The charity is consolidating the gains of previous development and has successfully ministered to the needs of various social groups within and outside the church. The charity provides forum for manpower development for its members to be equipped, educationally, socially and spiritually. It offers various counselling sessions to the needy, unemployed, and educational and makes referral whenever the need arises. 

The charity provides counselling services to members of the community. We have also embarked on various training programmes to equip more church volunteers with the relevant counselling skills that will help them serve the community better.

## **Accountants / Independent Examiner's Report For The Year Ended 31st December 2024** 

I have examined the financial statements on pages 2 to 12 which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out on page 4. 

## **Respective responsibilities of the trustees and independent examiner** 

The charity trustees are reponsible for the preparation of the financial statements. 

The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144 (2) of the charities (Act 2011)  (the 2011 act). 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts (under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

- follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; 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 Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the organisation and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and, seeking explanation 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, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. 

It is my responsibility to form an independent opinion, based on my examination, on those financial statements and to report on my opinion. 

## **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 accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and 

- to prepare acounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirement of the 2011 Act have not been met. 

- 2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
