## **TRUSTEE’S ANNUAL REPORT** 

The Trustees  present  their  report with the unaudited financial  statements  of  the charity for  the  year ended 31 March  2025. They have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and Aims** 

The principal objective of the church is the advancement of Christian faith according to the principles of the Baptist denomination. In furtherance of this the Church may arrange public and other meetings of worship, praise, evangelism, teaching, study, encouragement and prayer. In adherence to its objectives, the Church may also advance education and carry out other charitable purposes in the United Kingdom and/or other parts of the world. 

## **Public Benefit** 

The trustees have referred to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Charity’s aims and objectives and in planning its future activities. In particular the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives of the Charity. 

## **Charitable Activities** 

We started the year in April with “Wellbeing” seminar where the men and women had a joint session to deal with common health issues that affect men and women.  This session centred on menopause health for women and prostate health for men. This joint session was held to address the health challenges faced by each group and seek ways to better understand and support each other. The feedback on this session was that it was very helpful to both sexes. 

In July, we had evangelistic crusade that featured a well-known gospel singer Noel Robinson and Evangelist Alex Bowler.  People in Harringay and beyond were invited and the church were pleased that many came to the saving knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

During office hours, people from our community dropped by for emergency financial help, a chat and prayer and we ministered to several people who do not normally worship with us during our onsite meeting time mostly on Sundays. 

We are grateful that God spared our lives but sadly we had one funeral during the year to say “good by”; to a non-member. 

In August we had a “Friend’s / Diversity Day” where we encouraged our members to invite their friends to this special service.  This was an evangelistic effort to bring people to the saving knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ in line with our mission objective to see people encounter Jesus as their Lord and Personal Saviour. We also wanted to celebrate our diversity as the church is made up of different nationalities and ethnic origins. 

Many continue to come forward to share their experiences on their journey of faith.  We pray that this programme continues to build people up in their faith. 

The church Independent Examiners, Vicom Accountancy were reappointed and approved to continue to examine the accounts of the church in 2024/25 year. 

During the year, various refurbishment works were undertaken to repair and make the building safe for our gatherings.

## **Harringay United Church Baptist** 

In November, we continued to connect with our local community.  The church was invited to participate in the local council’s “Carols in the Community” event in front of our local pub “Salisbury pub”.  This was part of the Council’s annual switching on of the Christmas lights in the high street “Green Lanes”.  The attendance this year was larger than the previous years.  Members of our church “music team” and church members turned up in good numbers and sang beautiful traditional festive carols.  It was a wonderful evening, and a lovely way to reach out to our community.  We were notified by Council representative afterwards that we will be required to do the same again in December 2025. 

In December, the women had their annual get together celebration titled “Sisterhood Gala”. They invited 2 speakers who dealt with various subjects including spiritual health and wellbeing. The speakers took questions from the women in attendance that covered life and relationship issues. The women had a fun time and there was positive feedback from those who attended the event. 

We also carried out our annual evangelism outreach in front of the church premises with carol singing.  This was part of our annual outreach programme to reach our community. Members of the public were offered refreshment as part of this event. 

We continued to host our local resident’s association, the Local Community Safety Partnership (LCSP).  They use our building facilities for their community meetings with invitation to the Local MP, Council and the Police on a regular basis to discuss how to improve safety of our community. 

In February 2025, in recognition of the difficult times and the high cost of living, the church leadership were able to organize and deliver food items to most of the vulnerable in our membership and to other church members. 

## **The Leadership Team** 

The trustees worked very hard in managing the Charity well.  The church is run on the understanding that should it at any time require help within or outside the Church it will not hesitate to ask for assistance. 

To that effect, I want to use this opportunity to appreciate and thank the trustees, the departmental heads and everyone who in their various roles and capacity have helped in the smooth running of the church during the year.  May God richly bless and reward us all. 

## **Local Mission Activities:** 

## **Highway of Holiness Homeless Project** 

This is one of the projects that give assistance to the homeless in our community that we have been giving ongoing support for the work they do. 

## **International Mission Activities** 

We give away 10% of our income to other Christian and Charitable causes both within and outside UK in line with our Church policy.  The organisations we support are mostly decided during our Annual General Meeting (AGM). 

## **Baptist Association and Union/ Wider Church Network** 

The Church continues to be part of London Baptist (formerly known as London Baptist Association) and the Baptist Union of Great Britain and we support them financially, prayerfully and in human resources by releasing our members to minister and serve the association and other churches that have no minister. 

We are also part of the Evangelical Alliance.

## **Building Extension/Repairs** 

We continue to be reactive in dealing with all minor works that we come across all through the year. 

Our Estate agent, Brian Thomas, has continued to manage the 115 Allison Road property very well and the property is giving the Church good returns. 

Eagle Nursery Ltd that operated from the church premises has had some challenges with Ofsted and have been served a notice to close down their operation. 

## **Investment Policy** 

We continue to follow up our investments guided by the policy that ensures that we do not put the Church’s money at risk and monitor that we do not invest un-ethically. 

A copy of this policy is available for viewing, should anyone be interested to have a read. 

## **Risk Management** 

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. These duties are taken seriously. 

Having regard to the scale and nature of the Church’s operations, there are systems of controls to ensure that the operations are effective and working appropriately: 

1. All volunteers are required to undergo a Disclosure and Barring Screening (DBS) checks.  This is to ensure protection of children and vulnerable members. 

2.   The Church has its own Health and Safety policy which is readily available to all the trustees and volunteers of the charity. 

3. The Church’s Child Protection Policy is made available to all volunteers working with children and is available to any interested party within the organisation.  All workers, voluntary and paid have had training and their DBS checks are up to date with some coming up for renewals soon. 

4. The Disability Discrimination Act Policy is available to all volunteers on how to relate to disabled members and interested party within the organisation. 

## **Volunteers** 

During the year, all team leaders and trustees except the pastor of the Church continued to give their services on a voluntary basis towards achieving the objectives of the Church. The Church is grateful for the sacrificial contribution of time and effort from all volunteers. 

Training has also been provided for awareness of autism to the Sunday school teachers and the trustees, officers and other volunteers who are not elected officers of the Church. 

## **Investment performance** 

Our savings account with the London Baptist Property Board [LBPB] has continued to grow steadily. 

Page 4 



**Harringay United Church Baptist** 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The Charities Commission recommend that all Charities should maintain reserves to meet potential liabilities and to cover fluctuations in income.  In complying with this recommendation, the trustees have set up reserve funds as shown in the accounts. 

Other reserves of the organisation are unrestricted.  It is the policy of the charity to retain unrestricted funds at a level, which equates to approximately 3 months of its committed expenditure.  This provides sufficient funds to cover the organisation's regular overheads in its various branches, and to meet other committed ministry gifts.  The remainder of the reserves is expended on the objectives of the organisation. 

## **Principal Funding Sources of the Ministry** 

The principal funding source remains the general offerings and donations of members to whom the trustees are very thankful for their generosity.  Many of these donors are on the gift aid scheme which enables the Church Treasurer to recover some tax rebate. 

The other source of income are the donations to the “future ministry funds” introduced after commencement of my ministry here specifically to enable the Church easily fund ongoing maintenance and remedial works that keeps Church premises and buildings in a good standard. 

We also receive income from renting out the Church owned flats and hall. 

## **Plans for developments for the year 2026** 

We want to continue the process of renovating our premises both on the inside and outside of the building.  We are putting together a programme of planned and reactive work programme that will help us manage our premises and ensure every part pf the building is given the attention they deserve. 

We plan to overhaul the heating system of the church which has lasted for over 40 years.  Some of the boilers are showing signs of aging. We are in the process of commissioning the contractor that will undertake this work. 

We want to deepen our evangelism work by working with other Christian organisations that specialise in outreach evangelism. 

We want to continue to innovate and introduce new programmes that will help the spiritual health of our congregation. 

We want to do all these in the power and strength of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Harringay United Church Baptist** 

I have examined the financial statements, which comprise the financial activities, the balance sheet, the related notes and  the  accounting policies  for  the Year  Ended  31st  March  2025  on pages  9 to 18. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and independent examiner** 

The Church's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The church's trustees consider that  an  audit  is not  required  for  this  year  under  section 144  of  the  Charities  Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts (under section 145 of the Charities Act), 

- to follow the procedures  laid down in the  General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Act, and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner’s Report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination  includes a review of  the  accounting  records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts presents a 'true and fair' view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## **Independent Examiner’s Statement** 

In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements 

a. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and b. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act; have not been met; or 

2. which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

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.

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charity's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.

This includes bank and building society interest, dividend, gross rental from investment properties and any related tax credit reclaimable. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds 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 particular restricted purposes.
