BIBLICAL COUNSELLING UK ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022
Purposes of the Charity
Biblical Counselling UK is committed to Christ-centred change, enabled by the Spirit, through the ministry of the Word, in the local church. Our vision is to serve the local church through:

-
The provision of the Certificate Course in Biblical Counselling in seven venues: Bath, Belfast, London, Edinburgh, Sheffield and Liverpool, and an online seminar venue

Launching a book in June 2021
It supported 14 individuals develop a biblical counselling ministry in their local churches through the Church-based Intern Scheme.
Structure
Biblical Counselling UK is a Charitable Incorporate charity number 1164965.
The Biblical Counselling movement began in the USA and is much more developed there than it is in organisations in the US. These are CCEF (The Christian Counseling and Educational Foundation) and the BCC (The Biblical Counseling Coalition). Our executive director, Steve Midgley, is a member of the board of CCEF and a Council Member of the BCC. Both of these roles are voluntary.
Public Benefit
Biblical Counselling UK has considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit and is committed to the following Objects:
-
The advancement of the Christian religion by the promotion of the understanding and practice of biblical counselling and establishing and carrying out ministries related thereto;
-
The relief of need, hardship, physical or mental distress among any persons without limitation;
-
In furtherance of the above Objects but not further or otherwise:
3
-
a. The support by donations, subscriptions or in any other manner anybody which is charitable in law and the objects of which include the advancement of the Christian religion or the relief of hardship or physical or emotional distress.
-
b. The support of Christians who are engaged full-time or part-time in Biblical counselling ministries.
Main achievements
During 2021-22, Biblical Counselling UK continued to deliver training in the principles and practice of biblical counselling through its Certificate Course in London, Edinburgh, Liverpool, Bath, Belfast and Sheffield, and via a new Online cohort. In total, 222 students enrolled in the autumn term, 182 in the spring term and 102 in the summer term.
Biblical Counselling UK was able to offer the one-week summer intensive in two venues: London (26 students), and Belfast (12 students); 38 students in total.
15 students b Biblical Counselling UK offered the Dynamics of Biblical Change for Leaders course in January 2022, with 70 students enrolled. 18 students enrolled in the follow-on course, Helping Relationships for Leaders .
Biblical Counselling UK provided speakers for training events for churches and on aspects of pastoral care at regional and national conference .
Eight Intern Scheme at the end of their second year and six interns completed their first year. The Scheme partners with local churches wishing to develop biblical counselling by providing support and mentoring. The fourteen interns received training through monthly seminars via conference call, three half day training sessions and regular meetings with their mentors and local supervisors. Four new Interns selected from a total of four applications from churches were accepted to join the programme in September 2022. Though applications were lower, we experienced a higher than normal frequency of churches exploring the Scheme for the September 2023 intake. Churches indicated they desired a year of normal ministry activities post-pandemic before taking on something new like the Intern Scheme.
The activities listed above have helped individuals to address difficulties in their own personal lives but have also equipped these individuals to bring help to others by providing counselling in a wide range of personal life struggles both in church settings and other voluntary organisations.
Through a richer understanding of counselling approaches churches have been strengthened in their community life and so been better able to provide support both to church members and the surrounding community.
Financial Review
Income
2021-22 has been a significant year in the development of Biblical Counselling UK. Conscious of the many opportunities the Lord was placing before us to equip local church leaders and members in pastoral care we embarked upon a period of strategic review and planning. This led to a reshaping of our staff team to create a new senior leadership team, and the recruitment of additional ministry and support staff towards the end of the year: a new Director of the Certificate Course, Head of Communications, Finance & Operations Administrator and Executive Assistant. Our Director of Training & Resources and Director of Finance & Development also increased their hours. Most
4
significantly, Steve Midgley (Executive Director), stepped down from his position as Vicar of Christ Church Cambridge to take up employment with Biblical Counselling UK so he can devote almost all his time to its leadership from 1 September 2022.
We do thank the Lord for the way the prayers and generosity of our Partners has made these appointments possible. We are especially thankful for a one-off donation of £200k via Stewardship and a 3-year grant of approximately £90k per annum from The Lauderdale Trust. This financial support has enabled us to bring about this step-change in Biblical Counselling ministry. It will also provide the resources to purchase the licenses for substantial parts of the Certificate Course material from the Christian Counselling Educational Foundation (CCEF), enabling us to update the material and adapt it to the UK context.
September 2021 also saw the beginning of a two-year family care research project into the support received by Christian parents of fostered and adopted children. Rachel Maclure was employed to undertake this research, having gained a unique insight into the challenges and joys faced by parents of care-experienced children in her previous role at the charity Home for Good. It is hoped further donations will be received in 2022-23 to cover the remaining term of her appointment enabling this valuable research to be completed.
For the reasons outlined above, our donation and grant income is significantly higher this year at £398k (2020-21: £109k). Due to a delay in filling the new posts, many of whom started in September 2022, the money is being held in reserve to be used over the coming year. It is anticipated the purchase of the licenses from CCEF will also happen in the coming year.
Regular giving through the Partners Scheme grew by 15% (2020-21: 14%). It is hoped the Partners Scheme will continue to encourage regular givers and that this donor base will steadily grow over the coming years.
Expenditure
We were please to hold our annual residential conference in March. This had not been held in the prior year due to COVID and accounts for the majority of the increase in the income and expenditure from our charitable activities.
During the year a £19k grant was made to Christ Church Cambridge to reflect the time spent by Steve Midgley directing the activities of Biblical Counselling UK. This grant also contributes to the costs incurred by the church in providing office facilities for Biblical Counselling UK. It is anticipated the grant will cease from September 2022 once Steve takes up employment with Biblical Counselling UK. Costs incurred by Christ Church Cambridge in providing office facilities will simply be invoiced.
Donation income has funded the Intern Scheme with grants made to seven churches to assist with their costs of having a biblical counselling Intern. The seven other churches who participated in the scheme were able fully to meet the costs associated with their Intern.
Reserves
The reserves that have accumulated at year-end will be used to fund the increased staff costs whilst a growing donor base is established and hopefully applications to grant-funding bodies are successful. The purchase of the Certificate Course licenses will also help us to achieve financial sustainability over the coming years as annual fees will no longer be paid to CCEF for these modules. A proportion of our capital is held back in line with our reserves policy.

Grant Making Policies
Church-based Intern Scheme seeks to assist churches who want to develop a biblical counselling approach to ministry. Where a local church has identified an individual with training and gifting in biblical counselling, this scheme provides a framework to support that development of their ministry.
All the grants and other assistance provided as part of the Internship Scheme are awarded on an objective basis in accordance with the criteria detailed in the application form and accompanying leaflet which is found on the Biblical Counselling UK website. This includes, but is not limited to, the applicant to develop a biblical counselling approach to ministry.
In the year under report, Biblical Counselling UK launched the David Powlison Memorial Grant scheme which, twice a year, offers a small (up to £2,500) study grant to an individual who has completed the certificate course, is active in biblical counselling ministry and who wishes to undertake advanced study in fields that will promote thought leadership within the UK. The first grant was awarded in April 2022.
Governance and Management
Trustees
From 1 September 2021 to the time at which these accounts were approved the following people served as Trustees of Biblical Counselling UK:
Mike Warren (Chair) Allan Beckett Katherine Cornes Joanna Jackson Sally Orwin Lee Fred Paton (Treasurer) Christine Robinson Roxana Stanciu Robert Mallet (Resigned 3 May 2022) Andrew Collins (Resigned 11 June 2022)

The accounts have been prepared using the accruals basis of accounting. The accounts present a true and fair view and the accounting policies adopted are those outlined below. No changes to accounting estimates have occurred in the reporting period and no material prior year errors have been identified.
The Trustees consider that the adoption of the going concern basis continues to be appropriate in light of:
-
the significant cash reserves; and,
-
the fact that the Certificate Course expenses are highly correlated with course income and are funded through advance payment by course participants.
The Trustees have considered the potential impact on the charity of the current global pandemic known as COVID 19. In the opinion of the Trustees there will be no material adverse effect on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.

There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.
Grants and donations

|---|---|---|---|---|
During the year the Lauderdale Trust kindly awarded a 3 year grant with the first instalment of £90,000 being paid during 2021 22. This grant is to help Biblical Counselling UK bring about a �step change�in ministry activities through the increase in senior staff time and administrative support. The appointment of new staff took place slightly later than anticipated with the majority of new posts commencing September 2022, hence a large proportion of this grant rolling forward into next financial year.
£20,330 in donations was generously given towards the salary of one of our staff members who was appointed for two years from 1 September 2021 to research into the support offered to Christian parents of fostered and adopted children. It is hoped further donations will be received in 2022 23 to cover the remaining term of their appointment enabling this valuable research to be completed.
