INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRL'STEES OF
BRICKHILL COMMUNITY CENTRE
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021. which are set out on pages four to five,
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 2011 Act)
and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act,
-to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission
under section 145(5)(b) of the 201 l Act; and
-to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the 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 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 no opinion is given as to whether the aexounts present a 'true and fair view and the
report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my e￿inatIOn. no matter has come to my attention:
(l ) 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 201 l Act. and
-to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the
accounting requirements of the 2011 Act
have not been met. or
(2) to which. in my opinion. attention should b¢ drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of
the accounts to be reached.
