Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner's report and for no other

the charity and the charity's Trustees as a body, for my work or for this report.

and incarrying out myexamination Ihave followed theapplicable Directions given by the Charity Commission
under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
```

## **`Independent Examiner's Statement`**

Your attention is drawn to the fact that the Charityhas prepared the accounts in accordance with Accounting
and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their
accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland
(FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice

with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1
January 2015.

examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
```

`1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or` 

`2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or` 

`3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.` 

```
Ihave no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which
attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be
reached.
