Christ Church Alsager

Accounts for 2021

Prepared for the

Annual Parochial Church Mee9ng Sunday 8th May 2022

Independent Examiner's Report To the PCC of Christ Church, Alsager I report on the accounts for the year ended 31st December 2021 which are set out on pages. Respective responslbilitles of the Trustees and Independent Examlner As trustees of the charity. the members of the PCC are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. They consider that an audit is not required for this year under sethon 144{21 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is Deeded. It is my responsibility to . examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; follow the procedures laid down in the Genernl Direcknons given by the Charity Commissioners section 14515llbl of the 2011 Art. and State whether particular matters have come to my attention. Basis of independent examinerfs 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 disc105ures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the management committee concerning any such matter5. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in a full audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts. Independent examiner's statement In connectlon with my examination, no matters have come to my attentlon l. which give me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements to keep accounllng record5 in accordance with s.130 of the 2011 Act; or to prepare accounts which accord with these accounting records have not been met; or 2. to which. in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
