ST PETER'S CANARY WHARF TRUST

TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT (INCORPORATING DIRECTORS' REPORT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

The trustees, who are the charity's directors for the purposes of company law, have pleasure in submitting the Report and Accounts for the year.

Objects of the charity

The charity is a charitable company registered with the Charities Commission – charity number: 1096848 and is governed by its memorandum and articles of association. The objects of the charity, as set out in the governing document are the advancement of the Christian Faith in London, England and particularly in the Canary Wharf estate within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. "The Christian Faith" is defined within the Articles of Association as the fundamental truths of Christianity revealed in Scripture, including those confirmed by the church's historic catholic creeds and the Thirty Nine Articles of Religion of the Church of England.

Summary of the charity's main activities

To further the above objects and vision, the charity's main activities has been the provision of a meeting place for a Christian workplace ministry within the Canary Wharf complex in London and a Sunday church for those living in the wider Docklands area.

St Peter's Barge is in the first place a Christian centre for the 120,000 working in Canary Wharf. It aims to encourage and equip Christians who work in the Wharf to live out their faith in the workplace, and to provide a relaxed and unpressured environment for those who are not Christian to investigate the claims of Jesus Christ.

There are weekly lunchtime Bible talks, bible study groups, and a course for enquirers, as well as opportunities to meet to talk one-to-one. St Peter's Barge also holds special guest events to enable Christians in Canary Wharf to invite their friends to hear the Christian good news, ask questions and discuss. The location and venue make it especially attractive for those who may be put off by a more traditional church.

In addition to the midweek work there is a Sunday congregation focused on reaching out to friends and the community in this thriving and ever-developing part of London. The Sunday church has a congregation of about 100 adults and 30 children meeting at church services on Sunday mornings, and for groups and activities during the week. Income is raised through the Company in order to fund this work.

In planning the activities the Trustees have applied the guidance on public benefit issued by the Charity Commission.

Structure, Governance and Management

Responsibility for setting policy and for determining the parameters within which the charity should operate rests with the trustees who monitor the activities of the charity. Responsibility for the day to day operation of the charity has been delegated to a senior management team led by Rev M Nodder. New trustees are recruited and appointed by the existing trustees, by a majority vote.

3

Safeguarding

With regard to the trustee’s obligations to safeguard children and vulnerable adults, they confirm that they have complied with their duties in accordance with the charity’s safeguarding policy.

Financial review

During the year income increased by £79,406 to £402,967, and expenditure increased by £38,656 to £388,340. As a result total funds for the year increased by £14,627 to £283,808 and the charity's net assets increased to the same figure. Net current assets increased by £17,912 to £190,606.

Reserves policy

The trustees have determined that the charity should aim to hold unrestricted cash of no less than £97,466 (which equates to about 3 months' of unrestricted expenditure) so that the charity could continue to operate should income and / or expenditure vary adversely. At the year end, the charity held unrestricted cash of £215,310 and the charity is complying with its reserves policy.

Plans for the future

Rev Marcus Nodder who was Senior Minister at St Peter’s Barge from its establishment in 2004 has resigned from the role after 21 years’ faithful service. He will begin as Vicar of All Souls Church, Eastbourne in September 2025 and his last Sunday at St Peter’s Barge was in July 2025. Marcus Nodder was warmly thanked for his excellent service to St Peter’s Barge by the Trustees and Elders who are now actively engaged in recruiting a new Senior Minister. In the interim period, the Assistant Minister Rev Callum Ellwood, the Lay Elders and Women’s Worker Fiona Robb are continuing to lead the ministry, supported by volunteer Deacons. The intention is to continue following the pattern of mid-week and Sunday ministry established under Marcus Nodder during the “Inter-Regnum” period and for a new Senior Minister to be appointed in 2025 to begin work in early 2026.

Key risks and uncertainties

The charity is exposed to various risks - be they operational, financial or reputational. The trustees review the charity's activities to identify significant risks and, where possible, they take appropriate measures to mitigate those risks.

4

Responsibilities of trustees under company law

The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charitable company as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including income and expenditure, for the financial year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

  1. select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

  2. observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

  3. make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

  4. state whether the applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures

disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and

  1. prepare the financial statements on a 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 that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Approval

This report, which has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies, was approved by the trustees and signed on their behalf by:

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT

TO THE TRUSTEES OF

ST PETER'S CANARY WHARF TRUST ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2024 on pages 7 to 18 following, which have been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies set out on pages 9 to 10.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity’s trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’).

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner’s statement

Since the Company’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of The Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

  3. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 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.

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 from donations includes:

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.

Income from charitable activities represents income receivable from goods, services and facilities supplied in furtherance of the charity's charitable objects. It includes income from church retreats and other activities.

Investment income represents income generated by the charity's assets and includes income from bank interest.

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.

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.

9

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 £500 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 the following rates of depreciation are charged:

Barge Flat 60 years
Barge inc. refurbishment 20 years
Fixtures, fittings and equipment 5 years

f) Leased assets Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the charity are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term (unless another systematic basis is more representative of use).

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) 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.

j) Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement The annual depreciation charge for property, plant and equipment is sensitive to changes in the estimates for useful economic life and residual value. These estimates are reassessed annually and, when necessary, adjusted to reflect current circumstances.

k) 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).

The Barge, used as a meeting place for Christian ministry, has now been fully depreciated. However, the trustees believe that it is likely to have a realisable value in the region of £300,000. However, the trustees have no current plans to do so.

In September 2021 the Trustees purchased a property on behalf of St Peter's Canary Wharf Trust for £385,000 for the purpose of providing accommodation for a Staff member. The property was purchased through cash held by St Peter's (£57k), donations (£50k including gift aid), a fixed rate and equity loan with Mission Housing (total £178K) and a term loan facility agreement with Reliance Bank (£100K).

No interest is payable on the Great St Helens Trust loan and there is no repayment date set. The amount will be repaid if, and only if the trustees are of the view, that there are sufficient reserves to meet the other obligations of the Trust and to effectively fulfil the objectives of the Trust.

The Barge has 2 loans with Mission Housing which were drawn down on 30th September 2021 to contribute to the purchase of the Barge flat:

Loan 1: £90,000 equity loan, 1% annual charge.

Loan 2: £88,000 fixed rate loan, of which £50,000 incur monthly interest expenses at annual interest rates of 2.0%. The rest is interest-free.

Interest and Charges only are being paid on the loans; the loan principals have various repayment dates, but the majority falls due for repayment in June 2026 for equity loans and February 2026 when the loans will need to be re-financed. Both loans with Mission Housing are secured by a second ranking legal charge against the property (with the first ranking legal charge held by Reliance Bank).

The secured term loan facility with Reliance Bank of £100,000 was drawn down on 29th September 2021 to contribute to the purchase of the Barge flat. The loan is secured by a first ranking legal charge against the property. The facility has an annual interest rate of 3% above the base rate. The loan is being repaid in monthly instalments, with the capital being amortised over a 25 year schedule. On 1st December 2024, the interest rate was 8.25%.
