As part of the Church's commitment to those who are in need, hardship or distress, as well as to
provide education in personal financial management and wellbeing, the Church continues to support a
Foodbank programme which has expanded during the year. As well as operating regularly from five
distribution centres, the Foodbank provides food for lunches during the school holidays for children in
receipt of free school meals. During the year a practical course to help people eat well whilst spending
less on food was continued. The Church also supports a CAB Adviser to be present at Foodbank
sessions to provide practical advice on accessing benefits and other services.
The Church also operates a ministry called Just a Helping Hand which provides support to homeless
individuals in the local area. Durig the year a support group for Ukrainian refugees has continued to
operate, along with language tuition and access to advice.
The Church's property in Chertsey, known as The Beacon, continues to be much used. The coffee
shop located on the ground floor of the building is also used for Sunday ser+iices. Weekday activities of
the church take place on the first floor of the building part of which is also occasionally hired out. Two
limited companies have been created each having 1000k of the shares owned by Community Life Trust.
The companies are Community Life Properties Limited (CLPL) which purchased, developed and
maintains the property and Beacon Hospitality SeNices Limited (BHSL) which operates the coffee
shop.
The coffee shop continues to run successfully with increased custom and impact on the community.
Financial Revlew
The Church is financially dependent on the voluntary support of its members and the wider community.
Total voluntary income receipts for the year amounted to £414,804, to which were added £121,730 in
grants, £44,075 income tax refund, £12,012 from interest and other income, and £200,398 from gifts in
kind. Expenditure amounted to £682,401 resulting in a surplus of £110.618.
During the year the Church made a further long term loan of £3,000 to BHSL. The total of outstanding
long term loans in both CLPL and BHSL is £211,180.
The reserves at the end of the year were £1,938,340 of which £473,301 were restricted funds and
£1,465,039 were unrestricted funds, Of these funds £455,855 is invested in fixed assets and £837,880
is invested in CLPL and BHSL. The remaining unrastricted reserves are £171,304.
The reserves policy for unrestricted funds is to retain sufficient reserves,.
To ensure that the Church has sufficient funds to meet its financial commitments.
To demonstrate that the Church is sustainable into the future.
To ensure that the Church is able to manage future unforeseen financial difficulties.
To ensure that excessive funds are not held without any identifiable reason or purpose.
Restricted funds may be held to be used for the restricted purpose for which they were given.
The trustees have reviewed the level of reserves and consider that they are in line with the reserves
policy and are adequate to provide for the ongoing work of the Church. In the light of this review, the
trustees are of the view that the Church is a going concern.
In addition to financial contributions, the Church is also reliant on the voluntary donation of time by
members to enable the various activities of the Church to take place. For the successful running of the
Foodbank a large number of volunteers come from other churches and the community.

leadership of the Church. As such they are already aware of the objectives and activities of the
Church, All trustees seek to keep abreast of relevant legislation and good practice. To this end they
receive relevant advice from the Church's independent examiners and from Stewardship Services.

The pay and remuneration of key management personnel is decided by the trustees (excluding any
employed trustee) taking into account general national pay settlements and the financial resources
available.
Risk management
The Church has operated a "Safe From Harm. child protection and vulnerable adults policy for a
number of years.This policy was reviewed and updated during the year to keep it in line with latest
legislation and good practice.
A formal risk management process is in place and systems have been established to manage the risks
identified.
Post balance sheet developments
Following initial renovation work by Church members, plans were drawn up and submitted to the local
authority. Planning Permission and Listed Building Consent have now been received.
Applications are being submitted to grant-giving organisations seeking finance to support the project.
As the property has remained unoccupied for a number of years, a significant amount of renovation will
be required.
