The trustees consider that an audit is not required forlhis year under seciion 144121 of the Charities Act 2011 Ithe 2011 Actl and that an independent examination is needed.

Basls ol Independent examlner'5 report My examination was carfied out in accordance with the general Directions gNen by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a remew ofthe accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented wrth those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual itsms or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations Iromyou as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provtde allthe evidence that would be required in an auditand consequentlyno oplnion Is &ven as towhetherthe accounts present a'true and fairviev¥ and the report is timited to those matters setoutin the statement below. Independent examlner's statement In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 111 which gives me re350nable cause to believe that in any material respect the iequirements= to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 ofthe 2011 Act. and to prepafe accounts which accord with the accounting recoids and complywith the accounting requirements ol the 2011 Act have not been met, or 121 to which, in my opinion, attention should be dravm in order ro enai)le a proper understanding ol the accounts to be reached.

members, following a very successful

has also rebranded from its previous name

The team is working towards being directly
taskable by Cumbria Police via Sarcall, a
web application used by all Mountain
Rescue teams in Cumbria. This will enable
a quicker alerting process for the team
enabling prompt response times. We hope
to have this completed in Q2 of 2024.
The team has seen several significant
callouts in the last 12 months with our
service being held in high regard by partner
agencies, as a result of the hard work and
dedication of our team members.

outreach courses in Water Awareness and
First Aid and have done several talks and

of the The cost-of-living crisis as well as rising fuel costs are having an
principal impact on our fundraising income from the public and corporate
risks facing donators. Additionally, our operational costs have increased due to
the charity having increased fuel usage and cost.
Our continued concern going forward is the next phase of growth for
the charity, where large sums of money will be required to purchase
vehicles and property to facilitate continued expansion and service
delivery.
