**Lifeway Church Trustees Annual Report** 

## **Grant Making Policy** 

Offerings and tithes are given on the basis that those given to are acknowledged to carry out the basic principles for which the charity exists. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The charity seeks to maintain adequate unrestricted funds to cover: 

- Working capital for 'ebbs and flows' of at least £500 

- Three months salary 

- Savings towards a future building purchase 

## **Child Protection Policy** 

The Trustees have drawn up a Child Protection Policy and its principles and measures are to be observed rigorously by all involved in the organisation. 

## **Review of Activities** 

The Church continues with outreach activities. We continue to use our YouTube live stream channel on Sunday Mornings for those who cannot attend Sunday mornings services. We continue to have our Wednesday night services via Facebook as another form of outreach. 

We have started the ‘Retain And Maintain Ministry’ as another form of outreach to retain (help meet the needs of people) and help maintain their walk with Christ. 

We continue to have our Ladies ‘Push Prayer’ meeting once a month via Zoom. 

Every Friday we continue with our ‘Prayer Connection’ prayer via Webex Conference call. 

## **Future Plans** 

We are currently and will continue to reach out to the homeless and families in need of food, clothing, appliances and other needs. 

We currently and will continue to collect tin food for our local food bank (& for the needs of those in the church and outside the church). 

We are still looking for our own building so that we might do this work on a greater scale. 

## **Going Concern** 

The Trustees have prepared financial projections, taking into consideration the current economic conditions and have, at the time of approving these accounts, a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the accounts.

**Lifeway Church Independent Examiners Report** 

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Lifeway Church** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Lifeway Church for the year ended 29 February 2024. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). 

I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I can confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

- the accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

- the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

- the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of financial statements set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the financial statements give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably.

Where the charity enters into a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease. 

Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to charity are classified as operating leases. 

Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the charity at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet date as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the charity's policy on borrowing costs. 

Assets held under finance leases are depreciated in the same way as owned assets. 

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis. 

## **Receipt of donated goods, facilities and services**
