## **New Hope Community Church Independent Examination Report**
## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of New Hope Community Church**
I report on the accounts of New Hope Community Church for the Year ended 31[st ] March 2023.
## **Respective responsibilities of Trustees and examiner**
The charity's Trustees 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(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to: examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **Basis of Independent examiners report**
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 a consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees 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 examiners 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 requirement to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 act and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or
- 2) To which in my opinion attention should be drawn in order to enable proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
