EASTWOOD ANABA MINISTRIES (EAM)

FINANCIAL STATEMENT - YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

1. Trustees Report

The Trustees of Eastwood Anaba Ministries (EAM) present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2020. The trustees report that the financial year ending 31 December 2020 brought growth and expansion of our services to the community.

Principal activity:

EAM principal activity is Christ Centred Ministration undertakings. Secondly, activities are services to humanity and general local community. Within UK we have adopted and expanded our scope of humanity consideration and deliberately chosen to work with charities supporting vulnerable individuals within our local communities.

During the year various prayer and teaching conferences were organised periodically and attendance to these conferences were very good. We also provided training seminars for preachers and evangelists.

Constraints and Challenges

During the financial year we dealt with many challenges successfully, however our main challenge has been inadequate sources of funding for continued demand for our services in areas of supporting young ministers of the gospel especially in areas of managing social issues.

We are ever prepared to expand scope of consideration, offer training and education to volunteers where needed, however our objectives are constraint by financial resources available. Due to covid19 impact in UK, the country was largely locked down thereby preventing EAM hosting any event in UK.

Achievement during the Year

We were able to meet all planned objectives and operations especially maintaining and increasing our membership numbers. Most challenging of consideration beyond our control was covid-19 pandemic and its devasting impacts. Due to various lockdowns by national government and local governments most of our members were supported in kinds with occasional shopping to help ease difficulties.

EAM has associate operations managed by EAM Ghana and together many underprivileged children were helped during covid-19 pandemic worldwide. To avoid duplication and reduce operational cost, Trustees engineered the process of working closely with other EAM organisations especially EAM Ghana. As EAM funding are derived mostly from organised global or local events, it has been decided that EAM Ghana would organise events on behalf of EAM and we would contribute fair share of an event cost and for this reason we initially paid £7,000.00. Decision was made not hire equipment for hosting events as cost is ever increasing. Event equipment would hereon be purchased by EAM and managed by EAM Ghana. Purchased equipment is to be

capitalised between 2 to 3 years depending on asset type. We spent £12,712.27 on event camera and accessories and asset is held in custody of EAM Ghana on our behalf.

During the year £946.53 was spent enhancing our online presence and scope of consideration which represented less than 10% of total cost on online presence and associated corresponding cost. We anticipate significant increase of our fair share of cost going forward.

Charitable Donations

We contributed £6,005.00 to UK charities and £7,956.04 was provided as support to our members in need of urgent help. We decided to support Help Foundation, a charity based in Northern Ghana where deprivation is so evident for children. Though much help is needed from medium to long term we supported Help Foundation with £12,820.00 as initial contribution. Help Foundation. Provided many videos showcasing how money had been used as part of our requested evidence and audit trails as per PMCT Accountants & Consultants recommendation.

1.1 Source of Financing and allocation of funding

We plan to widen scope of sources of financing to reduce over reliance on contributions by members of Eastwood Anaba Ministries. It is our objective to solicit external assistance including claiming applicable gift aid on UK taxpayers contribution to enable us meet ever increasing demand for our services.

Our finances for the year ended 31 December 2020 was stable due to relocation of events mainly to online and use of other broadcasting mediums. Our income was greater than projected and for this very reason we would like to express our sincere gratitude to EAM members for their generous donations and contributions which has mainly been sole funding of our programmes.

Since involving EAM Ghana our income stream increased by £87,714 from £32,530.00 in 2018 to £120,244.00 in 2020. Correspondingly, cost increased by £57,704.00 from £20,960.00 in 2018 to £78,664.00 in 2020. Cost has increased by 266.48% from £27,717 in 2017 to £78,664.00 in 2020.

In 2018, income was £32,530.00, and increased by £26,553.00 in 2019 to £59,083.00, and increased by £61,161.00 in 2020 to £120,244.00. Strategically involving EAM Ghana, use of social media and online broadcast largely has contributed our increase of income from £20,930.00 in 2017 to £120,244.00 in 2020, thus as increase of £99,314.00 implying 475%.

Strategy of reducing rented accommodation cost.

From above analysis, EAM would continue to host its events in Ghana to comparatively reduce cost and increase income. We would contribute to long term accommodation for administering and hosting our programs from Ghana and £25,000.00 is our 2020 contribution towards EAM building

project. This amount not yet paid and is allocated as restricted committed reserve on the face of status of position (balance sheet). We undertake to contribute fair share towards ongoing building projects to host EAM events in Ghana till project is completed as it saves us cost in medium to long term. As EAM is contributing to ongoing building project, it is anticipated upon completion, there will be no significant cost towards rent.

Overall, it has been a good year and we would continue reviewing our consideration.

2. Accountants' Independent Report

As Accountants we report on the unaudited accounts to the Trustees of Eastwood Anaba Ministries. It is our responsibility to state, based on the procedures specified in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 43 (7) (b) of the Act, whether particular matters have come to our attention.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

As described on the balance sheet the Trustees of Eastwood Anaba Ministries are responsible for the preparation of the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2020, set out on pages below and the Trustees consider that the church is exempt from an audit requirement of section 43 (2) of the Charities Act 2016 (the Act) does not apply. In accordance with Trustees of Eastwood Anaba Ministries instructions, we have compiled these unaudited accounts to assist Trustees of Eastwood Anaba Ministries to fulfil its statutory responsibilities, from the accounting records, information and explanations made available to us leading on to reasonable assumptions and estimations whereby it is deemed appropriate and prudent.

Basis of independent examiner's report

Our examination was carried out in accordance with the General Direction given by the Charity Commissioners. 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 on any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required by an audit, and consequently, we do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. We propose that EAM consider HMRC registration for Gift Aid Claim and we would assist with required due diligence for bookkeeping and antimony laundering (AML).

Independent examiner's statement

In accordance with our examination, no matter has come to our attention:

(1) Which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:

(a) To keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act: and

(b) To prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to Comply with the accounting requirements of the Act have not been met, or
