## **Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of New Covenant Ministries (‘the Trust’)** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 21 JANUARY 2021. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). You are satisfied that your charity is not required by charity law to be audited and have chosen instead to have an independent examination. 

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed the requirements of all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; and 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Regulation of the Charity Commission. 

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 accounts to be reached.
