TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED APRIL 2023 

## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities** 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards. 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently. 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP. 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent. 

- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements. 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity Regulations 2008and the constitution. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF TACTYC 

I report on the accounts for the year ended April 2023. 

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

The trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act. 

- follow the procedure laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act: and 

- 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 Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept 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 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: 

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 with accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting 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 reached.
