PUBLIC BENEFIT
The trustees consider that the activities undertaken by Alive Church provide a public benefit to those who are members of the fellowship and those in the wider community of Lincolnshire and we have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit and complied with section 17(5) of the 2011 Charities Act when reviewing our aims and objective.

Foodbank is a foodstore from which we provide food parcels for families in need. We have seen the demand for this grow during the period.

Volunteers
Alive Church provides numerous opportunities for people to volunteer both within the life of the Church and its community activities.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy

The financial position remains satisfactory and with good financial management and the support of both the staff and volunteers.
The financial position of the church remains sound showing Income of £1,283,023 (2019- £1,252,657) and outgoings of £1,188,564 (2019- £1,132,640).The free reserves at 30 June 2020 stood at £122,201 (2019- £122,657).
The financial position of Alive Enterprises Limited is considered to be satisfactory, and with the implementation of planned business improvements the financial position is considered to be sound, showing Income of £64,837 (2019£60,209) and outgoings of £63,943 (2019-£60,872).The reserves at 30 June 2020 stood at (£416) (2019- (£1,310)).

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Going concern
The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Trustees have assessed that the Charity is a going concern as despite the impact of Covid-19 the charity expects to generate income and have reserves that enables it to operate for at least a period of twelve months.
Management and Trustees monitor free reserves closely on an ongoing basis and are continuously looking at alternative ways to operate and keep costs to a minimum.
Although weekly donations have reduced Alive Church has managed to reduce costs accordingly and is continuing to receive a significant support from its donors.
The directors have assessed that Alive Enterprises is a going concern as despite the impact of Covid-19 the company expects to generate media income, which alongside its current cash reserves can enables it to operate for at least a period of twelve months.
The Alive Enterprise staffing team has decreased during the year 2020. Due to this decrease and the decreased demand currently for conference hire, Alive Enterprises is currently focusing on the media department. Alive Media has an great opportunity to increase external clients and bring in a source of income for Alive Church with the experience of online video, webinars and websites being increased due to the pandemic.
Alive Church will fund an additional staff member (from the 2021/22 Rise and Build thanksgiving offering) for one year, for the Alive Media department, so that this additional staff member can support the internal media requirements for the Church and also free the creative Directive to source the external work. The forecast for Alive Church income from Alive Enterprises is £15000 based on current projections.
The Trustees of Alive Church are committed to supporting Alive Enterprises over the next 12 months if necessary, however Alive Enterprises is currently in stronger position than it has been over recent years.

FUTURE PLANS
Alive Church will expand in 2021 with the launch of another location into Lincoln. Launching in the middle of October 2020 this location will carry out the activities of the church at a local level in the northern part of the city. Alive Church plans to launch a new location every year. Locations will now consist of communities averaging 120 people per community.
The Leadership structure will continue to be remodelled as we grow. We have a vision to be a church of 5,000 Sunday Attendees before 2025 and therefore our staffing and leadership structure will change to facilitate this. Alive Church is constantly looking to raise up new leaders and plans to identify areas for possible new locations.
Alive Church released the location of Alive Church in Norwich to become its own church in April 2020.
COVID-19
Virus control measures and their effects on the operation of Alive Church
Due to the virus control measures undertaken the full operation of Alive Church moved online from Tuesday 17th March 2020 and will continue for the foreseeable future. From April 2021 we are opening up our Sunday services for gatherings to take place with strict COVID secure guidelines. This will enable some locations to meet in smaller groups socially distanced for 1 hour services.
We decided to operate as locations with communities so that we can pastorally care for the Church at this next season. Locations will contain communities totalling 120 people maximum and then multiple to another community as they grow.
The Alive Church will now operate as follows:
Lincoln Central - 4 Communities Lincoln North (New Location) 2 Communities Lincoln South (previously Hykeham) 3 Communities Grantham 2 Communities from May 2021 Newark - 1 Community Wymondham - 1 Community Gainsborough - 1 Community
Communities will operate as before in 5 core areas during the next season and we will still have an online service/community each week.
-
Sunday Services
-
Connect Groups
-
Youth and Kids Ministries
-
Prayer
-
Love Your Neighbour - Get help, Give Help and Donate
Our Response Plan and Phased return plans will be published on our website.
We ensure all donors have clear giving pathways through electronic means and standing orders.
Alive Church relies upon regular donations as the main source of income.
Currently the two sources of income are Monthly standing order donations (68% of income) and weekly online donations. Monthly standing orders currently have not decreased but have increased by 12%, £4691 from Feb 2020 to March 2021.
Weekly contributions have decreased due to the restrictions on Church services but we have seen the online weekly giving start to increase over the last month in March 2020 - April 2021. The average weekly giving has decreased by £8000 per month. This has been offset by decreasing expenditure where possible due to restrictions on Church Services and utilising the furlough scheme.
A Bank overdraft has been put in place totalling £50,000 incase of a sudden decrease in cash flow.
The Role of Volunteers
Page 5
CONSOLIDATED ALIVE CHURCH LINCOLN (REGISTERED NUMBER: 07494717)
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020
Volunteers continue to pray a vital role in the activities of Alive Church. Volunteers are involved in all aspects of the church’s activities. Ranging from;
-
leading connect groups (small group online connectivity)
-
leading youth and kids ministry (through our website, youtube, social media channels)
-
distributing food and aid in all locations through Foodbank
-
assisting the local community through prescription deliveries, shopping, pastoral phone calls, assistance to the
-
elderly, vulnerable and isolated
-
facilitating Sunday Services through our website and youtube
-
leading prayer activities
-
overseeing our Social Media output
-
leading locations and the pastoral care that is being carried out locally
Our ability to fundraise
Above the funds raised from our committed donors, Alive Church continues to apply for grants and funds. Currently the Alive Church Emergency Response Fund is receiving income to be used where the Vision Core Team feel appropriate. We have been successful in small funding grants from the City of Lincoln Council for £5000.
The Rise and Build income for Gainsborough and Alive Lincoln North will not need to be utilised in the new financial year due to less expenditure and the current cash flow predictions.
Staff, volunteers and beneficiaries and the implications for the charity’s operations and activities for the coming year
Alive Church will continue to allow home-working for our staff members during our phased return and have now moved from our office premises in Newland to the Alive Lincoln Central Church building. We have acquired room hire from Ground Level Network who are now occupying the 22 Newland lease which was previously held by Alive Church Lincoln. This office space will enable car parking for certain staff and overflow rooms if required for staff to work from.
Alive Church have agreed to utilise the UK Government’s Job Retention Scheme and furlough a proportion of staff members until September 30th 2021.
Alive Church have developed a phased return plan actioned from April 11th 2021 (earliest possible date).
Alive Church are planning a ‘hybrid’ model of activities for the future by continuing the work that has been happening online and returning to physical space gatherings in COVID-19 secure premises as mentioned above.
How the financial and operational effects of the virus and the control measures relating to the virus are affecting the principal risks and uncertainties facing the charity during the reporting period
Alive Church have seen an increase in Standing Order giving from February 2020 to March 2021. New methods of electronic giving have also been employed which see a steady week on week increase in use. The establishing of an Emergency Response Fund has also enabled an additional income stream into the life of the church.
Operationally Alive Church have decided to enhance the online activities we are carrying out with physical space activities in a phased approach. Work is being carried out to ensure our premises and our policies in regard to their use are COVID-19 secure. The phased plans are based upon us using our premises to 25% of their capacity, but utilising them at different times each week to ensure attendance numbers can be catered for.
Impact on the charity’s reserves policy, level of reserves and any change to designated funds set aside for future commitments
Alive Church has set budgets for 2021/2022 and are confident that we are in the process of creating a larger reserve amount for future operations of the Church. During this last year Alive Church has more than doubled its reserves from £43500 to £100,500.
The likely impact of the virus control measures and potential duration of the control measures on the future aims and activities of the charity
Page 6
CONSOLIDATED ALIVE CHURCH LINCOLN (REGISTERED NUMBER: 07494717)
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020
The future aims of the charity remain unchanged for the future. The activities of the charity will adopt a hybrid model of online and physical space activities. There will likely be more connection and meeting through online spaces, more working from home, increased ‘presence’ online and less physical travel. During 2021 as we gather in services more, there will be an increase in income and expenditure which we have recorded on our cash flow templates.
The impact of the virus related control measures on any wider network of which the charity is a part and how this affects the charity’s operations
There is currently no impact on Alive Church with regards to the Ground Level Network. Alive Church Vision Core Team will assess the funding that is given to Ground Level Network in June 2021 once decisions have been made about the Make a Difference One Event funding.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES
The trustees (who are also the directors of Consolidated Alive Church Lincoln for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
In so far as the trustees are aware:
-
there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company's auditors are unaware; and
-
the trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditors are aware of that information.
AUDITORS
The auditors, Smethurst & Co LLP, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF CONSOLIDATED ALIVE CHURCH LINCOLN (REGISTERED NUMBER: 07494717)
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Consolidated Alive Church Lincoln (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 30 June 2020 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 30 June 2020 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where:
-
the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate; or
-
the trustees have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the charitable company's ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Other information
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the Report of the Trustees is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or
-
the charitable company has not kept adequate accounting records; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Page 10
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF CONSOLIDATED ALIVE CHURCH LINCOLN (REGISTERED NUMBER: 07494717)
Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditors under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charitable company's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company's trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
Preparation of consolidated financial statements Group Financial Statements
The financial statements consolidate the results of the charity and its wholly owned subsidiary on a line by line basis. The statement of financial activity for the charity has not been included separately as the charity has taken advantage of exemptions in section 408 of the companies act 2006.
The results in the charity itself was a follows
| 2020 | 2019 | |
|---|---|---|
| surplus/(deficit) | £94,459 | £120,017 |
Changes in accounting policies
The charity have chaged the way in which the Grantham property improvements are depreciated in line with component accounting.
Previously the Charity recognised depreciation on the improvements made to the Grantham property at 2% Straight line as the useful life of the property is estimated at 50 years.
Improvements made to the Grantham property at purchase and since are now depreciated at 10% Straight Line. The change in policy has resulted in an additional depreciation charge for prior periods of £36,543 in the year.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.
Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Plant and machinery - 20% Straight Line Fixtures and fittings - 20% Straight Line Computer equipment - 20% Straight Line Motor vehicles - 20% Straight Line
Depreciation is not provided on the original Freehold Property at Newland however property alterations in relation to the courtyard development and other improvements have been depreciated at 10% Straight Line. The Trustees consider that its estimated useful life together with its residual value of the original Freehold Property is such that depreciation is immaterial.
