It is our responsibility to state, on the basis of procedures specified in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under Section 43 (7)(b) of the Act, whether particular matters have come to our attention. ## **Basis of independent examiner's report** Our 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 unusal items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not express any audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. ## **Independent examiner's statement** In connection with our examination, no matter has come to our attention. (i) which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirement - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act and - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply - with the accounting requirements of the Act have not been met, or (ii) to which, in our opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached Fortus East Limited Accountants 6-7 Castle Gate Castle Street Hertford SG14 1HD 31 March 2023 4
