## **Trustees’ Report for the year ended 30th June 2022** 

The Choir has had a mixed year, partly because Covid restrictions, which had begun to be lifted, returned in some measure during the Christmas 2021 period. When rehearsals had resumed in Summer 2021, the number of attendees began to build up during the autumn, and by Spring 2022 we were regularly getting 40 attendees at rehearsals. Congratulations must again go to our Musical Director, Johnny Kilhams, for finding creative ways to keep us going. 

Our total paid up membership was similar to last year, and our numbers were boosted by Come and Sing recruitment days in September 2021 and January 2022. We would hope to continue to recruit new members at future Come and Sing evenings. 

We are sad to record the deaths of two of our members during the year, Richard Matthews and Peter Howell, who was the Bass representative. Both were enthusiastic members who we greatly miss. 

We were at last able to perform almost a full programme of concerts this year. Our Autumn concert was unusual in allowing free admission, and we asked for donations from attendees, which helped raise a small profit. The Christmas concert was very nearly interrupted by the Omicron virus, but we just managed to get it done before a brief spell of lockdown. We returned to more regular concerts in January 2022, and altogether held 7 concerts during the year, including a day trip to Adlestrop near Chipping Norton in the Cotswolds in June 2022, plus two Come and Sing evenings. We have now moved to St Paul’s Church in Addlestone for our regular Spring and Autumn fund raising concerts. 

Centenary celebrations, in this our 101[st] year, mostly took place on the trip to Cornwall at the Festival of Male Voices, where the choir entered the competition, and was placed a creditable 7[th] ? Of course, our Spring Concert was our first proper Centenary celebration. 

All Choir activities have been administered by Choir and Committee members on a voluntary basis and no payments of any kind have been made to Choir or Committee members or Trustees other than reimbursement of expenses incurred on behalf of the Choir. 

The Trustees have approved the Trustees’ Report above.

## **Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees and Members on the Accounts set out on pages 5 to 7 for the year ended 30th June 2022** 

## **Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner** 

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 basis of procedures specified in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 43(7)(b) of the Act, whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner’s Report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions 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 those records.  It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees 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. 

## **Independent Examiner’s Statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention 

- 1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements 

   - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act; and 

   - • to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the Act 

have not been met; or 

- 2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
