Actl, and

Basis of Independent Examinerfs Statement
My examination wa5 carried out in accordance with general directions given by the Charity
Commi55ion. An examination includes a review of the accounting record5 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 prO￿d￿reS 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
'true and fairf view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the Statement below.
Independent Examinerfs statement
In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me
cause to believe that in, any material respect:

the records do not accord wtth the accounting records
I have no concern5 and have come across no other matters in connettion with the examination to
which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper undersianding of the accounts to be
