|Safeguarding||||||
|Every person has a value and dignity which comes directly from the creation ofmale and female<br>in God's own|image||and|||
|likeness. Christians see this potential<br>as fulfilled<br>by God's re-creation ofus in Christ. Among other things this||||||
|implies a duty to value all people as bearing the image ofGod and therefore to protect them from harm.||||||
|Methodist<br>Connexional<br>practice outlines commitment<br>to the following<br>principles:||||||
|~ the care and nurture<br>of, and respectful<br>pastoral<br>ministry<br>with, all children,<br>young people and adults||||||
|~ the safeguarding<br>and protection of all children, young people and adults when they are vulnerable||||||
|~the establishing<br>ofsafe, caring communities<br>which provide a loving environment<br>where there is informed||||||
|vigilance as to the dangers ofabuse.||||||
|~ the careful selection and training of all those with any responsibility<br>within the Church,<br>in line with Safer Recruitment||||||
|principles,<br>including the use ofcriminal<br>records disclosures<br>and registration<br>with the relevant|vetting and||||barring schemes.|
|~ the response,<br>without<br>delay, to every complaint<br>made which suggests that an adult, child oryoung person||may||||
|have been harmed<br>and cooperating<br>with the police and local authority<br>in any investigation.||||||
|~ seeking to work with anyone who has suffered abuse, developing<br>with them an appropriate<br>ministry of informed||||pastoral care.||
|~ seeking to challenge<br>any abuse of power, especially<br>by anyone<br>in a position oftrust.||||||
|~ seeking to offer pastoral care and support,<br>including<br>supervision<br>and referral to the proper authorities,|to|any||||
|member ofour church community<br>known to have offended against a child, young person or vulnerable||||adult.||
|~ In all these principles<br>we will follow legislation,<br>guidance<br>and recognised<br>good practice||||||
|The Circuit has committed<br>itself to ensuring the implementation<br>ofConnexional<br>Safeguarding<br>Policy, government||||||
|legislation,<br>guidance<br>and safe practice in the Circuit and in the Churches.||||||

||The financial statements<br>are prepared<br>in sterling,<br>which is the functional<br>currency ofthe Circuit.||||||
||Monetary<br>amounts<br>in these financial statements<br>are rounded<br>to the nearest<br>K.||||||

||At the time ofapproving<br>the financial statements,<br>the Trustees have a reasonable||||||
||expectation<br>that the Circuit has adequate<br>resources to continue<br>in operational||||||
||existence for the foreseeable<br>future. Thus the Trustees<br>continue to adopt the going||||||
||concern<br>basis ofaccounting<br>in preparing<br>the financial statements.||||||

||represented<br>by more than just cash.||||||
|Income|||||||
||Income is included<br>in the SOFA when the Circuit becomes entitled to it, the trustees||are||||
||reasonably<br>certain they will receive<br>it; and the monetary<br>value can be measured<br>with sufficient||||||
||reliability.||||||
|Expenditure|||||||
||Expenditure<br>is recognised<br>when a liability is incurred,<br>or a constructive<br>obligation<br>arises, which||||||
||results<br>in the payment<br>ofthe expense being unavoidable.<br>Liabilities are recognised||as soon|||as|
||an outflow ofeconomic benefit is considered<br>more likely than not under the legal or||||||
||constructive<br>obligation<br>committing<br>the Circuit to pay.||||||
|Grants|||||||
||Grants made by the Circuit from its own funds are recognised<br>in full at the time ofagreement|||||or|

||deemed<br>values, ofwhich the land component<br>is deemed to be 2285,000. No depreciation||||is||
||provided<br>on the buildings<br>on the freehold<br>properties<br>because the trustees consider the current||||||
||residual<br>fair value ofthe buildings<br>to be not less than their deemed value. The properties|||have|||
||been reviewed<br>for impairment.<br>For details see note 6.||||||
|Investment|properties||||||
||Other investment<br>properties<br>include<br>Blackwell Church<br>Hall<br>—which is shown at||||||

||2020.||||||
||The other investment<br>properties<br>are shown at fair value. No depreciation<br>is provided||on||||
||investment<br>properties as the trustees<br>consider the current<br>residual<br>value to be not less than||||||
||their insured<br>or fair value. For details see note 7.||||||
|Investments|||||||
||Investments<br>are valued<br>in the balance sheet at market value at the year end.<br>Investment||||||
||income is included<br>in the accounts when receivable<br>and any gains or losses on revaluation||||at||

|Financial|instruments||||
||The Circuit has elected to apply the provisions<br>ofSection 11'Basic Financial<br>Instruments'||and||
||Section 12'Other Financial<br>Instruments<br>Issues' ofFRS102to all ofits financial<br>instruments.||||
||Financial<br>instruments<br>are recognised<br>in the Circuit's balance sheet when the Circuit becomes||||
||party to the contractual<br>provisions<br>ofthe instrument.||||
||Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts<br>presented<br>in the financial||||
||statements,<br>when there is a legally enforceable<br>right to set offthe recognised<br>amounts<br>and||||
||there is an intention<br>to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability||||
||Basic financial assets||||
||Basic financial assets, which include debtors<br>and cash and bank balances, are initially||||
||measured<br>at transaction<br>price including<br>transaction<br>costs and are subsequently<br>carried at||||
||amoitised cost using the effective interest method<br>unless the arrangement<br>constitutes<br>a||||
||financing<br>transaction,<br>where the transaction<br>is measured<br>at the present value ofthe future||||
||receipts discounted<br>at a market rate ofinterest. Financial assets classified as receivable|within|||
||one year are not amortised.||||
||Impairment<br>offinancial assets||||
||Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through<br>income and expenditure,<br>are||||
||assessed for indicators<br>of impairment<br>at each reporting<br>date. Financial assets are impaired||||
||where there is objective evidence that, as a resulf ofone or more events that occurred after the||||
||initial recognition<br>ofthe financial asset, the estimated<br>future cash flows have been affected.||||
||Ifan asset is impaired,<br>the impairment<br>loss is the difference<br>between<br>the carrying<br>amount||and||
||the present value ofthe estimated<br>cash flows discounted<br>at the asset's original effective||||
||interest rate. The impairment<br>loss is recognised<br>in net income/expenditure<br>for the year.||||
||Ifthere is a decrease<br>in the impairment<br>loss arising<br>from an event occurring<br>affer the||||
||impairment<br>was recognised,<br>the impairment<br>is reversed. The reversal<br>is such that the current||||
||carrying<br>amount does not exceed what the carrying<br>amount<br>would have been, had the||||
||impairment<br>not previously<br>been recognised. The impairment<br>reversal<br>is recognised<br>in net||||
||income/expenditure<br>for the year.||||
||Derecognition<br>offinancial assets||||
||Financial assets are derecognised<br>only when the contractual<br>rights to the cash flows from|the|||
||asset expire or are settled, or when the Circuit transfers<br>the financial asset and substantially|||all|
||the risks and rewards ofownership<br>to another entity, or ifsome significant<br>risks and rewards|||of|
||ownership<br>are retained<br>but control ofthe asset has transferred<br>to another<br>party that is able||to||
||sell the asset in its entirety<br>to an unrelated<br>third party.||||
||Basic financial<br>liabilities||||
||Basic financial<br>liabilities,<br>including<br>creditors and bank loans are initially recognised<br>at||||
||transaction<br>price unless the arrangement<br>constitutes<br>a financing<br>transaction,<br>where the debt||||
||instrument<br>is measured<br>at the present value ofthe future payments<br>discounted<br>at a market||||
||rate ofinterest.<br>Financial<br>liabilities classified as payable<br>within one year are not amortised.||||
||Debt instruments<br>are subsequently<br>carried at amoitised<br>cost, using the effective interest rate||||
||method.||||
||Trade creditors are obligations<br>to pay for goods orservices that have been acquired<br>in the||||
||ordinary course ofoperations<br>from suppliers.<br>Amounts<br>payable are classified as current||||
||liabilities<br>ifpayment<br>is due within one year or less. Ifnot, they are presented<br>as non-current||||
||liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised<br>initially at transaction<br>price and subsequently||||
||measured<br>at amortised<br>cost using the effective interest method.||||
||Derecognition<br>offinancial<br>liabilities||||
||Financial<br>liabilities are derecognised<br>when the Circuit's contractual<br>obligations<br>expire or are||||
||discharged<br>or cancelled.||||
|Taxation|||||
||The Circuit is exempt from corporation<br>tax on its charitable<br>activities.||||
|Investments|||||
