J Rowlands Page 2 **North West Vehicle Restoration Trust (Registered number: 07616318)** ## **Independent Examiner’s Report for the Year Ended 30 April 2024** We report on the accounts of North West Vehicle Restoration Trust for the year ended 30 April 2024 which are set out on pages 4 to 7. ## **Respective responsibilities of the Committee and Examiner** As the Charity’s Committee you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts; you consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is our responsibility to examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and state whether particular matters have come to our attention. ## **Basis of the Independent Examiner’s Report** Our examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. That examination 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 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 our examination, no matter has come to our attention: 1. which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or 2. to which, in our opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
