It. Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Tarvin Community Centre I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31 March 2026. 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(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 201 l Act) and that an independent examination is needed. My 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 present a 'true and fair view. and the report is limited to those matters set out in the next statement. In connection with rny examination, no matter h&s come to my attention: ( l )which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements to keep proper accounting records and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements have not been met. or (2)to which, in my Opinio￿ attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper undeTStanding of the accounts to be reached Name: Relevant professional qualification or body: s.-rtCMA Address: Date: 2f/ts I102ts ## **Trustees’ Annual Report for the period** **From 1.4.25 Period start date To 31.3.26 Period end date Charity name: TARVIN COMMUNITY CENTRE** ## **Charity registration number: 506560** ## **Objectives and Activities** ||SORP reference|| |---|---|---| |Summary of the purposes of

children’s theatre arts sessions during

Cheshire Rural Touring Arts umbrella), as
well as private parties, charity events and
other ad hoc bookings| |Statement confirming
whether the trustees have
had regard to the guidance
issued by the Charity|Para 1.18|In setting its hiring fees the Committee has

benefit and has set its fees at a level which

benefit||which favours village organisations who
pay the lowest rate; outside organisations
pay a slightly higher rate and businesses a
higher rate again. Lettings to businesses,
local government and other public bodies
were welcomed but village organisations
continued to have priority. The Committee
agreed to increase its hiring fees by 2.5%
in line with inflation with effect from 1 April.
Lettings income was sufficient to cover the
