It is my responsibility to examine the accounts under section 145(1)(a) of the Act, to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission and state whether particular matters have come to my attention. ## **Basis of independent examiner's statement** My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination included a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, 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 I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. ## **Independent examiner's statement** In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: - (i) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in my material respect the requirement to keep proper accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act; and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the Act have not been met; or - (ii) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. ## **Independent examiner** ## **Rossendale Responsible Animal Rescue** **Registered number CE018878** **For the year ended 31 May 2022** **Incoming Resources £** Adoptions 14,950 Donations 17,732 Fundraising 11,766 Paypal 20,801 Auction/Hub 5,944 Raffles/Bonus Ball 5,968 Other 4,684 **Total Incoming Resources** 81,845 Vets (66,948) Insurance/finance (952) Pet supplies/treatments (731) Other (2641) **Total Resources Expended** (71,272) **Net resources for year** 10,573 Total funds brought forward 40,927 Total funds carried forward 51,500 The Statement of financial activities includes all gains and losses in the year and therefore a separate statement of total recognised gains and losses has not been prepared.
