REPORT OF TRUSTEES

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

The Charity which also operates under the name Sure Foundation Assembly was constituted as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation Foundation and registered on 7 June 2016 with the Charity Commission in England and Wales with charity number 1167527.

APPOINTMENT OR ELLECTION OF TRUSTEES

Trustees are appointed or elected under the terms of the CIO constitution.

POLICIES ADOPTED FOR THE INDUCTION AND TRAINING OF NEW TRUSTEES

The induction process for newly appointed trustees comprises of an initial meeting with the Chair and other trustees, followed by short meetings with the Parish Pastor on the powers and responsibilities of the Trustees.

ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE AND DECISION MAKING

The charity is organised so that the Trustees meet regularly to manage its affairs. The Parish Pastor manages the day to day administration of the church with assistance from the ministers.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION

RCCG Sure Foundation Assembly is a parish of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) which has parishes all over the world. The parish's relationship with RCCG is governed by an 'Agreement for Common purposes'.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those relating to the operations and finances of the charity, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate our exposures to major risks. However consultation and review of our systems are regularly undertaken, in order to ensure they remain up to date and effective.

GRANT MAKING POLICY

The church supports visiting ministers of the gospel both within and outside the United kingdom. Support is also given to RCCG Central Office, World Evangelism Mission, Festival of Life and other RCCG programmes. The Church supports other Charities and Missionaries that shares its objects on advancement of Christian faith.

In addition to the above, and in accordance to the objective of the church, it also gives occasional and one-off welfare grant and support to congregational members who are in need or support for who are bereaved.

VOLUNTEERS

The church is grateful for the unstinting efforts of its volunteers who are involved in providing services for the charity. It is estimated that over 2340 hours are provided by volunteers during the year. If this is conservatively valued at £10.00 per hour, the volunteers effort will amount to over £23,400. Strategic training/development programmes were provided to the volunteers to enhance the quality of services they rendered to the Charity.

REPORT OF TRUSTEES

INVESTMENT POLICY

The trustees have decided that at present, funds should be retained in banks and building societies, and as far as possible in interest bearing accounts. Having considered the powers of the trustees, funds not immediately needed have been kept in a savings account to generate interest income.

RESERVES POLICY

The trustees' policy is to have unrestricted and uncommitted funds (free reserves) to cover 3 to 6 months of resources expended which equals roughly £24,000 - £48,000. They feel that this will enable current activities to continue if there is any significant drop in funding. It would obviously be necessary then to consider how the funding would be replaced or activities changed. The present free reserve is above the policy range but the trustees are continuing to seek additional funds to further boost the reserves.

PRINCIPAL FUNDING

Funding has been provided mainly through tithes and offerings by church members and through donations. Pledges are also taken for specific projects. The charity has maximised its incoming by accessing gift aid claim on donations made by eligible donors.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES

The activities of the church have centred on the spiritual growth of the congregation as well as the numeric growth of the church.

On average, there are over 100 congregants in the church every Sunday. This includes Adults and the young people. The church operates Hybrid Services, Physical in Church building on Sundays and special programmes while Mid-week services are held on Zoom. This have proved to be very effective Teachings are also streamed on You Tube for a wider outreach, and benefit of online viewers. also goes out live on You Tube and face book. In future the Church intend to go fully digital with her programmes.

Community Outreach

The Charity continues to reach out to her community through her community outreach programmes. During the year in review, we had Free Community Family Fun Day/Barbecue including giving out family used stuff e.g. clothing items to the beneficiaries in the community. Hampers were given out to beneficiaries at festive seasons in the community.

Growth

The commitment of the church members to the vision of RCCG Sure Foundation Assembly has allowed the church to maintain a vibrant and healthy environment for spiritual and natural growth. The Charity continued to enjoy tremendous growth in its physical and spiritual life during the year, and in the advancement of Christian faith in accordance with the doctrines set out in the Statement of faith contained in our Trust Deed.

REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES - continued

PLACE OF WORSHIP

The Charity recently secure a lease of a property as a place of worship. It is believed that with this move, the charity will be more stable and able to plan its programmes and deliver them effectively for the benefit of the beneficiaries.
