Awdltor's responsibilities for the aydlt of the finaneièl thtements We have beeD appointed a_s audrtor under section 144 of the thèrities Art 2011 and report in aCttrdance with the Act and relevant regulations rnade or having effecl thereunder. Our objectlves are to obtaiTr reasonable assuTrrKe about v•hether the finanoal statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. to bssue an auditor's report that Includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high ￿¥t1 of asswaft￿ but is not a guarantee that an èudlt conducted In accordantt with ISA5 (UK) wrll always detect a materlal mlsstatement when it Éxlsts. Nisstatements can arisÈ from fraud or error and aFe consldered material if, Indlvldually or In the aogregate, they could reasonably be Èxpected to lThfiuence the economlc der151orbS of users taken w the basis tpf these financlal statemetbts.

We deslgn procedures In Ilne wrth our responsi)Illties. o￿lIned al)ove. to detett materiol misstalements In respect OF Irregularities. including fraud. The risk of nol detecting a material m155taternetht due to fraud Is hlgher than the risk of not detÈcting one resuliing from error as fraud may involve dellberate ￿nCealment , by for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations or through collusion. The extenl to which our procedures arè capable of detecknng irregtslarilies indudlng fraLwJ is detalled below. 0￿r approach was as follows: We understood how the charity Is complying with relevant frameworks by making enquirles ol monagement and those responsible for legal and compliance pro¥eLlures. We assessed the susceptibility of the Charrty's financial statements to material mi%statement includin9 how fraud tnlght occur by discusslng with the management and the board of trustees. We enquired of management as to any known instances of non-compllance or svspected non-compliance wlth laws and regulations. Based on this understand6￿ we de￿gned spedfic èudlt procedures to Identify instances of non-compliance with lavrfs and regulatlons. This included maknng enqu¢ries of management and obtaining additional orroboraiive evidence as required.
