The Church may also advance education and carry out other charitable purposes in the United Kingdom and/or other parts of the world. The area in which the charity operates is as set out in the Governing document. The Church provides religious services for all age groups every Sunday. Prayer meetings and bible study groups are held during the week. LBC also hosts Churches Together prayer link meetings on a rotational basis. A renewed effort to reach the wider community through increased use of social media is now in place. **Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)** LBC offers outreach activities for the local community. These include ‘Open Doors’ which runs on Wednesdays and offers companionship, particularly for those who are retired, lonely or bereaved. LBC runs the weekly Happy Days Toddler Group every Thursday. Everyone is welcome at our Arts and Crafts club, which is free of charge, on Friday afternoons. A Christian Aid sale was held in March 2023. We invited the local primary school to visit during the Christmas term and hold an all-age service on Remembrance Sunday to which local uniformed organisations are invited. In December 2023 the church held a Christmas arts, crafts and film afternoon which was open to all and free to attend. A Christmas toys and toiletries service was held annually for donations to women’s and children’s charities and a Harvest festival saw members to bring food donations for the Rainbow of Hope charity, which seeks to help the homeless, people experiencing food poverty and refugees. Rainbow of Hope receives LBC support throughout the year, and we fundraise for Christian Aid and BMS World Vision. The church also lets out its premises to a number of uniformed and non- March **2012** **TAR** 2 OFFICIAL unformed organisations and groups. These include and are not restricted to an after-school club, Brownies, Scouts, Cubs, a parenting charity, dance and martial arts schools and the Local Education Authority. The premises can also be hired for birthday parties and training events. ## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** The charity is assisted by approximately 20 volunteers who assist with the running of religious services, hall rentals, cleaning, prayer meetings, toddler group, arts and crafts group and Open Doors. You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: - policy on grantmaking; - policy programme related investment; - contribution made by volunteers. ## Section D Achievements and performance March **2012** **TAR** 3 OFFICIAL ## Section D Achievements and performance **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** As detailed in the summary of activities shown above, the Church has successfully achieved the provision of religious services according to the Baptist faith to all ages and has met the needs for wellbeing of the wider community on a non-religious, inclusive basis. March **2012** **TAR** 4 OFFICIAL ## **Section E Financial review** Some receipts are allocated as designated funds. In 2023, designated **Brief statement of the** funds included monies raised for charity (for example, proceeds from our **charity’s policy on reserves** Christian Aid sale) and member donations made specifically for our new heating and boiler fund. **Details of any funds materially** N/A **in deficit** ## **Further financial review details (Optional information)** You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about: - the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising); - how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity; - investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted. LBC’s income primary comes from: - Giving/donations, some of which is eligible for Gift Aid - Fees for hire of premises - Bequests and donations - Rental income from two domestic properties owned by LBC, one of which was occupied by our Minister until mid-2023. - Llanishen Baptist Church’s income was greater than its outgoings in 2023. This increase is due to a number of factors. - Since July 2023 LBC has been without a full-time minister. This has had an impact on salary costs (the minister was the only paid member of staff), Baptist Union pension and National Insurance Contributions. The Manse, formerly occupied by the former Minister, has been rented out since August 2023, providing income. We received refunds for Council Tax at the Manse, the Baptist Union pension fund and water costs and made claims for four financial years’ worth of Gift Aid. These additional funds, along with a significant increase in hall booking income provides LBC with an opportunity to extend its outreach activities and undertake much-needed improvements and maintenance within the church. This includes planning to replace the old and inefficient heating system in 2024 and fundraising for this purpose generated significant donations at the end of 2023. Giving from the membership has also increased slightly in 2023. ## **Section F Other optional information** In October 2023 the LBC membership voted to employ a Moderator Plus on a consultancy basis of approx. 40 hours per month. The Moderator Plus provides pastoral support, takes some services and guides and supports the Church during its interregnum period with a view to appointing a new minister in the future. ## **Section G Declaration** **The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above.** **Signed on behalf of the charity’s trustees** 01/07/2024 **Signature(s) Full name(s)** Kathryn Corcoran March **2012** **TAR** 5 OFFICIAL **Position (eg Secretary, Chair,** Trustee **etc) Date** March **2012** **TAR** 6 OFFICIAL Charity Number : 1134514 ## **Llanishen Baptist Church** **FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31 2023** **Final Rev2** **Llanishen Baptist Church** **Page 1 of 9** ## **UNAUDITED TRUSTEES REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** **CONTENTS** ## **For the Year ended 31 December 2023** **Final Rev2** ## **Page:** - **1** Contents - **2** Administrative Details - **3** Trustees Report - **4** Indepdendent Examiners Report - 5 Receipts and Payments Account - **6** Notes to Accounts - Income - **7** Notes to Accounts - Expenditure - **8** Movements of Funds **9** Assets and Liabilities **Definitions:** **Unrestricted Funds**[Offerings or donations managed by the Diaconate on behalf of the Church ] Membership **Designated Funds**[Unrestricted funds 'designated' for specific purpose but can be reallocated ] by Deacons to other purposes if required **Restricted Funds** Funds donated or bequeathed to the church for a specific purpose Funds transferred from Unrestricted funds, or donations or bequeathed as 'Endowment funds'.

Your attention is drawn to the fact that the Charity has prepared the accounts in accordance with 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) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn. I understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022 I have completed my examination. **I confirm that no 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 2011 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. This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner's Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity's Trustees as a body, for my work or for this report Signed: Paul Burnell Date: 18/4/24 Name: Paul Burnell Address: C Mgmnt Services Ltd, 69 Velindre Road, Whitchurch, CARDIFF CF14 2TF ||**Receipts (INCOME)**
