TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)".
Objectives and activities
To advance the Christian Faith in accordance with the statement of beliefs appearing in the schedule hereto in Bournemouth and in such other parts of the United Kingdom or the World as the Trustees may from time to time think fit and to fulfil such other purposes which are exclusively charitable according to the Law of England and Wales and are connected with the charitable work of the Charity.
To advance the education in accordance with Christian principals in the said locality and elsewhere as the Trustees may from time to time think fit.
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.
Achievements and performance
Notable activities and affiliations
Bournemouth Community Church is affiliated to The Evangelical Alliance, a nationwide family of individuals, organisations and churches. There are no related parties under the terms of the Statement of Recommended Practice that inhibits this registered Charity from pursuing its own separate interests. The church continues to effectively pursue its objects by conducting special initiatives for church members to share their faith and invite contacts to appropriate meetings.
Community Involvement
Bournemouth Community Church (BCC) continued with their 2-year strategy for recovery and reconstruction following covid and inflationary increases. Our regular in-person Sunday services have steadily grown, alongside our weekday ministries and general giving. Our on-line activities continued. Commercial lease agreements were extended, and our events hosting increased our regular income.
The Lifecentre building once again has facilitated essential NHS work and BCC's community support, and provided space for the ongoing work of:
• LIFEhouse as a signposting agency • Food Bank, Munch Club • NHS Blood Bank and Diabetic Eye Screen • Accommodation for other Charitable organisations serving the local community • 5 children's and youth clubs covering 5 to 18 years • A senior citizens group • Dementia Care group • Family counselling • Open days • Community groups such as choirs • Community Conferences • Holiday clubs • Lecture facilities & graduation ceremonies for universities and local schools
Development of the Facilities
Further investment was made to the infrastructure of the building to improve the facilities for the community and inline with current health and safety requirements.

BOURNEMOUTH COMMUNITY CHURCH
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
Financial review
We continued to meet our financial obligations and ended the year with a surplus.
Total amount of reserves held at 31 December 2022 was £1,738,011 (2021: £1,708,339) of which £1,629,779 was unrestricted funds and £108,232 was restricted. The majority of the restricted funds balance is made up of amounts received for the solar panels installation.
The Charity's policy on reserves is that we will make a suitable provision for contractual liabilities. In this regard, it was resolved by the Trustees that when possible, a reserve be created for the payments of salaries. The Trustees do not intend to keep substantial reserves as the objects of the charity determine distribution of funds to fulfill these objects and would only be agreed where there is a known future commitment that demands creating such a reserve.
The major risk that the charity faces is a significant drop in numbers of committed members from whom the Charity receives the bulk of its income. Fulfilling our commitment to our staff and regular expenditure to achieve our objects in a declining income scenario would be our main concern but which we do not anticipate being an ongoing problem. We have a history of seeing needs met and we flag-up shortfalls in income or uncovered increased expenditure to the congregation who have always responded well. There is an appropriate balance between caution and faith and the elders and Trustees are committed to seeing this maintained.
Structure, governance and management
The Charity is a company limited by guarantee and is governed by its memorandum and articles of association.
The trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:
Rev R Constantine
Mr A Driscoll Mr R S Hurley Mr S M Matos Mrs N M Wilkinson Mrs S A Sherwood
The Trustees are appointed by the Board of Trustees and can serve for an unlimited amount of time and are not suject to retirement by rotation. The governing document provides for a minimum of 3 Trustees at any one time,but shall not be subject to any maximum.
The Charity is managed by the Board of Trustees, who meet at regular intervals during the year to discuss the major issues affecting the Charity.
The trustees' report was approved by the Board of Trustees.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
Bournemouth Community Church is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Life Centre, 711 - 715 Wimborne Road, Bournemouth, BH9 2AU.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular future project or commitment.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
1.4 Income
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

(Continued)
1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:
-
expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, non-charitable trading activities, and the sale of donated goods.
-
expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
-
other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.
All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Freehold property 2% straight line Solar panels 4% straight line Fixtures and fittings 25% reducing balance Equipment 25% reducing balance Motor vehicles 25% reducing balance
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
1.7 Fixed asset investments
Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.
A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the charity. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
1.8 Impairment of fixed assets
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.
1.9 Financial instruments
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the entity after deducting all of its financial liabilities.

1.10 Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
