3 srATEMENT OF TRUSTEES RFSPoNSIBIL￿1F The thIAeeS are Yes[￿￿ible for pYeparin8 the financial sthlements in f&C(rd￿¢¢ with a￿lI¢•bk law and United Kingdom Gcnernlly Acttmed Accounting Prxtiex (UK GAAP). Charity law rquires the Irusiees to prepare financial staiements for each financial year. Under that law the trustees have elected io prepare the financial 51atemcnts in accordanc¢ with the United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice {Uniied Kingdom Accounting Stsndards and applicable law). The financial stsiements are requird by law to give a and fair view ofthe state of alTairs of the charitable company and of the surplus ordeficit ofthe charitabl¢ cThnpany fv that puiod. In preparing those financial slatemen the truaees are required to l. Select suitsble ￿)UntIng policies and then apply them consistently: 2. Make judgments and C￿lMaleS that are reasonable and prudent. 3. Prepare the fmancial sLqtements on the going concern basis unless it is inappwte to presume that the charitable company will ￿ntinUe in business. The trustres are r¢s￿nSIble for kttping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable a¢curxy at any time the financial y)sition of the chariLqble company and to enable them kn ensure that the fmancial statements c(Mnply with the Charitics Act 2011. They at also restK)nsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for tsking reasonable • for the prevention and detsction of fraud and other irregularitie SrATEmE￿ AS TO DISCU>SURE OF INFORMATION TO INDEPENDENT So far as the t￿￿¢¢$ are aware. there is no relevant inforn)ation of which the charity's independent examiners are unawar4 and each trustee has tsken all the steps that they ought lo have taken as a trustee in order to make them awa￿ of any examination inforniation and lo estsblish that the charity's indq)athnt examiners are awar¢ of that ioforn)aiion. INDEPENDE￿ EXAMINERS The inder￿de￿ e￿lMinerS Kaxlon Advisory Ltd., will be proposed for r¢-appointment at the fi)rthc{￿ing Annual GaKral Meeting. (h Behalf of th¢ Trustees Board: Rev. Biimark kniamah 2* Aug￿ 2024. ## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CROSSOVER CHAPEL INTERNATIONAL** I report on the accounts of the Church for the year ended 31[st] March 2024 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and related notes set out on pages 9 to12. This report is made solely to the Trustees Board in accordance with Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Church and the Church’s trustees for my examination work. ## **Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner** The Church’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. They consider that an audit is not required for this year (under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act)) and that an independent examination is needed. 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 Commissioner (under Section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act); and - To state whether particular matters have come to my attention. ## **Basis of Independent Examiner's report** My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioner. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Church 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 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. ����������������������������������������������������������������������������������� Independent Examiner's Statement In conncction with my cxamination. no matter has come to my attention: l. Which gives mc rcasonable cawse 10 believe thai in any material respcci the requircmcn O- lo keep accounting records in accordance with Section 130 of the Charities Acl :and to prL'pare accounis which accord wilh ihe accouniing records and ¢omply with the accounting rcquir¢mciils ol. Ihc Charitics Act hav¢ not bcen m¢i: or 2. to which, in my opinion, atl¢ntion should be drawn in order io enable a proper understanding of ihe accounts to be reached. EI¥I%IAN'UEL ASHILEY. i¥ISc.
