TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
COMPLIANCE WITH THE CHARITY’S GOVERNING DOCUMENT AND CURRENT STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Governing Document of the Charity and with current statutory requirements.
STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES
The Charities Act 2011 requires the trustees to prepare for each financial year financial statements which give a true and fair view of the charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the year end. In preparing the financial statements the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charity Commission guidelines for the preparation of accounts using the Receipts and Payments basis
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
-
adopt the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue on that basis.
The trustees are responsible for ensuring proper accounting records are kept which disclose, with reasonable accuracy at any time, the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Trust Deed and the disclosure regulations. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of error, fraud and other irregularities.
