CUPAR FOOD BANK- SCOTTISH CHARITY NO.: SC046892
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CUPAR FOODBANK
R THE. YEAR E
I r¢p)rt on the accounts of thc charily for the year endd 31 March 2025 consisting of the Stat¢ment
of Receipts and Payments, Slatemenl of Balances and the related not¢s.
Respeetive Responsibilities of the Trnstees and the Examiner
The Charity's Trustses are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the ternis
of Charities and Trustees Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scodand)
Regulations 2006. The charity Trnstces consid¢r that the audit requirancnt of Regulation l O(1 ){d) of
the Accounts Regulations do not apply. It is my responsibility to ¢xan]ine the Accounts as required
under Section 44(1)(c) of th¢ Act and to stat¢ whether particular matters have come to my attcntion.
Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement
My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation I l of the 21M)6 Accounts 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 concerning such marters. The
procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidencc would be required in an audit, and
conscquently, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the Accounts.
ImdependeDt Examlner's Slatement
In the course of my enmination. no matter has come to my attention."
l. Which gives me reasonable cause to believer that, in any material respect, the ffquirements:
to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 44IIXa) of the 2(M)5 Act and
Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations, and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting reCo￿S and comply with Rcgulation
9 of the 2(M)6 Accounts Regulations.
have not been me( or
2. to whidL in my opinion. attention should be drawn ill order to enable a prO￿r understanding
of the accounts to be reached.

Structure, governance and management
Type of governing document
Cupar Foodbank operates under a formal Constitution, which serves as
its principal governing document. This framework outlines the
organisation's purpose, governance structure. and operational
procedures, ensuring transparency, accountability. and adherence to
charitable principles.
Trustee recruitment and appointment
We actively seek to appoint trustees from the local community who
demonstrate a genuine interest in addressing food poverty and
supporting the mission of the foodbank. Individuals who wish to be
considered for a trustee role are invited lo complete an application fomi.
As part of the recruitment process, applicants are welcomed to visit the
foodbank, where they will have the opportunity to meet with the
manager, volunteer co)rdinator, and members of the volunteer team.
This engagement provides valuable insight inlo the daily operations and
ethos of the organisation.
Prospective trustees are then invited to attend a trustee meeting as
observers. Following this, both the applicant and the board may reflect
and decide whelher to move forward with a formal nomination to the
trustee board.

dislribution of food and by facilitating access to welfare services within the
community-striving ultimately to enhance the overall quality of lrfe for
beneficiaries.
Summary of the main activities
in relation to these objects

impact.

essential service possible.

funds are in place to meet these commitments
