Description of the assets Cash held in this capacity Name and objects of the Chorleywood Primary PTALike most PTAs, the charity on whose behalf majority of our funds are raised through the events the assets are held and that we run. Some of our most popular events are: how this falls within the Christmas Fair Summer Fair Quiz Family Fun custodian charity’s Nights. We also run events like Children’s gift sales objects for Christmas and Mothers/Father’s Day. So you can see there is always something going on. We always try and respond to the children’s requests via the School council; it is great to see them having fun at the events or enjoying using a piece of new equipment that the PTA has donated. We raise money in other ways too. Donations from parents are extremely important. You can donate time, money, items for sale, raffle prizes and auction lots or offers of services and skills. We have now introduced Gift Aid. Details of arrangements n/a for safe custody and segregation of such assets from the charity’s own assets

## **Report on the Financial Statements for Chorleywood Primary School PTA (Charity), year ended 1[st] September 2022**
The charity’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 of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Charities Act”) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
1. examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
2. to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
3. to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **Basis of independent examiner’s statement**
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the 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 the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
## **Independent examiner’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 material respect, the requirements:
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act have not been met; or
2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
