Independent Examiner's Report
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025 which are set out on pages 9 to 12.
Respective responsibilties of trustee and examiner
As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts; you consider that the audit requirements of section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act) do not apply. It is my responsibility to state that, on the basis of procedures specified in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 43(7) of the act whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of the independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those reports. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in any audit, and consequently we do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent Examiner's Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention which:
-
gives me resonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements a) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act and b) to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the Act have not been met.
-
in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention which:
