## **TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT (INCORPORATING DIRECTORS' REPORT)** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

The trustees, who are the charity's directors for the purposes of company law, have pleasure in submitting the Report and Accounts for the year. 

## **Objects of the charity** 

The objects of the charity are the advancement of the Christian religion by knowing Christ and making Him known to others and in accordance with the statement of fundamental truths set out in the Memorandum and Articles of Association. 

The main normal activities of the charity that are undertaken in order to fulfil these objectives are: Christian worship, Bible study and prayer meetings, outreach, projects in the community and donations to other charities. 

## **Summary of the charity's main activities and achievements** 

2024 saw sustained attendance in our regular church activities such as Sunday services, weekly bible studies, small groups and community events. 

We ran our third holiday club within the Easter holidays which saw a good attendance of 32 children. The friday evening Discoverer's group (for primary school children) met consistently during term time with a regular attendance of between 5-10 children. We held our family fun day event in July at a local farm. The 'Coffee and More' outreach was held on 9 occassions with a variety of guest speakers sharing their testimonies. In September we had a Church weekend event with a day trip to Scarborogh followed by a day of teaching and prayer. 

The majority of the meetings including our prayer meetings and bible studies were held within the Methodist Church building in Boston Spa with the exception of the small groups which took place in the homes of our attendees. We continued to make our weekly sermons available online and used online meeting platforms for prayer meetings to provide for those unable to meet in person. 

Grants were given to Arab World Ministries, Compassion and Caring for Life. Other Christian charities and missions were also supported. 

In planning the activities the Trustees have applied the guidance on public benefit issued by the Charity Commission. 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

Responsibility for setting policy and for making operating decisions rests with the trustees who meet regularly to monitor the activities of the charity. New trustees are recruited and appointed by the existing trustees, by a majority vote. In January 2025, Phil Baraniak resigned from his position as Senior Pastor. The role is currently vacant and being covered by Elders of the Church, with support from volunteers within the congregation. The church has begun the process of recruiting a new Pastor. 

## **Financial review** 

During the year income decreased by £9,792, to £82,904, and expenditure increased by £7,281 to £81,486. As a result, a small net surplus of £1,418 is reported. The charity's net assets increased from the previous year to £145,237.

## **TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT (INCORPORATING DIRECTORS' REPORT)** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

## **Reserves policy** 

The trustees have determined that the charity should aim to hold unrestricted cash of no less than £26,500 (which equates to about 3 months' of unrestricted expenditure) so that the charity could continue to operate should income and / or expenditure vary adversely. At the year end, the charity held unrestricted cash of £145,242 and the charity is complying with its reserves policy. 

A building fund is maintained on the following basis: 

Any gift to the building fund will be unrestricted but earmarked for the potential building fund. The requirement for a building funding will be reviewed by the elders no later than 31 December 2025. After which, if the fund has not been spent, the requirement will be reviewed, and any monies potentially re-purposed, at 5 year intervals. 

## **Going concern** 

There are no going concern uncertainties. The budget for 2025 plans for a **£31,231** deficit to utilise more of the charities reserves. 

## **Key risks and uncertainties** 

The charity is exposed to various risks - be they operational, financial or reputational. The trustees review the charity's activities regularly to identify significant risks and, where possible, they take appropriate measures to mitigate those risks. 

## **Responsibilities of trustees under company law** 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charitable company as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including income and expenditure, for the financial year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

1. select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

2. observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

3. make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

4. state whether the applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

5. prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

## **Approval** 

This report, which has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies, was approved by the trustees and signed on their behalf by:

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity’s trustees of the Company (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 the Company 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 the Company 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.

## **THE KING'S CHURCH, BOSTON SPA** 

## **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

## **1 Statutory Information** 

The charity is a charitable company limited by guarantee and is incorporated in the United Kingdom. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page. 

## **2 Accounting Policies** 

These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention. 

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the "Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) ("the Charities SORP"), with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland ("FRS 102"), with the Companies Act 2006 and with the Charities Act 2011. The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity as set out in FRS 102. 

The principles adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. 

a) Going concern The trustees (who are the charitable company's directors for the purposes of company law) have assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. In particular the trustees have considered the charity's forecasts and projections and the possible implications should projected income and / or expenditure vary unexpectedly. The trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future. The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements. 

## b) Income 

Income including investment income is recognised in the period in which the charity becomes entitled to receipt, the amount receivable can be measured with reasonable certainty, and receipt is probable. For the most part, income is generally recognised when it is received. Income is only deferred when the charity has to fulfil conditions before becoming entitled to it or where the donor has specified that the income is to be expended in a future period. The charity relies on volunteers to carry out many of its activities. However, in accordance with the SORP, the value of these services has not been included in these financial statements as they cannot be reliably measured. 

Income from donations and legacies includes: 

- i) Recoverable gift aid. This is recognised when the related donation is received. Gift aid that has not been recovered by the balance sheet date is included as a debtor. 

- ii) Legacies. Income from legacies is recognised when a distribution is received from the estate or, if earlier, when the charity has been notified that a distribution will be made and the amount receivable can be measured reliably. 

Investment income represents income generated by the charity's assets and includes income from bank interest. 

## c) Expenditure 

Expenditure, including irrecoverable VAT, is recognised when it is incurred or, if earlier, when a legal or constructive obligation for a payment arises provided that it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 

The charity makes grants to other institutions and individuals to further its charitable objectives. Grants payable are recognised as constructive obligations arise, which is generally when the charity expresses a commitment to the recipient that can be measured reliably and then only to the extent that any conditions associated with the grant are outside of the control of the charity. 

Governance costs, which are included in expenditure on charitable activities but are identified separately in the notes to the accounts, includes costs associated with the independent examination of the financial statements, compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements and any other expenditure incurred on the strategic management of the charity. 

## d) Fund accounting 

- General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. Restricted funds are donations which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors; they include donations received from appeals for specific activities or projects.

## **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

## **2 Accounting Policies (cont.)** 

## e) Tangible fixed assets 

Items purchased or donated for the charity's own use are capitalised when the cost of purchased items, or the fair value of donated items, is more than £500 and the item is expected to benefit the charity over more than one accounting period. 

Depreciation is charged on a straight line basis so as to write down the value of each asset to its estimated residual value (if any) over its expected useful economic life.  To achieve this objective the following rates of depreciation are charged: 

Fixtures and Fittings 25% on cost Computer equipment 33.3% on cost 

The carrying values of tangible fixed assets are reviewed for impairment in periods when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. 

## f) Pension scheme arrangements 

The charity operates defined contribution pension scheme for its employees. Obligations for contributions to these schemes are recognised as an expense when the liability arises. The assets of these schemes are held separately from those of the charity in independently administered funds. 

## g) Taxation 

The company is a registered charity; it has taken advantage of the various reliefs from taxation available to charities and no tax is payable on the charity's income. 

## h) Exemption from preparing a cashflow statement 

The charity has taken advantage of an exemption conferred by the Charities SORP and has not prepared a cash flow statement. 

## i) Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement 

- The trustees do not consider that there are any material sources of estimation or uncertainty at the balance sheet date that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying values of assets and liabilities in the next reporting period.
