# **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Old Stratford Pre-School Playgroup Charity Number 1033454**
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts for the year ending 31st July 2024 ,which are set out on pages 2-3.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity trustees of the Pre-School you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ( ' the act ' ).
I report in respect of my examination of the Pre-School's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5 )(b) of the Act.
## **Independent examiner’s Statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect :
1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Pre-School as required by section 130 of the Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with the accounting records.
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 in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
