## **FUTURE PLANS** 

We continue to have a sound financial asset base with a regular but lower stream of income than was available in earlier years.

If there is a need then the appropriate procedure to involve more consultants will be undertaken accordingly.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES** 

## **YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2020** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 5 April 2021 which are set out on pages 8 to 10. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). 

I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

- accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

- the accounts do not accord with those records 



I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
