## **Womb Transplant UK**
## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT**
## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2023**
## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Womb Transplant UK ('the charity')**
I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 30 September 2023.
## **Responsibilities and Basis of Report**
As the Trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
## **Independent Examiner's Statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no 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 the charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
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.
