FUTURE PLANS
Plans for future periods:
To develop a Community Hub that can offer a focus for sporting excellence for the current local sports clubs; establish an Outdoor Hub to exploit the Hub’s close proximity to the Ochil Hills and River Devon; and as a Tourist Hub, to act as the Wee County’s focal point for tourism. While we accept that the project falls within the devolved matters of tourism, sport and heritage, it is felt that given proper investment the Hub would offer a significant contribution to the internationalisation of the County, through making the Hub a tourist destination in its own right, this would help economically transform the Hillfoots villages in particular, but also be of wider benefit to the whole County.

Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Auditors
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) 2005 Act and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006.

Basis of Independent Examiner’s statement
My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. 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 any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and, consequently, | do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.
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 the requirements: «+ to keep accounting records in accordance with section 44(1) (a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations, and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 9 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations
have not been met, or
