Spa View Community Church Trustees Annual Report

STATEMENT OF BELIEFS

We believe that the Bible (i.e. the Old and New Testaments excluding the Apocrypha) is the inspired Word of God, the infallible and all sufficient rule for faith and practice. We believe in the unity of the one true and living God who is eternal, self-existent ‘I am’ who has revealed Himself as one being in three persons – Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

We believe in the Virgin Conception, Sinless Life, Miraculous Ministry, Substitutionary Atoning Death, Bodily Resurrection, Triumphant Ascension and Abiding Intercession of the Lord Jesus Christ and His promise to return as the blessed hope set before all believers.

We believe in the fall of man who was created pure and upright but fell by voluntary transgression.

We believe in salvation through faith in the person of Jesus Christ. This experience, being an instantaneous and complete operation of the Holy Spirit upon initial faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, is known as new birth and his promised return as the blessed hope set before all believers.

We believe that water baptism (usually by immersion) is enjoined upon all who have really repented and have truly believed with all their hearts in Christ as Saviour and Lord, and that breaking of bread and drinking of wine in remembrance of Christ is enjoined upon all believers until the Lord returns.

We believe in the baptism in the Holy Spirit evidence by the continuing demonstration of the gifts of the Spirit indicated in 1 Corinthians 12:1-11.

We believe in holiness of life and conduct in obedience to the command of God as evidenced by an increasing demonstration of the fruit of the Spirit spoken of in Galatians 5:22-23.

We believe that deliverance from sickness by Divine Healing is provided for in the Atonement.

We believe in the bodily resurrection of all men, to everlasting conscious bliss for all who truly believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, but everlasting conscious punishment for all whose names are not written in the Book of Life.

We believe in the Gift Ministries which Christ has given to His Church according to Ephesians 4:10- 13 for the purpose of establishing and maturing individual congregations of God’s people, and their responsibility for appointing an initial eldership.

We believe in the function of eldership in plurality in the local congregations with the specific responsibilities of guarding and ruling the local flock subject to the fulfilment of the scriptural qualifications and qualities as established in the Bible.

Spa View Community Church Trustees Annual Report

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The objectives of the Church as set out in its Memorandum and Articles of Association are to advance the Christian faith and to engage in such charitable objectives that the trustees see fit, within the framework of the Christian faith.

In the opinion of the trustees the objectives and activities of the church are compliant with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 and guidance published by the Charity Commission regarding public benefit.

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. The Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The above report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime as set out in Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 and in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102).

PRINCIPAL FUNDING SOURCES

The church is primarily funded by the gifts and offerings of its members.

RESERVES POLICY

The trustees will keep a reserve fund in the deposit bank account sufficient to pay known liabilities due within one month plus a sum equivalent to approximately one month’s regular expenditure. This fund should only be used in cases of unusual need, to be authorised by trustees. The aim would be to replace these reserves within a period decided by trustees. In the exceptional cases where reserves fall below this level trustees will be notified and appropriate action taken.

RISK ASSESSMENT

The major risk to the church is that its income falls to the extent that payroll liabilities and running costs of the premises cannot be met. The trustees regularly review financial information at trustee meetings to ensure that income levels are sufficient to avoid such a situation and to act promptly if there are any indications of an impending downturn in income.

REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES IN THE YEAR AND TO DATE (INCLUDING FUTURE PLANS)

Introduction

During the financial year from October 2024 to September 2025, the church has continued to meet regularly for public worship and fellowship, both on Sundays and through midweek connect groups, held in person and online. Sunday morning teaching has continued to be live-streamed, ensuring accessibility for those unable to attend due to work commitments, illness, or other circumstances.

Communication within the church has been maintained using WhatsApp, while the church website continues to provide information regarding activities, services, and community engagement. The church has sustained its collaborative partnership with Hope Church at Halfway in the provision of a local foodbank. In addition, volunteer teams have continued to visit two local care homes, offering services and pastoral support.

This year, we have seen a significant increase in our work at Birley Spa. We have continued to provide a weekly board games club, offering children a safe and welcoming space to spend their lunchtime breaks.

Spa View Community Church Trustees Annual Report

In addition, we were pleased to deliver a series of lessons with Year 4 pupils exploring the concept of the Trinity. Alongside this, we continued our annual Easter and Christmas celebration services, during which children visited the church to learn more about the Christian faith and the significance of these important events in the Christian calendar.

The staff team has remained stable throughout the reporting period and continues to meet weekly to coordinate the operational and ministry activities of the church.

The financial position of the church has remained stable, supported by the regular and committed giving of its members. This has enabled the continuation of core ministries, as well as the undertaking of essential repairs and improvements to the church premises. Where appropriate, opportunities for external funding have also been pursued.

The trustees give thanks for the continued growth of the church, including the addition of new members during the year. Changes in the local demographic are increasingly reflected within the church congregation, contributing to a broader diversity within the church community. The church remains committed to its ongoing development and outreach within the local area.

Staffing

Chris Jeavons continues to serve as Senior Pastor, providing leadership to the church and working with the staff team, Company Directors, and Company Members to deliver the church’s vision.

Sally Watters continues in her role as Church Administrator and serves as a Company Member.

Amy Hitchmough continues in her role as Family and Community Worker, with responsibility for both children’s and youth ministries. She is supported by a paid sessional youth worker. The trustees acknowledge and express their appreciation for her continued commitment and contribution across these areas.

The trustees also recognise the ongoing contribution of Roger Perriss, who serves as Company Secretary and Member, leads on Charity Commission matters, and now also serves as a Director and Trustee. Chris Watson continues to serve as Company Member with responsibility for Buildings and Health & Safety.

The Pastoral Oversight Team continues to meet monthly to review church activities and ministry. The Directors meet quarterly with Company Members to address staff matters, financial oversight, operational administration, building maintenance, preparation for the Annual General Meeting (AGM), and to ensure compliance with charitable obligations.

Finance and Administration

Rebecca Clowes continues in her role as Director responsible for finance. Sally Watters, the Church Administrator, utilises Xero financial management software to maintain accurate records of the charity’s income and expenditure.

Churchsuite is now embedded across the organisation and is used for communication, event management, calendar coordination, rota management, and the maintenance of member records.

All administrative and financial policies are subject to regular review and are updated as required through Directors’ and Members’ meetings.

Spa View Community Church Trustees Annual Report

Media and Online Presence

Sunday teaching continues to be streamed via YouTube to ensure accessibility. Some midweek connect groups and team meetings continue to be conducted via online platforms such as Zoom or Google Meet.

The church website is maintained as a source of information regarding leadership, ministries, events, and vision. While updates are made periodically, further consistency in updating content has been identified as an area for improvement.

Health and Safety

Chris Watson continues to oversee Health & Safety, building maintenance, and lettings. Roger Perriss is responsible for monthly Health and Safety checks, including first aid supplies, emergency lighting, fire exits, and accident records. The Church Administrator is responsible for conducting weekly fire alarm tests.

Oversight and accountability are maintained through quarterly Directors’ and Members’ meetings, where Health and Safety remains a standing agenda item.

Building and Grounds

An ongoing action log is maintained to identify and prioritise required works, informing annual planning and associated capital expenditure.

Use of Building by External Organisations

The church premises continue to be hired by external organisations, providing both community benefit and an additional income stream. Current users include:

The church continues to explore opportunities to increase community use of the building while supporting its financial sustainability.

Connect Groups and Prayer Groups

Midweek connect groups and prayer groups continue to provide pastoral support, community engagement, and opportunities for outreach. These groups operate both in person and online, offering accessible entry points for those exploring the Christian faith.

Regular coffee mornings are also held, including collaboration with students from SHAPED.

Youth and Children’s Ministry

Children’s and youth ministries continue under the leadership of Amy Hitchmough, supported by a team of volunteers. Activities include Ark2 Baby and Toddler Group, Fusion (Years 4–8), weekly youth evenings, Sunday groups, and monthly Messy Church events.

Spa View Community Church Trustees Annual Report

Messy Church events continue to be well attended, with the Christmas Carol Service being a notable highlight.

Capacity constraints have been identified as an emerging issue, and options are currently under consideration by the Directors and Members.

Missions

The church continues to provide financial and pastoral support to associated ministries in China, Greece, and Mexico. The church also participates annually in the Sheffield-wide ARISE prayer initiative, in partnership with other local churches.

Summary

The church’s primary objectives remain the advancement of the Christian faith, the provision of pastoral care, and the support of individuals within the local community, particularly those experiencing isolation or hardship. The church seeks to address physical, emotional, and spiritual needs through its activities and outreach.

Strong working relationships continue between the Directors, Members, staff team, and volunteers, supporting a shared vision and effective governance.

Church membership remains stable with gradual growth, and a high level of engagement from members in supporting church activities.

Despite wider societal uncertainty, the church remains confident in its mission and committed to continued growth, outreach, and service within the community.

Spa View Community Church Notes to the Accounts

Expenditure

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates to write off each asset over its estimated useful life:

Fixtures,fittings & equipment 25% Reducing Balance

Freehold investment property

Investment properties are measured initially at cost and subsequently at fair value at each balance sheet date and are not depreciated. All gains or losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise.

Stocks

Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Donated items of stock are recognised at fair value,

which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay for the items on the open market.

Trade and other 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.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other shortterm highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts.

Spa View Community Church

Notes to the Accounts

Trade and other creditors

Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other creditors and provisions are recognised as 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.

Research and development

Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred.

Foreign currencies

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period.

Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are recorded at the rate of exchange on the date that the transaction occurred.

All exchange differences are considered in arriving at net income/expenditure.

Leased assets

Where the charity enters a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease.

Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to charity are classified as operating leases.

Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the charity at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet date as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the charity's policy on borrowing costs.

Assets held under finance leases are depreciated in the same way as owned assets.

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. If lease incentives are received to enter operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis.

Pension costs

The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the company has no further payments obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds.

Receipt of donated goods, facilities and services

All donated goods, facilities and services received are recognised within incoming resources and expenditure at an estimate of the value to the charity.
