- Equitable access to assessments; 


- Access to the right 

- assistive technology.

## **Future prospects** 

The board of Trustees recognises the impact of our inability to recruit new trustees on the financial position of the organisation. Our ability to raise funds in the usual ways has been reduced. The trustees will monitor a projection of income for 12 months ahead and actively look for new sources of funding as well as trying to increase core paid for services. 

We plan on continuing to deliver Helpline and advice services, offer tutoring and Dyslexia & Dyscalculia assessments for both children & adults. We advocate for dyslexics of all ages. 

## **Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities** 

The trustees (who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the income and expenditure of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements the trustees are required to: 

 Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

 Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

 Make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

 State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

 Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The trustees and directors of Dyslexia North East have read and approved this annual report which is signed on their behalf by:

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES** 

For the year ended 30 September 2022 

I report on the financial statements of Dyslexia North East for the year ended 30 September 2022, which are set out on pages 8 to 17. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The charity's trustees (who are also directors of the company for the purposes of company law) 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 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 audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

- h examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, 

- h to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act), and 

- h to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with 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 the 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 material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: 

- h accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; or 

- h the accounts do not accord with such records; or 

- h the accounts do not comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

- h the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102). 

I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper  understanding of the accounts to be reached.
