Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities
Charity Law requires the Board to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the Board is required to :-
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
-
state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed , subject to any material
-
departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
The trustees are also responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with regulations made under the Charities Act. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

AL-SUNNAH COMMUNITY EDUCATION AND RECREATION CENTRE Independent Examiner's Report to the members of the charity
Report of the Independent Examiner to the trustees
on the accounts of the Charity for the year ende31 May 2024
I report on the financial statements of the Charity on pages 6 which have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 1993 and with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (FRSSE), effective January 2007 , adapted to meet the needs of unincorporated organisations, as modified by the Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting issued by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales, effective April 2008 as modified in June 2008. (The SORP), under the historical cost convention and the accounting policies set out.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The Charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements. The trustees are satisfied that the audit requirement of Section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act) does not apply, and that there is no requirement in the governing document or constitution of the Charity for the conducting of an audit. As a consequence, the trustees have elected that the financial statements be subject to independent examination.
Having satisfied mysef that the charity is not subject to audit, and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:-
a) examine the accounts under section 43 of the Act;
b) to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 43(7)(b) of the Act; and;
c) to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
4
Basis of opinion and scope of work undertaken
I conducted my examination in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales in relation to the conducting of an independent examination, referred to above. An independent examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and of the accounting systems employed by the Charity and a comparison of the financial 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 purpose of the examination is to establish as far as possible that there have been no breaches of the Charities legislation and that the financial statements comply with the Statement of Recommended Practice issued by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales ( effective April 2008 ), on a test basis, of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit , and information supplied by the trustees in the course of the examination is not subjected to audit tests or enquiries, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements, and in particular, I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view of the affairs of the charity, and my report is limited to the matters set out in the statement below.
I planned and performed our examination so as to satisfy myself that the objectives of the independent examination are achieved and before finalising the report I obtain written assurances from the trustees of all material matters.
