## **Objectives** 

The objective of the organisation is to promote the relief to disabled persons, and those with limited mobility, by improving their mobility and access and by provision of wheelchairs and other equipment. 

## **Results** 

The charity recorded the decrease in revenue by £19,300 to £270,548 for the year. We are continuing to source investment opportunity going forward. 

## **Chairs Report** 

The success of Redhill Shopmobility is due to the hard work of a dedicated group of Trustees, a small team of staff and local volunteers. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The reserves policy is to build up a general reserve equal to 12 months expenditure thus securing the longterm operations of the scheme should the charity experience and short-term financial difficulties. 

Redhill Shopmobility continues to grow and develop. One of the aims for the coming year is to secure a source of long-term funding and support from local businesses, so the charity can continue to support its growth without financial constraints. 

Thank you again to the many people who make the scheme possible.

As the trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. You consider the audit responsibilities of section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 does not apply. 

## **Independent Examiners 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 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 examiners’ 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: 

   - a. To keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the 1993 Act; and, 

   - b. To prepare accounts with accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 1993 Act. 

Have not been met; or, 

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