ZION HOUSE INTERNATIONAL MINISTRY REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES
E YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Reserves Policy
It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the free reserves of the charity, at a level, which equates to approximately one months unrestricted expenditure. This provides sufficient funds to cover running and administration, and operational support costs. The Trustees consider that the reserve level at the end of the year of £1,390 adequate for the charity.
Risk Management
There are no risk factors to report as the charity has little or no liability because of its current set up. Place of worship is rented and apart from salaries, no other financial commitment is envisaged at this time.
Financial results for the year
The activities of the Charity resulted in a surplus of £206 for the year (2023/24, a loss of £59). This was mainly due to a combination of factors such as an increase in the provision of Pastoral care to members and the community at large, coupled with Charitable donations. The Trustees are committed to ensuring that Zion House International Ministry continues to meet all its financial liabilities in full in the year ahead (2025/26) and remain strongly as a going concern
