## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES**
## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 August 2021**
The Trustees have pleasure in submitting the Report and Accounts for the year.
## **Objects of the charity**
The Trust seeks to advance the education of children below compulsory school age by:
a) providing safe and satisfying group play, in which parents have the right to take part; b) encouraging other charitable activities through which parents may help the children; c) furthering the aims of the Pre-school Playgroups Association.
## **Government**
The policy and operating decisions of the charity rest with the Committee who meet regularly to monitor the activities of the Trust.
New committee members are appointed by the Trustees and the committee members.
## **Review of Activities**
In planning the activities the Trustees have applied the guidance on public benefit issued by the Charity Commission in December 2008.
## **Financial Review**
Income for the year was £39,541 (2020 £44,2522). Expenditure for the year was £38,426 (2020 £46,873).
There is £26,663 cash at bank (2020 £25,549). The trustees believe this is a sound basis for the continued development of the charity.
## **Trustees' Responsibilities**
Charity law requires us as Trustees to prepare financial statements for each accounting year which record the receipts and payments of the charity for the year.
We are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable us to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011.
We also have a responsibility to safeguard the assets of the charity and to take reasonable steps to prevent fraud or any other irregularities.
## **Approval**
This report was approved by the trustees on 28 June 2022 and signed on their behalf by:

Independent Examiner's Report To the Trustees of
## **Hatfield Broad Oak Under 5's**
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31st August 2021 set out on pages 4 to 6 which have been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies on page 6.
## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner**
The trustees of the charity are responsible for the preparation of accounts; they consider that the audit requirement under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act ), does not apply. It is my responsibility to :
- examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Act.
- follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners made
- under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
- state 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 Commissioners. 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 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**
Based on my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect, accounting records have not been kept in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act, or that the accounts presented do not accord with those records, or comply with the accounting requirement of the 2011 Act. No matter has come to my attention in connection with my examination to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
