## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Significant activities** 

The Trustees are once again pleased to announce that this financial year has been a very successful year at Hebburn Sea Cadets.  Our Management Team, Staff and Cadets are once again able to meet face to face to meet the curriculum in order to provide our cadets with the true Sea Cadet Experience.  Boating, which is one of our principal activities has been elevated during this financial year by the addition of a Boating Pontoon, which allows us to carry out this activity, irrespective of tidal situations. Hebburn Sea Cadets continues to excel at National and Northern Area Level, once again receiving the Sea Cadets highest award of a Burgee. 

## **Public Benefit** 

Our connection with the people of Hebburn and surrounding area has continued to flourish with the lifting of Covid Restrictions.  Our Cadets are extremely keen to attend as many local events as possible, enabling the name of Hebburn Sea Cadets to live on throughout the local community.

## **Independent Examiner's report to the board of Trustees on the preparation of the accounts of Hebburn Unit 176 of the Sea Cadets Corps for the year ended 31 March 2022** 

I report to the Trustees on my examination of the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2022. 

## **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(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is required. 

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under Section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act); and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of the Independent examiner's report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. 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 present a true and fair view. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

- accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act. 

- the accounts do not accord with the accounting records. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn, in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts, to be reached.
