Summary
ofthe main
achievements
ofthe charity
during the year
For most part of2023, following
2022 time too was spent 'building'
to
regain clients and advertise
for new clients on our Meals on Wheels
service together
with increasing
the footfall
in the Community
Hub and
Cafe —the biggest challenges
faced were due to the economic climate,
(increase costs in services and food and people having less money to
spend).
During this time, the Trustees searched
for funding,
the staff
endeavoured
to cut expenses wherever
possible
in order to keep the
Meals on Wheels service operational
and the Cafe open (in some cases
taking reduced
hours).
In December 2023, we had 7 members
of staff, 7volunteers
and 5
Trustees.
The number
ofTrustees increased
during
the year of2023, all
working as a team to meet the objectives ofthe Charity.
A successful
Christmas
Raffle was held
in December 2023 with fut~
fundraising
and community
activity plans
in place for 2024.

responsibilities
of
The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required
for this year
trustees and examiner under section 43(2)ofthe Charities Act 1993(the 1993Act) and that an
independent
examination
is needed.
It is my responsibility
to:
~
examine the accounts under section 43of the 1993Act,
~
to follow the procedures
laid down
in the general Directions given by the
Charity Commission
(under section 43(7)(b)ofthe 1993Act, and
~
to state whether
particular
matters have come to my attention.
Basis ofindependent My examination
was carried out in accordance
with general
Directions given
examiner's statement by the Charity Commission.
An examination
includes a review ofthe
accounting
records kept by the charity and a comparison
ofthe accounts
presented
with those records.
Italso includes consideration
ofany unusual
items ordisclosures
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 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 41 ofthe 1993
Act; and
~
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting
records
and
comply with the accounting
requirements
ofthe 1993Act
have not been met; or
2. to which,
in my opinion,
attention
should be drawn
in order to enable a
proper understanding
ofthe accounts to be reached.
