Dear Mrs Harrison,
Please hereby find confirmation that the accounts for the year 19/20 have been audited and comply with current HMRC Charity Commission legislation.
As always I would seriously recommend using a basic accounting software package.
This would save hours of time and money, I would be happy to discuss this further with you and your Chairman, I am happy to come up and demonstrate how it works.
Should you require any other information please do not hesitate to contact me.
Assuring your best attention at all times,
