## **Accountant's Report** 

## **Year Ended 31[st] March 2024** 

## **Accountant's Report to the Trustees on the unaudited financial** 

## **statements of Colne Open Door Centre Limited.** 

I report on the financial statements of Colne Open Door Centre Limited for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet and the related notes. 

These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and the accounting policies set out therein. 

## **Respective responsibilities of the trustee trustees and auditors** 

The charity's trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act), as amended by section 28 of the Charities Act 2006 and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts under section 43(3)(a) of the Act, as amended: to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 43 (7)(b) of the Act, as amended: and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner'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 accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below: 

## **Independent Examiner's statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- [1] which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements - to keep proper accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and 

   - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities have not been met; or 

- **[1]** to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. 

**Signed:**
