Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. The Trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of at least one year from the approval of the accounts and have concluded that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and there are no material uncertainties at this time. Accordingly, the Trustees continue to adopt this basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
