## **Chairman’s Statement** 

This is the ninth annual report of The Ray Collins Charitable Trust. 

This year we have held our annual carnival, Christmas and Easter dinner with Hampers for the Elderly and the families. 

This Year we were able to run the Christmas Day and Easter dinners and Hampers for elderly and vulnerable and assist with Flu and Covid Clinics. 

In the past year, we have raised over £39,000 in cash and cash equivalents, which has been ploughed back into helping those in the local community who need our help. Our mission is to continue this for 2025 and to continue to work to mitigate the impact of the cost of living crisis as much as possible. Net income over expenditure for 2024 was -£6k (2023: £9k). 

As always, we owe a huge debt of gratitude to all the volunteers and management group for helping us in the work that we do. We also owe a huge debt of gratitude to those who contribute financially, from donations through our website (raycollinstrust.org), and the many contributions by individuals, local businesses and councils which allow us to continue to make such a huge difference in our wonderful community. 

Ray Collins

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

**Section A                        Independent Examiner’s Report Report to the trustees/** The Ray Collins Charitable Trust **members of On accounts for the year** 31 December 2024 **Charity no** 1173358 **ended (if any) Set out on pages** 1 & 2 I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended 31 December 2024. **Responsibilities and** As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the **basis of report** 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 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

**Independent** I have completed my examination.  I confirm that no material matters have **examiner's statement** come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: 

- the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or 

- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

- the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. 

**Signed: Date:** 28/03/2025 **Name:** Chloe Dennis **Relevant professional** ACCA **qualification(s) or body (if any): Address:** 3 Whitworth Way, Wantage, OX12 0NZ
