## **TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020** 

The Trustees (who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006) present their annual report together with the financial statements of Mystical Rose (the charity) for the year ended 31 December 2020. In preparing this report and these accounts, the trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (‘the Charities SORP (FRS102)’) effective 1 January 2019, the special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies, applicable UK accounting standards and the Charities Act 2011. The directors and company secretary are listed on page 1. 

As well as Mystical Rose, the charity operates under the name of ‘Word & Spirit Ministries’. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES** 

The purpose of the charity is to preach and teach the gospel of Christ and to evangelise members of the Christian faith and others according to the doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church. 

In furtherance of this, the charity's activities are: 

- to write and develop Bible programmes and seminars; 

- to prepare and distribute books, magazines, brochures, newsletters and Gospel Tracts, using a variety of media; 

- to run and attend conferences, rallies, parish and school missions, retreats, youth programmes and leadership training; 

- to develop and conduct prayer meetings and missionary outreaches; and 

- to do all things ancillary to furthering the objectives of the charity. 

## **CHARITY ORGANISATION, STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

Mystical Rose is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 20 August 2008.  It is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission. 

The policy of the Charity is determined by the Trustees, who meet regularly as a Board.  Trustees are appointed in accordance with the provisions of the Articles of Association and receive no remuneration for their services.  The Trustees determine their number, as they consider necessary, although this may not be less than three.  If the Trustees consider a vacancy should be filled, they will decide whether specific skills are required to ensure an appropriate balance on the Board.  The Trustees use their best endeavors to recruit new trustees. 

In addition to the financial and legal documents for the Charity, all new Trustees are provided with the guidance available from the Charity Commission on the role of Trustees and are encouraged to be alert to issues that might affect the charity. 

## **TRUSTEES’ CORONAVIRUS IMPACT REPORT** 

The Trustees of the Mystical Rose are continuing to consider the impact of Covid-19 upon the Charity. 

## **Annual General Meeting (‘AGM’)** 

The AGM took place mid-October 2020. Due to Government restrictions Zoom was used to facilitate the meeting. The next AGM is scheduled for October 2021. 

## **Effects on the Charity** 

Due to Government restrictions in response to the coronavirus, the demand for the charity’s services stopped in March 2020. The Trustees do not anticipate this demand returning until at least the first quarter 2022. The Charity has not been physically able to deliver catechesis and evangelisation at Catholic churches, regional and national conferences, and HMP Prisons and thus all ‘on the road’ donation income has stopped.  Looking at the year to 31 December 2021, due to the ongoing uncertainty it is anticipated that there will be a slow return to ‘normal’. This will be monitored regularly by Trustees.

**MYSTICAL ROSE** 

## **TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020** 

## **TRUSTEES’ CORONAVIRUS IMPACT REPORT (CONTINUED)** 

## **Government Financial Support for Charities** 

Employees of the Charity were furloughed in March 2020 under the Government’s Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme and will continue to be furloughed whilst this scheme is available. The current scheme is available until the end of September 2021 however, there has been media reports that some MPs are calling for the scheme to be extended until the situation returns to normal. This continued uncertainty and the reluctance of Churches, Conferences and HMP Prison Chaplaincy departments to hold physical events it is hoped that the Government will extend this scheme. The Trustees will continue to monitor available support from the Government and the Trustees will also be exploring other sources of income. 

## **Staff and Volunteers** 

As mentioned in the previous paragraph, employees of the charity were furloughed in March 2020. The Trustees hope this scheme will be extended beyond September 2021. 

If the scheme is not extended the Charity has enough reserves to ensure staff are paid until the end of December 2021.  The charity will continue to take advantage of any financial support offered by the Government. The charity will also seek other sources of income from benefactors throughout 2021/2022. In recent years, a single benefactor has made several substantial donations which has enabled the Charity to meet its objects. However, this benefactor has currently ceased providing donations and has not (as yet) committed to donating in the future. 

Currently, the Charity receives approximately £5,000 per annum of monetary donations from eleven regular donors. Therefore, based on its current reserves, the Charity has enough financial resources to pay staff until the 31 December 2021. If other sources of donations, funding or a major beneficiary is not found then the Charity will have no option than to make staff redundant. 

The Charity does not rely on or have any volunteers. 

## **Using reserves and restricted funds** 

As previously mentioned, ‘on the road’ revenue has ceased and unfortunately at the beginning of the pandemic several in process grant applications were rejected due to the effects of coronavirus on their respective charitable trusts.   The Charity will seek other sources of income from benefactors throughout 2021/2022.  Charity staff will also try to raise the profile of Charitable giving and Tithing for Catholics. It is hoped that the Charity will produce video appeals on ‘Tithing for Catholic’ and release these during the year to 31 December 2021. 

To continue to strengthen the Charity’s financial position, the Trustees have agreed that the Charity will only purchase essential items using its reserves. The impact on the Charity’s reserves policy, and the level of reserves, are being monitored by the Trustees. 

The Charity does not have any restricted funds. 

## **Impacts on the Charity’s Objects** 

At this time, unfortunately the Charity’s objects cannot be fulfilled; therefore, the future aims and activities of the Charity are being continually reviewed. It is hoped that once Charity service users begin to ‘open up’, welcoming service providers like Mystical Rose, then these Charity objects can once again be fulfilled. 

## **Managing Financial Difficulties** 

Regular monitoring of the Government’s financial advice and guidance will be undertaken. In the event that the Charity finds itself in financial difficulty, the Trustees will work closely with other charitable bodies with a view to taking action in the best interest of the Charity. Currently there are no plans to orderly close the Charity. However, if the Charity becomes financially unsustainable then the Charity will be formerly closed.

**MYSTICAL ROSE** 

## **TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020** 

## **TRUSTEES’ CORONAVIRUS IMPACT REPORT (CONTINUED)** 

## **Charity Orderly Closure Plan** 

If the Government’s continued measures implemented severely affect the Charity’s financial sustainability, then the Charity’s governing document, specifically clauses 7 and 8, may be enacted to effect an orderly close-down or dissolution of the charity. 

## **REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES** 

From January to March 2020 and as part of ‘charities working together’, the Charity has continued working closely with the Community of Christ Prince of Peace (‘Prince of Peace’), a registered charity under number 1002998.  For the greater common good, Mr Stephens, in a consulting capacity, has worked with the Prince of Peace throughout January to March 2020. During which time Mr. Stephens project managed the Prince of Peace move from St. Emmiles, Oakhill Park to Montfort House, Crosby. 

Since March 2020, employees of the charity have been furloughed. Following government advice, Mr. Stephens has continued to volunteer for charities including the Community of Christ Prince of Peace. 

Throughout 2020, trustees of the Charity have maintained office administration and accounting records, including payroll, COVID-19 Job Retention Scheme claims, gift aid records, monthly accounting spreadsheets and financial records. Trustees have also continued to monitor Government guidelines concerning COVID-19 and also charity responsibilities. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW, RISK MANAGEMENT AND RESERVES** 

Donation income in the year, including gift aid tax recoverable, amounted to £22,889 (2019: £49,869); a fall of £26,980. The charity also received £27,372 under the Governments Job Retention Scheme, together with the employment allowance of £3,144. The charity’s expenditure fell by £3,817 to £49,618 (2019: £53,435), resulting in a net surplus for the year of £3,789 (2019: £566 deficit). 

At the year-end, the charity had unrestricted reserves of £16,455 (2019: £12,666). 

It is the Trustees’ intention that sufficient uncommitted funds should be held to meet three months’ expenditure, which would equate to approximately £11,500.  Reserves are that part of a charity’s unrestricted funds that is freely available to spend on any of the charity’s purposes.  On this basis, the charity’s reserves were sufficient at the year-end. 

However, as mentioned previously, the charity is currently experiencing financial hardship and may be forced to cease.  Although, the charity may not be considered a going concern, the accounts have been prepared on this basis as the trustees believe no changes are needed to the carrying value of the assets or any additional liabilities need to be reflected. 

## **FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS** 

Employees of the Charity will remain furloughed until the Governments Job Retention Scheme ends and/or until ‘users’ request the services of the charity again. If the Charity experiences a resurgence in service demand, then depending on the financial position of the Charity, employees of the Charity may be ‘unfurloughed’. If this is the case then, as part of ‘charities working together’, Mystical Rose will continue working closely with the Prince of Peace for the greater common good.

## **PUBLIC BENEFIT STATEMENT** 

The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty, under the Charities Act 2011, to have given due regard to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit, "Charities and Public Benefit".  The Trustees ensure that this purpose is met for the public benefit by delivering services that are valued, and open to all without charge, thanks to the kind support of our donors. 

## **RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHER CHARITIES** 

The charity works closely with other charities with similar objectives. One of those charities is the Prince of Peace; Mr Stephens, Mrs JM Stephens and Rev P Deegan are trustees of both charities. 

## **RISK STATEMENT** 

The Trustees are actively involved in the day-to-day running of the charity.  They have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and have satisfied themselves that systems have been established, or that other appropriate measures have been taken, to mitigate those risks, insofar as is reasonably practicable, but it is recognised that systems cannot give absolute assurance that risks have been eliminated.  Procedures are in place to monitor risks associated with handling cash, safeguarding young people and matters associated with GDPR.  The Trustees continue to keep the charity’s activities under review, including consideration of any major risks that might be present from time to time. 

## **TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT** 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. 

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year.  Under company law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that year. 

In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

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

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Mystical Rose** 

I report to the charity's trustees on my examination of the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 December 2020. 

## _**Responsibilities and basis of report**_ 

As the charity's trustees of the company (and also the directors of the company 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 material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that: 

1. accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with such records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with relevant 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 Charities SORP (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.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020** 

## **1.9 Measurement of financial instruments (continued)**
