Training

Following the recent lockdown, our training courses had to resort to online sessions, while the Level 2 start date was postponed until we could re-open and commence face-to-face teaching. All the courses are now pleased to be back in the centre and the Level 3 and Level 4 are working towards ending, with students already enrolling on the September start of new Level 3 and Level 4 courses. CPCAB have been excellent, working with us to support all the students over the last year. Level 4 students have been given extensions to complete their clinical practice hours. The tutors, training and admin staff have done a fantastic job over what has been a very challenging year.

One of the Level 3 tutors has handed in their notice and will be leaving at the end of this course, and we have had an enquiry from someone interested in joining the training team.

Centre

All the staff have been incredible in keeping the centre running over the last 12 months, particular Lee Crossland for sorting all the furlough and job retention funding for staff.

Thanks to Lee and Delores Croasdell for their efforts in accessing various grants which has enabled us to stay afloat and on the right side financially.

It is lovely to be re-opening again and having clients, students and room hirers starting to return to use the premises.

We have managed to get some work done on the roof to stop the damp in Emmaus and my room, Shalom. We still need to sort out the roof over the library area, as this has also been leaking recently, this has been looked at and hopefully will be rectified in the near future.

Management

Maggie Pereira is stepping down from her Counselling Admin role and we have had three applicants for the job, who we will be interviewing at the end of May.

We have begun to get the new volunteers, who were due to join the office team before lockdown, in for their inductions and they are due to start the roles over the next few weeks.

Shop

The shop had to be closed throughout the 3 lockdowns, and the staff had done a sterling job preparing for the various re-opening’s when they were allowed to. It has raised really good amounts for the centre when they have been able to open, with increased takings. All were very pleased to be back in the shop.

We had so many donations in the past year, both at the shop and at the centre, that we have had to use the garage to store some of the stock for the time being so it can be taken down when they have space to accommodate more goods.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE DIRECTORS OF UNITED CHURCHES HEALING MINISTRY LIMITED

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the company for the year ended 30[th ] April 2021 set out on pages 6 to 12.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity 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 requirement 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 company’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

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 that in any material respect:

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 to be part of an independent examination: or

4. 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 (FRS102)]

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 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30[th] APRIL 2021

1 Accounting policies

The principal accounting policies are summarised below. The accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout the year.

a) Basis of preparation

• The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102 and the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities SORP FRS 102 and the Companies Act 2006 with certain modifications to reflect the non-profit making activities of the company.

b) Incoming resources

• All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy.

However, any income received during a financial year intended by the payer for use in funding expenditure of some future financial year is carried forward as deferred income until the year of intended use is reached.

The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:

Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and sponsorships and is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable. Grants, where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.

Investment income is included when receivable.

• The charity received government grants in respect of Job Retention Scheme and covid support grants. Income from government and other grants are recognised at fair value when the charity has entitlement after any performance conditions have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. If entitlement is not met then these amounts are deferred.

• c) Expenditure on charitable activities

• All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category.

• Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

d) Fixed assets and depreciation

Fixed assets are included in the financial statements at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the following bases to write down the cost of the assets over their expected useful lives:

Land and buildings - 2% on cost Fixtures and equipment - 20% on cost
