GOVERNING DOCUMENTS
The name of the charity is Christian Science Society, Sevenoaks.
Christian Science Society, Sevenoaks is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes an unincorporated charity.
The Trustees have given consideration to the question of the church’s charitable status, with special regard to the benefit to the community beyond its own membership and have had regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit.
ELECTION OF TRUSTEES/APPOINTMENTOTHER OFFICERS
Election of Trustees and Church Officers for 2020 took place at an Elections Meeting in December 2019. Four trustees (Board members), a President, a rota of Readers, a Treasurer, a Librarian, and a Sunday School Superintendent were elected and appointed in accordance with Article 1, Sections 1-9 of the Society’s Bylaws. (The office of Clerk has not been filled for a number of years now and the clerk’s duties continue to be shared out with willing members of the Society.)
Custodian Trustees remain in office until a trustee resigns or dies.
ORGANISATION
The organisation of the church is outlined in the Constitution and By-laws. The Trustee Board oversees the church activities with the knowledge and approval of the members. The members are empowered to elect up to four Custodial Trustees who hold the property of the church in trust. These Custodial Trustees act on the instructions of the Trustees, who, in turn, act at the direction of the members.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The Trustees review annually the major risks to which the charity is exposed and ensure that appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
The object of this church is to promote to the public the religion Christian Science based on the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, whose purpose is to “reinstate primitive Christianity and its lost element of healing” as a demonstrable science.
During the year, the Society held weekly Sunday Church Services and a monthly Testimony Meeting on the fourth Wednesday of each month in their auditorium at Caxton House until Government lockdown measures were introduced in late March when services and meetings were held for the rest of the year via Zoom. The Society also provided a Sunday School for children and teenagers which also moved to Zoom in late March. A creche for the very young was available until late March. These Church Services, Testimony Meetings, and Sunday School classes are open to all members of the public.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
The above services and Testimony Meetings are advertised in the Christian Science Journal, the official organ of The First Church of Christ, Scientist in Boston, Massachusetts of which the Sevenoaks Christian Science Society is a branch, on the Society’s website cs7oaks.org , and in the local monthly Advertiser.
The Society sponsored a public Zoom lecture on Christian Science for the local community in May 2020 at a cost of £1,600 inclusive of advertising. The Society made a donation of £1,200 to the nearest Christian Science Care Home to assist in the provision of the cost of transportation of residents and patients to attend church services and testimony meetings; £600 was donated to Easter Camp for those interested in Christian Science.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
INVESTMENT POLICY
The trustees’ overall objectives are still to create sufficient income and capital growth rebuilding the value of the portfolio to enable the charity to carry out its purposes consistently year by year with due and proper consideration for future needs and the maintenance of, and if possible, enhancement of the value of invested funds while they are retained, by obtaining a balanced return between income and capital with low to medium risk through discretionary management. There are no unquoted securities.
The trustees reserve the right to exclude companies that carry out activities contrary to their aims or from holding particular investments in breweries, distilleries, tobacco companies, drug companies, and the gambling industry.
Trustees expect the fund manager to have considered the suitability of investments of the same kind as any particular proposed to be made or retained.
The objectives are to be achieved by investing prudently in a broad range of fixed interest securities and equities which are quoted on a Recognised Investment Exchange and unit trusts and OEICs (open ended investment companies) which are authorised under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.
RESERVES POLICY
At the beginning of 2020 the Society held investments valued at £206,783. The policy of the Society has been, and remains, to invest any surplus income derived by office rents. The Reserves Policy for 2020 is deemed to be adequate now that in addtion we we receive annual rental income in the region of £30,000.
At the end of 2020 the charity’s reserves inclusive of the value of the property amounted to £1,620,392 of which £622 was represented by restricted funds.
DIVIDENDS AND INTEREST
Dividends and interest are re-invested.

TRUSTEES RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statement in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales 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 year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 2019 (FRS102);
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charities (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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) Basis of accounting
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
-
b) Income recognition
-
Items of income are recognised and included in the accounts when all of the following criteria are met:
-
The charity has entitlement to the funds;
-
any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met or are fully within the control of the charity.
-
there is sufficient certainty that receipt of the income is considered probable; and
-
the amount can be measured reliably.
c) Expenditure recognition Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
-
Costs of raising funds comprise the costs associated with the management of the Charity’s investments (all such costs relate to unrestricted funds).
-
Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs undertaken to further the purposes of the Charity and their associated support costs.
d) Fund Accounting
Unrestricted general funds are freely available for use in furtherance of the objects of the charity and which have not been designated for particular purposes.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds set aside by the trustees for particular purposes.
Restricted funds are funds which can only be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by the donor or which have been raised for a particular purpose.
e) Allocation of support costs Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the Charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs which support the Charity’s activities.
-
f) Tangible fixed assets
-
Tangible fixed assets costing more than £500 are capitalised at cost.
Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, which is not depreciated, at the following rates:
Buildings 50 years straight line Computer equipment 4 years straight line
The trustees estimate that approximately 60% of the cost of the property relates to land.
