Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 October 2025

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 October 2025. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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 2019).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Charitable objectives

The charity's objects are:

The Statement of Conviction affirms human sexuality, sexual orientation, and gender identity in all their richness as gifts of God. It expresses the charity's hope for the full acceptance, welcome, affirmation, and equality of people in all their diversity within the Christian Church.

Strategic approach

During the year the charity continued to work within its 2023-2026 strategy, whose central themes were safety and joy. Its ambition was to enable LGBTQ+ Christians not merely to survive, but to thrive. The charity combined pastoral support, worship and community, public education, resources, campaigning and advocacy, and partnerships within and beyond the United Kingdom. It sought to bring a distinctively LGBTQ+ Christian voice to churches, public debate, and ecumenical networks, while providing spaces in which individuals could integrate their faith, sexuality, and gender identity.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Achievements and performance

Overview

Across the 2019 - 2025 period, the charity's work strengthened its reputation as an ecumenical, collaborative, and internationally connected LGBTQ+ Christian organisation. In the reporting year it continued to deliver activity under the themes below, while also confronting a material deterioration in its financial sustainability.

Pastoral support, worship, and community

Education, resources, and leadership

Advocacy and public witness

Partnerships, ecumenical, and international work

Communications and organisational development

The charity improved its customer relationship management, newsletter format, social media planning, and use of digital tools. This supported more systematic engagement with members, supporters, and beneficiaries. Since 2020 the charity secured £109,750 in grant funding, enabling retreats, leadership programmes, research, international symposiums, strategic development, and access to subsidised provision. Governance policies and systems were also strengthened, and trustees, patrons, staff, and volunteers contributed significantly to delivery.

Performance challenges and learning

The achievements described above were delivered against an increasingly difficult financial and organisational background. Membership subscriptions fell, grant income reduced substantially compared with the previous year, and the charity's cost base, particularly staffing costs, could not be supported by recurring unrestricted income. While funded projects extended the charity's reach and impact, restricted funds could not generally be used to meet all core costs. The trustees' subsequent review concluded that the breadth of the charity's ambition had become disproportionate to its sustainable income and operational capacity. This assessment has been central to decisions about its future.

Report of the Trustees

for the Year Ended 31 October 2025

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Public benefit

The trustees confirm that, in planning and reviewing the charity's activities, they had due regard to the requirements of section 17 of Charities Act 2011 relating public benefit published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales. The charity furthered its purposes for public benefit by working to reduce discrimination and its harmful effects, including effects on mental health; strengthen tolerant, diverse, and inclusive communities; support LGBTQ+ people in integrating religious practice and spirituality with their identity; educate churches and the wider public; and challenge the assumption that Christian faith communities must reject LGBTQ+ people.

Its services and resources were available beyond the formal membership, and its advocacy, educational work, partnerships, and public communications were intended to benefit LGBTQ+ Christians, their families and allies, churches and church leaders, educators, and the wider public.

STRATEGIC REPORT

Financial review

Results for the year

Total income for the year was £57,797 (2024: £121,339), comprising £24,240 from donations, legacies, and grants, £31,106 from charitable activities, and £2,451 of investment income. Income from charitable activities included membership subscriptions of £25,608, sales and fees of £1,028, and educational archive royalties of £4,470. The reduction in total income principally reflected the absence of the £50,000 Sir Halley Stewart Trust grant recognised in 2024, lower grant income more generally, declining membership income, and lower archive royalties.

Total expenditure was £116,858 (2024: £125,296), of which staff costs were £81,268 (2024: £75,091). The charity therefore recorded net expenditure of £59,061 (2024: £3,957). At 31 October 2025, total funds were £118,575 (2024: £177,636), comprising unrestricted funds of £81,724 (2024: £133,395) and restricted funds of £36,851 (2024: £44,241). Cash at bank was £101,356 (2024: £146,754), current assets were £121,945 (2024: 182,588), and creditors falling due within one year were £3,370 (2024: £5,376).

The reported deficit demonstrates that the operating model during the year was not sustainable from recurring income. Membership subscriptions, donations, grants, fees, royalties, and interest all supported the charity's purposes, but the charity remained dependent upon reserves to fund its activities.

Restricted funds

At the year end, £36,851 was restricted and unavailable for the charity's general purposes. This comprised £36,851 remaining from the Sir Halley Stewart Trust grant. The Open Theology Trust fund was fully applied during the year, including a transfer of £3,722 from unrestricted funds where funds were diverted against expenditure in excess of restricted income, as reflected in the financial statements. Restricted balances will be applied in accordance with the relevant donor restrictions or dealt with only with appropriate donor and professional advice as part of an orderly wind-down.

Reserves policy

During the reporting year the trustees reviewed the reserves policy in light of the charity's deteriorating financial outlook. The revised policy identified a minimum requirement of £50,000, representing approximately three months' continuity or restructuring costs and three months' dissolution costs. This replaced the earlier formulation of holding six months' basic operating costs and was intended to preserve sufficient resources for an orderly restructuring or closure and to protect staff, creditors, members, and beneficiaries.

At 31 October 2025, unrestricted funds were £81,724. This was £31,724 above the £50,000 minimum. The margin was nevertheless limited when set against the annual deficit and foreseeable restructuring and wind-down obligations. The trustees therefore imposed tighter expenditure control and continued regular cashflow and reserves monitoring.

STRATEGIC REPORT Financial review

Principal risks and their management

Going concern and basis of preparation

After the year end, and before approval of this report, the trustees concluded that the charity had reached the end of its useful life as an independent organisation and resolved to recommend to the members that it be dissolved. The continuation of the charitable company is therefore dependent upon the members' decision and, in practical terms, the trustees do not plan to continue the existing operating model for the foreseeable future. The trustees consider that the charity has sufficient assets to meet its known obligations and to undertake an orderly solvent wind-down. The basis on which the financial statements are prepared, and the related accounting policy and subsequent-events disclosures, should be agreed with the independent examiner so that they are consistent with this conclusion.

STRATEGIC REPORT

Events after the reporting period and plans for the future Staffing and trustee changes

Following the year end, the Chief Executive, the Revd Luke Dowding, left the charity after the trustees determined that the existing staffing structure was no longer financially sustainable. Katie Marsh, Head of Operations, subsequently also left the charity. Fr. Lee Taylor, Chaplain to Rhythm, also left the charity following his translation from East London to Berwick upon Tweed. The trustees record their gratitude for their leadership, commitment, and contribution to the charity and its beneficiaries.

The Revd Dr Thomas Sharp and Jo Walchester were appointed as trustees on 13 December 2025, strengthening the Board during a period of significant strategic review and transition. The Revd Dr Mark Rowland resigned as a trustee on 14 March 2026.

Strategic and financial review

In late 2025 the trustees began a deep review of the charity's finances, capacity, identity, and future. They considered incremental and deeper cost reductions, deletion of the Chief Executive post, merger or integration with another organisation, and managed closure. Forecasts prepared for the review showed that cost reduction alone would defer, rather than resolve, the depletion of free reserves. The deletion of the Chief Executive post stabilised the immediate financial position but materially increased reliance on trustees and the remaining staff member.

At a Strategy Day on 24 January 2026, trustees examined the charity's purpose and values, strengths and weaknesses, membership model, scope, partnership opportunities, and the practical requirements of remaining independent. At that stage they affirmed the continuing need for a distinct LGBTQ+ Christian voice and indicated an intention to remain independent for the time being while pursuing closer collaboration. This conclusion was subsequently tested through further financial and strategic work, including consideration of whether another organisation or organisations could carry forward the mission more sustainably.

Conclusion and proposed dissolution

Following that deeper review, the trustees concluded that OneBodyOneFaith has reached the end of its useful life as a separate charity. This is not a conclusion that its purposes are no longer needed. LGBTQ+ Christians continue to experience exclusion, hostility, and erasure, and the need for pastoral support, education, community, worship, and advocacy remains urgent. Rather, the trustees concluded that the charity's declining recurring income, limited staff and trustee capacity, high fixed-cost model, and the availability of other organisations better placed to deliver the mission make continued independent operation neither the most sustainable nor the most effective use of charitable resources.

The trustees will therefore recommend to the members that the charitable company be dissolved. Subject to the members' decision and all necessary legal and regulatory steps, the trustees intend to conduct an orderly, solvent wind-down; discharge liabilities and obligations to staff, creditors, funders, and other stakeholders; safeguard beneficiaries and information; preserve or transfer appropriate resources and organisational learning; and distribute the remaining assets to one or more charities with compatible objects that are better placed to support and campaign for LGBTQ+ Christians.

Any transfer of restricted funds will respect the original restrictions and will be made only with any consents or directions required. The selection of recipient organisations will be subject to due diligence, consideration of their objects, governance, capability, safeguarding, inclusion, and ability to apply the funds effectively for compatible charitable purposes.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

Trustees are elected by the members at the Annual General Meeting in accordance with the governing document. The Board may also co-opt trustees during the year to bring particular skills and experience, with appointments then dealt with in accordance with the articles. The trustees are the directors of the charitable company and are collectively responsible for strategy, stewardship of assets, risk, compliance, and oversight of management.

Funds Held on behalf of others

As disclosed in the financial statements, the charity holds certain funds on behalf of their parties to which it has no legal entitlement. Those funds are not regognised as assets of the charity and will continue to be administered in accordance with the applicable arrangements during any wind-down.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of OneBodyOneFaith Ltd.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of OneBodyOneFaith Ltd. ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 October 2025.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also 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 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 your charity's accounts as 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

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the 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

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

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.

Emphasis of matter

Without qualifying my conclusion, I draw your attention to note 12 of the financial statements, which describes the trustees recommendation that the charitable company be dissolved. My conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 October 2025

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charitable company, 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 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than the going concern basis.

The trustees have concluded that the charity is not a going concern as they do not believe the charity can continue in its current operating model and are consulting with members regarding the charity's dissolution. Accordingly, these financial statements have not been prepared on the going concern basis. Assets have been stated at their estimated recoverable amounts. Liabilities in respect of the cessation of activities have been included only where there was an obligation present at the year end.

Income

Income and endowments

Voluntary income including donations, gifts, royalties, legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general nature is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability

Donations and legacies

Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance by the charity before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.

Grants receivable

Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released.

Investment income

Dividends and interest are recognised once the dividends and interest has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend and interest due.

Expenditure

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable

expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset's use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.

Charitable activities

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Government grants

Government grants are recognised based on the accrual model and are measured at the fair value of the asset received or receivable. Grants are classified as relating either to revenue or to assets. Grants relating to revenue are recognised in income over the period in which the related costs are recognised. Grants relating to assets are recognised over the expected useful life of the asset. Where part of a grant relating to an asset is deferred, it is recognised as deferred income.

Restricted Funds:

LGBT + Futures: Faith Fund

A grant of £750 was received to be spent on the core funds of the organisation.

Open Theology Trust

We received a grant of £2,000 from the Open Theology Trust towards our Rhythm Retreat.

Sir Halley Stewart Trust

Due to a previous relationship with Halley Stewart, last year we successfully applied for a grant of £50,000 over 36 months for our 'Faith Sector Inclusive and Reflective Leadership Development Programme'.

Transfer

A transfer has been made to bring the restricted fund balance to £nil. A decision was made to supplement restricted funds in order to meet costs where restricted funds received were insufficient.

Notes to the Financial Statements - continued

for the Year Ended 31 October 2025

11. RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES

There were no related party transactions for the year ended 31 October 2025.

12. POST BALANCE SHEET EVENTS

Following the year end, and in light of the charity's financial position, the trustees undertook a review of the charity's finances, capacity, identity and future. The trustees concluded that whilst the purpose of the charity remains urgent, the declining income, limited staff and trustee capacity and high fixed costs, this charity is no longer best placed to continue to deliver the mission. As such they will be recommending to the members that the charitable company be dissolved.

13. THIRD PARTY FUNDS

Opening Balances Incoming Resources Resources Expended Total Baptist Ministry Project 254 254

The funds held on behalf of third parties are not recognised within the accounts as there is no legal entitlement to the charity. The balance at the year end is shown as a creditor which is updated for bank movements in the period.

14. ROYALTIES FROM LITERATURE

The Charity owns rights to royalties from literature. There is no record of the cost of the literature and as such is not recognised on the balance sheet.
