Investment pollcy Thé investment policy is to delegate the management of any Investments to a Financial Expert. At present these investments have nol been of material size but Ihis may alter in the future should sufficient funds become available. Flnanclal review a. Golng concern After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charitable company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The trustees acknowledge that the charity incurred a deficit for the year on unreslricted funds of £49,694 (before transfers) and had net current liabilities of £106,953 at the year end. Although the charity is in a net current liability position of £106,953 at the year end date, this posrtion has arisen largely due to a high level of deferred income, which was £127,998 as at the y8ar end date. The trustees are aware of the situation and are monitoring the finances on a regular basis. including regularly reviewing management accounts and fulure cash flow8. The Trustees have asked the executive to refinance the current Triodos loans which will help alleviate any short terni risk and since the year end, loan financing has been renegotiated to extend the loan term and reduce the interest rates which has improved cash flow. Heads of Temis have been agreed wrth Triodos Bank io refinance our current loan and the new agreement will come into place in September 2025. The charity holds freehold property with a carrying value of £2.6m, some of which could be sold to generate further revenue if required. The lodge, a distinct and disposable capital asset on the estate. valued at c.£350,000 acts as a reserve and could be sold as necessary to ensure Hawkwood continues to meet it charitable ambitions. Since the year end, the charity is also developing new trading activities as well as growing other income streams to improve the financial position. The projected year end 2025 financial posrtion is a Surplus of income over expendrture which will also contribute towards the rebuilding our free reseNes. In light of the strong asset base, and the actions being taken to improve our income generation and profitability, the charitable company continues to adopt the going concem basis in preparing the financial statements.

The aim is to reduce this deficit by refinancing the loans and increasing income. If this cannot be achieved the lodge, a distinct and disposable capital asset on the estate, valued al c.£350,000 acts as a reserve and could be sold as necessary to ensure Havthwood continues lo meet rt charitable ambitions.

(1) We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the charity operates in, and assessed the risk of non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Throughout the audit, we remained alert to possible indications of non-compliance. (2) We reviewed the charity'5 policies and procedures in relation to.. Identifying, evaluating and complying with laws and regulations, and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance., Detecting and responding to the risk of fraud, and whether they were aware of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud., and Designing and implementing intemal controls to mitigalg the risk of non-compliance with laws and regulations, including fraud. (3) We inspected the minutes of trustee meetings. (4) We enquired about any non-routine communication with regulators and reviewed any reports made to them. (5) We reviewed the financial statement disclosures and assessed their compliance with applicable laws and regulations. (6) We performed analytical pro￿dureS to identfy any unusual or unexpected transactions or balances that may indicate a risk of material fraud or error. (7) We assessed the risk of fraud through management override of controls and carried out procedures to address this risk. Our procedures included: Testing the appropriateness ofjournal entries., Assessing judgements and accounting estimates for potential bias,. Reviewing related party transactions- and Testing transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business. Because of the inherent limitations of an audit. there is a risk that we wll not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-complian￿ with regulation. Irregularities that arise due to fraud can be even harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion. 14
