INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES
OF MID ULSTER VOLUNTEER CENTRE
I have examined the financial stalements of the Trust for the year ended 31 March 2023, which comprise the
Stalement of Financial Aclivities (incorporating an Income and Expenditure Account), the Balance Sheet, the
Accounting Policies and the related notes. These financial statements have been prepared under the accounting
policies set out therein. The financial statements were not required to be audiled in accordance with Part 16 of the
Companies Act 2006.
This report is made solely to the charitable company trustees, as a body. in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of
the Companies Act 2006. Our work has been undertaken so that we might compile the financial stalemenls that we
have been engaged to compile, report to the charitable company's Board of Trustees Ihat we have done so, and
state those matters that we have agreed to state lo them in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent
pemiilted by law, we do nol accept or assume responsibility lo anyone other than the charitable company and the
charitable company's Board of Trustees, as a body. for our work. or for Ihis report.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees, Responsibilities, the trustees. who are also the directors of the
charitable cofflpariy. are responsible for the preparalion of the Trustees, Annual report and Ihe financial statements in
accordance with applicable law and Accounting Standards (UK and Ireland). The charitable company trustees
consider an audit is not required for this year under Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 but that an
independent examination is required under that Act.
It is my responsibility to=
examine the financial statements under Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and section 65 of the
Charities Acl thereunder.,
follow the Pfocedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission for Northem Ireland
under seclion 65{9)(b) of the Charites Act',- and
stale the facts if il has come to my attention in the course of my examination work that any:
(i) material expenditure or action appears not to be in accordance wilh the charitable company's trusts.,
{ii) information or explanation l am entitled to under the Regulations has not been afforded to me,.
{iii) information contained in the financial statements is materially inconsistent with Ihe Trustees, Annual report for
Ihe year.
Basis of independent examinerfs report
My examination work was undertaken in accordance with the general directions gFven by Ihe. Charity Commission for
Northern Ireland under section 65(9}(b) of the Charities Act. Such an examination includes a review of the accounting
records kept by the charitable company and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It
also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financ5al stalements and seeking explanations
from yourselves as the charitable company trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not
provide all Ihe eviden￿ that would be required in an audtt and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on Ihe
view given by the financial statements.
Independent examtner's statement
In connection with my examinalion work, no matter has come to my attention:
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respecl Ihe requiremenls to keep proper
accounting records and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounling records and are in accordance with
the methods and princtples set out in the Charities SORP ,and which comply with the requiremenls ofsection 396
of the Companies Act 2006 other than the requirement to give a Irue and fair view have not been met., or
to which, in my opinion. attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial
stalemenls to be reached.
