## **INDEPENDANT EXAMINERS REPORT** 

## **REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF DEVANHAAR** 

I have reviewed the accounts of the charity for the year ending 31 December 2024. 

My review was carried out in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles and guidelines. This 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. 

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

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

- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act 2011 

- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act 2011 Act have not been met; or 

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