REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
Objects of the charity
The Trust seeks to demonstrate the Christian faith in action in Cambridge and the surrounding area by supporting those in our society who are disadvantaged or alone: the poor and needy, the sick and elderly, single parents, widows, orphans etc. and by supporting other organisations with similar objects.
Government
The policy and operating decisions of the charity rest with the Directors who meet regularly to monitor the activities of the Company.
Review of Activities
The charity has continued to focus on supporting individuals to live a Christian lifestyle and contribute to the wellbeing of those in their community through sharing the good news of Jesus and expressing God’s love through practical acts of service.
In planning the activities of the charity, the trustees have given consideration to the guidance on public benefit issued by the Charity Commission.
The Directors have pleasure in submitting the Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2024.
2022-2023 has been the sixth full year under the leadership of Mark and Jude Harbour as Senior Pastors. The church continues to have a thriving Sunday Morning Gathering at Parkside Community College three Sundays a month. We have a wonderful team of volunteers who make this happen, and it’s been a joy to welcome new people to our Sunday Gatherings and into our church community, as well as continuing to extend support to the wider community. The main focus of teaching throughout this year has been developing a culture of invitation, inviting others to experience God’s goodness, love, power, community and salvation.
The church has a vision to be a group of people who “Gather and Go”; we gather in God’s presence, are transformed by the Holy Spirit and we go to love and serve, in our communities and beyond. We look to see every person in the church reaching out to the various communities of which they are a part, in friendship and blessing. Our strategy is for those in the church to be so inspired by their experience of Jesus and of the church as a body serving the community that they seek to reach out individually to love and serve all whom they have contact with.
Our Sunday Vineyard Kids groups continue to thrive in our Firestarters and Blaze groups. Our Firestarters group also started having social events throughout the year, which they invited friends to. This year we also introduced “The Space”, a quiet room which anyone of any age who need a quiet space for a period can go to and can watch the live stream of our gathering.
We ran regular Student and Young Adults lunches for our undergraduate and postgraduate students and young adults. We love to see our young adults equipped for a life of mission and discipleship at university and work, and the opportunity for every student to find hope in Jesus and a home in a local church. Women’s and men’s Social nights also took place.

We continued to run our first Sunday of the month Community Sundays which aim to gather people in a more informal way than our Sunday morning gatherings at Parkside, making it an easy route into our church community. Community Sundays have included a games morning, wild cooking at Milton Country Park, walks, picnics, brunch, and a House of Games Quiz and Lamb Roast. We love that the events are not just great times for our church family but for the family, friends and colleagues who get invited. A couple in the church also ran a monthly Board games event.
Whenever there was a fifth Sunday in the month, we ran Church Has Left the Building where we provide a practical expression of God’s love for people. This has included support for our GrowKids project sorting donations, and continuing our Partnership with the Besom who connect us with families who need help with gardening or decorating.
It is important for Cambridge Vineyard Church to play its part in the wider church community and this year we continued to do that. Along with other Vineyard Churches in east Anglia we put on East Anglia Vineyard Worship nights, and members of the church participated in writing worship songs with people from other East Anglia Vineyard churches. Groups of our leaders attended the national Vineyard leaders gathering in April and Vineyard Worship Gathering in Jude. Together with Thetford Vineyard and Stour Valley Vineyard we ran a men’s retreat in Suffolk.
Our pastor Mark is a trustee for the ecumenical Hope Cambridge group and the Besom in Cambridge, and serves as a Vineyard UK & Ireland Coach, supporting leaders across the movement. Our pastor Jude serves as part of the team that runs Dreaming the Impossible, a national Youth Festival run by Vineyard. Mark and Jude also serve as part of Vineyard Successions team supporting pastoral transitions across the movement.
Cambridge Vineyard was also able to support running Pentecost in the Park 2023, when multiple Cambridge churches came to gather to worship and witness with speakers and worship bands on a stage on Parker’s Piece in Cambridge. It was wonderful to have a diversity of church traditions and ethnicities involved.
Other church activities throughout the year have been our regular mid-week Life Groups, and prayer walking around Cambridge centre every Thursday morning. We also held Upper Room Worship Nights. It was also a delight to hold dedications, baptisms and participate in the wedding of one of our church family. At Christmas we held a Beer and Carols event in a local pub, as well as our Carol Service and Pop-up Nativity at Parkside College. A training event was held for our worship and PA teams, and we continued to develop new leaders for our Life Groups and Worship bands.
The church continued to provide opportunities for people to express the Christian faith in action in Cambridge and the surrounding area, and beyond. We look to serve and support those in our society who are disadvantaged or alone. Our two main projects are GrowKids and Mum2Mum
GrowKids, started in April 2020, provides free, and accepts donations of, pre-loved clothes, toys, and baby equipment in good condition for ages 0- 10. We accept referrals regardless of background, income, or faith, from families within Cambridge and surrounding villages. We also seek to partner with families, to support them as they raise their children. Throughout the year we have received many generous donations of clothing and have been able to support the families who have been referred to us, many who have felt the financial impact of the cost-of-living crisis, partnering with Cambridge Council in their Cost-of-Living Events.
Page 3
GrowKids works in partnership with other organisations, including Cambridge Foodbank, and a GrowKids volunteer visits Foodbank’s Fairbite shop weekly to enable clients to access our services. GrowKids provide a weekly “Coffee and Connect” drop in for parents at a local community centre that provides a much-needed opportunity for parents to relax and chat with each other and our volunteer team whist their children play. In addition, we ran a regular Friday drop in at the Vineyard centre, the home of GrowKids, which as well as providing opportunity for people to donate and receive clothes, also provides much needed community to people. We were delighted to be able to extend our volunteer team for our Friday drop in. At Christmas and easter we ran parties for our GrowKids Families and continued to support refugees in the city.
Mum2Mum offers 1-to-1 support to mums aged 16-30. Mums are matched with a volunteer befriender who will meet with them on a 1-to-1 basis, at least once a fortnight. They will have the support of their befriender for 6 months to start with; however, this may be extended, 6 months at a time, for a total of up to 2 years. This year new Befrienders were trained, and our wonderful team of volunteers continued to mentor parents and raise the profile of Mum2Mum in the city.
In addition to running GrowKids and Mum2Mum Cambridge Vineyard seeks to give away at least 10% of the money it receives to support other projects. This year that has included The Besom in Cambridge, Cambridge Foodbank (for whom we do a monthly food collection), and Cambridge Youth for Christ.
We also continue to partner with the Dalitso Trust, a charity that supports health, leadership and families work in Malawi, and through them we also support Vineyard Churches in Malawi, both through financial support and the provision of training. Our pastor Mark was able to visit Malawi in July 2023 and deliver training for Dalitso and Malawi Vineyard Churches. We also continued to give financial support to Romanian International Children’s Foundation who seek see abandoned and orphaned children in Romania living in families and to reduce child abandonment.
Risk Statement
The Directors have reviewed the risks to which a small charity operating with few employees is exposed. Appropriate procedures are in place to identify, monitor and review these risks on a regular basis.
Financial Review
The accounts that follow show that the income for the year from all sources totalled £121,100 (£132,788 in 2023). Expenditure in the year was £143,792 (£121,056 in 2023). This resulted in a deficit for the year of £22,692 (surplus of £11,732 in 2023). Total funds at year end were £93,164 (£111,490 in 2023) which was unrestricted.
Reserves Policy
The Board of Directors have established a policy whereby unrestricted reserves held by the charity should be no less than £30,000 (which equates to about 3 months’ of unrestricted expenditure) so that the charity could continue to operate at a level sufficient to cover the charity in the event of unforeseen expenditure. At the year end, the charity held unrestricted net current assets of £93,164 and the charity is complying with its reserves policy.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
1 Statutory Information
The charity is a charitable company limited by guarantee and is incorporated in the United Kingdom. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company 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"), with the Companies Act 2006 and with the Charities Act 2011. The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity as set out in FRS 102.
The principles adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below.
a) Going concern
The trustees (who are the charitable company's directors for the purposes of company law) 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.
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:
-
i) 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.
-
ii) Donated facilities, services and goods. Goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries are recognised as income when receivable at fair value (being an estimate of the amount it would cost to purchase those items). Facilities, services and goods donated for the charity's own use are recognised as income when receivable at their value to the charity.
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.
When donated goods, services and facilities are distributed or consumed, an expense in respect of those items is included in the Statement of Financial Activities. At the year end any goods that have not been distributed or consumed are recognised as stock; donated fixed assets are capitalised.
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.
The cost of raising funds is not significant and has not been separately disclosed.
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.

2 Accounting Policies (continued)
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.
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, fixtires, fittings and equipment are depreciated over 3 years.
f) Stocks
Stocks of donated items held for distribution to beneficiaries are measured at fair value.
g) 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.
h) Taxation
The company is a registered charity; it has taken advantage of the various reliefs from taxation available to charities and no tax is payable on the charity's income.
i) Financial instruments The charity's financial assets and financial liabilities all qualify as basic financial instruments, as defined by FRS102. Except for loans, creditors and debtors are measured at their expected settlement value (normally the amount of cash that the charity expects to pay or receive). The charity recognises liabilities for the principal of those loans that remains outstanding at the year end (i.e. the liabilities exclude any interest chargeable on the loans in future years).
j) 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.
k) Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement
The trustees do not consider that there are any material sources of estimation or uncertainty at the balance sheet date that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying values of assets and liabilities in the next reporting period.
