Achievements and Performance SORP reference Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity's work has made to the circumstanc85 of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to soaety as a whole. The team has ¢onts'nued to develop in leaps and bounds this year. Activation of the team by our statutory partners is now fully embedded using Sarcall, with several high-profile missing p8rsons cases being worked. Parn 1.20 The team is now working on relocating to a new home in conjunction with the Laurie Brewis Trust. This project is thè enabler for several key improvement5 to the team's capabilities, including capacity boostino, new technology and new resources. We hopè to build on our newfound partnerships with s8V8ral other organisalions ov8r the upcoming year. NCSAR has also hugely increased the numb8r of hours spent on outreach and community engagement, now approaching 20Wo of our total volunteer hours, with youth and school groups being particularly keen to work with us.

Respective responsibilities of the trustees and examiner The trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144121 of the Charitieg Act 2011 (the 2011 actl and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to: Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act..

Basis of independenl examiner's report 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 he the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the aeeounts. and seeking explanations from you as truslees 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 "tiue and fair vi8w" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the gtatement b810w. Independent examiner's statement In connection with my examination. no matter has cometo myattention.. 111 Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements.. .
