WORLD RESTORATION MINISTRIES (RESTORATION CHAPEL INTERNATIONAL) STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND TRUSTEES REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2022

Development and Achievements in the period

Our community mission outreach has made a significant impact, touching thousands with literature, refreshments, and sustenance. Notably, we were present at the public viewing of the Queen, assisting those in line and earning media coverage from the BBC. Our dedicated team also penetrated four unique communities, delivering on our mission multiple times with drinks, cookies, and enlightening literature. The grateful response we've received underlines our achievement and ongoing commitment.

Youth Initiative

Our youth initiative has successfully formed an orchestra, bolstering engagement and lending festive cheer during Esther and Christmas. Honored at the Southwark Faith Community Awards Night for our contributions, we continue to host Bible studies and leadership training. We're eagerly planning a larger music and orchestra initiative for local youth and preparing to launch a new dedicated Youth Church, furthering our commitment to the community's future.

Bible Class

Our virtual Bible classes are now transcending boundaries, effectively fulfilling our mission's agenda by touching a broader audience. These virtual platforms allow us to connect with individuals facing mental health challenges and those with physical disabilities, who might otherwise be unable to partake in our weekly services. These online classes provide spiritual and emotional nourishment, offering hope and encouragement right to their doorsteps. As we navigate this digital landscape, we anticipate enhancing our efforts further, ensuring everyone, irrespective of their circumstance, feels included and uplifted.

Publications

Continuing our dedicated efforts, we've developed and printed materials for leadership training, Bible studies, and small group fellowships, informed by surveys from our church members and the wider public. These resources have proven to be valuable tools, promoting spiritual growth and community development, and continue to positively impact the recipients.

The Pastoral Ministry engaged in hospital & home visits, baby dedication, and pastoral counselling sessions. There were:

  1. Weddings 03 2. Baby Dedication and Confirmation 05 3. Couples meetings 02 4. Premarital Counselling 05 5. Post marital Counselling 07 6. Virtual Prayer support 2 times a day

Outreach work

The work of the charity in using the gospel and self-development methodologies to reach people in its immediate communities and in other countries where the lives of people have been distressed in many ways, was strongly maintained in the year under review – at similar levels to prior years. We have continued to expand our community reach, using the media and have simultaneously worked tirelessly to consolidate our prior year gains with the youth, young adults, single parents, and especially our children’s ministry which has continuously grown with more demands.

WORLD RESTORATION MINISTRIES (RESTORATION CHAPEL INTERNATIONAL) STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND TRUSTEES REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2022

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(A) Basis of Preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015) – (Charities SORP), with FRS 102 and with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.

In preparing the financial statements the charity has applied FRS 102 (March 2018) and the amendments to the Charities SORP set out in Update Bulletin 2 (issued in October 2018) before their effective date of periods commencing 1 January 2019.

The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.

(B) Going Concern

The financial statements are prepared, on a going concern basis. The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern.

(C) Reconciliation with previous Generally Accepted Accounting Practice

Transitional arrangements for the charity presenting this financial statement under FRS 102 for the first time had been incorporated and that, no comparative items were needed. No restatements nor reconciliations were required.

(D) Fund Accounting

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity. The charity maintains only a general unrestricted fund, which represents funds that are expendable at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the objects of the charity. Such funds may be held in order to finance both working capital and capital investment.

(E)

Income

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably.

11

WORLD RESTORATION MINISTRIES (RESTORATION CHAPEL INTERNATIONAL) STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND TRUSTEES REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2022

Where income has related expenditure (as with fundraising or contract income), the income and related expenditure are reported gross in the Statement of Financial Activities.

Donations, grants, and gifts are recognised when receivable. In the event that a donation is subject to fulfilling performance conditions before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until it is probable that those conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period. Income from Gift Aid tax reclaims is recognised for any donations with relevant Gift Aid certificates recognised in income for the year. Any amounts of Gift Aid not received by the year-end are accounted for in income and accrued income in debtors.

Income received in advance for a future fundraising event or for a grant received relating to the following year are deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

Interest on deposit funds held is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity which is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

Sponsorship from events, fundraising and events registration fees are recognised in income when the event takes place.

(F) Donated Goods and Services

Donated services or facilities are recognised when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. There were no donated goods and services recognised during the year.

(G) Expenditure and Irrecoverable VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and analysed based on the alternative approach for smaller charities - nature of the expenditure.

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

(H) Volunteers

The value of the services provided by volunteers is not incorporated into these financial statements.

(I) Fixed Assets and Depreciation

Tangible fixed assets for use by the charity are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £500. They are valued at cost or a reasonable value on receipt.

12

WORLD RESTORATION MINISTRIES (RESTORATION CHAPEL INTERNATIONAL) STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND TRUSTEES REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2022

Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets over their estimated useful economic lives.

Church and Office equipment at 25% straight line basis.

The need for any impairment of a fixed asset write-down is considered if there is concern over the carrying value of an asset and is assess by comparing that carrying value against the value in use or realisable value of the asset when appropriate.

(J) Cash at Bank and In Hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

(K) Creditors

Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

(l) Taxation

The charitable company is exempt from income and corporation tax to the extent that its income and gains are applicable to charitable purpose only. Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the charity and is, therefore, included in the costs in the Statement of Financial Activities.
