In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
