Main Activities and achievements
The Trust provides and maintains two Gospel Halls where religious meetin8s are held by the local
Brethren community. Details of the origins, teachings and way of life of the Brethren can be found on
their website - www.
mouthbrethrenchristianchurch.or
and in the schedules to the Trust Deed.
The Trust's main achievements this year have been to maintain the Gospel Halls for the continuing use
of the congregation and visitors. It has also encouraged works by the congregation, as described below.
It has also continued to progress the construction of a new meeting Hall at High Cross, Syresham. which
Is expected to be completed in early 2024. A bungalow adjacent to the Fox Lane Gospel Hall was
acquired in the year to facilitate the eventual sale of that Hall and site.
The Trustees had also established an Emergency Needs fund for the duration of the current pandemic
and any resultant economic downturn. This provided limited financial assistance by the way of grocery
vouchers to households. who have experienced a recent and significant decrease in income due to the
pandemic, such that it is likely to impact on the health andlor welfare of members of the household.
This fund has been discontinued during 202212023. as its purpose was considered fulfilled.
Meetin
Meetings normally held at the Gospel halls include the Lord's Supper (Communion), Gospel preachin8S,
Bible readings and Bible addresses. There is a structured weekly schedule of meetings and, depending
on the particular meeting. between 30 and 450 people normally attend these occasion5.
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 times of Gospel preaching5,
along with a telephone number for those seeking further information or help. Gospel tracts. which are
distributed by street preachers. also display this infomiation.
Bibles and an extensive range of other Christian reading material are on display at the main hall and
visitors are free to help themselves.
With the easing of the previous Coronavirus restrictions, the use of the Gospel Ha115 wa5 largely re5urned.
Subject to ongoing care as to the necessary safety consideration5.

el messa
e and the life of a Christian
The Gospel Ha115 are a base from which the regular congregation and othèrs who attend the meetin8S
are encouraged to spread the Christian Gospel, in word and deed.
Members of the congfegation normally participate in a programme of street preaching and Gospel tracts
are provided free of charge by the Charity to such preachers and to be handed out to interested
members of the public. Such preachings had been curtailed due to the Covid pandemic but were
restarted from 28 March 2023 and onward.
Members of the congregation have also supported a separate Charity, the Rapid Relief Team, and this
included serving 1,5CQ meals to Horton Hospital staff in June 2022, serving I,SW meals to the public at
Aylesbury Fire Station Open Day in September 2022, and providing 250 meals to emergency services,
students and staff at a Westcott Major incident-university of Buckingham in the same month. A full
Public Benefit and Outreach Report is attached.
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 livirbg a Christian

Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The
financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom
Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements=
give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affair5 as at 5 April 2023 and of its
incoming resources and application of resources. for the year then ended-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted
Accounting Practice- and
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charitie5 Act 2011.
Basls for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing IUKI IISAS IUKII and
applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors,
responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the
charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements
In the UK, including the FRC'S Ethical Standard. and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in
accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees, use of the going concern basis of
accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have perfomied. we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events
or conditions that, individually or collectively. may cast signifrcant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as
a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for
issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the
relevant sections of this report.

otherwise explicitly stated in our report. we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial
statements or our knowledge obtained in the avdit or otherwise appears to be materially mi5Stated. If we
identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine
whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselve5. If, based on the
work we have performed. we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information. we are
required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2023
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters Whe￿ the Charities IAccounts and Reports)
Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion..
the information given in the Report of the Trustees is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial
statements,. or
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns: or
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for ovr audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees, Responsibilities. the trustees are responsible for the
preparation of the financial statements which give o true and fair view, and for such internal control as the
trustees determine 15 necessary to enable the preparation of financial Statements that are free from material
misstatement. whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements. the trvstees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going
concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations,
or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed a5 auditors under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance
with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors
that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a hi8h level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that a
audit conducted in accordance with 15A5 IUKI will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if. individually or in the aggregate,
they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these
financial statements.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of deterting Irregularltles, Includlng fraud Is detalled
below:
We assessed the susceptibility of the ch3ritVs financial statement5 to material misstatement and how fraud
might occur. including through discussions with the trustees. discussions Wlthin our audit team planning
meeting, updating our record of internal controls and ensurinB these controls operated as intended. We
evaluated possible incentives and opportunities for ffaudulent manipulotion of the financial statements. We
identified laws and regulations that are of significance in the context of the charity by discussions with
trustees and updating our understanding of the sector in which the charity operates.
Laws and regulations of direct Significance in the context of the charity include the Charities Act 2011, the
Charities (Accounts and fleportsl Regulations 2(K18 and guidance issued by the Charity Commission for
England and Wales.

Page 8
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF BRACKLEY FOX LANE GOSPEL HALL TRUST
TH
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2023
Our approach was as follows:
We considered the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our audit procedures
on the related financial statement items including a review of financial statement disc105ures. We
reviewed the charity's records of breaches of laws and regulations, minutes of meetings and
correspondence with relevant authorities to identify F)Otential material misstatements arising. We
discussed the charity's policie5 and procedures for compliance with laws and regulations with members
of management responsible for compliance.
We enquired of management whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance with laws
and reEulation5 or knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud. We addressed the risk of fraud
through management override of controls by testing the appropriateness of journal entries and
identifying any significant transactions that were unusual or outside the normal course of business. We
assessed whetherjudgements made in making accounting estimates gave rise to a possible indication of
management bias. At the completion stage of the audit. the engagement partnerfs review included
ensuring that the team had approached their work with appropriate professional sceptlclsm and thus
the capacity to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the ftjrther removed non-
compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial
Statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, the risk of not detecting a material
misstatement due to fraud 15 higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud mav
involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations or through
collusion.
A further description of our responsibilitie5 for the audit of the financial statements Is located on the
Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms
part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.

# Brackley Fox Lane Gospel Hall Trust Public Benefit and Outreach 2022/23 



One of the Trust's principal activities that furthers its objects is providing a facility for the coordination of "outreach" work into the wider community. 

The Trust continues to maintain its outreach activities. This report includes some of the things we have been engaged in. 

Members of the Congregation, acting under the directions of the trustees and with their full and active encouragement, have continued with the "outreach" work which they have carried out for many years. 

Gospel tracts and literature available from the Gospel Hall 

The Trust maintains a display of gospel tracts, literature and Bibles in the foyer of its principal Gospel Hall and this fact is advertised on the Sign Board at the street entrance 

Street preaching's and tract distribution 

During 2020/21/22 we have been unable to maintain the long standing committal to the open air preaching due to Covid related restrictions. It is however our intentions to restart 

Contact and support 

Some members of our Congregation assisted the Rapid Relief Team charity in the following work: 

June 2022 - Horton Hospital – RRT served 1500 meals to Hospital staff 





Sept 2022 - Aylesbury Fire Station Open Day – RRT served 1500 meals to the public 


September 2022 - Westcott Major Incident – University of Buckingham. RRT provided 250 meals to emergency services, medical students and staff. 




## Upcoming RRT events 

- Supplying schools with Early Bird Learning Kits and RRT Breakfast Bars 

- Providing meals to Northants Fire Service when they are doing a intense 2 day training course. 

We are open to further suggestions from the congregation which we will review and then put forward for approval at one of our regular trustee meetings.
