**General Report – Addi�onal Details:** 

## Objec�ves and Ac�vi�es, Charitable Purpose & Achievements 

Derby and the surrounding area in par�cular but not exclusively by making dona�ons to Hospitals, Health-related projects, chari�es and organisa�ons, primarily from money raised by an annual Christmas choir concert.” 

In this period, we have furthered this aim by 

- a) Dona�ng £3000 to Derby & Burton Hospitals Charity, earmarked for the Kings Lodge Neurological Rehabilita�on Unit, 

- b) Dona�ng £500 to Derby & Burton Hospitals Charity, earmarked for the “Art In Hospital” project, 

- c) Raising £3000 for dona�on to Derby’s Children’s Hospital (via Derby & Burton Hospitals Charity), to be donated in the following period, 

- d) Raising £1000 for dona�on to Derby’s Same Day Emergency Care Unit (via Derby & Burton Hospitals Charity), to be donated in the following period. 

These funds were raised by producing two Christmas Concerts, one in December 2023 and one in December 2024. As shown in the accounts, money was raised through concert-�cket sales, raffle �cket sales and dona�ons (including gi� aid where possible).  The selec�on of beneficiaries was made in accordance with our Grant Making Policy. 

## Financial Review 

summary sheet is provided for the (combined) full repor�ng period, and the two detailed reports are atached for each internal period.  These internal period reports were prepared by our Independent Examiners.  Our current financial posi�on is healthy. 

including venue hire, adver�sing, music, insurance, equipment hire etc. – typically in the range £1000-£2000.  It should be noted that the cash balance at the end of the current repor�ng period is significantly greater than our reserves-requirement, as it includes £4000 raised in the 2024 concert not yet donated to the nominated 

a result of charity rules for the first repor�ng period since charitable status granted); this period starts on the date the choir became a registered charity (25 September 2023) and ends on 28 February 2025.  The main period of our ac�vity (Christmas Concert Fundraising) runs from September to January, and this report covers two fundraising events.  Accordingly, Income and Expenditure are approximately double what would be seen in an annual report covering a 12-month period of the choir. 

## Structure, Governance and Management 

The Choir’s governing document is its Cons�tu�on, a copy of which is lodged with the Charity Commission.  The Choir is a Charitable Incorporated Organisa�on. 

The Trustees are elected by the choir members at the Annual General Mee�ng. Each Trustee is elected for a period of one year, but any trustee may stand for immediate re-elec�on.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Derby Hospitals Choir** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Derby Hospitals Choir ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 28th February 2025. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible  for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as  carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). 

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.
