DIRECTORS’ AND TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022
The Directors and Trustees (whose details are shown in the reference and administrative information section of this report) are pleased to present their Annual Report together with the Financial Statements of the Charitable Company for the financial year ended 5 April 2022.
The Financial Statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and 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).
The Charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
Objects and Activities:
The Objects of the Charitable Company are for the benefit of the public as set out in the Memorandum and Articles of Association:
-
a) To advance the Christian Faith in accordance with the statement in such ways and in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the directors from time to time may think fit;
-
b) To relieve sickness and financial hardship and to promote and preserve good health by the provision of funds, goods or services of any kind including through the provision of counselling and support in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the directors from time to time think fit;
-
c) To advance education in such ways and in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the directors from time to time think fit.
Summary of the main activities in relation to these objectives:
Open meetings for all ages for the purpose of evangelism, teaching and instruction in the Christian Faith Meeting and activities for 5-11 year olds
Meeting and activities for 11-16 year olds Meeting and activities for 55+ year olds Pastoral care Counselling services Food/Clothing provision for the under privileged Pillars Café
The Directors/Trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the Directors/Trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.
Achievements and Performance:
This year has still been impacted by the aftereffects of Covid. This has continued to affect both income and attendance. Full recovery may take some time. We have, however, sought in the best ways possible to continue to serve, provide, and reach out through the remaining means available.
Q stands for Quest which expresses our desire to emphasize our commitment to creating and upholding a safe, nonjudgemental environment in which people can voice and express their questions about God, spirituality, the world, etc. We continue to create a community of inclusion and acceptance on every level and continue to reinforce this. We continue to explore ways of development going forward.
The services provided, activities engaged in and appointments made are all in an endeavour to effectively fulfil the objectives of the Church as set out in the Memorandum and Articles of Association.

DIRECTORS’ AND TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022 (CONTINUED)
Achievements and Performance (continued):
Our general church services have been reduced to one each week. The situation is under constant review as we move away from the risks associated with Covid. Throughout the pandemic we continued to provide talks and teaching through online media outlets. We have experienced considerable growth in our recipients of this service with the numbers and influence continuing to increase. This has very much become the modern-day mode of mission. This has meant that the overall size of the church community has become larger, but with many adherents scattered across the globe.
Pastoral care and advice has continued to be provided at various levels and is available 24/7. The success of this is seen in the testimony by those who have received it.
The activities of the church normally reported on in this document have not yet been reinstituted in the aftermath of Covid.
We did find a way to serve the community during this time by providing a suitable venue for funerals of all faiths and those without and to our local Undertakers. This was especially helpful during a time where numbers allowed greatly depended on the size and safety of the building. Having such a large facility allowed us to provide this, drawing great appreciation from those we served.
Creative arts have always been a major focus of the church in the outworking of its ministry. We continued to produce material online including a major production. This reached a very wide audience and received great reviews and notes of appreciation.
We continue to make the Church’s ministry available free of charge via our website and other media outlets enabling us to reach a wider audience with our message.
The Church has performed well in its engaging of opportunities to fulfil its purpose despite the great difficulties caused by the pandemic. The Church continues to resource itself through the voluntary giving of the people to continue its vision. We have and are pursuing other support and funding wherever possible.
Financial Review:
The financial activities of the Charitable Company cover the year ended 5 April 2022.
Investment and reserves policies:
As a Christian Church, the exercising of Faith in the area of provision is an inherent part of our belief. The necessity to uphold this belief has an impact on our reserves policy. As the primary expression of the Christian Faith is inseparably bound up in giving sacrificially, we do not believe in retaining excessive funds as a safeguard to unrealised adverse financial circumstances. Also, as a body with no external funding the people belonging to the Church understand the process of faith and faithfulness in giving. Having said that, the Directors/Trustees have acted responsibly over the years building a considerable amount of equity in the properties owned by the Church consisting of the church building itself, a large house (used as an office, recording studio etc.) and one smaller but valuable house adjacent to the Church (used as an extension to the café and an apartment for visiting ministers or emergency accommodation for the needy). Some or all the equity in these properties could be realised if a need arose. Funds which are not needed for immediate use are placed in an investment account with easy access to be drawn on as and when required.
Details of any funds materially in deficit: No funds were in deficit at the year end.
Principal sources of funds: The principal source of finance remains the voluntary giving of the people through “tithes & offerings” - £76,021 (2021 - £75,721).
Other income sources:
Children & Youth - £300 (2021 - £50) Room Hire - £8,400 (2021 - £5,622)

Q YORK
DIRECTORS’ AND TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022 (CONTINUED)
Financial Review (continued):
We are constantly exploring ways by which added ministries will be either totally or partially supported by their own income.
How expenditure supports key activities of the charity: The three main areas supported by the expenditure are:
Staff - £98,436 (2021 - £101,699). Buildings & Equipment - £65,201 (2021 - £63,250). Mission and Charity Grants - £12,357 (2021 - £12,844).
A more detailed breakdown of the expenditure on charitable activities is shown in notes 7 and 8 to the financial statements on page 15.
The charity’s outturn for the year was a deficit of £102,177 (2021 – deficit £108,454), which when deducted from reserves brought forward, gave rise to unrestricted funds to carry forward at the year end of £1,078,850 (2021 - £1,181,027), of which £1,049,628 relates to the revaluation reserve and designated funds.
Plans for future periods
Our Senior Pastor decided to retire from his role on 28 March 2022.
Our plans for the coming year and leadership are still very much subject to the unfolding impact of Covid, congregation levels, income, and the retirement of our Pastor.
We will continue to develop our identity and reach within the community and beyond through various styles and practices. It is our desire to connect more extensively and at a greater level with those on a spiritual journey who have an extensive portfolio of questions that some other spiritual communities are uncomfortable engaging with.
We will continue to look for ways to show love and acceptance and add value and purpose to people of all faiths and none within the city.
We will continue our overseas aid ministry and provide practical and educative help and support across our whole network of influence.
We will reassess our support of ministries overseas to ensure our support is directed to those places most needing it in line with current constraints.
We will continually review our practices and procedures to ensure we are giving best value in all areas of the charity.

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charitable Company by taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud or other irregularities.

My independent examiner’s work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charitable Company’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charitable Company, the Charitable Company’s members as a body and the Charitable Company’s trustees as a body for my independent examiner’s work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.

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

-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charitable Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
the financial statements 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
-
the financial statements 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 financial statements to be reached.

Q YORK
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) Basis of Preparation
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)), and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. They are drawn up on the historical cost accounting basis, as modified by the revaluation of freehold property.
Q York meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s). The functional currency in the financial statements is £ sterling.
The Charitable Company is a private company limited by guarantee, incorporated in England. The address of the registered office is: 13 Priory Street, York, North Yorkshire, YO1 6ET. Each of the trustees is liable to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 towards the assets of the charity in the event of liquidation.
b) Going Concern
The Charitable Company depends on its existing bank facilities to meet its day to day working capital requirements. Current forecasts indicate that the Charitable Company expects to be able to operate within these facilities for the foreseeable future. These facilities are renewed annually and are not guaranteed for the period covered by the going concern review. The Charitable Company has a reasonable expectation that the church has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. They continue to believe the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate in preparing the financial statements.
c) Incoming resources
Incoming resources
-
Incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when: - the Charitable Company becomes entitled to the resources
-
the Directors/Trustees are virtually certain they will receive the resources
-
the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability
Incoming resources with related expenditure
Where incoming resources have related expenditure the incoming resource and related expenditure are reported gross in the SOFA.
Grants and Donations
Grants and donations are only included in the SOFA when the Charitable Company has an unconditional entitlement to the resources.
Tax reclaims on Donations and Gifts
Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the SOFA at the same time as the gift to which they relate.
Gifts in kind
Gifts in kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the Charitable Company or the amount actually realised. Gifts in kind for sale or distribution are included in the accounts as gifts only when sold or distributed. Gifts in kind for use by the charitable company 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 Charitable Company is reasonably quantifiable, measurable and material. The value placed on these resources is the estimated value to the Charitable Company of the service or facility received.

Any shortfall in restricted funds expenditure is transferred from the unrestricted funds.
h) Debtors

j) Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in a transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
k) 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 are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
