INDEPENDENT EXAMtNERS' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES ON THE
UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF FESTIVAL DRAYTON CENTRE
This report is made to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with the ternis of my
engagement. My work has been undertaken so that I might Compile the financial statements that I
have been engaged to compile, report to the charity's trustees that I have done so, and state
thos¢ matters that I have agreed to state to them in this report and for no other purpose. To the
fullest extent pern]itted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the
charity and the charity's trustees, as a body, for my work or for this report.
Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Festival Drayton Centre
I report on the accounts of the company for the year ended 30th November 2024 which are set out on
pages I to 5.
R￿peCtive responsibilities of trust￿9 and eiaminer
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for th¢ purpose of company law) are responsible
for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that all audit is not required for this year
under section 144(2} of the Charities Act 2011 and that an independent examination is ne¢d¢d.
Having satisified myself that the charity is not subject to audit under Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and is
eligible for independent ¢xamination, it is my responsibility to:_
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act.
follow the proc￿llre5 laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners
under section 145(5)(b) of the 201 l Act. and
state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's statemeDt
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity
Conunission. An examtnation includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity 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
audAL and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 't￿e and fair view" and
the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connectlon with my examination, no material matter has come to my attention.
which gives me reasonabRe cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of tbc Companies Act 2006.
and to prepaT¢ accounts which accord with thc accounting records and to comply with
the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the
methods and principles of the Chariti¢s SORP (FKS102):
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.
