## **Report of the Independent Examiner to the Directors of the Cross and Stable Charities** 

This report on the financial statements of the Charities for the year ended 31[st] March 2021, which are set out on the attached accounts, is in respect of an examination carried out in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 (“the Regulations”) and s.43 of the Charities Act 1993 (“the Act”). 

## **Respective responsibilities of the Management Committee and the Independent Examiner** 

As members of the Management Committee, you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements; you consider that the audit requirement of the Regulations and s.43 (2) of the Act do not apply and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to issue this report on those financial statements in accordance with the terms of Regulation 25. 

## **Basis of the Independent Examiner’s Report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under s.43 (7)(b) of the Act and to be found in the Church Guidance, 2006 edition. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Management Committee and a comparison of these accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosure 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 I do not express an Audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. 

## **Independent Examiner’s statement** 

In my opinion, the financial statements give a true and fair view of the charity’s state of affairs as at the 31[st] March 2021 and its incoming resources and application of resources in the year then ended. 

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 s.41 of the 1993 Act; and 

   - To prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 1993 Act have not been met; or 

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