Respective responsibilities of the trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees Gonsider that an audrt is not required for this year (under section 144{2) of the
Charities Act 2011 (the Act). and that an independent examination is needed_ It is our responsibility to

General Directions given by Ihe Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act- and to
state whether parlicular matters have come lo our attention.
Basi$ of independent examinerfs report
Our examination was carried out in accordan￿ with the General Directions given by the Charity
Commissioners. An examinalion includes a review of the accounting records kept by the ¢hariiy and a
comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any
unusual items or dis¢losures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees conceming
any such matters. The prO￿d￿reS undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required
in an audit, and consequently we do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.
Independent examlneVs ststemènt
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention=
which gives us reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the trustees have
not met the requirements to ensure that..
proper accounting records are kept in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 aGt,'
and
accounts are prepared which agree with Ihe accounting records and comply with the
accounting requirements of the acl,. or
