Our main activity this year was to organise and successfully host our second large fundraiser event. Our Hoedown fundraiser was planned for 23 November 2024 at Harelaw Farm, however due to adverse weather conditions the event was posted at the request of the venue and bus company. The rearranged event was held on the 22 March 2025. Most of the cash takings during the event was achieved by our raffle, with prizes that were generously donated by local businesses and supporters of the charity. Overall, the charity raised £2,290 from the event.

We have continued to develop the charities information pages.

Report of the Independent Examiner to the Trustees of Alisdair Cameron Trust

| have examined the financial statements of Alisdair Cameron Trust for the year ended 05 April 2025 pages Seven to Eleven.

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. The charity trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1) (d) of the Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under section 44(1) (c) of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Alisdair Cameron Trust is a registered Scottish Charity; 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 organisation 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.

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

to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
