The Trustees of Trinity Imethodist / United Reformed) Church (Trinity'l present their Annual Report for the year ended 31 August 2023. l. Objectlves and artivities As a single congregation Local Ecumenical Partnership, Trinity's objective is to advance the Christian faith in the community, in accordance with the practices of the Methodist and United Reformed Church I'URC'I denominations. The Trustee5 takes their responsibilities to the Charity Commission seriously and follow their guidelines concerning public benefit in relatiOTJ to charitable objectives. To this end we bear witness to God's love for his people in Golders Green, either independently, or together with other churches and faith communities. To achieve our objective, Trinity engages in a range of activities, including worshiping God through prayer, song and other act5 of worship. It also organises and resources regular public act5 of worship that are open to Trinity's members and non-members alike and promotes the teaching of the Christian faith through sermons, courses and small groups as well as staging other events and services. Other activities include mission and evangelism, pastoral work includin8 VlSltin8 the sick and bereaved, provision of facilities with a Christian ethos for the local community, including but not restricted to the elderly, the youn8 and other groups with special needs. Trinity also provides chaplaincy services to local care homes and other institutions as appropriate as well as supporting other charities in the UK and overseas. Whenever possible, Trinity supports both inter-denominational and inter-faith work engaging in dialogue to promote harmony and understanding between diverse groups in our Golders Green community. 2. Achlevements and Performance During 2022-23 the regular pattern of Sunday worship and other occasional activities has been maintained. The church has been fortunate to have a very gifted organist, whose skills enhance our worship, and members whose facility with technology enables our services to be streamed to people unable to attend in person. The pastoral team has continued to offer care to the church community, which includes a signif icant proportion of people who have not returned to on-site activities since the Covid-19 pandemic. The Filipino Fellowship has continued to meet each Sunday afternoon, and to offer musical contributions to morning worship once each month. The minister is an active participant in Churches Together in Golders Green and District. As well as hosting a variety of community events, it was good to welcome a group from Wessex Garden Primary School to visit the church and to learn about our faith and activities. 3.1 Flnanclal Performance for the year The improvement in financial performance sinte the end of the Covid 19 pandemlc contlnued with Trinity'5 surplus of £25,954 significantly above last year's £5,225. The results were explained by markedly increased income coupled with slightly lower expenses. Income I£101,3041 was 18% above last year 12022.. £85,9531,. boosted by higher inflows from trading activities1£81,8341 which were up 27% on the prior year12022'. £64,204) underpinned by hall renta151£60,4391 which improved by 39%12022: £43,5101. Expenditure for the year1£75,3501 decreased by 7%12022: £80,728) as lower office expenses1£14,158: 2022: £22,409), mainly utilities, were only partially offset by higher building maintenance within the property costs category12023: E26,248- 2022.. £21,582). Total reserves balances stood at £5,652,047 12022.. £5,626,093.) comprising unrestricted reserves of £5,637,33712022'. 5,612,333.1 and restricted funds of £14,71012022'. £13,760). The unrestricted funds were classified into liquid assets of £127, 155 12022: £96,459.) of which £43,461 were free reserves 12022.. £12,765) and £83,694 designated for building repairs. Total property assets £5,52 1,73112022: £5,529,036) had unrestricted and restricted components of £5,510,18212022'. £5,515,8741 and £11,54912022'. £13,162) respectively. 'Resiated to reflect the reclassiflcatlon of 3 provlslon bè1ance to a deslgnated fund.

3.2 Reserves policy Trinity has a free reserves policy based on ensuring that unrestricted funds cover six to nine month's expenditure. This was met as free reserves of £43,461 12022: £12,7651 were estimated to provide coverage of about 6.3 months. 3.3 Going Concern To the best of their knowledge and belief, the Trustees confirm that there are no material uncertainties that would call into question Trinity's financial viability for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these accounts. 3.4 Rlsks and Uncertainties With the consolidation in Trlnity's financial position, there are early signs that some of the risks and uncertainties surrounding income are abating, with receipts from hall and room letting in particular exceeding pre-pandemic levels. Church attendance on the other hand is yet to fully recover and as a result, offertory takings may remain depressed for some time and adversely impact income. On the expenditure side, it is noteworthy that Costs were contained within last Veals level and with recent easlng in the inflation rate, the risk of significant cost overruns may be receding. However, whilst rates remain comparatively high, this will pose on8oin8 challenges for cost containment in major components of expenditure. 4. Strurture, governance and management Trinity was established by the amalgamation of Golders Green Methodist Church and St Ninian's URC on 30 September 1979. As a Local Ecumenical Partnership ILEPI, it is governed by its constitution adopted on 7 July 2013 and is part of the Barnet & Queensbury Methodist Circuit IBQMCI and Thames North Synod ITN51 of the URC.

However, the beneficial ownership of the Manse is shared between BQMC and Trinity in the ratio of 75'A and 25'A respectively with BQMC acting as the Managing Trustees.

Notes to the Accounts contlnued f) Tanglble Assets Tangible fixed assets are capitalised if their useful life extend5 beyond one year, with a minimum cost of at least £1,000. With the exception tsf the Trinity'5 buildings, they are valued at cost or a reasonable value on receipt. Where cost is not available, the Trustees employ a reasonable estimate of ihe value of the a55et. In the case of the freehold land and building, the Trustees on first time transition to Charities SORP FRS 102 took advantage of the 'deemed cost, option u5in8 the insured value as the methodology to determine cost. The Charitie5 SORP also requires the freèhold land to be separately identified and valued. The Trustees have used a ratio of 90.'10 in apportioning a value between buildings and freehold land. gl Depreclatlon Tangible fixed a55et5 are depreciated on a strai8ht-line basis to their estimated residual valuès over their expected useful lives with the expense charged to the relevant SOFA heading. However. no depreciatSon is charged on land and buildings because the Trustees consider their current deemed value to be not less than their value at the end of their useful life.
