Para 1.20 | 2025, Chingford Amateur Dramatic and Operatic Society has performed three major productions. The first two, Beyond The Bricks and a Modern Music Hall were specially written pieces to commemorate the centenary of Mornington Hall. The final production was Antigone, which was performed in the round and later reprised for the Waltham Forest Festival of Theatre. All of these productions received various awards with local and regional recognition. Our Young Stars group provides opportunities for drama loving youngsters, in both performance and writing. Various fundraisers included classical music performances and choirs, as well as writing and dancing. Other local events were supported and hall hiring for other groups has continued to grow. These enable classes in various forms of exercise and inclusion, such as Pilates, Tai Chi and toddler groups and baby massage. |

Report to the trustees Chingford Amateur Dramatic & Operatic Society On accounts for the year 31[st] March 2025 Charity no 1199238 ended (if any) Set out on pages (remember to include the page numbers of additional sheets)
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended 31 / 03 / 2025.
Responsibilities and As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the basis of report 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 [The charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to examiner's statement undertake the examination by being a qualified member of [insert name of applicable listed body]]. Delete [ ] if not applicable.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination (other than that disclosed below *) which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
-
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
-
the accounts did 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.
- Please delete the words in the brackets if they do not apply.
