We see most young people in schools acmss South and Mid warwicksh1￿ but also offer support {￿line and in the community.

As well as the financial benefits, this model has led to much stronoer relationships between the Pa5tor31 teams and our mentoring teams %yh￿h leads to MO￿ agile support for their student5. Lifespace is comrnitted to seeing young people as as life gers tough but. posr-pandemic. m05t of the youftg people we saw were already at OT close ro crisis point. whi￿ for many young people, back to normal has been just that for tnany others, the impact of the pandÈmic continuÈs to 4ffect their life at home, their Confiden￿ at sch¢)ol - LK)th academic and social. their emotional maturityi and they feel about thernselves and their lives.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT ON THE ACCOUNTS

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Lifespace Trust for the year ended 31st August 2022.

Responsibilties and basis of report

As the charity’s trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law), you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (“the 2006 Act”).

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the charity are not required to be audited for this year under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (“the 2011 Act”). In carrying out my examination, I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that:

• accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; or

• the accounts do not accord with such records; or

• the accounts do not comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the Companies

• Act 2006 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; or

• the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102).

I have no concerns and have come across no matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
