## Redeemed Christian Church of God , House of Priase Kidbrooke 

For The Year Ended 31st December, 2023 

## Independent Examiner's Report 

## To the Trustees of 

## Redeemed Christian Church of God , House of Priase Kidbrooke 

I report on the accounts for the year ended 31st December, 2023 set out on pages four to Seven. 

## 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(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act)) and that an independent examination is required. The charity's gross income does not exceed £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of ACCA. 

## It is my responsibility to: 

examine the accounts under  Section  145  of the 2011  Act to follow  the  procedures laid down  in 

the  General  Directions given  by the Charity Commission (under  Section l45(5)(b) of the 2011  Act); and to state whether particular matters  have come  to my attention. 

## Basis of the independent examiner's  report 

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 is limited to those matters set out in the statements below. 

## Independent  examiner's statement 

In connection with 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  130 of the 2011 Act;  and to  prepare 

accounts  which   accord   with   the  accounting records  and  to  comply   with   the  accounting requirements of the 2011 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.
