Following a detailed review of financial forecasts, reserves, and operational commitments, the
Trustees made the difficutt d6CtStort to start the clasurg of the clTarity. All stskehGlders,
beneficiaries, staff, and partners were informed, and the Board started to ensure that the
wind-down process complied with regulatory requirements and best practice.

IMDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF
KNOWSLEY CARERS CENTRE
l ￿port on the accounts of the charitable company for the year
ended 31st March 2025, which are set OLtt on pages 8 to 22.
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the
purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of
the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for
this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011
Act) arKt that an indeperKlent examination is needed.
It is my responsibilFty to: examine the accounts under section 145
of the 2011 Act, to follow the procedures laid down in the general
Directions gtven by the Charity Commission (under section
145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act, and to stste whether particular matters
have come to my attention.
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
Fncludes consideration of any unLisual 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
fairf view, and the report is limited to those matters set out in the
statement below.
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my
attention:
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material
respect, the requirements:
to keep accounting records in accordan￿ with section 386 of the
Companies Act 2006; and
to prepare accounts whith accord with the accounting records and
comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the
Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the
Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting
Charities
have not been met; or
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to
enable a proper understsnding of the accounts to be reached.
