The range of Depaul's seNices, induding ourtemporary accommodation, community seNices and day Centre in UDerry, have been at the forefront of dealing with these consequences, th increased drug and alcohol use, povety and ment81 health difficulties being features of our work. Depaul 81s0 rose to the challenges presented by the war in Ukraine. I would like to recognise the traumatic year that our colleagu88 In Depaul Ukraine have experienced and Depaul in Northem Ireland managed to raise badly needed funds to support their humanitanan work for intemally displacéd people. The cost of living crisis has particularly affected our service users in the communty and we worked with others in the voluntary and community sector, as well as using our fundraised income, to alleviate the Impact of these financial pressures. This has resulted in preventing lenancy breakdown for many households and making sure that people could stay warni over the winter, including those most vulnerable and children. I would like to thank our Board of Tru8tee8, who come from a wide range of backgrounds, for their ts'me, skills and professionalism. Under their leadership, Depaul continues to extend the reach of our 8ervi¢es to people who are homeless whilst meeting the highest governance and financial standards. In addition, I would like to commend our executive and senior leadership group for their professional dedirAtion to ending homelessness in Northem Ireland. My deepest gratitude must be extended to our employees who, in the most challenging of times, have maintained servlces of the hlghesl quallty. It is imperative that govemment Ilstens to and acts on the sectorfs call for faimess and equity in the treatment of our workforce. In 2022 Supporting People funding increased for the first time in 14 years which meant that some improvements cculd be made to staff tems and conditlons. Ajongside this Depaul engaged in a major restructuring of our services. l am confident that the changes we have made in the last year wll enable us to ba more robust and resilient in working towards ending homelessnoss In Northem Ireland. And finally, I would like to slncerely thank our r8nge of statutory funder8. grant making bodies, businesses and the public for the continued support of the organisation and helplng us succe$sfvlly negotiate another challgnglng year.

The ultimate parent company 1$ Depaul Intemational. The Depaul Group of charities came about as a joint response by thr88 organisations to the rise ol youth homelessness in the late 1980's in London. These were the Daughters of Charity of St Vincent de Paul, the Society of St Vincent de Paul and the Passage Day Centre. All three owe their vision, mission and values to the life and work of St Vincent de Paul. a great social and spiritual reforner In 17th century France. They ar8 part of 8 global network of charitable and religious organisations known collectively as the Vincentian Family. St Vincent de Paul believed in action rather than words, in taking risks to help the poor, and in finding new ways to deal with old problem8. Atthough Depaul International 18 independent of these founding organisations, it continues tD Vrk closely with them and other members of the Wincentian Family globally. The Depaul Group is recognised as being part of the Wincentian Family in its own right, working incluslvely wth homeless and disadvantaged p6ople of all faiths and none, which is rèflected in the makeup of its employees, volunteers and Trustees. Depaul Intemational now operates In Ireland, United Kingdom, USA. Ukralne, Slovakla, Croatia and France. Depaul came to the Republlc of Ireland in 2002 on the invitation of both the Irlsh Govemment and the Mncentlan Family In Ireland. There was an unmet need at the time, in particular for those with very complex needs who found it difficutt to access and maintain accommodation Servi due to thelr lrfestyie.

Extent to whlch th8 audlt was con$ld8red capablo of detsctlng Irregularltle8, Includlng fraud
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We Identified and
assessed the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements from irregularities, whether due to fraLKI or
error, and discussed these between our audit team members. We then designed and performed audit proceduras
responsive to those risks, induding obtsining audit evidence sulficient and approprfate to provlde a basis for our
oplnion.
We obtainad an understandlng of the legal and regulatory fraMe¥rkS within which the charity operates, focusing
on those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures
in the financSal statements. We assesseLI the required compliance w¢th these la and regulations as part of our
audit procedures on the related financial statement items. In addition, we considered provisions of other laws and
regulats'on8 that do not have a direct effect on the financial ststements but compliance with which might b8
ndamental to the charity's ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty. We also considered the opportunitle8
and incentives that may exist within the charity for fraud.
Auditing stsndards limrt the required audrt procedures to identify non-compliance with these18ws and regulatlons
to enquiry of the directors and other management and inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, rf any.
We identified the greatest risk of material impact on the financial statements from irregularities, including fraud, to
be within the timing and completeness of recognIOn ol grant and contract inwme and major donations and the
override of controls by management. Our audit procedures to respond to the86 risks included enquiries of
management and the Audit Committ88 about their own identiflcation and assessment of the risks of irregularities,
testing Dfa sarnple oftransactions against the temis of the funding agreements and the requirement of the Charities
SORP (FRS102), sample testing on the posting ofjoumals, reviewing accounting estimates for biases and reading
mlnutes of meetings of those charged with govemance.
Ovng to the inherent Ilmit8tions of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some
materi81 misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have propedy planned and perf0rn8d our audit
in accordance with audiung standards. In addttion, as with any audit, there remainod a higher risk of non4etection
of Irregularitlgs, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omls8ions, misrepresentations, or the ovemde
of inlemal controls. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-
compliance wlth all Saws and regulations.
