I report ort the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 28 February 2022 which are sel oul on pages 8
to 15.
The ch8rity's trustee5 are responsible for thc preparation of the accounts. The charily's truslee5 consider
that an audit ps not required for thi5 year under section 144 of the Charities Act 201 l and ihat an
independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility lo:
Examin¢ ih¢ accounts under section 145 of ihe ChariliesA¢l,
To follow the procedures laid down in the General Direclions given by the Chariry Commission
(under section 145(5)(b) of (he Act and
To stale whether particular matters have come to my attention.
My examinalion was carried oui in accordance wilh the General Dir¢¢tions given by the Charity
Commission. An examinalion includes a review of ihe accounling records kept by the charily and a
comparison of the accounts presenied with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusu81
items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trusi¢¢s conc¢rning &ny such
mattcrs. The proccdures undertakcn do not providc all the evidence thai would be requir¢d in an audit, ond
con5equenily, no opinion is given as lo whether the accounts pr¢s¢nt a 'true or fair, vicw and Ihc rcport is
limited lo those matters set oul in the stalement below.
In lh¢ Course of my ¢xaminotion, no mat¢¢r ho$ ¢om¢ ¢0 my 8ltention:
(1) which givcs me reasonable cause (o believe ihal in. any material re5pe¢l. Ihe requiremenls;
to ke¢p proper accountin8 records in a¢cordan¢¢ with s¢ction 130 of the Charities Act; and
to prepare accounls thal accord with the accounting records and comply with the
ac¢ountin8 requirem¢nts of the Charilies Act have not been metor
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in ord¢r to ¢nable a proper understanding of
th¢ a¢rount to b¢ reach¢d.
(3) These accounls and report5 have not been audiled.
