AUDIT REPORT ST BONAVENTURES EARLY YEARS FOR THE YEAR
2023-2024
AUDITOR: Ms Lena Long (ACCA)
ADDRESS: 32 Great Clover Leaze, Stoke Gifford, Bristol BS16 1GG
DATE: 16th June 2025
Scope of audit of the Financial Statements
I have examined all records and the Income and Expenditure Account presented to me for any errors or fraud. I am confident that the accounts for the year ended 2023-2024 show financial integrity and that there are no signs of fraud or substantial errors. Any small errors have now been rectified. There are no major points of concern.
