Financial Review
The trustees approve an annual budget and give regular attention to financial results, variance from budgets and cash flow. Income was principally derived from the generous gifts and voluntary support of members of the Chariry.
For the year, the charity's income (including recoveries of gift aid) was £54,016 (2023: £30,240) and its expenditure was £47,780 (2023: £24,904), which resulted in a Surplus of £6,236 (2023: Surplus of £5,336).
The trustees have considered the Charity’s current financial position and projections for the coming 12 months. The trustees are satisfied that the charity is and will remain solvent through that period.
Principal Funding Sources
The principal funding sources for the charity are currently by way of Donations and Gifts from congregants through the offering basket passed during Church services and through Bank Standing Orders.
Reserves Policy
The Board of Trustees has examined the Charity's requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. It has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity should be between 3 and 6 months of the expenditure.
The expenditure for Year ended 29th February 2024 is £47,780 and therefore the targeted reserves should be between £11,945 and £23,890 in general funds. The reserves are needed to meet the working capital requirements of the charity and the trustees are confident that at this level they would be able to continue the current activities of the Charity in the event of a significant drop in funding. This general reserve policy has not been met this year as in previous years.
Plans for Future Periods
The Charity continues to explore ways of furthering its charitable objectives in an effective manner by ensuring there is awareness of its services and getting more involved in the community in which it operates. The Charity seeks to provide services and activities that meet the needs of the people and this reflects its Christian ethos and beliefs in order to effect change in the moral and spiritual climate of United Kingdom, and the other countries the Charity intends to have a presence. Plan are also being developed to become more active within the Bury community.
The Charity and Covid-19
The Covid-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on The Redeemed Christian Church of God The Lighthouse Bury since the introduction of control measures in March 2020. The Charity has had to adapt its operating model and religious practices to cope of with a physically dispersed congregation. These adjustments were most acute for our congregation, who are primarily from disadvantaged and low-income backgrounds, including millennials and senior citizens.
The effect of the pandemic has necessitated significant investment in digital insfrastructure to enable smooth running of church operations to meet congregational needs.
The implications on Church life have become most severe in the below areas:
a. Inability to physically visit congregation members at hospitals and those in care;
b. Cancellation of face-to-face worship services, including weddings, festivals and funerals;
c. Cancellation of missions and pilgrimages;
d. Deterioration in mental health and wellbeing of those in isolation, particulary elderly congregation members;
e. Diminished sense of community and engagement with worship.
As we begin to emerge from an extended period of sheltering and social distancing, there are residual concerns about attendance, engagement and income.
Page 3
The Redeemed Christian Church of God The Lighthouse Parish, Bury Trustees' Annual Report for the Year Ended 29 February 2024
We have set out below interventions undertaken to mitigate the impact of the pandemic on worship, income and community engagement:
a. Provision of Hybrid Services: Church services, programs and teachings have been delivered online since restrictions were put in place by the government. However, during the period of relaxed restrictions, the charity operated with limited capacity and therefore continued to provide online services simultaneously.
-
b. We broadcast from the church building and other locations using collaboration tools (Zoom) and social media platforms (Youtube, Facbook, Twitter and Instagram).
-
c. Sensitization of church members on use of online platforms to make donations.

1. Statutory Information
The charity is a charitable company limited by guarantee and is incorporated in the United Kingdom. The Company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.
2. Accounting Policies
These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the "Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) ("the Charities SORP"), with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland ("FRS 102"), with the Companies Act 2006 and with the Charities Act 2011. The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity as set out in FRS 102.
The principles adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below.
a). Going concern
The trustees (who are the charitable company's directors for the purposes of company law) have assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of the financial statements.
In particular the trustees have considered the charity's forecasts and projections and the possible implications should projected income and/or expenditure vary unexpectedly. The trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future.The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.
b). Income
Income including investment income is recognised in the period in which the charity becomes entitled to receipt, the amount receivable can be measured with reasonable certainty, and receipt is probable. For the most part, income is generally recognised when it is received. Income is only deferred when the charity has to fulfil conditions before becoming entitled to it or where the donor has specified that the income is to be expended in a future period.
Income from donations and legacies includes:
i). Voluntary income is received by way of donations and gifts and is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable.
ii). Recoverable gift aid. This is recognised when the related donation is received. Gift aid that has not been recovered by the balance sheet date is included as a debtor.
iii). Goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries are recognised as income when receivable at fair value (being an estimate of the amount it would cost to purchase those items).
The charity relies on volunteers to carry out many of its activities, particularly the work with Feeding and Medical Supplies. However, in accordance with the SORP, the value of these services has not been included in these financial statements as they cannot be reliably measured.
Page 11
The Redeemed Christian Church of God The Lighthouse Parish, Bury Notes forming part of the financial statements for the Year Ended 29 February 2024
When donated goods are distributed an expense in respect of those items is included in the Statement of Financial Activities. At the year end any goods that have not been distributed are recognised as stock.
Income from charitable activities represents income receivable from goods, services and facilities supplied in furtherance of the charity's charitable objects. It includes income from charity retreats and other events and courses.
The charity has taken the view that it has only one charitable activity, namely the advancement of the Christian faith and all income from donations, legacies and charitable activities is in respect of this one activity.
c). Expenditure
Expenditure, including irrecoverable VAT, is recognised when it is incurred or, if earlier, when a legal or constructive obligation for a payment arises provided that it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
The charity makes grants to other institutions and individuals to further its charitable objectives. Grants payable are recognised as constructive obligations arise, which is generally when the charity expresses a commitment to the recipient that can be measured reliably and then only to the extent that any conditions associated with the grant are outside of the control of the charity.
The Charities SORP requires charities with income over £500,000 to allocate costs to the various activities undertaken by the charity. The nature of the work of the charity is considered to be so integrated that the core ccharity activity costs are considered to be for the one activity.
Governance costs, which are included in expenditure on charitable activities but are identified separately in the notes to the accounts, includes costs associated with the independent examination of the financial statements, compliance with Constitutional and statutory requirements and any other expenditure incurred on the strategic management of the charity.
d). Fund Accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. Restricted funds are donations which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors; they include donations received from appeals for specific activities or projects.
e). Tangible Fixed assets
Fixed assets (excluding investments) are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The costs of minor additions or those costing below £1,000 are not capitalised. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset over its expected useful life, which in all cases is estimated at 4 years.
Investments held as fixed assets are revalued at mid market value at the blance sheet date and the gain or loss taken to the Statement of Financial Activities.
f). Stocks
Stocks of donated items held for distribution to beneficiaries are measured at fair value.
g). Pension Scheme arrangements
The charity operates defined contribution pension schemes for its employees. Obligations for contributions to these schemes are recognised as an expense when the liability arises. The assets of these schemes are held separately from those of the charity in independently administered funds.
Page 12
The Redeemed Christian Church of God The Lighthouse Parish, Bury Notes forming part of the financial statements for the Year Ended 29 February 2024
h). Taxation
As a charity, The Redeemed Christian Church of God The Lighthouse Parish, Bury is exempt from tax on income and gains falling within Section 505 of the Taxes Act 1988 or s256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 to the extent that these are applied to its charitable objects. No tax charges have risen in the Charity.
The company is a registered charity; it has taken advantage of the various reliefs from taxation available to charities and no tax is payable on the charity's income.
i). Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement
The trustees do not consider that there are any material sources of estimation or uncertainty at the balance sheet date that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying values of assets and liabilities in the next reporting period
