I have been appointed under the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the regulations made under section 145 of that Act. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts and statement, without performing an audit, and to report to the trustees. ## **Basis of Examiner’s Statement** This report is in respect of an examination carried out in accordance with the directions given by the Charity Commissioners under the Act). An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity trustees and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes a review of the accounts and making such enquiries as are necessary for the purpose of this report. The procedures undertaken do not constitute an audit. ## **Examiner’s Statement** Based on my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe, that in any material respect, accounting records have not been kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act 2011. or that the accounts presented do not accord with those records or comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act 2011. No matter has come to my attention in connection with my examination to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the accounts. In my opinion, the accounts are in agreement with the accounting records kept by the company under Section 221, and have regard only to, and on the basis of, the information contained in those accounting records, those accounts have been drawn up in a manner consistent with the provisions of this Act specified in subsection (6), so far as is applicable to the company. In my opinion, having regard to and on the basis of, the information contained in the accounting records kept by the company under section 221, the company as a charity satisfied the requirements of section 249A(5) for the financial year and did not fall within section 249B(1) (a) to (f) at any time within the financial year Paul Brown - King Independent Examiner 20 December 2025
