Dixon Wilson, a flrm of Chariered Accouncants of which l am a partner has provlded bookkeeping services to the Trust and I have applied the FRC'S Revised Ethical Sfandard in carrying out my examination. An independenc examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required In an audit and consequently does not cover all rhe matter5 rhan an auditor considers In giving their opinion on the accounts. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance Ihat an independent examination can provide. Consequently. l express no opinion as ro whether the accounts presenr a 'true and falr, view and my report is Ilmlted to those specific matters set out ill the independent examiner's statement. Independent examlner's statement l am qualified ¢0 undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales. I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material Matr5 have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: accountlng racords were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or the accounts do not accord wlth those records.
