I report on the accounts for the year ended 31st December 2024, which are set out on pages 6 to 7.
Respectlve rosponslbilities of trustees and examiner
The charty'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 {Ihe 2011 Act) and
that an independent examination is needed.
It is my rèsponsibilty to..
examine Ihe accounts under secllon 145 of the 2011 AGI",
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under
section 14515)Ibl of the 2011 Act., and
to stste whether particular matters have come to my attention.
8asls of Independent examiners 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 charty and a
comparison of the account$ presented with Iho6e racords. It also inelude$ consideration of any unusual
items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees conceming any such
matters. I he prO￿a￿re$ un(lertaken do not provide all the evidence ihat woul¢J be requlred In an au¢Jrt and
cons8quently na Dpinion ig given as to whp.*hp.r thp. accounts present a 'true and fair view, and the report is
limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent exarniner'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 mat6rial 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; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper und8rstanding of the
accounts to be reached.
