ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025
Independent Examiner's Report To The Trustee Of THE DUELL AND HAWES ADVANCEMENT IN LIFE CHARITY
We report on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31st March 25, which are attached.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2001 (The Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is our responsibility to examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity commissioners (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and to state whether particular matters have to come to our attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
Our examination was carried out in accordance with the General Direction 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 presents a 'true and fair' view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with our examination, no matter has come to our attention which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act have not been met, or to which, in our opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
