| Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year |
We are pleased to say that the One World Hub, that operates from our premises each Tuesday, during the day through to Friday continues to provide a base for much needed help to isolated and vulnerable adults from within the Oldham community. The chapel's cafe has also been open to those in need on Sunday mornings throughout the year. At Christmas with support from Action Together Oldham and the charity, Ukeff we were able to host on Christmas Day, lunch for over a hundred people who were referred to us as being in need. A Christmas gift to each guest was also provided. Afterwards, food and gifts was taken to those who could not attend due to the lack of public transport. Also, the Oldham Folk Club, organised by the minister, meets on the third Thursday of each month. As previously stated, other evening activities, include the use of the building by a Pentecostal congregation and a Zen Buddhist group. The chapel has a website and a Facebook page the folk club also has a Facebook page, these are kept up to date by the minister as we continue reach out to the community. 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. |

REPORT TO THE MEMBERS ON THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2022 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 2022.
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.
