Independent Examiner's Report
Charity Name: London Schools' Cricket Association
Charity Registration Number: 303325
Financial Year Ended: 31 December, 2024
Taxaccolega Chartered Accountants was appointed as the independent examiner for the charity during the year and has confirmed its willingness to continue in this role. This report covers the financial statements for the period from 1st January 2024 to 31st December 2024.
Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner
The trustees of the charity, who are also its directors for the purposes of company law, are responsible for ensuring that financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 and the Companies Act 2006. The trustees have determined that the charity does not require a full audit under the applicable law but is eligible for independent examination, and that the accounts have been prepared on the receipts and payments basis in accordance with section 133 of the Charities Act 2011.
As the independent examiner, it is my responsibility to:
-
Conduct an examination of the accounts in accordance with section 145 of the Charities Act 2011.
-
Follow the Directions and guidance issued by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act 2011.
-
Report on any matters arising that should be brought to the attention of the trustees or the public.
Basis of Independent examiner’s report
My examination was conducted in line with the Charities Act 2011 and the Charity Commission's guidelines. It involved:
-
Reviewing the charity's accounting records.
-
Comparing the financial statements against the records kept.
-
Seeking explanations from the trustees where necessary regarding unusual or significant entries.
This examination is carried out from an accounting perspective and is less comprehensive than an audit. Its purpose is to review the charity’s accounting records and financial statements to identify any matters that require attention. As an independent examiner, I do not provide an audit opinion or certify that the accounts are free from error, but I report on the matters noted during my review.

Independent examiner’s statement
Based on my examination, no matters have come to my attention which give me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect:
-
Accounting records have not been kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act 2011 or
-
The receipts and payments accounts and statement of assets and liabilities do not accord with those records or fail to comply with the requirements of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 applicable to charities preparing accounts on a receipts and payments basis.
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.
