## **Independent Examiner’s report on the accounts** 

## **Report to the trustees of Knoll Community Association CIO Registered Charity number 1155501** 

## **Accounts for the period 1[st] April 2022 to 31[st] March 2023** 

The accounts have been prepared on the Receipts and Payments basis. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and independent examiner** 

As the charity’s trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts.  You consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to follow the procedures specified in the General Directions of the Charity Commissioners under section 145 (5) of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner’s Report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners.  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 the trustees concerning any such matters.  The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts. 

## **Independent Examiner’s Report** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention (except that detailed over): 

- (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements 

   - (a) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act: and 

   - (b) to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 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.
