Independent Examiner's Report to COMMUNITIES WORKING TOGETHER WORLDWIDE
COMMUNITIES WORKING TOGETHER WORLDWIDE
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025 set out on pages five to seven.
Respective responsibilities of COMMUNITIES WORKING TOGETHER WORLDWIDE and examiner
COMMUNITIES WORKING TOGETHER WORLDWIDE is responsible for the preparation of the accounts. COMMUNITIES WORKING TOGETHER WORLDWIDE consider that an audit is not required for this year (under Section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the 1993 Act)) and that an independent examination is required.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under Section 43(3)(a) of the 1993 Act
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under Section 43(7)(b) of the 1993 Act); and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of the independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the 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 COMMUNITIES WORKING TOGETHER WORLDWIDE concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent examiner's 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, the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 41 of the 1993 Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the 1993 Act have not been met; or
-
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
