Penny Jo Gordon Clare Louise Eade Jennifer Jacobs

Statement of directors' responsibilities

The directors are responsible for preparing the report and accounts in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the directors to prepare accounts for each financial year. Under that law, the directors have elected to prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these accounts, the directors are required to.

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Small company provisions

This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions relating to small companies within Part 15 Of the Companies Act 2006.

Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of The Ark of Lord

We have performed certain procedures in respect of the charity’s unaudited financial statements for the year ended 31 July 2024.

Respective responsibilities of Trustees and independent Examiner

The charity trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees 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.

As the Independent Examiner, it is my responsibility to:

Examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charity Act
To follow the procedures laid down in general guidance issued by the charity commission, and
State whether any specific matters have come to my attention.

Basis of the independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general guidance given by the Charity Commission. An examiner includes the review of the company accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unused items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking an explanation from you as the Trustees of the charity concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.

Independent Examiner’s Statement

In the course of my examination, no material matter has come to my attention:

Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect the Trustees have not met the requirement to ensure that:
Proper accounting records are not kept; and
Accounts are prepared which agree with the accounting records.

In my opinion, accounts accurately reflect Charity’s financial performance and position for the year ended 31 July 2024.

Yours truly,
