Margaret,

Not easy to provide simple answer.
I considered the very lightweight bracket near useless & I did not use it.
But my install was a one-piece only chimney re-circulating installation.
The screws that carry the weight of the extraction unit are necessary but these could be bought from a local hardware store.
Maybe more important is accurately drilling to accept the plastic "wallplugs" provided.
They need to be a fairly tight fit & you need to be careful that inserting the screws does not withdraw the plugs.

OTOH if you mean the small screws to secure the light bracket I guess you will need them. However I do not think this method is particularly satisfactory anyway.
I can't help more without seeing your situation.
BTW you will need a power outlet installed behind where the chimney will sit. That will make for an invisible power source once installed.
That's something else I thought was pretty poorly thought through by Robinhood.
Good luck.
