TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
The trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2020.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's [governing document], the Companies Act 2006, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) and "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
The aim of the Charity as set out in its Constitution is the interlocking union and instruction of its believers according to the New Apostolic confession of faith.
The Charity fulfils its objects by promoting and teaching the New Apostolic Church faith, which is encapsulated in the Ten Articles of Faith. This work is carried out in unity with the worldwide promotion and teaching of the New Apostolic faith under the oversight of the Chief Apostle and the New Apostolic Church International.
The Charity seeks to support the spiritual care of members and guests and to care for sustained attendance and overall participation of its attendees at divine services and other events and managing the donations and freewill offerings of those attendees.
Significant activities
The strategy of the Charity is to foster spiritual fellowship and the development of the faith amongst its attendees. The emphasis for church buildings owned by the Charity is on maintenance and refurbishment to bring the properties in line with current standards where feasible. The activities of the charity are centred on the divine services held in the congregations which utilise church buildings owned by the Charity as well as hired premises.
The divine services are open to the public who can participate in them and benefit from the spiritual fellowship and faith of the members. The divine services are complemented by pastoral visits by the ministers, and a range of activities including Sunday School, Religious Instruction and Confirmation lessons, and Youth activities for children and young people, events for seniors, and choir and orchestra activities that serve to enhance the divine service. The Church website www.nacukie.org and a variety of church publications, continue to benefit existing members as well as encouraging guests to support the Charity
Digital platforms also became a significant offering which allowed the Charity to reach members, old and new who previously had difficulty in attending in person.
Public Benefit
One of the core objects of the charity is to advance the Christian faith in accordance with the worldwide teachings of the New Apostolic faith in the United Kingdom and Ireland (and any other places); based on Matthew chapter 28 "to teach all nations". This is carried out locally by inviting guests, special events, church publications and the website. All members are encouraged to invite others to participate in the activities of the charity.
All church services and other platforms are open to the public. Membership of the charity is open to any adult who wishes to join a congregation. Minors may also join subject to applicable law. Membership of the charity is diverse with many different cultures and social strands represented in the charity. The charity is associated with New Apostolic Church International with 9.27 million members as at 1 st January 2020.
https://nak.org/en/church/factsfigures
Where possible, church properties have notice boards advising the times of services and other local information. Details are also provided on the website. Many church properties provide for disabled access. The activities of the charity are spread across various locations in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Where costs are charged to members for publications and other services, the costs are reasonable, and publications are available at affordable cost. There are no charges for becoming a member of the charity or for performing ministrations, for example, weddings, baptisms or funerals.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
Policies
It is our intention to continue to produce and update formal policies that currently exist in practice but are not yet written. Most of the volunteer work, the processes and the direction are part of the world-wide church practices.
‘Conflict of interest ‘and ‘Volunteer management’ policies do exist in a practiced form and particular attention will be applied to signposting procedures and application to our on-line portals where everything will be available in detail. The worldwide church developed a ‘Concept of ministry’ and all guidance for our volunteer sector through ‘ordination’ ‘appointment’ and ‘assignment’ is now practiced world-wide.
Volunteers
The Charity is run almost exclusively by volunteer ministers and members in the UK and Ireland who fulfil their ministerial responsibilities in an honorary capacity. The activities that complement the divine services are supported by members and attendees of all ages in their voluntary capacity. Nearly all the income of the Charity is derived from the donations and freewill offerings of attendees.
Financial review
The skill sets of the trustees are applied to try and forward plan for scenarios that may be detrimental to the going concern of the charity and as the vast majority of income is received from donations. The reserves are always generously maintained to cope with any as yet, unforeseen situations that could affect attendances or opening of churches.
Reserves policy
The trustees annually review the reserves of the charity with the aid and guidance of the appointed accountants. The reserves were deliberately increased to manage the expected decline in income from the world-wide pandemic.
The above is a temporary shift from the trustees previous decision where it had been previously decided that as long as was appropriate, according to ongoing building’s refurbishment, to keep cash or other investments under constant review of at least 3 months’ worth of expenses of the charity.
The attribution of funds will be reviewed on an annual basis.
Principal funding sources
Nearly all of the income of the Charity was derived directly from donations and freewill offerings from attendees or from other forms of mostly, ethical investments. Most of the income of the Charity was used to meet the operating expenses of the Charity, including the provision of divine services, both in-person and now digital and other activities that complement the divine services. The maintenance and improvements to the Charity's properties, management and administration costs.
Legacies, Gift Aid & Bank-2-Bank income
Income from Gift Aid has flattened and whilst down, Bank-2-Bank individual donations increased in terms of donors due to the lack of in-person attended services. The Charities challenge is to increase donations on eventual physical return to church whilst keeping the gains of internet banking.
On the rare occasion members do still enquire about leaving a legacy and where appropriate, this form of donation is explained to members.
Investment policy and objectives
The investment policy is to invest funds in deposits with a view to achieving a high level of security combined with good accessibility and as is possible, ethically. Euro based NAK Special Funds was the chosen investment vehicle for the majority of the financial assets.
The trustees has assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
The core objectives of the Charity are to support the spiritual care of members and guests. The Charity will aim to achieve these objectives by implementing the strategies and activities, backed by the extensive use of volunteers, described earlier in this report. The Charity is aware that external factors, including the political and economic environment both in overseas countries where the New Apostolic Church is established and, in the UK, may impact on its ability to achieve its core objectives.
PROPERTY
Birmingham is the largest project of the current administration which has been significantly delayed due to the pandemic.
We have decided to purposefully utilise existing funds that have until now, been retained as investment to cover 30% of both projects with our parent church (Northern Germany) contributing the additional 70%
Estate Management
Almost the entire estate has been renovated and upgraded to varying degrees and funds invested to ensure all properties became compliant, within reason, to applicable legislation and good practices. Brynamman has fallen out of this since severe weather damage occurring within a few days of the date of this report. All weather damage is covered by our Insurance policy so no major impact on cashflow.
Property expenses, excluding the planned Birmingham renovations decreased during 2020
Insurances - Property and fellowship at rented locations
A full review and update takes place annually and the trustees are satisfied that there is sufficient cover of property and contents. Unnecessary parts of our insurance were cancelled to save premiums based on the cancellation of all hired halls.
The value of properties has also been reviewed to meet the new FRS102 requirements.
Structure, governance and management
The Charity is a company limited by guarantee not having a share capital formed under the Companies Act 2006.
The trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:
Mr D A Middleton
Mr D A Heynes Mr U Falk Mr N C Woodman Mr R Krause Mrs K Paisley
Recruitment and appointment of new Trustees Directors
The Declaration of Trust makes provision for the District Apostle to appoint new trustees’ directors by executing a deed. The District Apostle will consult the other trustees before an appointment is made, and the deed of appointment will then be approved by all trustee directors.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
Publications
The Charity produces & purchases literature and teaching materials that support the promotion of the New Apostolic Faith which are mostly published by Verlag Friedrich Bischoff GmbH by commission of the New Apostolic Church International. The literature and teaching materials are purchased by the Charity on a commercial basis which allows for the fact that the literature and teaching materials are available to a number of English-speaking countries including the UK and Ireland.
Risk management
The trustees confirm that the major risks, to which the Charity is exposed, are identified by the trustees, regularly reviewed and systems established or are in the process of being enhanced, to manage those risks.
During 2020, the concerted effort was short-lived, due to COVID, to ensure all properties were compliant and managed with good practices, records and training provided to reduce risks however, we have used the time to review implementation procedures post pandemic.
The DBS checks for all active ministers, teachers and others who are involved in similar activities, is regularly reviewed, and remains an on-going process. The trustees continue to apply their skills as outlined in the skills audit and they work closely with their professional support in terms of legal and accounting procedures.
Organisational structure
The organisational structure relating to the religious activities of the Charity is centred on congregations and missions, which are located mainly in the UK, and are each led by a rector. The congregations are grouped into a number of geographical districts which are each led by a District Leader The District Leaders are led by a Bishop or Apostle who has responsibility for the religious activities carried out by the charity in the UK & Ireland A Bishop would report to an Apostle who in turn reports to the District Apostle. The District Apostle reports to the Chief Apostle (who is the Supreme President of the New Apostolic Church worldwide). The organisational structure relating to the business affairs of the Charity, which includes all legal, regulatory, financial, property and administrative matters is led by the trustees. and their appointed advisors. The day-to-day administration and financial matters of the Charity are supported by an employed administrator directly supported by the Bishop who is also a Trustee. The Charities properties are managed by Mr D Middleton who is supported by the administrator, Mr C Esterhuizen and at each location by an appointed and trained Facilities Manager(s). One trustee is employed by the UK Charity. The Church administrator has been fully trained as our internal qualified Health & Safety officer.
Adjustments and digital provisions were explored and adopted during the pandemic and several of these platforms that have enhanced church activity will continue. The Charities challenge is to maintain the digital gains whilst adapting to the assumed new normal post pandemic.
Induction and training of new trustees
Once new trustee directors have been formally appointed, they immediately have the opportunity to engage with issues and decisions with which the trustees become involved. This provides new trustees with peer group support enabling them to contribute to the work of the existing trustees directors from the date of their formal appointment.
Wider network
The Charity's religious activities are carried out in unity with the worldwide promotion and teaching of the New Apostolic faith under the oversight of the Chief Apostle and the New Apostolic Church International. The Charity's legal, regulatory, financial, property and administrative matters are directed by the trustees having regard to what is in the best interests of the Charity.
Disclosure of information to auditor
Each of the trustees has confirmed that there is no information of which they are aware which is relevant to the audit, but of which the auditor is unaware. They have further confirmed that they have taken appropriate steps to identify such relevant information and to establish that the auditor is aware of such information.
The trustees' r eport was approved by the Board of Trustees.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
The trustees, who are also the directors of New Apostolic Church UK for the purpose of company law, are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report 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 charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that year.
In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF NEW APOSTOLIC CHURCH UK
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of New Apostolic Church UK (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 31 December 2020 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and the notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (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 31 December 2020 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, 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, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and regulation 8 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended).
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 Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity 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
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. 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. 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 course of 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 this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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.
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:
-
the information given in the trustees' r eport, which includes the d irectors ' r eport prepared for the purposes of company law, for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
the d irectors ' r eport included within the trustees' r eport has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

NEW APOSTOLIC CHURCH UK
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF NEW APOSTOLIC CHURCH UK
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the d irectors ' r eport included within the trustees' r eport.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
adequate and proper accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
-
the trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies' exemptions in preparing the trustees' r eport and from the requirement to prepare a s trategic r eport.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the s tatement of trustees' r esponsibilities, the trustees, who are also the directors of the charity for the purpose 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 charity’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.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditor under section 44(1)(c) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and under the Companies Act 2006 and report in accordance with the Acts 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 an auditor's report 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.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below .
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. The objectives of our audit are to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding compliance with laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, to perform audit procedures to help identify instances of non-compliance with other laws and regulations that may have a material effect on the financial statements, and to respond appropriately to identified or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations identified during the audit.
In relation to fraud, the objectives of our audit are to identify and assess the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud, to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatements due to fraud through designing and implementing appropriate responses and to respond appropriately to fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit.
However it is the primary responsibility of management, with the oversight of those charged with governance, to ensure that the entity’s operations are conducted in accordance with the provisions of laws and regulations and for the prevention and detection of fraud.

NEW APOSTOLIC CHURCH UK
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF NEW APOSTOLIC CHURCH UK
In identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud, the audit engagement team made enquiries of management, and those charged with governance, regarding the procedures relating to identifying, evaluating and complying with;
-
laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance;
-
detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud;
-
the internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations;
As a result of these procedures we consider the most significant laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the financial statements are FRS 102, General Data Protection Regulations, Companies Act, Charities Act 2011, Charities and Trustees Investment (Scotland) Act, Charities Statement of Recommended Practice and employment law and regulations. We performed audit procedures to detect non-compliance, which may have a material impact on the financial statements. These included reviewing financial statement disclosures and evaluating advice received from external advisors. There were no significant laws and regulations we deemed as having an indirect impact on the financial statements.
The audit engagement team identified the risk of management override of controls as the area where the financial statements were most susceptible to material misstatement due to fraud. Audit procedures performed included but were not limited to testing manual journal entries and other adjustments and evaluating the rationale in relation to any significant, unusual transactions and transactions entered into outside of the normal course of business.
As a large portion of income is cash donations, this was also highlighted as an area of high risk for fraud and not being recorded in the accounts. Audit procedures performed included but were not limited to observing count procedures and substantive and analytical testing of income recording systems.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: http s :// www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
New Apostolic Church UK is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 19 Southwell Park Road, Camberley, Surrey, GU15 3PU.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's charity's memorandum and articles of association, the Companies Act 2006, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) and "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)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling , which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary a mounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of listed investments to market value at the year end. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular purposes.
Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity's work or for a specific purpose.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
1.4 Income
Items of income are recognised and included in the accounts when all of the following criteria are met:
-
The Charitable Company has entitlement to the funds
-
Any performance conditions attached to the items of income have been met or are fully within the control of the charity.
-
There is sufficient certainty that receipt of the income is considered probable; and
-
The amount can be measured reliably.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

(Continued)
For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of:
-
the date on which the charity is aware that probate has been granted;
-
the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the Charity that a distribution will be made
-
when distribution is received from the estate.
Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor's intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.
Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit or dividend income from investments is included when receivable and the amount can be measured realisable by the charity, this is normally upon notification by the relevant organisation.
Other income
Other income consists of insurance proceeds and is recognised in the accounts when there is a reasonable certainty it will be received.
1.5 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. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
Charitable activities - includes the costs of carrying out the charitable objects in promoting and teaching the New Apostolic faith and their associated support costs as well as costs incurred in supporting Youth Away days. No support costs are allocated to this activity.
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs. These costs have all been allocated to the main charitable activity of promoting and teaching the New Apostolic Faith.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its estimated useful life.
Freehold land and buildings 2% on cost Plant and equipment 15% on reducing balance Fixtures and fittings 15% on reducing balance Computers 15% on reducing balance Motor vehicles 25% on reducing balance
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
1 Accounting policies
(Continued)
Only items over £5,000 will be capitalised. In the main this will be items such as new Altars, Organs and new furniture.
No depreciation is charged on freehold property as the estimated residual value is higher than the cost properties are carried in the accounts and any charge would be immaterial. Where residual values of property fall below cost, an impairment review is undertaken and the carrying value of property is impaired in the accounts.
1.7 Fixed asset investments
Fixed asset investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date using the quoted market value at the balance sheet date.
Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sales proceeds and their market value at the start of the year or their subsequent cost, and are charged or credited to the statement of financial activities in the period of disposal.
Unrealised gains and losses represent the movement in market values during the year and are credited or charged to the statement of financial activities based on the market rate at the year end.
1.8 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any ) .
1.9 Financial instruments
The trust only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at the carrying value plus accrued interest less repayments.
Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid.
Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid deposit accounts with a short maturity date of three months or less from the opening of the account.
Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation arising from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
1.10 Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

1.11 Employee benefits
The costs of short term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense.
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's services are received.
1.12 Retirement benefits
Pensions
The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
1.13 Leases
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
1.14 Foreign exchange
Transactions in currencies other than pounds sterling are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At each reporting end date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the reporting end date. Gains and losses arising on translation are included in net income/(expenditure for the period.
1.15 Legal status of the Trust
The Charitable Company is a company limited by guarantee and has no share capital. in the event of the charitable company being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charitable company.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
The key judgements and estimates made in preparing the accounts are the valuation of freehold property. The residual value has been estimated to be more than the buildings original cost and therefore no depreciation has been charged on this basis.
The trustees have made a judgement on whether each property is impaired, where such a judgement has been made this has been explained in the notes to the accounts
