Trustees' Report for the period ended 31 March 2023
M B MINISTRIES
The trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charity comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charity's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" issued in October 2019.
Structure, governance and management
Constitution
MB Ministries is constituted by a charitable trust Deed dated 1 September 1999 as amended by a deed of amendment dated 16 January 2000. The management of the charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and coopted under the terms of the Trust deed. The Trust Deed appoints Michael Bryant, the Founder, as the Chairman, though he is not a trustee. He does not therefore have a vote, unless the vote by the trustees is tied in which case he has the casting vote.
Trustees
The Trustees who were serving when the accounts were approved are shown on page 1, Mr Steve Bones FCA resigned on 30th June 2022 and Miss Rowena Arthur was appointed on 5th August 2022, all other Trustees served throughout the year.
Objective
To advance the Christian Religion by the teachings of evangelism.
Achievements and performance
a. Going Concern
After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the Accounting Policies.
b. Review of Activities
The main work of the trust has been in Folkestone, Kent, where we continue to meet as 'Kingdom Revival Church'. The premises continue to serve as an administration centre for the running of the Charity and has benefitted from being a formal 'place of worship'. The charity continues to minister the Gospel to all that attend the meetings and reaching further afield via the use of online technology from the current venue/premises.
This is also where we hold our regularevents which extends outside of the church to partners and friends, making good use of the current premises which are also used for prayer and various evangelical teachings and seminars, including Revival meetings.
A series of revival meetings took place in Redruth Cornwall and a School of the Supernatural was also held there, which was well attended and beneficial in fulfilling the objectives of the trust.
c. Investment policy and performance
Funds are held in a bank deposit account.

M B MINISTRIES Trustees' Report for the period ended 31 March 2023
Financial review
Total income increased this year from £69,981 to £81,867 partly due to the revival meetings and School of the Supernatural held in Cornwall.
Expenditure increased from £57,498 to £71,827 due a considerable increase in rent paid to the landlord for the church building and telephone, broadband.
Total free reserves increased from £19,121 to £29,161. We are thankful to God.
Plans for future periods
The charity will continue to use the premises as we have done to teach the Word of God to the church and continues to be most useful as our prayer room, administration centre and public place of worship. The colourful interior serves as a great backdrop for the online teaching. The ministry will continue in the local area and in the South West of England and other such places that open up for us.
Also planning to hold open air meetings to release the Kingdom to a wider public audience so to continue to facilitate the varied 'teachings of evangelism'
Trustees' responsibilities statement
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards ( United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in select jurisdiction 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 accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent:
. Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financail position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the charity ( Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assests of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the charity and financial information included on the charity's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Responsiblities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees 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 charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of the 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.
