Achlevements and perfomianeè Icontlnuedl
• Fundraising activltles and income generation
The church raises ils funds from members of the church. Income is also derived from the activities of the church
attended by members. While all are welcome to the aclivilie5 of the church it does not raise funds from the
general public, As a result the charity does not actively fundraise or engage anyone in that capacity and so does
not need to ctsmplywth policies aimed al protecting vulnerable members of the public.
• Invastment policy an(1 performance
No investments held.

• Going concorn
After making appropriate enquiries. the Trustees have a reasonable expectslion that the Charity has adequ81e
resources to continue in operats.onal existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt
the going concern basis in preparing the financial 51alemenls. Further details regarding the adoptson of the going
concern basis can be found in the a¢￿unting pollcies.
• Re$ebve5 pollcy
The Trustee$ consider it prudent lo have general cash reseNes equivalent to 13 weeks expenditure as an
objèctive. The 202412025 budget was Ilexed during the year in the expectatt.on that the 13 week cash resetve
threshold would not be breached and al the year end the cash reserves were in excess of 13 weeks expenditure.
The Trustees are confident thBI the level of donations and other income svill continue to support the actrvibes of
the charity.
• Princlpal Asks and uncertainti•s
The Trustee5 have developed a'risk map. to assess and manage risk which is reviewèd periodically, and where
appropriate policies and guidance are published. In addition. risk assessment5 are conducted on a rotstion81
basis on all key areas and acb"wties by a Risk Management Commrtiee constituted lo support the trustees in the
management of risk. The Tnjslees are satisfied that appropriate systems are in pla¢8 to manage. monitor and
mitigate the church's exposure to major risks.
As a result of the Covid pandemic additional risk assessments have been undertaken and specific policy
guidan￿ develryed lo mitigate this addibonal risk
In addition, Safeguarding or other incidents are rewrted to the trustees and appropriate referral made where
necessary. For this financial year there were no inadenls requiring escalation lo the Charty Commissioners.

AudltoTr' responslbllltles for the audit of the flnancial statements
We have been appointed as auditor under section 145 of the Charities Aet 2011 and report in accordance w7th
the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our c)bjectives are lo obtsin reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free
from malenal mis51atem8nt. whether due lo fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors, report that includes our
opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance wth ISA5 IUKI wll always delect a material misslalemenl 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.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instsnces of non-compliance with laws and regulatsons. We design procedures
in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, lo detect material misslalemenls in respect of irregularities,
induding fraud. The exienl ID which our proGedure5 are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is
detailed below..
W& obtsined an understanding of the logal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the charty and
detemiined that the m051 significant are those that relate to the repO￿llg frarnework in confomiity with the
requirements of the Charities Act 2011 and the relevant dired and indirect tax compliance regulations in the
United Kingdom.
We understood how the charity is coMpl￿n￿ with those frameworks by making enquirtes of management lo
understand how the tharily maintsins and communicates its policies and procedures in these areas and
corroborated this by reviewng supporting documentation and minutes of meeb.ngs of those charged wilh
govemance.
We assessed the susceptibility of Ihe charity's financlal slalements to material misslalemènt, including how fraud
might occur by considering the risk of management override to bg a fraud risk. In addition, we considered the
risk of management override by sampling from the entire population of journals, i¢Jenlifying specific transactions
which did not meet our expectations based on speclf(c criteria and investigated these to gain an under5tsnding
and then agree back lo source documentstion.
Based on this understanding we designed our audit Pro￿dureS lo identify noncompliance with such laws and
regulations. Our procedures involved Ven￿"n￿ that material transactions were recorded in ￿MplianCe writh
Financial Rep¢Jrting Standards in confomity with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
