Chairman's statement 

The boat club at Great Marlow has enjoyed significant success and growth this academic year. 

They have managed to win around a dozen National Medals including at least four Golds in the various events throughout the year. On the equipment front they have added another top class quad sculling boat which was paid for by Swans and largely supported by the fundraising events organised by Swans. 

The school boat club continues to inspire young students to excel and we have noted the significant out performance of rowers in public examinations over the years. The future looks promising and numbers involved in rowing look to grow. 

Another great year for The boat club and our charity which supports them. 

Chairman

**Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of Marlow Swans on the Accounts for the 12 months ended 31[st] August 2021** 

## **Marlow Swans** 

## **(Registered Charity Number 1147662)** 

I report on the accounts of the Organisation for the year ended 31[st] August 2021, which are set out on page1 

## **Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner** 

The Charity’s 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. I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW) 

It is my responsibility to : 

- Examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act 

- To follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission ( under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act 2011); and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner’s statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An 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 in limited to those matters set ou in the statement. below. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention: 

- which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect; 

- the  accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act 2011; or 

- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

- the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and contents of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2011 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn  in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
