INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE BOURNE FOUNDATION
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31* August 2025 set (xrt on pages Four to Seven.
This report is made sdely to the chariws Trustees. as a body. in accordance with Section 145 of the
Charities Act 2011 and regulations made under Section 154 of that Act. My work has been
undertaken so that I mtght state to the charity's Trustees those malters l am required to state to them
in an Independent Examinerfs report and for no other purp)se. To the fullest extent permitted by
law, I do not accept or assume responsibility lo anyone other than the charity and charity's Truste8S
as a body, for my work or for this report.
Rospectlve responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charitys trustees
consider that an audit is not required for this year (under Sedit)n 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011
(th8 2011 Act)) and that an indeperKlent examination is required.
It is my responsibility to:
examine the accounts urKler Section 145 of the 2011 Act
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directw)ns given by the Charity Commission
(under Section 145(51(b) of the 2011 Act)., and
to state whether particular matters have comè to my attention.
Basls of Ihe Independént examlnerfs report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by Ihe 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 audtt, and consequently no opinion is given as lo vthether the accounts present
'true and fair view ' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the ststements below.
Independent examinerfs 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, Ihè requirements
to keep accounting records in accordance wilh Section 130 of the 2011 Act: and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to ¢omply with the
accounting requirements of the 2011 AL#
have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion. attention should be drawn in orderto enable a proper understanding
of the accounts to be reached.
