support throughout the re-opening phase and for a period of a further years, also funded from the

In her opening speech Eilish McGuinness was enthusiastic on the achievements of the project." "It has been
fantastic to watch the progress of Èhe Ragged School Museum, seeing this project transform from the
earliest stages of planning for funding, to developAng ideas, facing and ov6rcoming challerFges, and
emerging with heritsge notjust saved and intact, butinvlgorated and wAth 8 fresh perspective..
Lord Shaftesbury followed in footsteps of the 7th Eart who opened Thomas Barnardo's Mission Hall at the
Edinburgh Castle in 1873. G(Jests induded a rollcall of the many people who have supported the Museum
since the 1980s- trustees, staff, actors, volunteers, project team members and craftsmen. It is no small
achievement for a small organisalion to steer a major NLHF funded project through to a successful
conclusion. The opening was concluded by a joyous paty, the opportunity to thank those who have worked
with energy, CDmmitment and determination for over a decadè to save and enhance a remarkable building
with an extraordinary hislory.
In the lead-up to Ihe opening final elements were completed.. Saskia Hunning worked on the historic
pain￿Ork, on the second ',loor, Clarisse d'Arcimoles set up her installation Forgotten Tale on the second

Flnancial Review
The completion of the building project has set the Museum on a solid path to transform the operations and
secure long term financial sustainability of the organisation. New revenue streams have been gener8ted
from Offi￿ space rental, introducing admission charges to {increased number ofj visitors, a beller shop and
the new cafélrestaurant. Venue hire income is also being developed and represents a considerable further
potential as the Museum establishes itself as an attractive choice for business and private events.
The Trustèes operate a reserves policy whereby the free reserves held by the Trust should be approximately
three months expenses, which equates to approximately £78.OIX) based on post-opening year annual
operating expenditure. This would enable current activities to continue in the short term should funding drop
Si9nificantly.
At present thè free reseryes of £94,605, reach this tsrget. In calculating reserves, the Trustees have
excluded from lotal funds the restricted income funds of £4.684,115.
Both the policy and ils implementation are under regular scrutiny.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
Oplnlon

of its incoming resources and application of resour￿8, including its income and expenditure, for
the yearthen ended.,
have been properly prepared in accordan￿ with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting
Practice.. and
have been prepared in accordance wilh Ihe requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basls for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordan￿ wth Intemational Standards on Auditing (UK) {ISAs (UK)} an
applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's
responsibilities for the aijdit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the

statements in the UK, including the FRC'S Ethical Standard, and we have ftjlfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have
obtsined is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relatlng to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have conduded that the trustees, use of the going concern basis of
accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material Un￿rtainties relating to events
or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company'5 ability
to continue as a going concem for a period of at least ￿e1ve monlhs from when the financ5al statements
are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the truslees wth respect to going concern are descfibed in
Ihe relevant sections of this report.

this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-complian￿ with laws and regulations. We design
procedures in line wlh our responsibilitie5, oullined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of
irregularities. including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities,
including fraud is detailed beli)w'.
Enquiry of management and those charged with governance about actual and potential litigation or
claims and the idenlification of nofvcompliance with laws and regulations.
Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with govemance.
Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documèntation to assess
compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Auditing the risk of management override of controls, inclL¢ding testing journal entries and other
adjustments for appropriatenes5,' assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting
estimates are indicative of a potential bias,. and evaluating the business rationale of any significant
transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business.
Performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may
indicate risks of material misstatemenl due to fraud.
Professional scepticism in course of the audit and wilh audit sampling in material audit areas.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit. there is a risk that we will not detect all irregulartties, including
those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non<ompliance 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-
complian￿. The risk is also greater regarding irregularilies occurring due to fraud rather than e￿Or, as
fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or mi5repre5entation.
