The first half of the year will see us recapping our studies on our beliefs, actions and virtues. The prayer and fasting will focus on discipleship. We expect to begin our Bible study using the chronological Bible. Families and the community continue to need support and we will resume planning for our annual trip for families in the Summer of 2022.
Financial Review
For the year ended 31[st] August 2021, we are thankful to those who have continued to give throughout the year. Expenditure has been controlled, resulting in a surplus of £17k.

Trustees’ responsibilities in relation to the financial statements
Charities law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity at the end of the financial year and of its surplus or deficit for the financial year. In doing so the trustees are required to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
Make sound judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is appropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for maintaining proper 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 2006. The trustees are 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.
In accordance with charities law, as the charity trustees, we certify that:
-
so far as we are aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the company’s auditors are unaware; and
-
as the trustees of the charity we have taken all the steps that we ought to have taken in order to make ourselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the charity’s auditors are aware of that information.
DECLARATION
The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER TO THE TRUSTEES
Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Impact Family Centre.
I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31st August 2021, which are set out on pages 7 to 10.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s 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.
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 commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act
-
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 next statement.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act and
• to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act
have not been met or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached
