## **Independent examiner's report on the accounts** 


**Section A                        Independent Examiner’s Report** 

**Report to the trustees/directors/ members of** 

The Beacon Youth Trust Cambridgeshire 

**On accounts for the year ended** 

31[st] March 2023 

**Charity no.:** 1168752 Company no.: 

**Set out on pages** 

1 and 2 of form CC16a showing receipts and payments for the year. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.  [The charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of [named body]]. _Delete_ [  ] _if not applicable._ 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

**Basis of independent examiner’s statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with 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 the trustees concerning any such matters.  The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention (other than that disclosed below *) to indicate that: 

- accounting records have not been kept in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; 

- the accounts do not accord with such records: 

- where accounts are prepared on an accruals basis, whether they fail to   comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the Companies Act 2006, or are not consistent with the Charities SORP (FRS102) 

- any matter which the examiner believes should be drawn to the attention of the reader to gain a proper understanding of the accounts.

Only complete if the examiner needs to highlight material problems (E.g. Accounting records have not been kept in 

accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; the accounts do not accord with the accounting records; any material expenditure or action which appears not to be in accordance with the trusts of the charity; any failure to be provided with information and explanation by any past or present trustee, officer or employee; and in the case of accruals accounts any material inconsistency between the accounts and the trustees’ annual report, and in the case of a charitable company with the director’s report.)
