## **WALLINGTON CHRISTIAN OUTREACH LIMITED** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022**_ 

The Trustees present their  annual  report and financial statements for the year ended 31 August 2022. 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the Company's Memorandum of Association, the Companies Act 2006 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 (FRS 102) " (effective 1 January 2019 ). 

The Company also trades under the name The Oasis. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## **a. Policies and objectives** 

The Company was formed to obtain charitable status and acquire the charitable activities of Wallington Christian Outreach, itself a registered charity. Charitable status was granted on 17 July 1996 and it acquired the charitable activities, assets and liabilities with effect from 1 September 1997 when it commenced trading as The Oasis. 

## **b. Activities for achieving objectives** 

The principal way in which the work is carried out is by means of a Christian Bookshop operating at 39 Woodcote Road and known as The Oasis. From 1 May 2018 the shop has been managed by Anna Woodman with assistance from a team of volunteers. The work of the shop is overseen by the Trustees mainly through regular meetings. They bring a wealth of relevant experience, e.g. accountancy and business, to the job which they can do without further formal training. However, should formal training prove appropriate, this will be arranged. 

## **Public Benefit** 

In planning the activities of the Company, the Trustees have have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. The shop is open to the public and this, in our view, means that it is for the benefit of the public as required by charity law. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

## **Review of activities** 

Sales for the first half of the year continued to be affected by COVID-19 issues. Following the lifting of restrictions in February 2022, however, turnover increased substantially, resulting in an encouraging 47% increase in sales. Competition from online outlets continues to be a concern. However, the Trustees believe that the presence of a splendid range of cards and giftware, coupled with a welcoming environment, still encourages many into the shop. 

We again had the benefit of donations as in the previous year. We received a substantial gift by way of a charitable trust, which has had the effect of reducing our loss for the year to £4,02 8 (2021: loss of £10,758). Staffing of the shop remains challenging from time to  time and new volunteers are actively being sought.  In July 2022, our shop manager, Anna Woodman, moved with her family to Essex. However, she very kindly agreed to continue in her role, working remotely from home apart from one day a week, pending the appointment of a new manager. We are pleased to report that Dave Lock, previously manager of Manna Christian Centre in Streatham, has been appointed as our new manager with effect from 1 May 2023. Dave brings with him a wealth of experience as a Christian bookshop manager and we are looking forward to working with him. 

The lease came to an end in May 2014 and the Trustees have been holding over since that time. In May 2017, the  Trustees received from the landlord an offer of a new 10-year lease, at an increased rental, but felt unable to take  matters forward until a new manager had been appointed. The pandemic further delayed renewal discussions and these were postponed until December 2022, the landlord agreeing that the rent would be held at the same level until March 2023. We are currently awaiting an approach from the landlord’s agent. 

Considering the Company’s healthy cash position and the continuity of the business provided by our new manager, these financial statements have been prepared  on a going concern basis as, in the opinion of the Trustees, there are no material uncertainties about the Company’s  ability to continue for the foreseeable future, being 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022**_ 

## **Fundraising activities** 

The company does not actively participate in voluntary fund raising and relies on sales from its bookshop to raise funds to finance its charitable activities. 

## **Financial review** 

It is the policy of the Company that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to  at least four  month’s  running  expenditure. The Trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the Company ’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year. 

## **Plans for future periods** 

The Company plans to continue to operate in its existing markets. 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

## **Constitution** 

The Company is a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Memorandum of Association on 7  September 1994. The Company is constituted under a Memorandum of Association dated 7 September 1994 and is a  registered charity number 1056875. 

The principal object of the Company is to provide opportunities for outreach through the operation of a Christian bookshop known as The Oasis at 39 Woodcote Road, Wallington, Surrey, SM6 0LH. 

The Trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year  and up to the date of signature of the financial statements  were: 

H S Cole 

A J P French M G Rowlands P I Hawkins J G Hawkins J K Hawkins 

New trustees are elected by the existing trustees. One third of the trustees retire from office at each Annual General Election and, if they choose to offer themselves for re-election, are deemed to have been re-elected unless there is any express resolution otherwise. 

None of the Trustees has any beneficial interest in the company.  The memorandum and articles of association restrict the liability of the Trustees  on a winding up to £ 1 each . In the event of a winding up, accumulated funds shall be transferred to one or more charitable institutions having similar objects. The remuneration of the key management is shown in Note 7 to the financial statements. 

The trustees meet regularly and administer the charity by majority decision. 

## **Risk Management** 

The Trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the Company is exposed and to ensure appropriate  controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. 

The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Company is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the Company, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

**WALLINGTON CHRISTIAN OUTREACH LIMITED** 

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Charity information** 

Wallington Christian Outreach Limited is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 39 Woodcote Road, Wallington, Surrey, SM6 0LH. 

## **1.1 Accounting convention** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Company's governing document,  the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "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). The Company is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102. 

The Company has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows. 

The  financial statements are prepared in sterling , which is the functional currency of the  Company . Monetary a mounts  in these financial statements are  rounded to the nearest £. 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. 

## **1.2 Going concern** 

At the time of approving the financial statements, the  Trustees have  a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Trustees  continue  to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. 

## **1.3 Charitable funds** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives. 

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund.  The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

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

## **1.4 Income** 

Income is recognised when the Company is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received. 

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the Company has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount.  Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under  Gift Aid or  deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation. Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable. 

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the Company has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

**WALLINGTON CHRISTIAN OUTREACH LIMITED** 

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **(Continued)** 

Gifts in kind donated for distribution are included at valuation and recognised as income when they are distributed to projects. Gifts donated for resale are included as income when they are sold. Donated facilities and services are included at the value to the company where this can be quantified and a third party is bearing the cost. No income is recognised where there is no financial cost borne by a third party or where the value cannot be determined with reasonable accuracy. No amounts are included in the financial statements for services donated by general volunteers. 

Income from other trading activities relates to the sale of books and other goods, exclusive of value added tax and any discounts. 

## **1.5 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 are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. 

## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets  are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. 

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases: 

Leasehold land and buildings Over the period of the lease Office equipment 37.5% straight line Fixtures and fittings 25% Straight line 

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities . 

## **1.7 Impairment of fixed assets** 

At each reporting end date, the  Company  reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any ) . 

## **1.8 Stocks** 

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and  estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell . Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the  stocks to their present location and condition. Items held for distribution at no or nominal consideration are measured the lower of replacement cost and cost. 

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution.

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **(Continued)** 

## **1.9 Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. 

## **1.10 Financial instruments** 

The  Company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. Financial instruments are recognised in the  Company 's  balance sheet  when the  Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

## _**Basic financial assets**_ 

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost  less provision for impairment. A provision for impairment of debtors is established where there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the debt.  Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised. 

## _**Basic financial liabilities**_ 

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future p aymen ts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of  operations  from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors  and provisions  are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## _**Derecognition of financial liabilities**_ 

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the  Company ’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled. 

## **1.11 Taxation** 

The charitable company is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities. 

## **1.12 Retirement benefits** 

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged in the period to which they relate.

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022**_ 

## **2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements** 

In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, the Trustees might be required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
