GRACE CHURCH YATE

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT

YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

The trustees present their report and the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2022.

STRUCTURE GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

A constitution governs the charitable assets of the church from a legal perspective in accordance with the requirements of charity law. Regulations affecting the spiritual governance of the church are contained in a separate document entitled “Rules and Regulations”.

In this church it shall be the Elders and Deacons, not otherwise disqualified from being trustees, who together, by the nature of their responsibilities, shall be the charity trustees, referred to in the Constitution as the “Office Bearers”.

There must be a minimum of three Office Bearers at all times. The Church Members’ Meeting, acting in accordance with the procedures set out in the constitution, shall appoint, remove and accept the resignation of Office Bearers.

The charity seeks to appoint new trustees as and when the current trustees see a requirement for additional trustees as part of the continuing nature of the charity. Training new trustees starts with an assessment that individuals meet criteria set out in the bible, then a period of testing is undertaken before a final recommendation is made by the trustees to a general church meeting for recognising a new individual joining the team of trustees.

CHARITY OBJECTIVES

The principal objective of the charity is the advancement of the Christian faith according to Baptist principles and in accordance with the Basis of Faith as stated in its constitution. The charity may also carry out other charitable purposes in the United Kingdom and/or other parts of the world.

The charity seeks to fulfil this objective by being a local church with a wide scope of different activities which include property ownership for holding public meetings, provision of housing and fund raising.

MAIN ACTIVITIES FOR PUBLIC BENEFIT

The church runs meetings open to all the public including worship, children’s clubs and meetings for older folk. The church gives funds for the relief of poverty in the UK and overseas.

The church proclaims the gospel as described in the Basis of Faith in the constitution and encourages believers in the exercise of this faith.

The trustees have given due consideration to Charity Commission published guidance on the operation of the public benefit requirement and consider the open meetings, support for non-members, running of children’s clubs, relief of poverty and provision of housing meet these requirements.

ACHIEVEMENTS IN THE YEAR

The church has recovered quite well from the Global pandemic of Covid-19. Activities started fully again after the removal of all restrictions during 2022. By the end of the year most activities had restarted by the year end.

The gospel was preached consistently over the year in accordance with the Basis of Faith set out in the constitution.

Support for other UK and overseas charities was maintained.

GRACE CHURCH YATE

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT

YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

The church purchased a property in Yate in 2012 and moved into the property in August 2013 after some initial development.

The church built a new church hall which caters for a larger number of people during 2019 and it was opened for church meetings towards the end of 2019. Some aspects of the development of the site continued into 2022 and there is a small amount of work which will be completed in 2023 when the project is expected to be completed.

The church rented residential flats from part of the property during the year. Income from these rents is considered part of the general funds of the church and is available to fund any activities of the church. Priority for these funds is loan repayments and continuing property development.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The church expenditure on Charitable activities is set out in Note 5 and amounts to £125,773. Additional expenditure, as set out in Note 4, of £22,156 is for managing the rental properties which generate their own income to cover these costs. The remaining £125,773 is considered by the Trustees as expenditure in pursuit of the normal activities of a church. The expenditure is lower than the church would normally expect because the church has not found a replacement for the full-time eldership role and a reduced level of wages will follow until a replacement is found.

The church expenditure on the development of the buildings amounted to £2,506 in the year. The church began holding meetings in the new church hall in 2019, however some aspects of the development were not complete by the end of 2019. The years 2020 and 2022 have seen widespread economic disruption due to the Covid 19 pandemic and completion of the final stages of the development has been delayed, but all aspects of the building is expected to be completed in 2023.

The Trustees seek to maintain cash balances of a minimum of £20,000 to carry on the normal church activities for several months if no income is received during those months. The Trustees will monitor the cash reserves carefully in the foreseeable future and reduce expenditure appropriately to manage cash reserves.

The cash balances of the church at the year end were £83,787. This represents more cash than £20,000, the target cash holding.

The Trustees expect most of the surplus cash reserves to be used in 2023 completing the property development by making final payments on continuing issues from the building work and to continue repaying the loans which have been taken out to enable the church to develop the site.

The Trustees are expecting all loans to be repaid over a period of 10 to 12 years.

THE IMPACT OF COVID 19 ON THE CHARITY AND THE COST OF LIVING CRISIS

The funds of the charity are mainly raised from the members by voluntary donations and rental income from residential properties. Both sources are dependent on the personal circumstances of individuals. The full impact of a general economic slowdown resulting from the Covid 19 virus and control measures in society are unknown and difficult to predict. During the year the church has received funds into the general fund which have maintained the general fund income. Income has reduced to restricted funds as the development work on the church buildings have moved towards completion, and the need for money to complete the building has reduced.

The Trustees will monitor income and reduce expenditure where necessary to maintain the viability of the church overall.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF GRACE CHURCH YATE

YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Grace Church Yate (the Charity) for the year ended 31 December 2022.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Charity 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 Charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner’s statement

Since the Charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, 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 Charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  2. 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.

GRACE CHURCH YATE

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of accounting

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued in October 2019 and the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2019.

The financial statements have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair’ view’. This departure has involved following 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) issued in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

The Trustees have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis given the free reserves held by the charity and the careful planning of the Trustees. Impact from Covid-19 and the cost of living crisis of late 2022 is considered by the trustees in the Trustees Report on page 2.

The charity is a Public Benefit entity.

Income

Income is recognised in the accounts when the charity becomes entitled to the income, it is probable that the income will be received, and the value can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised when a present legal or constructive obligation exists, which can be measured reliably.

Most expenditure is for meeting the church objectives i.e., operating as a church.

Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These costs are recognised within Charitable Activities.

Cash at Bank

Cash represents charity accounts maintained with banks repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours.

Creditors and Loans

Short term creditors are recognised at transaction price. Loans falling due after more than 1 year are recognised at transaction value. These loans have been made interest free with agreement that the loans will be repaid after more than 1 year and over the next 10 years. Repayment dates are not known or agreed in advance.

Fund Designation

Unrestricted funds

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

Designated funds

Designated funds are funds set aside by the Trustees out of unrestricted general funds for specific future purposes or projects.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Restricted funds

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. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund, together with a fair allocation of management and support costs. Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

Fixed assets

All fixed assets are recorded at cost.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:

Freehold Buildings 1% per year

Investments

Investment property is held at valuation. The Trustees conducted their own valuation of the investment properties at the year end.
