DESTINY HOUSE INTERNATIONAL

Trustees’ Report (continued) For the year ended 31 March 2022

The Hub has completed its fourth year under the management of the DHI Charity.

The pandemic resulted in 2 long years of restricted community engagement and though it was necessary it set us back as it did others.

DHI'S three main goals from inception are:

During this past year DHI has successfully carried out an array of programmes whilst partnering with some great organisations along the way.

Together our amazing workers and volunteers took on the task of organising community meals and events such as holiday clubs and community cafe, DHI Homework Club, reading room, fencing, ballet, community first aid workshop, popup market business events etc.

Some results: children were able to write and publish their own books, families received welfare support, children experienced and had access to activities they would not otherwise access such as Fencing and ballet etc.

Along the way we worked with many partners, such as Hyde, Jason Roberts Foundation, Connect Stars, QPR, Hillside Performing Arts, Phoenix Rising, CVS Brent, Bang Charity and many more.

Due to effective advertising and great customer service, our bookings are slowly climbing to pre-pandemic levels.

This year the charity’s activities have been on a steady tract to success. Our hope is that in the coming year, we will again be able to start up activities for the senior members of our society and bring back meaningful programmes that will be of interest and benefit to all.

Homework Club- led Ayo Octavia

The homework club offers free academic support in English, Math, and Science relevant to primary and secondary school’s national curriculum and supports in completion of homework set by their school. The homework club supports participants in achieving the expected level of attainment for their age and above.

Additionally, the provision of equipment such as laptops to assist participants in developing their IT skills and completing their homework set by their school.

Trustees’ Report (continued) For the year ended 31 March 2022

Volunteers

DHI is grateful for the dedication and commitment of volunteers who under the direction of the senior leader of the church perform several tasks in order to assist in fulfilling its objectives.

Conclusion

Another financial year has been completed and DHI is in a good, stable and positive position, with a continued and secure sense of expectation for the year ahead. For ministry, the aim is to have more of the manifestation of the power of the Holy Spirit culminating in the increased operation of the spiritual gifts and power. Emphasis will also be placed on increasing the gifts of preaching and teaching in response to members’ requests.

We are very appreciative of the work of the trustees, committee members and members of this church fellowship who continue to work tirelessly throughout the year to bring this vision to fruition.

Destiny House International’s mission is to help individuals discover and walk in their destiny continues.

Governance and internal control

Section 132 of the Charities Act 2013 requires that the charity keep proper accounting records and to prepare accounts that accord with the accounting records and that comply with the accounting requirements of the Act.

In doing so, the charity has implemented systems of internal controls to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss.

These include:

  1. correct handling of funds and operation of bank accounts held in its name

  2. proper records being maintained and financial information used within the charity or for publication is reliable

  3. delegating responsibility thus ensuring that there is adequate segregation of duties and division of labour

  4. consideration by the Trustees of the financial results and non-financial indicators

  5. identification and management of risks

Risk Management

The trustees will re-examine the operational and business risks the charity faces to ensure that the systems which are currently in place to mitigate the significant risks continues to be effective and appropriate

Public benefit

The Board’s strategy for achieving the objects, listed on page 2, for the public benefit is to advance The Christian faith in the United Kingdom and abroad by the proclamation of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

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(2) of the Charities Act 2013 (the 2013 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Basis of 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 presented 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 statement below.
