An examination includes a review of the accounting rec- ords kept by the Charity and a comparison of the fman¢ial ststements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statem¢nts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerntng any such matters, The procedures undertak¢n do not provide all the evidence that would b¢ required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on th¢ vi¢w given by the financial statements.
