REVIVE CHURCH (REGISTERED NUMBER: 07566472)

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2024. 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 2019).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The objects of Revive Church are for the benefit of the public. They are as follows:

A) To advance the Christian faith in accordance with the statement in such ways and in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the directors/trustees from time to time may think fit.

B) To relieve sickness and financial hardship and to promote and preserve good health by the provision of funds, goods or services of any kind including through the provision of counselling and support in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the directors/trustees from time to time think fit ; and

C) To advance education in such ways and in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the Directors from time to time may think fit.

Volunteers

We have a reduced volunteer capacity post pandemic and the split of the Hull campus. Church membership is approximately 200 with around 50 normally active volunteers across 2 main campuses:

At an average level, these individuals will typically contribute about 2-4 hours per week.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

During the spring / summer period of 2023, Revive Church Hull went through a split of the congregation which was a difficult period for all concerned. At the time of writing, this is now seen through a more positive lens in which two new local Churches are now in operation and the Revive Hull congregation stabilised and has returned to growth. Some one-off expense items are highlighted in the accounts and these reflect the financially supported departures of some staff along with 'gifting' of equipment and the like. Revive Goole was unaffected by this and has continued to have significant local impact and especially with regard to young people. For both locations gospel concerts, conferences, youth meetings and clubs, children's and family outreach, prayer events, social activities and the growth of the Kingswood community centre programmes al continue

The youth work to reach struggling teens in Goole has continued to grow, becoming widely recognised, and we continue to work in collaboration with partner organisations there to impact the community.

In September 2023 Revive successfully completed the acquisition of Let Loose Yorkshire Ltd which is a 4 acre Adventure Park and high ropes course along with several building including a 7,000ft geo-dome. This has given the Charity a wonderful public and young people outreach facility along with the buildings, offices, café etc to enable this to be Revive Hull's new permanent home. Let Loose Yorkshire Ltd is now a Revive wholly owned trading company.

We have referred to the guidance contained in the charities commission general guidance on public benefit and complied with section 17(5) of the 2011 charities act.

The trustees consider that the activities undertaken by Revive Church provide a public benefit to those who are members of the church and those in the wider community.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position

We have maintained a monthly review of our finances throughout the pandemic with a monthly data set being issued to Jarrod Cooper and one other Trustee (currently Stewart McKinlay). The combined charitable giving from individuals in our largest congregation in Hull has remained strong throughout the period of the Hull Church split and is the core of the financial stability. We have been sensitive to the reduction in income (reduced events etc) alongside a now smaller congregation and have reduced our cost base. The one-off expenses associated with the split were a significant figure and if these are removed, then the ongoing financial strength continues to show through. The financial performance of Revive post this reporting period continues to show resilience and some growth as demonstrated in the monthly management accounts.

Reserves policy

We currently follow the principles as laid out by SORP and specifically the guidance from the Charity Finance Group.

Outside of periods of raising (or spending) funds for major projects we operate a cash reserves minimum policy of one month's salary expenditure which is approximately £25,000. The cash reserves upper limit is set at this lower figure plus 4 standard deviations which is approximately £115,000. Reserve levels outside of this band warrant debate and approval at a minuted Board meeting.

As previously reported, we acquired Let Loose in September 2023 and the ran a refurbishment capital project for the rest of the financial year and this expense is reflected in the accounts. The first and major phase of this investment was completed in the summer of 2024.

The total reserves held at the end of the year amount to £980,291 (2023: £1,027,142). The restricted funds not available for general purposes at the end of the year amount to £79,000 (2023: £483,733).

The total free reserves held at the end of the year were considered to be £180,510 (2023: £352,074).

There were also commitments for material expenditure at the end of the year in relation to Letloose of £132,222 which has not been reflected in the above.

FUTURE PLANS

The growth of the Goole campus and outreach activities will continue along with the new outreach opportunities afforded by the Let Loose dome and Adventure park. The large auditorium space has been acoustically and thermally insulated which opens up many opportunities for children work, social outreach and so on, it also supports and Adventure park for children and young adults. This will be operated as an ongoing business via a new trading Company wholly owned by Revive Church.

The Church future plans will now revolve around this centre as a focus for our community engagement and young people support and outreach. This now fulfils the goals as described in previous year reports of providing a new HQ and regional centre for the aims of the Charity and all at significantly lower cost than a new-build facility that was central to the pre-pandemic plans.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee, and is therefore governed by a Memorandum and Articles of Association

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

The company may by ordinary resolution appoint a person who is willing to act as either to fill a vacancy or as an additional director/trustee, provided the appointment does not cause the number of directors/trustees to exceed any number fixed by or in accordance with the Articles as the maximum number of directors/trustees.

Induction and training of new trustees

In the event that a new director is appointed to the board it shall be the responsibility of the Chair of the Board Directors to ensure appropriate information and if necessary training is available to ensure the new appointee can discharge their duties in a competent manner.

REVIVE CHURCH (REGISTERED NUMBER: 07566472)

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Key management remuneration

We use two benchmark salary points from the AoG (associate minister and minister) and treat these as firm guides for our equivalent roles. The most important benchmark is the minister role which is recorded in Directors meeting minutes. Deviation from these benchmarks can be proposed for reasons such as experience level, sustained performance etc. but must be approved by the non-paid Directors. Other paid roles are then remunerated in relation to these two benchmark salaries.

General cost of living pay increases are guided by the Government official inflation figures.

Risk management

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.

Principal risks and uncertainties

At a statistical level we are long term financially very stable. We have had a sustained period of growth (prior to the split) over the last 12 years during which we averaged low double digit annual income growth. We financially managed the church split well and maintained a healthy financial performance once the one-off expense items are removed which demonstrates long term financial health. We have a mature leadership and Governance structure and as such, the ongoing charitable activities are deemed as low risk.

The principle risk item in front of the charity is acquisition and operation of the wholly owned Let Loose trading company. This is the major focus of every Board meeting and we have engaged with Adventure Park / High Ropes course experts to help lead us in this new season. The risk level associated with the previous plan of a new build on Kingswood would have been significantly higher than this much lower cost approach. Once all the improvements have been made to site, it is anticipated that we will be seeking a small loan / mortgage towards the end of the following financial year.

The main secondary risk looking forward and mitigating actions are as follows. For context, the Church split is well behind us and membership along with financial income has returned to growth (during 2023/24).

  1. Income growth is less than forecast. Rather than the historical growth, a four year period of no growth and has been modelled. Over this period the discretionary spend (further small projects) would be cut by 60% which would leave the charity with a small overall surplus.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF REVIVE CHURCH (REGISTERED NUMBER: 07566472)

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Revive Church ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2024.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  2. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or

  3. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

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, with the exception of investments which are included at market value.

The charity has departed from the Charities SORP and FRS 102 in order to depreciate all freehold property at a rate of 2% on a straight line basis.

The treatment required by the Charities SORP and FRS 102 where an asset comprises of two or more major components is that each component should be depreciated separately over its useful life and that the value of land is not depreciated.

The trustees consider that depreciating all freehold property at a rate of 2% on a straight line basis reflects the value of the asset for the charity, and have concluded that the accounts present a true and fair view.

Financial reporting standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions

The charitable company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemption in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland':

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. Income is deferred only when the charity has to fulfil conditions before it becomes entitled to it.

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.

Freehold property - 2% Straight Line Fixtures and fittings - 20% Straight Line

Capitalisation Policy - only Fixed Assets costing in excess of £500 are capitalised.

Freehold property includes £80,000 for land costs, the land is not depreciated.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

18. POST BALANCE SHEET EVENTS

The original restricted funds giving was done in the context of a new build in Kingswood and as already outlined, that project was closed and the acquisition of Let Loose was pursued to create a similar result of a new Church HQ with a large main auditorium. This was widely communicated and a small number of people asked for the money that they had gifted to the original endeavour be returned (minus the proportion that had been spent on the design, planning etc). All of these are complete apart from one large set of donations totalling £79k and this is the matter of current focus by the charity to resolve this.
