Report of the trustees (incorporating the directors report) for the year ended 31 March 2021
The Museum has been closed over the financial period due to Covid restrictions, the staff have been placed on furlough although their salaries were not reduced.
The fact that we were awarded government grants and ABC continued their financial support has allowed the Museum to remain in a favourable financial position.
||
We also thank ABC for continuing with their plans to modify the front entrance to comply with DDA regulations as well a building a new toilet block. The work commenced in late 2020 and was almost completed by the end of the financial year.
We look forward to resuming normal activities in the 2021/2022 period.

Independent examiners report to the trustees on the unaudited financial statements
| report on the accounts of The Workington Heritage Group Limited for the year ended 31st March 2021 set out on pages 8 to 18.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and Independent examiner
The charity's trustees (who are also the directors of the company for purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this | year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is : needed. Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under Part 16 of the Companies Act : 2006 and is eligible for an independent examination, it is my responsibility to examine the accounts under | section 145 of the Charities Act, to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the | Charities Commission under section 145(5) of the Charities Act, and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiners statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charities 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 examiners statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
(i) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect requirements:
-
to keep proper accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities
have not been met; or
{ii) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
