Pagg 8 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS. REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE HADLEY PROJECTS FUND (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST klARCH 2025 Extsnt to which the audit was considered capable of dotoctlng Irrigularitio4 including fraud Irregularrties, including fraud, are InStarK of non•compliance wtth faws and regulations. We identified and assessed the risks of material mjsststement of the financial statements from irregularittes, whether due to fraud or error, and discLFssed these beten our audit team members. We then designed and perfornd aLKlit procudures reportsNe to those risks, induding audit evid8n¢e sufficient and approkyiate to provide a basis for our opinion. We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks wÉthin vthich the charitable trust operates. focusing on those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the determinakn.on of material amounts and disdosures in the finanual statements. The main law and regulation we Gonsidered in this context was the Charities SORP (FRS 102) We assessed the required compliance these as part of our audit prOdureS on the related financial statement items. We also considered the opwtunitses arKJ inc8ntives that may exist rythin the charitable trust for fraud. Auditing standards limit the required audii procedure5 to irKlentrfy non<ompliance. We identified the greatest risk of mattirtal impact on the financial statements from irregulaties, including fraud, to be vrtihin Ihe recording of income arKI valuth.on of investfnents and the override of controls by management. Our audit procedures to repond to these Tisks included additional work reviewing investment income and valuab'ons. enquiri8s of management and analytiGal review procedures. Owing to Ihe inherent limiations of an audit, these is an unavoidable risk that we may nol have detected some material misstatements in the financial statemetns. even though we have properly planned and perfomied our audrt in aco)rdance with auditing standards. We are not responSie for preventing non-compliance and cannot be exrthd to detect noTrcompliance with all laws and regulations.
