4 FINANCIAL REVIEW
In 2022, the level of regular financial support W35 rnaintained at the 2021 level desplte the loss of
long-standing tnembers who have either moved ro new èreès or 8one home to be with the Lord. In
addition to this, a special 8ift day raised an 3dditional £4000 to support missions in Hungary and
Spain with a further £IIOOO or so to support churches In the Ukraine facing the fall-out from the
Russian invasion In February. We also Saw a 518niticant additional income from Word Partners in the
US to support Aeron Caldeo and his family.
There was also the promise of a signiticant legècy followin8 the home call of Edie Rcbertson 3t the
end of 2021. Bythe end of 2022. we had received £185000 as part of the le83cy. The balance came
early in 2023 8iving 3 total £222,209. Whilst there are no restrictions on how these funds may be
speni by the church. the intention is to use this in the tnediurTI to long term for a significant project,
suth a5 providing or developing a building suitable for our growin8 needs.
Our operating expenditure inireaged by £10,000 over 2022 as a result of increased expenditure on
both the maintenance of the church building and the rental property next door. Thi5 was partly
mitigated by saving5 in salaries with the loss of the church manager role and the ministry trainee
moving to another church The forec3si operating loss for 2022 was £13,000 and the actual
operating loss was just over £18,000. We exclude legacy income when describin6 operèting income
and expenditure.
At 31st December 2022 un-restrirted cash reserves, excluding legacies, were just over £76,(YJO

## **7 RESERVES POLICY** 

- The trustees have adopted a formal Reserves Policy. In summary this policy requires the Trustees to seek to hold reserves sufficient to cover 

1. Designated reserves - Investment in land and property strategic to the Church's activities and income 

2. Specific reserves - reserves that may be needed from time to time to fund specific large expenditure 

3. General reserves - reserves held against day to day operational risks, in particular to provide a period of 12-18 months for the Trustees to seek to replace a material loss of income before a 

significant rationalisation plan would need to be implemented. General reserves would normally be expected to cover around 3-6 months of regular underlying expenditure for this purpose. 

The Church's reserves are currently above the target range set by the Trustees following some signifcant legacy income. The Trustees will be considering how to respond to this situation in 2023. 

## **8 PRINCIPAL FUNDING SOURCES** 

The principal funding sources are: 

- Regular giving from the church members and other visitors to the church 

- Rental income 

o From the house adjacent to the church building (49 New England Road) o From Mayflower Playgroup use of the church building. 

- Occasional donations from other churches, charities or local authorities 

- Fees charged to cover the costs of major activities such as children's camps 

## **9 PUBLIC BENEFIT** 

The trustees halie complied with the duty in section 4 of the 2006 Charities Act to have due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission in respect of public benefit. 

## **10 POST BALANCE SHEET EVENTS** 

None 

## **11 CONCLUSIONS** 

Church life returned to normal during 2022, although the process was not always easy with a widespread need to reconnect and re-emphasise our shared life together under God. We were grateful that we are able to meet in person as normal though with our ongoing livestream of Sunday services for those unable to attend. Our various children and families' ministries, ministries to internationals and also to seniors in our community are now running a full schedule again and it has been a delight to continue to serve old friends as well as new ones. We are also excited to have grown our Grace Advocacy team and continue other community ministries. 

Our verse for the year from Psalm 121 encourages us to look to God for our help in all circumstances. As well as an encouragement to us it reminds us that Jesus is the answer to the needs of people all around us who do not know him. If you want to find out more about what we believe and why we have such confidence in our hope, then we welcome all to our Sunday services or you can get in touch with us through our website at www.cchh.org.uk.

## **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** 

Since the Company’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act.

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.

forecasts and projections and the possible Implications should proiecled income and l or
expenditure vary unexpectedly. The trustees have concluded that there is a re8sonable expectation
that the ¢harty has 8dequ8te resources lo continue lo operate for the foreseeable future. The
charity therefore continues lo adopt the going concern basis In preparing ils financial statements.
bl Income
Income including investment income is recognised in the period in which the charity becomes
entrtled lo ￿ceIpt, 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 15 only
deferred when the chaiity has to fuLlil conditions before becoming entrtled lo it or where the donor
ha5 Specified that the Income Is lo be expended In a lulure period.
Income from donations includes..
il Recoverable gift aid. This is recognised when the rel8led donation is received. Grft aid that
has not been recovered by the balance sheet date is included as a debtor.
ill The charity relies on volunteers to carry out many ol its activities. However. in accordance with
the SORP, the value of these services has not been included in these financial statements as
iiil Legacies. Income from legacies is recognised when a distribution is received from the eslale
or, if earlier, when the charity has been nolrfied that a distribution wll be made and the amount
receivable can be measured reliably.
Investment income represents income generated by the charity's assets and includes income from
letting the charity's property and bank interest.
