INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF
PARENT CLUB
Independent Exarninerf5 Report to the Trustees of Parent Club
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Parent Club I'the charitV} for
st
the year ended 31 December 2022 which comprise the summary of receipts and payments
and the statement of assets and liabilities.
This report is rnade solely to the chariW5 trustee5, 35 a body, in accordance with section 145
of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the char￿5
trustees those matters l am required to state tc them in this report and for no other purpose.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone
other than the charlty and the charltvs trustees as a body, for my work, for thls report, or for
the opinions I have formed.
Responslbllltles and ba515 of report
As the tnjstees of the charity you are responslble for the preparatSon of the accounts In
accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 {'the Act'l.
I report in rÈspert of my examination of the chariws accounts carried out under sertlon 145
of the Art and In carryln8 OLrt my examlnatlon I have followed all the appllcable Dlrections
8Sven by the Charlty Commlsslon under sectlon 1451Sllb) of the Art.
An Independent examination does not involve gatherin8 all the evldence that would be
requlred In an audlt and consequentlydoes not coverallthe mattersthat an audltor conslders
In 8lvln8theiropinion on the accounts. The plannin8and conduct of an audit goes beyond the
limited assurance that an independent examination can provide. Consequently l expre55 no
audit oplnlon on the accounts and my report Is limited to those spectfic matters set out In the
independent examiner's statement.
Independent examlnerfs $tatement
I have completed my examination. I confim) that no material matters have come to my
tention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material
respect:
accountlng records were not kept in respect of the charity as requlred by sectlon 130
of the Act; or
> the accounts do not accord with those records.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF
PARENT CLUB
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the
examination to which attention should be drawn In thls report In order to enable a proper
understandln8 of the accounts to be reached.
