REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER TO THE TRUSTEES OF LIVING CHRIST MINISTRY. CHARITY NUMBER 1181379 FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
I report on the income and expenditure of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020
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 this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (The 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
to follow the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commissin (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act, and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention
Basis of independent examiner's statement
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 by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unsual items or disclosures 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 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 material matters have come to my attention 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 income and expenditure did not accord with accounting records; or
-
the income and expenditure did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of the accounts set out in
-
the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulation 2008 other than any requirement that the Income and Expenditure 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 Income and expenditure to be reached.
