Superyacht Charities
Independent Examiner's Report
I report on the accounts of the above CIO for the Period from 1 St August 2019 to 31st July
2020, the financial statements of which are set out on the following pages.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with
the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ("the ACY,). The charity's trustees consider that an
audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Act and that an independent
examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Act;
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity
Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act; and
to 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 Directions given by the
Charity Commissioners. 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 the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide
all the eviden￿ that would be required in an audit, and the report is limited to those matters
set out in the statement below.
Independent examinerfs statement
In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which
gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Act. or
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the
examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of
the accounts to be reached.

Events Limited TIA F R Events (in liquidation), did not distribute revenue to the Charity
representing 50 % of the full amount expected from it. The Charity considers there is no

Directors of the Company or redistributed from any creditors which attended the event and
were later reimbursed.
