Financial Review
All funds for the year were through donations and grants, and we have adopted the Gift Aid Scheme.
As the group's income and expenditure is very small and consequently does not have sufficient funds to invest in longer-term investments such as stock and shares. The Group has therefore adopted a low-risk strategy to the investment of its funds. All funds are held in cash using a Lloyds Bank Treasurer's Account with 2 signatories required for all payments.
our assets at the end of the financial were 9 Trishaw

I have completed the audit of Financial Accounts for 2024/25. They are all in order & really well documented. I only have 1 very minor question as to whether an entry relates to 2024 or 2025 accounts but otherwise I am happy to sign everything off. I wasn't sure if you also wanted to produce a Income & Expenditure summary for me to sign for your own internal purposes ?
How & when would you like me to return all the documentation.
Regards Steve
