Policieson reserves.

The board of trustees has examined the charity's requirements for reserves in fight of the main risks to the organisation. It has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed of invested in tangible fixed assets held by the chanty should be between 3 and 6 months of the expenditure.

The expenditure for the year is £473,431, therefore the targeted reserves should be between capital£236,715.50and £118,357.75 in general funds. The reserves are needed to meet the working able requirements of the charity and the trustees are confident that at this level they would be This togeneral continuereservethe currentpolicy activitihas be e sn ofme t heand charityexceeded in the eventthis yearof a s s i gnificantn previousdropyears.in funding, Significant events which have affected the financial performance and the financial position.

in the year under review the COVID-19 pandemic would have had an adverse effect on the financial position and performance of the charity as the congregants were not able to meet physically between March 2020 and July 2021. Despite this though, the charity was able to raise an incomeof £699,271,

The major risks to which the charity is exposed and reviews and systems to mitigate them.

The trustees have identified the major strategic risks to which Gateway Ministries are exposed and established controls and actions to mitigate them. Each year, risk assessments take place at ourThe office in Crayfordand these risk assessments are subject to continual review and monitoring. to whichtrustees volunteertake astaffappropriateand assets stepsof toGatewaymoderateMinistriesand managare e xposed.the inevitable operational risks Competence-based training for volunteers, employer's liability insurance, monitoring of new legislative requirements are examples of steps taken. in particular, there are policies and procedures for chikdren and vulnerable adults protection and for health and safety risks, Furthermore, a risk register is to be established and updated at least annually,

Factorslikely to affect future financial performance.

The COVID-19 pandernic is likely to have an adverse effect on the future financial performance of the charity as there is likely to be less disposable income available to congregants, hence less Incorne to be received which wouk also affect the gift aid to be reclairned.

Principal funding sources in the year and how these support the key objectives of the charity.

The principal funding sources for the charity are currently by way of donations and gifts from congregants through the offering baskets passed uring church services and through bank standing orders. We have exercised our right to reclaim the tax on the donations and gifts received from the congregants and this has proved a steady and growing source of additional income,

The trustees consider that the audit requirement of Section 144(1) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) does not apply, and that there is no requirement in the memorandum and articles of the charity for the conducting of an audit, and that the accounts do not require an audit in accordance with Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and that no member or members have requested an audit pursuant to Section 476 of the Companies Act 2006. As a consequence, the trustees have elected that the financial statements be subject to independent examination. Having satisfied myself that the financial statements are not required to be audited under any legal provision, or otherwise, and are eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:-

a) examine the financial statements of the charity under Section 145 of the Act;
