RBOIIOUC'H I'.I'I'I' LULIIC'I MAYOR OF PETERBOROUGH'S CHARITY FUND (Registered: 1165640) YEAR ENDED 31 MAY 2025 INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE MAYOR OF PETERBOROUGH'S CHARITY FUND Respective responsibilities of Iruslees and èxaminer The charity's trustees are responsible lor the preparation ol the accounts. The charity's Irustees consider thal an audit is not required lor this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independenl examination is needed. It is my responsibility to.. Examine the accounts under section 145 of lh& Charities Act 2011, To follow Ihe procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission in section 14515){bl of the Act, and To state whelher particular matters have come to my altention. Basis ol independent examiners slalement My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison ol the accounts presenled with those records.11 also includes consideralian of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all Ihe 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 of the accounts lor 2024-25, no matter has come lo my attention= 1 . Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in. any material respect, the requirements.. lo keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 01 Ihe 2011 Act,. and lo prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been 2. To which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. During the review it was noted that there has been limited progress in addressing previous recommendations lo strengthen governance and overall controls within MPCF. In particular, M PCF'S Constitution should be reviewed and updated, financial procedures should be clearly documented, and conflicts ol interest and trustee expenses should be properly managed, with briefings provided lo each new committee. A separate report will be issued to the truslees of MPCF to explain these issues in more detail.
