vulnerability and isolation of older women. It will cr¢at¢ a space wh¢r¢ th¢y can meet others in similar
circumstances to themselves and together they will have opporLuniti¢s to develop practical skills and gain

Our rc5ponsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives ar¢ to obtain Teasonable assurance about whether thc financial statements as a whole are frec
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors
that includ¢s QUT opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but As not a guarantee that an
audit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a iiiaterial inisslatement when it exists.
Misstaleiiients can arisc froni fraud or crror aiid are considered inaterial if, individually or in th¢ aggregate,
they could reasonably be expected to influence th¢ economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these
financial statements.
The extent to which our Procedures are capable of detecting irregulariti¢s, including fraud is detailed bclow..
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-coinpliance with laws and regulations. We design
proccdurcs in lin¢ with our responsibilities, outlined abovc, to det¢¢t material misstatcments in respect of
irregularities, including fraud. In particular, we looked at wh¢re management made subjective judgements,
for exaiiiple in respect of accouiitiiig estiinatcs that iiivolved making assuniptions and considering futur¢
events that are inherently uncertain. We also considered potential financial or other pressures, opportunity
and motivations for fraud. As part of tliis discussion, wc identifjed the internal controls established to
mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations and how management monitor
these proccsses. Appropriate procedures included thc review and testing of manual journals and key
cstimatcs and judgcments made by manag¢m¢nt for risk of fraud.
Based on our understanding of the company and irldustry, we identified thc principal risks of
non-compliance with laws and i-egulations as those that have a direct impact on the deteiinination of matei-ial
amounts and disclosures in the financial ststements.
We evaluated managemcnt's incentives and opportunitics for fraudulent manipulation of the financial
statements and identified the greatest potential for fraud. W¢ coi]llnunicated the id¢ntified laws and
regulations throughout the audit team aiid reinaincd alert to any indications of non-conipliance throughout
the audit. Audit proccdures perfomied included, but w¢re not limited to:
Discussions with management including consideration of known or suspected instances of
non-coinplianc¢ with laws and regulation and fraud.
Reviewing the financial statement disclosur¢s and testing to supporting documentation.
Revi¢w of board meeting minutes of those charged with governance.
In addressing the T15k of fraud through manag¢ment ove￿Ide of controls, testing the appropriateness of
journal entries and oth¢r adjustments.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAS (UK), we exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional sccpticism throughout the audit. Wc also:_
Identify and assess the risks of material niisstatement of the financial stateinents, whether due to fraud OT
eTTor. design and perforn] audit proc¢dures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidenc¢ that is
sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
The risk of not detecting a material
misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from erTQT. as fraud may involve collusion,
forgery, intentional omissions, misrepTesentations, or th¢ override of int¢rnal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circuinstances, but not for tlie purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
charities internal control.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Basis of preparing the financial statements
Grants payable to third parties are within the chaTltable objeclives. Where unconditional grants are
offered, this is accrued as soon as the recipient is notified of the grant, as this gives rise to a
reasonable expectation that the recipient will receive the grants. Where grants are conditional relating
to perfonnance then the grant is only accrued when any Un￿lfilled conditioiis arc outside of the
control of the charity.
{e) Support costs allocation
Support costs are those that assist the work of the charity but do not di¥ectly repr¢s¢nt charitable
activities and include office costs, governance costs. administrative payroll costs. They are incurred
directly in support of expcnditurc oil thc objccts of the charity and include project inanagciiicnt
carried out at Headquarters. Where support costs cannot bc directly attributed to particular headings
they have becn allocated to cost of raising funds and expenditure on cliaritable activities on a basis
consistent with use of the resources. Premises overheads have been allocated on an insert detail basis
and other overheads have been allocated on a basis consistent witli the use of resources.
Fund-raising costs are thosc incU￿ed in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs
of disscminating information in support of thc charitablc activities.
(fj Tangible r￿ed assets
Tangible fixcd asscts arc statcd at cost Icss accumulated depreciation and accumulated impainnent
losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of op¢rating as intended.
Dcpreciation is provided on all tangible fixed ass¢ts, at rates calculated to write off the cost, l¢ss
estimated residual value, of each asset on a systematic basis over its expected useful life &s follows:
Buildings
Fixtures & Fittings
IOO/o Straight Line
25% Straight Line
(g) Financial Instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the charity b¢comes a party to the
contractual provision of the instnlment.
Basic financial instrnments are initially recognised at th¢ amounts receivable or payable including any
related transaction costs.
Current assets and current liabiliti¢s ar¢ subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration
expected to be paid or reliv¢d and not discounted.
Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Where investnients in shaTes are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwis¢ b¢ measured
reliably> the investment is subsequently measured at fair value with changes iii fair value recognised

Basis of preparing the financial statements
Other financial instruments. including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value, unless
paym¢nt for an asset is dcfcrred beyond nonnal business teniis or finaiic¢d at a rate of interest that is
not a market rat¢, in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the fil￿re paymenls
discounted at a market rate of iiitercst for a similar debt instrument.
Other financial instruinents are subsequently measurcd at fair value witli any changes recognised in
the statement of financial activitLeS, Wlth the exception of hedging instruments in a designed hedging
relationship.
Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of
iinpainnent at the end of each reporting date. if there is objective evidence of inipainnent an
impairment loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the stateinent of financial activities in
which the initial gain is recognised.
For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other fiiiancial assets tliat are individually
significant, these are assessed individually for impairn]cnt. Other financial assets are eithcr assesscd
individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics.
Any reversals of impairnient are recognised imm¢diat¢ly, to th¢ extent that the reversal does not result
in a canying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carying amount would hav¢ b¢¢n
had the impaim]¢nt not previously been recognised.
(h) Impairment
Assets not rn¢asured at fair value are reviewed for any indication that the asset may be impaired at
each balanc¢ sheet date. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, or the asset's
cash generating unit, is cstiinated and coinpared to the carrying ainount. Where th¢ catrying aniount
exceeds its ￿COverable amount, an impairnient loss is recognised in profit or loss unless th¢ ass¢t is
carried at a revalued ainount wh¢rc the impainncnt loss is a rcvaluation dccrcase.
(i) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the charity has an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a
past event, it is probable that an outflow of ¢conomic bcncfits will be required in settlement and the
amount can be reliably estimated.
(i) Leases
Assets acquired under financ¢ l¢as¢s are capitalized and depreciated over the shorter of the lease tenn
and the expected useful life of the asset. Miniinum lease paymcnts arc apportioned between thc
finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding l¢as¢ liability using the effective interest method.
The r¢lated obligations, net of future finance charges. are included in creditors.
Rentals payable and receivable under operating leases are charged to the SOFA on a straight line basis
over the period of th¢ lease.
(k) Tax
No provision is r¢quir¢d for taxation as thc company is defined as a charity for taxation purposes.
