Trustees' responsibilities
The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the accounts in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare accounts for each fi nancial year in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting standards and applicable regulations). Under that law the trustees must not approve the accounts unless they are satis fi ed that they give a true and fair view of the state of a ff airs of the charity and of the income and expenditure of the trustees for that year.
In preparing the accounts, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the accounts; and
-
prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which are su ffi cient to show and explain the trustees' transcations and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the fi nancial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Charities Act 2011, the relevant Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the charity's governing document. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
