I report to the Managing Trustee on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Charity”) for the year stated. **Responsibilities and** As the charity's Managing Trustee, you are responsible for the preparation **basis of report** of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”). I report in respect of my examination of  the Charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

**Independent** ~~The charity~~ ’ ~~s gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to~~ **examiner's statement** ~~undertake the examination by being a Fellow member of the Association of Charity Independent Examiners.~~ 

I have completed my examination.  I confirm that no material matter has come to my attention in connection with the examination (other than that disclosed in Section B below) which gives me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

- the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or 

- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

- the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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. 

I have no concerns and 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.

## **Section B                           Disclosure** 

Only complete if the examiner needs to highlight material matters of concern (see CC32, Independent examination of charity accounts: directions and guidance for examiners). 

**Give here brief details of Direction 11 - Identify items from the analytical review of the accounts that any items that the need to be followed up for further explanation or evidence examiner wishes to disclose** . 

The charity’s property book was presented to the Examiner; however, it did not provide sufficient information to adequately support the Tangible assets figure shown in the charity’s balance sheet. Consequently, the scope of the independent examination was limited in this respect.
