## **Highworth Community Church** 

## **Year Ended 31st December 2020** 

## **Trustee's Annual Report** 

## **Public Benefit Statement** 

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our trustees have given consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular the advancement of the Christian faith through the provision of worship and teaching services and the relief of sickness, financial hardship and promoting good health. This has been achieved by the provision of funds, and services. 

## **Financial Review** 

The financial activity for the charity during the year was a total surplus of £139,088 made up of an unrestricted surplus of £50,019 and a restricted surplus of £89,069. 

## **Going Concern** 

The Trustees are satisfied that the Charity is a going concern and do not know of any uncertainties regarding the organisations ability to continue operating as a going concern. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The trustees have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the charity's needs. This is based on the charity's size and the level of financial commitments held. The trustees aim to ensure the charity will be able to continue to fulfil its charitable objectives even if there is a temporary shortfall in income or unexpected expenditure. The trustees will endeavour not to set aside funds unnecessarily. 

The trustees actively review the major risks which the charity faces on a regular basis and believe that maintaining the free reserves stated, combined with the annual review of the controls over key financial systems carried out on an annual basis will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions. The trustees have also examined other operational and business risks which they face and confirm that they have established systems to mitigate the significant risks. 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

A) To advance the Christian faith in accordance with the statement of beliefs in the schedule hereto in Wiltshire and in such other parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the trustees may from time to time think fit. 

B) To relieve persons who are in conditions of need or hardship or who are aged or sick and to relieve the distress caused thereby in the said Wiltshire and in such other parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the trustees may from time to time think fit. 

C) To promote and fulfil such other charitable purposes beneficial to the community in the said Wiltshire and in such other parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the trustees may from time to time think fit. 

## **Achievement and Performance** 

2020 has been an unprecedented year, many would never have used that word but by the end of the year we were all using it.  Highworth Community Church (HCC) has had to change the way we meet.  Over much of the lock downs there were no face-to-face meeting but regular streaming and Zoom meetings allowed us to maintain much of the church’s work. 

Each Sunday has seen us having a streamed service with many of the church family taking part, allowing the leaders to not feel pressured to deliver everything, plus its meant that many of us will have seen each other via You Tube.  At the moment we are not sure as to when we will be able to meet again at Warneford School, but we are thankful that St Michaels church made their building available for us to meet. 

Services that we provide such as Food Collective, CAP (Christians against Poverty), and many different support groups have continued to provide loving encouragement in a Covid secure way.  During 2020 we have still managed to run many of our regular groups, Alpha, Training School and Prayer ministry via Zoom, which has enabled many to feel included.  There have been several events undertaken jointly with other Churches in Highworth, facilitating a closer working together at community events.

## **Trustee's Annual Report** 

Our Safeguarding Co-ordinator, Mr Val Savill had given us notice that he wished to step down, but due to Covid he continued in his role until October 2020 he has now handed over all his duties to Mr Paul Fisher.  We thank them both for all their dedication to this very important role. 

The trustees continue to develop an effective working relationship with the leadership team; building on the core strengths needed of maintaining good communication and a joint understanding of our individual roles. At the end of December, I decided that it is time for me to stand down as Trustee and Chairperson.  I accepted the position because I felt God had said that I should.  Now I feel he is saying it’s time to hand things over, and Mrs Joanna Pearse will be picking up the mantel of chairperson. 

In the coming year HCC plans to continue to support the local community through regular church gatherings online or in person as government restrictions allow. We plan to continue support groups and community services at The Bridge and in the wider community. As well as this we will be undertaking and encouraging mission opportunities locally, nationally and around the world. 

## **Trustees’ Responsibilities** 

The 2011 Charities Act require the Board of Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the Board is required to:- 

- Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently. 

- Make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent. 

- Prepare financial statements on the ongoing concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the trust will continue in existence. 

- State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records, which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the trust.  They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the trust and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## **Year Ended 31st December 2020** 

## **Independent Examiners Report** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Highworth Community Church ('the charity') for the year ended 31 December 2020. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). 

I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements 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 confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW), which is one of the listed bodies. 

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 the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

2. the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

3. the financial statements do not comply with the applicable 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.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the accounts. 

## **Incoming Resources** 

All incoming resources are recognised once the charity has entitlement to the resources, it is probable that the resources will be received, and the monetary value of incoming resources can be measured with sufficient reliability. 

• All voluntary income from members of the church are recognised as donations and are included in full, with associated Gift Aid receivable in the Statement of Financial Activities. 

• Grants where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of specific performance by the charity are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant. 

• Income resources from charitable trading activities such as the letting of the building are accounted for when invoices are drawn up (as the point of entitlement). 

• Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified. 

• Gifts in Kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount actually realised. 

• Volunteer time, the value of voluntary support for the work of the church is not included in the accounts but is described in the Trustees annual report.
