## **Report to the trustees of Highclere Village Hall** 

## **On the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2022 Charity** 

## **no.  301852** 

## **Set out on page** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended 31[st] March 2022. 

## **Responsibilities 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 2011 (“the Act”). 

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed 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 which give me cause to believe that, in any material respect: 

- accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Act, or 

- the accounts do 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 order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. 

Signed
