TRUSTEES, REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2023
Charitable Objects
The objects of the church are
11 The advancement of the Christian faith in accordance with the basis of faith primarily but
not exclusively within Southampton and the adjacent areas.
21 Such other charitable purposes as shall, in the opinion of the charity trustees, facilitste the
work of the church, provided that such purposes must first be approved by a resolution of the
partners of the church and must be carried out in a manner con515tent with the basis of faith.
Structure, Governance and Management
The Church as a legal entity is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation. affiliated to the
Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches IFIECI. It is governed by a Constitution dated
4 November 2015.
Registered Charity status was granted on 18 November 2015 under Registration Number
1164459.
The Charity is also Corporate Trustee for Freemantle Evangelical Church through a Pre-merger
Vesting Declaration signed 7 May 2020.
The Charity is governed by a board ofTrustees who also constitute the members of the Charity
and the leadership of the Church. They meet regularly (normally fortnightlyl to set policy and
review the activities of the Church, and their decisions are subject to the scrutiny of the
members of the Church body Inormally twice yearly) in accordance with 'Church Life and
Conduct,, a document which sets out the practical workings of the Church.
Significant financial decisions are taken with the approval of the members of the Church body
through a formal vote.
Trustees are appointed by existing trustees where they have satisfied themselves of the need
of further trustees and the qualificatioris
spiritual and otherwise
of the person proposed
for the role, through consultstion with the Church body as specified in 'Church Life and
Conduct,.
All trustees served without remuneration in their capacity as Trustees. Those Trustees who are
Pastors receive remuneration in that capacity at levels determined by non-Pastor Trustees, as
well as
in some cases
rent payments in connection with the Church Manses at levels
determined by the non-Pastor Trustees, meeting separately, at or below the appropriate
market levels for the relevant property. The Pastors themselves do not participate in any
determination of the remuneration they receive. No other Trustees have a beneficial interest
in the Charity.
Review of Activities
When planning and reviewing the objectives of the activities of the Church, due consideration
has been given to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit and, in
particular, the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. In particular, the
church sets out to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our church in their
local communities.

The Church is committed to reaching. teaching. discipling and training Christians to carry out
Gospel ministry in Southampton and further afield. The Church welcomes members and
attendee5 from all backgrounds and actively seeks to invite members of both the Church and
the local community to benefit from its ministries.
The ministries of the Church are overseen by its leadership, and are carried forward both by
the Church stsff and by the extensive involvement of over 100 volunteers drawn from Church
members and other regular attendees. This pattern is seen in all areas of the life of the Church.
Through the year, the Church held a series of weekend and midweek meetings and activities
in Southampton, and in addition provided financial support and pastoral care to individuals and
also supported other organisations involved in Christian mission and training.
Activities included student groups meeting on Sundays, reading groups, retreats, conferences,
small groups and individual meetings. International students were taught about English culture
and the Christian faith. English language lessons were provided free of charge to those recently
arrived in the UK, often connected with the neighbouring university.
The children's and families, work also continued to develop. As well as Sunday activities for
children and young people, special events for members of the local community were held. A
weekly Toddlers group was held for local parentslcarers and their children.
A number of other small groups met to teach enquirers about the Christian faith, and to nurture
those who are already committed to the faith. These included group5 for women lat which a
crèche is provided), a network of groups for those in their 20s, a youth group, other groups
with more general membership and regular'Partnership Courses, for those exploring becoming
a member of the Church.
A community library was operated by the charity in cooperation with Southampton City
Council and the Burgess Road Library Management Team.
There is a strong training ethos, and opportunities are provided for self-funded, full-time
volunteers, generally known as 'Ministry Trainees,, to learn about Christian ministry in the
context of the church. Other volunteers are given training in various areas, including music.
children's work, student work, group leadership. safeguarding and general Christian ministry.
Some of this is provided in-house., other elements are achieved through attendance at
conferences and training courses further afield.
The Church used 3 number of venues to host their various activities. However. most activities
took place in a community library and a secondary school in Southampton.
Finance
Receipts. outgoings and balances are as shown in the statement of financial activities and
balance sheet appended.
The Chariws funding principally came from gifts and donations made by members of the
congregation together with associated Gift Aid. In addition, some funds came in the form of
grants from external bodies.
A reserves policy exists whereby - in normal circumstances - cash reserves should be retained
amounting to 3 months basic operating costs (such costs being estimated at a nominal 80% of
the full current-year charity budget. In the 2023 financial year this target was again met.
The establishment of the new CIO (Trinity Church Salisbury, no. 11994941 precipitated a
period of transition in which the two charities shared elements of income, expenditure and
liability. The transition was completed at the end of 2023.

Responsibilities of the Trustees
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 requires the Trustees to prepare financial
statements for each f inancial year which give a true and fair view of the stste of affairs of the
Charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the Charity for that
period. In preparing the financial ststements the Trustees are required to-
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently-,
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP.
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent-,
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed. subject to any
material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
prepare the f inanci31 ststements on 3 going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to
assume that the Charity will continue in operation.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with
reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure
that the f inancial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity IAccounts and

information included on the charity's websltes. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing
the preparation and di55emination of financial ststements may differ from legislation in other
jurisdictions.
