Bath Opera - Charity Number 1185066 

Accounts for the year to 31st August 2021 



## **Independent Examiner’s report to the trustees of Bath Opera** 

I have examined the accounts of Bath Opera for the year ended on 31st August 2021. 

## **Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and the Examiner** 

As trustees of the Bath Opera you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements. You consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.  I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Association of Accounting Technicians. 

It is my responsibilty to: 

examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(b) of the 2011 Act and 

to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of this 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 Bath Opera and a comparison of the financial statements with those records. It also includes considering any unusual items or disclosures in the statements and seeking explanations from you as 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 statements present a ‘true and fair view’. 

## **Independent Examiner’s statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements 

to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the 2011 Act and 

to prepare statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements the Statement of Recommended Practice by Charities 

have not been met. 

Neither have I found any matter to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements.
