HARMONY CHRISTIAN MINISTRIES CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
TRUSTEES REPORT Introduction
The trustees who are also the directors for the purpose of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025. The trustees have prepared the accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland (Charities SORP FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
Status and Administration
The Charity is constituted and registered with the Charity Commission under charity number 1105101, and is a Private Limited Company by guarantee without share capital registered with the Companies House under company number 3702274.
Governance and Internal Control
The Trustees of the charity are also Directors of the company. Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, Trustees serve for a year and are re-elected until they resign or are terminated. All Trustees give their time freely and matters relating to remuneration, expenses and related party transactions are disclosed in notes to the financial statements. The trustees meet three times a year including a weekend meeting to review the strategy and performance and to set the operating plans and budgets. In the event of the company being wound up the members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £10.
Key Management Personnel
The Board of Trustees includes members with extensive experience in business, finance, and governance. Day-to-day management of the Charity is delegated to the Senior Management Team (SMT), which comprises professionals from relevant disciplines. Members of the SMT report directly to the Board as appropriate. The Trustees are responsible for determining the remuneration of the Charity’s key management personnel, benchmarked against comparable roles in the not-for-profit and similar sectors. While the SMT manages operations on a daily basis, the Trustees retain ultimate responsibility for directing and controlling the Charity. Collectively, the Trustees and the Senior Management Team constitute the key management personnel of the organisation.
Trustee Induction and Training
Most trustees are familiar with the workings of the church and Charity being drawn from longstanding church members and Christians from other denominations that have a skill set to offer and an empathy with our core values. New trustees are invited and encouraged to attend a series of short training sessions led by the Chair of the Board and the COO. One major training was also organised by an external Consulting Firm for all Trustees and Directors. These cover:
-
The statutory duties and obligations of Trustees
-
The key governing documents of the Charity, including the Memorandum and Articles of Association
-
The Charity's financial resources and the current financial position as reflected in the latest accounts
-
The organisation's future plans and strategic objectives

An information pack has been prepared drawing upon relevant Charity Commission publications, including The Essential Trustee. This pack, along with the latest financial statements and governing documents, is provided to all new Trustees. Furthermore, Trustees are encouraged to attend relevant external seminars and training opportunities to ensure ongoing development and good governance practices.
Related parties and cooperation with other organisations

-

Fundraising activities
Harmony Christian Ministries has historically relied on the support of benefactors. Most funds are raised from individuals with whom the Charity maintains close relationships, typically through attendance at one of its churches. Broader engagement is maintained via the Charity’s website and social media channels, which may include invitations to donate.

Reserves

Members participate on a voluntary basis, choosing the type and level of support they provide, whether through service or financial contribution, without any form of coercion.

-
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 FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
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 FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
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.

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.
