The Charity is constituted under a Trust Deed dated 31st August 2007 and Charity number is 1123843 on the central registered of the Charity Commission of England and Wales. The principal objectives of the Charity are the advancement of the Christian faith worldwide and relief of poverty.

Recruitment and Appointment of New Trustees

Trustees and Members of Committees are appointed by the Church Ministerial Board using basic skill and assessment method. Priority is given to criteria required to have an effective and efficient Board and Committees. To this end, the Board is carefully grafted with right mix of skills and experience to discharge its duties and ensure effectives governance and management. The trustees serve a term of two years which is renewable at the discretion of the Board. The management of the charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are appointed and co-opted under the terms of the trust Deed.

Organizational Structure and Decision Making

The church is organized so that the trustees meet regularly to manage its affairs. There is a full-time Minister and Volunteers, who manage the day-to-day administration of the church.

Related Party Relationships

RCCG Rivers of Love is a member of Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG)which has Parishes all over the world. The relationship is governed by an Agreement for common purposes between the parishes and RCCG.

Risk Management

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, particularly those relating to the operations and finance and are satisfied with the risk management systems in place to mitigate any exposure. Risk is an everyday part of charitable activity and managing it effectively is essential if the trustees are to achieve their key objectives and safeguard their charity's funds and assets. Therefore, the Charity has developed appropriate Risk Management Framework which consists of the Risk Management Policy and the Risk Management Procedures outline in the operational guidelines.

Investment Policy

The Trustees have decided that at present, fund should be retained in Banks and Building Societies, and as far as possible in interest bearing accounts.

Going Concern

After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue operation for foreseeable future. The Charity has adopted the Going concern basis in preparing the financial statement.

Achievements And Performance

Individual donations and gifts continued to be the main sources of income. Tithe, Pledge, Building and Thanksgiving offering amounted to £41,553 (2021: £35,717). Other incoming resources was from Gift Aid reclaimed. The total of these amounted to £20,876 (2020: £0.00) for the year. All the Voluntary income is unrestricted.

Financial Review

The financial Statements cover the operations of Redeemed Christian Church of God River of Love, Woolwich, London. For the year ended 31 March 2022, the Statement of Financial Activities shows total incoming resources of £62,430(2021: £36,367). This was spent mainly on charitable activities and total expenditure amounted to £44,706 (2021: £32,541). We closed the year with a surplus of £17,723 (2021: surplus of £3,826).This deficit has been deducted from the reserves against future accounting periods.

Reserve Policy

The trustees have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets (the free reserve) held by the church should be 3 months of annual expenditure. At this level, the trustees feel that they would be able to continue the current activities of the church in the event of significant drop in funding.

Statement of Trustees Responsibilities

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards(United Kingdom Generally Accepted).The law applicable to charities in England and wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

a) select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently

b) observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

c) make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

d) state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures explained in the financial statements;

e) prepare the financial statements on the 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 charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. The Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The above report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime as set out in Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 and in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102).

==> picture [205 x 63] intentionally omitted <==

Freehold investment property

Investment properties are measured initially at cost and subsequently at fair value at each balance sheet date and are not depreciated. All gains or losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise.

Stocks

Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Donated items of stock are recognised at fair value which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay for the items on the open market.

Trade and other debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Page 11

REEDEEMED CHRISTIAN CHURCH OF GOD RIVERS OF LOVE PARISH Notes to the Accounts

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings or current liabilities. In the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the company's cash management.

Trade and other creditors

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the 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.

Research and development

Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred.

Foreign currencies

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are recorded at the rate of exchange on the date that the transaction occurred.

All exchange differences are are taken into account in arriving at net income/expenditure.

Leased assets

Where the charity enters into a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease.

Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to charity are classified as operating leases.

Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the charity at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet date as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the charity's policy on borrowing costs.

Assets held under finance leases are depreciated in the same way as owned assets.

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis.

Pension costs

The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the company has no further payments obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds.

Page 12

REEDEEMED CHRISTIAN CHURCH OF GOD RIVERS OF LOVE PARISH Notes to the Accounts

Receipt of donated goods, facilities and services

All donated goods, facilities and services received are recognised within incoming resources and expenditure at an estimate of the value to the charity.

2 Company status

The company is a private company limited by guarantee and consequently does not have share capital.
