THE DURSLEY LIONS CLUB CHARITY TRUST FUND TRUSTEE’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES
Charity law requires us as trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity, and of the profit or loss of the charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:-
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
We are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable us to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. We are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Trustees
The Board members are: T Hunt R Robins S Woodward K Griffiths P Hayes R Stannard H Pettitt N Baldwin J Toffi S Clements T Grocutt D Waugh Plus all other members of the Club.
Principal Activities
The principal activities of the charity throughout the year were:-
-
1) The principal objectives of the charity are to raise money to support the needy of the Dursley area, and to support other charities and organisations for the benefit of the general population as a whole. There were no significant changes in this activity during the year.
-
2) The major fund raising event is the sale of Second Hand Furniture from premises in Dursley £3,540 (2020 £13,367).
Reserves Policy
The Designated General Fund represents the cost of the original investment in the various fixed assets, whilst the undesignated amount is free for distribution. It is the policy of the Trustees to maintain the designated fund and have approximately £10,000 available as working capital.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS’ REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE DURSLEY LIONS CLUB CHARITY TRUST FUND
I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31 March 2021, which are set out on pages 3 to 9.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiners
As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts; you consider that the audit requirement of S144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) does not apply, and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts under S145 of the act, and to state, on the basis of procedures specified in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under S145(5)(b) of the Act, whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Bases of independent examiners’ 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 the seeking of 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 examiners’ statement
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 S130 of the Act; and
-
. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the 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.
