Page 2 



## **NEW LIFE CHURCH CRAWLEY** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)** 

To help us fulfil this vision, there are several key values we lead the church in: 

**Encountering Holy Spirit** - We are committed to allowing the Holy Spirit to be actively involved in our community life through spiritual gifts, the word of God and congregational participation. 

**Operating in Grace** - We seek to be a grace filled church that welcomes all whatever the stage of the journey in faith. 

**Transforming Teaching** - We believe in biblical, anointed teaching as a catalyst for transformation in individuals’ lives. 

**Motivating Mission** - We acknowledge the importance of mission that reaches and supports the local community and into other nations. 

**Engaging Worship** - We will provide regular opportunities for people to encounter God in a variety of styles through the power of God the Holy Spirit. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

## _**Review of actvities**_ 

The Trustees are thankful for the continued outworking of His vision and purposes for New Life through the many dedicated individuals serving alongside the Trustees in the various departments of the church. 

Trustees meetings were held, and decisions were made in a hybrid fashion with a mixture of online email communication where necessary as allowed under Charity Commission guidelines. We continued to make use of technology and social media to live stream the service to people who were unable to attend in person. 

## _Ministerial Support & Ministries_ 

The relationship with the AOG continued during the year with personal and church connections as part of New Life’s mandate to keep its relationship and status as an AOG Church. David and Beverley attended the national Conference in Harrogate in May 2023 as part of the requirement for AOG ministers to connect with the denomination. We were also able to host the Zone Day for the area and connect with the wider church network. This also meant attendance at Emmanuel Church in London led by area leader Pastor Nick Hughes. 

Missions continued to be a feature of life and leadership in New Life with renewed connections in India, Pakistan and Nigeria. This has included regular online meetings and meetings with key personnel. We continued to support various humanitarian outreaches and efforts undertaken by our various partners in these countries including a joint Christmas Party with Pakistan. David undertook successful trips to Pakistan and Nigeria which has allowed the vision for missions work to develop.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)** 

During the year we were also able to continue to develop some key areas of ministry with the Evangelism Team where Sajjad Ahmad had been appointed as the team co-ordinator. The team has made regular visits to the town centre and since early 2024 have also been visiting areas closer to the church. Key outreach events through the summer, the Light Party, Christmas and Easter have also been advertised and information distributed in the area to make available the events and activities to those in the community. 

A key area of ministry to fulfil the vision of proclaiming the Good News of New Life in Jesus has been fulfilled through the work of the schools ministry throughout the year. This has resulted in assemblies in partnership with the Lighthouse Project as well as regular clubs in The Oaks and St Andrews. The significant relationships built over this time has also allowed several year groups to visit the church building at New Life and participate in engaging activities to better explain the basis of the Christan faith. In addition, Community Pastor, Kerry Murray, has led the team in the regular midweek ministry for children of primary school age called Cosmic Comets. 

Beverley Dickson continued to serve in her role as Safeguarding co-ordinator ensuring we are kept up to date with DBS checks, current legislation and ongoing supportive role with Thirty-One Eight while Liz Tapp continues to serve in her role as Pastoral Care Team Co-ordinator. We were able to train team members in several key areas of support and ministry to see people released into their gifts using the APEST Model of gift discovery and deployment in the incoming year. 

## _Discipleship_ 

One of the significant challenges of this current climate continues to be the emotional, mental and spiritual health of the congregation. During the year a continued investment of time, energy and resources were expended in developing the model of ministry from Freedom in Christ to see people set free from various areas of need. This included a new project in the form of The Bereavement Journey which was advertised and available to those inside and outside with some attendance from the wider community. Various teaching groups and courses have been held with the midweek groups in Reflect and with church elder David Eaton. 

## _Building Work_ 

The Trustees have continued to look for ways to enhance the fabric of the building and maintain it to a good standard. Painting and decorating continues to be done regularly in partnership with a team of volunteers from Natwest so that visually the building is an attractive option for users. We were pleased to be able to continue to offer some community groups such as Dimensions use of the building for their work in the community. 

## **Financial review** 

Income for the year amounted to £113,188 (2023: £83,367) and expenditure £111,175 (2023: £105,778), resulting in a surplus of £2,013 (2023: deficit £22,411). Total funds carried forward amount to £469,768 (2023: £467,755) of which £461,858 (2023: £460,061) are unrestricted.

## **NEW LIFE CHURCH CRAWLEY** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)** 

Missions giving was regularly discussed in support of various ministries we connected to and as appropriate we were able to give to needs on an individual basis to families in need and our Mission partners across the world. 

## _**Going concern**_ 

The Trustees have performed a review of the financial position of the charity and believes there are sufficient resources to manage any financial risks. The Trustees reasonably expect that that we have adequate resources to continue operating for the foreseeable future. The Trustees are satisfied that there are no material uncertainties relating to events or conditions which cast doubt upon the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. Therefore, the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual report and financial statements. 

## **Statement of Responsibilities** 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations. 

The law applicable to charities 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 of the charity for that period. 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; 

- 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; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper 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 constitution. The Trustees 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. 

The annual report was approved by the Trustees of the charity on 15 April 2024 and signed on its behalf by:

As the charity Trustees of New Life Church Crawley you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). 

I report in respect of my examination of the New Life Church Crawley's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

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

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of New Life Church Crawley as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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. 

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.

Page 9 



## **NEW LIFE CHURCH CRAWLEY** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 (CONTINUED)** 

## _**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. 

## _**Grant provisions**_ 

Provisions for grants are made when the intention to make a grant has been communicated to the recipient but there is uncertainty about either the timing of the grant or the amount of grant payable. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity 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 charity 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. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Individual fixed assets costing £500 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. 

## **Depreciation and amortisation** 

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows: 

|**Asset class**|**Depreciation method and rate**|
|---|---|
|Land and buildings|2% on cost|
|Furniture and fittings|25% on cost|
|Equipment|25% on cost|



## **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. 

## **Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

## **NEW LIFE CHURCH CRAWLEY** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 (CONTINUED)** 

## **Liabilities** 

Liabilities 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 charity 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. 

## **Fund structure** 

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the Trustees discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity. 

Designated funds are unrestricted funds set aside for specific purposes at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose. 

## **Pensions and other post retirement obligations** 

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme which is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the charity has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods. 

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.
