BEYOND FINANCE CHARITABLE TRUST (Charity Registration Number 1069879) REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2024 The trustees have pleasure in submitting the Report and Accounts for the year ended 30 April 2024. Objectives of the charity The objectives for the year are to continue our work of funding projects at home and abroad where most impact can be achieved for those who are least able to help themselves. It is to reflect the heart of God towards the poor, oppressed, orphans, widows and socially and economically disadvantaged. Our aim in all the work of the charity is to acknowledge the provision of God in all our activities and to bring glory to Him. Government The policy and operating decisions of the charity rest with the trustees who meet regularly to monitor the activities of the charity. Trustee Team The trustee team members remain unchanged. At our AGM in June 2024 it was agreed that Elizabeth Hounsell would replace Peter Green as Chair. Elizabeth Hounsell Chair Andrew Hounsell Peter Green Miriam Green Hannah Davey Review of Activities In planning the activities of the charity, the trustees have given consideration to the guidance on public benefit issued by the Charity Commission in December 2008. Donations to the Trust in the 12 month period amounted to £83,110, the majority of which was given by Beyond Finance Limited. Two clients of Beyond Finance Limited made one off gift5 totalling £2,340. The balance of income was provided by interest on cash deposits and Gift Aid reclaimed. We anticipate further donations to be made by Beyond Finance Limited during the year. The direct expenses of the trust were kept very low at £420, being the accountancy fees and account charges to CAF Bank. There were no visits by trustees during the year to key projects that we have committed to support regularly, but Peter Green has again had direct involvement with TLG South West. He also joins an online prayer meeting with supporters of Luke Simone's team in Casa Cruzeiro. Liz Hounsell attended a Tearfund dinner to meet most of their international Country Direttors who were visiting the UK. All the Trustees maintain regular contatt with our selected charities.
Charitable giving from the trusttotalled £121,998 and the recipients were spread among local, national and overseas projects in furtherance of the objectives of the charity. As always, one of our main aims is to provide sustainable solutions to the problems of poverty and oppression at home and abroad, for which purpose we are happy to partner with other charities who have long term track record. The four largest recipients in the year were to l) £18,334 to Transforming Lives for Good, a UK charity equipping churches to help strugglir schoolchildren, being our commitment to the expansion of their work in South West England. 2) £15,000 to Food for the Hungryfortheir Community Development Programme in Mwumba, Burundi; 31 Tearfund - a total of £13,690 to 3 projects including the emergency appeal in Ethopia; 4) a total of £10,540 to Casa Cruzeiro, a teaching and development centre in Brazil for young people where Luke Simone is Executive Director. Having considered the potential income for the coming year, the trustees are happy to continue supporting several organisations that we have donated funds to in past years, including the above named charitie5 and others that fit our 'criteria for giving,. Other projects, including disaster relief appeals, will be considered as they arise. The funds carried forward as at 30th April 2024 were £ 41,567.65. Risk Statement The trustees have reviewed the risks to a small charitable trust operating with no employees and volunteers restricted to the trustee group. Appropriate procedures are in place to identify, monitor and review these risks on a regular basi5. Trustees, Responsibilities Charity law requires us to prepare financial statements for each accounting year which give a true and fair view of the state of the charity and of its income and expenditure for the year. l. Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently 2. Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent 3. State whether the applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material depa rtures disclosed and explained in the accounts. 4.

We are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Trust and enable us to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. We also have a responsibility to safeguard the assets of the charity and to take reasonable steps to prevent fraud or any other irregularities. Elizabeth Hounsell Chair of Trustees September 2024
