Year ended 31 October 2024
we assessed the extent of ¢orn[Alan￿ with the Faws and regulations identifie(J al>)ve
through making enquiries of managemen* and InSp￿tIng ￿gaI Corresponden￿,. and
identified laws and regulations were cc¥nMun￿ted wthin the audit team regulaty and
the team remained alert lo Instan￿ of rnnvcomplwGe throughout the audit.
We assessed the SUs￿ptIbIIty of Ihe charTV5 finanual statements to material misstatement,
including obtaining an understanding of how fra￿ might cKcur. by..
making enquiries of rnana￿ent as to hthere they considered there was susceptibiltty to
fraud, their knowledge of*ual, suspected and alleged fraud,. and
considering the internal c4)ntrols in pkn to Mi￿date risks of fraud and non-CJ)mpii8nce
with laws and regulations.
Audlt response to rlsks klentHlad
To a(Jdress the risk offraud through management t¥as and oveffKle of ¢ontrcl4 we:
perfomied analytical procedures to Klenbfy any unusual or unexpected rdationships,.
tested jouinal entries to identify unusual tran$&tions.'
assessed whether judgements and &wmptions m￿e in deteminiThJ the acc￿nting
eslimales set (Njt in Note 1 were indutive of potential bias. and
ir¢vestigaled the rationale behind S￿nIficant or unusud transactions.
In resKthse to the rFsk of irregularitres arnl rN)n-Q)M￿lan￿ vlith laws and regulations.
designed procedures whrch included, but were not limited to..
agrring financial statement disck)sures to un(knlyirvJ suppx)rting d￿n￿ntat￿jn.
reading the minutes of meetings ofthose char￿d with govemance..
enquiring of management as to actual and wtenlial litigation and ctamns,. and
requesting any nc￿-rOU1Ine corresponden* wilh HMRC and OSCR.
There are inherent limitstions in our audit procedures described a￿Ve. The more removed that
laws and regulations are from financial transactK)ns. the less likely St is that we would become
awarE of mn-compliance. Aurfiting standards akn limit the aLKiit prO￿dureS required to identify
non-compliance with laws and regulations io enquiry of Ihe Trustees and other man￿ement and
the inspection of regulatory and legal correstL￿e￿e, if any.
Material ml$statements that arise due to traud can be harder lo deW than those that arise frcm
error as they may involve deliberate Co￿alment or cdlu&on.
