## **Objectives and activities** 

|**Summary of the objectives of**<br>**the Charity set out in its**<br>**governing document**|The relief of those in need, by reason of youth, age, ill health,<br>disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage:<br>•<br>The relief of sickness and the preservation of health<br>among people<br>•<br>To assist in the treatment and care of persons suffering<br>from mental or physical illness of any description or in<br>need of rehabilitation as a result of such illness, by the<br>provision of facilities for work and recreation.<br>•<br>The prevention or relief of poverty by providing grants,<br>items and services to individuals in need and/ or charities<br>or other organisations working to prevent or relieve<br>poverty.|
|---|---|
|**Summary of the main**<br>**activities undertaken for the**<br>**public benefit in relation to**<br>**these objectives**|In planning our activities for the year, we kept in mind the Charity<br>Commission’s guidance on public benefit at our trustee meetings.<br>The focus of our activities remains:<br>Providing grants or items to individuals who are suffering<br>from either mental or physical illness. These donations<br>are intended to help in the treatment, support or<br>rehabilitation from the illness. The support includes both<br>the individuals and their families. Donations of a similar<br>nature will also be offered to other charities who adopt<br>supporting objects, thus providing help in larger projects.<br>These types of activities can improve the provision to, for<br>example, a children’s hospice which helps the individual,<br>their families and the NHS; relieving pressure on the<br>health service.<br>Funding of projects which work towards the prevention<br>and relief of poverty. This will include the support of<br>individuals who will work on such projects and/or<br>providing materials required to complete the task.<br>Improving the provision of education in an impoverished<br>area can be a public benefit by enhancing the ability of<br>the local community to develop a sustainable community;<br>thus reducing poverty in the future.|
|**Additional information**|In addition to the voluntary time provided by the trustees the<br>Charity also has additional volunteers who help with the larger<br>fundraising activities. Without this valuable contribution, we<br>would not be able to raise as much money to use in our main<br>activities.|

## **Further financial review details** 

## **Financial review** 

**Brief statement of** £30,000 is required to cover the costs of the next big fundraising **the charity’s policy** activity, this amount is maintained in the reserve account. This is to **on reserves** ensure that the upfront expense can be covered before ticket sales occur. **Details of any** Not applicable **funds materially in deficit** Our main source of funding this year has been from a music festival and outdoor golfing event. We rely on the local community for their continuing support and on other local charities to engage in partnerships for larger projects. The majority of the income typically goes to support grants and items required by other charities or individuals and to cover the cost of the fundraising activities. We have no overheads or staff costs. 

## **Other optional information** 

## **Future plans (this is for the next accounting period):** 

- 1) Fundraising evening November 2023 at Detling showground, for which the contractual process of securing suppliers began in November 2022. 

- 2) Golf day in July of 2023. 

• Additional donations to help new and existing individuals, as well as the FOSN pledge to support those charities who have received assets from the Charity to help maintain them.

## **Independent examiner’s report on the accounts** 

**Report to the trustees / members of** FOSN **On the accounts for the year ended** 31[st] July 2023 **Set out on pages** 8 and 9 

**Respective** The Charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under **responsibilities** section 43 (2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act) and that an independent **of trustees and** examination is needed. **examiner** It is my responsibility to 

It is my responsibility to 

- Examine the accounts (under section 43 of the Act) 

- To follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 43 (7) (b) of the Act), and 

- To state whether particular matters have come to my attention 

## **Basis of independent examiners report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with **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 is limited to those matters set out within the statement below. 

**Independent examiners statement** 

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

1. Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements: 

   - To keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act; and 

   - To prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 1993 Act; 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.
