TRUSTEES' REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2024

The Trustees present their report and the audited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 October 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019).

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to the accounts and comply with the charity’s governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and 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 published in October 2019.

Since the charitable company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the Strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.

Trustees of the charity

The directors of the charitable company are its trustees for the purposes of charity law. The trustees who have served during the year and since the year end were as follows:

Mr S Cumiskey Mr J B Furse Mr P Miller Mr M Oliver Mrs M Pickering Mrs B J Smith Mr M Thompson Mrs J Ceney-Welsh

Objectives and activities

a. Policies and objectives

The Charity’s Objects are ‘To promote and advance the Christian Religion by the provision of facilities calculated directly to promote the effective working of all Christian Churches’. In the furtherance of these Objects we currently provide resource centres for people and bodies engaged in advancing the Christian Faith, and to establish, operate and maintain day or residential centres for holiday, recreational and conference facilities.

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.

In furtherance of these charitable objectives, the Centres are owned and operated for the public benefit in North Norfolk and North Wales. Guests come from different areas and church backgrounds and include general holiday guests participating in the programmes offered by the Centres, with Churches, various Christian Ministries and day school groups following their own programmes.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2024

Achievements and performance

a. Main achievements of the charitable company

The past year has continued to be full of challenges in the hospitality sector with sharp rises in employment, energy, and food costs being a few examples of how the financial landscape has changed dramatically since the initial impact of the pandemic and various geo-political issues which we all have felt the impact of. These circumstances have been and still are very hard on the hospitality business. We continue to adapt to these changing circumstances with ongoing reviews of all aspects of our business, this is now the ‘new norm’. The last trading year had several financial issues. At Beechwood Court it was a reduction in bookings which created a loss at that Centre. However, we have appointed a new Centre Manager who made an immediate effect in relation to new bookings and in doing so we were able to avert a bigger financial impact. It has been encouraging to see the bookings increase and this trend has continued on into the current trading year. Overall, our business plan could not be fully achieved.

Staff and overseas volunteers have again proved more difficult to get in place, but we have made some progress. The support of volunteers from the UK has been very useful, and we would like to mention a special word of thanks to all those concerned. In addition, the continued good use of employment agencies has also made a difference. Whilst extremely challenging, we managed to get through. Most importantly it was good that we were able to continue with our ministry through such times.

We would like to re-iterate our appreciation to the Centre management staff, volunteers and the people who led the holiday programmes. A special mention is being made regarding Jillian Orme, our Centre Manager at The Pleasaunce, who also has been supporting our Management Team at Beechwood Court. We continue to be very grateful for the exceptional level of commitment she has shown under the most demanding of situations

Andrew Gardner has continued in his job role as our Company Accountant and as our Management Consultant for the Centres where he is available to give additional support and advice to the Centre Management teams. He has continued to be involved in the volunteer recruitment process, using his many years of experience to help in this specific area.

Our marketing processes continue through various websites along with a printed format of our holiday brochures, which has been well received. We retained the services of a leading Christian Advertising/Publications company. Their ongoing remit was to further develop the above stated marketing development strategies aimed at attracting new guests and group bookings for the 2023-24 trading year. We also continued advertising with several different publications throughout the past year and are doing so for the 2024-25 business trading year.

As mentioned in previous reports there has been ongoing support by the Company’s Membership, support groups, the guests, and many others, who have been willing to help in financial, practical, and prayerful ways. The Trustees on behalf of the Charity would like to express our thanks and gratitude to all concerned.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2024

Financial review

a. Going concern

The trustees have prepared business plans for the period to October 2026 which include assumptions about occupancy, based on historic trends. The trustees have options to liquidate assets if the business plans do not achieve the required occupancy levels. It is for this reason that the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charitable company has adequate resources to continue in operation existence for the foreseeable future. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements.

b. Reserves policy

As set out below the target level of free reserves is £85,000. The free reserves of the charity (representing the unrestricted funds excluding the pension fund, which are not included in fixed assets) amount to £87,981 (2023: £120,680). The Trustees consider that these reserves are both adequate and necessary to continue the work of the Charity.

c. Principal funding

The Charity’s principal source of funding was income from guests, with some investment income and donations, as detailed in the Statement of Financial Activities. All income is utilised to finance the objects of the Charity, set out on page 3.

Income for the year was £547,942 (2023: £493,029). Expenditure for the year was £618,360 (2023: £587,917). This resulted in an overall deficit of £70,418 (2023: £94,888).

Total funds carried forward at 31 October 2023 are £469,941 (2023: £540,359) of which unrestricted funds are £463,059 (2023: £531,233) and restricted funds are £6,882 (2023: £9,126).

Additions to Fixtures and Fittings amounting to £6,276 are shown in note 15 to the accounts.

d. Financial framework

Listed below, are the key areas of our revised Business Plan:

Page 5

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOUR HOLIDAY CENTRES LIMITED

(A company limited by guarantee)

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2024

Further capital raising opportunities additional to the ‘medium term’ Business Plan:

We are encouraged by the bookings at The Pleasaunce, and the needed improvement at Beechwood Court. We are in very challenging financial circumstances but with the ‘Core/Satellite’ Business Plan in place we have managed to continue on with our aims to reduce our overheads thus giving us a better opportunity to sustain our recovery and consolidation processes.

A note of caution - although we recognise that this may not happen, if other external events were to adversely impact on our business, we would need to make provision for a major loss in our current trading year. Therefore, the relevant capital amount would potentially need to be raised through the selling of some of our fixed assets. Although very unlikely, if this situation were to arise it would require very careful consideration as to what would need to be sold. We feel as a Board of Trustees that it is important to bring this possible scenario to the attention of the members.

Structure, governance and management (continued)

d. Organisational structure and decision-making policies

The overall management of the charity is carried out by the Trustees, who work on a voluntary basis and meet regularly throughout the year. They are responsible for all policy matters, have specific executive functions and are assisted by other voluntary workers.

The day to day running of the Centres is carried out by the resident Centre Managers and support staff who report to the Trustees. The managers during the year under review are:

Beechwood Court – Mrs K Welbourne The Pleasaunce – Mrs J Orme

e. Pay policy for key management personnel

For key management positions pay and remuneration have had their levels set with several factors taken into consideration, for example we have benchmarked against similar organizations within the charity sector, their level of experience in the relevant job role and the professional qualifications that relate to it.

f. Related party relationships

There are a number of related party transactions which have been disclosed within note 27.

g. Financial risk management

The Trustees review all major risks which the Charity faces and undertake appropriate risk assessments. The Trustees are able to draw on their own experience and also make use of appropriate qualified consultants, listed below are examples regarding this subject. For Safeguarding issues, we have engaged the services of a company which specialises in this important issue, in addition we have a Safeguarding Officer and trainer along with a Trustee dedicated to this specific matter. We also review the company’s Safeguarding Policy annually. We have appointed a firm that specialises in Human Resources advising in such matters as legal advice and documentation support. With reference to Health & Safety matters we have appointed a company to give advice, complete site visits, reports and provide structured best practice support systems with accompanying policy document support. We complete an annual review with our insurance provider which covers provisions to protect the Company, they also help with surveys, where applicable, and make recommendations that help to reduce potential insurance risks. Regarding GDPR, we have resourced support material and have our policies in place with ongoing reviews. For each issue we usually appoint 2 trustees to work in each specific area in conjunction with the Centre Managers and the Council of Management. Financial risk is referred to in the financial framework on pages 5 and 6 of this report headed ‘Financial review’. As summarised above the Trustees confirm that they have established systems to mitigate significant risks, and that available reserves and insurance cover provide sufficient resources in the event of any adverse occurrences.

Independent examiner's report to the Trustees of Christian Endeavour Holiday Centres Limited ('the charitable company')

I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charitable company for the year ended 31 October 2024.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the Trustees of the charitable company (and 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 Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since the charitable company's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of ACCA, which is one of the listed bodies.

  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

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2024

1. General information

Christian Endeavour Holiday Centres Limited is a company limited by guarantee registered in England & Wales. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity. The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 1 of these financial statements. The nature of the charity's operations and principal activities are to promote and advance the Christian religion by the provision of residential holiday, recreational and conference facilities.

2. Accounting policies

2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined for FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities Statement of Recomments Practice applicable to the charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and the UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £1.

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.

2.2 Going concern

The trustees have prepared business plans for the period to October 2026 which include assumptions about occupancy, based on historic trends. The trustees have options to liquidate assets if the business plans do not achieve the required occupancy levels. It is for this reason that the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charitable company has adequate resources to continue in operation existence for the foreseeable future. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements.

2.3 Income

All income is recognised once the charitable company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.

Other income is recognised in the period in which it is receivable and to the extent the goods have been provided or on completion of the service.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2024

2. Accounting policies (continued)

2.4 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the charitable company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

2.5 Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charitable company; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.

2.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets costing £500 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.

Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.

Depreciation is provided on the following bases:

2.7 Stocks

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2024

2. Accounting policies (continued)

2.8 Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

2.9 Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

2.10 Liabilities

Liabilities and provisions are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the charitable company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of financial activities as a finance cost.

2.11 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the charitable company has an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event which it is probable will result in the transfer of economic benefits and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised within interest payable and similar charges.

2.12 Financial instruments

2. Accounting policies (continued)

2.13 Pensions

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the charitable company to the fund in respect of the year.

The charitable company operates a defined benefit pension scheme for the benefit of its employees. A liability for the charity's obligations under the plan is recognised net of plan assets. The net defined benefit liability is recognised as the cost of the defined benefit plan during the period. Pension plan assets are measured at fair value and the defined benefit obligation is measured on an actuarial basis using the projected unit method. Actuarial valuations are obtained at least triennially and are updated on the balance sheet date.

2.14 Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charitable company and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the charitable company for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.

2.15 Taxation

The charitable company is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charitable company is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

2.16 Employee benefits

The cost of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense.

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's services are received.

3. Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgment

Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:

The charitable company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The following judgements (apart from those involving estimates) have been made in the process of applying the above accounting policies that have had the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements:

Support costs:

Some costs incurred by the charity such as printing, postage and stationery are shared between activities. The charity's policy is to allocate these costs on the basis of assessed consumption.

Pension creditor - under Charities SORP FRS 102, the present value of the future deficit contributions is recognised. The calculation of the present value of the future deficit contributions is subject to an assumption of a discount rate. The discount rate used is determined by reference to market yields at the reporting date on high quality corporate bonds.

26. Pension commitments

The company participates in the TPT Retirement Solutions scheme, a multi-employer scheme which provides benefits to some 638 non-associated participating employers. The scheme is a defined benefit scheme in the UK. It is not possible for the company to obtain sufficient information to enable it to account for the scheme as a defined benefit scheme. Therefore it accounts for the scheme as a defined contribution scheme.

The scheme is subject to the funding legislation outlined in the Pensions Act 2004 which came into force on 30 December 2005. This, together with documents issued by the Pensions Regulator and Technical Actuarial Standards issued by the Financial Reporting Council, set out the framework for funding defined benefit occupational pension schemes in the UK.

The scheme is classified as a 'last-man standing arrangement'. Therefore the company is potentially liable for other participating employers' obligations if those employers are unable to meet their share of the scheme deficit following withdrawal from the scheme. Participating employers are legally required to meet their share of the scheme deficit on an annuity purchase basis on withdrawal from the scheme.

A full actuarial valuation for the scheme was carried out at 30 September 2020. This valuation showed assets of £800.3m, liabilities of £831.9m and a deficit of £31.6m. To eliminate this funding shortfall, the Trustee has asked the participating employers to pay additional contributions to the scheme as follows:

Deficit contributions

________________ From 1 April 2022 to 31 January 2025: £3,312,000 per annum (payable monthly)

Unless a concession has been agreed with the Trustee the term to 31 January 2025 applies.

Note that the scheme’s previous valuation was carried out with an effective date of 30 September 2017. This valuation showed assets of £794.9m, liabilities of £926.4m and a deficit of £131.5m. To eliminate this funding shortfall, the Trustee has asked the participating employers to pay additional contributions to the scheme as follows:

Deficit contributions

________________ From 1 April 2019 to 30 September 2025: £11,243,000 per annum (payable monthly and increasing by 3%

(payable monthly and increasing by 3% each on 1st April)

________________ The recovery plan contributions are allocated to each participating employer in line with their estimated share of the Series 1 and Series 2 scheme liabilities.

Where the scheme is in deficit and where the company has agreed to a deficit funding arrangement the company recognises a liability for this obligation. The amount recognised is the net present value of the deficit reduction contributions payable under the agreement that relates to the deficit. The present value is calculated using the discount rate detailed in these disclosures. The unwinding of the discount rate is recognised as a finance cost.
