## **BRISTOL CCRC TRUST** 

## **Trustee’s annual report for the year ending 31 December 2022** 

The Board of Trustees present their report and accounts for Bristol CCRC Trust for the period ending 31 December 2022. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing documents** 

Bristol CCRC Trust was established under a Memorandum of Association that established its objects and powers and is governed under its Articles of Association. Members of the charitable company guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £10 to the assets of the charitable company in the event of winding up. 

## **Structure** 

The Board of Trustees is responsible for the governance and management of St Nicholas Bristol and Concord Church (from Sept 2022). The leadership of the church's activities, development of its spiritual life and its daily management has been delegated to the Core Leadership Team of each church who are supported in that role by senior clergy and staff. The Board of Trustees retains final decisions over policies, employment of staff and finance, and takes responsibility for all matters of legal and regulatory compliance and safeguarding. 

Trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no financial benefit from the charity. Trustees are appointed by ordinary resolution by members, existing trustees or by the Bishop of Bristol in her corporate capacity. 

## **Decision Making** 

All financial and strategic decisions over £10,000 are taken by the majority of the Board of Trustees. Any financial and strategic decisions over £5,000 are taken by the senior leadership and treasurer. The organisational implementation of the strategy is carried out by senior leadership and staff. 

## **Training** 

All staff, volunteers and trustees undergo a formal recruitment and selection process, followed by an induction period that includes any training considered necessary to effectively perform their role. The senior leader of the church is a member of clergy, whose pay is set via stipend, the level of which is set by the Diocese. 

## **Volunteers** 

The church benefits from the dedicated work of a great number of volunteers. In accordance with FRS 102 and the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the economic contribution of general volunteers is not recognised in the accounts. 

## **Risk Management** 

Internal financial risks are managed by the implementation of financial procedures for the collection, banking and recording of all donations and the authorisation and recording of all expenditure. The company has a safeguarding officer and a safeguarding policy that is reviewed annually. The company also has a data protection policy and  health and safety policy. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

**Page 3** 

Bristol CCRC Trust, St Nicholas Church, St Nicholas Street, Bristol, BS1 1UE Company no. 11115823. Charity no. 1178905 




The Board of Trustees is committed to the vision statement of the charity to play our part in the evangelisation of the nation, the revitalisation of the church and the transformation of society. In accordance with the vision statement, St Nicholas Bristol and Concord Church aim to meet their objectives through the provision of public services of worship, religious teaching, evangelistic events and courses, social action, instruction and support for family life and resourcing and planting churches. Given the diversity of the churches’ activities, performance is measured on a case by case basis. 

Our objectives are set out in our governing document, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, which was agreed by the Board of Trustees on 18 December 2017. 

## **Our objectives** 

The churches’ objects are restricted specifically, only for the public benefit to the advancement of the Christian religion principally: 

- through the provision of an Anglican place of worship in Bristol, and 

- by contributing towards the establishment, renewal and revitalisation of churches within the Anglican communion. 

## **Public Benefit** 

In accordance with our duties as stated in section 17(5) of the Charities Act, we have considered the guidance provided by the Charity Commission in regard to public benefit. This public benefit has been demonstrated by the activities undertaken since inception of the charity outlined in this document. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

During the period under review, Bristol CCRC Trust continued to invest in its three priority areas - discipleship, leadership and church planting. Alongside this the regular activity of the church continued. 

A significant focus of the year was the launch of the first church plant which started in September 2022. Led by Andy and Katy Carter, Concord Church planted in North Bristol with a mission to reach the thousands of people moving into the new housing developments being built on the old Bristol airfield. The church meets in the Concorde Hangar at the Aerospace Museum with the name inspired by the innovative and pioneering nature of the aircraft along with the word 'Concord' which means unity and harmony. The church currently sits under the one BMO and charity but is exploring becoming its own entity in 2023. 

At St Nicholas the Sunday gatherings have begun to grow post COVID with many of those attending connecting and reconnecting with the vision of the church through serving, giving and praying. Around 60% of our Sunday congregation are under 30 with kids, youth and students groups increasing in number. Within Social Action ministries there was further investment in the food hub and other activities with an aim of continuing to address the needs of the city. Our weekly toddler group, which creates a space for young children and parents/guardians to find community and play has continued to thrive. By the end of 2022 almost 50% of this group were from outside of the church. 

Following a review of our midweek groups, the church established two Hubs. These midsized gatherings started in September and are run biweekly with an aim to integrate new and existing congregations into the life of the church, go deeper into the Sunday teaching and provide a training platform for leaders. 

## **FUTURE PLANS** 

**Page 4** 

Bristol CCRC Trust, St Nicholas Church, St Nicholas Street, Bristol, BS1 1UE Company no. 11115823. Charity no. 1178905 




As it will have been five years since planting in September 2023 the Trustees are reviewing a new strategy for St Nicholas which will come into place towards the end of the year following approval by the board. Concord is exploring the option of becoming its own BMO and charity in 2023. Until then the churches will continue to focus on their priority areas of discipleship, leadership and church planting. A focus on discipleship aims to develop Christian maturity in the congregation and increase levels of commitment. A focus on leadership aims to raise up a younger, more diverse leadership team across all areas of church ministry. A focus on church planting will help us to begin to make future plans, in partnership with the Diocese, for the next plant in Bristol. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

In the period to the end of December 2022, St Nicholas raised a total of £457k (2021 £521k) against expenditure of £575k (2021 £468k). The deficit on unrestricted funds in 2022 totalled £96k (2021 £110k surplus) with a balance of £332k of funds carried forward into 2023. Restricted funds received totalled £89k (£74k) with a balance of £71k (2021 £85k) on unrestricted funds carried forward into 2023. 

## **RESERVES POLICY** 

It is the aim of the trustees that the free reserves (unrestricted and not represented by fixed assets) held by the charity should cover 3-6 months of unrestricted expenditure. This equates to approximately £120-£240k. At this level the trustees feel that they would be able to continue the current activities of the charity in the event of a significant drop in funding. Should this happen, it would also be necessary to consider how the funding would be replaced or activities changed. The church currently has free reserves going forward into 2023 of £312k. The trustees keep reserves under constant review. 

## **SAFEGUARDING** 

The Board of Trustees have adopted the Diocese of Bristol’s safeguarding policy relating to children, young people and vulnerable people. In November 2022 the safeguarding officer, Mr Zak Verry was replaced by Mrs Alex Parry. All Safeguarding Officers have completed the necessary diocese training courses in safeguarding young people and vulnerable adults. 

The trustees are committed to the principles of best practice in relation to safeguarding and comply with the duty under section 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016 in respect of having due regard to House of Bishops’ guidance on safeguarding children and vulnerable adults. The guidance can be read in full on the Church of England official website. 

## **THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES RESPONSIBILITIES IN RELATION TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

Charity law requires the trustees to prepare a statement of financial activities and statement of assets and liabilities for each financial year, which gives a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the church and of its financial activities for that year and adequately distinguishes any material special trust or other restricted fund of the church.  In preparing those financial statements the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

**Page 5** 

Bristol CCRC Trust, St Nicholas Church, St Nicholas Street, Bristol, BS1 1UE Company no. 11115823. Charity no. 1178905 




- state whether the policies adopted are in accordance with the appropriate SORP on Accounting by Charities and the Accounting Regulations and with applicable accounting standards, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

- prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the church will continue to operate. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose, with reasonable accuracy at any time, the financial position of the church, and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with applicable Accounting Standards and Statements of Recommended Practice and the regulations made under the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the church and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

On behalf of the Board of Trustees, 


Revd. Toby Flint Senior Leader and Chair of Trustees

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF Bristol CCRC Trust Ltd (St Nicholas, Bristol) ('the Company')** 

## **Independent examiner’s report to the Trustees of Bristol CCRC Trust Ltd.** 

I report on the financial statements of the charitable company for the year ended 31 December 2022, which comprise the statement of financial activities, balance sheet, related notes and are set out on pages 8 to 17. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The charity’s trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act).  The charity is required by company law to prepare accrual based accounts. 

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under part 16 of the 2006 Companies Act and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

- examine the financial statements 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. 

This report, including my statement, has been prepared for and only for the charity’s trustees as a body.  My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity’s trustees those matters that I am required to state to them in an independent examiner’s report and for no other purpose.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to any other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body for my examination work, for this report or for the statements that I have made. 

## **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 with 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** 

I have completed by examination. I confirm that no matter has come to my attention: 

   - which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements 

   - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006 and section 130 of the 2011 Act ; and 

   - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of the Companies Act 2006 and Regulation 8 of the Accounts Regulations and the 2011 Act 

   - have not been met; or 

- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **BRISTOL CCRC TRUST LTD (ST NICHOLAS, BRISTOL) Notes to the accounts** 

**For the period ended 31st December 2022** 

## **1  ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. 

Bristol CCRC Trust Ltd meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.  Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s). 

The trustees consider that the Bristol CCRC Trust Ltd is a going concern and have accordingly prepared the accounts under the historical basis of accounting. 

The trustees are confident that with the continued support of the congregation, and appropriate management of expenditure, the church is a going concern and will continue to be financially viable in the foreseeable future. Budgets and cash flow forecasts are in place for 2023 and levels of free reserves at the start of 2022 were around £250k 

## **Funds** 

General funds represent the funds of the charity that are not subject to any restrictions regarding their use and are available for application on the general purposes of the church.  Restricted funds are those donated for specific purposes. 

## **Income** 

## _Voluntary income and capital sources_ 

Donations and other income are recognised when received and an estimate of income tax recoverable is recognised  when the related donations are recognised. 

Grants and legacies to the Trust are accounted for as soon as the church is notified of its legal entitlement, the amount due is quantifiable and its ultimate receipt by the church is  probable. 

## **Fixed assets** 

Additions and improvements to the newly acquired church premises are written off as incurred. Only items costing £1,000 or above are capitalised. Fixed assets are depreciated on a straight line basis as follows: 

Improvements to the buildings: 10 years Fixtures and fittings including electricals: 5 years Plant & machinery including sound and audio: 5 years Computer equipment: 3 years 

## **Current assets** 

Amounts owing to the church at 31 December in respect of fees, rents or other income such as gift aid are shown as debtors less provision for amounts that may prove uncollectable.
