The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 20111"the Charities Act") and that an independent examination is needed. The charity's gross income did not exceed £250,000 due to the COVID-19 and for consistency l am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of Association of Chartered Certified Accountants. It is my responsibility to: examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission lunder section 145151{bl of the Charities Act, and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention Basis of Independent My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity examinerfs statement Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a com parison of the accounts presented with those records. It a Iso includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be req uired in an a ud it, and conseq uently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fairf view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention (other examiner's statement than that disclosed below .) which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect; the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act,. or the accounts did not accord with the accounting records,, or the accounts did not comply with the applicable reqijirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair, view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. * Please delete the words in the brackets if they do not opply.
