for being sat15fied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine 15 necessary
to enable the preparation of financial statements that a￿ Iiee from material misstatement, whether due to fraud 01 error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to

basis ol accounting unless the trustees either intend to IiqLJidate the charitable company 01 to cease operations, or have

Our responsrbilities for the audit of the financial statement8
Our objectives ale to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements 8s a whole are free from
material misstatement. whether due lo fraud or eiror, and to 155ue 8 Report of the Independent Auditors th* 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 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 slalernenls.
The extent to which our prO￿dureS are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below..
The objectives of our audit, in respect of fraud or error are..
To identify and assess the risks of rnateii81 mi55tatement of the financi81 st8tement5 dLJe to fraud.
To obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks ol material misstatement due to
fraud, through designing and implementing appropriate responses.
To respond appropriately to fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit.
However, the piimary ie5ponsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests wth both those charged wrth
g0Veman￿ ol the entity and management. Our approach was as follows..
Enquiring of man8gernent, including obtaining 8nd reviewing supporting docurnentalion. concerning the
Charivs policies and procedures relating to"_identifying, evaluating and cornplying with laws and regulations
and whether they were aware of any InStan￿g of non-compliance;.detecting and ie5ponding to the risks of
fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud,. and-the internal controls
established to mitigate the risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations.
Discussing among the engagement learn how and where fraud might occur in the Financial Slalernents and
any other potential indicators of fraud.
Obtaining an understanding ol the legal and regulatory frameworks that the charty operates in, focusing on
those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the Financial Statements or that had a fundamental
effect on operations. These included the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2022 and sanctions and
conflict check5.

The Atkinson Morley's Hospital Neurosciences Research Foundation is registered as a charity with Charity Commission under registration number 288438. 

The principal activity of the Charity is the diagnosis and treatment of disorders affecting the brain, skull, spine and nervous system. 

The presentation currency used in the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). 

## 2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

## BASIS OF PREPARING THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)',  Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

## Going Concern 

The trustees consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. 

## INCOME 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## EXPENDITURE 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## Allocation of support costs 

Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. The costs are allocated to each fund in direct proportion to the fund value. Funds with a value of less than £1,000 do not receive an allocation of support costs 

## CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES 

Direct charitable expenditure comprises services supplied and activities undertaken which are identifiable as wholly or mainly in support of the Charity's objectives. 

## GOVERNANCE COSTS 

Governance costs comprise the costs which are directly attributable to the management of the Charity's assets, organisational procedures and the necessary legal procedures for compliance with statutory requirements. 

## TAXATION 

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities. 

## FUND ACCOUNTING 

Funds held by the charity are either: 

## Unrestricted funds 

Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources receivable or generated for the objects of the charity without further specified purpose and are available as general funds. 

## Restricted funds

## 2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued 

## FUND ACCOUNTING 

Restricted funds are those where specific conditions have been imposed by the donor, or when funds are raised, regarding the fund's use or purpose. 

## DEBTORS 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## Cash at bank and in hand 

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. 

## Creditors 

Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will  probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any discounts due. 

## Financial instruments 

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## Judgements and Estimates 

The trustees do not consider there to be any material judgements. Estimates include expense accruals which are based on pre-agreed rates and historical costs.
