## **TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR YEAR END DEC. 2022** 

During the year we continued with our up-grade of an empty commercial property which needed extensive work carried out. As at the end of the financial year, this work still continues, and our proposed tenant awaits its completion. 

We have continued with our support for local students attending university and further education in the sum of £10,200, also four local hospices and two charities in the sum of £7500.00 together with other local donations 

. 

We also continue to support St.Mary’s Church at Puttenham by way of churchyard maintenance, quinquennial fees etc., a total of £5650 during the past year.  The quinquennial work will be carried out in 2023 and this will also be covered by the Puttenham Trust. 

_Trustees:  Dr. E.M.C Ernst, Mrs. L. Elliott, Mrs. C. Rutter, Mr. E.G. Rutter, Mr.T._ Watson _Mr. O. C. Matthews_

## **Independent examiner's report on the accounts** 

## **Section A                        Independent Examiner’s Report** 

**Report to the trustees/** Charity Name The Puttenham Trust **members of On accounts for the year** 31[st] December 2022 **Charity no** 1050953 **ended (if any) Set out on pages** 1 to 2 1 to (remember  to include the page numbers of additional sheets) 

- **Respective** The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. 

- **responsibilities of** The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year 

- **trustees and examiner** 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 **examiner’s statement** 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 *) 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.
