We should aim to submit our accounts as soon as possible and well before the official deadline of 30th June. **Budget/Assessment for 2021 22 and draft accounts to 17 July 2022** 1 **WLM assessment & projected deficit** Our assessment is £95.6k this year excluding layworkers (£74K 2020 21). Gift Aid claim for 2019 20 has been submitted and received. Yin has started to look into doing claim for 2020 21. Looking at the latest accounts I think we are going to end the year with a small surplus because some of our normal activities never get going or started only in early 2022 and our incomes have picked up. Administrator: Celia started in middle of February this year. WLM has kindly agreed to bear half of the cost. Result so far: acccounts (after taking into consideration of estimate in the 2nd half of July and August) are showing a net surplus of about £300 which is quite encouraging as we still have Gift Aid to come in before the end of the year hopefully. Celia 2 **Fellowship groups & existing projects** I have set a budget for each group for 2021 22 Drawing on past experiences, the following procedures are proposed: A. exisiting groups are to send their annual reviews to Rev Hii for completing the Trustees Report as soon as possible but before the first cheque is issued B. group leaders are to submit their plans and budgets for approval. These can be sent to Kcmc Stewards whatsapp group if these documents are ready in between stewards meetings C. cheques to be issued to group leaders quarterly in advance and a fresh cheque to issue for subsequent quarter after their quarterly records (in a excel file) and receipts have been returned to Kcmc administrator D. other groups may wish to come forward to claim a budget but our overall budget for fellowship groups should not be exceeded unless stewards approve to change the budget 3 **IT equipment** This has been set at £5.5k so that we can purchase equipment to improve our physical & remote service. Nothing has been spent so far 4 **Kings Cross refurbishment** We were planning to spend about £32k to improve various areas of our church over a couple of years. Covid-19 had put a stop on this. A big thank to Ah Wah who had completed the new toilet and washroom in the basement. An update: we are getting quotations for painting and renewing the woodfloor in my church. I have put an estimate of £16k in this year accounts 5 **Regular rent** CCGR has resumed paying £150 per month from September 2021 Mr, Mak has started to use the small chapel for giving lessons and has offered to contribute £1,000pa. We had recevied £250 from him in April. Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) has just got in touch with Ben, our site manager. AA is planning to rent the small chapel weekly but Ben has advised AA our new rate at £35ph. I have not heard anything from Ben if AA is willing to pay the new rate. I will update stewards on my next report. I have not heard anything from Ben and have received any file advising me of any rental from Ben since I sent my last report. 6 **Camp winter 2022 and spring 2023** These budgets have been removed as these events are unlikely to happen because of Covid-19 Any plan for winter camp 2022 & spring camp 2023? Our church's subsidy to each camp ranging from £4k to £6k in the past. 7 **Gift aid** Yin is looking into doing the claim for 2020/21. I will report on this in due course 9 **CFB account/CFB investment** We have £169,343 at the close of February 2022. This balance earns less than £2 interest per month. Because of this low interest, I have suggested that we look into investing some or all of this balance in the some CFB's funds to get a better return. I was giving the go ahead to open an investment account. This is now in progress. Once the account has been set up, I would suggest to invest say £30,000 initially. I will read fund factshees and make my suggestions for the stewards to consider. I approached CFB two months ago and I am still awaiting to hear from them. I will report once I have news on this. Update: I am not very keen to invest our cash at the moment because the war in Europe and the very volatile stock markets induced by cold war and interest rate hike since the beggiing of this year. Because of the hike of interest by the BOE, our deposit interest has increased to £19 per month which helps to offset the bank charges. - 10 **Youth Pastor and rental income** We have started to explore if our youth pastor can live in the flat upstair (it is used by our deacon but will no longer be the case from September 2021). If this is possible then it will help to: - -make the post more attractive -help to rent our space at Kcmc. I do not have all the past accounts but the rental income was over £7k in 2013. Update: I attended CM recently and the space will now be advertisd internally within the churches and WLMSC and I have not heard anything about our youth paster since my last report 1 ## **Kings Cross Methodist Church Income and expenditure Account for the year ended 31 August 2022** |**Income**
