Furthermore, the Trustees meet regularly to review and discuss the strategies and activities and evaluate the public interest and objectives of both the charity and Charity Commission.

Grant is given to Jesus Reigns Ministries, Inc, Manila, Philippines for the advancement of this purpose.

This allowance is then being spent for various ministerial purposes such as transportation, discipleship, evangelism, house or hospital visitation and many other form of pastoral care.
Achievements and Performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity
Our activities are open to whosoever wants to know God and experience His love. Some of our activities either stopped or slowed down with the commencement of the national lock down .
The Government imposed restrictions following the COVID-19 pandemic from March 2020 and our Charity switched to online activities as face to face meetings and gatherings were impossible. Most of our activities such as Worship services, Discipleship and leadership trainings, Kids and Youth services and the empowerment programmes were conducted over ZOOM. This afforded members, families, friends and visitors the blessings of the activities in the comfort of their homes. A great advantage of media broadcast is that interest groups could plug-in irrespective of their location around the world. Though multi-media tools worked well in the circumstance we found ourselves we ardently look forward to when we could meet in person for our activities.
We suspended hospital and house visitations, child dedication, water baptism, wedding and sports events during the lockdown. We did not embark on our ministerial mission to our European partners during the lockdown.
During lockdown, we set up COVID 19 Emergency fund to assist members and families in our communities who were in dire need of financial support. We provided food and household provisions to those who were in isolation and could not leave their homes. We also provided on-line faith based counselling and support to the people affected by the - pandemic. These initiatives proved to be very useful in the de stressing period.

Financial Review
Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period
The accounts of the charity show a gross income for the year of £273,724 (2019/20 - £388,225) of which £18,549 was restricted income. Included in this gross income was the charity's entitlement to HMRC's gift aid rebate of £49,389 (2019/20 - £186,924) which is a refund of the donors' tax on gifts and donations. The drop in gross income of 34% was principally due to a reduction of gift aid rebate.Three years of gift aid was provided for in 2019/20 against one in 2020/21.
The income excluding the HRMC gift aid refund for the year was £224,335 an increase of 11% (2019/20 - £201,301). This was a testimony of God's grace and mercy on our donors as the majority were able to hold on to their employments during the lockdown.
The resources expended on charitable activities during the year was £151,297 (2019/20 - £183,789). This decrease of 18% was due to reduced activities as aresult of the lockdown.
The charity recorded an operating surplus for the year of £122,427 (2019/20 - £204,436 ).
The total funds in the year increased by 38% to £448,348 compared to the previous year of £325,921.
The Trustees consider this financial performance satisfactory.
Reserves policy
The charity retains free reserves of £413,439 to be able to meet its future activities and to allow for repairs, maintenance and replacement of assets.
Going concern

The charity from time to time arranges training for the Trustees during the year to refresh them of their roles and responsibilities.

Funds held as custodian trustees on behalf of others
The charity does not hold funds or assets as custodians on behalf of others apart from that of the charity.
Future development plans
The charity will continue to build and improve on its current achievement, proclaiming the doctrine of love, peace, hope and grace that the Christian faith stands for. The charity will also continue to foster community involvement to build a better society.

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 of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Charities Act”) and that an independent examination is needed.
I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA) .
It is my responsibility to examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, 2011 follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Scope of examination
My examination was conducted in accordance with the with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. This 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 or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the charity's personnel concerning any such matters. I have not performed an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view .
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act;
-
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
-
the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form
-
and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2018 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.
I 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.
