I roport on th8 S￿oUnts of the ¢hority for the year ended 31 December 2022 which ar? set out on page5 110 5.
Respective responslbllltl¢$ of trustees and examlner
Th& GharEVs trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charty's Iruslees considèr that 3n
audit 1$ not required for this year lunder section 144121 of the Charits"es Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an
Independènt examination 15 needed.
It 15 my responsbility to..
examine accounts under section 145 of thè 2011 AGt'
to follow the procedures laid <bwn in the General Dir8Ctions given by the Charity Comrnisson under section
14515llbl of the 2011 Act., and
- to slate whether particular matters ha￿ ￿m¢ tts my 8tt6tttion.
8asls ol Independent examIne￿$ rèport
My 8xamination was c8iried ￿Jt ittr accordancé with Ihe Goneial Diieclions given by the Charity Commissioners.
An examination in¢lude5 a review of the accounting reC￿rdS kept by the charity and a comparistsn of thE accounts
presented with thos& recoids. 11 also includ88 consideration of any unusual items or disdosures in thé ac£ounts,
and sÈÈking explanatk)ns frtsm you 95 ttU5tees conc8ming any such m8tt&r$. The procedures undertaken do not
provide all th& ￿idence that would be r?quired In an audit. and consequently no opiiion is givtrn as to whether
the awounts present a and fair, view and thè raport is limited to thoso matters set out in th& 8tat*ment
b$low.
Independent examiner's statement
In connecti(￿ with my èxamination. no matt8r has thm& to my ￿ttent￿n which gives m8 reasonable ¢ause to
believe that In any material rÈsped that the requirements
- to keep racords in aGGordancewith $8ctK)n 130 of the 2011 Act-. and
lo prepare accounts which Sccord w￿h accountiru rgcord5 and comply wth the actt>unling requirements of
th8 2011 Aot
hav8 not been met.
No tnatter has coma to my attention in conneGtion wth my examinalioTh to which. in rny opinion, alt8nts.on shoulfl
wn in ordor to ¢nable a proper undetJf&fjdin9 of the accounts lo be rEatshvd.
