Section D Achievements and performance The chanty has kept the library open when the local authority had tt marked for closure. We have increased the number of regular users of library *rvices, whilst steadily building a diverse programme of events and acttvlbes to meet the needs of a cross section of our community. We reopened in A[￿1 2021 following a prolonged period of lockdown adhering to govemmellt guidance to ensure the safety of our litjrary users and volunleers. and with a Covrd recovery plan in place. We have since exceeded our expectations, both in temis of the numbers of people reluming to the library and the level of fundraising achieved (see financial review). We have built a reptrtation as a community hub. receiving consistently ￿tsve feedback from our local residents who view us a "more than just a library-. Feedback from a former I￿al ward councillor and depLty leader of the council suggests that we are held up as a beacon of excellence within the borough. This has been further recognised by the Deputy Lord kneutenant, Tyne and Wear, who would welcome a nominalion to ts Kings Award for Voluntary Service SGheme.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT

Report to the trustees of: Boldon and Cleadon Community Library Charity No: 1177203

On accounts for the year ending: 31[st] March 2024 Respective The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this responsibilities of year (under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and trustees and that an independent examination is needed. Examiner it is my responsibility to  Examine the accounts (under section 145 of the 2011 Act)  Follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5) of the 2011 Act) and state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions independent given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a examiner’s review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison statement of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosure 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 I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.

Independent In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention: examiner’s 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material statement respect, the trustees have not met the requirements to ensure that:

• Proper accounting records are kept (in accordance with section 130 of the Act) and

• Accounts are prepared which agree with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act.

• to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
