TRUSTEES' REPORT

The Trustees have pleasure in submitting their report, and accounts for the period to 31st March 2025 The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out on page 5 and comply with the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP 2015 ) and the applicable law.

Constitution, objective of the charity, principal activities and organisation of our work

The charity is constituted under a Constitution adopted on 15th March 2004. The charity is governed by a board of which trustees are represented. They meet regularly to review, plan activities and monitor financial position

The objectives of the charity as set out in the Declaration of Trust are:

(a) The advancement of the Christian faith.

(b) The relief of persons who are in poverty, sick or aged.

The ministry was involved in Christian outreach programmes designed to increase Christian awareness and spread the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Public benefits, development activities and achievements in the year

When planning our activities in the year, the trustees considered the Charities Commission's guidance on public benefit, and in particular the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion.

We helped ordinary people in the community to live out their faith through worship and prayer; learning about the Gospel and developing their knowledge and trust in Jesus Christ. We organised gifts and presents for the local people and some members who were bereaved.

The Trustees are pleased to report that the Church continued to be successful spiritually by ministering to many people. The church is currently constructing a church building in Ghana and will continue to support Christian missions work in Ghana especially the branch church.

Review of the financial position

The charity's total income this year of £26,514 Increased by 48% compared to last year's income of £17,953. All of these are attributable to the unrestricted funds and no fund is allocated to restricted projects.

Reserve policy

It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the reserves of the charity at about 3 months of unrestricted expenditure. This provides sufficient funds to cover emergency expenditure that may arise from time to time. The charity will seek to maintain this level throughout the year.

Risk management

The charity has assessed all the major risks to which the charity is exposed to, in particular those related to operations and finances of the charity, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to major risks.

Board of Trustees

The members of the board of trustees during the year were:

Mrs Felicia Konadu Mr Eric Arhin Mr Dominic Asamoah Owusu

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF NEW CREATION EVANGELISTIC MINISTRY

CHARITY NO 1116482

I report on the Financial Statements of the charity for the year ended 31st March 2025, which are set out on pages 5 to 8 below.

RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 (2) of the Charities Act 2011 (The 2011 Act ) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to :

examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act,
follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission
[ under section 145(5)(b) ] of the 2011 Act, and
state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Trust and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or 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 no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair' view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention :-

1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or
2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
