Achievements and Performance

SORP reference
Summary of the main
achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.
Para 1.20 Covid has challenged Mount Pleasant, bringing
forward the natural decline of some ministries,
the challenge of discipleship in these uncertain
times also being something that has shaken
people’s faith in and sense of belonging to
Christian communities.
The year began, after another short lockdown for
us as a church, with our Covenant Service and a
Spiritual Renewal Day in January. This began
what was felt a year in which we started to enter
into a fresh realisation that nothing of lasting
value will be conceived in our church, unless it is
birthed in a place of prayer. May this continue to
be our desire in the years ahead.
Preaching and teaching series have included a
most positive series called Frontline Sunday, in
collaboration with the London Institute for Con‐
temporary Christianity, which was followed with
discussion, Bible Studies and further reflections
in Life Groups.
Times of uncertainty in our Baptist family contin‐

ality and gender recognition. Please continue to pray about this, especially as opportunities to advocate for our church’s agreed position. Pray for our new Regional Ministers in the Central The staff here at Mount Pleasant have been faithful in their service and ministry and we are grateful to God for them all. The Elders and Deacons (Trustees) are honourable and faithful women and men of God. It was a pleasure to welcome to new members into the fellowship, and to rejoice with two people who were baptised.

Children’s and families’ ministry

2022 was the first year that we have been able to put on a full programme of children’s events without interruption. We are getting the gospel message out to lots of children who wouldn’t otherwise hear it. On a week by week basis we have been following our 3 year plan in Junior Church. As Children’s and Family worker I have almost worked through the whole 3 years now and have done them all on Kidschurch which continues to go out on YouTube each week. In terms of our events, we started the year with the Pancake Party with the usual mix of games, pancake racing, pancake drive (just like a beetle drive but with pancakes and toppings) and of course the eating of pancakes and lots of fun. A few weeks later was the Easter crafts on Good Friday, again with games, crafts, the Easter story and hot cross buns. In July we were able to have our first Holiday Club since 2019. It was very well attended and we had a really great week focusing on the story of David. After Holiday Club was the Light Party which was very well attended with around 27 children coming along. We followed our typical programme of games, crafts, singing and story and of course food.

It has been good to see that contacts which we have made in the past are not only coming along again, but also bringing friends with them which is seeing numbers rise. The children are leaving happy and having heard a little of the Bible. Our aim is to tell them something of Jesus and what he has done for them but also to show them something of his love too. The All age services also continued to happen around 3 times a year, where we aim to engage all the church family in a service.

In addition to all of these things, I have been building relationships with local schools. I did a virtual tour of the church for a local primary school and am working to forge closer links in the local community through the schools.

Chatterbox

Chatterbox has continued with its tried‐and‐ tested formula every Monday in term time and numbers gradually increased during the year to pre‐pandemic levels, with 15 to 20 plus children attending with their carers by the end of the year. We get a lovely mix of mums, grand‐ mothers and child‐minders with a sprinkling of dads. Most of them are regular attenders and we are encouraged by their positive feedback. The year ended with our Christmas Party, in‐ cluding a visit from Father Christmas and the Nativity story followed by sausage and chips! A veggie option also available! (And we always use a vegetable‐based spread on the weekly toast to cater for most dietary needs).

Christians Against Poverty Centre

For much of the year, our CAP Centre activity was conducted online and over the phone. It has been a tough time, but during lockdown our existing clients were all followed up and several clients celebrated becoming debt free. The Centre started working with individual and families during the year. The workload on our Centre Manager has been such that we now have a Debt Coach at the Centre. He will be a great help and will also enable to spread the work to the north of the county.

Each year over the last six years we have been able to put together Christmas hampers full of seasonal treats and essentials and supermarket vouchers for CAP clients. We were able to support about twenty‐seven individuals and families at Christmas in this way in 2020.

Holiday Club

Holiday Club 2022 was our first year back after the pandemic and as a team we were unsure of how many children we would have and accepted that we could potentially have small numbers. When we opened the booking, we expected around 20 children although God had different plans. The children that had attended before the pandemic were eager to return and 44 children registered for the week. Due to the number of volunteers that we had, we had to turn children away that turned up on the day. As a team we felt very blessed by the numbers of children that had been entrusted to us for the week. Although many of the children attended a Church, there were a number of children that do not have Church contact except through this and the other children’s events held throughout the year. Our theme for the week was David and we looked at stories related to his life.

We focussed on David was chosen. Northampton Christians Against Poverty Centre It has again been a great privilege to head up this wonderful ministry at MP and the year proved a very busy year. Our centre sees five new clients each month. Over the year we had twenty new enquiries and appointments, seven of whom be‐ came debt free through the year, which is always a reason to celebrate and rejoice! Only three of them didn’t engage and the rest are still ongoing either waiting to become debt free or paying into their repayment plans. ACTS 435, the wonderful charity that I can apply to for funds for all sorts of items, has stepped up yet again for nearly all of my clients. From tablets, uniforms, shoes, to Debt Relief Order fees and more, their donors have helped enormously again through the year. They are truly amazing.

Members of our congregation have continued to faithfully donate money into our fund for Client Help. This fund enables us to provide food shops, pre payment meter and pay as you go phone top ups for our clients who continually struggle to make their outgoings tally with their income ‐ which is sometimes impossible.

Our Christmas hampers were very well accepted again this year. We put together and gave out thirty‐eight which was a mammoth task!

CAP Life Skills

The March 2022 CAP Life Skills Course got off to a promising start, with four new course members and a strong team of helpers. As is often the case, not everyone was able to attend every session and one person dropped out, but otherwise it was a successful course with opportunities to set goals; share knowledge, practical tips and ideas; join in with quizzes, games and role‐play; cook a meal together and celebrate achievements at the end of the course. Two course members had no Christian faith and it was a privilege to be able to share Christian love, fellowship and prayer with them and bless them with Christmas hampers.

Craft Group

Following the pandemic closure the craft group has resumed on Tuesday mornings and has grown! There are usually at least ten of us now – most bring their knitting but there is also a smattering of crochet and cross stitch! We have continued to make items for Baby Basics but this year we also completed a group project of a dressing gown made of over 100 knitted squares

– although we did them mostly in strips to save sewing up! Wider Mission We continue to offer prayer and financial support to Christian mission in the UK and overseas, including BMS World Mission through which we made significant gift for the ongoing crisis in Ukraine. We are also provide ministry support to local churches and chapels in our part of the county.

Financial Review

Review of the charity’s Para 1.21 The life and finances of Mount Pleasant in 2022 financial position at the end continued to be affected by the after effects of of the period the pandemic. However, there were definite signs of improvement arising from an increase in giving from the Church family. The net result of this was that it was necessary to transfer £4,700 from the cash reserve and £7,040 from the legacy fund into the general fund to support day‐ to‐day outgoings.

Setting aside the restricted and designated funds, the overall financial assets (excluding property) of the Church decreased by about £10,200 compared to the previous year. At the end of the year the Manse mortgage liability stood at £14,030, having reduced by £1,973 in 2022. The Trustees take their responsibility of stewardship very seriously, as we seek to tailor outgoings in line with expected income. However, we never forget that we are a local expression of the body of Christ motivated by faith and love, and we see God working to build His kingdom in and around Mount Pleasant and beyond. These annual accounts are about more than just finance. At the start of the year, the projected figures were looking bleak; we give thanks to God for His faithful provision, not least through the faithfulness of His people, resulting in the church finishing the year with money in the bank.

General fund

This is the working fund of Mount Pleasant. It provides for its day to day finances. During 2022 there was an increase in gifts and offerings receipts of around £4,100 into the fund. However, even with the transfers from the cash reserve and the legacy fund, the net general fund income reduced by around £17,300. There was a reduction in expenditure of around £14,200 compared to 2021, which helped to alleviate the situation. This was due in part to specific cost reduction measures, including reducing gifts from the general fund to the missionary organisations that Mount Pleasant supports. Cash reserve

In previous years, surpluses have meant that the cash reserve had built up to £20,000.

However, due to the necessity to call upon the cash reserve in 2022 and in the previous year, at the end of 2022 it stood at only £9,927. During 2023, the aim is to make regular transfers from the general fund to restore the cash reserve. A cash reserve is needed to dip into during the year to even out cashflows, as well as to meet unexpected and unusual expenditure.

7

Benevolent fund
The benevolent fund is intended mainly for the
benefit of Church members in financial
need. Its only income is giving from Church
members. During 2022, the fund provided gifts
to individuals amounting to £1,112. This fund
provided gifts totalling £8,382 to various mission
activities mainly outside of the Church’s
immediate geographical area. The total gifts
made during 2022 were higher than for 2021,
due to increased giving from the Church family,
especially as a response to the BMS Ukraine
appeal which raised £2,732. Gifts to BMS World
Mission from the missionary and donations fund,
together with gifts from the general fund,
excluding the Ukraine appeal, amounted to
£3,450. This was significantly lower than in 2021.
Gifts to BMS Home Mission, together with gifts
from the general fund, amounted to £2,700,
which again, was significantly lower than for the
previous year.
Legacy fund
A total of £7,040 was transferred from the
Legacy Fund to the General Fund to pay for
various items of expenditure.
CAP Client Support fund
This fund facilitates the material help that the
Church family provides for folk that the CAP
Centre works with. During 2022, it provided
£2,456 worth of help, including for emergency
food and energy payments and for Christmas
hampers.
Statement explaining the
policy for holding reserves
stating why they are held
Para 1.22 Reserves are needed to cover unexpected
changes in income and expenditure so that,
where possible, resources are sufficient to meet
commitments, so that the Church can continue
to meet its Mission Priorities. Our policy is not to
maintain excessive reserves unless for a capital
project. We have a reserves policy in place and
we currently hold currently hold £9,927.
Reasons for not holding a large reserve are as
follows.

It is recognised that the church has managed
well enough in the past on low reserves.

To build up large reserve would be at the
expense of our Mission Priorities. It is our
view that holding large reserves would mean
retaining capital that should instead be used
for our Mission Priorities. The Charity
Commission recognise that many charities
can properly demonstrate the need for a
greater level of reserves than they actually
hold, but the acquisition of reserves should
not be a greater priority than fulfilling the
other charitable objects of the church. While

8

the Charity Commission are anxious that
charities should have sufficient reserves to
possibly allow their affairs to wind down in
an orderly manner, they are particularly
anxious that charities do not hold excessive
reserves since that is storing away money
that should properly be used for furthering
the charitable objects of the charity. What
the Charity Commission requires is that the
Trustees recognise the issue, assess the
needs of the charity, plan to reach an
appropriate level in an appropriate
timescale, and report their reserves policy in
the annual report accompanying the
accounts.
Having considered these factors alongside a
detailed analysis of possible reserve
requirements, we recognise that even though
the need of a reserve of £33,000 might be
demonstrated, it is unrealistic to achieve this in
the short term because achieving would be at
the expense of our mission priorities. The church
currently holds some reserves and the Trustees
recognise that ideally this might be increased if
resources allow.

Section C Notes to the accounts (cont)

Note 2 Accounting policies 2.2 INCOME

This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.

Recognition of income
Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations
when receivable.
Support costs
The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.
Volunteer help
Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the
expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income
from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance
sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading
activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading
activities'.
Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets
and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.
The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described
in the trustees’ annual report.
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
 the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
ꞏ it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and
 the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Donated goods
Contractual income and
performance related
grants
Offsetting
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required
or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.
Grants and donations
Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income
recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).
This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or
services or met the performance related conditions.
Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be
exchanged) unless impractical to do so.
In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent
that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant
only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP).
Legacies
Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has
been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in
the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the
charity or have been met.
Government grants
The charity has received government grants in the reporting period
Tax reclaims on
donations and gifts
Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor.
Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is
treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the
terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as
income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate
heading in the SOFA.
The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be
the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt.
In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an
expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution.
Donated services and
facilities
Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of
the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably.
Income from interest,
royalties and dividends
This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can
be measured reliably.
Income from membership
subscriptions
Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations
and Legacies.

Settlement of insurance Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other claims income in the SoFA. This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and Investment gains and losses any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year.

2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES

Liability recognition Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or
constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the
obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
Governance and support
costs
Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support.
Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its
compliance with regulation and good practice.
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost
categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs
by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
Grants with performance
conditions
Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific 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
performance conditions
Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to
realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must 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.
Creditors The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade
discounts
A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently
Provisions for liabilities measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the
reporting date
Basic financial
instruments
The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per
paragraph 10.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17
to 11.19, FRS102 SORP.
2.4 ASSETS

use by charity
These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least
They are valued at cost.
The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.2.
Intangible fixed assets The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have
physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody
or legal rights. The amortisation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.5
They are valued at cost.
Heritage assets The charity has heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic,
scientific, technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held and
maintained principally for their contribution to knowledge and culture. The depreciation
rates and methods used as disclosed in note 9.6.1.4.
They are valued at cost.
Investments Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are
valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year
end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be
measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment.
Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a
maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments
Stocks and work in Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net
progress realisable value.
Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value
based on the service potential provided by items of stock.
