Connect�Church�UK’s purposes�as�set�out�in�the�objects�contained�in�the�company’s� 





WHAT WE DO- OVERVIEW
All the activities and organisational strurture of CCUK fit into the pattern:
that we would connect with God in personal worship,.
that we would connert to a community of people in relationship and love-
that we would connect to our purpose through serving;
which is all facilitated by effective, efficient, and ethical management.
This pattern will be accomplished through providing the following public benefits:
Worship
Regular public worship open to all. Each week we have hosted a Sunday service simultaneously
in-person and online.
Love
People are encouraged to build relationships and community through a variety of small groups
offered in locations across the city. The small groups are formed based on:
geographical location, generation, gender, general interest or personal growth.
Pastoral work including supporting the sick and bereaved facilitated by clergy, staff and lay
members.
Setve
to support other charities in Birmingham in practical ways.
to engage with our local cornmunity to encourage better relationships amongst our neighbours.
to partner with similar churches/ch3rities abroad to learn from and support their works.
The five goals that Connect Church UK set out to achieve in 202212023 were:
l. Game Changing Worship- Creating our Expression;
2. Game Changing Love - Growing our Relationships-
3. Game Changing Serving- Reaching our Community:
4. Game Changing Management- Stewarding what we have been given;
5. Game Changing location- Moving into our New Building.

Statement of responsibilities of the Trustees
CCUK Board of Trustees is responsible for preparing the Annual report and financial statements in
accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom generally accepted accounting practice.
Charity law requires the trustees to prepare a statement of financial activities and statement of assets
and liabilities for each financial year. which gives a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the
church and of its financial activities for that year and adequately distinguishes any material special
trust or other restrirted fund of the church.
In preparing those financial statements the CCUK Board of Trustees is required to-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent-
state whether the policies adopted are in accordance with the appropriate SORP on Accounting by
Charities and the Accounting Regulations and with applicable accounting standards, subject to the
material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements- and
prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the church
will continue to operate.
We are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at
any time the financial position of the charity and enable us to ensure the financial statements comply
with the Charities Act 2011.
We also have a responsibility to safeguard the assets of the church and to take reasonable steps to
detect fraud or other irregularities and to provide reasonable assurances that-
the church is operating efficiently and effectively-
its assets are safeguarded against unauthorized use or disposition:
proper records are kept and financial information used within the church or for publication is
reliable,.
the church complies with relevant laws and regulations.
Independent Examiner
The CCUK Board of Trustees were so grateful forthe support of the previou5 Independent Examiner
Father Alan Clements, however due to the changes taking place for the charity it was decided to
identify and appoint accountants who would be able to provide additional support in the preparation
as well as the examination of the accounts. We appreciate that Wyatt and Co have agreed to take on
this role.
Approval
This report was approved by the Board of Trustees of Connect Church UK and signed on its behalf, by
Pastor Kirk McAtear. Senior Minister.
