Independent Examiner's Report
For the year ended 31 March 2026
Independent Examlner's Report to the Trustees of Clochan Communty Centre SCIO
I report on the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2026, which are
set out on pages 5 to 7.
Respective responstbilities of Trustees and Examlner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordan￿ with the
tems of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 ("the 2005 Act.) and the
Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) ("the 2006 Regulations"). The
charity's trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1)(d) of the 2006
Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under
section (44>(1)(c) of the 2005 Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my
attention.
Basis of Independent Examiner's Ststement
My examination is carried out in accordan￿ with Regulation 11 of the 2006 Regulations. 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 seeks explanations from the trustees conceming any such
matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the eviden￿ that would be required in an
audit and, consequently, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent Examinor's Ststement
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 seGtion 44(1)(a) of the 2005 Act and
Regulation 4 of the 2006 Regulations, and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 9
of the 2006 Regulations 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.
