Respectlve The charity's Irustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounls.
responsibilities of The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year
trustees and examlner under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) 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
Charity Commission (under section 145{51{b} of the Charities Act, and
to state whether particular Matte￿ have come to my attention.
Basis ol Independent My examination was (2rried out in accordance with general Dire(Xions grven
examine￿$ statement by the Charity 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 any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not
provide all the eviden￿ 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 sel out in the
statement below.
Independent In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention
examiner's statement
1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect.
the requirements..
lo keep accounting records in accordance wrth section 130 of the
Charities Act; and
to prepare accounls which accord with the accounting records and
compty with the accounting requirements of the Charth"es Act
have not been met., or

proper understanding of Ihe accounts to be reached.
