Ivy Church Accounts for 2023. AGM report
Undesignated Giving decreased by 6.60/0
Thank you to all those who have continued to give regularly, in church, online
or by standing order. This has been remarkable and has been fundamental to
maintaining our financial strength.
Ivy Church (it's people!) are very generous.
Our total cash assets are very healthy at £128226". Having reserves that are
higher than planned alleviates COn￿rnS with regards to reduced income and
allows time to invest for the future.
Costs for gas, electricity, water higher, as new contracts saw a sharp rise in
utility tariffs.
Building updates included: Rear building redecoration, including ceiling tiles
rePla￿Ment, now pending lighting update and flooring update.
Overall spending for the year dropped by 140/0
Gift Aid income" _ Not claimed in 2023 { 21ots will be claimed in 2024, final
HMRC activation code for Treasurer to act on behalf of Ivy Church re￿iVed

There was a deficit at the end of the year of £5614
Predicted spend for 2024 include an update to the church house. parts of
which are overdue.

ITry Penteeostal Church (Registered CharAty Number 1050613)

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF IVY PENTECOSTAL
CHURCH
I report on the accounts of the Charty (number 1050613) for the year ended 31 December
2023 which are set out on pages 1
Respective responsibilities of Trustees and examiner:
The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 43(2)
of the Charities Act 1993 {the act). as amended by s.28 of the Charities Act 2006 and that an
independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
examine the accounts (under section 43 of the Act, as amended.,
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity
Commission (under section 43{7)(b) of the Act. as amended). and to state whether
particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examinerfs report=
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the
Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by
the Charty and a comparison of Ihe accounts presented with those records. It also includes
consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations
from the trustees conceming any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide
all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an
audit opinion on the accounts.
Independent examinerfs statement:
In connection wÉth my examination. no matter has come to my attention which gNes me
reasonable cause to believe that. in any material respect, the trustees have not met the
requirements to ensure that:
proper accounting records are kept (in accordance with section 41 of the Act),.
and
accounts prepared agree with the accounting records and comply with the
accounting requirements of the Act.
