The Trustees present their annual report for the year ended 31 August 2022
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accoun.ng policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity’s governing document, the Companies acts and the statement of recommended prac.ce “accoun.ng and repor.ng by Chari.es”.
## **Structure Governance and Management**
The Charity was established as a Charitable Incorporated Organisa.on (CIO) on 1 September 2016 being a successor to a charity of the same name registered by the Charity Commission on 29 October 1993. Under the cons.tu.on the power to appoint Trustees, of which there shall be at least three, is vested in the exis.ng Trustees.
The trustees who served during the year were:
Nick Wright Revd Graeme Ross Gareth Mitchell (appointed 5 10 2021) Lesley Walder Revd Geoff Felton (re.red 5 10 2021)
## **Summary of CIO Objec8ves**
The objects of the CIO are for the public benefit and are carried out in accordance with Chris.an principles and as an expression of Chris.an faith and without dis.nc.on of race, sex, poli.cal, religious or other opinion and are restricted to the following:
• To advance the educa.on of the public, par.cularly but not exclusively children and young people, through the provision of personal development courses, teaching resources and ac.vi.es that develop their physical, mental, spiritual and moral capabili.es.
• To provide relief primarily to children and young people in need by reason of mental or emo.onal distress, hardship or suffering, in par.cular by the provision of advice, guidance and support.
• To advance the Chris.an religion by helping members of the public grow in their understanding of the Chris.an faith and values.
During the year under review this has been carried out by receiving and using dona.ons, and offering services and training to schools churches, ins.tu.ons and individuals, mainly in the Colchester area.
The Trustees are sa.sfied with the overall performance of the trust.
## **Public benefit**
The Trustees have had regard to the public benefit general guidance issued by the Charity Commission. They believe that the descrip.on of the Charity's ac.vi.es in this annual report evidences that those ac.vi.es carry out the Charity's aims for the public benefit.
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are sa.sfied that systems are in place to mi.gate exposure to the major risks.
## **Reserves policy.**
The reserves of the trust are maintained at a level which will support the con.nued ac.vi.es of the trust for a minimum of three months.
## **Administra8on**
The trustees review all salaries each year. No employee’s remunera.on is above £60,000 pa.
On behalf of the Trustees. Gareth Mitchell

Independent Examiner's report to the Trustees of North East Essex Chris.an Youth Outreach
I report on the accounts of the trust for the year ended 31st August, which are set out on pages 6 and 7
## Respec.ve responsibili.es of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the prepara.on of the accounts; you consider that the audit requirement of the Chari.es Act does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts and, on the basis of procedures specified in the General Direc.ons given by the Charity Commissioners, whether par.cular maYers have come to my aYen.on.
## Basis of independent examiner's report
My examina.on was carried out in accordance with the General Direc.ons given by the Charity Commissioners. An examina.on includes a review of the accoun.ng records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes considera.on of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explana.ons from you as trustees concerning any such maYers. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
## Independent examiner's statement
In connec.on with my examina.on, no maYer has come to my aYen.on:
- (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
to keep accoun.ng records in accordance with the Chari.es Act; and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accoun.ng records and to comply with the accoun.ng requirements of the Act
have not been met; or
- (2) to which, in my opinion, aYen.on should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached
