Report of the Trustees

For the year ended 31 December 2022

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2022. Reserves policy

The net income for the year amounted to £-15,716. All these have been unrestricted reserves and no fund is allocated to restricted project.

The trustees have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets are used for the day to day running of the church.

The reserve that we have set aside provide financial stability and means for the development of our principal activity We intend to maintain our reserves at a level which is at least equivalent to 3 months of annual expenditure. At this level,

we believe the church would be able to continue the current activities of the church in the event of significant drop in funding.

Principal funding sources

This is provided mainly through voluntary tithes and offerings by the church members and through gift aid scheme. Pledges are also taken for specific projects.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS

The church will continue to explore various ways of spreading the gospel of Christ in an effective manner.

The charity is also looking to grow in membership and continue to develop its members to make life - changing impact in society.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of

CELESTIAL CHURCH OF CHRIST GREATER LONDON PARISH

I report on the accounts for the year ended 31st December 2022.

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 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the 1993 Act)) and that an independent examination is required. The charity's gross income exceeded £25,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of FCCA. 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:

Basis of the independent examiner's report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the 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 present with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as 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 statements below. Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:

(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements

have not been met; or

(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
