payments accounts to provide a record of the Charivs financial activities durirTrg the year and
of its position at the end of the year. In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are
required to..

President's Review of the past 6 months
My review covers the first 6 month of this calendar year. During this time. we have recruited
3 new members. However, our long-standing friend Philip Barry resigned after 20 years,
service. Philip received the much-coveted Melvin Jones Fellowship Award. During his time,
he single handedly collerted over 100,Cm pair of glasses for Spectrek for use in developin8
countries and received a community award from the Woodley Town Council for his
unstinting work on the Santa's Sleigh. Our membership currently stands at 20.
The club received a Certificate of Appreciation from District Governor Lion Sandra
Manktelow for our commitment shown in enabling the club to grow in membership and
service and a letter of thanks for our donations to Lions Clubs Internation Foundation ILCIFI.
Clijb members have actively attended and participated in Zone Meetings and organised a
Zone Social Skittles evening in February raising £311 towards club funds. Our ever-popular
Quiz Night in March raised £604 while our resurrected Easter Egg Raffle brou£ht in £308.
Our donation5 amounting to £6.220 included grants to LCIF, Woodley Foodbank, and
contributions to Zone towards a sight Vision camera and The National Association of Blood
Bikes.
Our exciting new project for 2026, working with The Woodley Town Centre Partnership. is a
community event 'Woodley-on-Sea" for which we have pledged £5,000 toward a pop-up
beach and other seaside attractions.

Independent Examinerfs Report to the Trustees of the Lions Club of
Woodley & Earley
I report on the accounts of the club for the 6 months ended 30, June 2025, which are set
OLtt on pages 6 to 9.
Respectlve Responsibiltties of the Trustees and Independent Examiner.
As described on page 3, the Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts,
and consider that the audit requirement of s144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) does not
apply. It is my responsibility to state, on the basis of procedures specified in the General
Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under s14515llbl of the Act. whether
particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examinerfs Report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the
Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by
the charity and a comparison of the accotJnt5 presented with those records. It also includes
consideration of any unusual items or disclosL¢res in the accounts. and the seeking of
explanations from you of any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all
the evidence that would be required in an audit and, consequently, I do not express an audit
opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent Examinerfs Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention..
l. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the
requirements-
to keep accounting records in accordance with s130 of the Act,. and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply
with the accounting requirements of the Act
have not been met- or
2. to which. in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper
understanding of the accounts to be reached.
