CONSULTANCY
To the Trustees of Wags & Bones Staffie Rescue Support
I have been asked to conduct an independent review of the Trust's financial statements for the year ended 3 1
December 2024. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to support the Charity objectives. The support works
the charity does for these animals is in great need.
I have provided a few details about myself below, including my contact details and would be very happy to discuss
any matters with you in relation to my report.
Please note that I have not conducted an audit in line with UK Auditing Standards, but I did undertake my review in
order to identify any material misstatements or financial irregularities.
Governance and Policy
It is part of the Trustees responsibilrties to ensure the financial statements are presented fairly and to take
reasonable steps to prevent fraud and other irregularities.
As Trustees, you will recognise that the vital work carried out by the charity does involve working with people in the
community and animal welfare.
Through review of the Charity Annual Review and telephone discussion understanding the Objectives and Activities
of the Charity, I have not seen or heard anything that concerns me regarding charity governance and policy.
Review work
I have reviewed the annual report including the receipts and payments accounts to understand how the charity
operates.
I have received copies of bank statements and the end of yearbank account Is reconciled to the financial statements.
In respect of the items of income and expenditure, I have received an explanation as to whatthese are for. There are
currently 7 Trustees in post assumed to authorise/agree on where to allocate financial support. Funds are
unrestricted and can be allocated to any/all activities.
Finally, I have reviewed the receipts and payments account as the draft accounts.
