MILEN CARE
ACCOUNTANTS REPORT
I report on the accounts of the organisation for the year ended 31 March 2023 set out on pages 5-6 which have been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies on page 7.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees of the organisation are responsible for the preparation of accounts; they consider that the audit requirement under section 144 of the 2011 Act, does not apply. It is my responsibility to:
- Examine the accounts under Section 145 of 2011 Act.
• Follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners made under Section 145 (5) (b) of the 2011 Act.
- 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 Commissioners. An examination includes review of the accounting records kept by the organisation 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 I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accountants.
Independent examiner’s statement
Based on my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect, accounting records have not been kept in accordance with Section 130 of 2011 Act, or that the accounts presented do not accord with those records, or comply with the accounting requirement of the 2011 Act. No matter has come to my attention in connection with my examination to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
