Trustees' Report (continued)
Achievements and performance
Throughout this year our church service has continued to run and we have seen growth in the numbers of those attending services and in people joining us. We have continued to run our home groups and prayer group and in addition to this we have run several Alpha courses. The young people continue to meet as a group for fun social activities as well as for discipleship.
This year has seen some incredible growth and new salvations with many baptisms. We are so grateful and blessed by all the God is doing in our town.
Existing projects have continued to run this year and we have seen some great results across the board on these as well as new projects beginning.
Young Creatives has entered year 2 of funding. Funded for 5 years through The National Lottery Community Fund, the project is aimed at supporting young people, aged 11-18, with their mental health, wellbeing & confidence through the medium of music and media. Each week we meet and offer free music & media tuition including singing, piano, drums, guitar lessons as well as photography, filming, editing, animation and more. Most students are referred to us through schools and support agencies who feel they would benefit from taking part. The project retained many of the staff team from the previous Live Sound project and has gotten off to a really strong start.
Our Vibes 18-25 monthly music café pilot came to an end. This provided safe space and support to young adults using music. It has become a follow on for those who have outgrown Young Creatives & Live Sound project. This was funded by Shine Lincolnshire.
The Engage Project has continued to run successfully. This is funded by the National Lottery Community Fund and will run for 1 more year. The aim of this project is to reach out to members of our migrant community to support their integration into the community. This is done by providing a number of activities including a café where people can come and chat and meet others in a friendly, safe environment, providing English lessons for those whose English is not their first language, running a toddler group and holding community events such as Celebrate the Nations party. This fund also allows project staff to carry out home visits to those more isolated or unsure of mixing with others within the community. We will also host a number of forums working alongside other agencies including the local council to see how we can effectively serve and support our local migrant community.
We have continued to work with, and support displaced Ukrainian families who have been re-homed in our community. Our Ukrainian community has continued to run as a café on a Saturday morning. This is staffed by Ukrainian refugees and provides a space for the local Ukrainian community to meet together on a weekly basis.
We have continued to run 2 additional café days supported by Shine Lincolnshire. These aim to promote good mental health and wellbeing for those who struggle with this and feel isolated.
In partnership with Grantham Additional Needs Federation (GANF), we hold a "Tasty Treats Cafe" within the Centre on two mornings a week. This project offers major opportunities for young people with learning difficulties to integrate into the community and acquire new skills in catering and public service.
This combined means we have a café session running 6 days a week within the centre, all of which are well attended.

Trustees' Report (continued)
During the winter of 2024/2025, with the cost of living crisis continuing to have an adverse effect on many, we were funded by the NHS, Shine Lincolnshire and The National Lottery to remain open during the winter period for additional days and longer times and provide additional services. This was especially helpful and well attended over the Christmas period when we have ordinarily closed for staff holidays. This funding meant we could employ additional sessional workers to provide café cover allowing us to open our café for those who were struggling to heat their homes and were struggling with isolation over the winter period. We also became a distribution centre for warm packs within our town.
Our Parent and Toddler group is extremely well attended and now runs over 2 days funded through the Engage project and Shine Lincolnshire.
We have continued the work with our migrant community. Having seen an increase in the number of people seeking asylum in the previous year we have continued to support those placed in our community. We no longer go into the hotel, where many of them were accommodated, but they now come into our centre to receive support. With the increase in the number of those wanting to access our services we have been funded by The National Lottery under Supporting Refugees and Asylum seekers fund to provide additional English lessons and café sessions. The majority of all our lessons are now taught in groups based on ability due the sheer number of those accessing them across all our projects.
We continue to be supported with food donation from local supermarkets which enables us to distribute food packages to those in need through the projects that we run.
With our premises is constant use we have been looking at how we become more environmentally friendly. With the cost of energy prices soaring, we have looked to see how we can best upgrade parts of our premises to reduce costs as well as be environmentally friendly. We have received several funds to support an upgrade to our heating and lighting system and we have installed Solar Panels to our site.
The charity is increasingly dependent on its volunteers. These come from a wide spectrum of society and represent all age groups, ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds. The charity has received much help and support from Lincolnshire Community Volunteer Service (LCVS) and Voluntary Centre Services (VCS) for the training and development of volunteers. With this support the charity has been able to maintain a volunteer workforce of over 60 people this year.
The Senior leadership have continued to build links with other local churches and meet regularly with other local church ministers.
The trustees continue to meet regularly.
Financial review
The Trustees consider that the financial position of the charity is satisfactory.
Policy on reserves
The charity will hold a minimum of 3 months budgeted funds in reserves. Our policy is to retain sufficient reserves
-
To ensure that the charity has sufficient funds to meet its financial commitments;
-
To demonstrate that the charity is sustainable into the future;
-
To ensure that the charity is able to manage future unforeseen financial difficulties;
-
To ensure that excessive funds are not held without any identifiable reason or for any identifiable purpose. This reserves policy relates only to the charity unrestricted funds. Restricted funds may be held in addition to be used for the restricted purpose for which they were given.

Structure, governance and management
Nature of governing document
The CIO Foundation is operated under the rules of its constitution adopted 7/1/2019.
Recruitment and appointment of trustees
New trustees are appointed when a suitable person is found and when they are willing to undertake the position. They are then appointed by a full meeting of the trustees.
Organisational structure
Jubilee Church is registered as a CIO. The board of Trustees oversee the governance of the charity. The Senior Leadership of the church have responsibility for the spiritual side and growth of the church. Decisions on day-to-day administration and running of the charity are made by the management team appointed by the Trustees. Decisions that relate to financial giving, large purchases and changes outside the scope of budgets or to the general direction of the charity are made by the Trustees.
Decisions regarding the spiritual health and direction of the church are made by the Senior Leadership team who report back to the board of Trustees. The Senior Leaders are accredited by Churches In Communities. This accreditation provides a layer of accountability and requires the Senior Leaders to undergo annual reviews to ensure they are following their vision and plan. Please note that this affiliation is for the Senior Leaders personally and not for the charity.
New trustees are only appointed by the Trustees. The Senior leadership team can nominate a person as a candidate, but the decision to appoint someone new is made by the Trustee. A Trustee candidate is selected based on their skill set, what they can bring to the board, their knowledge of the charity, and their willingness to support. If a person is agreed to be a suitable candidate, a nominated Trustee will reach out to them. Once appointed, all new Trustees will be required to undergo safeguarding training, have a DBS check, read and agree with the policies and procedures of the charity. Additional training in specific areas will be offered as needed.
The trustees meet to discuss charitable business and decisions in person and online throughout the year. Minor business and small decisions can be made through email communication.
The Trustees meet and discuss wages on an annual basis. Wage increases are made in line with inflation /& the percentage increase in the national living wage. Any larger increase to a wage is based on an individual’s quality of work and skill set. All wages are kept in line with roles of a similar nature in other organisations. Wages for those employed on funded projects are set by the funders at the time of award. Many of these funds, which run for several years, have a wage increase built in.
The wage for the Senior Leader and all other ministry roles is set and reviewed based on similar roles within other church sectors such as AOG, Baptist Union, and Methodist church.
The charity has a good relationship with its funders and will provide reporting updates for its projects as required. This is usually done quarterly or biannually. We ensure there is transparency of funds received and spent and we will provide the relevant information and receipts as needed. We have a strong working relationship with our local authority and with other churches in our community, enabling us to work together and support our beneficiaries to the best of our ability.

Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Jubilee Church (ACM)
Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Jubilee Church (ACM)
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Jubilee Church (ACM) (the Charity) for the year ended 30 June 2025.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Charity’s accounts 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
Since the Charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA), which is one of the listed bodies. I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts 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 accounts to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2025
1 Accounting policies
Statement of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the second edition of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
Basis of preparation
Jubilee Church (ACM) 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 notes.
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The trustees assess whether the use of going concern is appropriate i.e. whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of one year from the date of approval of the financial statements.
Income and endowments
Voluntary income including donations, gifts, legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general nature is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Donations and legacies
Donations and legacies are recognised on a receivable basis when receipt is probable and the amount can be reliably measured.
Investment income
Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due.
Expenditure
All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregates similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.
Charitable activities
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Page 11
Jubilee Church (ACM)
Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2025 (continued)
Taxation
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
Tangible fixed assets
Individual fixed assets costing £1000 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciation and amortisation
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:
Asset class Depreciation method and rate Furniture & equipment Straight line 33.3% General equipment Straight line 33.3%
Trade debtors
Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business.
Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
Trade creditors
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the charity does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Fund structure
Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees' discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.
Page 12
Jubilee Church (ACM)
Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2025 (continued)
Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.
Pensions and other post retirement obligations
The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme which is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the charity has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.
