REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the year ended 31st March 2022 ( Continued)
Achievements and Performance
During the year the charitable company has pursued its main objectives as being the provision of church and associated activities to the people of Henley on Thames and surrounding community and has received General income amounting to £169,344. Designated income of £nil and Restricted income of £89,845. Expenditure on the General fund amounted to £179,895. Designated expenditure was £6,491 and Restricted expenditure was £48,174.
The d:two Centre which is owned by the Henley Baptist Church has a large entrance area which also serves as a Community café and meeting area, a small bookshop, and a large hall. It has many ancillary meeting rooms, a large kitchen, a purpose-built Children’s Centre and a suite of offices used by the church and other projects. The d:two Centre also provides a base for the NOMAD Food Bank which is run by the NOMAD Youth and Community Project with assistance from the Church.
The main source of income is from donations.
During the year the Charity sold its share in the Valley Road Manse. This resulted in a realised gain of £156,823. A new manse was then purchased on Cooper Road from the proceeds of the sale, a loan and donations.
Financial Review
The total income for the year was £259,189, total expenditure on charitable activities amounted to £234,560. The amount held in reserves at the year end was £2,041,409 in unrestricted reserves, £16,154 in designated reserves and £25,847 in restricted reserves.
Reserves Policy
The trustees have examined the charity’s requirements for reserves taking into account the main risks to the organisation. Given that the majority of the charitable company’s income is donations from church members, a regular source of income adequate to cover budgeted expenditure, it has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets and held in reserve by the charity should be sufficient to cover three month’s expenditure.
The trustees’ are aiming for a 3 month reserve target at this point by saving an amount of £250 each month supplemented by any other surplus income that becomes available.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Henley Baptist Church for the year ended 31st March 2022.
Responsibilities and Basis of Report
As the charity’s trustees (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (“the 2006 Act”).
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the charitable company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (“the 2011 Act”). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent Examiner’s Statement
Since the Companies gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Accountants which is one of the listed bodies.

-
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

HENLEY BAPTIST CHURCH
NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS for the year ended 31st March 2022
1. Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
a) Basis of Preparation
The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the 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) – (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.
Public Benefit Entity
Henley Baptist Church meets the definition of a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.
Going Concern
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern.
b) Income Recognition Policies
Items of income are recognised and included in the accounts when all of the following criteria are met:
-
The charity 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.
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 Executors to the Trust that a distribution will be made; or
-
when a 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 Executors intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the Charity, or the Charity is aware of the granting of the probate and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.
Income received in advance of a specific performance or provision of other specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.
c) Donated Services
- In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) the general time of volunteers is not recognised in the accounts.
HENLEY BAPTIST CHURCH NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
for the year ended 31st March 2022 (continued)
d) Interest Receivable
- Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.
e) Fund Accounting
Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the Charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the Charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for the particular areas of the Charity’s work or for specific projects being undertaken by the Charity.
f) Expenditure and Irrecoverable VAT
-
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
-
Expenditure on Charitable activities includes the cost of running the activities of Henley Baptist Church and associated projects.
-
Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
g) Tangible Fixed Assets
Individual fixed assets are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on the straight line basis as follows:
| Asset | Annual |
|---|---|
| Category | Rate |
| Land | Nil |
| Buildings | 2% per annum |
| Equipment | 25% per annum |
h) Stock
Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Donated items of stock are recognised in income when the items are sold.
i) Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amounts due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid after taking account of any trade discounts due.
- j) 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.
k) 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.
