Independent Examiner’s report to the trustees/directors of COMMUNITY FUNERAL RELIEF CIO

I report on the accounts for the year ended 30 June 2023 which are set out on pages 3 to 14.

Respective responsibilities of trustees/Directors and examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees/directors consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 ("the 2011 Act") and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:

· examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act,

· to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act, and

· to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner’s statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with 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 the trustees/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 a ‘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 1. 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 2011 Act; and

· to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act

have not been met ; or

  1. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Expenditure

Recognition of Expenditure is recognised on anaccruals basis.Expenditure includes any VAT which expenditure cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to whch it relates. Expenditure on These comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income,fundraising raising funds trading costs and investment management costs. Expenditure on These comprise the costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of it sactivities and charitable activities services in the furtherance of its objects,including the making of grants and governance costs. Grants payable All grant expenditure is accounted for on an actual paid basis plus an accrualf for grants that have been approved by the trustees at the end of the year but not yet paid. Governance costs These include those costs associated with meeting the constitutionaland statutory requirements of the Charity, including any audit/independent examination fees, costs linked to the strategic management of the Charity, together with a share of other administration costs.

Other expenditure These are support costs not allocated to a particular activity. Taxation The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Intangible fixed assets and amortisation

Intangible fixed assets(including purchase dgoodwill,patents and trademarks) are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairement losses.

Stocks

Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value.Donated items of stock are recognised at fair value which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay for the items on the open market.

Trade and other debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discount due.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand,demand deposits with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturties of three months or less and bank overdrafts.

Page 7

COMMUNITY FUNERAL RELIEF NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

Trade and other creditors

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price.Other creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discount due.

Foreign currencies

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the charityare translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of charity are recorded at the rate of exchange on the date that the transaction occurred.

Leased assets

Where the charity enters into a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease.

Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the charity at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet date as a finance lease obligation.

Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and the reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balancy of liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately, unless they are directly attributableto qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the charity's spolicy on borrowing costs.

Assets held under finance leases are depreciated in the same way as owned assets.

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, suchi ncentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expenses on a straight-line basis.

Pension costs

The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been the company has no further payments obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due.Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held seperately from the company in independently administered funds.

2. Company status

The organisation is a registered Charity organisation and consequently does not have share Capital.
