The Board of Trustees considersthat an audrt is not required for this year {urthr seCt￿n 144{2) of the
CharitiesAct 2011 Ithe Actll arKI that an indeFendent examinakn'on is needed.
It is my responsitmlty to..
Examine the accounts (urKler section 145 of theAcl)'.
To follow the woc&Jures laKI down in the General Th.re(#￿ts gNen by the Chanty Commission
{under section 145(5llb) of the Act), arvj
To state whether particular mattef5 have come to my attents'on.
Basis of independent examiner's s&itement
My examination was &qmed out in accorda￿ wth General Diredions given by the Charity
Commissioners. An examinati¢M indLths a ￿V￿• of the &countsng records kept by the church and a
comparison of attounts presented wlh those records. It also indudes consideration of any unusual
items or disdosures in the accounts, and seeknng explanalions from the Irustees COn￿ming any such
matters. The procedures undertaken do nol provKle all the eV￿en￿ that woukl ￿ rg]uired in an audit,
and consequerrtly I do not express an audrt opinion the accounts.
Indepondent examiner's statement
In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention..
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that. in any material resFed, the Diaconate has not
mel the requi￿rnents to ensure that..
proper accounting records are kept (in aCC(Kdan￿ V￿th section 41 of the Act), and
b. accounts are prepared which agree wrth ￿ acc(￿nting records and comply wrth the
accounting requirements of the A(a'. or

the accounts to be reached.
