**Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of The Parish of Beccles with Worlingham, North Cove and Barnby** 

**Page 5** 

I report on the accounts for the year ended 31[st] December 2025 set out on pages six to twenty two. 

## **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 required. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Act 

- to 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 the 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 statements below. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

In connection with my examination, the following has come to my attention 

The accounting statements prepared on pages 6 to 22 represent the accounting affairs of the Parish of Beccles with Worlingham, North Cove and Barnby for the year ending 31[st] December 2025. The accounting records were compiled using transactional spreadsheets to trial balances and summary accounts level by the 3 Treasurers and underpin the PCC’s work and accounting statements for 2025.

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 particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

## **Consecrated property and movable church furnishings** 

Consecrated and beneficial property of any kind is not included in the accounts in accordance with s10(2)c of the Charities Act 2011. 

Movable church furnishings held by the vicar and churchwardens on special trust for the PCC, and which require a faculty for disposal, are accounted as inalienable property unless consecrated. They are listed on the church's inventory which can be inspected (at any reasonable time). For inalienable property acquired prior to 2001 there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such assets are not valued in the accounts. Items acquired since 1 January 2001 will be capitalised and depreciated in the accounts over their anticipated useful economic life. 

All expenditure incurred in the year on consecrated or beneficial buildings, individual items under £1,000 or on the repair of movable church furnishings acquired before 1 January 2000 are written off.

**Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of The Parish of Beccles with Worlingham, North Cove and Barnby** 

**Page 5** 

I report on the accounts for the year ended 31[st] December 2025 set out on pages six to twenty two. 

## **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 required. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Act 

- to 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 the 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 statements below. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

In connection with my examination, the following has come to my attention 

The accounting statements prepared on pages 6 to 22 represent the accounting affairs of the Parish of Beccles with Worlingham, North Cove and Barnby for the year ending 31[st] December 2025. The accounting records were compiled using transactional spreadsheets to trial balances and summary accounts level by the 3 Treasurers and underpin the PCC’s work and accounting statements for 2025.
