FARNHAM VINEYARD (A Company Limited by Guarantee) INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT ON THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2022
Report to the trustees/ members of Farnham Vineyard on the accounts for the year ended 31st December 2022.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with 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 seeking explanations from the 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:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act
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.

The acquisition of Church House, Union Road, Farnham took place on the 12th October 2007 for £450,000. The Charity had a £400,000 repayment mortgage set up over 25 years and an interest rate of 6.5% with The Charity Bank, Tonbridge. On the 15th December 2021 the Church invested the sum of £202,667, being a third of the purchase price, to aid in the purchase of 26 Waynflete Lane, Farnham, which property is considered suitable and necessary for the proper fulfillment of the senior pastor - Mr Pritchard's role. This is for the best interests of the church as the most appropriate way of assisting with such living accommodation and not by way of business.
A refinance of the existing loan was made for £392,363 which included a lump sum repayment of £212,363 for closure and an additional loan taken for £180,000, over 25 years at an interest rate of 3.75% above BOE base rate, continuing with The Charity Bank, Tonbridge to fund the purchase of the residential property, Waynflete Lane mentioned above.

14. RISK ASSESSMENT
The Directors actively review the major risks which the charity faces on a regular basis and believe that maintaining the free reserves stated combined with the annual review of the controls over key financial systems carried out on an annual basis will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions. The Directors have also examined other operational and business risks which they face and confirm that they have established systems to mitigate the significant risks.
15. RESERVES POLICY
The Directors have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the charity's needs. This is based on the charity's size and the level of financial commitments held. The Directors aim to ensure the charity will be able to continue to fulfil its charitable objectives even if there is a temporary shortfall in income or unexpected expenditure. The Directors will endeavour not to set aside funds unnecessarily.
16. PUBLIC BENEFIT

Details of how the charity has achieved this are provided in the Directors' report.
