Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of Mary Clementina Benthall Trust

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities Act 2011 (the ‘Act’) and the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 (the ‘Regulations’). You are satisfied that your charity is not required by charity law to be audited and have chosen instead to have an independent examination. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under section 145 and 146 of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner’s statement

My examination is carried out in accordance with the requirements of the Regulations, the directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act and Charities Commission Guidance CC32.

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 seeks 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 I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.

Independent examiner’s statement

I have completed my examination. In the course of 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 Act and the Regulations
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records
to prepare accounts in a correct format under the Regulations

have not been met, or

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