Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 December 2020

The trustees present their report along with the financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 December 2020. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out on page 7 and comply with the company’s memorandum and articles of association.

Trustees

The following were the directors for the period under consideration.

Name Appointed Mr Kelvin Michael 2018 Pst Austin Ebhohimhen-Ben 2018 Ms Shade Olaloko 2018

The principal custodian of the charity is the Board of Trustees.

Appointment of trustees is governed by The Memorandum and Articles of Association. The Board of Trustees is authorized to appoint new trustees to fill vacancies arising through resignation or death of an existing trustee.

Investment Powers

The Memorandum and Articles of Association authorizes the trustees to make and hold investments using the general funds of the charity, but no such investments are presently held.

Constitution, objects and policies

To advance the Christian faith, for the benefit of the public in accordance with the statements of the bible which tells us to go and make disciples to every nation. We endeavour to do so by: the provision of a church and worship services; advancing the Christian faith in South East London, and neighboring areas, solely for the benefit of the public, through the holding of prayer meetings, bible study, producing and distributing flyers on the Christian faith to enlighten others about the faith and how to become a part of the Christian community. Contributing to the spiritual and moral education of children, young people and adults; contributing towards a better society for example by promoting social cohesion and sharing love in its truest form; carrying out, as a practical expression of religious beliefs, other activities such as financially providing for others who are not able to fend for themselves or need transport fares to get to worship services

Development, activities and achievements

The trustees consider that the performance of the charity this year has been satisfactory. During the year the charity gained some new beneficiaries and it is expected that the charity’s impact will continue to grow in the future.

The charity would not be able to operate without the continued support of a large number of willing support staff who give their services voluntarily and assist on a freelance basis.

Financial review

The charity’s fundraising activities continue to be successful, thanks mainly to the kind donations of concerned individuals. Office overheads were generally unchanged this year. Funds available are sufficient to permit the charity to continue in operation in the medium term.

Risk Management

The trustees actively review the major risk which the charity faces on a regular basis and believe that maintaining reserves at current levels, combined with an annual review of the controls over key financial systems, will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions. The trustees have also examined other operational and business risks faced by the Charity and confirm that they have established systems to mitigate the significant risks.

Future Developments

The trustees are confident that the charity will continue to grow in strength in the foreseeable future.

Report of the trustees for the year ended 31 December 2020 (cont’d)

Reserves policy

It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds at a level which equate to approximately 12 months unrestricted expenditure. This provides sufficient funds to cover management and administration and support costs. Unrestricted funds are maintained at least this level throughout the year.

Statement of trustees’ responsibilities

Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true fair view of the charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Approval

This report was approved by the trustees in November 2021 and signed on their behalf.

Basis of Independent examiner’s statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. 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, I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.

Independent examiner’s statement
