MANOR PARK CHRISTIAN CENTRE
Annual Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31 December 2023
The Trustees submit their report and the financial statements of Manor Park Christian Centre (“MPCC”) for the year ended 31 December 2023. The financial statements have been prepared in the format prescribed by the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP2019 (FRS102)) and the Financial Reporting Standard 102. The legal and administrative information set out earlier in this document forms part of this report. This report also constitutes a directors’ report required by section 415 of the Companies Act 2006 as all Trustees of a charity company are directors.
1. Structure, Governance & Management
1.1 Trustees
The Trustees of MPCC are responsible for the day to day management of MPCC’s business in accordance with MPCC’s objects. The Trustees meet approximately 11 times per annum to discuss a full range of matters relating to finance, fabric, general administration and the implementation of the objects of the charity.
None of MPCC’s Trustees, with the exception of the Pastor, receive remuneration.
The induction process for any individual newly-appointed to the Trustees comprises an initial meeting with the Pastor and receipt of copies of:
-
the objects of the charity
-
the most recent financial statements
-
the Charity Commission’s guidance ‘The Essential Trustee’.
1.2 Risk Management
MPCC’s primary concern and objective is the glory of God. Whilst it is MPCC’s policy to trust wholly in the Lord that He will work out His purpose to this end, MPCC also acknowledges that it has a responsibility for the identification and proper management of risks faced by MPCC in achieving its primary aim. The Trustees have therefore assessed the major risks to which MPCC is exposed, in particular those relating to the specific operational areas of the charity and its finances. The Trustees believe that, by monitoring reserve levels, by ensuring that controls exist over key financial systems, and by examining the operational risks faced by MPCC, they have established effective systems and procedures to mitigate those risks.
2. Activities, Strategies and the Public Benefit
MPCC is a vibrant urban multi-ethnic evangelical congregation with a membership of around 150. The Trustees have given due regard to the Charity Commissions’ guidance on public benefit. The Trustees believe that MPCC provides benefit to the public by:
- providing resources and facilities for public worship, pastoral care and spiritual, moral and educational development, both for the congregation and for anyone else who wishes to benefit from what MPCC offers; promoting Christian values and service by members of the congregation to the community, for the benefit of individuals and society as a whole, such as the Seniors Lunch, the police breakfasts and training days for the London Met Police NE-CU, the MPCC Newham Food Bank for the needy, and the NEWway Project night shelter for the homeless, and the various courses that are offered for personal benefit, such as the CAP Money Course (a personal financial budgeting course).
3. Achievements and Performance
The main objects of the church were mainly carried out through MPCC’s Cell Groups and Salt & Light Groups. Other ministries that greatly contributed to the church's ministry achievements included:
-
the children’s ministry
-
othe youth ministryothe prayer ministryothe discipleship ministryothe catering ministryothe compassionate ministryothe music ministry

4. Financial Review
MPCC’s main sources of funding are the free will offerings of church members and rental income from the hiring out of the church building.
4.1 Financial Activity and Financial Position
The Statement of Financial Activities and Balance Sheet can be found on pages 7 and 8 respectively. MPCC’s reserves decreased by £15,333 (2022: increased by £6,676) during the year. The balance sheet shows total net assets of £1,246,776 (2022: £1,262,109).
Included in total funds are amounts totalling £4,473 (2022: £1,103) which are restricted. These monies have either been raised for, and their use restricted to, specific purposes, or they comprise donations subject to donor imposed conditions. Full details of these restricted funds can be found in note 8 to the accounts together with an analysis of movements in the year.
4.2 Reserves Policy
The Trustees have examined the requirements for free reserves, i.e. those unrestricted funds not invested in tangible fixed assets. In light of the present financial climate the Trustees consider that, given the nature of MPCC’s work, free reserves should be equivalent to approximately 12 months’ routine general fund expenditure, plus committed future expenditure on other projects, where funds permit. The Trustees are of the opinion that this provides sufficient flexibility to cover temporary shortfalls in incoming resources and will allow MPCC to cope and respond to unforeseen emergencies whilst specific action plans are implemented. At 31 December 2023 MPCC had net free reserves of £341,999 (2022: £360,702) as follows:
| Total reserves Less: restricted funds Less: unrestricted fixed assets used for the continuing work of MPCC Free reserves Free reserves requirement: 12 months budgeted routine expenditure Amounts earmarked for property purchase Total free reserves requirement |
2023 | 2022 £ 1,262,109 (1,103 (900,304 |
) ) |
|---|---|---|---|
| £ | |||
| 1,246,776 | |||
| (4,473) | |||
(900,304) |
|||
| 360,702 | |||

|||
| 110,000 250,702 |
|||
| 360,702 | |||
The church is considering adding to its staff to help with its various ministries in the near future; the investment (in salary and accommodation costs) is likely to involve annual deficits which will be funded from reserves.
4.3 Investment Policy
MPCC currently invests funds in excess of working capital requirements in short term bank deposits.
4.4 Grants Policy
MPCC makes grants, equivalent to approximately 10% of its incoming resources annually, to support missions both in the UK and abroad. The policy of MPCC is to give grants on the basis that they are subject to annual review and only renewed on the basis of meeting set criteria. The mission agencies regularly supported include Cell UK, Central African Missions in Congo, Newham Christian Fellowship (Transform Newham), Newham Youth For Christ, Open Doors, Teen Challenge London, and Watoto Child Care Ministries in Uganda. In addition MPCC makes anonymous love gifts, at the discretion of the trustees, to those in need within the MPCC church fellowship or the local community. For details of grants made, see note 3b.

5. Plans for Future Periods
MPCC anticipates the possible increase of church ministry staff financial obligations in the future. MPCC also makes provision for increasing engagement in various endeavours in the community. MPCC’s continuing commitment to the Compassionate Ministries also includes the ever-increasing financial support, for example, the Oasis ministry for a warm space for the community, the MPCC Newham Food Bank for the needy, and the NEW way Night Shelter for the homeless.
6. Responsibilities of Trustees for the Financial Statements
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. Charity law in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial period which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period.
In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any 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 activities of the charity will continue.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enables them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the governing document. The Trustees is 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. The Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the charity and financial information included in the charity’s website.
7. Approval

MANOR PARK CHRISTIAN CENTRE
Report of the Independent Examiner to the Trustees of Manor Park Christian Centre
I report on the accounts of the Manor Park Christian Centre for the year ended 31 December 2023, set out on pages 7 to 15.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (“the 2011 Act”) and that an independent examination is needed. The charity is required by company law to prepare accrued accounts and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the 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 you as 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.
Independent examiner's statement
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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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
-
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.

MANOR PARK CHRISTIAN CENTRE
Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 31 December 2023
1. Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
Basis of accounting
The financial statements have been prepared under the Charities Act 2011 and in accordance with the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and Financial Reporting Standard 102 (FRS 102). The financial statements are drawn up on the historical cost basis of accounting except for the revaluation of freehold land and buildings which are in use which are shown at market value.
The financial statements include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the Trustees is responsible in law. They do not include the accounts of church groups that owe an affiliation to another body or those that are informal gatherings of church members.
MPCC meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
Going Concern
There are no material uncertainties about the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern and accordingly the accounts have been drawn up on a going concern basis.
Income recognition
Voluntary income and donations (including legacies) are accounted for once MPCC has entitlement to the income, it is probable the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be reliably measured.
Income from the recovery of tax on gift aided donations is accounted for in the period to which the relevant donation is received. Grant income is recognised on a receivable basis. The income from trading activities includes rental income from the letting of the church premises which is accounted for when earned. It is shown gross, with the associated costs included in fundraising costs.
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by MPCC; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.
Expenditure recognition
Expenditure is accrued as soon as a liability is considered probable, and the amount of obligation can be measured reliably. MPCC is not registered for VAT and accordingly expenditure includes VAT where appropriate.
Charitable expenditure includes those costs in fulfilling MPCC’s principal objects, as outlined in the Report of the Trustees. These include grants made, governance costs and an apportionment of support costs. Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of MPCC and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These costs include costs related to the independent examination and legal fees.
Rentals under operating leases are charged as incurred over the term of the lease.
Tangible Fixed Assets
Tangible fixed assets are accounted for as follows:
-
The church freehold land and buildings (the manses) are stated at valuation, with the most recent valuation taking place as at 31 December 2015 and the next valuation is expected to take place for the year ended 31 December 2023. Depreciation is not provided as the estimated residual value is considered to be the same or higher than the carrying value of the property in the accounts.
-
The church building is not owned by MPCC and has not been capitalised in these accounts.
-
The cost of furniture, fittings and equipment, less any expected residual value, is depreciated on a straight line basis over the effective useful life of the asset, which has been estimated as between 4 and 7 years
Debtors
Debtors are included at the settlement amount due. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid.

MANOR PARK CHRISTIAN CENTRE
Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 31 December 2023
1. Accounting Policies (continued)
Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of opening of the deposit.
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 recognised at their settlement amount. Longer term liabilities are discounted to present value.
Fund accounting
The funds held by the charity are either:
-
Unrestricted general funds - these are funds which can be used in accordance with the charitable objects at the discretion of the trustees.
-
Restricted funds - these are funds that 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.
