FRIENDS OF THE MOTHER OF DIVINE MERCY (REGISTERED NUMBER: 06885492)

Report of the Trustees

for the Year Ended 30 April 2025

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 April 2025. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

Objectives and activities

Objectives and aims

The mission of the Friends of the Mother of Divine Mercy is to advance the Marian and Eucharistic aspects of the Catholic faith for the benefit of the public mainly, but not exclusively, through the holding of prayer meetings, lectures and other forms of liturgical worship, producing and / or distributing literature on the Marian and Eucharistic aspects of the Catholic faith to enlighten others about the Catholic religion.

Achievements and performance

Charitable activities

A wide variety of activities have been undertaken during the year in relation to the charities objects, including prayer meetings, events and conferences.

Olive Dawson travelled around Ireland and England last year to give talks and to promote Our Lady's Book of Message of Mercy to The World.

Financial review

Reserves policy

The Trustees have considered the level of unrestricted funds that it is appropriate for the charity to maintain over the coming twelve months. It is not considered necessary to maintain a significant level of reserves, since the charitable company has no operating lease or loan commitments. The current level of reserves is therefore considered satisfactory.

Structure, governance and management

Governing document

Friends of the Mother of Divine Mercy is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association and was incorporated as a company limited by guarantee without share capital on 23rd April 2009. It was registered as a charity on 3rd December 2009.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of

Friends of The Mother of Divine Mercy

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Friends of The Mother of Divine Mercy ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 30 April 2025.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of

Friends of The Mother of Divine Mercy

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

1. | accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

2. | the accounts do not accord with those records; or

3. | the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

4. | the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
