## Review of events of the year – 2024
1. The church continued to use digital technology as an option to reach both church members and the unchurched community. This included using the YouTube channel for showing sermons and Zoom for online meetings. There was also good use of the Coastlands website and Facebook pages.
2. The church continued to meet on Sunday mornings at the The Columbine Centre. Church members also met in small ‘Life Groups’ either in homes, the Coastlands Community Centre or on Zoom.
3. The church based “Busybees” Parents and Toddlers group continued to meet at the Coastlands Community Centre in High Street, Walton. Important contact continues to be made through the work to parents, children and other family members living in the local area.
4. The church premises at 34 Newgate Street continued to be rented out through a letting agent to a local care agency business. The rental income received was used to help fund church general activities.
5. Support of those involved in mission was shown by committing part of our general income towards Christian projects. This giving was directed through various channels of work as follows:
- (i) The Rainbow Trust / Go Go Trust - supporting orphaned children and their “nanny” carers in projects in South Africa.
- (ii) Open Doors – providing relief assistance worldwide Christians persecuted for their faith. (iii) Christian Mission and Relief work in India – this included support for a Christian pastor and his wife who work amongst some of the poorest communities in India. From this couple a project called the “Living Hope Centres” continued. This project aims to provide basic foods,
- 3 -
medicines and self-support schemes. The Centres also combined this relief work with proclaiming the Gospel.
A special gift received in December 2020 of £26,514 for the work of the “Living Hope Centres” has been treated as Restricted Funds and is held in a reserve bank account for distribution for this specific purpose when required. At the end of December 2024 there remained a balance of £13,626 unspent.
- (iv) The Garden Tomb – supporting the evangelistic work of The Garden Tomb in Jerusalem; a place where it is believed that Jesus may have been buried after his crucifixion.
## – Review of events of the year 2024 (continued)

19. A “Companion’s Café” continued to meet at the church centre. These were weekly meetings for lonely adults aged 55 or over. Refreshments and social activities were provided by a team of church volunteers. It also became a “Warm Hub” by providing a heated environment for those struggling with energy poverty.
20. Front and rear extensions to the Coastlands Community Centre started in May and were completed in September 2024. Funds from various sources had been raised for this building project in both 2023 and 2024.

## Trustee’s responsibilities
Under the Charities Act 2011, the Trustees are required to prepare statement of accounts for each financial year which gives a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity at the end of the financial year and of the incoming resources and application of resources in the year. In preparing the statement, the Trustees are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the statement of accounts;
- prepare financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue its operations.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity at that time and to enable the Trustees to ensure that any statement of account prepared by them complies with the regulations under the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Trust and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

# COASTLANDS COMMUNITY CHURCH INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF COASTLANDS COMMUNITY CHURCH
I have examined the accounts of Coastlands Community Church for the year ended 31 December 2024 which are set out on pages 9 to 18.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
- Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
* To follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under **section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
* To state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented by those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present "a true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
* to keep accounting records in accordance with s130 of the 2011 Act; and
* to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting *requirements of the 2011 Act
have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
