Independent examiner's report to the trustees of St Matthew's PCC. Fulham I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year erthd 31 December 2024. which are set out on pages 2 to 8. Respective responsibilities of trnstees and examiner The PCC'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{2) of the Chartiies Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examinabon is needed. It is my responsibility to= examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Ac( 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 report My examination was carried out in accordan with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a revtew of Ihe accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented vitth those records. It also indudes consideration of any unusual items or disdosures in the accounts. and seeking explanations from you as trustees conceming any such Matters. The procedures urvjertaken do not provide all the evTrdence that would required in an audit and consequenty no opinion is given as to whether the a¢counts present a Irue and fair vith•l and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. Independent eraminer's statejnent In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: (1) which gives me reasonable cause to lIeVe that in any rnaterial respect the requirements.. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 ofthe 2011 Ac( and to prepare accounts whith accord with the accounting records and comply with Ihe accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met (2) to which. in my opinion. attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
