## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Aims and Purpose** 

The principal aim of the charity is the advancement of the Christian Faith, its values and ideals in such ways and in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the Trustees from time to time may think fit. We also aim to relieve sickness and financial hardship, and to promote strong families and relationships. 

We achieve these objectives by the provision of teachings, prayer, counselling and training provided mainly during our Sunday and Wednesday services. 

The King’s House also remains committed to providing spiritual, emotional, pastoral, social, educational and practical support for its beneficiaries and anyone who needs our support – especially within the North London area. We also engage and organise local Community based initiatives and we collaborate with other local charities and voluntary organisations. These initiatives are open to the public, as well as to our regular members. 

## **Leadership** 

The trustees are responsible for setting yearly budgets and expenses. They are aware of their duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes an unincorporated charity. The Pastors and Core Leadership are responsible for providing Spiritual Leadership to the King’s House members. They work closely with the trustees for the overall good of the Trust. 

Every year, the Core Leaders attend Pastors Meetings and Leadership training and seminars where time is spent developing a corporate vision, sharing effective relational skills and best practice, and doing leadership appraisal. The Trustees usually meet with the Lead Pastors twice during the year. The King’s House Leadership meets regularly throughout the year. 

## **Staff and Volunteers** 

The King’s House Trust currently has two full time Pastors, two part-time Pastors, and one part-time building maintenance / admin staff. We had a part-time Office Administrator for part of the year, but she left in August 2020 to start full time studies. In addition, we have part-time volunteers and helpers who help with various duties and some of them get paid volunteer costs or travel expenses. We have five elders, and over 20 Team Leaders/Coordinators, who also work on voluntary basis, helping to provide pastoral care, advice, and leadership support for our growing committed membership of 170+ adults and 70+ youths and children. (This number does not include scores of people from the community who attend or visit us from time to time; in order to benefit from our regular inspirational Worship Services, Seminars, Workshops, Movies, Drama presentations and other Community events). 

~ 4 ~ 



## **Worship Services and Church life** 

We offer a range of Worship Services each week to cater for the needs of our growing multi-cultural congregation of about 240 Adults and children – from about 20 different countries. All of these services are open to anyone to attend. This year, due to the pandemic, we began streaming our Services Online on social media. This way we have been able to reach many more people in our local community and from around the world. Our Sunday Family Service caters for all ages, with Sunday School & Youth Classes for Children and Youth, and a Crèche for Babies and Toddlers. We also have weekly prayer meetings and weekly Wednesday Worship services for the whole congregation. These services were mostly done Online and via Zoom. 

In addition, we held other virtual meetings occasionally, such as small group meetings, Youth Club, Men’s meetings, Women’s meetings, and Couples Event. These meetings were also open to visitors, neighbours, friends and the wider Community. 

## **The Crown Complex (The Church Building)** 

The Charity shares its facilities with another Church Charity called DIADEM. Rental funds received is recorded as income, but is paid to the Council for the lease of the building. We also share our small hall, classrooms and other rooms with other individuals for an agreed contribution and all money received goes towards paying for the lease. 

We continue to make sure that the building is in good repair and adequately insured. We have disability access to the building and our Health and Safety policies and Fire Safety procedures are in place, with serviced ADT intruder alarms and smoke detectors. 

## **Bookshop** 

There is a small bookshop and resources stand that operates during our services and events, for the benefit of members and visitors. It provides and sells Bibles, books, DVD’s, CD’s and other Christian resources at discounted prices. The sales from all these items also formed a small portion of our income this year. The bookshop was not in operation for most of the year, due to the Pandemic restrictions. 

## **ACTIVITIES OF THE TRUST THIS YEAR:** 

## **Financial Sources** 

The activities of the charity are financed by regular contributions in the form of donations, gifts, offerings and ‘tithes’ from our members, beneficiaries, and individual supporters. This year, we received most of our donations from Online and Paypal giving. 

Other sources of income include Gift Aid from HMRC and Crown Complex Income. 

~ 5 ~ 



Again this year, in spite of the Pandemic lockdown restrictions, as a result of the generosity of our regular financial contributors, we’ve been able to provide Pastoral Support for our growing members, hold weekly Worship Services on Sunday’s and Wednesday – both virtually and in-person, engage in Community Outreach, support the vulnerable, maintain our Building, and accomplish so much more. 

## **Outreach, Welfare and Missions** 

We invested approximately £ 14,350 on Outreach initiatives, Missions, Ministry, Ministers and Welfare Support for serving and reaching out to people through various outreach initiatives and Care ministries both within and outside the Church. This included sponsoring 6 children monthly through ‘Compassion’, supporting various ministers and ministries, helping individuals in need; and engaging in overseas outreach missions. We continue to support the Nursery School in Ghana (Bernard and King’s Academy) that we helped to build in 2011 with the generous donations and contributions from our members. 

The King’s House runs regular Community Outreach programs, seminars and from time to time distributes free motivational, ethical and moral literature dealing with Christian values; and offer free practical, emotional & spiritual advice and support where needed. Occasionally, token financial help (from our Welfare Fund) may be given where the need is considered genuine enough. We are also privileged to have been able to give welfare support and gifts to some members of the trust, and also support a number of Missions, Ministries and Ministers the UK. 

## **Events** 

## **Due to the Pandemic and restrictions on large gatherings, we were only able to hold a few of our yearly events, and some of them were done virtually.** 

**Easter Events:** On Easter Sunday, we had an Online Worship Service to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. 

**GLS:** A few of our leaders attended a 1 Day Virtual leadership event. 

**Christmas Food Outreach:** At Christmas, as a result of the generous donations from our members, we were able to give out 100 Food Hampers and 50 Turkey Hampers to struggling families in our Community. We also gave some hampers to various charities to distribute to their users. 

## **Other Activities:** 

- Married couples had a **Valentine’s Dinner event** , with Games, Dance, Food, Fun and lot’s of surprises. 

- The **men and the women** each had virtual meetings during the year. 

- **Mothering Sunday** was celebrated virtually, but Fathers day was celebrated inperson. Every father in attendance received a token gift.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of THE KING'S HOUSE TRUST 

I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2020 set out on pages three to seven. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under Section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act)) and that an independent examination is required. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- Examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Act 

- To follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under Section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act); and 

- To state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of the independent examiner's report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view ' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statements below. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements 

   - to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 130 of the 2011 Act; and 

   - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act 

have not been met; or 

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