In a small way, the work of the charity commenced in 1946 as “Ossett and District Sunday School Camp”, reflecting the fact that it began with a handful of young people from a church in Ossett, West Yorkshire. As interest was shown by sister churches in the same part of the county the numbers increased. As the growth continued, it became clear that the work ought to become a registered charity with the Charity Commission. Accordingly, on 14 October 1983 a Trust known as Yorkshire Sunday School Camp Trust (registration number 515455) was formed. The charity then became a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) upon registration with the Charity Commission on 19 January 2016; the CIO is governed by a constitution dated 6[th] December 2015. Later, with the full authority of the Charity Commission, all assets and liabilities of former trust 515455) were transferred to Misterton Christian Centre Charitable Incorporated Organisation, and the old Trust wound up. The objective of the charity for the public benefit, is the advancement of Christian faith through evangelism in general. ## **Aims and objectives** . The objective of the Trust is to present the Christian gospel to children and young people through the organising of Camps. The largest of these is the Yorkshire Christian Camp and attracts around 300 - 370 people (including workers) each year. The Trust also arranges the smaller Focus Bible Camp for older young people, and allows the site to be used by other groups with the same aims and objectives. ## **Management and Administration** . 3 The Trust continues to be administered by trustees (see details below) who are all members of the CIO. All of the trustees are experienced in the work and have held office for several years; under the constitution some of the trustees are required to seek re-election every three years at an Annual General Meeting. The trustees give of their time freely and are joined in the work by many volunteers. The trustees and volunteers receive no recompense save that they covet the blessing of God on their efforts. The trustees appoint a Secretary and a Treasurer every year. Although the charity has a registered office address, correspondence and the like for the charity is through its contact, Mr Keith Clayton, whose address is: Mr Keith Clayton 108 Sheepwalk Lane Townville Castleford WF10 3QE As at 31 December 2021, the trustees were: Mr Geoffrey Carter Chairman Mr Keith Clayton Secretary and Treasurer Mr Donald Gray Mr Christopher Leason Mr Matthew Ward Mr Daniel Hall Mr Steven Smith ## **Covid-19** It is not unsurprising to record that the normal activities carried on at the Misterton site were again severely curtailed because of the Covid-19 pandemic. The organisation and preparation for the main Camp takes several months of planning and, given that booking takes place from January each year, it was impossible to predict what the situation would be in the August of 2021, and thus provide a safe environment free of Covid-19 . As a result, the main Camp was cancelled for the year. Two other groups, who did not require the same level of preparation, did use the site, however, although with reduced numbers. As a result of not being able to carry out many of the normal activities, the Trust was able to secure a Government “Start Up Grant” toward the loss of income. ## **Chairman’s Report – Misterton Site.** With the Covid-19 curtailing many of the normal activities at the Misterton site, a small band of volunteers continued work on further improvements at the site, principally complete refurbishing work on the pot washing facilities. These have been completely re-roofed and the plumbing and electrical installations renewed. This was in addition to the normal maintenance activities 4 ## **Chairman’s Report – Camping Activities** . As indicated earlier in this report, the normal camping activities have been curtailed by the Covid-19 pandemic. The deposits paid by a few people during 2019 (and carried over in anticipation of Camp in 2020) agreed that the monies paid should continue to be held as a deposit against a future Camp being organised. The majority, however, chose to allow such payments paid to be regarded as a gift. The continuing uncertainty surrounding gatherings also impacted the Focus weekend, normally held in November. Having held over the deposit from 2019 to 2020 the trustees the Bassenfell Manor facility required that either a full booking went ahead, or that a substantive part of the deposit be forfeited. There was great reluctance on the part of many individuals to commit to attending and it was therefore decided to cancel and forfeit part of the deposit. ## **Financial Matters** . Full details of the accounts are given in the accompanying Receipts and Payments Account, together with Payments Analysis. The Trust continues to be indebted to those supporters whose regular small donations have allowed essential costs to be met (e.g., utility costs). As in previous years this has also allowed for tax to be reclaimed, where the donor is a taxpayer, under the Gift Aid scheme. A one-off grant from the Government’s Covid-19 Start Up Support Scheme was also received. In addition to the above, there was also a large one-off donation following the closure of one previously supporting church. This donation came with a request that it be spent on improvements to the site, without being too specific. The trustees have decided to honour this request by improving the accommodation facilities. At the end of the year, the Trust had no outstanding debts or loans. 5 ## **MISTERTON CHRISTIAN CENTRE CIO - CHARITY NUMBER 1165226** ## **RECEIPTS AND PAYMENTS ACCOUNT - 1[ST] JANUARY 2020 TO 31[ST] DECEMBER 2021.** |**Receipts.**||||||| |---|---|---|---|---|---|---| |_General_||**2021**||||**_2020_**| |Regular Donations||£ 5,750||
