## **Independent Examiner’s Report on the Ashford Borough Museum Society’s Accounts for year ended 31[st] December 2023** 

1. I report on the accounts of the Ashford Borough Museum Society for the year ended 31[st] December 2023. 

2. Scope and nature of examination: 

An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Society 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 management committee and/or treasurer 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. 

In undertaking this examination, I have used as a reference point the requirements for accounts and examinations as set out in the Charities Act 2011. 

## 3. 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 which gives me cause to believe that, in any material respect: 

- the accounting records were not kept soundly _(as would be required in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act)_ ; or 

- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
