INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF HAND OF GOD MINISTRIES, MANCHESTER UK. (Formerly Omega Fire Ministries Manchester) CHARITY REG. NO. 1180 591

I report on the accounts of the trust for the period ended 31 December 2024 which are set out on pages 3 & 4

Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Examiners

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 2011Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 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 commission under section 145 (5) (b) of the 2011 Act
State whether particular matters have come to my attention

Basis of Independent Examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commissioners. 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 Trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently we do not express any 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 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 a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached
