## INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF
## TURKISH YOUTH COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION
## ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDING 28™ FEBRUARY 2025
## 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 an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
- e Examine the Accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act
- e Follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145 (5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
- e 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 | do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.
## Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention
- (1) Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements: e To keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act and;
- e To prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act
- have not been met; or
- (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached
