## Main Activities 

Life Christian Centre is a Midlands based community church and operates from Beechdale Walsall. Its membership, however, stretches beyond this community to include the rest of the West Midlands. 

The Charity is run and guided by Reverend John Maunder, together with and support from other Trustees and a range of volunteer teams who oversee various aspects of the church's life and work. 

The main activity of Life Christian Centre is the development and naturing what God has given us and to be an increasingly effective centre for our local community, giving people of every age the opportunity to experience the love of God, in Jesus, through the Spirit for themselves. 

Our mission is outlined as follows: 

   - Advancement of the Christian Faith in accordance with the doctrines set out in article of faith and the worship of God in the county of West Midlands and elsewhere. 

   - Provide a place of prayer, teaching on Christian Values, encouragement and support for our members and members of the community. 

   - Relief of persons who are in conditions of need, hardship and distress or who are aged and sick. 

   - Engage in appropriate Christian outreach to those who do not consider themselves as Christians. 

   - To support the work of Christians around the world

## Achievements and Performance 

We all thought the dust had settled post the pandemic as the society opened up.  On reflection the year 2022/23 has largely remained turbulent. The Russia-Ukraine War, though far removed from us, it has had considerable impact on the church indirectly and the society at large. 

The war has triggered global inflation which to a great extend has affected the society and the church’s ability to carry out its charitable work and meet its commitment effectively. As reflected elsewhere in the report the Charity’s finances have remained stretched due to changes in the cost structures and members’ ability to make meaningful contributions. 

In the meantime, although the churches were now fully opened and accessible, it appears it has remained challenging to attain the pre Covid member attendance. Attendance has remained low, as people are now used to stay at home and preferred to venture out less. The pandemic, it seems has had permanent impact on social behaviour and how the charity members interact. We have to now accept that we ae now stuck with the social norms that came along with Covid-19. 

Our Bible Study and Prayer Meetings have mostly remained online – on Zoom Platform. Even though the intention of keeping this option was to encourage attendance, the participation has remained poor. 

In the year we have continued with the Sunday Services were being held every Sunday from 11 AM. 

We had very successful conference the course of the year which was well attended. 

We believe the Church remains a sanctuary, and a place that rekindles our hope in a broken world. 

## Trustee Remuneration 

No members of the Trustee Board received any remuneration or allowance in the year under review All work input carried out and benefiting the Charity has been done on a voluntary basis. 

## Financial Review 

Overall income received  in the period under review was **£29, 403** The increase was due to Gift Aid provision which had not been claimed in the previous year and paid out  in kind contributions which had not been considered in the previous years. 

The Sunday Service direct cash collections were very low in the period under consideration post Covid. This is a deviation from the norm in under normal circumstances would make up at least 18 percent of the total revenue. 

We also had no Special Projects Pledge funding another revenue income driver in the past Financial Years. There were no projects that were carried out in the financial year as we focused on rebuilding and getting membership back to normal attendance post the Covid 19 Period. 

The small amounts from Sunday contributions in this Financial Year have been combined with the usual voluntary contributions from members making this the main source of the Charity’s source of revenue contributing **56%** of the total revenue. 

The funds expanded in the period totalled **£32,800** with energy costs being the major contributor, resulting in a negative Reserve Fund movement of **-£3,428** .  There was a massive five fold   increase 

**5 |** P a g e L i f e  C h r i s t i a n  C e n t r e  A n n u a l  R e p o r t 2 0 2 3 



of  energy costs from the previous year **(£9,139 vs £1,413).** Going forward there is need to look into how we can minimise our energy costs, taking into consideration that we only make use of energy once in a week on Sundays for less than four hours. Analysis of the energy bills indicate that a large proportion of the energy charges emanate from standing charges which it seems we cannot do anything about.

## Reserves 

The trustees define the charity’s free reserves as unrestricted assets which are available to the charity and to be expended at the Trustees’ discretion in furtherance of any of the charity’s objectives, but which has not yet been spent, committed or designated. 

To meet our monthly critical expenses mainly the energy and rentals an average of £1,500 is required. The trustees confirm that the free reserves should be held at a minimum of £4,500 representing an average of three month’s monthly expenses. At the end of the year the available cash both savings and current account balance were £8,500 which we looks comfortable at the time of compiling this report. However, of concern if the current trend continues, in which we continue eating into our reserves, this may expose the Charity into financial risk and action need to be taken to reverse this trend. 

The reserves built from the previous years have helped us to pull through in the this very challenging period and the Charity looks forward for things to start improving.

Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the report and accounts in accordance with applicable law and regulations. Our constitution requires the Trustees to prepare accounts for each financial year. Under our constitution, the Trustees have elected to prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under our constitution the Trustees must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the Income or Expenditure of the Charity for that period. 

In preparing these accounts, the Trustees are required to: - 

- (1) select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently. 

- (2) make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and 

- (3) prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in business. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Charity's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Accounting Standards. 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.

## **Statement of the Accounting Preparation** 

Members have not required the Charity to obtain an audit, but have opted for an Independent Examination of the Accounts. Independent examination allows the trustees of smaller charities to opt for a simpler form of external scrutiny in place of an audit, and can be carried out by any person with the relevant ability and experience, except where the gross income exceeds £250,000, when only members of one of the bodies listed in the Charities Act (see section 4.1) can audit the accounts. 

The trustees acknowledge their responsibilities for complying with the requirements of the Act with respect to accounting records and the preparation of accounts. 

These accounts have been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to charitable organisations subject to the small companies' regime and in accordance with the provisions of FRS 102. 

Approved by the Board of Trustee on 22 December 2023

||nised as an expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution.|

Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, e.g. allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. **Grants with perfor-** Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific **mance conditions** level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output. **Grants payable without** Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity **performance condi-** to realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must **tions** be recognised. **Redundancy cost** The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period. **Deferred income** No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts.
