trust to a Charitable
Incorporated Organisation
(CIO)|For many years, Winchester Rotary operated its charitable
activities under the terms of a Trust Deed dated 29th June
1981, (Registered Charity number: 283632)
At a Special General Meeting of the members in November
2021, the membership voted for transition into a Charitable
Incorporated Organisation (CIO)
A CIO Constitution was created to reflect the same objects
as the existing Trust Fund, and submitted to the Charity
Commission.
The Charity Commission completed the registration of the
CIO on 28th April 2022.
Because the Rotary year runs from 1st July to 30th June,
the Trustees decided to commence operation under the
CIO identity on 1st July 2022
and
obligations of the Trust Fund to the Trustees of the CIO.
As from 1st July 2022 Winchester Rotary charitable
activities have been conducted under the name of
Winchester Rotary Charitable Incorporated Organisation.
A new Bank Account was set up with CAF Bank, and
HMRC recognition of the CIO for Gift Aid was given 30th
January 2023 (effective from 28th April 2022)| 4 ## **Reference and Administrative details** **----- Start of picture text -----**

I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 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 charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 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.
