Mattars on whlch we are requlred to report by excoptlon

environment obtained in the course of the audit. we have not identified material misstatements in the

the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns or
certain disclosures of Trustees, remuneration specified by Law are not made,, or
we have not recaved aLi the inforMat￿n and explanations we require for our audit
Responslbliltles of Trustaes for flnancl)l stst•ments
As explained more fully in the Trustees. responslbilities statement set out on page uthe Trustees Iwho are
also the dlrectors of the charltable company for the purposes of company lawl are responsible for the
preparalion of the financial slatements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view. and for such
internal control as the Tru51ees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that
are free from material mlsstatement, whether due lo fraud or error.
In ￿eparIng the financial stslements. the Trustees are responsible for assessing the groups and the parent
charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, dlsclosing, as applicable. matters related to going
concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the
group or the parent charitable company or to cease operations or have no realistic alternative but to do 5Q.
Irregularitiès, including fraud, are instances of non-compllance with laws and reguLations, We design
procedures in line with our responsibilities. outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respecl of
irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedure5 are capable of delecting irregularities,
incLuding fraud is detailed below.
Based on our understanding of the group and charitable company and the enmronment in which they
operates, we idenbfied that Ihe principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations rÈiatÈd lo revenue
recognilion and the completeness of expenditure. and we considered the extent lo which non-compbance
might have a material effect on Ihe financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that
have a direct impact on the preparation of Ihe financial slatements such as the Companies Act 2006, the
Charities Act 2011. payrotl tax and sales tax.
We evaluated management's incentives and opportunilies for fraudulent manipulation of the financial
statements lincluding the risk of override of controisl, and determined thal the principal risks werè related to
related lo posling inapproprialejournal entries to revenue and management bia5 in accounting estimates.
Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included..
Inspecting correspondence wth regulators and tax aulhorities.,
18

Discussions with management including consideration of known or suspected instances of non-
compliance wrf(h laws and regulation and fraud..
Evaluating management's controls designed to prevent and cletect irregularities
Identifying and testingjournaLs'. and
Challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in th￿r critical accounting
estimates.
Because of the inherent iimrtations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irreguLarities, including
those leading to a material misstatement in the f1nancial statements or non-compliance with regulats'on. This
risk increases the more that cempliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions
reftected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-
compliance. The risk is also g¥eateT regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud ralher than error, as fraud
involves intentioral concealment. forgery, collusion. omission or misrepresentation.
A fLJrther description of our rèsponsibilities for the audit of the financial staternents is located on the Financial
Reporting Council'5 website aL' wvN.frc.org.uk/audilorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our

m, Taxation
Th8 Charity's current trading activities are charitable and therefore, to the extent that any surpLuses
are applied to ils charitable objects, the Charity is not liable to tax. and no provision is made for current
or deferred tax by the Charity.
No provision 15 made for current or deferred tax on any profits arising in the year generated by the
Charity's subsidiaries which are expected to be offset by the carry back of future donations to the
Charity. The current tax charge recognised in the subsidiaries is based on the remaining taxable profit
for the year. The companys liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted
or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Other than as described above. deferred tax is recognlsed Sn respect of all timlng differences between
taxable profits and the net movement in funds that have originated but nol reversed at the balance
sheet dale. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable
profit will be available against which the temporary differences can b& ulilised. Deferred lax is
calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or th8
asset realised.
Deferred tax is charged or credited to profit or Ios5. except when it relate5 to item5 charged or credited
directly to other comprehonsivè income, in which case the deferred tax is also dèalt with in other

n. Keyjudgements and sources of estimation and uncertslnty
The preparation of financial statomer)ts in conformity with genorally accepted aceeunting practice
requires management lo make judgemenis and eslimales that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities as well as the di5c105ure of contingent assets and ￿abl￿tIeS at the statement of financial
position date and the reported arnount5 of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The
estimates and assoclated assurnptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are
considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
In preparing the f1nancial statements, the only judgements which had, or could have had, a material
impact on the financial statemenls is the adoption of the going concern basls for the preparation of
the financial statements las explained abovel and the assessment of whether a freehold property that
is currently sublet should bÉ¥ classed as an investment property or. as is currently the case, noL If in
future the property is recia$5ified as an investment property. it will need to be Staled al 115 fair value
rather than depreciated cost. whlch 15 likely to re5uII in an increase In the reported nel a55ets of the
Group,
The only niaterial estimate required is the estimated useful lives of assets and their r95idual values,
which are described above. The carrying value of the a55et5 15 given in note ￿,
