TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT (continued)
YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
Objectives and activities
The Objects are:
-
(i) the advancement of the Christian faith in accordance with the Basis of Faith, Doctrinal Distinctives and Ethical Statements, primarily, but not exclusively, within Bromsgrove and the surrounding neighbourhood; and
-
(ii) Such other charitable purposes as shall, in the opinion of the charity trustees, put into practice the Christian faith in accordance with the Basis of Faith, including but not limited to: the prevention and relief of need, hardship and sickness; the advancement of education; and the provision of facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation or other leisure time occupation of individuals who have need of such facilities by reason of their youth, age infirmity or disability, financial hardship or social circumstances with the object of improving their conditions of life
Our primary aim is to advance the Christian faith and our meetings include specific teaching (from the Holy Bible) to achieve this. A secondary aim is the relief of hardship or sickness and is one means of loving one's neighbour, as taught in the Bible. Weekly services and events are held for pensioners, adults, teenagers and children. All members of the public are invited to attend activities appropriate to their age groups, and we make no charge for attendance at these published services.
The teaching and ministry of the Church primarily in our locality promotes the ethical and moral standards of the Bible, in particular the command to love one's neighbour. This fosters harmony and good community relationships. Activities for various age groups including toddlers, children, teenagers, adults and the elderly are all part of the Church ministry and benefit to the public.
All sermons preached at our Church are available to church members, and members of the public, free of charge, on the church website www.welcomehallchurch.org
Achievements and performance
The Church continued a wide range of activities throughout the year, including regular Sunday services (with a continued live stream broadcast); children's and teenagers' activities; street evangelism; coffee mornings; toddlers' group; litter pick; and mid-week church meetings. By these varied means the Church continued to proclaim the gospel and teach the truth of the Bible in the locality throughout the year. We were pleased to see newcomers attending these events and new members joining the Church by transfer from other congregations. We are grateful to the team of volunteers who have freely given their time and energy to running our outreach activities. In accordance with our Safeguarding policy, we have continued our rolling programme of DBS-checking all staff and volunteers involved in children's work. During the year the Church made grants totalling over £12,000 to reputable Christian organisations to support direct gospel work in the UK, continental Europe and Asia and to provide relief in the UK, Asia and Ukraine. One of the trustees, Jeremy Brooks, acts as the Church's full-time pastor with primary responsibility for public preaching and teaching and for pastoral care. Gordon Robbins worked in a part-time capacity alongside Jeremy as associate pastor until August when he stepped down from this role and as a trustee. The trustees, who are also elders of the Church, met at least twice a month to review the activities and achievements of the Charity. The elders and deacons met monthly to consider the practical arrangements of all services and activities. In early 2024, the trustees agreed the appointment of Martin Leech as part time associate pastor and as a trustee of the Charity.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
1. General Information
The charity is a public benefit entity and a registered charity in England and Wales and is unincorporated. The address of the principal office is 34 Woodrow Lane, Catshill, Bromsgrove, Worcestershire, B61 0PU.
2. Statement of Compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the 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) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Charities Act 2011.
3. Accounting Policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.
Going concern
There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees to further any of the charity's purposes.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular future project or commitment.
Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure declared by the donor or through the terms of an appeal, and fall into one of two sub-classes: restricted income funds or endowment funds.

YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
3. Accounting Policies (continued)
Incoming resources
All income is included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured.
Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
| Freehold property | - | 2% straight line |
|---|---|---|
| Motor vehicles | - | 33% straight line |
| Equipment | - | 10% reducing balance |
Impairment of fixed assets
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.
Financial instruments
Financial instruments are classified and accounted for according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.
Defined contribution plans
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.
When contributions are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the end of the reporting date in which the employees render the related service, the liability is measured on a discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as an expense in the period in which it arises.
