## **Lime Walk Gospel Hall Trust Report of the Trustees for the year ended 5 April 2023**
The Trustees present their report along with the financial statements of the Charity for the year ended 5 April 2023. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out on pages 10 and 11, and comply with the Trustee Deed and applicable law.
## **Structure, Governance and Management**
## **Governing document**
Lime Walk Gospel Hall Trust is an unincorporated trust constituted by a Deed of Trust dated 27 March 1992, amended 12 August 2005 and 8 August 2014, and was registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales on 2 January 2015.
## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees**
The Trustees who have served during the year and since the year end are set out on page 1. No Trustees received remuneration or expenses from the Charity in the year ended 5 April 2023 (2022: none).
The Trust operates five Gospel halls and Trustees are chosen from among the regular congregation of the halls. New Trustees are nominated by the existing Trustees or by the congregation and must be appointed by unanimous resolution of the congregation. New Trustees are selected according to their skills and experience and are expected to use both in furthering the objects of the Charity. Checks are made to ensure the Trustees’ eligibility to act and incoming Trustees are made aware of their responsibilities by the existing Trustees, who ensure that new Trustees read the Trust Deed and relevant Charity Commission guidance.
## **Wider network**
The Trustees maintain informal links with similar charities with a view to pooling experience considered useful in pursuing the objects of the Charity. The Charity works closely with Foxhall Gospel Hall Trust (FGHT) which has similar aims and objectives. Regular donations are made by Lime Walk Gospel Hall Trust to cover the maintenance and running expenses of FGHT.
## **Risk management**
The Trustees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the Charity faces and confirm that systems have been established to mitigate those risks.
## **Objectives and activities**
## **Objectives and aims**
The charitable purposes of the Charity are the advancement of the Christian religion for the public benefit, including by the carrying on of the service of God in accordance with the Old and New Testaments of the Holy Bible as followed by those Christians forming part of the world-wide fellowship known as the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church (the “Brethren”) and any other charitable purposes connected with Brethren. The core doctrine of the Brethren and proper practices in furtherance of certain aspects of doctrine are summarised in two schedules to the Trust Deed.
## **Public Benefit**
The Trustees confirm that they have complied with their duty under section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission’s general guidance to charities on public benefit. The detail of activities is included under the section ‘Main activities and achievements’.
## **Funding**
Funding is sought through gifts from the congregation and Gift Aid is claimed on eligible donations. Funding is sometimes received from other charitable trusts with complementary objectives.

## **Lime Walk Gospel Hall Trust Report of the Trustees for the year ended 5 April 2023**
## **Main activities and achievements**
The Trust provides and maintains five Gospel halls in Didcot, Wallingford and the surrounding area, where religious meetings are held by the local Brethren community. Details of the origins, teachings and way of life of the Brethren can be found on the website _www.plymouthbrethrenchristianchurch.org_ and in the schedules to the Trust Deed.
The Trust’s main achievement this year has been to continue to open the halls to the congregation and visitors and encouraging good works which benefit the wider community as detailed below.
During the year, members of our Congregation assisted the separate Rapid Relief Team charity in their work of supporting those in time of need. LWGHT personnel assisted with the delivery of family food boxes to Orchard Meadow Primary School. These food parcels are to support families who need additional care and are distributed along with Early Bird Learning Kits, Education Relief Boxes and SMARRT Breakfast Bars. They continue to be distributed to those most in need and they are very gratefully received.
There have also been other initiatives such as providing limited funds to support Ukrainian families who have been displaced and are living in Brightwell-cum-Sotwell and North Moreton. The Trust also provided free replacement defibrillator pads and Battery to Upton Village Hall, the Trust had previously provided a defibrillator for public use in this village amongst others.
Members of the congregation have also attended regular street preachings in Didcot and Wallingford to promote the spread of Christianity and distribute Christian literature.
The Trust has also continued to provide limited financial assistance by the way of grocery vouchers to households, who have experienced a recent and significant decrease in income due to the cost-of-living crisis, such that it is likely to impact on the health and/or welfare of members of the household. The Trust has appointed a Local Welfare Panel to manage the application process and to administer the vouchers to qualifying applicants.
## **Plans for Future Periods**
Now that all restrictions are lifted and the meeting halls are back in use, we have increased the hall maintenance programs to ensure that the facilities are kept in optimum condition. This means that running costs will be significantly increased together with the increased cost of energy. Despite this, the trustees feel that these increased costs are not significantly impacting the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern.
We continue to look for further sites and buildings that would be suitable for use as meeting halls, we have identified that we require further halls in the Wallingford and Harwell areas.
We are also planning a maintenance program to assist the parishes where we have meeting halls including litter picking, painting of public benches, maintenance of playground equipment and other necessary outreach work as agreed with the relevant parish councils. This will be carried out by members of the congregation to support the communities in which we live and worship.
## **Meetings**
Meetings held at the Gospel halls include the Lord's Supper (Communion), Gospel preachings, Bible readings and Bible addresses. There is a structured weekly schedule of meetings and, depending on the particular meeting, between 45 and 600 people normally attend these occasions.
The meetings are attended by the regular congregation and most are open to other properly disposed visitors. The notice board outside the Hall welcomes visitors and displays the times of Gospel preachings, along with a telephone number for those seeking further information or help. Gospel tracts, which are distributed by street preachers, also display this information.
Bibles and an extensive range of other Christian reading material are on display at the halls and visitors are free to help themselves.

## **Lime Walk Gospel Hall Trust Report of the Trustees for the year ended 5 April 2023**
## **Spreading the Gospel message**
The Gospel halls are a base from which the regular congregation, and others who attend the meetings, are encouraged to spread the Christian Gospel, in word and deed.
Members of the congregation participate in a programme of street preaching and Gospel tracts are provided free of charge by the Charity to such preachers to be handed out to interested members of the public. There were 56 scheduled street preachings during the year 2022 to 2023 with up to 12 members of the congregation included in each session. As mentioned above, these preachings took place in Didcotand Wallingford and a large number of gospel tracts were also distributed at each session. The preachings are carried out at regular times and locations so that interested members of the public know when to attend.
In addition to street preaching, when lockdowns are not in place, members of the congregation regularly volunteer to help in charitable activities and to assist local community needs as they arise. These activities are encouraged by the Trust.
## **The life of a Christian**
In carrying out this work, the congregation considers itself to be living out its faith in practice, as particularly exemplified in the following extract from the schedule to the Trust Deed on living a Christian life:
- 1 We seek and are encouraged to live exemplary lives in all our relationships with others in the wider community (including former Brethren), in accordance with the teachings of Holy Scripture (1 Tim. 2:2).
- 2 We regularly go out from our homes to preach on the streets, to distribute Christian literature and engage with the wider community (including former Brethren) in order to present eternal salvation to all men by faith in Jesus Christ. (2 Tim. 4:2).
- 3 We seek as members of the public to lead Christian lives as husbands and wives, parents, children, employers, employees and neighbours. (Col. 3:22-25, Col. 4:1).
- 4 The preservation and protection of the family unit is fundamental and children are prized as a blessing from God. (Psalm 127:3-5). The elderly are valued members of the community, for whom both their family and the wider community are expected to care.
- 5 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 is reasonable given our abilities and available resources. (Matt. 7:12, Matt. 22:39, Eph. 4:28).
## **Financial review**
In the year ended 5 April 2023, the Trust had a net deficit of £52,660, due to a combination of reduced voluntary income combined with higher costs, especially for lighting and heating. Total voluntary income received this year was £147,779 compared with £178,241 in the previous year.
All funds held were unrestricted funds.
## **Reserves policy**
The Trustees have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the Charity's needs, based on its size and the level of its financial commitments. The Trustees have decided to adopt a policy of maintaining sufficient reserves to cover day to day expenditure and any capital expenditure needs that may arise. The congregation is kept regularly informed as to particular needs for funds, and other relevant matters, and the Trustees aim to ensure that the Charity will be able to continue to fulfil its charitable objectives even if there is a temporary shortfall in income or unexpected expenditure, by raising a funds appeal to the congregation. Free reserves at 5 April 2023 were £181,335 (5 April 2022: £166,891).

## **Lime Walk Gospel Hall Trust Report of the Trustees for the year ended 5 April 2023**
## **Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities**
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales, the Charities Act 2011, Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations and the provisions of the Trust Deed require the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the Charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are required to
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations and the provisions of the Trust Deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
All transactions have been reviewed and approved by two trustees. Approved by the Trustees and signed on their behalf by:

## **Independent examiner's report To the Trustees of Lime Walk Gospel Hall Trust**
I report to the Charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 5 April 2023 which are set out on pages 7 to 14.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the Charity’s Trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). I report in respect of my examination of the Charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
- (1) accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act;
- (2) the accounts do not accord with those records; or
- (3) the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
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.

**Lime Walk Gospel Hall Trust Notes forming part of the financial statements for the year ended 5 April 2023**
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **{a}** _**General information and basis of preparation**_
Lime Walk Gospel Hall Trust is constituted by a Deed of Trust dated 27 March 1992, amended 12 August 2005 and 8 August 2014, and is registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales(2 January 2015). The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 1 of these financial statements. The principle activity of the Charity is to provide and maintain Gospel halls in Didcot, Wallingford and the surrounding area for the religious activities of Christians often referred toas ‘Brethren’.
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by 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 issued in October 2019, theFinancial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), theCharities Act 2011, and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
## **{b}** _**Funds Structure**_
Unrestricted income funds comprise those funds which the trustees are free to use for any purpose in furtherance of the charitable objects. Unrestricted funds may include designated funds where the Trustees, at their discretion, have created a fund for a specific purpose.
## **{c}** _**Income recognition**_
All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Collections are recognised upon receipt. Donations are recognised when the Trust has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the Charity and it is probable that those conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.
Grants are recognised at fair value when the charity has entitlement after any performance conditions have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. If entitlement is not met then these amounts are deferred.
No amount is included in the financial statements for volunteer time in line with the SORP (FRS 102).
## **{d}** _**Expenditure recognition**_
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amountof the obligation can be measured reliably.
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. All expenses including support costs and governance costs are allocated or apportioned to the applicable expenditure headings. For more information on this attribution refer to note {f} below.
## **{e}** _**Irrecoverable VAT**_
Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the expenditure heading for which it was incurred.
10
**Lime Walk Gospel Hall Trust Notes forming part of the financial statements for the year ended 5 April 2023**
## **1 Accounting policies (continued)**
## **{f}** _**Allocation of support and governance costs**_
All support costs have been attributed to charitable activities.
Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.
## **{g}** _**Fixed assets and depreciation**_
Tangible fixed assets are capitalised above a threshold of £2,500 per asset and are stated at cost (or deemed cost) less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset on a systematic basis over its expected useful life as follows:
Freehold land No depreciation Freehold buildings 2% straight line Plant & machinery 10% straight line Office equipment 25% reducing balance Assets under construction No depreciation
## **2 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.
