Harmony Christian Ministries have relied on benefactors since the creation of the charity. Most funds are raised from those with whom we have close relationships, typically through their attendance as worshippers at one of our churches. Wider circles of relationships are maintained through our websites and social media pages, all of which may include invitations to donate. Contact relationship data and donations data are managed centrally through a highly secure database with access restricted to a small number of employees.
We fundraise in accordance with the requirements of the Fundraising Regulator, and with our moral obligations as a charity. We always fundraise responsibly and, with a sensitivity to the pastoral relationship that most donors have with the Church. We avoid approaches to vulnerable people and do not hold information on children. Access to the services we provide as a charity is not dependent on donations. We do not currently employ third party fundraiser. Complaints are responded to as soon as possible. No such complaint was received in the year.

- the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
- the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.

## **2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## 2.1 **Income Recognition of income**
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
- the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
- it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and
- the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
## **Offsetting**
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.
## **Grants and donations**
Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).
In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP).
## **Legacies**
Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met.
## **Government grants**
The charity has received government grants in the reporting period
**HARMONY CHRISTIAN MINISTRIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**
## **Tax reclaims on donations and gifts**
Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
## **Contractual income and performance related grants**
This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or services or met the performance related conditions.
## **Donated goods**
Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so.
The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt. In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution.
Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'.
Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.
Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when receivable.
## **Donated services and facilities**
Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably.
Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the SOFA.
## **Support costs**
The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.
## **Volunteer help**
The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report.
## **Income from interest, royalties and dividends Income from membership subscriptions**
This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable, and the amount receivable can be measured reliably.
Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and Legacies.
Membership subscriptions which give a member the right to buy services or other benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as income from charitable activities.
**HARMONY CHRISTIAN MINISTRIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**
## **Settlement of insurance claims**
Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other income in the SoFA. **Investment gains and losses**
This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and any
gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year.
## **2.2 Expenditure and Liabilities**
## **Liability recognition**
Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
## **Governance and support costs**
Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
## **Grants with performance conditions**
Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output.
## **Grants payable without performance conditions**
Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be recognised.
## **Redundancy cost**
The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period.
## **Deferred income**
No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts. **Creditors**
The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts **Provisions for liabilities**
A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date
## **Basic financial instruments**
The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per paragraph 11.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19, FRS102 SORP.
**HARMONY CHRISTIAN MINISTRIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**
## **2.3 Assets**
## **Tangible fixed assets for use by charity**
These are valued at cost and capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £1,000
The charge for depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of the fixed assets over their useful lives on the following bases:
Office & Musical Equipment 25% on the reducing balance Furniture & fittings 25% on the reducing balance Motor Vehicles 25% on the reducing balance Freehold Office 1% on the Straight-Line Method Assets are depreciated from the time at which they are brought into use.
## **Intangible fixed asset**
The charity does not have intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody or legal rights
## **Heritage assets**
The charity does not have heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic, scientific, technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held and maintained principally for their contribution to knowledge and culture.
## **Investments**
Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments.
## **Stocks and work in progress**
Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net realisable value.
Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value based on the service potential provided by items of stock.
Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract.
## **Debtors**
Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity.
Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received. **Current asset investments**
The charity does not have investments which it holds for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date less than one year. These include cash on deposit and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than one year held for investment purposes rather than to meet short term cash commitments as they fall due. They are valued at fair value except where they qualify as basic financial instruments.
