Independent Auditors' Report to the Trustees of the charity on the accounts for the year ended 31 January 2025
Introduction
We have audited the financial statements of FUNDD for the year ended 31 January 2025, as set out on pages 13 to 22, which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Income and Expenditure Account, the Balance Sheet , the Cash Flow Statement and the related notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements of the charity are prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with charity law applicable within the jurisdiction of England & Wales and, in particular, the accounts have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2019, applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the accounting policies set out on page 19, which framework constitutes the applicable United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
Limitation of liability
This report is made solely to the Trustees of the charity, as a body, in accordance with the requirements of Section 154 of the Charities Act 2011 (The Act). Our work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an Auditor's Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume liability or responsibility to anyone other than the Trustees as a body, for our work, for this report or for the opinions we have formed.
Basis for our opinion
We have been appointed as auditors under section 144(2) of The Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act.
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs-UK), issued by the Financial Reporting Council, and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in England & Wales, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements
As described on page 7, you, the charity's Trustees, are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 and all other applicable law and with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, applicable to smaller entities, and for being satisfied that the financial statements give a true and fair view.
The Trustees,who are charged with governance, are responsible for overseeing the charity’s financial reporting process.
9
FUNDD
Management is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with charity law of the jurisdiction of England & Wales and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs-UK will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Our responsibility is to audit and express an opinion on the financial statements in accordance with relevant legal and regulatory requirements and ISAs-UK. Those standards require us to comply with the Ethical Standards for Auditors published by the Financial Reporting Council and to:-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, to design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks and to obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion;
To obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate for the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion of the effectiveness of the charity's internal control;
To evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the charity;
To conclude on the appropriateness of the charity's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern;
To evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves a fair presentation.
We are required to report to the Trustees our opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view and have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice and the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008.
We are also required to report to you if, in our opinion, the Trustees' Annual Report is materially inconsistent with the financial statements, if the charity has not kept adequate accounting records, if the charity’s financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns, or if we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit, or if information specified by law regarding Trustees' remuneration and transactions with the charity is not disclosed.

FUNDD
In addition, we read all the financial and non-financial information in the Trustees' Annual Report to identify material inconsistencies with the audited financial statements and to identify any information that is apparently materially incorrect based on, or materially inconsistent with, the knowledge acquired by us in the course of performing the audit. If we become aware of any apparent material misstatements or inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report.
We conducted our audit in accordance with ISAs-UK and in accordance with the Practice Note ' The Audit of Charities in the United Kingdom' , revised in March 2012.
We are required to plan and perform our audit so as to meet the above requirements and to obtain all the information and explanations which we consider necessary in order to provide us with sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or other irregularity or error.
In the course of our audit, we communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during the audit.
Eligibilty of auditor and status of audit
We confirm that we are eligible under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 to conduct this audit, and that this report is a report in respect of an audit carried out under the Act and in accordance with the related regulations.
Attention is drawn to the accounting policy stating that, notwithstanding the explicit requirement in the extant statutory regulations, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the SORP 2005, in view of the fact that the SORP 2005 has been withdrawn, and in order to accord with current best practice, the Trustees have determined to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2019, applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), . We concur with this approach, and any references in our report to the regulations should be read subject to this comment.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
In accordance with Regulations 25(g) and (h) of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, in our opinion the charity's financial statements:
Give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at 31 January 2025 and of its Income and Expenditure for the financial year then ended and, in particular, the financial statements
have been properly prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice applicable to entities of its size and have been properly prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011; and
have been prepared in accordance with
and have been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles required by the FRS102 Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting issued by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , effective January 2015 (The SORP), and those methods and principles have been followed.

FUNDD
Matters upon which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the requires us to report to you, if in our opinion:
the charity has not kept adequate accounting records; or
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
if information specified by law regarding Trustees' remuneration and transactions with the charity is not disclosed.
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 January 2025
- 1 Accounting policies
Policies relating to the production of the accounts.
Basis of preparation and accounting convention
The accounts have been prepared on the accruals basis, under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) and 'FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2019, applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , and in accordance with all applicable law in the charity's jurisdiction of registration, except that the charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2019, applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), in preference to the previous SORP, the SORP 2005, which has been withdrawn, notwithstanding the fact that the extant statutory regulations, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 refer explicitly to the SORP 2005. This has been done to accord with current best practice.
Going Concern
The charitable activities are entirely dependent on continuing grant aid and voluntary donations . As a consequence, the going concern basis is dependent on the future flow of these uncertain funding streams. Accordingly, the Trustees have obtained forecasts and, after reviewing the financial forecasts for future periods to 30th November 2025, the Trustees are satisfied that, at the time of approving the financial statements, it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Other than these matters, the Trustees are not aware of any material uncertainites about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are measured at their original cost value, or subsequent revaluation, or if donated, as described above. Cost value includes all costs expended in bringing the asset into its intended working condition.
Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets to their anticipated residual value over their estimated useful lives.
Plant and machinery 20 % straight line
Fund Accounting
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.
There are no endowment funds.
2 Liability to taxation
The Trustees consider that the charity satisfies the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by chapter 3 part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively on the specific charitable objects of the charity and for no other purpose.
