PAGE 5
I report on the accounts for the year eryled 31* Decemter 2023 which are Sel out on pages 6 1015.
Respectlve responsibllilles of the Trustees and lndepeTrd￿t Exarniner
As trustees of the charity, the members of Ihe PCC are resrK)nsible for the preparation of the
accounts. They consider that an audit is not reqbired for this year under section 144121 ol the Charities
Act 2011 {the 2011 Act) and that an inde￿[K￿ent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to-
Examine the awount5 under section 145 of Ihe 2011 Act.,
Follow the procedures laKI dovffl in the General DirectK•ns gwen by the Char(ly Commissioners section
145{5}Ibl of the 2011 Act- and
Stale whether particular matter5 have come lo my attention.
Basis Of Indepwd8nt Examinerfs Staternent
My examination was carried out in accordance with the Generd Directions given by the Charity
CommÉssion.
An examination includes a review of the accourning records kepl by the charity and a comparisan of
the accounts pres&nted wrih those records. li also indiides consideration ol any unusual items or
disclosLJres in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the management committee concerning
any such mallers. Tre procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required
in a full audit, and consequently I do not express an aL)dit opinion on the accounts.
Independeni Examiner's Statement
In ¢onnection"wiih my exarn1nat￿n, no mafler has come to my attention:
111 which gives me reasonable cause to believe thal in any Materi￿ respect the requirements
lo keep accounting records in accordance with seclion 130 of the 2011 Act. oi
lo prepare accourrts which accord wfth these attounting records have not been mol; or
{21 to which, in my opinion, attention shouhj be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding ol
the accoLJnts to be reached.
