Respective responslbilities The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The
of trustees and examiner 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 My examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given by the
examiner's ststement 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 fairf view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement
below.
Independent examlnerfs In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention..
statement 1. 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
2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper
understanding of the accounts to be reached.
