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 judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent.
-
c. Follow applicable accounting standards and the Charities SORP, disclosing and explaining any departures in the financial statements.

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