# **`Independent Examiner's Report for the Year Ended 31 July`** 

```
2024
```

```
To the Trustees of Forum for Access and Continuing Education (FACE)
```

```
I report on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 July 2023, which are
set out on pages four and five.
```

## **`Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner`** 

```
As the charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts: you
consider the audit requirement of section 28(3) of the Charities Act 2006 (the Act)
does not apply.
```

```
It is my responsibility to state, on the basis of procedures specified in the
General Direction given by the Charity Commissioners whether particular matters
have come to my attention.
```

## **`Basis of independent examiner's report`** 

```
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by
the Charity Commission. An examination included a review of the accounting records
kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records.
It also included consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts,
and seeking explanation from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The
procedures undertaken did 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 if limited to those matters set in the
statement below.
```

## **`Independent examiner's statement`** 

```
In connectionwith my examination, no matter has come to my attention (other than
disclosed below):
```

- `(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements to keep accounting records in accordance with section 150 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.`
