Some of the main activities geared towards its public benefit objectives are: 1) Operating community and church activities out of premises it now owns in Lady Lane, Longford. Plans are in preparation for the repair and refurbishment of this historic former Baptist Chapel over the next couple of years, so that it better serves the local community. 2) The church has been running an over 50s singing and luncheon club for the local residents of Longford and further afield. 3) House of Empowerment has operated a community Christian bookshop. Although it has not traded this year, it is intended to re-open soon. 4) We continue to support charities with regular donations. ## **Review of Financial Position** Please refer to the annexed accounts for the details of the Financial Statements for the period ended 31 March 2022. ## **Trustees Responsibilities in Relation to the Financial Statements** The Charities Act requires the Trustees to prepare statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the surplus or deficit of the charity for that period in preparing these financial statements, the trustees are requested to: a) Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently - b) Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent - c) State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements. d) Prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation. The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records, which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking any reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. ## **Approval** This report was approved by the Board of Trustees and signed on their behalf by: Signature : ____________________________________________ Name : _____________________________________________ Date : _____________________________________________ - 1 - ## **HOUSE OF EMPOWERMENT INTERNATIONAL MINISTRIES** ## **Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of** ## **House of Empowerment International Ministries** I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31 March 2022 which are set out on pages 5 to 8. ## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** The charity’s trustees are responsible for the reparation to the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011) and that an independent examination is needed. it is my responsibility to: - examine the accounts (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act) - to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners and - to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. ## **Basis of independent examiner’s report** My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145 (5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 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 explanation from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. ## **Independent examiner’s statement** In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention. (1) 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 2011 Act, and - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act and regulations have not been met or (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
