Objectives and Activities

The main objects of the charity are:

The main activity of the trust is the running of a Christian church in the Manchester area together with related community projects.

In planning the activities of the charity the trustees have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion.

The trusts activities of education and prevention or relief of poverty and the religious activities are available to people in the North of England and elsewhere.

Achievements and Performance

In accordance with its objectives, financial support was given to a number of projects involved in the relief of hardship and suffering, both in the UK and abroad, including Europe and Africa. Educational projects in the UK, Europe and Africa were also supported as have community transformation initiatives in Trafford, in Greater Manchester, and other parts of the UK. The CIO continues to work with seven other local churches including Life Church and partnering with Christians Against Poverty (registered charity 1097217) to provide debt counselling free of charge to local residents. COVID restrictions led us on-line working for both the church and Debt Centre. In future we expect to keep a hybrid on-line and in person mode of service delivery. We have secured funds to expand our work by opening a Job Club to help residents back into work. The CIO is the lead organisation and holds the finances for the centre. The primary source of income for the CIO is from donations.

ISAIAH 58 TRUST

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the year ended 31st March 2022

Financial Review

The total income for the year was £60,118 and total expenditure on charitable activities amounted to £51,920. The balance on General Funds at the year end was £507,024 and on designated funds £111,900 and on restricted £30,448.

Reserves Policy

The trustees have continued the policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity should be between 2 and 3 months of expenditure. The trustees consider that this should be £25,000 in general funds. The reserves are needed to meet the working capital requirement of the charity and the trustees are confident that at this level they would be able to continue the current activities of the charity in the event of a significant drop in funding. The present level of the reserves available to the charity are in excess of the desired amount. The trustees have continued to maintain the reserves at this level by monitoring income and expenditure on a monthly basis, and only making donations from surplus funds. Additional reserves of £8,500 are needed for the Debt Centre to continue to function for 3–4 months in case of loss of income. These are held in restricted funds.

Structure, Governance and Management

Governing Document

Isaiah 58 Trust is registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation with the Charity Commission. It was formed under a Trust Deed registered on 23rd December 2015.

Appointment of Trustees

The trustees keep the composition of the board under review and will seek to appoint additional members with appropriate skills, expertise and Christian values, should the need arise. Interested parties are given details of the background of the charitable company in order to make them aware of current activities.

ISAIAH 58 TRUST

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS for the year ended 31st March 2022

1. Accounting Policies

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

a) Basis of Preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the second edition of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.

Public Benefit Entity

The Isaiah 58 Trust meets the definition of a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

Going Concern

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern.

b) Income Recognition Policies

Items of income are recognised and included in the accounts when all of the following criteria are met:

Income received in advance of a specific performance or provision of other specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

Income from Government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. In respect of the furlough grant; all conditions, with respect to the eligible costs being claimed, need to be met.

c) Donated Services and Facilities

In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) the general time of volunteers is not recognised in the accounts.

ISAIAH 58 TRUST

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

for the year ended 31st March 2022 (continued)

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

g) Tangible Fixed Assets

Individual fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on a straight line basis as follows:

Asset Annual Category Rate Equipment (costing over £1,000) 25% per annum Equipment (costing less than £1,000) Written off in year of acquisition

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amounts due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid after taking account of any trade discounts due.

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the Charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

The Charity operates a defined contribution scheme, the assets of which are held outside the Charity. The contributions by the Charity in the year are detailed in note 7.

  1. Legal Status of the Charity

Isaiah 58 Trust is a registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation and was formed under a Trust Deed registered on 23rd December 2015.

General fund The 'free reserves' after allowing for all designated funds. Buildings Fund Loan In prior year's £130,000 of the building fund was lent to LifeChurch Manchester and formed part of the £550,000 loan (see above). The £130,000 has therefore been transferred from the building Fund to the Building Fund Loan and is held in the form of a loan to LifeChurch Manchester. In previous years £20,000 was repaid on this loan and therefore a corresponding £20,000 was released back to the general reserves.
