## **RCCG DOMINION PARISH, HOUNSLOW Trustees Report (continued) for the ear ended 31[st] December 2024 y**
## **Organisation Structure and Decision Making**
The Redeemed Christian Church of God Dominion (hereafter referred to as the charity) is structured in a manner that allows the Trustees to meet as required to manage its affairs. The Pastor in Charge is delegated to manage the day-to-day administration of the church in collaboration with other ministers and volunteers. The Trustees hold final responsibility for all the decisions regarding allocation of funds and activities.
## **Recruitment and Appointment of Trustees**
The Trust began with the appointment of the “first Trustees” and subsequently, Trustees are appointed and or co-opted under the terms of the trust deed.
## **Induction and Training of New Trustees**
The induction process for a newly appointed Trustee comprises an initial meeting with the Chair and other Trustees, followed by short meetings with the Pastor in Charge on the powers and responsibilities of the Trustees.
## **Risk Management**
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those related to operations and finances of the charity, and the specific risks currently posed by Covid19. Though the period under review falls outside the times of increased risk by Covid-19 we have however adjusted our systems and practices to comply with the government guidelines on the pandemic; We are therefore satisfied that we have enough systems in place to mitigate our exposures to the present and emerging risks.
## **Grant Making Policy**
The Charity collaborates with other charities and missions that share its objective of the advancement of the Christian faith and relief of poverty. This includes but not limited to RCCG Central Office, World Evangelism Mission, and Festival of Life etc. It also makes occasional grants to congregational members who are in need in line with its objective of poverty relief.
## **Investment Policy**
The Charity currently has its own property that it uses for its activities; and will continue to explore other possible investment opportunities. All funds are retained in Banks and Building Societies, and as far as possible in interest bearing accounts.
## **Reserves Policy**
The Trustees’ policy is to have unrestricted and uncommitted funds (free reserves) to cover 4- 6 months of resources expended which equals to £29,000 to £44,000 in general funds. This is estimated to be sufficient to run the affairs of the Charity in the event of a significant drop in funding. It would obviously be necessary to then consider how the funding would be replaced or activities changed. The present free reserve is within the range, but the Trustees are continuing to seek additional unrestricted funds to build up its reserve.
## **Principal Funding**
Funding has been provided mainly through tithes and offerings by church members and through gift aid. Pledges are also taken for specific projects.

## **RCCG DOMINION PARISH, HOUNSLOW Trustees Report (continued) for the ear ended 31[st] December 2024 y**
## **Key Objectives and Activities**
At the core of the charity’s objectives are:
1. The advancement of the Christian faith worldwide
2. Alleviation of poverty.
3. To positively impact and benefit the community we operate in and the general public.
It is in line with the above objectives that the Charity carried out the following activities during the year under review i.e. January to December 2024.
The Charity carried on with hybrid Sunday services with a combination in-person service at Dominion parish Building and simultaneously online reaching virtual audience.
Every Tuesday evening, a prayer meeting was held online via zoom.
On Wednesday evenings, a bible study program (digging deep) was held online via zoom. Also, every Thursday an interactive house fellowship meeting was held via zoom. Every last Friday of each month a holy communion/ night vigil service was held via zoom as well as in person attendance.
## **Special programmes held in the year 2024 includes:**
- The Exalt the King (ETK) programme which was held in March via zoom as well as in person attendance.
- The Excellent Men Conference was held in a weekend away location for all men within the parish
- The Dominion Parish Women conference was held in September as a breakfast meeting in an external location.
- Dominion Parish’s end of year fasting and prayers took place between the last week in November and the first week in December 2024 to cater for the peoples spiritual, physical and emotional wellbeing. On the 3[rd] Friday, of December 2024 a special Christmas variety night/Christmas Carol service was held in the parish. Members of other parishes were also invited to attend.
In all the above programmes, there is a praise and worship section and a thorough exposition into the word of God is shared with all references and emphasis from the bible. Light Refreshments is usually available in all services in house.
Throughout the year we also held a weekly Children’s session every Sunday mornings that provided children in the church the forum to interact and bond with each other in a friendly
5
## **RCCG DOMINION PARISH, HOUNSLOW Trustees Report (continued) for the ear ended 31[st] December 2024 y**
and loving atmosphere. Also very importantly the word of God is taught in an easily understandable manner to the children.
A special luncheon programme was held for all new members on the second Sunday of December who joined within the year(s). In this programme, they are introduced to all activities in the church and encouraged to join any preferred department of their choice. Each family in Dominion Parish received a Christmas present from the church in the year 2024.
All programs are open to all members and the wider community, and they are provided freely in line with the Trusts’ strides to be of benefit to the whole community it serves.
In the year 2024 as well as all previous years, Dominion parish supported the World Evangelical Mission of the Redeemed Christian Church of God monthly with 20% of all collections financially as well as other Redeem Projects and other projects from other churches
Dominion Parish supported some parishes with rent and building projects financially as well as supported bereaved members with financial assistance within and outside the province. Dominion Parish has a good continuous welfare plan which supports members. .
The Pastorate are always available to provide all forms of support as required to all members of the church within their capacity.
## **Volunteers**
The Charity is currently blessed with an army of committed volunteers who give their time and skills freely to support every of its program. A conservative estimate would place the total hours provided freely by these volunteers at over 3000 hours each year which would exceed £30,000 if paid at a lowly £10 per hour.
## **Future Development and Plans**
The charity continues to explore various ways of spreading the gospel of Christ in an effective manner. The charity is also looking to grow in membership and continue to develop its members to make life-changing impact in society.
It will also continue to look out for a larger facility as it is currently outgrowing its present building. The charity’s future plan will also focus on the development and wellbeing of members and the community. The charitable function of the organisation will be intensified during the coming years.
Training will be offered to members and the community in basic financial management and how to develop financial freedom. Education will also be offered on health and life insurance. Some members, who are professional in this area, have shown interest to offer their services and advice to members and the community.
6
## **RCCG DOMINION PARISH, HOUNSLOW Trustees Report (continued) for the ear ended 31[st] December 2024 y**
The charity will also look at educating the community on healthy eating and mental health education. Emphasis will be placed on the spiritual development of members. Training will be given on how to live a Godly life, and how to be a better citizen of the United Kingdom. In addition, there will be career talks arranged for the children at the charity, to expose them to the various career options available to them.
## **Internal Controls and the Mitigation of Major Risks**
The Trustees have put proper accounting procedures in place to ensure good financial practices are adopted for all transactions. They also have in place insurance for the Church property and contents against damages and fire which is reviewed each year.
## **Independent Examiner**
The Trustees appointed Jilon Solution Ltd as the Charity's Examiner to review its annual accounts for the period ended 31 December 2024.
## **Review of Transactions and Financial Position**
During 2024 income of £135,723 was received up on £95,979 in the previous year. Cash in hand and at Bank amounted to £32,140 and Fixed Assets at Net Book Value remained at £545,580 for the Charity this year.
The value of the RCCG Dominion Parish, Hounslow’s net assets as at 31st December 2024 was £545,580.
## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES**
The Charity Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales 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.

## **RCCG DOMINION PARISH, HOUNSLOW Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees for the ear ended 31st December 2024 y**
I report to the Trustees of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) Dominion Parish, Hounslow on the accounts for the year ended 31st December 2024 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, and the related notes to the accounts as set out on pages 12 to 19.
## **Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner**
The Trustees of the charity are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Charity’s Trustee consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act), and that an independent examination is required.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
- Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act.
- Follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under
- • section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act) and
- To state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **Basis of Independent Examiner’s Report**
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 Statement**
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
- 1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the Trustees have not met the requirements:
- to keep proper accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act 2006; and
- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act; or
- 2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

**RCCG DOMINION PARISH, HOUNSLOW Notes to The Financial Statements for the year ended 31st December 2024**
## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## **Incoming Resources**
## _Recognition of Incoming Resources_
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when:
- the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
- the Trustees are virtually certain they will receive the resources; and
- the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
## _Incoming Resources with related expenditure_
Where incoming resources have related expenditure (as with fundraising or contract income) the incoming resource 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_
Incoming resources 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 actually 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 incoming resources when receivable.
## _Donated Services and Facilities_
These are only included in incoming resources (with an equivalent amount in resources expended) 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 if provided Is described in the Trustees' annual report.
## _Designated funds_
Designated funds are allocated out of unrestricted funds by the Trustees for specific purposes. The use of such funds is at the Trustees’ discretion. There were no designated funds during the year.
## _Investment Income_
This is included in the accounts when receivable.
12
## **RCCG DOMINION PARISH, HOUNSLOW Notes to The Financial Statements (continued) for the year ended 31st December 2024**
## **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.
## _Grants with performance conditions_
Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SOFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output.
## _Grants payable without performance conditions_
These are only recognised in the accounts when a commitment has been made and there are no conditions to be met relating to a grant which remain in control of the charity.
## _Support Costs_
Support costs Include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of the resources, e.g. allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
## _Changes in Accounting policies and previous accounts_
There has been no change to the accounting policies (variation rules and methods of accounting) since last year, and no changes to the previous accounts.
## _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 £1,000. 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. An overall rate of 25% is applied per annum for computers and equipment and furniture and fittings are depreciated over three years.
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.
## **Basis of preparation:**
The financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis convention (as modified to include the revaluation of investments) in accordance with the Charities Act 2011, "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" (SORP 2015), applicable accounting standards and the Companies Act
13
## **RCCG DOMINION PARISH, HOUNSLOW Notes to The Financial Statements (continued) for the year ended 31st December 2024**
2006. The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis. The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
