ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities

Key achievements during the year have been:

• The Club completed in the Thames Valley Cricket League in 2022. The 1st XI were relegated from division 3. The 2nd XI were promoted from division 7. It means both teams are in the same division as when joining the league. This is moderate progress due to an increase in the number of teams in the TVCL.

We completed exceptional work on the cricket square (costing £840).
We completed a lighting & electrical refurbishment project (costing £732).
Junior membership has continued to increase, to over 70 children.

REPORTING PUBLIC BENEFIT

The Objectives and Activities section provides a brief summary of the activities which have all been undertaken for the public benefit.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF WHITE WALTHAM CRICKET CLUB

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner:

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

It is my responsibility to:

· examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act;

· follow the procedures laid down in the general Direction given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act; and

· 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 Direction 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 seeking explanations from you as 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:

(1) 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

(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
