INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CREATIVE CULTURE TRUST CIO
I report on the accounts of Creative Culture Trust CIO for the year ended 5th April 2023, which are set out on pages 3 to 8.
This report is made solely to the trustees, as a body, in accordance with the regulations made under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity's trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner's 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 charity and the charity's trustees, as a body, for my work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees (who are also directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible or independent examination it is my responsibility to:
Examine the accounts and to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. 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 seeks explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would by 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 set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
1.) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect, the requirements;
- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 and 387 of the Companies Act 2006; and - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of section 394 and 395 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities;
have not been met; or
2.) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understand of the accounts to be reached.
