We coiniTJunicated these identified fraineworks ainongst our audit team and ren]aincd alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout tlie audit. We eiisured that the engageineiit team had si.1fficient competence and capability to identifv or recoRnise iion-coinpliance witli the laws and reoulations. We discussed with the directors and senior managenieiit tlie policies and procedures regarding coinpliance with these l¢gal and regulatory frameworks. We assessed the susceptibility of the group's finaiicial stateinents to Inaterial Inisstatemeiit due to iion-compliance witli legal and regulatory fraineworks, incliiding how fraud might occur, by enquiry with the directors and senior management dliring the planning aiid finalisation pliases stages of our aLidit and by using proprietary disclosure checklists. The susceptibility to siich material misstatement was determined to be low. Based on tliis understanding, we designed our aiidit procediires to ideiitify non-coinpliance with the identified legal and regulatory frameworks, whieli were part of our pi'ocediires on tlie related financial stateiTbent items.

For example, tlie fiirtlier reinoved non- coinpliaiice witli laws and regulations (irregularities) is from tlie eveiits and transactions reflected in tlie fiiiaiicial statemeiits, the less likely the iiiliereiitly liinited pi'ocedures required by aLiditiiig standards would identify it. In addition, as wilh any audit, there remaiiied a hiolier risk of iioii-detection of irreoularities, as these may iiivolve collusioii, foTgery, intentioiial omissioiis, In isrepresenlations, oi. tlie override of intenial controls. We are iiot Itsponsible for preventiiig iion-coinpliaiice and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws aiid regiilations. As part of ali audit in accoTdance with ISAS (UK), we exercise professional judgfflent and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also= I dentify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the fiiiancial statemeiits, wliether due to fraud or ei'ror. desigii aiid perform audit Procedures responsive to those i-isks. and obtsiii audit evideiice that is sufficient aiid appropriate to provide a basis for our opiiiioii.

THE RAPHAEL FRESHWATER MEMOIUAL ASSOCIATION LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 23. ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (i) Property valuation The valuation of the Group's property portfolio is inlierently subjective, depending on many factors, including the individual nature of each property, its location and expected future net rental values, market yields and comparable market transactions (as set out in Note l O). Therefore the valuations are subject to a degree of uncertainty and are made on the basis of assumptions which may not prove to be accurate, particularly in periods of difficult market or economic conditions. As noted in Note l above, all the Group's properties are valued by external valuers with appropriate qual ifications and experience. (i i) Unlisted investments valuation The valuation of the Group's unlisted investments is subjective, depending on many factors including compardtor dividend yields and net asset values, assumed rationale of prospective share pui'chaser& and the deeined impact of entity specific conditions on the aforementioned measures. Significant judgement is also required when selecting comparator companies to be included in the population from which expected yields and discounted net asset values are derived. Therefore, the valuation is subject to a degree of uncertainty and is made on the basis of assumptions which may noi prove to be accurate, particularly in periods of difficult market or economic coiiditions. (iii) Trade debtors Management uses details of the age of trade debtors and the status of any disputes together with external evidence of the credit status of the counterparty in makintro judgements concernino any need to impair the carrying values. 33
