Age Concern in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly (Limited by Guarantee) Trading as Age UK Cornwall & the Isles of Scilly Independent auditors, report to the members of Age Concern in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly (Limited by Guarantee) In preparing the group financial statement5 and parent charitable company financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group'5 and parent charitable company's ability to continue 3S 3 going concern, di5c105ing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the group or the parent charitable comp3ny or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditorfs report that includes ouropinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arlse 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. Irregularities. including fraud. are instances of non-compliance wlth laws and regulatlons. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including f raud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below; We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the charity at the planning stage of the audit. The charity is subject to laws and regulations that directly affect the financia I statements, specifically the Companies Act 2006, Charities Act 2011 and Charities Statement of Recommended Practice. We assessed the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statement items. The charity is also s ubject to law5 a nd reg(Ilations where the consequences of non-compliance could have a material effect on amounts or disclosures in the financial statements, for instance through the imposition of fines or litigation or loss of the charity's ability to operate. In making this assessment we determined that the most significant elements of legislation include those relating to employment laws and regulation5, health and safety standards and compliance with grant funding contracts. Based on this understanding we designed our audit procedures to identify non-compliance with such laws and regulations. Our procedures Involved the following: Making enquiries of management regarding their knowledge of any non-compliance with such laws and regulations that could affect the financial Statements. As part of these enquiries. we also discussed with management changes in risk assessment relating to fraud, and whether there l)ave been any known instances, allegations or suspicions of fraud, of which there were none, Considering the filings made at Companies House and the Charity Commission, and any omlssion5 thereon, of which none were identified. Discussing with management compliance with health and safety legislation, including any reforms tothese, Making enquiries of management and reviewing charity expenditure for any evidence of disputes, artual or potential litigation and claims, with regulators or any other such body. Reviewing documentation from fund providers to test whether funds had been appropriately claimed and uti14sed for purposes as set out in the respective contract term5. 17
Age Concern in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly (Limited by Guarantee) Trading as Age UK Cornwall & the Isles of Scilly Independent auditors, report to the members of Age Concern in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly {Limited by Guarantee) Auditing the risk of management override of controls, including through testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness and evaluating the rationale for significant transactions outside the normal course of business activities, of which there were none. Reviewing estimates and judgements made in the financial statements for any indication of bias and challenged a55umptions used by management in making the estimates. Reviewing trustee meeting Minutes and correspondence with regulators to corroborate the findings from the above. Duetothe inherent limitations of an audit, there remains a risk that we may not have detetted some material mi5Statements in the financial statements or non-compliance with laws and regulations. This is despite the fact that we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. For example, the further removed irregularities are from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited procedures required by auditing standards would identlfy it. As with any audit, there remained a high risk of non-detection of irregularities, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentlonal omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. This risk was reduced by a thorough revlew of all controls in place that monitor items and transactions affecting the fina nclal statement5, The primary responsibility for the preventlon and detection of irrpgularities and f raud rests With the trustees of the charity. All relevant law5, regulations and significant risks of fraud identified have bee n clea rly communicated to each member of the audit engagement team. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations. A further description of our responslbilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on tlie Financial Reporting Council's webslte at www.frc.org.uVauditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report. Use of our report This reportls made solely to the charitable parent company's trustees, as a body, in accordance wilh Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companles Act 2006. Our audit work ha5 been undertaken so that we might state to the group's trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's 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 charitable parent company and its trustees as a body, for our audit work, for thls report, or for the opinions we have formed.
