## **Music & Worship Foundation CIO** 

## **Registered Charity Number:  1175280** 

## **Trustees' Report for the Year Ended 31 March 2022** 

Principal Office:  8A Horley Close, Bexleyheath, Kent DA6 7HS 

Legal Structure:  Charitable Incorporated Organisation 

Governing Document:  Constitution of Music & Worship Foundation CIO (incorporated 20 October 2017) 

Trustees:-  Damian Herbert, Hannah Hodges, Ron Jones, Sylvia Kalisch, Andrew Mitchell, Mwidimi Ndosi, Rev. Eileen Osgood, Roger Peach. **See "Structure" below.** 

Chairman of Trustees:    Roger Peach Secretary to Trustees:   Andrew Mitchell Treasurer:                     Ron Jones 

## OBJECTIVES 

The objectives of the CIO ("MWF") are:- 

1 The advancement of the Christian religion through music, media and other art forms; 

2 To advance the education of the public in Christian worship and music. 

## STRUCTURE 

The aims of the CIO are advanced through the operations of MWF’s ministry Engage Worship. MWF employs Sam and Sara Hargreaves to lead this work, under the supervision of the Trustees. It also employs Gemma and Timo Scharnowski as team members.  The Trustees meet on average four times per year, and because of the Covid-19 pandemic three of the meetings were by video-call.  They also keep in contact with each other, and with the team, by email. 

Two new Trustees were appointed during the year: Mwidimi Ndosi on 14 October 2021, and Hannah Hodges on 24 February 2022. 

WORK AND ACTIVITIES OF THE CIO 

These have included:- 

- 1:- **Production of publications.** During this financial year Engage Worship produced Resurrection People, a resource consisting of a Church Service Pack with associated downloads and a Personal Devotions book. We produced more new songs for this than for any previous resource (eight, all with recordings and videos), and have received some great feedback, including: _**“We have just loved using Engage Worship's 'Resurrection People'. It has provided us with a fresh and creative way of exploring the practical implications of the resurrection of Jesus. We love the quality of the material and how it sparks ways of exploring this familiar story. For those of us involved in leading and preaching it provides us with fresh ideas, great visual material, and the gathering and sending prayers are just spot on.”**_ 

Earlier in the year (April 2021) we also published _Worship In The Woods._ This provides ten sessions of outdoor worship, which was very timely given the amount of churches who needed to meet outdoors during the second year of the pandemic. This was launched with two well-attended Zoom workshops 

Page 5 of 11 



- 2:Leading and participating in conferences, seminars and meetings. This year was something of a hybrid - some events did happen in-person, but others remained on Zoom or video. Gemma, Timo, Sam and Sara recorded three sets of sung worship for the London School of Theology _Summer School on Eco Theology_ , and this led to them visiting the college to deliver a day on this theme for students in October 2021. Timo and Sam led an online session at the Church of England _Digital Labs_ conference. We ran in-person _Whole Life Worship_ training for LICC hubs, Chester Diocese and the Salvation Army, and an _Engaging Everyone in Worship_ input for Methodists in Coventry. 

- 3:- **Resource the public for Christian worship through the engageworship.org website.** Our site continues to be a highly-used resource for church leaders and other places of worship. In the year we had 152,000 users visit the site, with 31,000 visiting our AREA 52 Lectionary page, and 24,000 attracted by our general ideas pages. 

We continued to add much-needed live worship videos that people could use in their services (including All-Age and Eco Worship themes, a Ukraine lament/prayer song and a Christmas Blessing song). Gemma created printable sheets for Easter and Pentecost. 

Feedback has included: “ _As a church warden of a small church without a minister your resources have been a God-send. They are thought-provoking, and inspiring, and our gatherings are enriched by them. We thank God for all you do.”_ and _“I regularly use Engage Worship resources and get great feedback from the congregation/gathering. I'd highly recommend it_ .“ 

- 4:- **Commitment to higher education contexts.** Sam Hargreaves has taught a London School of Theology module in songwriting, and tutored online courses in Theology of Worship (BA) and Issues in Contemporary Worship (MA). 

- 5:- **Evergreen.** Gemma and Timo Scharnowski were employed by MWF in February 2021 to help us reach younger worship leaders. In this financial year we have been developing a ministry to mentor and sustain young leaders which we are calling Evergreen (based on Psalm 1:3). We ran our first day retreat in October 2021 which attracted around 18 young leaders for gathered worship, encouragement and relationship-building. This is an exciting development for MWF and Engage Worship, and will continue to be a focus of our attention. 

In the ways stated above MWF CIO serves the public benefit. Our resources are downloaded and purchased in their thousands, and hundreds of people have attended seminars, workshops and services run by Engage Worship. These are primarily churches and church-goers, but our material is also benefiting schools, family groups and youth settings. 

## SOURCES OF FUNDING 

Apart from the sale of resources as detailed above, the CIO's income comes from donations from individuals and churches and from the charges made for visits by our employees. 

## POLICIES 

Public Benefit:  this is served by the activities described above.  The Trustees take into account the Charity Commission's guidance on Public Benefit in all relevant decisions. 

Reserves: the Trustees' policy is that if the level of reserves should fall below £10,000 immediate consideration would be given to reducing costs in whatever way possible, including curtailing the employees' hours of work. Part of the Reserves are retained against a requirement _in extremis_ to make redundancy payments. 

Conflict of Interest:  for all decisions taken involving a conflict of interest for any Trustee, the Trustee affected by the conflict is absent from the room and takes no part in the voting.

## **Notes to the Accounts** 

## General 

- A The Charity has no Endowment Funds. 

B No remuneration was paid to Trustees.  They were, however, recompensed for expenses incurred, and the details are given in an accompanying sheet.  A gift of £60.00 was made to the Accounts Examiner in payment of his invoice:  this gift was purchased by the Treasurer and included in his expenses, as authorised by the Chair of Trustees. 

- C The postage and packaging of materials bought online is handled by JM Supplies, a company owned by Mr Andrew Mitchell, one of the MWF Trustees. The income account "Dispatch Charges on Online Sales" is an element of the web price quoted for each commodity, to offset the cost of post and packing. The actual costs of postage and packing, "Dispatch Costs of Goods Sold", totalled £2,562.34, and were paid to JM Supplies on a monthly invoice basis. 

- D Continuing the practice initiated during the previous year, JM Supplies was also reimbursed with a sum of 10% of the value of sales, as a contribution towards the costs of realisation. Neither JM Supplies nor Mr Mitchell derive a profit from this arrangement. This features in the accounts as “Realisation Contribution”, and the total this year was £1,535.82. 

## Notes to individual SOFA items 

- 1 Fluctuations in sales figures reflect new items coming on-stream, usually resulting in a large volume of sales early in their availability;  other peaks can occur where the material is seasonal.  By the same token sales of older material show a natural decline. 

- 2 The large rise in Engage Fees Received reflects a recovery from the effect of the Covid19 restrictions on the previous year's activities. 

- 3 Drop reflects the receipt of two one-off grants in the previous year. 

- 4 "Professional fees received" refers to Sam Hargreaves' activities in tutoring and marking for London School of Theology, and in submitting articles to a Christian magazine covering youth work.  The drop reflects the time spent this year in producing new material - see Trustees' Report. 

- 5 The increase of sales of online materials has reduced costs in reprinting and purchasing stock. 

- 6 In the previous year no face-to-face meetings were held due to Covid, hence no travel expenses. 

- 7 

The CIO pays quarterly support payments to a charity in Albania, Selah WAM, which is engaged in similar work.  The amount donated reduces each year by agreement, as the Albanian enterprise becomes more self-supporting. The proper application of these payments is checked through receipt of regular quarterly reports from their Trustees. 

- 8 Fixed Assets are depreciated at an annual rate of 25% of the original purchase cost.

**Music & Worship Foundation CIO  :  Charity No. 1175280 Financial year ended 31 March 2022** 

**Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Music & Worship Foundation CIO on the Accounts for the above period** 

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 of the Charities Act 2011 ("the Charities Act") and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility:> to examine the accounts under Section 145 of the Charities Act, > to follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission (under Section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act), and > to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement My examination was carried out in accordance with 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 with those records.  It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the 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. 

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 Section 130 of the Charities Act; > to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities 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.
