## **Accountants' report to the trustees of COOKSTOWN MS, HELP AND SUPPORT**
You consider that the company is exempt from an audit for the year ended 31 October 2020, under section 65(2) of the Charties Act (Northern Ireland) 2008 and that an independent examination is needed. You have acknowledged, on the balance sheet, your responsibilities for complying with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 with respect to accounting records and the preparation of accounts. These responsibilities include preparing accounts that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company at the end of the financial year and of its surplus or deficit for the financial year.
In accordance with your instructions, we have examined the accounts in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland and is in accordance with regulation 11 of the Charites Accounts which comprise the Income and Expenditure Account, the Balance Sheet and the related notes from the examination and reviewing the accounting records of 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' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the next statement.
In connection with our examination, no matter has come to our attention which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 63 of the Charites Act 2008 and section 44(1)(a) of the 2006 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts regulations and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charites Act 2008 and section 44(1)(b) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 8 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations have not been met or to which, in our opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
