In our opinion, the financial statements: give a true and fair view of the state of the Charity's affairs as at 31 December 2024 and of its income and expenditure for the year then ended.. have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice., have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011. Basls for oplnlon We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAS {UK)} and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordar)ce with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statement5 in the UK, including the FRC'S Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate lo provide a basis for our opinion. Concluslons relatlng to golng concern In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees. use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial ststements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identtfied any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively. may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report_ Other InfoTrnatlon The other information comprises the information included in the trustees. annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon_ The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report_ Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other infomiation and. except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report. we do not express any form of assurance Gonclusion thereon. Our responsibilty is to read the other information and. in doing so. consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsislencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to detemiine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements Ihemsefves_ If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Page15 Independent Auditof s Report to the Trustees of Colel Chabad For the year ended 31 December 2024 Matters on whlch we are requlred to report by exceptlon In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit: we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees, annual report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if. in our opinion- adequate accounting records have not been kept or retums adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and retums., certain disclosures of trustees, remuneration specified by law are not made.. or we have not obtained all the information and explanations necessary for the purposes of our audit. Responslbllltlos of trustèés As explained more lully in the statement of trustees. responsibilities set out in the trustees, annual report, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the fsnancial statements and for being satisfied thal they give a true and fairview, and forsuch internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Audltorfs responslbllltles for the audlt of the flnanclal statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial ststements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error and to issue an auditor's report thal includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance bul is not a guarantee that an audil conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK} will always deted a material misstatement when it exists. Misslatements 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 statements. Irfegularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above. to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularilies, including fraud are set out below. Capablllty of thè audlt In det•ctlng Irregularltlos In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non- compliance with laws and regulations. our procedures included the following= We enquired of management. which included obtaining and reviewing supporting documentation. concerning the charity's policies and procedures relating to detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual. suspected, or alleged fraud We inspected Ihe minutes of meetings of those charged with governance. We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the charity operates in, focusing on those laws and regulations that had a matersal effect on the financial statements or that had a fundamental effect on the operations ofthe charity from our professional and sectorexperience. Page16 Independent AuditoVs Report to the Trustees of Colel Chabad For the year ended 31 December 2024 We reviewed the financial statement disclosures and tested these to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations. In addressing the risk of fraud through management ove￿Ide of controls, we tested the appropriateness ofjournal entries and other adjustments, assessed whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias and tested signrficant transactions that are unusual or those outside the normal course of business. Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment. forgery. collusion. omission or misrepresentation. A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uklauditorsresponsibilities. This description fomis part of our auditor's report. U80 of our rèport This report is made solely to the Charity's Tnjstees. as a body, in accordance with section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and the regulations made undersection 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Charity's Trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors, report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law. we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity's Trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
