## **TRUSTEE REPORT**
Our Trustees are – Pamela Gustard Brett Wilkinson Clair Johnston Vanessa Madden A Draper
Welcome to our 2023 AGM Since the last AGM we have continued to grow. Many fundraising events have taken place this year, Climbing Wall Great North Run Salsa Evening Coast to Coast Bike Ride Raffles, Client’s sales and much much more. This funding has enabled NAUK to increase emotional support (we now have a councillor once a week) More physio support has also been organised. We have been able to organise outside activities: Adaptive Surfing Climbing Wall Pot-a-doodle Glamping Pods Sunderland University – We are providing short term placements for 2nd year medical and phycology students once again. Medical students are able to interact with our clients in a community setting. There are plans to continue with this practice and a new cohort of students is planned. 6 will start very soon. We will continue to work with other agencies and groups to support our clients in 2023/24
We would like to thank everyone for their continued support Staff and volunteers for their dedication. Without you NAUK would not be the success it is today.
We would also like to say a huge thank you to Trina Walker (Centre Manager) for her continuing support and help liaising with Ouston Community Centre.

## **Independent Examiner's Report Year to 31st March 2023**
## **Independent examiners report to the trustees of NeuroActive UK**
I report of the financial statements of the charity for the year 1st April 2022 to 31st March 2023, which set out on the pages 5 to 13.
This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 and regulations made under section 154 of that act. My work has beam undertake so that I might state to the charity's trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's trustees, as a body, for my work or for this report.
## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner**
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this period under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 ("the Charities Act") and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
1. Examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act
2. Follow procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charities Commission under section 145 (5) (b) of the Charities Act
3. State whether particular matters have come to my attention
## **Basis of independent examiners report**
My examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given by the Charity Commiss An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of accounts represented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning those 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 represent a "true and fair" view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

## **Independent Examiner's Report (continued) Year to 31st March 2023**
Independent examiners report to the trustees of NeuroActive UK
## **Independent examiner's statement**
In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in any material respect:
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; or the accounts did not accord with the such records; or
the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements under section 396 of the Companies A 2006 other than any requirement that the accounts give a "true and fair" view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102)
I 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 should be reached.
