## **Respective responsibilities of Trustees and examiner:** 

The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act), as amended by s.28 of the Charities Act 2006) and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts (under s.43 of the Act, as amended) 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity 

- Commission (under s.43(7)(b) of the Act, as amended), and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention 

## **Basis of independent examiner's statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review if the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented to those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanation from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required for an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- 1 which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material aspect, the trustees have not met the requirements to ensure that: proper accounting records are kept (in accordance with s.41 of the Act); and accounts are prepared which agree to the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act; 

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