	It is my responsibility to:
	* examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,

	Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and

Basis of independent	My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given 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 the 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 statement below.
Independent examiner's statement	In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention 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 Charities Act; and
	* to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the
	accounting requirements of the Charities Act
	have not been met; or
	to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper
	understanding of the accounts to be reached.
