Independent Examiner’s Report

Report to the trustees/ members of Charity Name Recovery Assistance Dogs On accounts for the year ended 30TH JUNE 2025 Charity number 1125395

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to: * @xamine the accounts under section 145 of the 2014 Act, - to follow the procedure 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 charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations 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 no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a “true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

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 aspects the requirements: * to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act, and, of the* Charitiesto prepareAct accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements have not been met; or to2.be reached.to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts Wendy Cheung FCCA Date: 7/10/2025

1 Basis of preparation

1.1 Basis of accounting

These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. The accounts have been prepared in accordance with: the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), and with the Charities Act 2011. The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

1.2 Going concern

The Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. There are no key judgements that the charity has made which have a significant effect on the accounts. The Trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

1.3 Accounting policies

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met. It is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to specific headings, they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular purposes. The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

1.4 Critical accounting estimates and judgements In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other faciors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results mav differ from these estimates. The estimated and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period. or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future

4.5 Material errors There is no material error identified in the reporting period (3.47 FRS 102 SORP)
