## **THE DAUBENEY ALMSHOUSE CHARITY INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st DECEMBER 2023**
**This report on the financial statements of the Trustees for the year ended 31[st] December 2023 which are set out in Pages (3) to (7) in respect of the examination carried out in accordance with Section 43 of the Charities Act 1993**
## **Respectve Responsibilites of the Examiner**
**As members of the board of Trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements. You should consider that the audit requirement of the Regulations and Section 43(2) of the Act do not apply. It is my responsibility to issue this report on those financial statements in accordance with the terms of the regulations.**
## **Basis of the Report**
**My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 43(7) (b) of the Act. That examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Treasurer and a comparison of the Financial Statements with those records. It also includes considering any unusual items or disclosures in the Financial Statements and seeking explanations from you as Treasurer 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 financial statements.**
## **Independent Examiner’s Statement**
**In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:**
- **(1) Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:**
- **a. To keep accounting records in accordance with Section 41 of the Act**
- **b. To prepare Financial Statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with the requirements of the Act and the regulations have been met.**
- **(1) To which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the Financial Statements reached.**
