The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in
accordan￿ with the terms of the Charities and Tnjstee Investment {Scolland) Act 2005 and
the Charities A(xounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. The Charity trustees consider th81 the

It is my responsibility to examine the financial statements as required under section 44{1) {cl
of the Act and lo state whether particular matters have come lo my attention.
Basls of independent examiner's statement
My examination is carried OL+t in accordan￿ with Regulalion 11 of th8 Charities Accounts
(Scolland) Regulations 2006. An Examination includes a review of the accounting records
kept by the charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those
records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial
statements, artd seeks explanations from the 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 audil opinion on the view given by the financial

Independent examiner's statement
In the course of my examination. no matter has come to my attention:
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect..
accounting records have not been kept in accordan￿ with Section 44{1) lal of the
Charities and Trustee Investment {Scotlandl Act 2005 and Regulation 4 of the
Charities Accounts (Scollalld) Regulations 2006
the financial statements do mt accord with those records
the financial statements do not comply with the requirements of Regulalion 9 of The
Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006

understanding of the accounts lo be reached.
