means of Christian instruction, evangelisation, the relief of sickness and poverty, education and the
advancement of the Christian faith generally.

of Jesus.
This is being achieved by the following means:
providing for leadership in the Church, fully-financed resourcing and premises in which to meet and
from which to operate;
adopting a planned programme of Bible teaching and practical training, under the guidance of the
Holy Spirit, in order to equip and encourage members of, and adherents to, the Church in their
Christian lives and their involvement in Uckfield and the surrounding communities:
caring for members of the Church and others with whom the Church is associated, particularly when
sickness or poverty is needing to be relieved,.
evangelisation of non-christians in Uckfield and the surrounding communities..
sending people out from the Church proclaiming the Gospel message on short and long-term
projects in the United Kingdom and overseas; and
maintaining our involvement as part of an apostolic movement, i.e. Newfrontierslcatalyst.

OBJEcfivES AND ACTIVITIES
Grant making policie5
Under the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the charity has the power to make charitable grants,
donations or other payments (including informal loans) to individuals, organisations, charities, churches,
societies or institutions locally, nationally or internationally as the trustees think fit.
In preparing the Annual Budget, decisions are made as to expenditure of funds in the form of grants to
variou5 bodie5 and individuals. Those decisions are based on a consideration of the extent to which the
work being carried out by those bodies or individuals coincides with the overall aims and objectives of
King's Church Uckfield.
Grants are made lal for individual projects and Ib} on a time basis. Time-based grants are made on two
bases:
i} for one year only,
li} for a period of years.
Grants made for one year only may be repeated in following years. Grants made for a period of years are,
nonetheless, reviewed at least annually. In all cases, the actual payment of a grant is contingent upon there
being sufficient funds within the charity, and the receiving body or individual continuing with the work for
which the grant was originally made or carrying out such other work as coincides with the overall aims and
objectives of King's Church Uckfield as set out in the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and which
the trustees desire to support.
Volunteers
The Elders, one of whom is a salaried employee, are appointed for the purpose of leading the work of the
Church. They are assisted by two part-time members of paid staff.
Ordinarily the substantial remainder of the work is carried out by other members of the Church who are
volunteers, receiving no payment for their services, but giving themselves to the work as they follow the
call of Jesus Christ on their lives to serve Him and make His way known in the communities in which they
live.
Estimates of the value of the time offered by volunteers in the church of around 6,400 hours over the year,
with
an
approximate
value of £78,144 (based
on
the
Living Wage
Foundation's
Ihttp://www.livingwage.org.ukl 2024 real living wage rate of £12.21 per hour).
The Trustees are very grateful to all the volunteers who serve the church so faithfully in many and varied
roles.

Achievements and performance
Safeguarding
King's Church Uckfield takes seriously the responsibility to protect and safeguard the welfare of children
and young people entrusted to its care, and have a robust Child Protection Policy. We have detailed
guidelines and procedures relating to child abuse suspicions or allegations and ensure that these
procedures are known and followed by all workers.
All those volunteering to work with children and young people are subject to a stringent application and
induction process including DBS Enhanced Disclosure, references, declaration of conviction, interview and
supervised probationary period. Training is offered to all of our workers with this being required at least
once every three years.
Overseas support
As stated above, the overall aims and objectives of the Church include sending people out from the Church
proclaiming the Gospel message on short and long-term projects in the United Kingdom and overseas. The
overseas work, with which members of the Church have been involved, and to which direct financial
support has been given, has continued and includes the following:
support of two members of King's Church Uckfield working in Bolivia, providing help to their church
plant which has recently started and been accepted as part of Newfrontiers;
support of Church members and staff visiting partner churches in Bulgaria; and
iiil support of the church in Mezdra, particularly to allow them to afford a church leader. This has been
shared with Christ Church Hai15ham and is evidence of us working together to achieve shared aims.
Pastoral support
The Elders of the Church provide pastoral support for the members of the church including marriage
counselling and spiritual advice/counselling. This is available to non-members of the church in varying
degrees as those wanting support will often not be Christians and may not concur with the Christian
foundation of any advice or support given.

STRATEGIC REPORT
Financial review
Principal funding sources
The financing of the overall aims of the Church has been achieved almost exclusively by gifts, donations
and offerings from the Church membership and others attending the Church. This forms around 82% of the
church's non-specific income and has during the year under review been bolstered by additional one-off
gifts from members of the church.
Tax relief obtained from HM Revenue & Customs as a consequence of giving made by donors under the
Gift Aid Scheme contributes a further 17% of non-specific income.
The remaining 1% of income is received from miscellaneous sources and bank interest.
Expenditure
The expenditure of the church in fulfilling the overall aims described earlier has been almost exclusivelv
concentrated on:
maintaining and expanding the resource base of leadership and staff-
satisfying the conditions of the River House lease, where we continued to maintain our office into
2025;
financing the Church's outreach programmes;
giving to projects in the U K and overseas as the Church has sought to carry out its aims,. and
making improvements to our new premises, The King's Centre, on the industrial estate, formally
known as Tribune House.
All assets of the charity have been and are being used to further the general work of the church, as well as
to relieve sickness and poverty and advance the Christian faith generally, in the United Kingdom and
abroad.
The funds of the charity have been applied as described in the Income and Expenditure account, and the
accounts of the Restricted Funds.
The General Fund surplus occurring under the charity in the year ended 31 March 2025 amounted to
£18,321. The Trustees recommend that the balance of £202,441 be carried forward.
The Trustees are not aware of any needs beyond the budgeted normal running costs of the charity in
fulfilling its objects and aims.
At the end of the year, the Trustee5 held total reserves (that is those funds that are freely available),
derived from income received throughout the year, amounting to £1,242,942. Thi5 sum, apart from the
balances relating to the various Restricted Fund5, is not intended to be retained to cover any particular
contingency, but is to be used to further the work of the church in the manner described earlier. Such
reserves may, therefore, be more appropriately understood to be an overall balance of income (including
the brought forward balances) over expenditure that has been reported in the financial statements at the
end of the financial year.
The Building Fund, created with the aim of accruing Su￿1c￿ent funds to aid in the purchase of a suitable
building in the centre of the town, had ongoing opportunities for members, non-members and external
churches to donate towards during this financial period.
Page 5

King's Church Uckfield Limited
Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 March 2025
STRATEGIC REPORT
In addition to this, the trustees created a designated fund in 2020 with a starting balance of £50,000 which
is to be used in the first instance to commence investigations into the potential of buildings as they arise.
further £40,000 was added to this designated fund in March 2021. This designated fund was used to pay
for all additional costs surrounding the building purchase price, such as fees and surveys. Further
opportunities to add to it were offered to church member5 to pay toward5 the required building works for
us to inhabit the building.
Investment policy and performance
Under the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the charity has the power to invest in any way the
trustees wish.
Any charity general funds surplus to immediate requirements are held in a savings account. The current
account is kept at a practical level so that invoices can be satisfied whilst securing the best interest rate for
the majority of the church's funds. The funds available in the deposit account are monitored closely on an
ongoing basis with any need for additional funds being acted upon appropriately.
Funds received for specific purposes but not required for immediate use are invested in a variety of
accounts to achieve maximum growth in the fund with no risk to the basic fund and ensure that these
monies are covered under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
Reserves policy
The trustees of King's Church Uckfield {KCUI see significant value in holding cash reserves with the aim of
eliminating the impact of one or more unforeseen, short-term financial shocks. Such shocks will typicallv
involve a significant, non-forecast fall in income and/or substantial, unplanned and unavoidable
expenditure.
The intent of these reserves is to enable the church to continue to operate for a defined period of time,
continuing to work towards its aims and objectives, while the trustees fully assess the situation and
formulate a medium to long-term plan, if felt necessary.
To help the trustees calculate the correct level of cash reserves, we will take guidance from the
recommendations issued by the Charity Commission of England & Wales. The minimum level will be based
on the period of time we are looking to cover and the current level of church liabilities (such as salarie5 and
building costs). We will however also take account of the future level of church liabilities, where a
significant change 15 expected in the short to medium-terrn.
With the church's stated goal of owning its own building, the trustees considered it prudent to increase our
reserves over a five-year period from their 2018119 level of £15.7k to £36k li.e. aimed to be £5k per
annum). This higher Reserves level will increase the period of cover from 4 weeks to 8 weeks and will also
allow for the significant step-change in staffing and building costs associated with running our own building.
At the beginning of the 2023-24 financial year, we had already reached our target of £36k.
The trustees will continue to make a decision at the end of each financial year as to the desired level of
reserves. Only surplus funds will be used to further bolster our reserves. If no surplus funds are available,
the trustees may decide to take more surplus funds into the reserves in subsequent years and/or may
decide to extend the period over which the reserves reach their new targeted level.

STRATEGIC REPORT
Future plans
The main development in the next year 15 the continued rebuilding of our presence in Uckfield after the
pandemic stripped away many of our community groups. Our aim for this last year and continues to be
that as a church we become stronger and more resilient financially, technologically, practically and
spiritually.
We have succeeded in looking for a church building to make a permanent home to increase our capacity
for groups, events and community projects. Now that we have that space, we are looking at how we can
develop it further to better equip ourselves and increase our abilities as a church, as well as better serve
our local community.
This year we have run the Church on only one full-time and two part-time staff members, but were able to
increase the hours of one of our staff members from 7 to 21 hours. This has enabled us to manage and
operate our new building on a basic scale. The aim is that our staffing will increase in time as finances
allow.

Donations are is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement
to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured
reliably. Investment income is recognised on a receivable basis.
Grants
Government grants in respect of capital expenditure are credited to a deferred income account and
released to profit over the expected useful lives of the relevant assets in equal annual instalments.
Government grants of a revenue nature are credited to income so as to match them with the
expenditure to which they relate.
Expendlture
Liabilitie5 are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation
committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be
required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is
accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost
related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have
been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Grants payable are made to third parties in the furtherance of the charitable objectives. Where the
charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be
provided, such grants are only recognised in the statement of financial activities once the recipient
of the grant has provided the specific service or output. Grants payable without performance
conditions are only recognised in the accounts when a commitment has been made and there are
no conditions to be met relating to the grant which remain in the control of the charity.
Provisions for grants are made when the intention to make a grant has been communicated to the
recipient but there is uncertainty about either the timing of the grant or the amount of grant
payable.
