Pat van Aalst FMAAT pat@patvanaalst.co.uk 01869 640095 / 07985 790024 16/01/2026

To the Trustees of Rossington Miners’ Welfare Scheme Charity Registration Number: 523813

Independent Examiner’s Report for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

Responsibilities and Basis of Report

As the charity’s trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).

I have been appointed as independent examiner under section 145 of the Act and report in accordance with the regulations made under section 154 of the Act.

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. The 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 the trustees 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 accounts.

Independent Examiner’s Statement

In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention:

which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act; and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the

accounting requirements of the 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 reached.

Yours sincerely,

Patrick van Aalst FMAAT Independent Examiner Pat van Aalst 16/01/2026
