Good Afternoon Becky, 

I have reviewed the accounts cash book and have had to make a few minor adjustments. 

As I put together the accounts for you, they did not balance. As I looked further, I noticed that your cash book had problems with the yearly totals at the bottom of the receipts pages for Qtr 2 and 4. If you look at the formula on the original, you will notice that the formula did not add all the figures to the bottom of the page. Which took a few minutes to spot. 

Once this had been rectified, the accounts balanced. 

I have enclosed the rectified cashbook for your information and also the accounts. 

The TAR is a little different, as this information is mainly coming from the trustees, and I feel this will need to be filled in as such. 

You can download a copy of the 2026 SORP guidance as a PDF to assist you with this 

charities-sorp-2026-1 

I understand that I did say I wouldn't progress until instructed, but I have completed it for you, as I was under the impression you would like to get this out of the way. I have attached an invoice for the work done. 

I trust this meets with your requirements 

Thank you in advance, and if you have any questions, please just ask. 

Kind Regards 

Rob Shaw
