Independant Examiners' Report to the Trustees of Dronfield with Holmesfield P.C.C. Central Fund

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Chesterfield Food Bank for the year ended 31 December 2023.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of Dronfield with Holmesfield P.C.C. Central Fund you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).

I report in respect of my examination of the Dronfield with Holmesfield P.C.C. Central Fund's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner’s statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

• 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of Dronfield with Holmesfield P.C.C. Central Fund as required by section 130 of the Act; or

• 2 the accounts do not accord with those records; or

• 3 the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements 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 no concerns and 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.

ST PHILIPS CHURCH INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31[ST] DECEMBER 2023

I report on the accounts of St Philips Church for the year ended 31 December 2023, which are set out on pages 1 to 6.

Respective responsibilities of members and examiner

The members of the Church Council are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The members of the Church Council 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 Commission 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 Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Church Council 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 members 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 connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:

• (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:

• to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and

• to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities 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.
