Morden Baptist Church Trustees Report for the year ended 5 April 2025
The trustees present their Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ending 5 April 2025.
Charitable Objects
The charity is governed by an Approved Governing Document, which states that the principal purpose of the Church is the advancement of the Christian faith according to the principles of the Baptist denomination. The Church may also advance community work, education and carry out other charitable purposes in the United Kingdom or other parts of the world.
Organisational Structure and Decision making process The church is run day to day by the small team who are employed by the charity. There is a Leadership Board with a chairperson that are responsible for the charity (as trustees), the governance of the Church and the fulfilment of the purpose through its activities and the strategic direction of the Church.
The Leadership Board meets at least 6 times per year for worship, prayer and support and consideration of leadership, governance and pastoral issues. The Chair and Pastor(s) also meet monthly.
Ordained ministers who are appointed to undertake a permanent ministerial role in the Church become Trustees by virtue oftheir[role] and[responsibilities.] Other Trustees are appointed by a clear and open process through the Church Members’ Meeting. Any person qualified to be a member of the Church shall be eligible for election as a Trustee provided that at least one half of the Trustees shall have been baptised by total immersion in water. Trustees shall serve so long as they have the support of the Church Members’ Meeting and (except for those in ministerial office) shall be actively reappointed at least once every five years. All new . Trustees are given information relating to the responsibilities of trustees and the work of the charity. Further training is provided as appropriate.
Church membership is open to those who have completed a membership class, signed a membership covenant, accept the beliefs of the Church, commit themselves to serving Christ within the Church and beyond, abide by the decisions of the Church Members’ Meeting and acknowledge their responsibilities as Church Members.
As a Church of Baptist foundation we encourage members to be baptised by total immersion but such baptism is not regarded as conditional to membership.
Church Members’ meetings have responsibility for the overall policy of the Church. All members are encouraged to take an appropriate part in the spiritual and practical tasks involved in the furtherance of the charitable objectives. Though the Constitution permits decisions to be made at Church Members’ Meetings by appropriate majorities, the Church seeks to work by consensus wherever possible.
The Church hasa staff team to execute certain aspects of its ministry. The staff team who served during the year are as follows:
Jonathan Logan — Youth and Families Worker (Left 31* May 2024) Brian Stanger — Facilities Assistant
Terri Palmer — Administrator

Morden Baptist Church Trustees Report for the year ended 5 April 2025
Objectives, activities, achievements and performance In order to achieve the Charitable Object, the Church provides a variety of activities both to its membership and to the community generally. The aim is to show the love of Jesus Christ in both word and deed and to bring people into a closer relationship with Him as living Lord.
The Church ministers to a wide spectrum of ages and this is reflected in a varied programme of activities and events including work with children and families and a long established work with senior citizens. The Church has a missional focus and as such looks for opportunity to serve the local community in a variety of ways in order to meet people’s spiritual, emotional and practical needs.
Awide range of activities and initiatives have taken place during the year.
-
ASunday morning service each week, including activities for children and young people
-
-¢ Membership courses (also called Partnership courses)
-
¢ Distribution centre for Wimbledon Food Bank
-
Partnership with Community Fridge offering a sustainable use for food waste and a supply of fresh food to address local food poverty
-
¢ Open house free café for people to access support and community * Life groups that enable people to meet together to grow in their faith, socialise and be supported « Short courses on various topics that help people grow in their faith
-
« Pastoral care team to support people during difficult times *« Community groups including Inspire Community Choir, Garden Cafe and Reflect -craft group ¢ Leisure day activity day with lunch for elderly people addressing loneliness
-
¢ Provide a garden for use by the local community
-
« Prayer room available for individual and group prayer
-
¢ Youth and family work
-
¢ Safeguarding training
-
Children/ Families Holiday Clubs, for the local community providing games, craft and activities in Summer, Half term and Easter school holidays.
The Church operates a system to ensure that all people working with children are appropriately vetted with regard to DBS checks.
The trustees are aware of the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit, and are satisfied that the charity is providing a benefit to the public.
Financial Review
The Church continues to raise the majority of the funds which it needs from within its own membership and congregation. The Church is committed to making donations to other charitable organisations and causes, and seeks to give away between 10% and 20% of its income to such causes. The Church is heavily dependent on its members working as volunteers in all aspects of the Church’s activities, many which run with little or no impact on the Church’s expenditure, but nevertheless contribute substantially to the achievement of the Church’s objectives.
Income for the year was £165,741 (2024 : £194,861) and expenditure for the year was £199,184 (2024: £202,067), resulting in a deficit of £33,443 (2024 : deficit £7,206).
The Trustees are satisfied that the Church is a going concern.

Trustees’ responsibilities in relation to the financial statements
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the Financial Statements in accordance with the applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards. 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:-
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently
-
Observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP
-
- Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent
-
State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements
-
- Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 1993, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Reserves Policy ; It is the policy of the Church that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six month’s expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the Church's current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised.
The total reserves held at the end of the year were £1,490,799 (2024: £1,524,242). Of these reserves £16,043 (2024: £20,363) are restricted and £1,436,711 (2024: £1,423,045) are designated. Included in the designated reserves are £1,595,000 (2024: £1,598,000) represented by tangible fixed assets less the long-term borrowings. The general reserves are £38,045 (2024: £80,834). This is equivalent to 3 months of unrestricted expenditure, which meets our reserves policy. However, the trustees continue to monitor income and expenditure to maintain this level of reserves.

Morden Baptist Church Notes to the Financial Statements
-
1 Accounting policies
-
a) Basis of preparation The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), Financial Reporting Standard FRS 102, and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements are drawn up on the historical cost basis of accounting and presented in pounds sterling rounded to the nearest pound. The church meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102 and is an unincorporated charitable trust with registered address of Crown Lane, Morden, Surrey SM4 5BL.
There are no material uncertainties regarding the church’s ability to continue in operation.
-
b) Income All income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity is entitled to it, it is probable that the income. will be received and the amount of income receivable can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
-
; — Donations are accounted for gross when received. - Regular donations are those received as standing order or through the envelope scheme — Other donations are mainly those received through the weekly offering
-
c) Expenditure Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is inclusive of any VAT which cannot be recovered.
d) Debtors, creditors and provisions
-
Debtors are included at the settlement amount due. Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation arising 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 recognised at their settlement amount.
-
e) Cash at bank and in hand Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of opening the deposit.
f) Financial instruments : The charity only has financial assets and liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.
g) Fund accounting
-
Funds held by the charity are either:
-
Unrestricted general funds - these can be used in accordance with the charitable objects at the discretion of the Trustees, or
Restricted funds - these can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for a particular restricted purpose.
-
h) Tangible fixed assets Fixed assets are shown at cost. The trustees consider that the residual value of the properties is sufficiently high to render depreciation immaterial. Depreciation on the garden development is charged at 20% of the cost per year, on a straight line basis.
-
i) Pensions The church makes contributions towards the deficit on the Baptist Pension Scheme under the deficit reduction plan. A provision has been made for the total contributions due. This is detailed in note 10.

The church and halls are shown at a site valuation only, because of their specialist nature and this is now treated as deemed cost since transition to FRS 102.
Assets, such as computers and AV equipment are fully expended in the year of purchase when not material. A separate register of assets is maintained for insurance purposes.
