The main actwities of the charty are the (wnership of land and buiklings occupied by a constituted college of Roehampton University as noted in the Trustees. Report on page 6. The Col*e's prrncipal address is Parkstead House, Hotyboume Avenue, London. SW15 4JD. Th8 princpal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the accounts are laid beknw. Basis of accounting These accounts have been prepared for the year to 31 July 2024 with compafative infomiation provided for the year lo 31 Jvty 2023.

Assessment of going concern The Govemors have assess&J whether the use of th& going concern assumption is appr(wriate in preparing these accounts. The Govemors have made this assessment in respect to a period of at least one yearfrom the date of approval of these accounts. The Governors of the College have concluded that there are no material uncertainli8$ related to events or conditions that may cast signrficant doubl on Ihe ability of the College to continue as a going concern. The Govemors are of the opinion that the College will have suffici&nl resources lo meet rts liabilities as they fall due. The most signrficanl areas of judgement that affect items in the accounts are the continued abilty of the Universty lo make the annual payment to the College and for the College to $8Thi¢o tho loan facility Whilelands College 20

Principal accountlng pollcles 31 Juty 2024 provided by Allicia 8ank Limited and moel the loan ¢ovgnanl5. As the annual payment payable by the University is based on the College's estimated payments for the financial year, the risk of the College not being able lo meet its liabilit as they fall due is reduced. wr(h regards to the next a￿untIng period, the year ending 31 July 2024, the only area that affects the carrying value of the assets held by the College is the level of investment retum and Ihe performance of the inVest￿nI markets. The value of the investments hekt in unstised funds is not svJnifi&int lo the assessment of the financial viabilty of the College.

The annual payment is recognised in accordance wth the I￿nCe and managemenl agreement with Roehampton Universty and to the extent that it 15 probable that the ￿onoMiC benefits will flowto the College and the revenue can be measured ￿1￿hty.

Our Report is prepared solely for the confidential use of Whitelands College and solely for the purpose of explaining the scope of the audit, our proposed audit approach, and to highlight the key risks that we will be focusing our audit work upon, forming part of the ongoing communications we are required to make under International Standard on Auditing (UK and Ireland) 260 – Communication of audit matters with those charged with governance. Therefore, the report may not, without our express written permission, be relied upon by Whitelands College for any other purpose whatsoever, be referred to in whole or in part in any other external document or made available (in whole or in part) or communicated to any other party. Goodman Jones LLP neither owes nor accepts any duty to any other party who may receive our Report and specifically disclaims any liability for any loss, damage or expense of whatsoever nature, which is caused by their reliance on our Report.

1 AUDIT SUMMARY

1.1 Purpose

Our responsibilities as auditors are set out in the International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) (“ISAs”). We are responsible for forming and expressing an opinion on the financial statements that have been prepared by management with the oversight of those charged with governance.

The audit of the financial statements does not relieve management or those charged with governance of their responsibilities.

We have carried out our audit in accordance with the terms of our engagement letter in order to express an audit opinion for UK statutory purposes on the financial statements of the following entity for the year ended 31 July 2024:

• Whitelands College

In this report, we present the key findings from our audit, together with a commentary on the significant matters arising.

This report has been discussed comprehensively and agreed with Gavin Pereira, Senior Financial Accountant (University of Roehampton)/Baljit Kaur, Director of Finance (University of Roehampton).

1.2 Audit approach and materiality

Our audit planning has taken account of the issues highlighted through planning discussions with you, together with our knowledge and understanding of the business from our planning meeting.

We confirm that there were no restrictions on the scope of our audit procedures.

In our planning we have taken account of the results of our risk assessments made in accordance with the guidance set by the ISAs.

• In planning and carrying out our work, we applied a materiality level of £194,000 (based on 1% of gross assets).

• Due to the small nature of expenditure relative to the other assets held by the charity, a separate materiality was adopted for testing. SOFA materiality was £8,175 (based on 1.5% of total expenditure).

• We explain in Section 2 how audit risks at planning stage have been addressed.

1.3 Accounting policies

In preparing the financial statements of the Charity, the Trustees are required to review the Charity’s accounting policies on an annual basis to ensure they remain appropriate to the Charity’s circumstances and are properly applied.

We have reviewed the accounting polices selected and operated by the Charity and are satisfied that they are acceptable.

1.4 Significant findings

There are no significant issues that we wish to bring to the Trustees’ attention.

1.5 Accounting estimates and judgements

There are no significant matters that we wish to bring to the Trustees’ attention.

1.6 Accounting and financial control systems

During our audit, we examined the design and implementation of the internal controls relevant to the accounting systems and procedures.

The review of internal controls was carried out with a view to expressing an opinion on the financial statements for the period and was not directed primarily towards discovering weaknesses or towards the detection of fraud.

Therefore, our comments on these systems include only those matters that have come to our attention as a result of our normal audit procedures, and consequently our comments should not be regarded as a comprehensive

Whitelands College – Audit findings report for the year ended 31 July 2024

2

record of all weaknesses that may exist or of all improvements that might be made.

We set out in Section 3 the matters that we became aware of during the course of our audit, which we believe are significant and should be drawn to your attention for further action.

1.7 Management representations

We include a copy of our management representations.

There are certain representations which we are required by auditing standards to obtain from management as part of our audit procedures.

1.10 Other matters required by Auditing Standards to be communicated

We confirm that the firm has implemented the stated safeguards and has complied with the relevant ethical requirements concerning audit independence.

There are no other matters required by auditing standards that we are required by auditing standards to communicate to you.

Please note that this report has been prepared for the sole use of Whitelands College. It must not be disclosed to third parties, quoted or referred to, without our prior written consent. No responsibility is assumed by us to any other person.

In addition, we are required to obtain other representations on matters material to the financial statements where other sufficient appropriate audit evidence cannot be reasonably expected to exist.

1.8 Identified misstatements

We are required to report to you all misstatements identified during the audit, other than those that are clearly trivial, and to request that management correct them.

We have taken clearly trivial as being less than £9,700.

We bring to your attention the uncorrected misstatements detailed in section 4 below. The aggregate impact of uncorrected misstatements on the Statement of Financial Activities, were they to be processed, would result in an increase to the surplus of £4,400. This increase is not considered by management to be material to the results for the period.

1.9 Audit opinion

Based upon the findings and conclusions of our work, we expect to issue an unqualified audit opinion on the financial statements.

2 AUDIT AND ACCOUNTING ISSUES IDENTIFIED AT PLANNING STAGE

High risk audit issues identified at planning stage were addressed as follows:

Audit risk identified	Audit procedures undertaken	Conclusion
Risk of loan covenants being breached in the year.	Through re-performing the loan covenant tests at the balance sheet date and reviewing the covenant checks performed by the College throughout the year	The loan covenant tests were met at the balance sheet date and evidence obtained showing the tests were not breached during the year.

Low risk audit issues identified at planning stage were addressed as follows:

Audit risk identified	Audit procedures undertaken	Conclusion
Risk of management override of controls (presumed under ISAs).	Review of controls for authorisation by management. Review of journals.	No evidence of controls being overridden.
Risk of unidentified related party transactions (presumed under ISAs).	Awareness of related parties and review of nominal ledger for undisclosed transactions.	No evidence of previously unidentified related parties. Transactions with related parties identified and disclosed.
Fraud in relation to income recognition (presumed under ISAs).	Performed substantive testing on income by obtaining the License and Management agreement with the University of Roehampton; and agreeing the annual payment to bank.	No evidence of income being misstated due to fraud.

3 AUDIT AND ACCOUNTING ISSUES IDENTIFIED DURING THE AUDIT

3.1 Introduction

We set out below the significant matters we became aware of during our audit, which relate to the effectiveness of the Charity’s accounting and financial control systems. We have used the following grading system to indicate the significance of the issues we have raised and the priority that we believe should be given to our recommendations:

Rating	Description
(H)igh	Should be urgently attended to by the Trustees and management. These are significant issues that may result in a qualification in the audit report in future periods if not satisfactorily addressed.
(M)oderate	Issues requiring the attention of the Trustees and management. Issues ranked as moderate require close monitoring by the Board and senior management to ensure timely resolution.
(L)ow	Issues requiring management attention and correction. Issues ranked as low are generally routine in nature and should be resolved by general management. The Board and senior management should be aware of these issues to enable monitoring of progress with their resolution. These issues may be reported to management in less detail than more highly rated issues.

3.2 Issues noted

Issue	Potential effects	Risk	Suggested solution	Management response
Over depreciation of freehold land– land and buildings were depreciated as a whole rather than just the buildings. As per FRS 102 (section 17.16), “There are some exceptions, such as land which generally has an unlimited useful life and therefore is not usuallydepreciated.”	Over depreciation of fixed assets in the financial statements.	(L)ow	Apply provided adjustment journal to correct current year error and correct historic over- depreciation.

5 FORTHCOMING REGULATORY CHANGES AND OTHER MATTERS TO NOTE

5.1 New Charity SORP

The SORP Development Committee have started work on considering potential changes to the next version of the Charities SORP (expected to be in effect from 1 January 2026).

At this stage, no definitive decisions on changes have been made, and any proposed changes would be subject to public consultation in due course.

Initial feedback we have seen from the SORP Committee shows that they will be considering the following areas:

Provision of Summary financial information / KPIs	Presentation / format of SOFA	Removal certain comparative information	Accruals accounting for grant income recognition	Activity reporting
Reserves	Tiered reporting	Legacies	Expenditure classification	Materiality
Impact Reporting	Sustainability reporting	Donated goods and services	Support costs	Financial and funds notes

We expect that the new SORP will see increased disclosure requirements in the Trustees’ Report (most likely in respect of impact, reserves policies, and certain disclosures from the Charity Governance Code, including whether or not the charity has adopted the code), as well as other disclosures in the notes to the accounts (possibly regarding staff costs, and arithmetic calculation of reserves and reserves policies).

5.2 Environmental and Carbon Reporting

More and more charities are starting to report voluntarily on climate change and their carbon emissions, as well as what actions their organisations are taking in order to reduce their carbon footprint.

We are also seeing evidence that more and more funders are now requesting such information as part of funding applications.

The UK Government have also launched a Climate Hub requesting SMEs commit to net zero: https://businessclimatehub.org/uk/. It is possible that such a commitment may be required in the future in order to obtain government funding.

5.3 Cyber Security

A recent survey for the Department of Digital, Culture, Media, and Sport has revealed that over two thirds of high income charities (those with income above £500,000) recorded a cyber breach or attack.

In addition to the possible financial loss arising directly from a breach or attack, a charity may suffer reputational damage. It is therefore essential that charities are vigilant to the threat of cyber crime and have appropriate defence mechanisms in place.

Whitelands College – Audit findings report for the year ended 31 July 2024

7

The National Cyber Security Centre has produced guides for small and larger charities:

https://www.ncsc.gov.uk/collection/charity https://www.ncsc.gov.uk/collection/board-toolkit

The guidance refers to the Cyber Essentials scheme. Cyber Essentials helps prevent the vast majority of cyber-attacks. Even a simple virus or piece of malware could result in loss of company and client data, disrupt your cash flow and take up staff time. An attack could also put off your customers, stop you trading and damage your hard-earned reputation. It could also be reported in the local media. Loss of data could breach the Data Protection Act and lead to fines or prosecution.

Having a Cyber Essentials badge will:

• Protect your organisation against common cyber threats

• Show your customers you take this issue seriously

• Enable you to bid for Government contracts.

Since October 2014 Cyber Essentials has been mandatory for suppliers of Government contracts which involve handling personal information and providing some ICT products and services. Holding a Cyber Essentials badge enables you to bid for these contracts.

5.4 Digital resources

It is also essential that organisations ensure that they are fully compliant regarding their digital content. Free and valuable resource is available from The Media Trust: https://mediatrust.org/communications-support/resource-hub/

5.5 Charity Governance Code

The Charity governance Code has been in use for several years. Adoption of the code is still considered to be relatively low, although many organisations are likely meeting requirements in the Code even if not being formally aware that they are.

A new free app has been launched to encourage charities to adopt the Code and become familiar with the Code’s requirements. More information can be found at: https://thegovernanceapp.org.uk/

5.6 Charity Commission guidance updates

The Charity Commission regularly updates its guidance for changes within the sector. Recent changes to its guidance include:

5.7 Code of Fundraising Practice

Effective October 2019, the Code of Fundraising Practice as issued by the Fundraising Regulator has been revised. The changes are predominately presentational, with an aim of improving the clarity and accessibility of the guidance, and include:

• Consolidation of the former code, rulebooks and legal appendices so that all of the standards can be found in one code.

• Clearer navigation by restructuring the standards in to three parts so that users can clearly identify which standards apply depending on the type of fundraising they do.

• Clarification of where there are differences in law in England and Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland.

• Transparent, jargon-free language.

5.8 Hybrid working

Home working, and hybrid working, are becoming more and more popular, with more and more employers now offering this. It is important that employers remain fully aware of their responsibilities as well as compliant with HR and health and safety legislation. ACAS have produced some helpful guidance which can be found at: https://www.acas.org.uk/hybrid-working

5.9 Gift Aid

HMRC guidance on gift aid has been updated to reflect the requirements for information to be included on declarations. Going forward, every declaration should include:

• The donor’s full name and home address

• The name of the charity

• Details of the specific gift or gifts to which the declaration relates

• Confirmation that the specified gifts are to be treated as gift aid donations

HMRC has also updated its guidance to confirm that where a person receives a refund owing to a cancelled event and decides to donate this refund to the charity, gift aid can be claimed on donation of this refunded provided that:

• The donor confirms that the cost of the ticket is to become a donation

• No benefit is received by the donor as a result of this donation

• A gift aid declaration is completed by the donor

• An audit trail is maintained by the charity including a copy of the agreement with the donor that the cost of the ticket is to become a donation

The charity does not have to refund the ticket price for the donor to re-donate – this can be a ‘paper’ transaction provided that the above conditions are still met.

From May 2021, loan waivers will now also qualify for gift aid.

• Pay-per-click adverts – zero-rated

• Direct placements on third party websites – zero-rated

• Social media and/or subscription websites – standard-rated

• Retargeting individuals who are revisiting a website – standard-rated.
