| Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of THE BRITISH MOROCCAN SOCIETY
| I report on the accounts of THE BRITISH MOROCCAN SOCIETY (the “charitable company”) for the year ended 30 September 2025.
| Responsibilities and basis of report
| As trustees of the charitable 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 charitable 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 the charitable company’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act2011 (“the 2011 Act”) and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
| Independent examiner's statement
| I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
| 1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charitable 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.

| 2 | Accounting policies
|  | Basis of preparing the financial statements
|  | These financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) ‘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)’, the Financial Reporting Standard 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historic cost convention.
|  | Going concern
|  | In preparing these financial statements, the trustees have assessed whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that cast significant doubt upon the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In making this assessment, the trustees take into account all available information about the future which is at least 12 months from the date that the financial statements are authorised for issue.
|  | The trustees consider that the charitable company has adequate resources to continue in business for the foreseeable future and that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
|  | Income
|  | All income is recognised in the Statement of financial activities once the charitable company has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and and the amount can be measured reliably.
|  | Expenditure
|  | Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charitable company to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
