The Charity constituted by Trust Deed dated on 13[th] July 2015 and was registered on 13[th] July 2015.

## **Reserves Policy** 

The Trustees retain reserves as necessary and where appropriate, consolidate funds in order to make more substantial grants which they feel to be appropriate. 

## **Responsibilities of the Trustees** 

Charity Law 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 Charity as at the Balance sheet date, and of its incoming resources, including income and expenditure for the financial year. 

In preparing those financial statements the Trustees should follow best practice and; 

- a. Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently 

- b. Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent 

- c. Follow applicable accounting standards and the Charities SORP 2015, disclosing and explaining any departures in the financial statements 

- d. Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the charity will continue in operation. 

The Trustees are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity, and to enable them as Trustees to ensure that the Financial Statements comply with Charity Law. 

The Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the charity’s assets and hence for taking reasonable steps for the detection of fraud and other irregularities.

We report on the financial statements of The Yonah Trust for the Year Ending 31 March 2021. 

## **Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Reporting Accountants** 

The Trustees of the charity are responsible for the preparation of the accounts, and they consider the audit requirement of section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (The Act) does not apply. It is our responsibility to state, on the basis of the procedures specified in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 249 of the Act, whether particular matters have come to our attention. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiners Report** 

Our Examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. 

An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as the trustees concerning any such matters. 

These procedures provide only the assurance expressed in our opinion. 

The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently we do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. 

## **Opinion** 

In our opinion, no matter has come to our attention; 

- 1) Which gives us reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements 

   - a) To keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the act, and 

   - b) To prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or 

- 2) To which, in our opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable understanding of the accounts to be reached.
