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 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:

• examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,

• to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and

• to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner’s statement

Independent examiner's statement

• My examination was carried out in accordance with 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 the 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.

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention (other than that disclosed below *) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:

• to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and

• to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act

• have not been met; or

• to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31st March 2022

It is with great pleasure we present the annual report and the financial statements for the year ended 31[st] March 2022.

The financial statement has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out on page 9 and comply with the charity trust deed and the recommendations of the Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting by Charities and complies with the applicable law.

Objectives of the Charity, Principal activities and Organisation of our work.

The RCCG Amazing Grace Huntingdon is constituted as a charity in its own right and is therefore governed by the charities Act 1993.

We have laid out RCCG Amazing Grace Huntingdon under five themes:

To teach the sound word of God, leading to result-oriented prayers.

To further the advancement of Christian faith and educating members of the community as necessary.

To alleviate poverty, especially among the vulnerable.

To provide hospitality to visiting ministers of Gospel.

• To work in cooperation with other Christian organizations (local and international) and support events to achieve Christian aims and objectives.

Development, activities and achievements this year.

This year, the Charity continues to meet its objectives of furthering the Christian faith and alleviating the sufferings of people generally.

The charity, via the activities of the church welcome members of the public to its facility for regular Sunday and Wednesday services. We have gradually reintroduced a number of face-to-face events as Covid restrictions are removed. These events help people to build up their knowledge and trust in God, enabling them to stay out of criminality, social vices, and become more responsible citizen of our community, living a happy and productive life.

The church is keen to propagate the Christian faith in all parts of the world. In the course of the year, we participated actively in the relief of poverty within our local community by supporting other charities, providing education, supporting people within the local community e.t.c.

The charity is determined to intensify its youth education and developments events as a result of the impact of Covid, which affected some of our youth disproportionately. This is in addition to the current activities which are a blend of virtual and face-to-face events. These are very popular events throughout the year. The church has also increased participation in the Love Christmas initiative where the church distributed hundreds of Love Christmas boxes filled with Christmas goodies to the most isolated and vulnerable in our community.

Education is central to the relief of poverty in our opinion. The charity continues to regularly organise seminar in the area of financial empowerment and social responsibilities. We are particularly keen to see improvement in the number of financially-empowered women leaders in our community. The charity is grateful to all donors and volunteers for raising the standard in what was a challenging year.

As a member of RCCG UK, we actively and strongly support the World Evangelical mission which aims at furthering the Christian faith all over the world. This is in addition to supporting local people who come to us in their times of needs.

This year, trustees consider that the performance of the charity has been satisfactory both in terms of advancement of the Christian faith and in generating needed resources.

Future development.

We hope to continue to increase our involvement with the community through social inclusion by further strengthening our education/seminar sessions, developing biblical principles, organising leadership training, economic empowerment, impacting entrepreneurship skills etc. The charity continues to develop the current place of worship, as well as investing in a number of facility and resources’ improvements to meet its objectives and is grateful for the progress so far, all to the glory of God.

Financial results and future activities .

The statement of the financial activities shows income of £165,489 and expenditure of £130,611.

In the light of the growth in the congregation size, the financial support of the church by donors continues to increase. This has enabled the church to continue to support a number of Christian organisations, charities and visiting ministers as well as meeting other charitable objectives.

The present level of funding is adequate to support the continuation of the charity’s objectives.

Risk Management.

The trustees actively review the major risks which the charity faces on a regular basis. The trustees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the charity faces and confirm that the systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen these risks.

Volunteers.

Many volunteers give up their time to help at the church, particularly at weekends and in the evenings. We are greatly indebted to these volunteers for their commitment and continued support.
