The charlty's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charlty's trustees
conslder that an audit Is not required for thls year under sectlon 144(2) of the Charitles Act 2011
(the 2011 Att) 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 Charlty Commlssion
under sertion 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
to state whether partlcular matters have come to my attentlon.
Basis of Independent examinerfs statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Dlrections glven by the Charity
Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity
and a comparison of the accounts p￿sented with those records. It also includes consideratlon of
any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees
conceming any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provlde all the evidence that
would be required in an audit. and consequently no oplnion 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 statements
below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination. no matter has come to my attention..
l. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in. any material respect, the requlrements
to keep accounting records In accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act: and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the
accounting requlrements of the 2011 Act
have not been met. or
2. to which, in my oplnlon, attentlon should be drawn In order to enable a proper understanding
of the accounts to be reached.
