I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended 31/08/2024. 

**Responsibilities and** As the charity trustees of the Trust, you are responsible for the preparation **basis of report** of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).
