CONNECTIONS TRUST

TRUSTEES' REPORT

The trustees, who are directors for the purposes of company law, present the annual report together with the financial statements of the charitable company for the year ended 31 March 2022.

Objectives and activities

Objects and aims

The objects of the trust are to advance Christian religion and support missions, projects and workers overseas. Helping the poor and needy.

Public benefit

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.

Achievements and performance

Review of activites

The work of Connections continues in the UK and overseas. During the year we have been unable to hold a European conference face to face but have held one on zoom. Churches in the UK, Europe and Africa have been helped both on zoom and by visits.

As part of Connections we have the Grace City Bible School as an offering and a good number of students from Connection churches have participated in the courses. The Directors of Connections are all on the board of the bible school and 3 of them are teachers.

We also have a prayer group called Heart of Prayer who have a UK meeting and also meeting in India and Poland.

A music teaching ministry regarding worship is also under our cover.

In June 2019 we had a major flood in the office which was the subject an insurance claim. It has taken a long time to totally clean the office and we are nearly finished on refurbishment. We expect to be able to rent out more of the office to help with our administration costs.

We are now able to do 95% of the administration remotely which is the key which has allowed us to continue our work especially the overseas transfers.

We are very pleased to report that we have been able to continue with full transfers overseas as a result of our income for overseas help remaining steady. We currently give to Guyana, Philippines, Uganda, Thailand, regularly and have also given to India.

All of these areas are doing well. The Philippines work is starting churches monthly and is strong on evangelism. The work in Guyana, which was once a very poor country has become more mature as the economy of the country has picked up dramatically.

We support children’s homes, pastors and workers, bible students, and a missionary.

CONNECTIONS TRUST

TRUSTEES' REPORT

Our Investment Policy is such that we use current and deposit accounts only, not having enough finance to use other investment.

Reserve Policy. The Trustees policy is to cover all designated money.

Risk Policy. We have narrowed our risk by switching to a guaranteed rent on our flat.

We need to increase the giving to administration.

Accounts are reconciled monthly.

Another major risk factor is if money was not used for the designated purpose. Firm controls are in place in the UK and visits are made overseas to check the use of funds.

We have an equal opportunities policy in place and strongly believe that all are equal.

Connections would not exist or be able to help anyone if it was not for the wonderful donors and our thanks go to them.

Public Benefit

Connections Trust works in the UK with churches and leaders plus feeding the hungry and homeless. We continue to send money for clinics and to work with those who cannot afford medicine. We support children’s homes in Uganda, Philippines, Guyana and India. We also support schools.

We help to advance the gospel through supporting workers in France, Thailand, India, Guyana, Philippines and Uganda. We believe in helping local people to achieve education and we help in Guyana, Philippines, Uganda and Thailand. In many of these countries we also help relieve poverty.

In the statements under Public Benefit we set points that clearly show that we are meeting our charitable objectives.

Financial review

Income for the year amounted to £98,963 (2021: £126,798) and expenditure £92,409 (2021:99,266). The surplus was added to fund brought forward with general funds being £342,630 and restrcted funds £77,281 at the year end.

Policy on reserves

The trustees have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the charity's needs. This is based on the charity's size and the level of financial commitments held. The trustees aim to ensure the charity will be able to continue to fulfil its charitable objectives even if there is a temporary shortfall in income or unexpected expenditure. The trustees will endeavour not to set aside funds unnecessarily.

CONNECTIONS TRUST

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CONNECTIONS TRUST

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022 which are set out on pages 7 to 21.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity’s trustees of Connections Trust (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’).

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of Connections Trust are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner’s statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of Connections Trust as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)].

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.

CONNECTIONS TRUST

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

1 Charity status

The charity is limited by guarantee, incorporated in England, and consequently does not have share capital. Each of the trustees is liable to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 towards the assets of the charity in the event of liquidation.

2 Accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Statement of compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: 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) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). They also comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011.

Basis of preparation

Connections Trust meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.

Going concern

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern nor any significant areas of uncertainty that affect the carrying value of assets held by the charity.

Income and endowments

All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of the income receivable can be measured reliably.

Page 9

CONNECTIONS TRUST

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

Donations and legacies

Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance by the charity before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.

Gifts in kind

Gifts in kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount actually realised. Gifts in kind for sale or distribution are included in the accounts as gifts only when sold or distributed by the charity. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SOFA as incoming resources when receivable.

Donated services and facilities

These are only included in incoming resources (with an equivalent amount in resources expended) where the benefit to the charity is reasonably quantifiable, measurable and material. The value placed on these resources is the estimated value to the charity of the service or facility received.

Gift aid

Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the SOFA in the same financial period as the gift to which they relate.

Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.

Expenditure

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category.

Charitable activities

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Grant expenditure

These are only recognised in the accounts when a commitment has been made and there are no conditions to be met relating to a grant which remain in control of the charity.

Page 10

CONNECTIONS TRUST

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

Taxation

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

Tangible fixed assets

Individual fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation and amortisation

No depreciation is charged to freehold property as the property is maintained to such a standard that the estimated residual value is not less than cost.

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:

Asset class Depreciation method and rate
Land and buildings 0%
Furniture and equipment 25% on cost

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Liabilities

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.

Page 11

CONNECTIONS TRUST

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

Fund structure

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.

Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.

Pensions and other post retirement obligations

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme which is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the charity has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.

Financial instruments

The company 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 are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
