Merciful Hearts Trustees Annual Report
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
The charity has been pivotal in creating, disseminating and organising various projects to aid refugees in Turkey. Primarily amongst them were projects for food packs designed to help a family over a prolonged period of time and bread programmes designed to provide a steady supply of bread as a staple food source. There were also water projects providing clean water and clothing/blanket drives designed to tackle hostile weather conditions as Winter set in. The impact this has had on beneficiaries is evident and wide reaching, families have been provided with food and clothing, alongside bread and clean water that has allowed them to sustain themselves, despite harsh living conditions. The food and water have provided health, good nutrition and steady food for otherwise hungry individuals and families.
Statement of trustees' responsibilities in relation to the financial statements
The charity trustees are responsible for preparing a trustees' annual report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provisions of the Trust deed. The Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Merciful Hearts Independent Examiners Report
Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Merciful Hearts
I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Merciful Hearts for the period ended 30 June 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and the related notes.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011('the Act'). The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under the Charities Act 2011, s.144(2) (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I can confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
the accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of the financial statements set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the financial statements give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and 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 financial statements to be reached.
