This enables many to join in worship<br>and benefit from Bible teaching.<br>All morning services have been both in person and via<br>Zoom. This is a real benefit to all who joined.

and children to understand the message of Easter in the Christian faith. Regular weekly prayer meetings continued which addressed world humanity issues, those serving in the Christian mission field, the bereaved and for those in need. Many cards and flowers, expressing care, sympathy and concern have been sent to those with health, or other care needs. Supporting friends and families is an important part of the work of the Chapel, listening to people’s worries and problems. Regular monthly visiting was continued by a local Christian worker and Chapel members, to homes in the surrounding Polden villages area. This aims to share the Christian message and was welcomed by many of those visited and they were given Chapel welcome leaflets and Christian booklets. The Men’s Breakfasts continued, every 2-3 months and were enjoyed and attended by 25 to 30 local men from a number of Christian denominations and non Christians at the Crown Inn, Catcott. This is a great encouragement to men and also supports the local Inn. 25 copies of the Scripture Union booklet, ‘Your Move’, was given to the Year 6 school leavers at Catcott school. This helps and supports children moving to secondary school. In August, Trevor Ranger came and led a family service which was followed by lunch and a number of other children and their families attended the Chapel. Coffee mornings continued when possible in the Chapel on a monthly basis for the local community. This is good for meeting local people providing the opportunity for friends to meet, social support for the lonely and bereaved. A free harvest lunch after the Harvest Service, was provided for 65 people in the Chapel. This was a really valuable community event. Harvest produce was donated by church attendees and taken to St Margaret’s Hospice in Taunton. Also a gift of £300 was given to help the work of care at the hospice. £300 was given to support the work of Vom Mission hospital in Nigeria. £1100 was given to support churches and for humanitarian aid in Ukraine. These are two examples of the £10569 given to various 

**Page 4 of 12** 



Missions to support individuals and mission organisations both overseas and in the UK. 184 Christmas shoe boxes were sent to Blythswood, a UK charity. 84 were from the Chapel and the rest from other groups in the community. This was a Chapel and community project which encourages local people and helps and supports disadvantaged people in Eastern Europe **.** The shoe boxes contain basic toiletry needs, children / adult clothes, toys/ other useful, items. Christmas invite / welcome leaflets were produced and distributed in the villages and also 200 special Christmas supplements and calendars with the invites. This is to inform, invite and encourage an interest in the Christian faith in the community. The Polish families from the Chapel organised a Christmas Eve meal / party in the Chapel again for 30 people. This gives support for the Polish community. Maintenance of the chapel buildings and grounds continued. Fence / brickwork around fuel Oil tank repaired. A dehumidifier was installed to control the humidity level to help prevent mold, mildew and dampness in the Chapel. This ensured the buildings were in a good state for use of the congregation and community **.** To improve the quality of overhead presentations new cabling and a new laptop installation was completed in the Chapel.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Edington Chapel.

## **Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner** 

As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts;  you consider that the audit requirement of Section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (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 section 43(7)(b) of the Act, whether particular matters have come to my attention 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner’s 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 accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning 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 Examiner’s Statement** 

In connection with my examination,  no matter has come to my attention: 

- (i) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements 

   - to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 41 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 

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