appllcatlon to a re8lStered soclal housin8
provider in England together wlth the Housln8 SORP. We assessed the required cornpliance wlth
these laws and regulation5 as part of our audlt procedures on the related financial 5taternents Items,
In addltlon, we con51dered provlslons of other laws and regulatlons that do not have a dlrect effect
on the financial statement5 but compliance wilh whl¢h might be fundamental to the charltvs ablllty
to operate or to the charity for fiaud. The laws and re8ulatSons we con51dered In this context for the
UK operations were requirements Imposed by the Re8ulator of Soclal houslng, health and safety,
taxation and employment legislation. Auiiitin8 Standards Ilmlt the required audit protedures to
Identlfy non-compllance wlth these laws and regulatlons to enqulry of the Olrectors and other
management and inspection of re8ulatory and legal correspondence, If any.
We Identlfled the gre?test rlsk of materlal Impact on the flnanclal statements from Irre8ulafltles,
Including Iraud, to be withln the tlmlng of reco8nitlon of income and the override of controls bv
management. Our audlt procedure5 to respond to these rlsks included enqulrSes of management,
iniernal audit and the Audlt and Risk Committee about their own identification and assessment of
the rlsks of IrregularStSes, sample testlng on the postln8 of IouTTha15, reviewing accountin8 estimates
for biases, reviewing regulatory correspondence, designing audlt procedure5 over the timlng of
Income and reading minute5 of meetin8s of those charged whh governance.
Owlng to the Inherent Ilmlt3tions of an audit, there 15 an unavoidable rlsk that we may not have
detected some material misstatements In the flnancial statements, even though we have property
planned and performed our oudit in accordance with auditing standards. In addltion, as with any
audit, there remalned a higher rlsk of non-detection of irregularities, as these may involve collusion,
forgery, intentional omissions, MIS￿presentatIOns, or the override of internal controls. We are not
responsible for preventing non-compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-complianre with
all law5 and regulations.
