a central point of daily
activities.
To manage the Cylch Meithrin
on a day-to-day basis we need
to ensure that the level of
staffing and income is raised
and available.
To increase opening hours
available for the children
attending the setting, we are
currently looking at adding an
hour for lunch wrap around
cover or an hour breakfast
club.
The setting has now opened an
extra hour to accommodate a
lunch club to assist parents,
working parents and carers.
Allowing children to stay an
extra hour is an asset to the
daily running of the Cylch

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CYLCH MEITHRIN CRYMYCH

I report on the accounts of the Charity for the period ended 31[st] March, 2024 which are set out per the attached document.

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 for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Charities Act”) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includers 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 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 matter has come to my attention:
