Structure, governance and management
Governing document
Bethel Presbyterian Church (Reformed) is constituted under a Trust Deed dated 10 April 2005 and a Constitution dated 14 October 2003. The registered charity number is 1109330.
Organisational structure
The trustees who have served during the year and since the year-end are set out on page 1 together with other legal and administrative information. The church is ruled by its ordained elders. The "trustee", so called, is a custodial trustee for property only.
Appointment and induction of new trustees
The trustees are elected by the Elders' session. The trustees are responsible for the induction of any new trustee. This involves making them aware of a trustee's responsibilities and of the nature of the governing document and administrative procedures. A new trustee would receive a copy of the charity's Trust Deed together with a copy of the charity's latest Annual Report and Accounts.
Key management remuneration
The board of trustees and the Elders' session are considered to be the key management personnel of the charity. Details of trustee remuneration or other benefits are disclosed at note 12. Details of trustee expenses and related party transactions are disclosed in notes 12 and 19 respectively. Payments to other key management personnel are given at note 11.
Risk management
The trustees have conducted a review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed. Where appropriate, systems or procedures have been established to mitigate the risk the charity faces. These procedures are periodically reviewed to ensure they continue to meet the needs of the charity.

Objectives and activities
Objectives and aims
The object of Bethel Presbyterian Church (Reformed) hereinafter called 'the Church' is to advance the Christian Religion in accordance with the doctrinal standards of the church.
Aims and powers
In furtherance of the above object the church shall:
(a) establish and build up itself as a Christian church in functioning as custodian, disciple of and witness to the truth of Holy Scripture;
(b) declare the whole counsel of God as revealed in holy Scripture and summarised in the Subordinate Standards of the Church;
(c) express the Christian life within and outside the fellowship of the Church;
(d) erect or acquire, maintain and, if necessary, dispose of such land and buildings as are necessary to accomplish the object, and for no other purposes than those consistent with charitable status;
(e) engage one or more persons in paid employment
(f) seek visible union with other churches, having the same, or a closely compatible, confessional basis and form of government;
(g) seek association, i.e., fraternal or sister-church relations, with other Reformed or Presbyterian churches subscribing to the Westminster Confession of Faith or the Three Forms of Unity (i.e., the Belgic Confession, the Heidelberg Catechism and the Canons of Dort) or a compatible Reformed confession;
(h) co-operate wherever possible, on a Biblical basis appropriate to each category, with other Christian churches and organisations;
(i) establish and maintain, according to the providence of God, such institutions and structures as will provide for: Christian education; theological training; care of the old and infirm; good works to be done to all men and especially those of the household of faith, and
(j) undertake the task of church extension and foundation as the persuasion of Scripture, providence and the Holy Spirit direct and constrain.
Volunteers

Achievements and performance
Bethel Church promotes the Christian religion primarily, but not exclusively, within the districts of Michaelston and Ely in the City of Cardiff. When considering our activities for the year the Church has considered the Commission`s guidance on public benefit and in particular the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion.
We seek to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our community through:
-
Worship and prayer; learning and understanding the whole counsel of God as found in the Bible and -- developing their relationship with and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ
-
Provision of pastoral care for people within our community and
-
Missionary and outreach work.
To assist this work it is important that we maintain, and as funds permit, develop the facilities within the Church building. Whilst adequate for the Church`s present need, due to pressure of increased numbers in the congregation, the need for additional space and in particular parking remains a matter for concern. The Church has benefitted from the use of a School Car Park on Sundays which continued until the school commenced demolition and the situation was further complicated by the outbreak of Covid-19 which also closed the adjacent Children and Adult centres and the use of their car park. The trustees continue to canvass Local Councillors with a view to purchasing land adjacent to the Church which is owned by the local Authority. The outcome will depend upon the future redevelopment of the local school and how the land is finally disposed of.
The period 6th April 2021 to 5th April 2022 has seen progress in the life of the church as indicated below.
Development of Christian Life
As part of the churchs commitment to declare the whole counsel of God as revealed in Holy Scripture and in its commitment to enable as many people as possible to worship at our Church and to become part of the Christian Community gathered at Bethel, regular meetings of worship and teaching have been maintained. The medium of Zoom continues to be used for those people who are nervous about Covid-19 and continues to reach others further afield. Our services are publicised on a notice board outside the Church building and it is emphasised that all are welcome to attend. Sermons are also published freely on the churchs website which is to be revised during the coming year.
The children’s work recommenced during the year and has gradually gained in momentum.
The women’s work has seen sustained activity this year using the medium of Zoom, with a monthly Bible study on Tuesday evenings until regular in person meetings resumed, including a Thursday Lunchtime meeting. The study of particular books to help in understanding how to live as Christian women in today’s society continues to be a central feature of these meetings.
Regular Bible studies and public prayer occasions were maintained during the year using again the medium of Zoom until services recommenced in person.
A programme of pastoral visitation and counselling was undertaken by the elders of the church during the year to help and encourage the church community.
The Church building remains available for use as a polling station for elections.

Bethel Presbyterian Church (Reformed)
Trustees' Annual Report (continued)
Year ended 5 April 2022
The Church building remains available for use by the local branch of the Women`s Institute for their monthly meetings as they were able to recommence activities once more.
Ely has been identified as containing a large number of underprivileged people and within its resources the church seeks to reach out to help families or individuals in their difficulties.
As part of our concern to help in the wider community, one of our members serves as a Governor in a local school.
The new Minister commenced his ministry on 1[st] August 2021, moving initially into rented accommodation with his wife and three children. This has proven to be a great encouragement to the Church community.
The church’s annual business meeting took place on 18[th] May 2022 when the budget proposed for the year was presented, once again made possible by the generosity of giving in the church.
A number of worthy causes were supported during the year as detailed in the notes of the accounts.
Elders of the church attended the regular meetings of the Presbytery of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church of England and Wales during the year, as and when it was made possible due to Covid-19 restrictions.

Financial review
Going concern
Having considered budget and cash flow projections for the next twelve months, and the consequences of Covid-19 and other events and conditions, the trustees are confident that the Trust will continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future and consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Trust's ability to continue as a going concern. It is therefore considered appropriate by the trustees to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.
The accounts comply with the current statutory requirements and the charity's governing documents.
Total incoming resources for the year of £98,043 consist of donations received of £86,578, associated tax refunds of £11,179, £250 for room hire and £36 of interest. A significant proportion of the total expenditure of £95,559 relates to salaries and ministry support.
Incoming resources exceeded resources expended by £2,484 (2021 - £12,362).
Reserves policy
The Elders have examined the level of reserves held at the year end in light of the main risks facing the organisation. A policy has been established to maintain free reserves equivalent to three months' operating costs. This is estimated to be approximately £12,000.
The free reserves of a charity represent the funds that are freely available to spend. In calculating the free reserves the Elders have deducted from the total of unrestricted funds any funds designated at the year end and the net book value of all tangible fixed assets as detailed in the accounts. This leaves a surplus of free reserves at 5 April 2022 of £90,121 which exceeds the target set by the Elders. The policy is reviewed by the trustees on an ongoing basis.
The trustees' annual report was approved on 11 December 2022 and signed on behalf of the board of trustees by:

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Bethel Presbyterian Church (Reformed)
Year ended 5 April 2022
I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Bethel Presbyterian Church (Reformed) ('the charity') for the year ended 5 April 2022.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
the financial statements do 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.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Year ended 5 April 2022
1. General information
The charity is a public benefit entity and a registered charity in England and Wales and is unincorporated. The address of the principal office is Michaelston Road, Ely, Cardiff, CF5 4SX.
2. Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Charities Act 2011.
3. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.
Going concern
Having considered the consequences of Covid-19 and other events and conditions, the trustees are confident that the charity will continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due and consider that there are no material uncertainties that impact on the going concern basis being used to prepare these financial statements.
Disclosure exemptions
The entity satisfies the criteria of being a qualifying entity as defined in FRS 102. As such, advantage has been taken of the disclosure exemption available under paragraph 1.12 of FRS 102 not to prepare or disclose a cash flow statement.
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
-
Significant judgements - There are currently no key judgements that management has made in the process of applying the entity's accounting policies that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.
-
Key sources of estimation uncertainty - There are currently no key assumptions or other sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
Income tax
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
Year ended 5 April 2022
3. Accounting policies (continued)
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees to further any of the charity's purposes.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular future project or commitment.
Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure declared by the donor or through the terms of an appeal, and fall into one of two sub-classes: restricted income funds or endowment funds.
Incoming resources
All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity; it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
-
income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.
-
legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established.
-
income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless this is impractical to measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated resale value. Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts when received if the value can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers.
-
income from contracts for the supply of services is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent, in which case it may be regarded as restricted.

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

3. Accounting policies (continued)
Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:
-
expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, non-charitable trading activities, and the sale of donated goods.
-
expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
-
other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.
All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, unless it reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been recognised as expenditure within the statement of financial activities. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, except to which it offsets any previous revaluation gain, in which case the loss is shown within other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activities.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
| Freehold property | - | 2% straight line |
|---|---|---|
| Fixtures and fittings | - | 20% straight line |
| Improvements to property | - | 2% straight line |
Impairment of fixed assets
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.

Bethel Presbyterian Church (Reformed)
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
Year ended 5 April 2022
3. Accounting policies (continued)
Financial instruments
The Church only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which would be subsequently measured at the carrying value plus accrued interest less repayments.
Defined contribution plans
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.
When contributions are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the end of the reporting date in which the employees render the related service, the liability is measured on a discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as an expense in the period in which it arises.
