l ￿pOrt lo the trustees on my examination L)f the finaw* ststements of First Churth of Christ. ScAentsst,
8oumemoulh (the chafityl for the year ended 31 December 2024.
R•8ponslbllltl•s and basis of report
As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the weparation of the financial slatements in a¢¢ordan¢e
th the requirements of the CharitiesAct 2011.
I report in re5ped of my examination of the charTtls ffinanual slalements carried OLrt under seciion 145 of the
Charities Act 2011. In carrying out my examination I have followed thè Dirocbons givèn by the Charty
Commission under sectKsn 145{5}{bl of the Charibes Ad 2011.
1ndependentenmine￿8 $tstsm•nt
I havè completed my examination. I confimi that no malters have come to my attgnlion in connedion wlh th&
examination giving me cause lo befjeve that in any m3leri31 respect..
accounting records were not kept in respecl of the charity as required by seth.on 130 of the Charities Act
2011.
the finana81 statements do not a¢cg)rd with those reLy)r¢Js', or
the finanoal st*ements do not comply with the ap￿ICable requirgments eonceming thè fom and conlenl
of financial stslements sèt out in the Charilies IAcrx)unts and Rèpottsl Regulations 2008 other than any
requirement that the finanty81 slalements give a true arNI fair view, which is not a matter considered as
part of an independent examination.
I have no ¢oncèms and have come across no other matters in connection with thè Èxamination to which
attention shouhy be drawn in report in order lo enatAe a proper understsnding of tt)e financaal slalements to
be reached.
