About Audit Yorkshire
Audit Yorkshire is hosted by York and Scarborough Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and supported by a consortium of NHS statutory bodies (its Members).
We have extensive knowledge and experience of all forms of NHS organisations. We are also the Internal Audit and Counter Fraud services provider for two newly established Integrated Care Boards. We use this extensive experience to provide an innovative and cost-effective service to clients that is adaptive to the many challenges and changes they face. We aim to be a catalyst for a good corporate governance culture.
We provide comprehensive services to our Members and clients that supports the achievement of their objectives and fulfils regulatory and statutory obligations. In doing so, we constructively challenge existing governance and control arrangements, and actively seek to innovate to ensure the best outcomes.
All services are provided in complete compliance with legal and professional standards. Our quality systems ensure that there is a robust system of review and control to monitor this in real time. Audit Yorkshire’s most recent external quality review was undertaken by CIPFA which confirmed that we fully conform with the Public Sector Internal Audit Standards (PSIAS).
We have a strategic partnership with The Internal Audit Network (TIAN), a collaborative body of NHS Internal Audit providers. This allows us to share best practice and undertake national benchmarking projects. Audit Yorkshire is also a founding member of the NHS Counter Fraud Managers Group, which represents Local Counter Fraud Specialists (LCFSs) from over 120 health bodies across England. The purpose of the group is to contribute to the continuing development of the anti-crime quality assurance programme.
