|On accounts|for the|year|ended|||31"March 2021|||
|Setout on pages||||||1-2|||
|Respective responsibilities|||oftrustees|||The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required|for this year||
|and examiner||||||(under section 43(2)ofthe Charities Act 1993(the Act)) and that an|||
|||||||independent<br>examination<br>is needed. It is my responsibility|to:||
|||||||~ examine the accounts (under section 43ofthe Act),|||
|||||||~tofollow the procedures<br>laid down<br>in the General Directions given||by|
|||||||the Charity Commission<br>(under section 43(7)(b)ofthe Act), and|||
|||||||~tostate whether<br>particular<br>matters<br>have come to my attention.|||
|Basis ofindependent||examiner's||report||My examination<br>was carried out in accordance with the General|||
|||||||Directions given by the Charity Commission.<br>An examination|includes a||
|||||||review ofthe accounting<br>records kept by the charity and a|comparison|of|
|||||||the accounts presented<br>with those records. Italso includes|consideration||
|||||||ofany unusual<br>items or disclosures<br>in the accounts, and seeking|||
|||||||explanations<br>from you asTrustees concerning<br>any such matters. The|||
|||||||procedures<br>undertaken<br>do not provide<br>all the evidence that would be|||
|||||||required<br>in an audit, and consequently<br>no opinion<br>is given|asto whether||
|||||||the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to|||
|||||||those matters set out in the statement<br>below.|||
|Independent|examiner's||statement|||In the course ofmy examination,<br>no matter has come to my attention:|||
|||||||1.Which gives me reasonable<br>cause to believe that in, any|material||
|||||||respect, the requirements:|||
|||||||~to keep accounting<br>records in accordance with section|41ofthe Act;||
|||||||and|||
|||||||~to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting|records and||
|||||||comply with the accounting<br>requirements<br>ofthe 1993Act|||
|||||||have not been met; or|||
|||||||2.Towhich,<br>in my opinion, attention<br>should be drawn<br>in order to enable|||
|||||||a proper understanding<br>ofthe accounts to be reached.|||

||Only complete<br>ifthe examiner<br>needs to highlight<br>particular<br>problems||
|---|---|---|
|Give here brief details ofIssues that|A significant effect ofthe Covid 19Pandemic<br>has been that it has not||
|the examiner wishes to disclose.|been possible to examine<br>physical documents<br>and carry out discussions||
||with the Treasurer<br>in the usual manner. The Treasurer<br>has provided<br>all||
||necessary documentation<br>in electronic form, supported<br>by telephone||
||discussion.<br>Whilst not being able to do the work tothe usual level of||
||detail,<br>I believe that<br>I have been provided<br>with sufficient<br>information<br>to||
||be able to come to a reasonable<br>view ofthe accounts.||
||As in previous years, a finalcopy ofthe Trustees'<br>Annual<br>Report was not||
||available at this time. Similarly, as the Approved<br>Accounts were also not||
||available,<br>only a Final Draft ofAccounts could be reviewed.||
||The reasonableness<br>ofany significant estimates orjudgments<br>that have||
||been made in preparing<br>the Accounts has been assessed and accepted.||
||At the beginning<br>&end ofthe year Cash In Hand<br>is counted<br>&recorded|by|
||the Treasurer. Ofnecessity,<br>I was unable toverify these figures. However,||
||it isconsistent with the Accounts and, following<br>previous||
||recommendations,<br>the Closing value is significantly<br>reduced from last||
||year and considered to be not material.||
||Aside from Donations,<br>receipts this year have been broadly<br>in line with||
||previous years. The reduction ofE20,419istaken to reflect the||
||completion<br>and implementation<br>ofthe previous contract with D&G, since||
||substantial<br>expenditure<br>on environmental<br>improvements<br>costing E20727||
||have been undertaken.<br>Administrative<br>costs have risen in consequence,||
||but at E1,164(E727)are considered to reasonably<br>reflect the increased||
||activity.||
||A number ofitems for improvement<br>were identified<br>in previous reports||
||and the Trustees have advised that although<br>some further progress has||
||been made on implementation,<br>the advent ofa new Treasurer and the||
||Covid situation<br>has held back on their completion.<br>As and when the||
||situation eases, the Trustees may wish to review the pace and extent of||
||this work.||
||Finally,<br>in the light ofthe global situation,<br>it is worth noting that, should||
||all funding cease and the Trustees be required to return<br>all uncommitted||
||contractual<br>funds previously<br>received from D&G, then with current cash||
||funds ofES3,858 it is reasonable to expect that operations<br>could continue||
||at some level.||
