DUNCHURCH BAPTIST CHURCH

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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 2019).

The web address for the Church is: www.dunchurchbaptistchurch.org.uk

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The principal purpose of the Church is the advancement of the Christian faith according to the principles of the Baptist denomination. The Church may also advance education and carry out other charitable purposes in the United Kingdom and/or other parts of the world.

Our vision is for people to experience the love of God, and hear his message for them.

Its objectives are pursued by:-

The church tithed its non-rental, non-building fund income supporting local, national and international charities. The decision on which groups to support is made by the church meeting.

The minister is the only paid office holder. The church has no other employees. All of its work, including that carried out by the other trustees, is done by volunteers. Many of these are members of the church but some are those who attend the church but are not members.

Public benefit

Our Church is open to all regardless of their faith position. Everyone is welcomed and offered the benefits of our fellowship.

We believe that offering the teaching of Christianity is a benefit to the local area and to society at large.

Noah's Ark Toddler Group is open to any parent/carer and their child. This was able to re-start in September 2021 for two sessions a week with limited numbers to maintain a Covid-secure environment for those attending.

Church rooms are available for hire by community groups.

The Trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit, and believe the activities stated above comply with this guidance.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities

On-going Covid restrictions meant that Sunday morning services continued to be pre-recorded and streamed via YouTube during the first part of the year, followed by Zoom calls to allow people to chat and share. As restrictions eased, we carefully transitioned to in-person services and live-streaming the morning services. Evening services have remained on Zoom with good attendance. Many other meetings have continued via Zoom. We have implemented a rigorous pastoral care system to ensure continuing connections with, and when necessary practical support for, all our contacts.

During the year:-

The Building Committee is responsible to the trustees and church meeting and is made up of volunteers drawn from the church.

Work on the building project has continued and services moved into the new Baptist Church building in February 2022.

Fund raising for the building project has continued throughout the year and is on-going.

Covid-19 Impact

With the easing of restrictions during the year it has been good to be able to re-start face-to-face services and meetings, particularly with the additional space the new building provides, taking care to follow guidelines to ensure we make the environment as covid-safe as we are able. Some meetings and evening services continue to meet on Zoom as this has proved beneficial, particularly for those with health issues.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position and Reserves Policy

The church's reserves policy is to have in hand in the General Fund at any time sufficient to cover two month's unavoidable running expenses.

The main funds of the church are:

Funds raised during the year came either directly from those attending the church or from fundraising instigated by them.

The church encourages the use of the Gift Aid scheme and made claims for Gift Aid monies each half year. Due to Covid-19 and not being able to have cash collections for part of the year, we have missed out on the full benefit of the Gift Aid Small Donations scheme this year.

The church owns (subject to mortgage) a house. The principal reason for ownership is to be able to offer a manse to any future minister who needs the accommodation. Whilst not needed for this purpose the house is let to tenants. The church uses letting agents, Belvoir Rugby.

During the year we have been able to use our Support Other Churches Fund to support a church project in Albania to enable them to assist with their building needs.

All expenditure supported the objectives of the church.

Total funds as at 31 March 2022 amounted to £1,273,410 (2021: £1,130,151), of which £162,413 (2021: £154,397) were unrestricted.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF DUNCHURCH BAPTIST CHURCH

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Dunchurch Baptist Church

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Dunchurch Baptist Church (the Trust) for the year ended 31 March 2022.

Responsibilities and basis of report

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

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I 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:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  2. the accounts do not comply with the applicable 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.

Use of our report:

������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������ (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008.

DUNCHURCH BAPTIST CHURCH NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Dunchurch Baptist Church is a registered charity. The charity's registered number and principal office address can be found on the Company Information page.

No material uncertainties exist in relation to going concern.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).

Significant judgements and estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the company accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed within the individual accounting policies below.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Tangible fixed assets

For inalienable property acquired prior to 2004, there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such assets are not valued in the accounts.

Any items acquired during the year that do not exceed £1,000 are written off.

The Manse is not depreciated as the residual value is greater than or equal to its cost.

The Coventry Road property is depreciated by 2% on a straight line basis.

Fixtures and fittings are depreciated by 20% on a straight line basis.

Other fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of property, plant and equipment.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each balance sheet date. The selection of these residual values and estimated lives requires the exercise of judgement. The trustees are required to assess whether there is an indication of impairment to the carrying value of assets. In making that assessment, judgements are made in estimating value in use. The trustees consider that the individual carrying values of assets are supportable by their value in use.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Taxation

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charity's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.

Financial instruments

Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and in hand and short term deposits with an original maturity date of three months or less.

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income under administrative expenses.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the entity after deducting all of its financial liabilities.

Where the contractual obligations of financial instruments are equivalent to a similar debt instrument, those financial instruments are classed as financial liabilities. Financial liabilities are presented as such in the balance sheet. Finance costs and gains or losses relating to financial liabilities are included in the profit and loss account. Finance costs are calculated so as to produce a constant rate of return on the outstanding liability.

The Children & Young People (Lazer) Fund is for youth related expenditure.

20. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT OBLIGATIONS

The Church is an employer participating in a pension scheme known as the Baptist Pension Scheme ��������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������� Scheme is a separate legal entity and the assets of the Scheme are held separately from those of the Employer and the other participating employers.

For any month, each participating employer in the Scheme pays contributions as set out in the Schedule of Contributions in force at that time.

The Scheme is considered to be a multi-employer scheme as described in Section 28 of FRS 102. ���������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������� and means that contributions are accounted for as if the Scheme were a defined contribution scheme. The pensions costs charged to the SoFA in the year are contributions payable towards benefits and expenses accrued in that year, plus any impact of deficiency contributions (see below).

The Minister is eligible to join the Scheme.

From January 2012, pension provision is being made through the Defined Contribution (DC) Plan within the Scheme. In general, members pay 8% of their Pensionable Income and employers pay 6% �������������������������������������������������������������������������������� ted and managed on behalf of the Pension Trustee by Legal and General Life Assurance Society Limited. In addition, the employer pays a further 4% of Pensionable Income to cover Death in Service Benefits, administration costs, and an associated insurance policy which provides income protection for Scheme members in the event that they are unable to work due to long-term incapacity. This income protection policy has been insured by the Baptist Union of Great Britain with Unum Limited. [Members of the Basic Section pay reduced contributions of 5% of Pensionable Income, and their employers also pay a total of 5%.] The further 4% contribution rate is reduced to 3% for Employer contributions made to the Segregated DC Arrangement.

Benefits in respect of service prior to 1 January 2012 are provided through the Defined Benefit (DB) Plan within the Scheme. The main benefits for pre-2012 service were a defined benefit pension of one eightieth of Final Minimum Pensionable Income for each year of Pensionable Service, together with additional pension in respect of premiums paid on Pensionable Income in excess of Minimum �������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������� in 1925, but was closed to future accrual of defined benefits on 31 December 2011.

Actuarial valuation as at 31 December 2019

A formal valuation of the Defined Benefit (DB) Plan was performed at 31 December 2019 by a professionally qualified Actuary using the Projected Unit Method. The market value of the DB Plan assets at the valuation date was £298 million.

The valuation of the DB Plan revealed a deficit of assets compared with the value of liabilities of £18 million (equivalent to a past service funding level of 94%). The Church and the other employers supporting the DB Plan are collectively responsible for funding this deficit.

20. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT OBLIGATIONS - continued

The key assumptions underlying the valuation were as follows:

Type of financial assumption % pa RPI price inflation assumption 3.20 CPI price inflation assumption 2.70 Minimum Pensionable Income increases (RPI) 3.20 Assumed investment returns - Pre-retirement 2.95 - Post retirement 1.70 Deferred pension increases - Pre April 2009 3.20 - Post April 2009 2.50 Pension increases - Main Scheme pension 2.70

Post-retirement mortality in accordance with 80% of the S2NFA and S2NMA tables, with allowance for future improvements in mortality rates from 2013 in line with the CMI 2019 core projections, with a long term annual rate of improvement of 1.75% for males and 1.5% for females, with the core smoothing parameter and with additional initial mortality improvement factor A=0.5%.

The next actuarial valuation of the DB Plan within the Scheme is due to take place not later than as at 31 December 2022.

Recovery Plan

In addition to the contributions to the DC Plan set out above, where a valuation of the DB Plan reveals a deficit the Trustee and the Council agree to a rate of deficiency contributions from churches and other employers involved in the DB Plan.

Under the current Recovery Plan dated 30 September 2020, deficiency contributions are payable until 30 June 2026. These contributions are broadly based on the employer's membership at 31 December 2014 and increase annually in line with increases to Minimum Pensionable Income as defined in the Rules. However, the Trustee and the Council agreed a 50% reduction for all deficiency contributions payable between 1 July 2020 and 31 December 2020.

Cessation Event

Consequent upon the departure of the Minister from the Church in 2006, the Church had a cessation event under Section 75 of the Pensions Act 1995. This makes the Church liable for the proportion of the overall deficit (assessed by reference to the cost of securing benefits by the purchase of annuities) applicable to its previous Ministers who were members of the Scheme.

In 2020 the Church entered into a "Deferred Debt Arrangement". Under this arrangement the Church is no longer liable for this debt, but the Church continues to pay the ongoing deficiency contributions as outlined above. There are limited circumstances under the Deferred Debt Arrangement where the Church would become responsible for a debt equal to its share of the current BPS deficit (assessed by reference to the up to date cost of securing benefits by the purchase of annuities).
