## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

a. Review of activities 

## Bible Study 

We held regular meetings at all our Bible study and prayer centres in Redbridge and Essex. 

## Evangelism 

Evangelism was carried out throughout the year, reaching out to those who were on the street as well as in residential homes, enlightening them of the love of Jesus that there is hope for them too if they would respond to His love. In addition to giving the homeless the word of God, our team also went with tea, coffee, sandwiches giving as many as possible. In the past a number of them have responded positively to our invitation and attended our services. 

## Counselling 

This was made available free of charge mainly by the pastor. Appointments to see the pastor are made either directly with him or through the church office. The meetings took place in the Church during the week in addition to Sundays. 

We had a number of activities for the youths, men and women during the year which included seminars and workshops as well as counselling. They had some time to socialising as well 

We pray and preach the good news of salvation not only in Redbridge and Essex but in many other parts of the UK. 

b. Investment policy and performance 

The trustees have decided that at present, funds should be retained in Bank. Any change in such banking arrangements should be agreed by the board. As far as possible, funds will be retained in interest bearing accounts. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

a. Investment policy and performance 

The trustees have decided that at present, funds should be retained in Bank. Any change in such banking arrangements should be agreed by the board. As far as possible, funds will be retained in interest bearing accounts. 

## b. Reserves policy 

The Trustees have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets ('the free reserves') held by the church should be 3 months of annual expenditure. At this level, the trustees feel that they would be able to continue the current activities of the church in the event of a significant drop in funding. 

## **PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS** 

We plan to expand the pre- school at a later date to include breakfast and after school club as well as ful time provision 

Page 4

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

a. Constitution 

b. Method of appointment or election of Trustees 

The church is organised so that the trustees meet regularly to manage its affairs. The day to day administration of the church is managed by the pastor. 

Redeemed Christian Church of God ('RCCG') Liberty Christian Connections is a member of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) which has parishes all over the world. The parish's relationship with RCCG and other parishes is governed by an "Agreement for Common Purposes". 

The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the church is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the church, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate our exposure to the major risks. 

## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities in relation to the financial statements** 

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

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provisions of the Trust deed. The Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

**RCCG - Liberty Christian Connections Independent Examiners Report** 

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of RCCG - Liberty Christian Connections** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of RCCG - Liberty Christian Connections for the year ended 31 December 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and the related notes. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011('the Act'). The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under the Charities Act 2011, s.144(2) (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

As the charity'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 by being a qualified member of FAIA . 

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

- the accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

- the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

- the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of the financial statements set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the financial statements give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

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 financial statements to be reached.

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

Office & Church Equipment 20% Reducing Balance Motor Vehicle 20% Straight Line Furniture & Fittings 25% Reducing Balance 


## **Freehold investment property**

## **Trade and other creditors** 

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

## **Foreign currencies** 

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are recorded at the rate of exchange on the date that the transaction occurred. 

All exchange differences are are taken into account in arriving at net income/expenditure. 

## **Leased assets** 

Where the charity enters into a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease. 

Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to charity are classified as operating leases. 

Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the charity at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet date as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the charity's policy on borrowing costs. Assets held under finance leases are depreciated in the same way as owned assets. 

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis. 

## **Pension costs** 

The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the charity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the charity has no further payments obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the charity in independently administered funds. 

## **Receipt of donated goods, facilities and services** 

All donated goods, facilities and services received are recognised within incoming resources and expenditure at an estimate of the value to the charity.
