TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT For year ended 31 March 2023
The trustees are pleased to present their annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the period ended 31 March 2023.
The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and 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 2015)
1. Chair’s Report -Rev Dr Peter Adegbie
Our 2022 – 23 Annual Report shows you in detail what, where our funding has come from, and our impact over the last year. In our annual report, you’ll find all the facts and figures as well as stories of what God has been doing.
Within The MICC, the Pastors, Steering committee and Trustees are responsible for the overall direction and governance. However, as the church has grown, we have entrusted other individuals of gifting and character with responsibilities in line with their talents and experience, and thus now have three senior groups that work together to give depth, focus and dynamism to the many areas of church life.
We believe in recognising both the gift of leadership in individuals, and the value of relational teams as avenues through which Jesus builds His church. We are heavily committed to ensuring that people get the best care and help we can give them as part of our vision of loving one another excellently and of resourcing and stimulating deep personal transformation. To facilitate this, assisting Dr Peter Adegbie the Founding Pastor, on a day-to-day basis we have the co-Founding Pastor Theodora who works as our Pastoral co-ordinator and Chief Operating Officer.
To keep the church motor running smoothly, we also have Associate Pastors T Okpara, J Mbanu, Benoit Musi, and Dr Ezi AzFredrick who all ably assist in various voluntary capacities. As Trustees of MICC, we firmly believe that following Christ changes lives for the better. However, we accept the right of individuals to have, and to express, differing beliefs or no belief. A central part of the Christian faith is the desire to see justice for all, regardless of age, race, gender, class or religion.
We pledged to follow the Charity Governance Code and assess our governance practises to see how we measured up against the Code. We shall continue to improve the diversity of

5
Maximum Impact Christian Centre aka MICC Chapel of Light
TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT For year ended 31 March 2023
Religious leader trustees have the same level of involvement and participation in decision making as all the other trustees. All decisions concerning the charity are taken by the trustees acting together. The trustees, however, must look to those trustees with spiritual authority for guidance on spiritual matters and bear in mind the spiritual direction of the church and the views of the spiritual leaders.
Volunteers
Volunteers have been a very major part of our charity. They are given platforms which enable them to discover their own potentials, develop social skills while at the same time giving reality to our public benefits objectives.
Organisation
The Trustees meet as scheduled and deal with the administration of the charity encompassing the strategic vision, financial accountability and risk management.
The pastoral, ecclesiastical and operational management of the organisation are undertaken by the paid staff team.
Risk management
The trustees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the charity faces and confirm that systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen these risks.
7. Financial Review
MICC Chapel of Light is primarily funded by donations. We are an independent mission and have no sponsors.
We continue to monitor all sources of income, invest in identifying and developing new sources of earned income and diversifying our income base, as well as monitoring costs, to ensure we continue to be financially sustainable.
The total income for the year was £176,045 (2022: £115,166). The Statement of Financial Activities for the year ended 31 March 2023, shows a deficit across all funds of -£19,366 (2022: -£6,999).

TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT For year ended 31 March 2023
Reserves policy
It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the free reserves of the charity, at an appropriate level to ensure that management and administrative expenditure can be met. From time to time the trustees may decide to designate reserves to building renovation. There were £86,080 free reserves at 31 March 2023. The trustees review both its policies and its reserves position on a regular basis.
Salaries:
We believe in rewarding staff fairly for the jobs that they do and fostering a positive working environment, although our present salaries and terms and conditions do not yet reflect this. WE appreciate all our volunteers who have been giving their best pro bono.
8. Public Benefit Statement
The trustees have also reviewed the charitable purposes of MICC, and the external environment, to make sure the Charity is still relevant and needed. This annual report will aim to demonstrate the link between our charitable activity and how this benefits our service users and the community at large.
How our activities deliver public benefit
The Trustees confirm they have referred to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity’s aims and objectives and when planning future activities. We believe the Christian faith we profess – and which underpins everything we do – is for the common good of every member of society. We therefore believe that MICC fulfils the public benefit test required of charities. We are an outward looking organisation: we are committed to the positive and joyful transformation of all people in society. We therefore strive to make sure the benefits we work for are not exclusive to our members but holistic and all embracing.
9. Statement of Trustee Responsibilities
The charity trustees are responsible for preparing a trustees’ annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The board of trustees would like to place on record its thanks to, and appreciation of, the chief executive/ Founding Pastor, his Executive Pastor/ General Counsel doing the job of several

people and the whole of MICC Volunteers for the skill and energy with which they have managed and contributed to the organisation.
The charity trustees are required to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of incoming resources and application of resources. In preparing financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES
For the year ended 31 March 2023
I report on the financial statements of Maximum Impact Christian Centre for the year ended 31 March 2023, which are set out on pages 11 to 21.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 ("the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act), and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
-
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
-
the accounts did 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 if the requirements that the accounts give a "true and fair" view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I 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.

1 Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
2 Basis of accounting
2.1 Basis of preparation
These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts.
The accounts have been prepared 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) (effective 1 January 2019) – Charities SORP (FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
Maximum Impact Christian Centre meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
2.2 Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis
The charity reported total unrestricted funds at the year-end of £64,757 and has already secured a significant amount of funding for the current year. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. In making their assessment the trustees have reviewed and considered relevant information, including their annual budget and future cash flows. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the trustees have revised their forecasts to take into account measures that they can take with the current resources available to mitigate the impact of the current adverse conditions. The trustees are of the view that the immediate future of the charity for the next 12 months is secure and that on this basis the charity is a going concern.
3 Income
3.1 Recognition of income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the resources, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is more likely than not that the resources will be received and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability
3.2 Offsetting
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by FRS102 SORP or FRS102.
3.3 Grants and donations
Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
Income received in advance of the provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria of income recognition are met.

MAXIMUM IMPACT CHRISTIAN CENTRE
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 31 March 2023
3.4 Donated goods and services
Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so.
Donated services and facilities are included in the SoFA when received at the value of the gift to the charity provided that the value of the gift can be measured reliably. Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income with the equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the SoFA.
3.5 Volunteer help
The value of volunteer help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees' annual report.
3.6 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.
3.7 Income from membership subscriptions
Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in donations and legacies.
Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as income from charitable activities.
3.8 Investment gains and losses
This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year.
3.9 Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity's work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.
4 Expenditure and liabilities
4.1 Liability recognition
Liabilities are recognised when it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.

MAXIMUM IMPACT CHRISTIAN CENTRE
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 31 March 2023
4.2 Charitable activities
Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of outreach work and other activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs.
4.3 Governance and support costs
Support costs have been allocated between governance cost and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
4.4 Irrecoverable VAT
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
4.5 Creditors
The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts.
4.6 Provisions for liabilities
A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date.
5 Assets
5.1 Tangible fixed assets for use by the charity
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of a fixed asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Land and buildings Property is maintained to such a standard that, in the opinion of the trustees, its estimated value is not less than its cost. No depreciation is charged as it is not material. Fixtures, fittings and equipment 18% per annum on a reducing balance basis Motor vehicles 18% per annum on a reducing balance basis
