Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of “The Liam Fairhurst Foundation”
I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 5[th] April 2023
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
To follow the procedures laid down in general directions given by the commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act;
-
To state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of 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 next statement.
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention
