## **Trustees’ Report** 

## **For the year ended 31 October 2023** 

The trustees (who are also the Directors of the Company for the purposes of company law) are pleased to present their annual directors’ report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ending 31 October 2023 which are also prepared to meet the requirements for a directors’ report and accounts for Companies Act purposes. 

The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (“Charities SORP”) (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland; FRS 102) issued in October 2019. 

## **Structure, governance, and management** 

The Anglican Mission in England (‘AMiE’ or the ‘Mission’), was incorporated on 15 May 2014 and is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association.  Its legal status is that of a company limited by guarantee. It has no share capital and the liability of each member in the event of winding-up is limited to £1. The company became registered as a charity on 25 May 2014, with charity number 1158679. 

AMiE was recognised as a Convocation by Global Anglican Future Conference (GAFCON) in December 2020. A Convocation is another term for a Diocese-in-Formation. This healthy structure will enable fruitful mission. AMiE is part of the Anglican Network in Europe (ANiE), which was itself authorised as an Anglican structure in 2020 by the Archbishops of Gafcon. 

Following agreement from GAFCON, a resolution was passed by the company members in June 2023 to change AMiE’s status from a Convocation to a Diocese. The governing document was amended to reflect this change. 

## _**Board**_ 

AMiE is governed by its members who meet annually as a Synod. They in turn elect a Board, comprising trustees (voting members of the Board) and non-voting members.  Operational activities are delegated to the Executive Team, and a panel of bishops provides oversight and encouragement for the ministers in AMiE’s churches. 

Trustees retire by rotation every three years and may submit themselves for re-election. New or replacement trustees are appointed following regular review of the skills requirements on the Board. 

Trustee changes were as follows from 1 November 2022 to the signing of the accounts: Mr Stephen Davies Appointed 20 December 2022 

No trustee was remunerated for their services as a trustee during or subsequent to the year.  Out-of-pocket expenses may be claimed by all trustees when they are engaged on AMiE activities.

**Structure, governance, and management (continued …)** 

## _**Executive Team**_ 

The Executive Team comprises people who are appointed by the trustees to lead the activities of the Mission. These activities are Planting, Strengthening, Ministry, Membership and Operations. 

There are currently eight members of the Executive Team overseeing these five activity areas, including AMiE’s Operations Managers, which is the only directly employed role within the Mission. This role was filled during the year by Tom Hutton and Jo Bull. AMiE reimburses the employers of other members of the Executive Team for those Team members’ time spent on AMiE activities.  Out-of-pocket expenses may be claimed by all Executive Team members when they are engaged on Mission activities. 

Executive Team changes were as follows from 1 November 2022 to the signing of the accounts: Revd Rob Tearle Took on Planting Team Leader role 3 October 2023 

## **Objects** 

AMiE’s objects, as an Anglican mission, are specifically restricted to the advancement of the Christian faith for the benefit of the public in particular but not exclusively by: 

- strengthening church leaders and church congregations to respond effectively to Christ’s command to make disciples of all nations; 

- providing faithful, godly and servant-hearted leadership to God’s people in promoting and defending the Christian faith; 

- planting new churches that are established to further the Christian faith; 

- facilitating appointments for Christian ministers and ordinands and other trainees where needed; and 

- promoting unity and partnership in mission between churches and Christians in line with the above for the salvation of many and the glory of God. 

The Christian faith is defined in article 2 of the Articles of Association. 

In shaping the Mission’s objectives for the year and planning our activities, the trustees have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit.

## **Anglican Mission in England** 

## **Trustees' Report - continued For the year ended 31 October 2023** 

## **Overview of Activities** 

AMiE is a fellowship of faithful Anglican churches committed to gospel mission. It comprises people who are passionate about planting, strengthening and partnering for the salvation of many and the glory of God. 

AMiE is a mission society that seeks to promote gospel growth in areas covered by the Church of England (principally in England, but also in other parts of Europe) by supporting Anglican churches and individuals both within and outside present Church of England structures. 

AMiE Churches are congregations who have requested oversight for their church ministers from an AMiE bishop. AMiE Supporting Churches are those whose church ministers receive episcopal oversight from outside the AMiE network, but who support the Mission’s work through prayer and finance. 

## **Achievements in the year** 

Throughout the year, AMiE has continued to plant new churches and identify future church leaders. 

Since its incorporation the Mission’s stated goal has been to see 25 AMiE Churches by 2025, and 250 by 2050. Under God, these targets are being pursued by pioneering new churches, recruiting future leaders for ordination, and by welcoming existing Anglican churches in England to join AMiE. At 31 October 2023, the network included 25 AMiE Churches and 3 church plants. 

In March 2023, AMiE churches were asked to complete an Annual Partnership Form providing insights into the day to day running of the church along with data on church attendance. Another survey will be conducted in March 2024. 

In order to help grow this network of churches, as indicated above, the Executive Team includes individuals responsible for leading Planting, Ordination, Membership, Strengthening, Women’s Ministry and Operations. Assisted by a panel of AMiE bishops, who serve by overseeing and pastoring AMiE Church ministers, the Trustee Board is confident that this structure will provide appropriate support to the expanding network. 

In March 2023, AMiE held its annual conference. The theme of the conference was ‘Delight’ and it provided an invaluable opportunity for church ministers and those involved in leading churches to network together and be equipped for their ministries. The conference was also attended by several people who are interested in joining AMiE. They were able to meet with people and gain further information about the network and what membership entails. The next conference will take place in March 2024. 

This year AMiE were able to hold its second hybrid (in-person and online) Synod gathering where lay and clergy reps from all AMiE churches got together to make strategic decisions about how best to further AMiE’s charitable objects. It was a hugely encouraging day where attendees celebrated God’s grace and provision over the past year and looked forward to the future. 

One of the key resolutions made at Synod was decision to change AMiE’s status from a Convocation (Diocesein-Formation) to a Diocese. The reason for this change is that the term ‘Diocese’ is the globally recognised term for a fellowship of Anglican churches under the leadership of a bishop. Referring to AMiE as a Diocese will aid communications and more accurately reflects its identity. This change was supported by the wider network (Anglican Network in Europe) and GAFCON Global.

## **Plans for future years** 

AMiE will continue to fulfil its objects as described above, by God’s grace pursuing ongoing growth in the number of AMiE Churches and, specifically, planting churches and training gospel ministers. There are a number of people actively engaging with the Executive Team about the possibility of planting new AMiE Churches, getting ordained or bringing an existing local church into the AMiE network. 

This year has seen increased interest in and enquires to join AMiE. With this in mind, the Trustees are keen to have a clear strategy and targets in place in order to support the broad range of activities across AMiE and to secure the substantial funding which will be required. 

Centrally, AMiE will continue to support its local churches, for example by providing policies and advice on church planting, safeguarding, financial and HR matters. 

The trustees are satisfied that the Mission has been appropriately structured to support its current activities. 

## **Financial Review** 

The net increase in unrestricted funds in the year was £5,502 (2022: net decrease of £16,043), representing net income of £7,434 (2022: net expenditure of £18,618) and a transfer to restricted funds of 1,932 (2022: transfers from restricted funds of £2,575). 

At the year end, unrestricted fund reserves were £9,124 (2022: £3,622), and restricted fund reserves were £16,072 (2022: £16,850). 

Along with a number of individuals and trusts, during the year AMiE Churches and AMiE Supporting Churches were the main source of funds for the Mission’s ongoing activities.  As noted above, AMiE’s ambitious growth goals will require substantial funding. 

## **Reserves policy** 

AMiE has a policy to hold in its free reserves (defined as General Fund net current assets) within a range of one to three months’ budgeted General Fund expenditure. At 31 October 2023 this represented a range of £9,000 to £27,000.  Actual free reserves at 31 October 2023 were £9,124 (2022: £3,622), and therefore just within the target range. 

## **Small companies provision statement** 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions relating to small companies subject to the small companies’ regime within Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.

## **Independent Examiner’s report to the trustees of Anglican Mission in England (“the Company”)** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 October 2023. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity’s trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

**Anglican Mission in England** 

## **Notes to the accounts For the year ended 31 October 2023** 

## **1 Accounting Policies** 

## **(a) General** 

Anglican Mission in England is a charitable company in the United Kingdom limited by guarantee and has no share capital. In the event that the charity is wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity.  The 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)) (issued in October 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have taken advantage of the exemption to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows. 

Anglican Mission in England meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant notes to the accounts. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and are rounded to the nearest £. 

## **(b) Revenue recognition** 

Income is recognised when the organisation has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

Income received in advance of an event is deferred until that event takes place. 

## **(c) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 

Provisions for grants are made when the intention to make a grant has been communicated to the recipient but there is uncertainty as to the timing of the grant. 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred. 

## **(d) Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. 

## **(e) Trade debtors** 

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for services performed in the ordinary course of business. 

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. 

## **(f) Trade creditors** 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the charity does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities. 

Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

## **(g) Funds** 

Unrestricted funds are donations and other income receivable or generated for the objects of the organisation without further specified purpose and are available as general funds. 

Designated funds are funds set aside at the discretion of the trustees for a specific purpose. 

Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the funder. 

## **(h) Taxation** 

As a charity, Anglican Mission in England is exempt from tax on income and gains falling within the available tax exemptions to the extent that these are applied to its charitable objects. No tax charges have arisen in the Charity. 

## **(i) Going concern** 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.
