Directors’ responsibilities for preparing the accounts
Company law requires the directors to prepare accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing those accounts, the directors are required to
-
~ select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
~ make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
~ prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.

DEBORAH ASALU & JIDE OLOKUNDUN FOUNDATION INTERNATIONAL REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER TO THE DIRECTORS
I report on the accounts of Deborah Asalu & Jide Olokundun Foundation International for the year ended 31 August 2022 which are set out on pages 5 to 8.
Respective responsibilities of directors
As the directors you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The directors consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in General Directors given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Act); and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent 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 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 directors 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 ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
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 any material respect the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act have not been met; or
-
ii. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
