Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Wellington (Somerset) & District Arts Association ('the
Company,)
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2025.
Respon5ibilitie5 and basis of report
As the charity's t￿SteeS of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for
the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of th¢ Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 ACV).
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Aot
and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charitys accounts as carried
out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (Yhe 2011 ACV). In carrying out my examination I have followed the
Directions given by the Charity Commission under S￿tiOn 145(5) (b) of the 201 l Act.
Independent examiner's ststement
I have completed my examination. I wnfirn) that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the

accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 ACL. or
the accounts do not accord with those records. or
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any
requirement that the accounts give a ttue and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent
examination" or
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of
Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by Charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts
in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).
I have no concerns and have come across no otheT matters in CODnection with the examinalion to which attention should
be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
