THE JOSH CHARITABLE TRUST
I have examined the flnanclal statements on pages S to 8 which have been prepared under the
historical cost convention and the accountin8 policies set out on page 7.
Respectlve responslbillties of trustees and examiner
As described on page 2 you are responsible as trustees for the preparation of the financial
statements. you consider that the audit requirements of Section 43(21 of the Charltles Act 1993 (the
Act) does not apply. It Is my responsibility to state on the basis of procedures speclfled In the
General Dlrections given by the Charlty Commissioners under Section 43{7{b)) of the Act, whether
particular matters have come to my attention.
Basls of Independent Examlner's Report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity
Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and
a comparison of the Financlal Statements presented with those records. It also includes
consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the Financial Statements, and seeking
explanations from you as Trustees concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken do not
provlde all the evldence that would be requlred In an audit and consequently no audit opinion is
expressed on the view glven by the Flnancial Statements.
Independent Examiner's Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
11 which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any materlal respect the requirements
to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 41 of the Act; and
to prepare accounts which occord with the accountin8 records and to comply with the accountlng
requirements of the Act have not been met: or
2) to wh5ch In my opinion attentlon should be drawn In order to enable a proper understandlng of
the accounts to be reached.
