## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT ON THE ACCOUNTS** 

Report to the Trustees of Triumphant Church International on the accounts for the year ended 31st March 2023 set out on pages 8 to 15. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011) and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts (under section 145 of the Act); 

- follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under section 145(5)(b) of the Act); and 

- state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the organisation and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the Trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. Independent examiner's qualified statement: 

In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: 

- the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or 

- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

- the accounts did 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.

## **TRUSTEES REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023**

Missions work entails support we provide to other charities to enable them help the disadvantaged plus Our outreach programmes stretched to Nigeria, Ghana, South Africa and Europe. 

Our outreaches to less privileged children and widows in Africa continued in the year

- **Annual Programme and Conferences:** These themed programmes conferences aimed at developing and educating members of the church and the general public on various issues which are practical and relevant to their lives and will benefit the society at large. Major conferences were planned for children, youth, women, men and families all addressing issues that are relevant to these specific groups of people. 

- **Training:** This entails the local and international training of members to be effective in their ministry, life skills, citizenship skills and family enhancement training. This extends also to training conducted for members of the community who are not necessarily members of Triumphant Church International. 

## **5. ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE**

Our focus for some years running has been the health and well being of families within the Church and our communities plus our missionary fields outside the country, seeing that we have many young and thriving families within the Church. And so most activities have been targeted around empowering families, children, single parents, etc and empowering them spiritually, physically, materially, psychologically etc.

## **TRUSTEES REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** 

## `o` **INVESTMENT POLICY** 

There are no restrictions on the church’s power to invest hence any unrestricted and restricted funds may be invested in any type of investment. The Trustees have the power to invest in such investments as they see fit. They will however endeavour to invest in low and medium risk investment with a view to ensuring the return on investment is above inflation rate averaged over a five- year period. 

## • **FULL PAYMENT OF MORTGAGE AND NEW PROPERTY** 

We are glad to announce that on 8[th] December 2022, Triumphant Church International paid off the mortgage on our property at 136 West Green Road, N15 5AD. 

On same day the Church made full payment for our new property at 36 Chislehurst Road, Orpington Kent BR6 3DG. 

We give all Glory to God. 

## **RESERVES POLICY** 

- We are starting to look at keeping reserves to enable us look at purchasing properties for one more of our branches that use rented property. 

## **RISK MANAGEMENT** 

- The trustees actively review the risks, including financial risk, which the church faces on a regular basis. They have assessed the major financial risks which the church is exposed to as those related to downward turn in income of the church. The Trustees are satisfied that monitoring attendance, the health of the church and the expenditure and accounts and the regular review of the controls over key financial systems will ensure this significant risk is mitigated. 

- The Trustees maintain and review a “Risk Register” of the financial, operational and business risks. 

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES RESPONSIBILITY** 

Charity Law 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 at the year end and of its incoming resources and resources expended for that year. In preparing those financial statements the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently: 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent 

8 



## **TRUSTEES REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** 

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

The trustees are responsible for: keeping proper accounting records, disclosing the financial position of the charity with reasonable accuracy and ensuring that the financial statement comply with the Charities Act 1993. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

## **COVID 19** 

We thought to mention this to the annual report for the 2022 account. Covid19 affected the Church in numerous ways, key amongst all was the fact that due to lockdown and Government Stay Home instructions, church members have not had the total freedom of worshipping together physically, praying together physically and receiving the face to face support that many have enjoyed for years. As Pastors of the Church, counselling, prayers, of members was always paramount and not being able to do that face to face, for these number of months has been a major issue. 

However despite the regulations, we managed under strict compliance to policies of masking, social distancing and sanitizing etc to do the following community and member programmes 

1. We set up Welfare Funds where members, their families and members of the community could access without too much probing for their basic needs of feeding, electricity and gas bills. 

2. We continued to run our Five Loaves Food bank and served our community all through the pandemic and lockdown 

3. We supported the elderly and sick within our community with shopping 

4. We continued our Christmas Angels serving over 270 families in London and Basildon Essex with Whole Turkeys, Christmas groceries and gifts. 

5. Members of our community mentioned Triumphant Church International to the BBC Songs of Praise team who came to film our Christmas outreach to our community.

- The board of Trustees and Senior Pastors wish to express special thanks to all the pastors, ministers, leaders, church voluntary workers and members of Triumphant Church International for their unflinching support to the ministry. This has been a very challenging year for us all but the most victorious year as well because we can truly say “ Thus Far has the Lord brought us” Our labour of love will not be in vain IN Jesus mighty name.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** 

## **Basis of preparation:** 

The financial statements of the charity have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (Charities SORP FRSSE) (effective 1 January 2015) and applicable accounting standards. 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Income** 

Recognition of Income 

These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when: 

▪ the charity becomes entitled to the resources; 

▪ the trustees believe it is probable they will receive the resources; and 

▪ the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability 

## **Income with related expenditure** 

Where income has related expenditure (as with fundraising or contract income) the income and related expenditure are reported gross in the SOFA. 

## **Grants and Donations** 

Grants and Donations are only included in the SOFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources. 

## **Tax reclaims on Donations and Gifts** 

Income from tax reclaims are included in the SOFA during the same period as the gift to which they relate. 

## **Gifts in Kind** 

Gifts in kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount realised. Gifts in kind for sale or distribution are included in the accounts as gifts only when sold or distributed by the charity. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SOFA as income when receivable. 

## **Donated Services and Facilities** 

These are only included in income (with an equivalent amount in expenditure) where the benefit to the charity is reasonably quantifiable, measurable and material. The value placed on these resources is the estimated value to the charity of the service or facility received. 

## **Volunteer Help** 

The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees' annual report. 

12 



## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** 

## **Investment Income** 

This is included in the accounts when receivable. 

## **Investment gains and losses** 

This includes any gain or loss on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. 

## **Expenditure and liabilities** 

## **Liability recognition** 

Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources. 

## **Governance Costs** 

Include costs of the preparation and examination of statutory accounts, the costs of the trustees meetings and cost of any legal advice to trustees on governance or constitutional matters. 

## **Changes in Accounting policies and previous accounts** 

The charity has opted to follow the SORP (FRSSE) for the financial year ending 31 March 2016. The comparative figures have been restated to reflect the requirements of Charity reporting. There is no effect on the results for the year ended 31 March 2016 or the net assets at 31 March 2016. 

## **Assets** 

Tangible fixed assets for use by the charity 

These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £500. They are valued at cost or, if gifted, at the value to the charity on receipt. 

Depreciation is calculated at a rate to write off the cost of tangible fixed assets on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives. The rates applied per annum are as follows: 

|Fixtures, Fittings and Equipment|20%|
|---|---|
|Plant and equipment|20%|
|Motor vehicles|20%|



No depreciation is charged to freehold property as the property is maintained to such a standard that the estimated residual value is not less than cost.
