THE RAINBOW OF HOPE/pARADISE RUN ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 15 OCTOBER 2025 CHAIRMAN'S REPORT It has been a very hard year. Due to significant delays wlth our old building at 23-25 Broadway and its ongoing restoration, we have lost some of our valuable contacts. With no one to work in the office and a lack of dedicated volunteers willing to oversee all the different parts of the work, the Situation has been difficult. We were very aware that we needed more younger people to carry on the work of the charity, as we, the Trustees, are getting older now and, with some health i55ue5, are finding the work heavy. This being the case, we were 50 very grateful that, in God's mercy, he brought us Paul Thomas, who consented to be a Trustee in our next financial year and, with his vast experience in IT & Business and faith, 15 an enormous a55et to the Charity. Also, Heather Lewis has joined us, another very gifted and efficient worker. who has already made a big impact. As our help base increases, we need to get back into speaking at churches, as we did beftire, to make people aware of the needs. We are finding so many people coming into Rainbow of Hope now to take drugs, which is an increasing probletn. That being the case, we are very aware that much more dedicated intercessory prayer is needed. It Is very easy to be busy, but without real, heartfelt, Spirit- led prayer, nothing changes. We need a breakthrough I Some years ago, 4 people came to faith here at Rainbow and were actually baptised in our old building. God has not changed. The gospel is still as powerful. We need to seek God. The onus is on us. A few months ago, we started a meeting with all the volunteers together, where there was freedom to speak from the heart about all aspects of the work at Rainbow. This was followed by a lovely buffet meal. We will continue with these meedngs every 3 months. We are most grateful to Veronica Camilleri for all her dedicated financial work for the charity over many years, and Paul has now found someone to take on this vital work. We are living in hard times in the world today, and we need God more than we have ever needed Him. RESULTS FOR 2025 Income- Overall decrease over previous year. Expendlture- Overdll increase over previous year, thi5 was mainly due to the ntaI costs between the two buildings, at 23-25 Broadway and 30-33 Broadway. The Rainbow of Hope Centre 15 currently located at 30-33 BadWay1 Roath, Cardiff CF24 IQE.
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORTTO THE TRUSTEES OF THE RAINBOW OF HOPE/PARADISE RUN I report on the accounts of the Rainbow of Hope (charity number 1088856} for the year ended 15 October 2025 which are Set out in page 4. Respettive Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit 15 not required for thi5 year under Section 144121 of the Charities Act 2011, and that an independent examination 15 needed. It is my responsibility to: examine the accounts under 145 of the 2011 Charities Act: to follow the procedure laid down in the general Directions given by the Charlty Commission under the section 145151 Ibl of the 2011 Charities Act- and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. Basis of Independent Examlner's Report My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of accounts presented with those records, and seeking explanation from 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 connectlon with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Charities Act- and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the account requirements of the Charitres Act have not been met,. or 2. to which in my opinion, attentfon should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the Financial Statements to be reached.
