Annual 2023 Summar y

Aim and Purposes

Our charitable objects, as set our in our governing document, are to:

Our purpose is to share the gospel of Jesus Christ through the word of God delivered through our senior pastor, leaders and members of the church. Our mission is to equip all with word of god and reach out to the surrounding communities in UK and Sri-Lanka with Love of Jesus by exhibiting faith in action.

Recruitment

BIRC reviews current skill sets in leadership meetings quarterly and identifies gaps and potential new roles that are required for the church (Trustees, Leaders, Sunday School Teachers etc.). Through prayers and interviews, candidates are selected and decision is made collectively with trustees and leadership team.

Responsibility for setting policy and for determining the parameters within which the charity should operate rests with the trustees who meet regularly to monitor the activities of the charity. Responsibility for the day to day operation of the charity has been delegated to a wider leadership team lead by our senior pastor.

Operating Highlights

United Kingdom

Regular services at 4 branches in UK on Sundays are continuing to grow.

Homeless outreach by our youths continue to impact the lives of many on the streets of London. Sunday school curriculum was established and shared across all branches. Baptism service was conducted in December 2022

First Football tournament held between 16 churches at Northolt

Sri-Lanka

The charity continues to partner with ministries in Sri-Lanka and, during the year, the charity helped fund the following:

Looking Ahead

Our Time to Build Campaign is continuing in the hope that our church will be able to buy own building and increase our community outreach.

Financial Review & Reserves Polic y

Financial Review

Income increased by £6,698 to £77,721, which was mainly due to an increase in donation income (and related gift aid) and some first time income from this year’s activities for young people. Expenditure decreased by £7,254 to £78,487, mainly because there was no repeat of the large grants we made last year to help with the construction of a church building in Sri Lanka. As a result the charity has reported a deficit this year of £766 (2022: £14,718) and the charity’s net assets have decreased by £766 to £47,176. Net assets include cash of £32,041, of which £21,366 is unrestricted.

Reserves Policy

The Board of Directors have established a policy whereby the unrestricted cash held by the charity should be maintained at between 2 and 6 months of usual expenditure, which equates to reserves between £15,000 and £45,000. At the year-end, the charity held unrestricted cash of £21,366 and the charity is complying with its reserves policy.

Responsibilities Of Directors Under Com an Law p y

The directors 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 Accounting Practice).

Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charitable company as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including income and expenditure, for the financial year. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:

  1. Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

  2. Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

  3. Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

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

  5. Prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.

The directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

This report, which has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies, was approved by the Directors and signed on their behalf by:

TO THE TRUSTEES OF

('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 30 November 2023 on pages 11 to 20 following, which have been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies set out on pages 13 and 14.

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

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  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.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2023

1 Statutory Information

The charity is a charitable company limited by guarantee and is incorporated in the United Kingdom. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2 Accounting Policies

These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the "Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) ("the Charities SORP"), with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland ("FRS 102"), with the Companies Act 2006 and with the Charities Act 2011. The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity as set out in FRS 102.

The principles adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below.

a) Going concern

The trustees (who are the charitable company's directors for the purposes of company law) have assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. In particular the trustees have considered the charity's forecasts and projections and the possible implications should projected income and / or expenditure vary unexpectedly. The trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future. The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

b) Income

Income including investment income is recognised in the period in which the charity becomes entitled to receipt, 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 is only deferred when the charity has to fulfil conditions before becoming entitled to it or where the donor has specified that the income is to be expended in a future period.

Income from donations and legacies includes recoverable gift aid, which is recognised when the related donation is received. Gift aid that has not been recovered by the balance sheet date is included as a debtor.

Income from charitable activities represents income receivable from goods, services and facilities supplied in furtherance of the charity's charitable objects. It includes income from activities organised for young people.

The charity relies on volunteers to carry out many of its activities. However, in accordance with the SORP, the value of these services has not been included in these financial statements as they cannot be reliably measured.

c) Expenditure

Expenditure, including irrecoverable VAT, is recognised when it is incurred or, if earlier, when a legal or constructive obligation for a payment arises provided that it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

The charity makes grants to other institutions and individuals to further its charitable objectives. Grants payable are recognised as constructive obligations arise, which is generally when the charity expresses a commitment to the recipient that can be measured reliably and then only to the extent that any conditions associated with the grant are outside of the control of the charity.

d) Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. Restricted funds are donations which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors; they include donations received from appeals for specific activities or projects.

Page 13

BETHEL INTERNATIONAL REVIVAL CHURCH LTD

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2023

2 Accounting Policies continued

e) Tangible fixed assets

Items purchased or donated for the charity's own use are capitalised when the cost of purchased items, or the fair value of donated items, is more than £1,000 and the item is expected to benefit the charity over more than one accounting period. Depreciation is charged on a straight line basis so as to write down the value of each asset to its estimated residual value (if any) over its expected useful economic life. To achieve this objective the following rates of depreciation are charged:

Fixtures, fittings and equipment Over 3 to 7 years Motor vehicles Over 5 years

The carrying values of tangible fixed assets are reviewed for impairment in periods when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

f) Pension scheme arrangements

The charity operates defined contribution pension schemes for its employees. Obligations for contributions to these schemes are recognised as an expense when the liability arises. The assets of these schemes are held separately from those of the charity in independently administered funds.

g) Taxation

The company is a registered charity; it has taken advantage of the various reliefs from taxation available to charities and no tax is payable on the charity's income.

h) Financial instruments

The charity's financial assets and financial liabilities all qualify as basic financial instruments, as defined by FRS102. Creditors and debtors are measured at their expected settlement value (normally the amount of cash that the charity expects to pay or receive).

i) Exemption from preparing a cashflow statement

The charity has taken advantage of an exemption conferred by the Charities SORP and has not prepared a cash flow statement.

j) Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement

The trustees do not consider that there any material sources of estimation or uncertainty at the balance sheet date that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying values of assets and liabilities in the next reporting period.
