Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

Achievements and performance

This last year has been a tough year for the charity and trustees to navigate.

Despite a tough year we have managed to invest into new and pre-owned equipment for the setting as well as improved outdoor equipment including the provision of new planters which both serve the purpose of making the playground safer but offer children the opportunity to grow their own vegetables.

We have continued to invest in training and ICT equipment for the setting.

The investment has helped improve the quality and welcoming nature of our offering in challenging times.

We have continued to invest in a website to provide both an online present but provide parents with ease of access to our policies and procedures along with access to home learning resources during the pandemic when we were closed.

Independent examiner's report on the accounts

Section A Independent Examiner’s Report

Report to the trustees/ Charity Name members of Healey Pre School On accounts for the year 31 March 2023 ended Set out on pages

Charity no 1041877 (if any)

(remember to include the page numbers of additional sheets)

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:

examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, 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 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 the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention examiner's statement (other than that disclosed below *)

which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act
have not been met; or
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
Please delete the words in the brackets if they do not apply.
