Weaverham Community Association
Independent Examiner's Report to the Trnstee5 of
We¥dv¢rham Community A$soci8tiou
I report on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 30 September 2022 which are set out
on pages 8t0 13.
Respective responsibilities of tru$tees 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 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993
and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to..
examine the accounts (under section 43(3)(a) of the 1993 Act).
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Chartty
Commissioners (under section 43(7)(b) of the 1993 Act). and
to state whether parttcular 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 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 provtde 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.

Weaverbam Community Association
Independent examiD¢r'$ statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
which gives me reasonable ￿U8¢ to believe that in any material respect the requirements
to keep accounting records in a￿OrdanCe with section 41 of the 1993 Act. and
to prepare accounts which a¢cord with the accounting ￿ordS and to comply with the
accounting requirements of the 1993 Act
have not been met. or
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper
understanding of the accounts to be reach￿.
