Trustees End of Year Charity Commission Report 2023/2024
Westview Community Association has continued to develop thanks to continuing support from the Tudor Trust for a centre manager.
During the financial year the centre manager has continued to develop activities in the centre and the wider community.
The building is used by different external organisations as well as the many activities run by the WCA volunteers and staff.
The youth provision continues to develop with DofE and various other activities on most evenings.
The centre provided support at Christmas to families in need with gifts and food and also hosted a uniform bank for those who struggle to purchase school uniform.
Cooking groups have continued and developed with cooking courses, meals provided for residents and food provided for the young people. The food club continues to be successful supporting families with low-cost food.

The Board of Trustees,

Dear Sirs,
Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Westview Community Association
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Westview Community Association for the 12 month period to 30 November 2024.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts 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 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: 1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records.
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 accounts to be reached.
