Audltorn. rasponslbilitl•• for thg aud* of thè flnanclal 8taternènts
Our t)bjectives are lo obtain r8asonable assurance about wheth&r the financial statèmènts as a bthole are free

opinion. Reasonab￿ a55UTanc8 15 a high level of assurance. but Is not a guarantee that an audit Conducted in

expected to Influ8nc8 the ecoTh)mlc declslons of users tak8n on fv basls of these financlal gtalements.
Irregularltlgs, In¢kJdlng fraud, are In$￿CeS of nonwcompllancg wlth laws and regulatlons. W8 des1￿ pro¢adures
In Ilne wlth our re8pon8lbllitl89, outlln8d abovè, to d8tect materfal ml$ststements In réspoct of Irr8gul8rMe8,
induding fraud. The extent to ￿1¢h proc8durés are capable of detedng Irregularlti6s. inckjding fraud 18
detBi18d below.
Our approach to Identifying and assessing the rlsk5 of matarlal mlsstatament in resp8ct of irrègulaiities, incI￿[ng
fr8ud and non-compllanc8 wlth laws and regulatlons, was as follows.
The 8ngag8mènt partner ensured that the engagement téam ¢ollectiv8ly had the appropriat8 comp6l8nce,
capabilit185 and skills to identify or recognise noTrcompllance with aptAic8ble laws and regulalions. As part of the
audit in accordance with ISAS (UK) we exerclsed professional Judgement and maintained FKof8ssional
skeptlclsm throughout the audtt. We hjenlffied the laws and regulations appllcabl8 to the company through
dlscusslorB with directors and other management. gnd fr(wn our commorcial knowledge and experlence of tl
sector and we focused on speclflc laws and regulatlon8 whlth we ¢on81dered may have a dlr8Ct m8terlal effect
on th& fnancial statemenls or the opèratlons of the company. including tho Companies Act 2006, Chariti88 Act,
tsxatw)n legislation and data protection, antl-brlbery, employmenl, environmentsl and hèalth and s8f8ty
legislation.
We assessed the susceptlblllty of the companrfB flnancl81 ststoments to m8tert81 ml8Statement. Includlng
obtaining an understanding of how fraud mlghl occur, by making enquiri88 of managém8nt as to where they
¢onsidergd there was susceptibility to fraud, thelr knovAedge of actual. susp8cl8d and all8g8d fraud and
¢onsiderirvJ the inlemal controls in pl8Cè to mitlgate rtsks of fraud and non-compli8nc8 wilh18ws and r￿ulatIOnS.
We obtained an urKlerstanding of intemal controls relevant to the audit in order lo design audit procedures that
were approprl8te In the cIr￿M5￿nceS but not for the purpose of expresslng an oplnlon of Ihe effectlveness of
the Compan18 Intern81 controls.
To address Iho risk of fraud through manag8m8nt bias and overrwje of contro18. w& perfom)ed analWlcBI
prc¢8dur8s lo identify any unusual or unexpected r81ationshriS: 19Sted joumal entries to identify unusual
transactions. evaluated the approprlateness of accounting poI￿leS used, including managements, use of the
golng concem basls of eccountlng. and the reasonablenes5 of accountlng estlmates and related dlsclosures
mad8 by management; and Investlgatsd the ratlonale behlnd slgnlficant or ￿usUal transathns.
In response 10 th8 risk of irr8gularltie$ and non-¢omFAlanc8 with laws and reg￿atiOnS. we dasigned procedures
which includ8d but were not limited to agreelng flnancial statément dis¢losures to underfying suppcrting
document8tbJn,' reading the minLrtes of meetlngs of t￿r)SO charged wth govemance,. and enquiriTh3 of
management as to actual and potentlal Iltlgatlon and clalms.
Becaus8 of the Inhér8nt Ilmltatlons of an audlt. there Is a rtsk that wè not dete¢t all Irregularltles, Includlng
those leading to a material misstalemenl in the financial Statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk
Increases Ihe more that compliance wth a law or regulaticm is removed from the events and transactions
r&fleGled in thg financial statements. as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of l￿-¢0MplIanCe.
The rlsk Is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud Involves
Intentional wncealmenl. forgory. colluston, omission or misrepresgntauon.
