Jiidiiclioii oiidirNliiliig of iriislees
Itiduction is carried out by the Chair providing details of the CIO con5tituiion, Ininutes of Iroent meetings. annual
accounts and any other salient infoiynaiion.
Fin2nel81 revlew
The other inv¢stinents, in common with Inany other investment funds, have iiot p¢rforJned as well over tjie last couple
of years as they did initially. The incitase in valuation. as shown in ihe Statemeni of Financial Activities wa5 £21,895
coinpared to a dcciea5e of £73.679 in the prior yeai..
Similarly the revaluation of the inve5tmcnt property portfolio indicates no real inciease in value ovei. the last five years.
Tl)i5 is due to Iiiarket conditions, particularly in relation to Commei'cial pi'operty. Th¢ effect of tlie revaluation of the
investment propertie5 was a decrease in value of £l.186,31 l. as shown in the Statem¢nt of Financial Activities.
Prior to the property valuaiion in 2023, the value recorded in the balance sheet had increased approxiinately £1.31n,
l(Irg¢ly due lo capital works coinpleted on tlie school building in receni years which was fjnanced by giants froin the
Condition Iinprovement Fund. The impgiriknertt in the prior yeaT related to the swiininiiig pool being deiiiolished.
Trustees are aware of the volatile Inarket 2nd have discussed othcr possible options. It wag decided. that in the coming
yeai., after the investinent property portfolio revaluation details became available, a ¢oii)parison between the relative
peTfoTmance of the property POrtfLilio and the other investinents would be cai'ried out PTior to any Possible realigninent.
Trustee5 recognised the Reed for a risk assessment prior to any aCtI￿n and a full IEvi¢w of all investinent options
ayailable will take pla¢¢.
Polley oil reserves
The mixture of tangible assets and stock mai'kei investments give5 8 broad spread and reduces the risk to assets held in
trust.
£400,000 was invested in October 2019 with St James Place at 8 'low Inediuin, level of risk. The risk profile has been
slightly inci'eased and funds Inoved into ihe Strategic Gi'owtli fund. A funher Irview of the risk profile is to take place
in the 2024 financial year.
It was agreed that a furthei. £IOO,000 sliould be moved from the Bartlays Bank accounts to the CCLA Investment to
obtain a higher rate of return. These fund5 were Iransferred in July and Aiigust 2023.
ITI the present uncertain econoinic climate it is felt to be sensible to retain the investment in property to produce a net
investtment retum siimilar io that offeied throiigli traditional investment routes and coniributing to the 5prcad of
investments. Woodliead5, Ihe new InanJgiiig agents, have uiidertaken a review of the suitability of individual pi'opcrties
as part of the Foundation poi'Lfolio and repoil that all appear suitable.
Trustees aim to hold a miniinuin of one years, rental incoine Én cash to allow for unforeseen circuinstances. There is no
boTrowing.
A Financial Manageinent Policy and Reserves Policy wei'e adopted 2021.
An annual budget 15 developed in conjunction with Watson Biickle and quarterly reviews of financial perfoiinance are
received and reviewed.

All properties were revalued diiring 2023.
All properties are as well maintained as possible, given the age of some of them. and every effort is made to ensure that
the portfolio 15 fully let on an ongoing basis at in0rf(et i'ates.
The Foundation also owns Bingley Gramjtydr School.
Risks and uncerlainties
The impact of the global pandemic had an impact on the perfoi'inance of the a5S¢ts l)eld by the Foundation both property
and investment but all values recovei'ed well.
The on going econoinic uncertainty has had an iinpact on the value of soili¢ assets but the long terin iinplications are
diffscult to quontify.
Investsment accounts al'e held thi'ough St. James Place, Black Rock and CCLA.
These aTe long term investinents and there is no requireinent to access these fund5 during ihe current period of financial
volatility.
The Imajoi'ity of the tangible asset portfolio is comprised of a 2nix of coininercial and residential properties. These ai
clearly long ierin investinents and agaim th¢Te is no requireinenl lo liquidale asset5.
The suitabiliiy of ihe properties wliich ¢omprise the portfolio Iiave been I'eviewed by the new t]ianaging agents and are
felt to ¢oiiliniie io be appi'opric21e.
It is iiot felt that thei'e is any foreseeable threai to Ilie abili¢y of the Fovndation to contiiiue to meet its financial
coiiirnibi)enis. as sufficient fuiids are Inaintained on curreiit and deposit accounts with Barclay5 Bank.

Matter5 on which we are required to report by exception
We have notliing to report in i'espect of ihe following InatteKs in relation to wliich the Charities (Accounts and Reports)
Regulations 2008 require us to repoit to yoii if, in our opinion..
the infoi'iMation given in the trustees, i'epoil is inconsistent in any InateTial r¢spect with the financial stateinents. or
sufficient accounting records have not been kept. or
the financial staleinents are not in akyi'eement with the actounting records. or
we have nol Irceived all the inforination and explanations we iequire for our aiidit.
Responsibilities of trustee5
As explained more fully in the Stateineiit of Tti]stees' Rcsponsibilities (set out on page 6). the trustees aT¢ responsible
for the preparation of the financial statemeiits and foi. being satisfied thai they give a ti'ue and fair view, and foi. such
internal ¢onti'ol as the trusiees deterinine is necessary to enable the preparaiion of financial stateinents that are fiee froin
Inaterial misstatement, whether due to fiaud or error.
In prewdring the financial staleinent5, th¢ trust¢es are responsible for assessing tlie charity's ability lo continue as a
going conLeYn, disclosing, as applicable, matt¢r5 related to b7oing coiicern and usiiig the going cot]cein basis of
accounling unless the trustees eidier intend to liquidate the chaiity Ol. to cease operalioi)s, or have no realistic alternative
but to do so.
Auditor Responsibilities for the audit of the finaneial statement$
Oui. obj¢otives are to obtain reasonable assul'ance about whether the fii)ancial statements as a whole are free fToin
Imaterial mi55tateJneni, whether due to fraud or ¢i'ror, and to i$5ue an auditor's report tl)at includes our opinioii.
Rea50nable a55ul.ance is a high level of assuiance, bul is not a guai"antee that an audit coiidu¢ted in ac¢ordance with
ISA5 (UK) will tilways detect a Inaterial misstateinent when 51 exists. Mi55tateinents can arise fi'oin fraud or error and
are consideied material if, individually oi. in the aggregale, they coiild reasonably be expected to influence the econoJni¢
de¢i5ions of users taken on the basis of these fiiian¢ial stateinents.
II'iEgularitie5, ineluding fraud. are instance5 of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures iji liiie
with our respoiisibilities, outlined above, lo detect matei'ial mhsstaleineiits in respeci of irregulai'ities, including fi'aud.15
The extent to whi¢h our procedures are capable ofdetecting irregulai'ities, including fraud is detailed below.
In planning gnd designing our audit tests, we identify and as5es5 the I'isk5 of Inatei'ial Inisstatement within tli¢ fJnai)cial
stateinents, wliether due to fraud or ei'iDr. Our as5essinei)t of these I'isks incliides coiisideration of tlie nature of the
industry and s¢¢toi', the control environinent and the busin¢s5 pei.foniiance along with the results of oui. enquiries of
Inanageinent, about their own identification aiid assessinent of Il)e Tisks of inrgularities. We air also required to
pei'foi'in specific procediires io i'espond to tlie risk of Inan3gein¢nt override.
Following this a5segsimenl we considered Ilie oppoituiiities and incentive5 that Inay exist within the company for fraud
and identified th¢ greatest potential for fraud evaluating tlie cash and bank baldnces aiid fixed assets.
We also obtained an undei'standing of the legal and Irgulatory frainework5 that the company operates in, through
discussions with tl'U5t¢es and other Inaiiageinenl, and froin oui. coiminei'cial knowled¥e aiid experiei)ce of the sector in
which the ¢oinpany operates, lo enable us to idet)tify the key laws and regulations applicable to th¢ ¢oinpany. We
focused on 5peLific Idws and iegulatiojis which we considered Imay have a diiect Inaterial effect on tlic fiiiancial
stateinents or the opei'atioiis of the coiiipany, includilig the Charities Act 2011, tlie Companies Act 2006, taxation
legislatio￿, data pyotection. anti-bribery, einpj0yi￿¢nt, enviix)ninental at)d health and safety legislation.

We then perfonned audit proceduies after coiisideration of the above risks which included the following..
docuinejitiiig and assessing thc iiiternal tonirols over ¢ash and bank balances.
pei'forn)ing tests of d¢tail on the cash and bank balances and reconciliations.
evaluating the existence, ownei'ship. and valuatitsn of the fixed as5¢ts investinent properties-
evaluating the ownership and valuation of rhe fixed asset investment poitfolio.,
enquiring of Inanageinent concerning actual and potential litigation and claims-
revieMng corresponden¢e with The Charity Commission and the chai'ity's leg31 advisors.
pei.fonning analNical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that inay indicate risks of
maierial mis5tatemeni due to fraud.,
reading Iminutes of meetings of those cl)arged with governance,. and;
in addYe5sing the I'isk of fraud through management override of contro15, testing the appropriat¢n¢5s OF journal
entries and other adjustinents, assessing whether tlie judgeinents Inade in making acLounting estiinates are indie<itive
of a potential bias., and evaluating the business rationale of any significant transacti()ns tha( are uilusual or outside
the norinal coiirse of business.
All engageit)ent team Ineinb¢rs were informed of th¢ relevant laws and IEgul8tioiis and potei)tial fraud risks at the
planning stage and reminded to remain alert to any indications of fraud or non-coinpliance with laws and regulations
throughout the audit. The ei)gagcinent pa11ner ensvT¢d thai the engagement t¢ain collectively had tlie appropriate
comp¢t¢nce, capabilities and skills to ideniify such ilem5.
l-here aiE inherent liinitations in our audit procedure5 described above. Th¢ nioi'e reinoved that laws and iEgulations are
froin finaiicial transactions, tht lesg likely it is that we would becoine aware of non-coinpliance. Auditing standards also
limit th¢ aiidit procedures requii'ed to ideniify non-coinpliance with laws and Tegulations to enquiry of the directors and
other management and the inspection of regul&tory and l¢gal correspondence, if any.
Material misstatements that arise due to fraud call b¢ harder to detect than those that arise from error as ihey Inay
involve deliberate concealment oi. eollusion.
