## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE FARNHAM ROYAL VILLAGE HALL**
I have examined the financial statements of the Farnham Royal Village Hall for the year ended 31[st] December 2022, which comprise the statement of Financial Activities, the Balance sheet, and the related notes. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable with the law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and its trustees as a body, for my examination work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.
## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner**
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011(the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. I am qualified to undertake such examination by being a qualified certified member of the Certified Public Accountants Association. It is my responsibility to:
- Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act.
- To follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
- To state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **Basis of independent examiner’s report**
My examination was carried out in accordance with the 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 you as 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 next statement.
## **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:
- To keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act and
- To prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act, have not been met.
- The accounts have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
## **Matters on which I am required to report by exception.**
I have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you, if in our opinion:
- The information given in the trustees’ report is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements, or
- Sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
- The financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns, or
- I have not received all the information and explanations I require for my examination.
