the next section of this report.
Achievements ond Perfomionce
Relotionol Mission continues to portner with Newfrontiers {newfrontierstogether.orgl in
terms of apostolic leadership and is responsible for a family of approximately 75+
churches, church plants and pioneering situations in 18+ nations ocross the world,
helping in excess of 5,000 individuols.
The period up to 31 December 2020 hos seen some octivity thot continues to fortify
relationships amongst churches and their leadership teams. At the same time, the
Trustees and management teams have been refining the model of operation and
structure for Relotionol Mission to ensure momentum ond finonciol sustainobility ore in
place for the long term.
Following on f rom the Relational Mission Leadership and SENT 'Courage' conference
in 2018, and the 'Gathering' meetings held over 2018 to early 2020, we were well
odvonced in plonning ond orgonising the June 2020 Relotionol Mission Leodership ond
SENT Conference I'The Call'l when the COVID-19 pandemic hit.
As a result of the pandemic, we made the difficult decision to cancel The Call, meaning
there would not be the some opportunity to toke up our newly lounched 'Call to Give,
offering when we gothered together. We felt thot it wos right to continue with our Coll
to Give offering, albeit in a predominately online form, and we were thrilled to raise
over £1 00,000 IÉ I I 0,0001.
Alongside helping us to 'steady the ship, financially and navigating the cancellation of
The Call, this fund hos been and will continue to be critical in helping us in our next
stages of mission together. It will be used to release gifted people to serve amongst us,.
encouroging us to run the roces to which we ore eoch colled, whilst embodying the
volues we hold dear. It will give rise to pioneering men and women breaking ground in
new nations and communities globally, as well as provide the ongoing support they
need. It will be used to shape tools ond initiotives to help empower ond motivote us to
give witness of the gospel in our broken wodd, ond obove oll will help our communities
of churches thrive and multiply across the nations.
In 2019 we launched Relational Mission's expansive vision to be globally fruitful,
crossing oll boundories to reoch the notions, moke disciples ond plant locolly led
churches. We believe God has said that we can expect to ochieve more in 20 years
than many have in 50 and we asked our family of churches to imagine with us...
establishing 5 multiplying churches in each continent of the world by 2030

called to church planting (however slightlyll,. those churches who are sending out
pioneers,. those who want to support the mission through investment or prayer.
The global element of our vision is definitely the most embryonic. But we feel inspired
rother thon dounted by the prospett of reoching into ports of the wodd thot, up until
now, we have hardly touched. We currently have just a fistful of pioneering situations
beyond Europe, and yet our hope 15 to see five multiplying churches on each of those

RELATIONAL MISSION
Trustee's Report
Finonciol Review
Relational Mission is financially dependent upon the donations made by supporting
churches, individuals {via its grassroots giving scheme), grants from charitable trusts
and income generated via events.
Relational Mission Trustees and team would like to thank all the churche5, individuals
and organisotions that hove supported the chority throughout the year.
During the year Relotional Mission had income of £643,696 (2019.. £487,422) of
which £140,07812019.. £68,620) was for restritted purposes - for example, Christmos
oppeol monies, ond gronts received to help specific chLJrch plonting ond pioneering
situotions.
Expended resources for the period were £528,58212019.. £567,914) in totol of which
£104,49612019.. £61,450) were restricted.
Given the globol impact of COVID-19 ot the outset of 2020, the Relational Mission
Apostolic team, Trustee5, and management team reviewed planned activity and set
about re-working this in light of the potential for reduced income.
The difficult decision was taken to cancel The Call (Leadership and SENT conference),
meaning there was not the same opportunity to take up our newly launched 'Call to Give,
offering than if we had been able to gather. We felt that it was right to continue with our
Call to Give offering. albeit in a predominately online form, and we were thrilled to raise
over £1 00,000 IÉ I I 0,0001. This wos the most significant portion of income for the chority
during the yeor. As discussed in the 'Achievements ond Performonce, section obove,
olongside helping LJS to 'steody the ship, finonciolly ond novigoting the concellotion of The
Call Leadership Conference, this fund has been and will continue to be critical in helping
us in our next stages of mission together. It will be used to release gifted people to serye
amongst Us,. encouraging us to run the races to which we are each called, whilst embodying
the values we hold dear. It will give rise to pioneering men and women breaking ground in
new notions ond communities globolly, os well os provide the ongoing support they need.
It will be used to shope tools ond initiotives to help empower ond motivote us to give witness
of the gospel in our broken world, and obove oll will help our commur)ities of churches
thrive ond multiply ocross the notions.
All other planned event octivity occurred online, and event income was not significant in the
yeor.

Contracts and associated risks are reviewed before being finalised to ensure they do

level of commitments held. The Trustees endeovour not to set oside funds unnecessorily.

the designated funds held, are in line with the policy at the year end.
During 2020 the opostles of Relotionol Mission hove been prayerfully evoluoting whot is
required to drive us towards the fulfilment of the vision that God hos laid on our hearts,
including how our operation might change now that the team of apostles has grown from
one to three. Through careful considerotion of New Testament proctice and insightful
prophetic wisdom, we hove become cor)vinced thot the operotionol vehicle that hos served
Relational Mission so well in its formation is not the only vehicle that will help us deliver this
cross-culturol wodd-wide vision in the future. We believe that these ongoing discussions ore
moving us towards different vehicles thot will ollow for the reody multiplicotion of five-fold
ministry in the nations, and for the multiplication of apostolic mission to the UK, Europe, and
each of the Continents of the world. At 31 December 2020 and post year end to date, no
changes hove been mode to the existing charity.
Structure, Govemance and Management
Four trustees hove run Relational Mission over this period {five Trustees until Morch
20201, each with differing bockgrounds ond expertise thot con contribute to the delivery
of the charity's objectives. Every Trustee that is appointed is inducted in line with
guidance laid down by the Charity Commission.
The policy ond key operoting decisions ore the responsibility of the Trustees, who meet
regulorly to monitor the octivities of the chority, hoving regord to odvice from the
Apostolic Teom. The Apostolic Teom (Mike Betts, Stefon Liston & Mourice Nightingolel,
os well as providing spiritual oversight and direction, oversee day to doy operations,
together with the Heod of Operations (James Taylor).
As outlined eadier in our achievement and performance section, 2020 saw the charity
begin adjusting its shape of operation to embrace its new vision. This will be worked
through further in 2021.
Relational Mission hos o defined pay scale ond bondings based on level of responsibility
and experience. This forms the bosis for Trustee decisions over the poy for key
monogement personnel.
The apostles and by extension the Relational Mission Charity are affiliated to
Newfrontiers. While this affiliation is important from a historical, relational, and
maintaining values perspective it has limited impact on day-to-day operations.

The charity is a charitable company limited by guarantee and is incorporated in the United Kingdom. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page. 

These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention. 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). They also comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011. 

The principles adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. 

## Going concern 

The trustees (who are the charitable company's directors for the purposes of company law) have assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. In particular the trustees have considered the charity's forecasts and projections and the possible implications should projected income and / or expenditure vary unexpectedly. The trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future. The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements. 

Income including investment income is recognised in the period in which the charity becomes entitled to receipt, the amount receivable can be measured with reasonable certainty, and receipt is probable. For the most part, income is generally recognised when it is received. Income is only deferred when the charity has to fulfil conditions before becoming entitled to it or where the donor has specified that the income is to be expended in a future period. 

Income from donations and legacies includes: 

- i) Recoverable gift aid. This is recognised when the related donation is received. Gift aid that has not been recovered by the balance sheet date is included as a debtor. 

- ii) Donated facilities, services and goods. Goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries are recognised as income when receivable at fair value (being an estimate of the amount it would cost to purchase those items). [Goods donated for resale are recognised as income at the point of sale (as the sale proceeds cannot be estimated reliably before the goods are sold)]. Facilities, services and goods donated for the charity's own use are recognised as income when receivable at their value to the charity. 

The charity relies on volunteers to carry out many of its activities. However, in accordance with the SORP, the value of these services has not been included in these financial statements as they cannot be reliably measured. 

When donated goods, services and facilities are distributed or consumed, an expense in respect of those items is included in the Statement of Financial Activities. At the year end any goods that have not been distributed or consumed are recognised as stock; donated fixed assets are capitalised. 

- iii) Legacies. Income from legacies is recognised when a distribution is received from the estate or, if earlier, when the charity has been notified that a distribution will be made and the amount receivable can be measured reliably. 

Income from charitable activities represents income receivable from goods, services and facilities supplied in furtherance of the charity's charitable objects.  It includes income from conferences and other events. 

Investment income represents income generated by the charity's assets and includes income from bank interest. 



Expenditure, including irrecoverable VAT, is recognised when it is incurred or, if earlier, when a legal or constructive obligation for a payment arises provided that it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 

The charity makes grants to other institutions and individuals to further its charitable objectives. Grants payable are recognised as constructive obligations arise, which is generally when the charity expresses a commitment to the recipient that can be measured reliably and then only to the extent that any conditions associated with the grant are outside of the control of the charity. 

The cost of raising funds is not significant and has not been separately disclosed. 

Governance costs, which are included in expenditure on charitable activities but are identified separately in the notes to the accounts, includes costs associated with the independent examination of the financial statements, compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements and any other expenditure incurred on the strategic management of the charity. 

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. Restricted funds are donations which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors; they include donations received from appeals for specific activities or projects. 

The charity operates defined contribution pension schemes for its employees. Obligations for contributions to these schemes are recognised as an expense when the liability arises. The assets of these schemes are held separately from those of the charity in independently administered funds. 


The charity's financial assets and financial liabilities all qualify as basic financial instruments, as defined by FRS102. Except for loans, creditors and debtors are measured at their expected settlement value (normally the amount of cash that the charity expects to pay or receive). The charity recognises liabilities for the principal of those loans that remains outstanding at the year end (i.e. the liabilities exclude any interest chargeable on the loans in future years).
