## **Review of progress and achievements during 2021–22**
The centre was open for business as usual for the period April 2021 through to April 2022. Due to the remaining impact of COVID-19 pandemic and the associated UK Government restrictions, bookings were initially less than in previous years.
In September 2021, work recommenced for a W/C and laundry facility. This was completed in April 2022.
The lawns, footpaths, meadows and woodlands of the estate have been maintained throughout this period.

## **Reserves policy and risk management**
The Trustees regularly examine the requirements for income reserves adequate to ensure the Charity will continue to meet the future needs of the Charity.
Red Hill is fortunate in owning its buildings and the land immediately adjacent to them. The money for this was given by donation at the beginning of the project.

**REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (Continued)**
## **Public benefit**
In setting the Trust's objectives and planning its activities, the Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit.
## **Trustees’ responsibilities**
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland".
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales, the Charities Act 2011, Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed.
They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## **REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER TO THE TRUSTEES OF RED HILL CHRISTIAN CENTRE**
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Red Hill Christian Centre (‘the Trust’) for the year ended 31st March 2022.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity trustees of the Trust, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 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 Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
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.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH 2022**
## **Red Hill Christian Centre**
**1. Accounting policies**
## **Basis of preparing the financial statements**
The financial statements of the charity, 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 2015)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with the exception of the revaluation of certain fixed assets.
## **Income**
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received 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 charity 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.
## **Fund accounting**
The charity’s general funds consist of funds which the charity may use for its purposes at its discretion. Restricted funds account for situations where a donor requires that a donation must be spent on a particular purpose or where funds have been raised for a specific purpose.
## **Voluntary income**
Voluntary income and donations are accounted for as received by the charity. The income from fundraising ventures is shown gross, with the associated costs included in fundraising costs. No permanent endowments have been received in the period. Where donations are received under the provisions of the Gift Aid Scheme or ongoing covenant arrangements, credit is given in the current financial period for tax refunds arising which will be claimed in respect of donations received in the period.
## **Investment income**
Interest income from bank and building society deposits is credited to the income statement when it is received.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**
## **Red Hill Christian Centre**
**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH 2022**
## **1. Accounting policies (continued)**
## **Taxation**
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
Value added tax is not recoverable by the charity and as such is included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities.
## **Support costs**
Expenditure on management and administration of the charity shown as support costs includes all expenditure not directly related to the charitable activities or fund-raising ventures.
## **Fundraising and publicity expenses**
Fundraising and publicity expenses comprise costs incurred in informing people of the work of the charity and the needs it meets, but without making a direct appeal for contributions.
## **Fixed assets**
All tangible assets for use by the charity are initially recorded at cost. Freehold land and buildings are subject to revaluation, as set out in note 10.
Freehold land is not depreciated. Freehold buildings are not depreciated as in the opinion of the Trustees, their residual value will not be significantly different from their carrying value in the accounts, and therefore such depreciation would be immaterial.
Depreciation is provided to write off the cost of other assets less their estimated residual values, over their expected useful lives as follows:
Plant and machinery, furniture etc.: 15% reducing balance Office equipment: 33% reducing balance
