## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT**
Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) The Limelight Church I report on the accounts of the above Charity for the year ended 30 November 2025 set out on pages 5 to11.
## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and independent examiner**
The Trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006, (“the 2006 Act”). The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and that an independent examination is needed.
- It is my responsibility to: * examine the accounts under section 145 of the Act * to follow the procedures laid down in the general Direction given by the Charity commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charites Act, and * to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **Basis of independent 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 consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the 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:
- accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; or
- the accounts do not accord with such records; or • the accounts do not comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 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
- the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102).
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.
