## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the year ended 31 December 2020** 

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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). 

## **OBJECTIVE AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and Aims** 

The church's continuing objective is to bring the Christian message to people, to service the local community and to benefit the public. Its central location with a wide range of activities within it, means that many people have access to the building, which we recognise as an opportunity to further these aims. 

## **Public Benefit** 

The trustees have compiled with the duty as per Section 17 of the 2011 Charities Act to have due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission on public benefit and consider that the objectives and aims of the charity described above, enable it to meet its obligations to the Charity Commission and to benefit of the public. 

## **Internal Organisation** 

Membership of the Trustee Committee totals six, Miss Lindsey Wardle having resigned and subsequently died in May 2020. During 2020 members were: Stephen Fellingham (Local Church Leader as Chairman), Mrs Judith Davies (Church Secretary), Miss Joyce Hodgkinson (Trustee Secretary), Mrs Ruth Howard, Mrs Eve Johnson and Michael Toplis. Russell Heath attended meetings as IT advisor and website manager, his expertise and ability being much appreciated. The Administrator, Mrs Diana Tutt, also attended as did Interim Moderator, Revd. Bryn Thomas, whose wise advice and guidance during the prolonged interregnum were invaluable. The normal schedule of meetings was disrupted by the lockdowns necessitated by the Covid 19 pandemic of 2020 but two formal meetings were held by zoom; any issues arising during the earlier part of the year were dealt with through constant electronic communication between all the trustees and the Church Eldership, two members of which attended and contributed to Trustees' meetings, Mrs Elizabeth Major and Miss Julia Isaacson. 

For the duration of this report, the church continued in ministerial vacancy but fortunately there were two qualified lay preachers: Stephen Fellingham, BD, Local Church Leader and Co-ordinator of the 5000 Project (inactive during the pandemic) and Mrs Judith Davies, MA, MA(Ed), also Church Secretary. Together they led the church and, with the welcome support of the Interim Moderator, Revd. Bryn Thomas, ensured the weekly Sunday worship of the church by Zoom. This was expected to continue well into 2021 when a new minister, Revd. Elaine Colechin, would be inducted and would chair all meetings of the Trustees and Elders as part of serving to the Ministry of Word and Sacraments in the Pastorate of St Mark's United Church Greenwich and Bromley United Reformed Church. 

## **Ongoing Activities during the pandemic 2020** 

The church complex is large and centrally placed with eight rooms and two kitchens available for hire which are widely used in normal circumstances. Without the income derived from room lettings the church would not be able to continue and closure for the greater part of 2020 has caused grave financial concern. It has been necessary to draw considerably from capital investment funds throughout 2020 and one of the Trustees, Mrs Ruth Howard, has accepted the portfolio for fundraising, a most welcome and much needed development. The Administrator, a qualified Management Accountant, prepares our accounts for audit and normally works part time four days per week, also overseeing the day-to-day running of the building. The Bookings Officer, normally works three days per week and there are two caretakers.  During 2020, staff have been furloughed as necessary.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the year ended 31 December 2020** 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities** 

In normal circumstances our Church Outreach Programme comprises: 

**a) The 5000 Project:** the Project works with people who are homeless or those in vulnerable housing situations and also those with learning difficulties, mental health issues or who have alcohol or drug additions, as well as people who are living alone and simply want company. A three course freshly cooked lunch has previously been provided on Mondays, with a community café operating on Fridays. Regrettably, from the start of the first lockdown in March 2020 the Project had to be held in abeyance until Government regulation s permit reopening. 

**b) Community Café:** provided coffee on Tuesdays and Wednesdays but was also unable to operate throughout most of 2020. 

**c) Jigsaw puzzle club:** has been meeting fortnightly on Wednesday mornings for over ten years and has in that time donated over £500 to the church, to the Meningitis Trust and to Demelza, the South London Children's hospice. Again, this very small club necessarily closed dur ing 2020. 

**d) Badminton Club** (Tuesday evening, Wednesday morning): likewise unable to meet but very kindly continued to donate £500 to the church. 

## **Co-operation with others** 

**a) Trussell Trust Food Bank:** continued to operate from its dedicated accommodation in the buildings Tuesdays and Thursdays, after being temporarily house d during the first lockdown in the Bromley Civic Centre. 

**b) Bromley Homeless Shelter and LATCH Advice Service** (assisting the homeless under 25 years of age) The regular advice service for all users and those in housing difficulties was able to continue: strict cleanliness was maintained by the Bromley Homeless Shelter including "fogging" in accordance with guidance from PHE. Referrals to the Food Bank were assisted by the organisations being co-located in Bromley URC. By the end of 2020, Homeless Shelter clients were being provided with microwaved meals daily on a take-away basis Members of Bromley Homeless have an advice service, run twice weekly from the Church and, since late 2019, the Cator Medical Practice, based at Beckenham Beacon, has held surgeries on the church premises for the homeless who are not registered with a GP. Clients have access to other medical services, notably mental health referrals which require input from a GP. During 2020, it was possible during the winter to house all those needing shelter under the government's "Everybody In" campaign. Bromley Homeless Shelter with its Advice Service and LATCH are due to combine as one charity during 2021.

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial review** 

Due to the pandemic, there was a significant deficit for the year ended 31 December 2020 of £39,519, (2019 - £14,951 surplus) after losses on investments of £5,020. The 5000 Project had a surplus of £2,585, (2019 - £4,035). To support cash flow, £20,000 from the Church's investments had to be realised. This was withdrawn from Aegon and was in line with the Charity Commission's guidance on the use of reserves during the pandemic. The Church's financial position and reserves policy is reviewed regularly by the Trustees. Predicted income and expenditure for the year to 31 December 2021 is very difficult to estimate with the pandemic continuing; this affects room bookings but also the ability to address major maintenance work to replace original heating and electrical systems which can no longer be patched up. The trustees will seek advice on the most urgent projects and explore fundraising and grant opportunities to cover what will be significant costs; sufficient reserves will remain in place should it be necessary to wind up for any reason. 

## **The Future** 

This report reflects the position of the Church during the year 2020 which was mostly consumed by the Covid pandemic and which inevitably brought considerable changes to operations. In compliance with government instructions on Lockdown, the church was closed on 22nd March. The caretakers were furloughed and the Bookings Officer worked from home for some time until also being furloughed. The Administrator worked from home to keep abreast of requirements and to prepare for re-opening, ensuring compliance with all the relevant government guidance. A few groups (but not the congregation) returned from mid-August; morning service resumed on Sunday 6th September. After a few weeks of some lifting of restrictions, the situation then worsened dramatically: London was placed in Tier 4 and then a further and extended lockdown began at the end of 2020 through into 2021. This has contributed to a loss of over two-thirds of income so far. Where 2021 will take Bromley URC is far from clear but the Trustees and Elders, together with the new Minister, will continue to take a wide, positive attitude and intend to remain open in  the service of God and of the community in central Bromley.. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document** 

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity. 

## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** 

Trustees are appointed on a three-year rotational basis by church members at their AGM. Their election complies with the requirement of the Charity Commission following their granting of charitable status obtained on 19 April 2010, registration number 11355594.   Previously, the Eldership of the church had combined trustee responsibility in their membership.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF BROMLEY UNITED REFORMED CHURCH** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Bromley United Reformed Church** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Bromley United Reformed Church (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2020. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

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

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

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 Trust as required by section 130 of the 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.
