In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention gives me cause
to believe that in, any material respect:
accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; or
the accounts do not accord with such records; or
• the accounts do not comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the
Companies Act 2006 otherthan any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fairf view which
is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS1021.
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
accounts to be reached.
