## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2025** 

## **Responsibilities of the Trustees** 

Charity law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable trust as at the balance sheet date and of its  incoming resources and applications of resources, including income and expenditure, for the financial year. In preparing those financial statements the Trustees should follow best practice and 

- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- Prepare the financial statements on the on- going basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that 

- the charity will  continue on that basis. 

The Trustees are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time financial position of the charity and enables them to ensure that the financial statements comply with Companies Act 2006. The Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

## **Members of the Board of Trustees** 

Members of the Board of Trustees, and trustees for the purpose of charity law, who served during the year and up to the date of this report are set out on page 1. 

In accordance with charity law, as trustees, we certify that: 

So far as we are aware, there is no relevant information of which the charity's accountants are unaware; and as the trustees of the charity, we have taken all steps that we ought to have taken in order to make ourselves aware of any relevant information and to establish that the Charity's accountants are aware of that information.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES** ~~**OF**~~ 

I report on the accounts of the Trust for the period ended 31 March 2025, which are set out on pages 10 to 13. 

## **RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER** 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144 (2) of the Charities Act 2012 (the 2012 act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility: 

- to examine the account under section 145 of the 2012 Act; 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Direction given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2012 Act; and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention 

## **BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination 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. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT** 

In connection with my examination, 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 2012 Act 

   - and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2012 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.
