Our responsibilities under those thklards are hrther described in the Auditors, responsibilities for the audit of the

that the audit rvidenc¢ wt have obtained is sutr￿lent and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
CoDdusioD5 relatiDg to goiDg co•cern
In auditing the financial statement4 we have concluded that the truSt￿S, use of the going concern basis of accounting
in the preparation of the financial stslements is appropriate.
Based on th¢ work we hav¢ wfomkd. we have nof identified any material uncertainties tElating to events or

Report of the Ind¢peDdont Auditors to the Members or
The Muhiple Sclerojig Research knd
Relkf Fund
Our we8pollsibililies for the audit of tbe financial statemellts
Our objectives are to obtain reasonabl¢ assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole aTe from
material mis5tatemen4 whether due to fraud or error, hnd to issue a Report of the Independ¢nt Auditors that includes
our opinion. Reasonable assurawx 18 a high level of assurance. but is not a 8uarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misxtatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from
fraud or error and are considered maierial if, individually or in the aggregat< they could reasonably be expected to
influenc¢ th¢ xonomic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
The ¢xt¢nt to which our procedures ar¢ ¢apabl¢ of d¢l¢ctin8 irre8ulariti¢& including fraud is delailed below:
Irregularities includin8 fraud, are instances of non*omplisnc¢ with laws and Te8ulations. W¢ desiBn procedures in line
with our responsibilities, outlined abov¢, to d¢￿t material misststements in respect of iTr¢gulgritio& in¢luding fraud.
The extent to which our procedures are CApable of detectin8 irregularitie4 including fraud is detsiled below
Ba5cd on our understandin8 of the industry, we identified that the principal risks of non-complianc¢ with laws and
resulations related to employmeni laws and indire¢t tax¢8 and we considered the extent to which n￿-COmplIance
might have a material effe¢t on the financial Statements. We also considered those laws and re8ulation8 that have a
direct impact on the preparation of the financial stawnents such as th¢ Companies Aet 2006.
We evaluated manig¢menl'$ incentives and Oppo￿nItIeS for frauduleni manipulation of the finAn¢ial #arements
(in¢lvding the ri$k of ov¢rrid¢ of controls). and d¢terniined that the wincipal risks wer¢ related lo postin8 inappropriat¢
Journal ¢ntri¢s to aCh1￿C d¢sir¢d financial results and the manipulation of ¢x¢eptional items and management bias in
a¢¢ounting estimatu. Audit pro¢edur¢s perforned by the en8a8ement team includ¢d, but w¢r¢ no¢ limited lo..
enquiries With managcmenl internal accounts and the legal counsel (internal and, where rel¢vanL extsrnal), in¢ludin
consideration of known or suspected instances of fraud and non-¢ompliaK¢ with laws and r4ulations and *xamining
supportin8 calculations where a provision h&5 been made in respect of these.
There are inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not dete¢t all irregulaTities, in¢luding thos¢
l¢adin8 to a material missratement in the fjnaneial statemenls or non4ompliance with regulation. This risk incre
thc mor¢ that compliance with a law or regulation is rcmov¢d from the events and transa¢tion$ r¢fle¢ted in lh¢ financial
statements. as we will be le$s likely to become awar¢ of instanceg of non-compliance, The risk is olso 8reater regarding
irregularities occuffing due to fraud ratheT than error, as fraud involves intentional concealmen¢ forgery, collusion,
omission or misrepresentslion
A further description of our r¢sponsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Fin￿¢1￿1

The estimates and underlying assumption are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accountin8 ¢Stimat
aTe reco8nised in th¢ period in which th¢ esiimat¢ is r¢vis¢d if th¢ revision affects only that Peri￿. or in the
period of the revision and futhre periods if the revision aff¢cts current and future perifyjs.
The key assumptions and other sources of estimation uncertainty thv4t have a significant effect of causin8
adjustments to the carrying amounts of lssets are as follows..
- The amounis held in accruals for grants authorlsed but not yet paid are included on the assumption that they
will be paid in th¢ following year. It is po&sible that the grant Can be withdrawn or the amount du¢ to be paid

Lliuiriiiuii's 12L'I)c)rl
The past year has seen the Charity
continue its recovery from the
ravages of the pandemic. and
thankfully we are now pretty much
back to pre Covid operating levels.
Careful and frugal management of
the day to day running of the Charity
have contributed greatly to helping
preserve the future of MSRRF, and
we are now very much looking
forward. rather than treading water,
Most Staff vacancies have now been
filled, and new employees and self
employed staff are settling in nicely.
We are once again becoming a team
and doubts about the future are a
thing of the past.
As always, I cannot praise our staff
enough for their dedication and
professionalism, particularly during
the period when Covid was affecting
so much.
Turning to the Trustees of MSRRF,
Margery Tate retired during the year.
and will be a big miss, we are all
grateful for her effort5 and
contribution5 over the years. I would
also like to welcome Nicola Young to
the board of trustees, who brings
years of HR experience to our team
and l am sure will become a valuable
member.
Southside House is now the
physiotherapy centre we planned it
to be and 15 to be renamed the
Pashler Centre in honour of the
family whose kind bequest provided
us with the funds to undertake the
project. It has already become very
popular with our service users and is
a major contributor to our range of
services.
l)(Iiil . 11 kiii4iC)11
We continue to look closely at
approaches relating to outreach
projects, all of which are individually
assessed, and if found to be practical
and economically viable, will then be
approved.

Legacies form a large part of our income and help us carry out our work
supporting people affected by MS and their carers. We receive no statutory
fundin& so rely entirely on fundraisin& grant funding and donations.
MS Research and Relief Fund will continue to
have a positive impact on the lives of people
affected by MS due to the generosity of all
benefactors who have willed legacies or
made donations during this financial year.
MS Research and Relief Fund has received a
total of £510,334 and will continue to
provide support and improve the quality of
life of people with multiple sclerosis.

It is hoped with the new website and literature available on legacies that the
charity will be able to raise awareness of this avenue of donation on a wider scale.
Our state of the art physiotherapy centre was made possible thanks to a
substantial legacy received in 2017. South Side House will officially open as the
Pashler Physiotherapy Centre in 2025. This has been the foundation for our
charity to begin the move toward becoming a physiotherapy led service.
