Responslbllltles of
As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the
commlttee and examiner accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section
144 of the Charities Act 2011 and that an independent examination is
needed.
It is my responsibility to:
Examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
To follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by
the Charitles Commission {under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities
Act, and
To state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basls of independent My examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given
examiner's statement by the Charities Commission. An examination includes a review of the
accounting records kept by the Charity and a comparison of the accounts
presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual
items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from the
trustees concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken do not
provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and
consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true
and fair view. and the report is limited to those matters set out below.
Independent I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have
examlnerfs statement come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me
cause to believe that in, any material respect..
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130
of the Charities Act; or
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records., or
the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements
concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities
(Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement
that the accounts give a 'true and fair. view which is not a matter
considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection
with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report to
enable a proper understsnding of the accounts to be reached.
