## Report of the Directors
## **A.** Structure, Governance & Management
## **Governing Document**
The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 30 April 2003 and registered as a charity on 13 June 2003. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association that established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. In the event of the company being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £10.
## **Recruitment and Appointment of Directors / Trustees**
The directors of the charitable company are the charity trustees and are the members of the company. They are responsible for investing and expending the funds of the charity in such manner as they shall consider most beneficial for the achievement of the objects. They enter into contracts on behalf of the charity. They are responsible for the proper management and administration of the charitable company in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles of Association.
The trustees are not subject to retirement by rotation and may serve until they retire or are removed in accordance with the Articles of Association. Appointments are made by members of the company at its Annual General Meeting or at other times by ordinary resolution. Trustees are recruited for their ability to manage the charity in accordance with the provisions of the Memorandum and Articles of Association and in furtherance of its objects and in so doing they shall have full and proper regard to the spiritual leadership of the church.
The present trustees have a variety of backgrounds and skills and the board seeks to maintain an appropriate range of skills to match the tasks undertaken by the board. Trustees must be familiar with the activities of the charity and be in sympathy with them. Trustees are therefore likely to come from within the Vineyard movement. Potential trustees are identified by the existing trustees, discussed with the other trustees then approached to check their availability. Trustees must subscribe to the Statement of Beliefs set out in the schedule to the articles.
Training of Trustees will be on an ongoing basis through attendance of trustee meetings and instruction and guidance from existing trustees. New trustees will be encouraged to seek outside training from all sources available to further their understanding of the role they take on and to enhance their skills for not only theirs but also the Charity’s benefit.
## **Risk Analysis**
The directors have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and where necessary have taken steps to minimise such risks. The Trustees have undertaken a Risk Analysis of our operations and each area will be subject to regular review. A Risk policy document is held by the Pastor and copied to the Trustees. Risk assessment is undertaken at each quarterly Trustees Meeting on an ongoing basis, reviewing any changes in the format required.
Child protection issues are covered by a policy and guidelines document. Disclosure Barring Service checks are completed for all who work with children and advice is accessible from CCPAS. The Charity Trustees are similarly subjected to regular DBS checks.
Procedures are in place to ensure compliance with Health & Safety issues covering staff, volunteers and visitors. A key element in the management of financial risk is the setting of a reserves policy and its regular review by trustees

## **B.** Objectives and Activities
## **Objectives of the Charitable Company**
The objectives of the charitable company are:
- to advance the Christian faith in accordance with the Statement of Beliefs;
- to advance religious or secular education;
- to relieve persons who are in conditions of need, hardship or who are aged or sick and to relieve distress.
## **Activities - How our activities provide a public benefit**
The Charity carries out a wide range of activities in pursuance of its charitable aims. The previous year’s activities had been hampered by both Covid government restrictions and fears of the public and congregation. Activities were slow to start again but gathered pace as the year progressed.
Activities through the year were still aimed at introducing more people to Jesus, deepening their relationship and knowledge of him and providing support and encouragement to those in need. Sunday morning gatherings were back to meeting in person. Zoom remained as an option for those people who required it.
Our Sunday main service provides a venue for worship, teaching, relationship building and prayer ministry. In addition, Small Groups provide a setting for sharing and learning in a smaller more intimate setting. Pastoral care and support are available to all.
Wells Vineyard Church has two compassion ministries; a foodbank which operates for two sessions every week and a furniture storehouse which collects and delivers items to equip a home, normally once a week.
The Foodbank purchases and receives donated surplus food and prepares food parcels to those in need in the local community.
The church actively collects various items of furniture, household items (e.g. bedding) and kitchen items (crockery, cutlery etc.), which are given freely and we in turn provide these items to those in need completely free, together with food parcels if required (see under relief of need and hardship).
Wells Vineyard plays an active part in working with other Wells Churches and its leaders meet with the leaders of other Wells Churches on a regular basis.
## **C.** Achievements and Performance
## **Advancing the Christian Faith**
There have been mixed results over this year. We had an increase in people having an interest in faith and attending Church however, congregation levels remained static due to some long term members leaving.
Small group Church events were reinstated following the Covid restrictions from the previous year and there were several opportunities for developing closer relationships within the Church as a whole.
The leadership team met regularly throughout the year and enjoyed joint leadership meetings with Wells United Church forging a new path between the Churches, and in particular, looking at opportunities of shared leadership. S Marland has maintained the community relationships between the Wells Vineyard

## **WELLS VINEYARD CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP**
For the Year Ending 31 March 2022
Church and other Churches and organisations in Wells. In particular, S Marland has played an active role in CTWA (Churches Together Wells Area) and the WCN (Wells Coronavirus Network) now the Wells Community Network.
Financial support was provided to Vineyard Churches UK for training and church planting. The church remains committed to identifying and training potential church planters for the future.
The demand on the Foodbank ministry of the Church continued to steadily increase throughout the year and the Foodbank remained open for all twice weekly sessions (Wednesday and Saturday mornings 10.30 a.m. – 12.30 p.m.) The Foodbank is manned by a rota of volunteers from Wells Vineyard, other local churches and from the wider community.
We were able to maintain a delivery service of food parcels to those who were unable to collect them, a service which began during the Covid restrictions. This service was facilitated by mainly WCN volunteers.
## **Advance Religious or Secular Education**
A variety of conferences and training days, Vineyard events (both nationally and regionally), and New Wine conferences did not take place during Covid.
However, training has continued for group leaders within the church. We have taken part in the Vineyard Leaders’ Gathering and in particular the Mission Conference for training and equipping. Courses from the International Vineyard movement have helped bless our Church community and grow our faith within the local Church.
Wells Vineyard Church remains committed to developing leadership qualities and gifts, especially looking to train up the next generation of leaders. In particular, one of our members has been placed under the guardianship of S. Marland in their theological training at Moorlands College.
Bible study and prayer have been a particular focus for this year to support the congregation and their families and to pray into the situation around the world.
## **Relief of need and hardship**
Support has continued for various organisations that work to relieve need and hardship including the sponsorship of three children, one in Indonesia, one in Nicaragua and one in Kenya. We continue to support other causes in the UK and worldwide on a regular basis according to need.
The ‘Storehouse Ministry’ has continued to provide support via referrals from local agencies and the list of partner agencies includes YMCA, CAB, Somerset Families Floating Support, Mendip District Council and Aster Communities as well as the local Elim Connect Church.
The number of food parcels distributed by the Foodbank increased substantially throughout the year and were provided to individuals, couples and families with children. Food has been donated by local churches and schools (including the produce from Harvest Festivals) and there are collection points fulltime at the local Waitrose, Morrisons and Santander which bring in regular donations.
We are a member of the FareShare Foodcloud scheme at both the local Tesco and Waitrose stores which brings in a donation of perishable produce for each Foodbank session. We joined Neighbourly this year to add Aldi to this list of supermarkets providing surplus food for our Foodbank clients.
Christmas saw a large number of toys and gifts donated to us which were given out with food parcels over the Christmas period. Surplus items were distributed to the Connect Centre and the YMCA.

For the Year Ending 31 March 2022
The demand for furniture from the Storehouse mission has continued although Covid restrictions meant that the ministry was unable to operate normally for part of the year. Storehouse delivered items of furniture, bedding and other household items to numerous households in Wells and the surrounding area whenever it was possible and needed. Furniture donations continued to be offered and wherever possible these were accepted if they were believed to be valuable for existing or future clients.
## **D.** Plans for Future Periods
The overall aims of the next year will be to build on the close relationships built over numerous Zoom sessions during Covid restrictions. Our main intentions are to restore normal Church activities, to grow in numbers and to develop our relationship with the Wells United Church who offered to share their Church building with us and S. Marland took on a tenancy in the Wells United Church Manse.
## **E.** Financial Review
Income for the period was £67,164 (2021 - £84,176) with expenditure of £73,720 (2021 - £72,619) resulting in a profit/(deficit) of income over expenditure by (£6,556), (2021 - £11,557).
Outward donations went to various needy organisations. The minimum target of 10% of income (excluding the restricted income) was achieved.
## **Grant making policy**
Grants are made, subject to an overall minimum guidance limit of 10% of the Charity's income, to individuals or organisations for use in furtherance of the Charity's objectives.
## **Reserves Policy**
The target reserve policy, which is to maintain a level of cover for running costs, which will ensure a continuation of operations for at least six months, is still in force and will continue to be monitored and action taken if required.
This was achieved and a separate HSBC bank account fund of £10,000 has been maintained throughout the period.
## **Investment Policy**
Funds are placed into interest bearing accounts when a surplus over running costs is available
## **Funds held as custodian trustee on behalf of others**
The Trustees hold as custodian Trustees all monies on behalf of the charity.
## **F.** Directors' responsibilities
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year giving a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the company and of the income and expenditure of that period. In preparing those financial statements, the directors are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
Page | 7
**WELLS VINEYARD CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP** For the Year Ending 31 March 2022
- prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business;
The directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 1985. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
## **Directors & Trustees**
The directors who served during the period are listed on page 1.
## **Volunteers**
The church relies on many volunteers to run its various functions most of whom are unpaid and give their time freely. These include provision of a safe child and youth care programme, musical provision, refreshments, wellbeing, welcoming and I.T functions, together with numerous courses and outreach programmes.
## **Auditors**
As the company’s turnover was below the threshold for formal audit the directors have not appointed auditors for these accounts.
The Church does however engage the services of an Accountant to affect an Independent Examination of the financial position and whose declaration is attached to this report.
This report has been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic or Ireland (FRS 102) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Charities Act 2011.

## Notes to the Financial Statements
For the year ended 31 March 2022 the company was entitled to exemption under section 477 of the Companies Act 2006.
Members have not required the company to obtain an audit in accordance with section 476 of the Companies Act 2006.
The directors acknowledge their responsibility for:
- ensuring the company keeps accounting records which comply with section 386; and
- preparing accounts which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company as at the end of the financial year, and of its profit or loss for the financial year, in accordance with the requirements of section 393, and which otherwise comply with the requirements of the Companies Act relating to accounts, so far as applicable to the company;
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies’ regime. The banking reconciliation difficulties mentioned in the previous year’s examiner’s report has been clarified. It was a fault within the company’s accounting software Xero which had been duplicating bank statement entries. This issue has been resolved.
## 1. Accounting Policies
## **Basis of Accounting**
The financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic or Ireland (FRS 102) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Charities Act 2011. The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.
## **Fund Accounting**
Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources receivable or generated for the objects of the charity without further specific purpose and are available as general funds. Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the charity for particular purposes. Restricted funds are funds that can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
## **Incoming Resources**
All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
- Voluntary income is received by way of donations and gifts and is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable.
- Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified. The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included in these accounts.
- Investment income is included when receivable.
- Incoming resources from charitable trading activity are accounted for when earned.

**WELLS VINEYARD CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP**
For the Year Ending 31 March 2022
## **Resources expended**
Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. The charitable company is not registered for VAT and accordingly expenditure is shown gross of unrecoverable VAT.
- 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. Donations or grants from the charitable company are treated as an expense when paid.
- Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity.
- All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the SOFA on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource. In circumstances where this is not possible the directors apportion the amounts in what they consider to be fair proportions to each category.
## **Fixed Assets**
Fixed assets (excluding investments) are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The costs of minor additions or those costing below £100 are not capitalised. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset over its expected useful life, on the following basis:
Office and computer equipment 3 year straight line Audio-visual and p.a. equipment 3 year straight line Musical Instruments 5 year straight line Office furnishings, trailers and vehicles 5 year straight line
## **Taxation**
The charitable company is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
## **Donated goods & services**
Various goods are donated to the Church and are not included in the accounts as no value is attached to them. The Church is in regular receipt of unwanted items such as furniture, crockery, bedding and pots and pans. All goods taken in by the Church charity are given free gratis and with no conditions attached thereto therefore no liability exists in receiving such goods or in their disposal.
There are a number of people who are members of the Church and/or local community who regularly give their time freely to ensure the Church runs smoothly. Whilst this is of great value to the Church in its running, it has not been reflected in the accounts as a “value” therefore has not materially affected the outcome of the years report.
## **Disclosure of trustee expenses**
Trustees are remunerated for expenses incurred as a result of their role as a trustee. As at the 31st March 2022, two trustees were remunerated having been employed by the charity. (See table relating to transactions with trustees)
## **Independent examiner**
The independent examiner has been paid for accountant services to the Charity during the year.
## **Pension contributions**
The Charity now runs a defined contribution pension scheme under current legislation. The chosen provider is NEST, a government sponsored provider.
## **Staff costs**
No employees received emoluments (excluding employer pension costs) of more than £60,000.
Page | 12
**WELLS VINEYARD CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP** For the Year Ending 31 March 2022
## **NI contributions**
These have been levied against the employees at the requisite rate. A rebate scheme has operated over the last 12 months.
## **Stocks**
These are immaterial to the balance sheet and will attach a NIL value as they:
- Have a NIL sale value
- They are not material to assessing the Charity’s state of affairs
- All costs incurred in the production (if any) of stock items in the reporting period are charged to the relevant activity category of the SOFA.
-
## **Joint ventures**
Wells Vineyard Christian fellowship regularly joins other Christian organisations in the Wells area to provide Christian teaching – the organisation is called CTWA - Christians Together in Wells Area. This is a co-operative organisation that undertakes various events throughout each year, funded by the member Churches/Charities through modest subscriptions to run these events. The co-operative has a treasurer who uses these funds to pay for any associated costs which are usually very small and cover rents, printing and ancillary items. The decision-making process is undertaken by a forum of representatives of all the Churches and Church leaders.

**WELLS VINEYARD CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP**
For the Year Ending 31 March 2022
## Independent examiner’s report to the Trustees of Wells Vineyard Christian Fellowship
I report on the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 March 2020, which are set out on pages 10 to 16.
## Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the 1993 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
examine the accounts under section 43 of the 1993 Act;
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 43(7)(b) of the 1993 Act; and
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## Basis of independent examiner’s report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. 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 the seeking of 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, no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
## Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements
- (a) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
- (b) to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (revised 2005) have not been met; or
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
