## **Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of The Francis Piggott Walker Charity.**
I report to the Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charities for the year ended 5 April 2022.
## **Responsibility and Basis of Report**
As the Charity Trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2019 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of the Charity Accounts carried out under Section 145 of the 2011 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:
1. Accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by Section 130 of the Act; or
2. The accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. The accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as a part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in thus report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
