REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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
Objectives and aims
The charity is established for the advancement of the Christian religion, to bring people together from all walks of life with the aim of encouraging and assisting them to join in our vision to promote advancement in the practice of non-denomination Christian worship and to work together to be a blessing to all people everywhere. We aim to spread the word of God for the benefit of all people of the world so that they can achieve spiritual enlightenment and fulfilment. We aim to provide and maintain places of worship where people can meet and share ideas and visions for achieving these objectives.
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.
Significant activities
The main activities that were carried out in 2021 and 2022 were as follows:
1. SUNDAY MEETING
On Sunday, a regular meeting is held at PFWM Chapel in Skewen, Swansea. This meeting started with a group of 10 people and now attracts around 25 people each week.
2. CHILDREN MINISTRY
Teaching, guiding and encouraging children is part of the work we focus upon. Each Sunday, we connect with around 15 children. We also run a youth club for children of 3 years old and above.
3. LAY PREACHING
We visit around 10 different churches in south Wales for preaching, teaching and encouraging.
4. STREET MINISTRY
We take the Gospel to the street, teaching, encouraging and giving a new hope of life. Street Ministry is carried out in Neath, Swansea and Port Talbot; many people have been encouraged and strengthened through this Ministry.
5.FOOD SHARE
We donate food to members of the community in conjunction with Tesco and other supermarkets/businesses.
6. CITY ELDERS MEETING
A monthly prayer meeting of Church Elders is held, praying for the churches in Swansea and giving an important Church unity.
7. CLOTHES HUB
We receive donations of clothing, which are then distributed to the community as needed.
Public benefit
The trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit and have had regard to it when reviewing the aims and objectives of the charity and in planning its future activities.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Volunteers
The charity benefits from volunteer time, although this is not quantified within the Statement of Financial Activities. Volunteers play a key role in delivering the charity's aims, objectives and activities.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
The charity has reported a small surplus in the current year. Donation income continues to be the main income source and the trustees inject additional donations to ensure that the charity can meet its expenditure levels.
Principal funding sources
The charity currently only receives funding from donations.
Details of the funds in use during the period can be found in the notes to the financial statements.
Reserves policy
The trustees are committed to maintaining positive cash flow and to retain sufficient reserves to meet unexpected eventualities. At the year end, the charity had £850 of unrestricted reserves (2021: negative reserves of £7,989). The trustee's target for unrestricted reserves is £8,000, being the approximate level to cover 6 months of operating expenditure. The trustees plan to generate surpluses in future periods with the aim of increasing the unrestricted reserves position.
Going concern
The charity has the ongoing support of its donors, the trustees and the community in which it operates. The trustees expect future donation income to be sufficient to cover operating expenditure, whilst also increasing retained reserve to the target specified above. Accordingly, the trustees adopt the going concern basis of accounting.
FUTURE PLANS
Renovation of the chapel in Skewen is an ongoing long term project, the aim being to restore the Grade II listed building for future generations to enjoy. The trustees and volunteers will continue to open the chapel as a house of prayer and we are giving guidance of both a spiritual and general nature to anyone wanting to come and talk over their problems or needs.
We will continue to build partnerships with other churches, doing all we can to bring back more people to the church in general and to increase membership of the Christian Faith.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
New trustees are recruited and appointed by existing trustees.
Risk management
The trustees have identified and reviewed the risks to which the charity is exposed and have implemented appropriate systems and controls to manage those risks.
The main financial risk facing the charity is the sourcing of funds; the charity's main sources of income are donations. The trustees mitigate this risk by diversifying income streams to ensure that the charity is not reliant on one source of income. The trustees continue to actively seek new opportunities for external funding.

The charitable company's registered number and registered office address can be found in the Trustee's report. The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
Going Concern
The trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and accordingly adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to the donations received under Gift Aid or Deeds of Covenant is recognised at the time of the donations.
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 and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Governance costs
Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.
Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities. Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds 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.
Donated services or facilities
Such amounts are recognised as income and expenditure when the benefit to the charity can be reasonably quantified or measured and is considered material to the charity.
Gifts in kind
Gifts in kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount actually realised, if such gifts are subsequently disposed of or realised.
Financial statements
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.
3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of the company's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts 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 which 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 if the revision only effects that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The following are the critical judgements that the directors have made in the process of applying the company's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.
Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting date, the trustees review the carrying amounts of tangible fixed assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any.
