The Tyn-Y-Nant Christian Centre Company No. 04949384 Trustees' Report For The Year Ended 31 January 2026

The trustees present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 January 2026.

Objectives and Activities

Aims and Objectives

The charity provides holidays for young people in a Christian environment under the name of Merseyside Christian Youth Camps (MCYC).

The advancement of the Christian faith by the provision and use of land and premises for the worship of God. For the edification of believers in God and for the provision of facilities to further the religious, social, moral and physical wellbeing of young people and others in accordance with the basis of faith.

Public Benefit

The trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit in managing the activities of the charity.

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit.

Achievements and Performance

Main Achievements

The last twelve months have seen us achieving our aims through weeks of Camps during the May and summer school holidays. Hundreds of children and young people were able to attend week long holidays where they could enjoy all kinds of fun activities with friends and explore the meaning and message of Christianity, all while being looked after by teams of well trained volunteers.

We have also been able to continue with our Camp Abererch activities, running a week of activities for young and old alike from the local village and further afield. These are well attended and appreciated, with various people commenting that the week is the highlight of their summer, and that there is very little else happening in the area.

We successfully introduced a new week this year which catered for families so that adults could join the children and young people in their families for a week of camp – this week was very well attended and we would look to grow this week in future years.

We also continue to let out our site in North Wales to groups, often to church and Christian Union groups. This provides an affordable place for people to go away as groups to worship God, and also continues to provide a small but steady income for us. Throughout the year the site is also well maintained by various hardworking contractors and volunteers.

We have added to our trustees in this last year to add a wider range of skills and experience to the Board as the existing trustees identified need for strengthening.

Plans for future periods

We continue to look at the best ways to advertise and promote our activities, both directly to the young people who may come, and to churches and youth groups who may send groups along. We also continue to look at priorities for maintaining and improving the site, as well as ways to fundraise so that we will be able to invest in the long-term success of the charity. We will continue to develop our relationship with churches and youth groups in area close to the site in North Wales.

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 January 2026.

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 requirements 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 charity’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:

�. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
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 as part of an independent examination; or
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 (FRS 102).

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.

The Tyn-Y-Nant Christian Centre Notes to the Financial Statements For The Year Ended 31 January 2026

1. General Information

The Tyn-Y-Nant Christian Centre is a company limited by guarantee, incorporated in England & Wales, registered number 04949384 and registered charity number 1102688. The registered office is Jireh Busness Hub, Teehey Gardens, Bebington, Wirral, CH63 2JH.

2. Accounting Policies

2.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) "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)", Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006.

The charitable company is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

2.2. Incoming Resources

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably.

Income received in advance of the provision of specified services is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

2.3. Resources Expended

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings - expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs and other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading.

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

2.4. Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation

Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of the fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:

Freehold 0% / 2% / 5% Plant & Machinery 10%

Freehold is split as follows:

Freehold Land: 0% New buildings: 2% Refurbishments: 5%

2.5. Stocks and Work in Progress

Stocks and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slowmoving stocks.

Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.

Work in progress is reflected in the accounts on a contract by contract basis by recording turnover and related costs as contract activity progresses.

At the end of each reporting period stocks are assessed for impairment. If an item of stock is impaired, the identified stock is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell and an impairment charge is recognised in the statement of financial activities. Where a reversal of the impairment is required the impairment charge is reversed, up to the original impairment loss, and is recognised as a credit in the statement of financial activities.

2.6. Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and are readily convertible to a known amount of cash with insignificant risk of change in value, and bank overdrafts.
