AUDITORS CERTIFICATE
INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS CERTIFICATE
REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF HOLT PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL ON
THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2020
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of these accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under s144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to a] examine the accounts under s145 of the Act
b] to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charities Commission in s145(5)(b) of the Act and
c] to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
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 disclosure in the accounts and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning 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.
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention (other than that disclosed below*) 1 which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements
a] to keep accounting records in accordance with s130 of the Act b] to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act
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.

TREASURERS REPORT
I cannot do anything else but say that 2020 has been difficult. After March we have never really had any firm base upon which to plan but still we have managed to have our organ refurbished a new money saving lighting system installed and the long planned path from Gresham car park to the West Door opened.
The end of year shows that we have managed to be in the black as far as the operating costs against income are concerned by £5047. However this would not have been possible without a fantastic Gift Day (£9686) or the grants received from the Government (£13850) and the Furlough Scheme. In addition the decision was taken not to pay the Parish Share in full by £12400. Had these items not been received or the reduction decided upon then the outcome for the year would have meant that ST Andrews would have run at a loss of about £33000 for the year.
2021 will again start in an uncertain manner but I have every faith in our fellowship,and town, to continue to support the church in their own fantastic way and for the PCC to make the correct decisions as and when necessary.
This year, in particular, has shown how the fellowship can pull together and once again I have to express my gratitude, not only my wife for her support, but to ALL who have stepped up to the mark and done such a lot of hard work behind the scenes so as to keep St Andrews going.
