INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF PARTRIDGE GREEN PRE-SCHOOL PLAYGROUP
Accounts for the Year Ended 31 May 2022
I report on the accounts of the trust for the year ended 31 May 2022 which are set out on pages 2 to 6.
As the Charity’s Trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts; you consider that the audit requirement of section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the act) does not apply.
It is my responsibility to state, on the bases of procedures specified in the General Direction given by the Charity Commissioner under section 43(7)(b) of the act, whether particular matters have come to my attention.
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Direction given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with these records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the Accounts, and seeking explanation from you as Trustee concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
In connection with my examinations no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements set below have not been met:
-
a) To keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act; and
-
b) To prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the Act.

TO THE MEMBERS AND TRUSTEES OF PARTRIDGE GREEN PRE-SCHOOL PLAYGROUP COMMITTEE
ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31[ST] MAY 2022
We have examined the financial statements in connection with the books, records and other information supplied.
The statement of income & expenditure stands at a substantial loss for the year due primarily to a cut in WSCC funding to the Charity compared to the prior year, as well as investment in equipment for the use in the running of the charity.
Following the approval of the Accounts at the Annual General Meeting the Accounts will be represented in a format required by the Charity Commission together with a full report from our office.
The General Revenue Reserve Fund stands at £27,845 compared with £50,543 for the preceding year.
