the Ch3ritie5 Act 20111'the Act'l.
I report in respect of rny examination of the Trust's 8¢counts ￿rrIed out under Settion 145 of the Att and in carrying out mv
examination I have followed 311 applicable Diroctions gnien bythe Ch8rty Commlssion under Settion 14515llbl of the Act.
Independent examineV5 Statement. matters of wncem Fdentified
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that l am
qualified to undert8ke the examination because l am 3 member of the Institute of Ch3rtered Accountants in England and Wales,
which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my exarninatlDn.
Eluring the review of the financial statements there has been sorne confusion of the payment of the PAYE. which due to the death
of one of the trustees has not been paid for earlier years. The balance outstènding èt 31tt March 2024 w85 £64,604. The HMRC
have tried to chase with regard5 to this. but had been ringing the deceased trustee. This ha5 now been discussed with the
remaining trustees, who are now in discussion with the HMRC to resolve the rnatter. These financial st3t@rnents do not refiert 8ny
3dlustment should the charity not be supported with wying the PAYE arrezrs or any interest that might be levled for th
outstanding debt.
I confirm that no other matters have Come ts my attention that give me cause to believe that in any rnaterial respert-
accounting records were not kept in ￿speCt of theTru5t as required by Settion 130 of the Att,. or
the accounts do not accord with those records,. or
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements conceming the form and content of accounts set out in the
Charlties (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view
which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I confirm that there are no other matter5 to which your attention should be drawn to enable 8 proper understsndlng of the
ccounts to be reached.
