These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and the

consider that the audit requirement of Section 65131 of the Charities Act INII 2008 (the Actl does
not applv.
It is my responsibility to state whether particular matters have come to our attention as a result of
examining the financial statements.
Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given by the Charity
Com missioners. 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 members
concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that
would be required in an audit, and consequently we do not expres5 an audit opinion on the
Account5.
Independent Examinerfs Statement
In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention:_
lil Which gives me re350nable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements:
to keep accounting record5 in accordance with Section 63 of the Charities Act INI)
2008.
to prepare Accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply
with the accountinE requirements of the Act have not been met.. or
lill to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding
of the Accounts to be reached.
