Review of Activities
In keeping with our vision and as a small charity we continue to review our undertakings and our continued aim is to reflect growth and work through changes as we navigate towards desired outcomes.
We also continue to work in partnership with other organisations, particularly those delivering money, management, courses.
For over 20 years we have worked in conjunction with the salvation army, through organising and actively participating in the distribution of food and clothing to those who are homeless and those trying to find new and improved ways of living. This venture is supported by the local police, local authority, and other agencies.
We lay great importance in our spiritual growth and through prayer, and the imparting of prayer skills, guidance, and counselling through teaching, which enables us to provide support to the members of the community.
Plans
We value people and how they function in society. Therefore, the Ministry has a desire through our aims and objectives to empower individuals through discipleship.
Our continued aim is to:
-
Teach people about prayer.
-
Support all to explore the importance of a personal relationship with God.
-
Through teaching and discussion support the relevance of our core identity.
-
Be more proactive with friends and family about the need to form a base of knowledge around personal health and well-being
-
through both practical and spiritual means.
The above focuses are mediums to provide opportunities for personal change which includes elements of our vision ‘Challenging behaviours and changing lives.’ This involves us encouraging partners of the Ministry to consistently apply biblical principles of the Kingdom of God in all areas of our lives, including the workplace and the community.

Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of H.O.P.E Minstries Limited
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31st May 2022, which are set out on pages 5 to 9.
Respective Responsibilities of the Trustees and Examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examiner’s Statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. 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 explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiner’s Statement
There are no issues
-
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 Charities Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act
have not been met; or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
