Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of South Hill PaH( Trust Limited (the 'charitable company.) for the
year ended 31 Marth 2024 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheets
and Statement5 of Cash Flows and notes lo the financial Statements, including a summary of significant
accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable
law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 The Financiol Reporting Stondurdapplicuble
irj the UK und Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
give a true and fair view of the state of the group's and charitable company's affairs as at 31 March
2024 and of the group's incoming resources and application of resources, including it5 income and
expenditure, for the year then ended;
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting
Practice", and
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basls for oplnion
We conducted our audit accordance with International Standards on Auditing IUKI Ils￿ IUK)) Ind
applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards a￿ further described in the Auditorfs
responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independenl of the
charitable company in accordance wth the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the linancial
statements in the UK, including the FRC'S Ethical Standard. 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.
Mat*rial unc•rtainty r•lat•d to going concem
We draw your attention to note 2 in the finanaal statements, which indicates the continuing activities of the
charitable ccrnpany are dependent on the receipt of grant income at a similar level to that of the current
year. Grants are awarded annually. As such. the level of funding is not known more than 12 month5 in
advance. As ststed in Note 2, these events or conditions, coupled with the charitable company's level of free
reserve5, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the charitable
compan/s ability lo continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of thi5 matter.
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees, use of the going concern basis of
accounting in the preparati￿ of the financial statements is appropriate.

Responslbllliios of trustees
A5 explained more fully in the Trustees. Respon5ibilits'es Statement the charity trustees (who are also the
directors of the South Hill Park Trust tsmited for the purposes of company lawl are responsible for the
preparation of a trustees, annual report and financial statements and for being sat15fied that they give a true
and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is ne(e55ary to enable the preparation
of financial statements ihat are free from mater&al misstatement whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable companls
ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable. matters related to going concern and using
the going concem basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquid3te the charitable company
or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Audltofs responsibilitles for the audit of the flnancial statement5
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about vA)ether the financial statements as a whole am free
from material misStatemen( whether due to fraud or error, and to Issue kn auditorfs 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 IUKI will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise
from fraud or e￿Or and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be
expected to influence the economic decisions of Use￿ taken on the bosis of these financial statements.
I￿egUlaritieS, including fraud, are inStan￿S of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design
procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of
irregularities. including fraud. The specific procedures for this engagement and the extent to which these are
capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below..
We have considered..
o the nature of the charity and sector, control environment and operating performance,.
o the CharIt￿S own assessment including a￿eSsrnents made by key management, of the risks
that irregL¢larilies may occur either a5 a result of fraud or error
any matters we identified having reviewed the charity's pollcies and procedures relating to:
iderttifying, evaluating and complying wth laws and regulations and whether they
were aware of any instances of non-compliance;
detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of
any actual, suspected or alleged fraud- and
the internal controls established to mitigate Tisks of fraud or non-compliance wth
laws and regulations:
o the matters discussed amongst the audit engagement team.
As a result of these procedures, we considered the oprJ)rtunities and incentives that may exist within the
organisation for fraud and identified the greatest potential for fraud in the areas in which management is
required to exercise significant judgement, such as the disclosu￿ of adjusting items. In common wrth all
audits under ISAS IUKI, we are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of
management override.
Page 10

South Hlll Park Trust Llmited
Indèpendenl Auditorfs Report to the Members of South Hlll Park Trust Llmlted
We also obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framewod( that the charity operates in,
focusing on provisions of those laws and regulations that had a dirert effect on the determination of material
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The key laws and regulations we considered in thi5
context were the Companies Act, Charities Art and lax legislation.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities,
including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with
regulation. This risk increases Ihe more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events
and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instance5
of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error. as
fraud involves intentional concealmenL forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the
Financial Reporting Council's website at.. http://ww.frcorg.uVauditorsre5ponsibilitie& This description forms
part of our auditor's report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charitable (ompan￿S members as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of
Part 16 of the Companie5 Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the
charitable company's members those matters we are required to stste 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 responsibility to
anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable compan￿5 members as a body. for our audit

Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparlng their account5 in accordance with the
Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of I￿land IFRS 1021 (effective 1 January
20151 (Charities SORP IFRS 10211, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of
Ireland IFRS 1021 and the Companies Art 2006.
Bas15 of preparatlon
South Hill Park Trust knmited meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities
are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwse stated in the relevant
accounting policy note5.
The functional currency is in sterfing and the values are rounded to the nearest £.
Basls of consolldatlon
The consolidated financial statement5 consolidate the financial statements of the Trust and its Subsidiary
undertaking drawn up to 31 March 2024, together known as the 'group'.
No statement ot financial activities is presented for the Trust as permitted by section 408 of the Companie5 Act
2006. The Trust made a deficit for the financial year of £274,55612023 - deficit of £221.299).
A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the Trust. Control is achieved where the TNst has the power to govern
the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtsin benefits from its activtties.
The results of subsidiaries aCqUi￿d or disposed of during the year are included in the statement of financial
actiwties from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effertive date of disposal. as appropriate.
The purchase method of accounting is used to account for business combinations that result in the acquisition
of a subsidiary by the group. The cost of a business combination is measured as the fair value of the assets
given, equity instruments issued and liabilitie5 incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly
attributable to the business combination. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities
ssumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. Any excess

Notes to the Financlal Ststements for the Year Ended 31 March 2024
of the cost of the business combination over the acquirds interest in the net fair value of the identifiable
assets liabilities and contingent liabilities recognised is recorded as goodwill.
Inter-company transaction5, balance5 and unrealised gains on transactions be￿een the Twst and its
subsidiaries, which are relaled parties, are eliminated in full.
Golng C(￿C•1￿
The Trust receives core grant furbding from two major bodies18racknell Forest Counol,. "BFC") and Bracknell
Town Council {"BTC'I.
At the date of signing the financial statements these grants were renewed for 2024125. including a 5% increase
from BTC, though the availability of funding at these levels cannot be guaranteed for future years.
Free reseNes as 31 March 2024 represent-1.9% of the total annual expenditure incurred in the year to 31
March 2024. The Tnjst faces added risk from the ongoing cost-of-living crisis and its impart on revenue5,
especially fundraising and room hire and an increase in employers Nl from April 2025.
In August 2019 the final ernployee of the Trnst and member of the defined benefrt RBWM Pension Scheme
retired. The actuaries of the Scheme were asked lo provide a cessation report which would calculate both the
full cessation and an ongoing cessation liability for the Trust The full cessation was reflected in the financial
statements, and the Trust a9reed a repayment plan with the pension scheme. The final payment is due in
2025R6.
The ability of the Trusl to continue as a going concern is dependent on the commitment to ongoing funding
by BFC and BTC, together with any impact on the ability to create revenues and fundraising by the cost-of-
liwng crisis.
These condition5 indicate the existence of a material un￿rtaintY which may cast $19nificant doubt about the
ability of the Charity to continue as a going concem.
However, the Trust continues to engage wlth all stakeholders. has increased capacity in its fundraising and
Ma￿eting teams and wi51 produce a new three-year strategic plan from April 2025. Whilst the commitment to
ongoing grant funding from BFC and BTC has not yet been agreed beyond 2024125, the Trustees anticipate
level of funding based on their experience of renewal and expectstions that funding from BFC and BTC will be
agreed. And, the Trustees have an agreement for a defined benefit pension deficit repayrnent plan. On this
basis the TrL5Stees consider there to be adequate funding for the Trust to remain a5 a going concem for a
period of at lèast 12 months from the date of signing the financial statements and therelore the accounts have
been prepared on a going concern basis. The financial staternents do not include the adjustments that would
result if the Charity was unable to continue as a going concem.
Judgements
In preparing these financial 5tatement5. management has made the following judgements.. Determination of
whether there are indicators of impaim)ent of the Trust's tangible assets. Factors taken into consideration in
reaching such a decision include the economic viability and expected future financial perfornance of the asset
and where it is a cornponent of a larger cash-generating unlL the viability and expected future perfom)ance of
that uniL

Key sources of esllmatl¢)n uncertalnty
Tangible fixed assets are depreciated over their useful lives taking into account residual values, where
appropriate. The actual lives of the assets and residual values are assessed annually and may vary depending
on a number of factors. In re-assessing asset lives, factors such as technological innovation. produrt life cycles
and maintenance program5 are taken into account. Residual value assessments consider issues such as future
market conditions, the remaining life of the asset and projected disposal values.
The recoverability of book debts is reviewed by management and a provision is made based on all the
infomation available.
