Charity Commission under section 14515)Ibl of the 2011 Act.
My examlnatlon was carried out in accordance wlththe general Directions given bythe 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 anaudlt
and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fairview, and the
report is limited to those matters set out in the next statement.

with the Èxamination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
11 accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act;
or
21 the accounts do not accord wlth those records.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection withthe examination to which
attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be
reached.
