The PCC is determined to offer the highest possible quality of worship which do great honour to God, which are consistent with the one true Holy and Apostolic church throughout the ages and which bless the congregation with a sense of the real presence of God.

Statement of Trustees' responsibilities For the Period Ended 31 December 2024
Charity law requires to prepare Financial Statements for each financial year which give a true view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of its financial activities for that period. In preparing those Financial Statements the Trustees are required to:
a) Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently.
b) Make judgments and estimates that are responsible and prudent.
c) Observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP.
d) Prepare the Financial Statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the Charity will continue operating.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and to enable them to ensure that the Financial Statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud or other irregularities

Reporting accountants report to the Trustees of The Parochial Church Council of The Ecclesiastical Parish of St. George Hanworth For the Period Ended 31 December 2024
I report on the accounts of the Charity for the period ended 31 December 2024 which are set out on pages 5 to 9.
## **RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND REPORTING ACCOUNTANT**
The Charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 and the Charity's governing document. It is my responsibility to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **BASIS OF REPORTING ACCOUNTANTS 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 records. 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 an audit, and consequently I do not express any audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
## **REPORTING ACCOUNTANT'S STATEMENT**
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements;
a) To keep accounting records in accordance with Section 130 of the Charities Act 2011; 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; or
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
