My work has been undertaken so that I might stat¢ to thc charity's trustees those matters l am required to statc to them in this report aDd for no other PUEPOSe. To the fitllest cxtcnt pcrniitted by law.

I report in respeci of my exatnination of the charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all thc applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(iXb) of the Act. An independent exaJnination diKs not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently does not coN'cr all the mitters that aTh auditor consid¢rs in givin(F their opinion on the accounts. The planning and conduct of all audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an indepcndcnt examination provid¢. Consequently? I cxprcss no audit opinion on the accounts and my report is iimitcd to those specifi¢ att¢r5 set out iti the indtpclldcnt examin¢r's stat¢mcnt. Independent ex2miner'$ statement I have complctcd my cxamination. I confurn that llo D]atcrial marters have come to my attention in connection with the examillation gving me cause to believ¢ that in any malerial rcspcct: accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the A¢t' OT thc accounts do not accord with those records.
