HILPERTON VILLAGE HALL
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF HILPERTON VILLAGE HALL
I have reviewed the financial statements on pages 6 to 9 for the year ending 31 May 2024 which
comprise of the Statement of Financial Activities. the Balance Sheet and related notes. These financial
statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and accounting policies set out on
page 8.
Respertive responsibilities of trustees and independent examiner
As described on page 2 the Trustees are responsible for ensuring the preparation of the financial
statements. The chariW5 trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under the Charities
Act 1993 and that an independent examination is needed.
As Independent Examiner l accept responsibility for examining the accounts. to follow the procedures laid
down in the general directions given by the Charity Commissioners and to state whether any particular
matters have come to my attention.
I have been appointed as independent examiner under section 43 of the Charities Act 1993 and report in
accordance with regulations made under section 44 of that act.
Basis of independent examinerfs report
This 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 do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not
express an audit opinion on the view given in the accounts.
Independent Examinerfs Opinion
In my opinion the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at
31 May 2024 and of its income resources and application of resources in the financial year. These
accounts have been properly prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 1993 and the Statement of
Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Revised 2005).
