Fixed opera)ng costs are kept to a minimum to ensure we are not faced with large financial losses. Sufficient staffing is managed by working with past members and other charitable organisa)ons where appropriate. Other opera)ng risks are managed by the Trustees as they occur.

ended 30 June 2025, which are set out on pages 5 to 11.
Respec've responsibili'es of trustees and examiner
As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the prepara)on of the accounts; you consider that the audit requirement of sec)on 144(2) of the Chari)es Act 2011 (the Act) does not apply. It is my responsibility to state, on the basis of procedures specified in the General Direc)ons given by the Charity Commissioners under sec)on 145 (5)(b) of the Act, whether par)cular maeers have come to my aeen)on.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examina)on was carried out in accordance with the General Direc)ons given by the Charity Commissioners. An examina)on includes a review of the accoun)ng records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes considera)on of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explana)ons from you as trustees concerning any such maeers. 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 connec)on with my examina)on, no maeer has come to my aeen)on:
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements;
-
to keep accoun)ng records in accordance with sec)on 130 of the Act;
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accoun)ng records;
-
to comply with the accoun)ng requirements of the Act;
have not been met; or
- to which, in my opinion, aeen)on should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
