FULLWORD CHURCH (FOR THE NATIONS)
TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT YEAR ENDED 31[st] December 2020
The trustees present their report and accounts for the period ended 31[st] December 2020as below:
Principal activities
The Fullword Church (For the Nations) is an independent and interdenominational Bible Church with Pastor Olalekan Akinleye as the presiding Pastor.
The charity's principal activity during the year continued to be faith activities, education, training, and help for children, young people, marriages and the elderlies.
Review of the current year
The year 2020 was a good year for the Church though heavily disrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic. Millions died all over the world but the Lord was gracious to us in Fullword Church – we lost none. The Church went online in executing her ministry towards members and families in the Church. This left the Church members far apart for the major part of 2020. Very few members and leaders backslided while some new members joined.
We are grateful to God for all the resources. He gave us as a Church, well treasured are our faithful volunteers and committed members. Our pastoral team remains strong to the glory of God.
The Coming Year:
The Church's strategic focus for 2020 is to really shake off the impact of the pandemic and rebuild the Church.
We will strive to review and refine our ministry’s activities so as to remain a sound Bible Church that we are known for.
Year 2021 is to be people focused and effort will be made to upgrade the main Church Auditorium in Barking Road.

TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT (continued) YEAR ENDED 31[st] December 2020
RESPONSIBLITIES OF THE TRUSTEES
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
The law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom, General Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standard and applicable law). The financial statements are required by law to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the surplus or deficit for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
prepare the financial statements on the 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 which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 1993, The Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provision of the trust deed.
The trustees 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.
The trustees who served during the year were as follows:
Ms Tracey Francis Chair Mr Philip Osho Secretary Mr Femi Sholagbade Treasurer Mr Fredrick Ayeyemi Trustees
This report was approved by the board on 09[th] June2021.

FULLWORD CHURCH (FOR THE NATIONS)
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT YEAR ENDED 31[st] December 2020
RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER
The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts (under section 43 of the Act);
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 43(7) (b) of the Act); and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
BASIS OF THE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity 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 you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S STATEMENT
In the course of 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 ensure that:
-
proper accounting records are kept (in accordance with section 41 of the 1993 Act); and
-
accounts are prepared which agree with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 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.
