AUSTELL GOSPEL TRUST REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2024 TM coKnNUED readin the Gos el messa e and the life of a Christian Continued The preservation and protection of the family unit is fundamental and children are prized 35 a blessing from God. (Psalm 127.3-5). The elderly are valued members of the community, for whom both theirfamily and the wider community are expected to care. Holy Scripture commands us to be good neighbours to others, and deal with all other people (including former Brethren} openly, honestly and fairly and consistent with these principles, we should give our time, talents and money to assist those in need in the wider community, in so far as reasonable given our abilitie5 and our available resources. (Matt 7.12, Matt 22.39, Eph 4.28). Volunteers St. Austell Gospel Trust relies on volunteers to carry out the management, administration and, where appropriate, general maintenance work. The Trust has no paid staff or paid Trustees. Fundln Funding is sought through gifts and donations from the congregation. Grants are sometimes received from other charitable trusts with complementary objectives. Gift aid is also claimed on relevant gifts. Financial review Financial osition In the Year ended 5 April 2024, the Trust had a surplus amounting to £28,772 of Incoming Resources against Resources Expended (after Depreciation charged of £91,687). Total voluntary Income received this Year was £178,309 compared to £116,769 in the Year to 5 April 2023. Monies held on Bank Accounts at the year end totalled £400,008. All Funds held were Unrestricted Funds. th th Reserves The Trustees have considered the level of reserves theywish to retain, appropriate to the charity's needs. This 15 based on the charity's size and the level of financial commitments. The Trustees have a programme of raising further funds by way of donations and collections, and if necessary loans, in order to fund intended projects, and to facilitate repayment of existing lending. The congregation is kept regularly informed of needs accordingly, which can be raised on appeal. Free reserves at the year end were £375,142. The level of Reserves heSd is in view of further Local Hall acquisitions as referred to under the next heading. Plans for Future Periods The Trust plans to continue 311 the current activitie5. At the Par Moor Road site a section of land is to be sold off for £20,000, in the near future. The Trustees have been actively looking for opportunities to purchase a propertyor land for further Local Hall use, and have an offer accepted to acquire a propety for £440,000 for adaptation for such purpose subject to planning permission and other approvals. Also, the construction of a permanent local Meeting Hall is envisaged on Land at Tre-wyn, Treverbyn Road, St. Austell, in the longer term. In the longer term, the Hall at Robartes Place, St. Austell may also be considered for sale. Despite the increased cost of energy, the Trustees feel that these increased costs are not significantly impacting on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern.
