INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF FRIENDS OF COBHAM FREE SCHOOL

I report to the Trustees on my examination of the financial records of Friends of Cobham Free School for the year ended 31 August 2023.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the Trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the records in accordance with the relevant legislation. Having satisfied myself that the financial statements of the charity are not required to be audited and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act). In carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of CIMA, which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

1.accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required; or

2.the financial statements do not accord with those records; or

3.the financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts

I have no concerns and 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 financial statements to be reached.
