GOD'S VISION CHURCH
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
The trustees have pleasure in submitting the Report and Accounts for the year.
Objects of the charity
The charity is a trust and is governed by its Trust Deed. The principal object of the charity, as set out in the governing document, is to advance the Christian faith to people from various ethnic backgrounds in London, in the United Kingdom and in other parts of the world.
Summary of the charity's main activities and achievements
The charity, our church, strongly believes in and depends upon its regular Sunday and Wednesday services to maintain its strong faith. The charity's strategy has been to rent the church building of the Welsh Baptist Church in 30 Eastcastle Street, W1W 8DJ, for services and this has greatly helped encourage new members to worship in Central London. In March 2020, the charity took steps (in line with government advice) to help contain the nationwide outbreak of Covid-19. Covid-19 has had a significant impact on the way the congregation attends church services and cell meetings due to the government restrictions on public gathering, and the charity's desire and duty to protect the congregation and that of the Welsh Church. The charity's switch to fully online services including Sunday and Wednesday services, cell meetings and Suday schools were achieved because of the Lord's work through tireless volunteers to whom the charity is very grateful. The congregation number fell slightly due to our online services helping to serve them remotely. University students and families have reached similar in size.
The charity operates its cell groups (small groups) to allow close fellowship, and parents are benefiting from the expanding Sunday School programs, particularly the Sunday schools for all young ages. The charity is also supporting some church members through a modest scholarship program so that they may be equipped to serve the church worldwide.
The charity annually holds two retreats to strengthen our beliefs and fellowship within the church, and use this opportunity to invite non-church friends and families. However, both Easter and Christmas retreats were cancelled this year in response to Covid-19 restrictions.
The charity has continued to serve the local communities in which it operates to bring the love of Christ to them. This has been accomplished through the work of many committed volunteers who are 'salt and light' of the area. The charity's Saturday Street Mission in Oxford Circus, Regent Street, Piccadilly Circus, Tottenham Court, Soho and Leicester Square is continuing to bring the gospel to many different peoples and inviting them to local churches including ours. During lockdown, the teams diverted their efforts to training. The charity provides live English interpretations for all our online church services, including English-speaking cell. English translations are provided for the core bible study curriculums to welcome and encourage non-Koreans to share in the blessing of God. The charity is also continuing its work to support churches for ethnic minorities to allow them to listen to the gospel and share in fellowship in their own language and become closer to God.
Overseas, the charity continues to work with local Christian missionary work in India where more than half of the world’s unreached people live. This has been the charity's passion and we are blessed to be taking part in this great vision. Every fourth Sunday service is held as a Missionary Week Service where all the missionary offerings are then used for the India mission. During the year the charity supported several Korean missionaries who work in the UK and overseas.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES continued
Summary of the charity's main activities and achievements continued
To date there has been no significant impact on net income nonetheless the trustees are continuing to monitor income and expenditure closely and, if it becomes necessary, will take measures to mitigate any financial impact. The church has not had to make any redundancies nor furloughed any of its staff due to the extraordinary commitments from the pastors and volunteers within the boundaries of the evolving Covid19 restrictions.
In planning activities the trustees have applied the guidance on public benefit issued by the Charity Commission.
Structure, Governance and Management
Responsibility for setting policy and for determining the parameters within which the charity should operate rests with the trustees who meet regularly to monitor the activities of the charity. Responsibility for the day to day operation of the charity has been delegated to a team led by Rev Y J Lee. New trustees are recruited and appointed by the existing trustees, by a majority vote.
Financial review
During the year income increased by £1,032 to £319,155, and expenditure decreased by £82,859 to £167,407. As a result the surplus for the year was £152,748 (2019: £67,857) and the charity's net assets increased by £151,748 to £1,288,528. Net assets comprised tangible fixed assets of £631,710 and net current assets of £656,818. Net current assets included cash of £621,461, most of which was unrestricted.
The church's members continued to generously support the charity during the pandemic, and despite the pandemic, the charity's income is almost unchanged. Expenditure has fallen significantly because the church could not meet physically during the pandemic and the retreats normally organised by the church could not take place.
Reserves policy
The trustees have determined that the charity should aim to hold cash of no less than £150,000 in general funds so that the charity could continue to operate should income and / or expenditure vary adversely. The trustees are also seeking to accumulate reserves to fund further investment in property for use by the charity. At the year end the charity held unrestricted cash of £609,143 for these purposes.
Key risks and uncertainties
The charity is exposed to various risks - be they operational, financial or reputational. The trustees review the charity's activities regularly to identify significant risks and, where possible, they take appropriate measures to mitigate those risks.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES continued
Responsibilities of trustees under charity law
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).
Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charity as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources for the financial year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether the applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material
departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
- prepare the financial statements on a 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 disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011 and the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Approval
This report was approved by the trustees and signed on their behalf by:

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF
GOD'S VISION CHURCH ('the Charity')
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 December 2020 on pages 6 to 14 following, which have been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies set out on pages 8 and 9.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity’s trustees of the Trust 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
Since the Charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a Fellow of the Association of Charity Independent Examiners, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts 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.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
1 Statutory Information
The charity is a trust registered with the Charity Commission in England & Wales. The charity's registered number and principal address can be found on the Charity Information page.
2 Accounting Policies
These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention.
These financial statements have been prepared in 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) ("the Charities SORP"), with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland ("FRS 102") and with the Charities Act 2011. The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity as set out in FRS 102.
The Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 (the '2008 Regulations') requires charities to prepare their accounts in accordance with 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005' but this accounting standard has since been withdrawn and has been replaced by the Charities SORP mentioned in the preceding paragraph. The charity has prepared these financial statements in accordance with the new Charities SORP; this departure from the 2008 Regulations is believed to be necessary for these financial statements to give a 'true and fair view'.
The principles adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below.
a) Going concern
The trustees have assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. In particular the trustees have considered the charity's forecasts and projections and the possible implications should projected income and / or expenditure vary unexpectedly. The trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future. The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements. In making this assessment, the trustees have considered how COVID-19 might affect projections.
b) Income
Income including investment income is recognised in the period in which the charity becomes entitled to receipt, the amount receivable can be measured with reasonable certainty, and receipt is probable. For the most part, income is generally recognised when it is received. Income is only deferred when the charity has to fulfil conditions before becoming entitled to it or where the donor has specified that the income is to be expended in a future period.
Income from donations and legacies includes recoverable gift aid. This is recognised when the related donation is received. Gift aid that has not been recovered by the balance sheet date is included as a debtor.
The charity relies on volunteers to carry out many of its activities. However, in accordance with the SORP, the value of these services has not been included in these financial statements as they cannot be reliably measured.
Income from charitable activities represents income receivable from goods, services and facilities supplied in furtherance of the charity's charitable objects. It includes income from church retreats and other events and courses.
Investment income represents income generated by the charity's assets and includes income from letting charity property and bank interest.
c) Expenditure
Expenditure, including irrecoverable VAT, is recognised when it is incurred or, if earlier, when a legal or constructive obligation for a payment arises provided that it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
The charity makes grants to other institutions and individuals to further its charitable objectives. Grants payable are recognised as constructive obligations arise, which is generally when the charity expresses a commitment to the recipient that can be measured reliably and then only to the extent that any conditions associated with the grant are outside of the control of the charity.
Governance costs, which are included in expenditure on charitable activities but are identified separately in the notes to the accounts, includes costs associated with the independent examination of the financial statements, compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements and any other expenditure incurred on the strategic management of the charity.
d) Fund accounting
- General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. Restricted funds are donations which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors; they include donations received from appeals for specific activities or projects.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
2 Accounting Policies continued
- e) Tangible fixed assets
Items purchased or donated for the charity's own use are capitalised when the cost of purchased items, or the fair value of donated items, is more than £1,000 and the item is expected to benefit the charity over more than one accounting period. Depreciation is charged on a straight line basis so as to write down the value of each asset to its estimated residual value (if any) over its expected useful economic life. To achieve this objective the following rates of depreciation are charged:
Freehold property Freehold land is not depreciated; the freehold building is depreciated over 50 years after taking account of its residual value. Long leasehold property The premium paid for long leasehold property is amortised over the term of the lease. Equipment Over 3 to 7 years Motor vehicles Over 5 years
The carrying values of tangible fixed assets are reviewed for impairment in periods when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
The trustees consider the residual value of the charity's freehold building to be very high and have determined that the annual charge for depreciation, and cumulative provision, is immaterial.
f) Pension scheme arrangements
The charity operates defined contribution pension schemes for its employees. Obligations for contributions to these schemes are recognised as an expense when the liability arises. The assets of these schemes are held separately from those of the charity in independently administered funds.
- g) Taxation The charity has taken advantage of the various reliefs from taxation available to charities and no tax is payable on the charity's income.
h) Financial instruments
- The charity's financial assets and financial liabilities all qualify as basic financial instruments, as defined by FRS102. Creditors and debtors are measured at their expected settlement value (normally the amount of cash that the charity expects to pay or receive).
i) Exemption from preparing a cashflow statement
The charity has taken advantage of an exemption conferred by the Charities SORP and has not prepared a cash flow statement.
j) Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement ln preparing financial statements certain judgements, estimates and assumptions have to be made that affect the amounts recognised in the financial statements. The trustees consider the following to be significant:
-
i) The annual depreciation charge for property, plant and equipment is sensitive to changes in the estimates for useful economic life and residual value. These estimates are reassessed annually and, when necessary, adjusted to reflect current circumstances.
-
ii) The constructive obligation for grants payable is based upon an assessment of the obligation to continue making grants. Again this estimate is re-assessed annually and the obligation is adjusted to reflect current expectations.
