## **Report of the Trustees FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2023** 

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st December 2023. The trustees 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** 

## **Aims and Objectives** 

Our main objects for the public benefit are set out in our constitution and are as follows: 

- to advance the Christian faith in accordance with our Statement of Beliefs in such ways and in such parts of the United Kingdom or the World as the trustees from time to time think fit. 

- to relieve sickness and financial hardship and to promote and preserve good health by the provision of funds, goods or services of any kind, including through the provision of counselling and support in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the trustees from time to time think fit. 

- to advance education in such ways and in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the trustees from time to time may think fit. 

## **Significant activities** 

The trustees consider the performance of the charity this year has been successful. Assistance was given to a number of projects, both in the UK and overseas and the community outreach programmes have continued to thrive in popularity. We have also recommended activities that were put on hold due to Covid, for example, an after school club for local children. 

## **Hardship fund** 

The Hardship fund set up to support people in the church and wider community has continued to be managed by the trustees, and we were able to support a number of individuals through the generosity of the church. 

## **Volunteers** 

The Trustees wish to acknowledge the support of the large number of willing members and church attenders who give their time voluntarily. The charity would not be able to achieve as much as it does without their generous efforts. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

Throughout the year we have, once again, fulfilled our legal requirements in respect of the running of the Charity. All activities have been provided in a safe and caring environment with effective budget control. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Principal funding sources** 

These continue to be: 

- freewill gifts and offerings 

- investment income - gift aid tax refunds - bequests and donations 

These donations all contribute to the budgeted expenditure to deliver the main objectives of the Charity. 

The contributions received during the year have enabled the church to continue its charitable donations and to improve the facilities in and fabric of the church premises. We are also pleased to report that 2023 saw an increase in both the number of active members and the level of giving. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The policy adopted by the trustees is to hold at least three months running costs in reserve. 

At 31 December 2023 our cash reserves amounted to £106,527. 

These funds were held in the National Westminster Bank and the Cambridge and Counties Bank.

## **Report of the Trustees FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2023** 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The Church registered as a charity with the Charities Commission on 19 October 2009, under its constitution, which  was adopted on 19 July 2009. It was amended in June 2012, September 2018 and July 2023. The Church is governed by its Constitution and the Church building is under the custodianship of the Baptist Union Corporation Limited. 

The Charity is an unincorporated association. 

## **Organisational structure** 

The Charity has trustees and a spiritual leadership team, the latter being responsible for the spiritual growth and vision of the charity. Trustees are recruited from within the Charity and appointed by the Church membership normally at its Annual General Meeting, or, by exception, at an Extraordinary Church Meeting, following a recommendation from the spiritual leadership team. The Charity is part of the Baptist Union of Great Britain, and the Evangelical Alliance. 

The day to day running of the Charity continued to be delegated to the paid staff; including a Senior Leader, Associate Leader, Children, Youth and Families Co-ordinators, Health & Safety Manager, Finance Manager and a Church Administrator. 

On appointment each trustee takes responsibility to lead a specific area, with regular updates provided at quarterly meetings or, where necessary and appropriate, by email communication.For the first half of the year,communications between trustees and the spiritual leadership team was brought about by the spiritual leadership team attending trustee meetings as observers, but since July 2023 a member of that team has been appointed as a trustee.

## **Report of the Trustees FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2023** 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Wider network** 

## 1. Public Worship 

The Charity held weekly meetings for public worship, prayer, biblical teaching and evangelism with Sunday Services open to all members of the public. Details of our Sunday Services are set out on our website www.rbc.ac. We also ran regular activities for children and youth, both on Sundays and during the week. 

In addition to the above we normally hold special events during the year, particularly at Easter and Christmas. 

## 2. Pastoral Care 

We provided a wide range of pastoral support on many different levels including visiting people who are sick (whether at home or in hospital) or people who are housebound. 

## 3.Nursery 

The charity also runs a day-care sessional nursery open to all in the community registered with the regulator (Care Inspectorate Wales) for up to 30 children. It is managed by two qualified leaders and a deputy supported by staff members and volunteers, all of whom have been DBS checked and received safeguarding training. The nursery also provides wrap-around care for a number of the children who attend the adjacent state nursery for the afternoon session. 

## 4. Sharing of Facilities 

We have a 300 seat auditorium which is available for the benefit of the local community. In 2023 it has been used for example by the adjacent primary school, by the Cambrensis choir for their weekly practices, for weddings and for pilates classes. 

## 5. Children's activities 

Little Steps is a term-time group for babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers with free play, activities and music. More than 50 children attend these weekly sessions. The youth group continues to meet regularly. We also recommenced activities that had been put on hold due to Covid, for example, "Pebbles" (an after school children's club) and " Easter Explored", our Easter trail which was attended by over 300 local school children. 

## 6. The Over 55's 

Our 'Meet and Eat', is a friendship group with the aim of providing a lunch or coffee/cake in the church for those in the community who are of retirement age, i.e. 55+. Around 30 individuals attended this regularly during the year. 

## 7. Links with other Charities 

In addition to the above we have maintained links with, and/or actively supported, a number of charities and community initiatives, including-: 

a. Arabic Church - We host a church focused on the Arabic community in Cardiff and the wider area, and we partly support one of its leaders. In addition to regular all-age meetings, the Arabic Church works with refugees and asylum seekers in the south Wales area. 

b. Operation Mobilisation - This charity, working in many regions of the world, (via ocean-going ships) seeks to demonstrate and proclaim faith taking account of and adapting to local culture and context. 

c. Innovista - Financial support is provided for the charity which supports young pastors by providing inspiration, training and innovative resources to communicate their faith in a changing culture. The organisation also supports churches working with those displaced or affected by the war in Ukraine. 

d. Starfish Kids Camps - part of The Starfish Alliance charity, which aims to help rebuild healthy and loving relationships for children who have been victims of abuse, neglect and abandonment, through week-long summer camps. 

e. New Wine Cymru - a charity that works with leaders and churches to become better equipped at communicate the Christian message, and at serving, caring for others and breaking down barriers. 

f. Haven Home Care Trust - a charity providing domiciliary care for older residents in our community to support independent living

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Safeguarding** 

We have Safeguarding Policies for children and for adults with additional care and support needs. There are many children and youth activities and all volunteers and staff involved receive safeguarding training before commencing work, in line with the recommendations within the policies. All workers are checked with the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) every three years. One member of staff oversees DBS checks and maintains a comprehensive register of all checks undertaken. 

## **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. The trustees have adopted a risk register that sets out the main risks to which the charity is exposed and the relevant mitigations that are in place. This register is kept under regular (quarterly) review by the trustees.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Rhiwbina Baptist Church** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Rhiwbina Baptist Church** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Rhiwbina Baptist Church (the Trust) for the year ended 31st December 2023. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). 

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies. 

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

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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. 

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.

Liabilities 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. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

Improvements to heritage asset - 4% straight line Fixtures and fittings - 25% on cost

The original cost of the church premises are considered to be a heritage asset and are excluded from the balance sheet because reliable cost information is not available, and valuation would incur significant costs which would be onerous compared with the additional benefit gained by the user of the accounts. 

The title to the church building is in the name of the Baptist Union Corporation Limited. 

Any renewals or repairs to the church building are funded by the trustees.

A new fund was set up in 2012. These funds are designated specifically for the purpose of the Church's project in association with the Cardiff Night Shelter. 

In 2018 two new funds were set up. A training fund was set up so donations could be given to help towards training and university fees. The Arabic Church received funding to support the church which operates within Rhiwbina Baptist Church, this is now fully spent.
