TRUSTEES’/DIRECTORS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

The trustees present their report and unaudited financial statements of the charitable company for the year ended 31 December 2020.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the notes to the accounts and comply with the charity’s governing documents, the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland published in October 2019.

Trustees of the Charity

The directors of the charitable company are its trustees for the purposes of charity law. Details of the trustees who have served during the year and since the year end can be found on page 5.

OBJECTS AND ACTIVITIES

The charity’s objects for the public benefit are to advance the Christian Faith, in accordance with the Statement of Beliefs shown below, in the United Kingdom or the world as the trustees may from time to time think fit and to fulfil such other purposes which are exclusively charitable according to the law of England and Wales and are connected to the charitable work of the charity.

Statement of Beliefs

We believe in:

  1. The one true God who lives eternally in three persons - the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

  2. The love, grace and sovereignty of God in creating, sustaining, ruling, redeeming and judging the world.

  3. The divine inspiration and supreme authority of the Old and New Testament Scriptures, which are the written Word of God - fully trustworthy for faith and conduct.

  4. The dignity of all people, made male and female in God’s image to love, be holy and care for creation, yet corrupted by sin, which incurs divine wrath and judgement.

  5. The incarnation of God’s eternal Son, the Lord Jesus Christ - born of the Virgin Mary, truly divine and truly human, yet without sin.

  6. The atoning sacrifice of Christ on the cross: dying in our place, paying the price of sin and defeating evil, so reconciling us with God.

  7. The bodily resurrection of Christ, the first fruits of our resurrection; his ascension to the Father, and his reign and mediation as the only Saviour of the world.

  8. The justification of sinners solely by the grace of God through faith in Christ.

  9. The ministry of God and The Holy Spirit, who leads us to repentance, unites us with Christ through new birth, empowers our discipleship and enables our witness.

  10. The Church, the body of Christ both local and universal, and the priesthood of all believers - given life by the Spirit and endowed with the Spirit’s gifts to worship God and proclaim the gospel, promoting justice and love.

  11. The personal and visible return of Jesus Christ to fulfil the purposes of God, who will raise all people to judgement, bring eternal life to the redeemed and eternal condemnation to the lost, and establish a new heaven and new earth.

  12. We are committed to serve our community without discrimination of religion, race, nationality, culture, age or on any other basis.

  13. We do not require any of our clients to affirm or assent to any of the above Statement of Faith.

TRUSTEES’/DIRECTORS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

The trustees assess the success of the charity in the year against the following criteria:

  1. Expansion of the Christ Central Churches network.

  2. Strength of partnerships with similar church networks.

  3. Continued development of services to provide leadership, consultancy and pastoral care to partnering churches.

  4. Planting of new churches.

  5. Leadership events and training programmes that support and develop individuals and churches being well attended and well received.

  6. The attendance at and impact of our UK annual event in August – online in 2020.

Volunteers have a very significant role in the charity as quite a lot of the ministry, planning and event management is run by them. All volunteers are drawn from our partnering churches, some of whom are employed by those churches so the partner churches themselves are volunteering their people resources.

The trustees regularly review the objectives and activities of the charity and, as part of this review, have considered the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and, in particular, its supplementary guidance on the advancement of religion for the public benefit.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

The charity carries out a range of activities in pursuance of its charitable aims. The trustees consider that these activities, as summarised below, provide benefit to both the churches with which the charity partners and the wider communities that those churches serve.

During the year under review, the main areas of progress and achievement included:

  1. The granting of gifts to facilitate the establishment of new churches.

  2. The granting of gifts to other charitable organisations with similar objectives.

  3. Expansion and development of the Christ Central Churches network.

  4. Expansion and development of services to provide leadership, consultancy and pastoral care to partnering churches.

  5. Expansion and development of the Christ Central Churches international leadership team.

  6. Running church leadership, training events, and prayer events - both in person and online.

  7. Support for Jubilee+.

The trustees monitor the following key performance indicators to assess the outcomes achieved by the charity’s activities:

  1. Amount of giving from partnering churches.

  2. The growth in the number of partnering churches.

  3. The development and evolution of services to provide higher quality leadership, consultancy and pastoral care to partnering churches.

  4. Level of attendance and quality of provision for our annual event and other leadership events.

  5. Level of attendance, quality of provision and relevance of our training programmes.

  6. The development of our international team and the delegation of responsibilities to a wider range of leaders in the UK.

CHRIST CENTRAL CHURCHES WORLDWIDE (a Company Limited by Guarantee)

TRUSTEES’/DIRECTORS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

There are a number of factors which have affected the achievements and objectives of the charity and have had an effect on future plans, these include:

  1. The development of the international team and the growth in the number of churches in the network during the last year was a significant positive factor.

  2. The leadership structure continued to change in response to growth internationally, to facilitate an increase in the number of partnering churches in the UK and an increase in the number and quality of leadership, consultancy and pastoral care services provided.

  3. The further leadership structure changes and growth had an impact on internal systems and administration.

  4. The annual event is high risk as it is based on partner churches and individuals getting involved in running and attending the event. Additional reserves are required for it. It is also a generator, or otherwise, of funding for further development.

  5. The global Covid-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on travelling and supporting churches, particularly internationally, and on main events. However, the use of virtual meetings, pre-recorded material, social media and successfully running training online has mitigated that impact considerably. The pandemic has also had a significant effect on member churches.

The trustees are very happy with the overall outcome of the above in meeting the charity’s stated objectives and envisage sustained growth and development of the organisation within the foreseeable future.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Total income for the year amounted to £521,438 (2019: £556,540) of which £209,659 (2019: £41,878) was restricted. Expenditure of £428,986 (2019: £559,569) was incurred of which £170,119 (2019: £20,527) was for restricted purposes. At 31 December 2020, the charity had unrestricted funds of £230,303 (2019: £177,391) - of which £15,304 (2019: £20,315) were designated by the Trustees for crisis relief - and restricted funds of £65,063 (2019: £25,523).

The trustees are satisfied with the financial position of the organisation at 31 December 2020 and are optimistic that the strategies in place will lead to the organisation being able to fulfil its growth objectives.

Investment Policy

The charity’s surplus funds are invested in accounts with Barclays Bank. The trustees have power to invest any money not immediately required for the furtherance of the charity’s objects in or upon such investments, securities (including the making of loans) or property as may be thought fit, subject to such conditions (if any) and such consent (if any) as may from time to time be imposed or required by law.

Reserves Policy

The trustees have established a policy of maintaining a minimum level of cash-backed unrestricted reserves sufficient to cover three months critical/core costs including salaries, governance and committed grant funding costs. Based on current levels of expenditure, the trustees estimate a requirement for minimum reserves of circa £100,000 of which £50,000 are for operational costs and £50,000 for the annual Devoted festival when operating as an in-person event. The August 2021 conference is already planned to be online, with a decision to be made over holding a major in-person gathering in 2022. This level of cash-backed unrestricted reserves was achieved at both 31 December 2019 and 31 December 2020.

Significant Events affecting Financial Performance and Financial Position

The general giving from member churches remained very steady during 2020 despite the onset of financial challenges due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The most significant event that affected financial performance was an online offering from supporters in the autumn. The annual conference was an online only event which minimised costs and as a result incurred no significant financial deficit.

The annual conference remains the principal uncertainty along with partnering churches remaining part of the network. These risks are managed through strong relationship building, provision of services, shared culture and good communications and publicity. Successfully moving training and some events online has also facilitated the management of risk. The Board manages risk using a risk management policy and risk register.

Page 4

CHRIST CENTRAL CHURCHES WORLDWIDE (a Company Limited by Guarantee)

TRUSTEES’/DIRECTORS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

The future performance and position of the charity is likely to be affected by attendance at the annual conference and a successful online alternative as it is apparent that it cannot take place as a live event this year. Other factors include continued growth of the network particularly in the UK.

PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS

The organisation’s planned initiatives for the current and subsequent financial years include:

  1. Continued expansion and development of the Christ Central Churches network.

  2. Partnering with, and support of, other similar church networks.

  3. Continued expansion and development of services to provide leadership, consultancy and pastoral care to partnering churches.

  4. An increase in funds granted to facilitate the establishment of new churches.

  5. Running conferences.

  6. Continued running of church leadership and training events.

The future direction of the charity is to increase the number of partnering churches both in the UK and abroad, to plant new churches, to provide an increasing number of quality leadership, consultancy and pastoral care services and to increase funding to similar networks and charities both in the UK and abroad.

The growth in member churches and the further development of the leadership structure as a result has led to an ongoing review of systems and processes. The development and broadening of leadership will facilitate and provide increased capacity and better allocation of resources to handle the growth of the network and the services provided.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing Document

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 21 November 2012, and was registered with the Charity Commission from 28 March 2013. In the event of the company being wound up, members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £10.

Appointment of Trustees

New trustees are appointed on the recommendation of existing trustees/members. There is a required minimum of three trustees but no maximum number.

Trustees whose turn it is to retire each year will be automatically re-elected unless they or the remaining trustees decide otherwise.

Trustees’ Induction and Training

Trustees are already familiar with the work of the charity as they are drawn from churches that partner the organisation. The exception, Charles Glass, is a trustee of a closely related charity with a very similar purpose. New trustees are provided with Charity Commission guidance for new trustees, along with finance and process documentation, and minutes of previous trustees’ meetings related to Christ Central Churches Worldwide. They are also given an introduction to the work of the charity and their responsibilities

Trustees are encouraged to attend appropriate internal/external training events to facilitate the undertaking of their roles and to keep up to date with legislative changes.

Organisation

The management and administration of the charity is under the control of the trustees who meet three times per year. Day to day operational matters are delegated to Graham Anns (Chief Operational Officer).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) General Information and Basis of Preparation

Christ Central Churches Worldwide is a private company limited by guarantee registered in England. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £10 per member of the charity. The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 5 of these financial statements. The nature of the charity’s operations and principal activities are to advance the Christian faith.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. 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) issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention. The financial statements are presented in pounds sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity, and rounded to the nearest pound.

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.

(b) Income Recognition

All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to that income, there is sufficient certainty of receipt and it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount of income can be measured reliably.

Grants and Donations

Where donors specify that grants or donations are for a particular restricted purpose, which does not amount to pre-conditions regarding entitlement, the income is included in incoming reserves within restricted funds when received.

(c) Resources Expended

Resources expended are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities on an accruals basis, inclusive of VAT. Individual costs are allocated between the various headings in the Statement of Financial Activities by reference to their underlying nature or the reason for which those costs were incurred, on an estimated percentage basis.

(d) Unrestricted and Restricted Funds

Unrestricted funds comprise income received or generated by reference to the general objects of the charity without further specified purpose. Such funds may however be designated by the trustees for specific purposes from time to time.

Restricted funds are those donated for a specified purpose as laid down by the donor or as the result of a specific appeal or application. Such funds are kept separate from the unrestricted funds of the charity and only related expenditure is charged against them.

(e) Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation

Tangible fixed assets are capitalised and depreciated by 25% per annum, on the reducing balance basis, so as to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(f) Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

(g) Cash at Bank and in Hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

(h) Creditors and Provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting 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 after allowing for any trade discounts due.

(i) Pension Costs

Contributions, which are payable into the personal pension plans of individual members of staff, are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate. The charity operates a salary sacrifice scheme in respect of pension contributions.

(j) Going Concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with levels of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.

2. LEGAL STATUS OF THE CHARITY

The charity is a company limited by guarantee and has no share capital registered in England and Wales. The liability of each member in the event of winding up is limited to £10.

Unrestricted Funds

Of the unrestricted funds the trustees have designated the non-restricted balance on the ‘Hope’ bank account of £15,304 (2019: £20,315) for general crisis relief.

Restricted Funds

Support for J . Mwila - the income received is to support the work of Mr. Mwila in Zambia and other nations.

Support for L. Yarborough - the income received is to support the work of Mr. Yarborough in Mexico and other nations.

Canada travel costs - this represents income from the Newday conference in 2018 and has been used to fund travel costs for Mr. J. Simpkins in his support of a church plant in Toronto. For reasons outside the control of the charity this project has come to an end. The balance of these funds is to be used for future church-planting in either Canada or the UK, which are also supported by Newday.

Covid-19 appeal – in the west, we are fortunate to live in nations with highly developed healthcare systems and have governments who can offer financial support to those in hardship. This is not the case in many developing countries. In these nations, the majority of the population live a subsistence lifestyle where people earn money each day to support their families. Such environments make having a lockdown very difficult.

We therefore launched an appeal to support some of the Christ Central Churches in those countries which have been most severely affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.

African nations project - this was an appeal to provide relief from drought and famine mainly in Zambia but could be extended to include other affected African nations.
