## [Report to members of the Church Council of            ] St Edmund,  King & Martyr,  Dudley 

I can confirm that I have examined the financial records of Saint Edmund’s church. 

This included examining the: 

- Invoices 

- Receipts 

- Cheque Book 

- Paying-in Records 

- And the presented account records. 

Throughout my examination, nothing has come to my attention that has given me to believe that the requirements to keep adequate records of the church’s financial transactions have not been met. 

From the examinations I have made, the enclosed Statement of Financial Activities has been prepared using a simple Income and Expenditure system. 

I believe the enclosed pages of this report contain a true and fair record of the church’s accounts for the year ending 31st December 2024
