## **Review of activities** 

The Order has continued to support activities and provide services in its areas of 

operations. The guest houses owned and run by the charity in Iver Heath and in Holywell, Wales have continued to provide facilities to the community, and a trading surplus as a financial contribution to the Order's wider activities. The Foundation at Maryvale Theological Institute, Birmingham, continues to support the work of education and training in theology, philosophy and catechetics under the auspices of the Archdiocese of Birmingham. 

## **Trustees' responsibilities** 

Charity law requires the trustees of a charity to prepare financial statements for each financial period which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charity and of its income and expenditure for that period.  In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently. - observe the methods and principles in the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP); - make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent. - follow applicable accounting standards, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and - prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation. 

The trustees have overall responsibility for ensuring that the charity has an appropriate system of controls, financial and otherwise. They are also responsible for maintaining adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) 



Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed.  They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
