Annual Report of the Trustees

The Trustees are pleased to present their Report and Financial Statements for the year to 31 December 2022.

Structure, Governance and Management

The Anglican Alliance is based at St Andrew’s House, London. The Executive Director reports on progress to a Board of Trustees (who are also Directors for the purposes of Company Law) that meets at least three times per year. The Board delegates some responsibilities to a Finance and General Purposes Committee that also meets at least three times per year. The Audit and Risk Committee also meets annually.

Procedures have been put in place to ensure that the Trustees are made aware of their responsibilities at their first meeting. The Trustees consider the Board of Trustees and the Executive Director comprise the key management personnel of the charity in charge of directing and controlling, running and operating the charity on a day-to-day basis.

Public Benefit

The object of the Charity is to benefit the public by bringing together the development, relief and advocacy work of the churches of the Anglican Communion worldwide and the agencies associated with them, grounded in Christian faith to support the poor and oppressed people of the world. In preparing this report the Trustees have complied with their duty to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.

Risk Management

During the year the Board of Trustees reviewed the risk register. Procedures have been introduced to manage and reduce the risks identified, and further reviews take place regularly. An Audit and Risk Subcommittee meets once per year and on an ad hoc basis as required.

The charity concluded the 2021 year with a modest surplus in unrestricted funds. The 2022 year end saw a modest decline in the balance of unrestricted funds. The Trustees maintain the commitment to continue to grow and maintain a surplus to build a working reserve, with a target of 25% of annual turnover achieved.

The Executive Director and Board continue to focus on establishing a viable set of funding streams through 2023 and beyond. The main exposure relates to foreign exchange movements, as some income and costs, including overseas salaries, consultancies and activities are denominated in US Dollars. This risk is managed with prudent expenditure plans to allow for currency fluctuations, and regular reviews to ensure action is taken to reduce expenditure in the event of unforeseen cost increases or income reduction. The potential pressures of global and national financial challenges in the current global financial context continue to be monitored, with conservative budgeting moving forward to build financial resilience.

Throughout 2022 the Board reviewed the resilience of the Anglican Alliance operationally and financially in relation to the risks and consequences relating to the Covid pandemic, which impacted especially on the first half of 2022. The most significant risks lay in two areas. The first related to the operational challenges, with lockdowns and travel restrictions making international visits, in-person training and consultations impossible at this time. These challenges were largely mitigated by moving the Alliance’s global operations online, which continues to work successfully and has indeed added to the global connectedness and operational value of the organisation. The second risk related to potential pressures on income streams from 2023 onwards, with ongoing global financial pressures. This has been mitigated

3

in part by the reduced costs resulting from the new online operating model, which remained significantly in place as the world emerged from the pandemic, although some travel and in-person events resumed later in 2022.

The Board will continue to review closely the financial projections to make the necessary budgetary provisions for 2023 onwards.

Objectives, Achievements and Activities

The Anglican Alliance brings together the Anglican family of churches and agencies to work for a world free of poverty, inequality and injustice, to raise the voices of the vulnerable, to reconcile those in conflict, and to safeguard the earth.

The role of the Anglican Alliance is to connect and share capacity, skills, learning and resources across the worldwide Anglican Communion, present in 165 countries, to support its work in development, relief and advocacy. This global reach gives the Anglican Alliance work significant scale and potential.

Its three pillars of work support the Communion within the context of the Anglican Marks of Mission in:

The work is all grounded in an asset-based approach, whether at community level, or in gathering the assets of the Communion as a whole. Based on regional consultations and resolutions from the Instruments of Communion, with guidance from the Board and ACC Standing Committee, the Alliance currently has three strategic global priorities in which it works to support Anglican churches and agencies worldwide.:

The Anglican Alliance is able to leverage outcomes beyond is modest resources as it brings together the human capacities, church assets and financial means of Anglican churches and agencies across the world, sharing resources and expertise in collaborative effort. In 2022 the organisation’s income sustained the planned programme of activities and supported the increasing demand for the Anglican Alliance’s services in the final stages of the pandemic and into the recovery phase. The Lambeth Conference in mid-2022 was a significant moment, having been conceived at the previous Lambeth Conference. The Anglican Alliance was very significantly involved in the planning and delivery of the Conference and supported many programmatic areas which related to its thematic priorities and expertise. 2022 was a year of enhanced activity and expenditure. The Lambeth Conference was a key opportunity for the Anglican Alliance and the return to travel post-pandemic allowed for the disbursement of restricted funds carried over through the Covid years. This report highlights the most significant activities and outcomes in 2022 and is structured around the three pillars of the Anglican Alliance’s work: Relief & Resilience; Development; and Advocacy. Thematically these three pillars all interconnect.

4

Relief and Resilience:

The Anglican Alliance adds value by building disaster resilience and coordinating humanitarian support to Anglican provinces and dioceses responding to humanitarian crises. It works closely with a group of agencies and churches to connect for joint support so that the local church can have a simplified process for applications, communications and reporting. In 2022, the Alliance continued with its pandemic response, while increasingly resuming work in its other priority areas.

Covid-19 Response

Other Humanitarian Responses:

Building Disaster Resilience

Development:

Here the Anglican Alliance adds value by connecting and equipping churches and agencies across the Communion for sharing learning and skills and building joint strategic initiatives. The Anglican Alliance does not fund projects, but works to link, leverage joint assets and build coalitions. Highlights in 2022 included:

Environmental and Climate Justice

5

Safe Migration and Human Trafficking

Asset-Based Church and Community Transformation

Advocacy:

Here the Anglican Alliance adds value by helping to equip, connect and catalyse advocacy initiatives in the Communion, supporting Anglican leaders to speak out alongside people from affected communities. It also helps to broker and build coalitions with ecumenical and other partners for joint advocacy at global levels. Highlights in 2022 included:

6

Current situation of the Alliance

The Anglican Alliance has now been operating for over twelve years. During this time, it has established a strong reputation for connecting and equipping the worldwide churches and agencies to bring about transformational change in the lives of the poor and vulnerable. This reputation was cemented by the Anglican Alliance’s key role in supporting the Communion’s response to the Covid pandemic.

The Anglican Alliance also has an important convening function within the Anglican Communion. The experienced Executive Director has been in post since 2014 leading a small secretariat in the UK and a team of regional and project facilitators around the world, with a Senior Adviser based in Africa. The staff numbers are small, but the range of active participants in the Anglican Alliance’s activities, from churches and agencies around the worldwide Communion, is significant and ever growing. Its regional facilitators play a key role, along with the UK based Secretariat, in gathering forums to guide and support collaborative learning and action.

As a platform for the development, relief and advocacy initiatives of the worldwide Anglican Communion, the Anglican Alliance serves to connect this work at a global level with a range of external partners, including other faith based agencies and UN bodies. This adds value by building relationships and trust which help to broker partnerships for churches at the country level.

Donations in Kind

Reference has been made in this report to contributions from various quarters to the work of the Anglican Alliance. Some contributions have been financial, others in the form of the provision of personnel or facilities, as Anglican churches, charities and agencies around the world participate in Anglican Alliance activities. Among these donations in kind is office space for the Anglican Alliance at the Anglican Communion Office, and donated staff time from employees of the Anglican Consultative Council.

Grant-making Policies

The Anglican Alliance administers grants in accordance with the restricted purposes for which the funds were originally donated. Grants are paid as soon as the applications have been received and approved. However, the Anglican Alliance is not primarily a grant-making body and makes very few grants.

Financial Report for the year to 31 December 2022

The activities of the Anglican Alliance began as a restricted fund of The Anglican Consultative Council (charity number 1137273) in 2011. The Anglican Alliance was incorporated as a company limited by guarantee on 2 January 2013 and registered as a charity on 10 May 2013. The first Report and Financial Statements of the new charitable company were for the period ended 31 January 2014. This Report and Financial Statements are for the year ended 31 December 2022.

The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011 the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019).

The Balance Sheet sets out the overall financial position of the Anglican Alliance at 31 December 2022. It should be noted that each fund category is dealt with in a separate column, which is referenced to

7

notes in the accounts. The total fund balances at the end of 2022 (Reserves) were £137,607 (2021: £225,749).

Cash balances were £228,478 (2021: £236,232) as set out in the Statement of Cash Flows which accompanies these financial statements (Note 9). This reflected the fact that income exceeded expenditure during the year.

The main summary of financial transactions through the year is the Statement of Financial Activities or SOFA. This statement includes income and expenditure, transfers between the different funds and gains or losses on the values of investments. Separate supporting statements, set out in the same SOFA format, show in more detail General Fund transactions.

The General Fund generated net expenditure of £19,307, and had a balance at 31 December 2022 of £82,841 (2021: £102,148).

The Restricted Fund Balance at 31 December 2022 was £54,766 (2021: £123,601) of which the major constituents were the Resilience Course, Human Trafficking, and Church and Communities Transformation.

Reserves Policy and Going Concern

At the end of December 2022, the balance on General Fund was £82,841 (2021: £102,148) and the balance on Restricted Reserves was £54,766 (2021: £123,601). The balance of free reserves as at 31 December 2022 were £82,290 (2021: £100,805).

While the Trustees note the net deficit for the year, careful cost control and negotiation with donors to permit restricted grants to contribute towards core costs has allowed for the buildup of reserves in recent years which are able to cushion the deficit. The Board is confident that the Anglican Alliance is a going concern in view of these facts.

Core budget costs (including any staff costs which are paid from Restricted Funds) are of the order of £300,000 per year and over 90% of these costs are associated with employment of staff. The Trustees’ policy is to establish unrestricted reserves sufficient to cover three months of operating costs of around £75,000, as it is risky for Trustees and staff to enter into obligations and contracts where the obligations are not currently covered by free reserves.

Trustees’ Responsibilities in relation to the Financial Statements

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare the annual report and financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing financial statements giving a true and fair view, the Trustees should follow best practice and:

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

8

prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.

The Trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the charity, and which enable them to ascertain the financial position of the charity and ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. The Trustees are 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 not aware of any relevant audit information that has not been disclosed to the charity’s auditors. The Trustees have taken all the steps that ought to have been taken in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the charity’s auditors are aware of that information.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies’ subject to the small companies’ regime.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Anglican Alliance

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Anglican Alliance (‘the charitable company’) for the year ended 31 December 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard Applicable in the UK and Ireland’ (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs(UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the audit of financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Corporation in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

10

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees’ annual report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 8, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK) we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

11

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.

The objectives of our audit in respect of fraud, are; to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud; to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatement due to fraud, through designing and implementing appropriate responses to those assessed risks; and to respond appropriately to instances of fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit. However, the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both management and those charged with governance of the charitable company.

Our approach was as follows:

12

There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above. We are less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations that are not closely related to events and transactions reflected in the financial statements. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to any party other than the charitable company and charitable company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Anglican Alliance Notes to the Financial Statements for the year 31 December 2022

Note 13 Pension Commitments

The Anglican Alliance participates in the Pension Builder Scheme section of the Church Workers Pension Fund (CWPF) for lay staff. CWPF is administered by the Church of England Pensions Board, which holds the CWPF assets separately from those of the Employer and the other participating employers.

CWPF has two sections:

  1. the Defined Benefits Scheme

  2. the Pension Builder Scheme, which has two subsections;

  3. a. a deferred annuity section known as Pension Builder Classic, and, b. a cash balance section known as Pension Builder 2014.

Pension Builder Scheme

Both sections of the Pension Builder Scheme are classed as defined benefit schemes.

Pension Builder Classic provides a pension, accumulated from contributions paid and converted into a deferred annuity during employment based on terms set and reviewed by the Church of England Pensions Board from time to time. Discretionary increases may also be added, depending on investment returns and other factors.

Pension Builder 2014 is a cash balance scheme that provides a lump sum which members use to provide benefits at retirement. Pension contributions are recorded in an account for each member. Discretionary bonuses may be added before retirement, depending on investment returns and other factors. The account, plus any bonuses declared is payable, unreduced, from age 65.

There is no sub-division of assets between employers in each section of the Pension Builder Scheme.

The scheme is considered to be a multi-employer scheme as described in Section 28 of FRS 102. This is because it is not possible to attribute the Pension Builder Scheme’s assets and liabilities to specific employers and means that contributions are accounted for as if the Scheme were a defined contribution scheme. The pensions costs charged to the SoFA in the year are the contributions payable of £13,557 (2021: £13,010), of which a total of £0 (2021: £4,678) was outstanding at year end.

A valuation of the Pension Builder Scheme is carried out once every three years. The most recent valuation was carried out as at 31 December 2019. The next valuation is due as at 31 December 2022.

For the Pension Builder Classic section, the valuation revealed a deficit of £4.8m on the ongoing assumptions used. At the most recent annual review, the Board chose to grant a discretionary bonus of 10.1% following improvements in the funding position over 2022. There is no requirement for deficit payments at the current time.

For the Pension Builder 2014 section, the valuation revealed a surplus of £5.5m on the ongoing assumptions used. There is no requirement for deficit payments at the current time.

The legal structure of the scheme is such that if another employer fails, the Anglican Alliance could become responsible for paying a share of the failed employer’s pension liabilities.
