## **Objects**
The objects of the charity are:
- 1) To promote the knowledge and practice of the Christian Faith and in particular but not so as to limit the generality of the foregoing:-
- a. to encourage people to worship and glorify God and become disciples of Jesus Christ.
- b. To advance the Christian Faith by promotion of evangelism and social mission.
- 2) To carry on such other charitable activities as the charity may determine.
## **Management**
The Elders manage the spiritual life of the church and work closely with the leaders of other churches in the Forge Sphere Group. The Trustees hold the legal responsibility for the company/charity and are responsible to the Members. The staff and volunteers are responsible to their Head of Department, who in turn are responsible to the Elders.
## **Finance**
The Charity is totally self-supporting, giving 13% of its income away to various good causes. The Gift Aid Declaration Scheme and GADAS still provide a successful additional income at no extra cost to our members.

## **Romney Marsh Community Church**
## **Reserves Policy**
It is a requirement of the Charites Act that the trustees consider the financial requirements of the Charity on an ongoing basis and formulate a policy which seeks to determine the level of reserves required to be held at any one time to enable the Charity to carry out its charitable activities.
The Charity is founded on biblical principles, one of which is that all things come from God, and He will provide for our every need (Luke 12:22-31). On this basis, whilst the trustees understand the importance of good practice and stewardship in all matters relating to the Charity, they do not believe it is appropriate to make specific financial provision for future liabilities.
## **Activities**
The gradual lifting of COVID restrictions, has meant activities returned to normal, with some new additions.
Rainbow Toddlers recommenced, giving much needed support to young mum and carers of preschool ages children, which has been missed the previous year. They are, as a group, donating to the RNLI through their subs. They also had an Easter and Christmas parties in which Christian books were given to the children. The mums and carers with the Toddler helpers also had a Christmas meal together, they are invited to all our services and appropriate activities.
The regular Sunday worship services are now physically operating, but we still stream services on line making them open to people of all faiths or no faith, of any age, nationality, culture or gender, and give a public benefit to all who choose to view and engage; all are welcomed and valued equally. This will continue. The basis of our teaching and moral and ethical guidance is in line with the scriptures and teaching of Jesus Christ as contained in the Bible. In addition, we have a Church on Tuesday evenings to make our services more accessible to those who cannot attend Sunday mornings.
Formats of doing Church have been experimented with to encourage more diversity and accessibility. Café style church, in which we start with breakfast and have a more informal service using more multimedia technology, games and quizzes. Also we have had a service on the beach during the summer. We are also starting regular Building Block Church in which we share breakfast together and to encourage families to come to learn more about Christ. We are contacting Beaver groups to see if they would like to come. We have had our first Memorial Service, to allow people space to be supported through grief and to give thanks for their loved ones.
Discipleship groups are now in person and meet regularly for fellowship, study and ministry. Also, there are more opportunities for prayer with weekly pray walks and lunch time prayer. We have also had a half day of prayer and fasting, where we are

seeking God’s direction for the church after lockdown, a new successor for our Pastor and for our community, nation and worldwide matters.
Tuesday Pulse Drop in club is the only “Youth club” now running. Clients are mainly young adults with learning difficulties. Unfortunately, one of their members died suddenly and the surprising consequence was the group has grown to from 5 to 20 participants. They pray regularly together and have done a youth Alpha.
We completed an Alpha and have celebrated 3 baptisms, 2 directly from the Alpha Course. Their family and friends came to the service to hear the Gospel and to witness their confession of faith.
We have welcomed three Ukrainian Refugees into our congregation and have contributed to the Ukraine Crisis Tear fund appeal.
Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee was celebrated with a “bring and share” lunch in which people could invite others. We give thanks to God for our sovereign. Others from our church were involved with street parties in their neighbourhoods to mark the day and show how God had been a big part of our Queens service to us and how we are to serve our communities too. We give out books from the Bible Society to visitors and friends to share her story of Christian Faith in action.
We contributed financial and in person with our local Country Fayre, and were involved in the parade and being a Christian presence on the field. Ride and Stride was running again and we opened up the church to participants to have refreshments and rest.
The Christmas Soup Restaurant ran this year for the first time in 2 years. Much of the church was involved in some way, be it making soup, serving or just talking to diners. It was run over three lunch times and raised over £2,000 for RNLI and Tear fund. We also advertised our Christmas Candle light service and Christmas Service. Unfortunately, these were poorly attended as we had wave of COVID infections and flu.
Foodbank started Face to Face service on the 1[st] March. This unfortunately, has seen a marked increase of those needing our support. As well as food and some toiletries given, signposting to various agencies, and having secured a grant from Member Ward Budget Grant Scheme for a fridge freezer, we can now give out fresh fruit and veg, some dairy and bread. Clients are given the opportunity to be prayed with and invited to our various activities
## **Employees**
Nicholas Barratt continues as Pastor of the Church for 20 hours per week. A Church Receptionist/Caretaker for 10 hours per week.
A Community Liaison Officer for 8 hours per week to deal with finance and funding issues.
A Children’s Worker for 5 hours per week.

A Community Support worker for 10 hours per week (resigned Oct 2022)
## **Other Work**
The charity has two people who are registered with Kent County Council to officiate at wedding ceremonies. Two weddings took place during the year.
We are in the process of renewing all the Church’s wooden windows with aluminum double glazed units, work started in December. This should reduce maintenance costs in the long term and be thermally more efficient. We have also had plans drawn up for the installation of a lift, making the 1[st] floor accessible to all and safer for heavy deliveries.
## **Facilities rented out**
Unit 3 in The Centre is occupied by Al’s Gym, which is now fully re-opened.
The Marsh Academy, excluded pupils project has run in unit 5 although numbers have reduced since the pandemic
Reflective Care Ltd uses an office at the front of the first floor in The Centre.
RMCC is in membership with the Baptist Union of Great Britain. RMCC continues to be part of The Forge Sphere group of churches (a geographical and relational group of churches originally all part of Salt & Light Ministries across the south of England) who all had the same hard decision to make to step out from under the Salt & Light banner and develop their own network, giving additional pastoral care for our leaders, and apostolic input.
Bruce Streather retired as a trustee in May 2022, having served for 10 years. Bruce has gone above and beyond his original commitment and the trustees want to acknowledge the great wisdom he has brought to the role. We are currently seeking a replacement, potentially from outside the charity (possibly from one of our partner organisations) to bring an added dimension to the trustee body.

Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees, Directors and members of the Romney Marsh Community Church
Charity No: 1075784 Company No: 3719704
I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31st December 2022 which are set out on pages 7 to 16.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity’s trustees of the Company (who are also the directors of the company 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 for this year 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 material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that:
- accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; or
- the accounts do not accord with such records; or
- the accounts do not comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 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
- the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102).
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.

## **Notes to the Accounts**
## **1. Basis of Preparation**
## **Basis of Accounting**
These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts, accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 and with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
The accounts present a true and fair view and no changes in the basis of accounting have been made during the year. There have also been no changes to the previous accounts during the financial year.
## **Going Concern**
The trustees are of a view that there are sufficient reserves to secure the immediate future of the Trust for the next 12 to 18 months and on that basis the charity is a going concern.
## **Cash Flow Exemption**
The charitable company has not produced a Statement of Cash Flows, as the charity is within the small company and charity thresholds.

Restricted funds are to be used for the specific purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is identified to the fund.
## **Income**

## **Expenditure**
Restricted and designated fund expenditure is made on a regular basis. Other expenditure is included on an accruals basis when incurred. Governance costs are those related to the running of the Charity, including the Independent Examination and other statutory costs.
## **Judgements and Estimations**
The trustees have not made any significant judgements in the process of applying the accounting policies and there are no areas of estimation uncertainty that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities.
## **Net current Assets**
Current assets are cash at bank with immediate access and debtors. The fixed assets refer to the Charity’s building, The Centre in New Romney, Kent. Current liabilities are obligations to pay for services within one year.

The (Romney Enterprise) Centre was purchased by the Church for the furtherance of its aims and objectives during the year 2000. The purchase was partly funded by a release of trust funds from the Baptist Union Corporation and partly by way of a loan from Lloyds Bank Plc secured against the property by way of a mortgage. The loan was due to be repaid over a 20 year period.
During 2003 an additional mortgage was taken out secured against The Centre to provide funds for capital works required for furtherance of the aims of the charity. Part of this work was also funded by way of a grant awarded to the charity during 2001 from The New Romney Institute.
The trustees decided that as extensive structural improvements have been carried out at The Centre, and that these improvements greatly enhanced the value of the property, the costs associated with these improvements should be capitalised to reflect this. Further works were carried out during 2004 and again these costs were capitalised.
In late 2006 some damage was sustained to The Centre by a third party, which was then subject to an insurance claim. Remedial works were carried out during the latter part of 2008 and during 2009 and it was decided to combine some improvement work in with the repairs. To this end the charity borrowed

an additional sum from Lloyds TSB Bank secured against The Centre and the amount of these improvements have been capitalised in the accounts.
The Church is the beneficial owner (subject to the relevant trusts) of the following assets the legal title to which is held by the Church's custodian trustee The Baptist Union Corporation Ltd.
The Chapel value was revised in 2019 due to the fact that it was subject to a contract of sale and having been placed on the open market and independently valued the Trustees had accepted an offer of £140,000 for the sale. This sale completed in January 2020 and the resultant funds are held in trust by the BU Corporation on behalf of the church.
A full breakdown of the trust fund movement is shown in Note 10.
