RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILrrIES OF TRUSTEES AND INDEPENDENT EXAMINER
-The. charity:s-tnJstees are.responsible..for-the-preparation-of__the-accounts.-_The-charity:s tru#ees-.... __.__
consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section IM(2) of the Charities Act 2011
(the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to..
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Art;
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission
under Section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 A¢ as amended; and
to state whether pa￿"Cular matters have come to my attention.
BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Clprity
Commission. An examination indudes a review of the accountlng 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 seeklng 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 oplnion on whethw the
accounts present a 'true and fair view,.
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT
In connection with my examination, rK) matter has come to my attention:
(l) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the trustees have not
met the requirements:
to keep accounting records are kept in accordan￿ with section 130 of the Act. and
• to prepare accounts which accord wlth the accounting records and comply wtth the
accounting requirements of the 2011 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.
