Understanding Independent Grant Auditing
Independent grant auditing is about making sure funding is spent transparently and in line with the rules. For social landlords, this means a detailed review of how grant money is allocated and used. From budgets and invoices to supporting documents and outcomes.
Our role is to provide a clear, unbiased view of the process, giving you the confidence that everything is on track and audit-ready, while helping you stay accountable to funders and your community.
