Charity Name: Friends of Eastwick Schools Registration Number: 1093294 Address: Eastwick Schools, Eastwick Drive, Great Bookham, KT23 3PP Trustees: Kate Harris, Nikki Dillon, Emma Scattergood, Kelley Sweetman Date: 2020 - 2021
Structure, Governance and Management:
The Friends of Eastwick Schools refers to the group of parents who work together in a volunteer capacity to raise money for the school, to enable it to fund resources over and above those covered by its budget.
There is a formal, elected committee running the day-to-day affairs of the organisation – which comprises a Chair, a Treasurer, Secretary and 1 other Trustee. In addition there is a group of un-elected parents who work with the formal committee to shape and deliver a programme of events and activities during the school year – all with the specific purpose of raising funds, which will be spent within the school for the benefit of the children.
The committee plus additional volunteers (all school parents and carers are welcome to attend any of the meetings and there is usually a core of 5-10 regular attendees plus other parents who attend when they can) meet on a half-termly basis to review the progress of the whole event and activity programme for that term and to start to plan events happening the following term. However, in this difficult pandemic year, more informal on-line video meetings have been held. There is also an Annual General Meeting, held during the autumn term (usually in October) to which all parents and carers are also invited and specific sub-committee meetings held, as required, to plan and deliver specific events such as the Christmas or Summer Fair, Fireworks Night or the Summer BBQ.
The type of events and activities run by the Friends include, but are not restricted to, seasonal Fairs, a Fireworks celebration, an annual BBQ, second hand uniform sales, cake sales, children’s discos and sponsored Trainer Trek. In addition to the core group of Friends planning, organising and delivering these events many of the schools’ parents and carers are involved in volunteering ‘on-the-day’ to make them happen.
On average, the charity raises around £25,000-£30,000 every year for the benefit of the children currently attending both the Infant and Junior Schools. However, in this difficult pandemic year, our fund raising has been significantly reduced as events have had to be cancelled and / or delayed.
This money is spent on short to medium-term projects either suggested by the school (for example playground equipment, reading books and PE equipment) or identified as an opportunity by the Friends as being of benefit to the maximum number of children.

Independent examiner's report on the accounts
Section A Independent Examiner’s Report
Report to the The Friends of Eastwick Schools trustees of
31 July 2021 Charity 1093294 On accounts for the no (if year ended any)
Set out on pages 1 to 2
Respective The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the responsibilities of accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not trustees and required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 examiner
-
required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
-
Basis of independent My examination was carried out in accordance with general examiner’s Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination statement 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 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 fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my examiner's attention statement 1. 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 Charities Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act
have not been met; or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
