## **Section C Objectives and activities**
Our main activity is to hold religious services of worship. All other activities stem from this primary focus.
**Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document**
The trustees report that they are fully aware of the Charity Commissions Public Benefit Guidance and can confirm that their purpose is for the public benefit as set out in the charity’s charitable objectives (purposes) in its governing document. The life of our Unitarian Chapel began at the start of 2020 in the usual way, our premises being well used both for worship and community activities. **Summary of the main** The One World Hub, the chapel-based organisation providing day care **activities undertaken for the** for vulnerable adults with learning difficulties, continued each Tuesday **public benefit in relation to** through to Friday. **these objects (include within** Every Monday the food bank and our One World Cafe was open to those **this section the statutory** in need, providing social support as well as much needed food supplies **declaration that trustees have** for families.

Section D Achievements and erformance p The life of the chapel has returned, more or less to normal after the Covid **Summary of the main** restrictions of the past two years. The main achievements of our chapel, **achievements of the charity during the year** within the past twelve months, should be considered in the light of the COVID-19 restrictions that came into force from 23rd March 2020. We are pleased to say that the One World Hub continues to provide a base for much needed help to isolated and vulnerable adults from within the Oldham community. The Monday Food Bank and Cafe service is no longer operating. However, the cafe has been open to those in need on Saturday and Sunday mornings throughout the winter and spring. This commitment has been reduced to Sunday mornings; for the present Summer period. Also, the One World Folk Club meeting on the third Thursday of each month returned last October 2021. Moreover, other evening activities, a Pentecostal congregation and a Zen Buddhist group, are once again using the building. The building interior, exterior and the chapel grounds remain well maintained. We invest in maintaining and continually seeking to improve the fabric of the building. Our main achievement, taking everything into account is that we are pleased to announce with some pride, confidence and gratitude, that through our commitment to regular weekly worship and service to the community, we are well placed to weather the uncertainties of the immediate future.

**OLDHAM UNITARIAN CHAPEL including the One World centre**
## **REPORT TO THE MEMBERS ON THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**
## **YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021**
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2021 set out on pages 9 to 11.
## **Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner**
As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).
The charity’s trustees consider an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the 2011 Act, and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility as independent examiner to:
- ~ examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act
- ~ follow the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act, and
- ~ to state whether particular matters have come to my attention
## **Basis of Independent Examiners Report**
My examination was carried out in accordance with the 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 of 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 I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.
## **Independent Examiners Statement**
I have completed my examination for the year ended 31 December 2021.
I can confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
- ~ accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act or
- ~ the accounts do not accord with the accounting records to comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
