Annual Accounts Year Ended 31 Sl December 2024
Independent Examiner's Certificate
For the PCC Accounts
Report to the trustees of Blaby Parochial Church Council
On accounts for the year ended 31 December 2024
Charity Number 1206872
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The
charity's trustees consider than an audit is not required for this year under section 144
of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is
needed.
It is my responsibility to..
-examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act
-to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity
Commission (under section 145 (5)(b) of th¢ Charities Act, and
-to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of indep¢ndent examiner's statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the
Charity Commission. 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 consÉderation of th¢ unusual items or disclosures in th¢ accounts and
seeking explanations from the 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
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, and
-to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the
accounting requirements of the Charities Act
have not been met.
