David A Hopkins Chartered Accountant 7 King Street, Wrexham LL11 1HF Telephone (01978) 364331

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE GROVE PARK THEATRE

I report on the Accounts of the Theatre for the year ended 31[st] July 2021 which are set out on pages 1 to 7.

Respective responsibilities of members of the Theatre and Examiner

As members of the Theatre, you are responsible for the preparation of Accounts you consider that the audit requirements of section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act) does not apply. It is my responsibility to state on the basis of procedures specified in the General Direction given by the Charity Commissioners under section 43(7) of the Act whether . particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of Independent Examiner’s Report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes review of the accounting records kept by the Theatre 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 members of the Theatre concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken 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 by the Accounts.

Independent Examiner’s Statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:-

  1. Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act and to prepare Accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the Act have not been met,

or

  1. To which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the Accounts to be reached.
