Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Platform (Hull)
I report to the cbarity trustees on my examination of ihe accounts of Platfonn (Hull) (the Trust) for the year ended

Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the
requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act,).
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying
out my examination I have followed all applicable DirectiOT)s given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b)
of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirn]
that l am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered AccounlaThts in
England and Wales, which is one of the Iisied bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirni that no material matters have come to my attenlion in connection with the
examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

the accounts do not accord with those records; or
the accounts do not comply with Ihe iipplicable requirements concerning the forni and content of accounts set
out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accoullts give
a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
