## **TRUSTEES' REPORT**
The trustees present the annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025.
## **Structure, governance and management**
## _**Nature of governing document**_
Hope Church Network registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO), number 1182733, on 1 April 2019. The constitution was subsequently amended on 10 November 2023 to adapt the leadership structure to reflect the growth of the churches.
## _**Organisational structure**_
Hope Church Network contains within it two churches in East Hampshire, one in the village of Greatham and another in the town of Petersfield. The trustees of the CIO are drawn from the leadership of these churches. At least one elder and one deacon is appointed from each church as a trustee, along with a member trustee from each church. These trustees are also the Network Leadership Team, which exists to support the churches in their mission, to foster mutual sharing and strengthening, and to bring encouragement and input.
## _**Risk management**_
Advised by a risk sub-group, the trustees formally assess, review and keep a register of the major operational and financial risks that the charity is exposed to. Every trustee meeting includes a review of one or more risks and mitigatory measures identified by the sub-group.
## **Objectives and activities**
## _**Objects and aims**_
The Constitution of Hope Church sets out our charitable objects for the public benefit in three areas:
1. to advance the Christian faith in accordance with the Statement of Faith in such ways and in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the Trustees from time to time may think fit;
2. to relieve sickness and financial hardship and to promote and preserve good health by the provision of funds, goods or services of any kind, including through the provision of counselling and support in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the Trustees from time to time may think fit; and
3. to advance education in such ways and in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the Trustees from time to time may think fit.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)**
## _**Objectives, strategies and activities**_
These objects are, in part, met through the work of our various Mission Partners, whom we see as our fellow workers in God’s mission, and whom we are privileged to be able to support, particularly through prayer and finance. At home, it is our usual practice to meet our Objects in the following ways:
## _1. Advancing the Christian faith_
A core element in our Sunday morning gatherings is teaching from the Bible, both for adults and children. Teaching and Bible study also take place in our various midweek small groups and youth groups. One of our principal purposes in all we do is to reach out with the good news of Jesus to those outside the church, through personal conversations and occasional public events.
## _2. Relieving sickness and financial hardship etc_
We provide loving, practical help to those in need, and some financial support for individuals through our hardship fund. We support, both financially and through the practical help of members, our local food banks and a number of other local organisations which serve those in need.
## _3. Advancing education_
Education is a key feature of our church meetings, small groups and youth work. Our members also practically support the work of Prison Fellowship. We support, both financially and through the practical help of members, a number of other local organisations, which serve the education of people of all ages and stages in life.
## _**Public benefit**_
The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.
## **Achievements and performance**
The meetings of our two churches on Sunday mornings have been times of energetic growth and deepening relationships. Our numbers have also grown over the past few years. Our total membership at the year ending in March 2025 was 143, across the two churches.
The breadth of our expression of the Christian faith and our love for one another reflect the unusual diversity of our history, drawn from different religious communities to now worship together. In this, we have seen the exciting possibility of unique people drawn into unity with one another in an increasingly polarised world through hope in and devotion to Jesus Christ.
To meet the teaching, pastoral and practical needs of the church, as of March 31, 2025, we were employing Jon Piper and Phillip Johnston as full time elders and Alison Godfrey, as the Church Administrator, eighteen hours a week.

## **HOPE CHURCH NETWORK**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)**
The reason for all gatherings hosted by our churches, from Sunday morning meetings to midweek small groups, is to practise the Christian faith as a body of people. This includes teaching from the Bible, both for adults and children.
Within the year, our pastoral approach to the changing needs of our churches continued to develop. We experienced bereavement, poverty and mental health problems within the churches and more complex needs in the wider community. Elders and other members of the church continued to commit to meeting together with those in need, offering counsel, as well as practical help and caring in creative ways.
As our congregations have grown in recent years, so have the complexity of the needs encountered within and around them. In response, our use of the hardship fund has increased. This fund has been used to support a wide variety of individuals and families both inside and outside the membership of our churches.
In addition to the whole-church teaching provided on Sunday mornings, our young people and children are taught through the provision of small groups. These groups and activities were designed to develop knowledge and appropriation of the Christian faith for the children and young people in our community. Some of our young people also attended larger youth work events designed to help them develop in faith and connection to the wider church.
## **Financial review**
Income for the year amounted to £259,715 (2024: £223,802) and expenditure £225,031 (2024: £223,929). The General fund balance at the end of the year was £111,784 (2024: £75,420).
## _**Principal funding sources**_
Principal source of funds was giving by members and attenders of Hope Church.
## _**Policy on reserves**_
The policy of holding a Missions and Staffing Reserve was maintained during the year to cover 6 months’ expenditure for Mission and 3 months’ expenditure for Staffing and the balance was adjusted to reflect that at the end of the year. This Designated fund of £45,364 was held wholly in cash. No reserve/fund was in deficit at the year end and all other Restricted and Designated funds (totalling £10,614) were held wholly in cash.
## _**How expenditure supports key activities of the charity**_
A substantial proportion of our income was distributed to Mission Partners whom we judge to be advancing our aims in the UK and other parts of the world. At the end of the period, we were employing two full-time elders to ensure time was available for the promotion of the church’s main activities, including efficient administration, co-ordination of activities, and provision of information. We were also employing a part-time administrator (eighteen hours a week) to assist the Trustees in providing efficient administration. Other significant expenditure relates to the facilitation of our meetings and teaching activities.

## **HOPE CHURCH NETWORK**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)**
The church offered assistance for those of any age, but particularly younger people, attending training courses to develop their knowledge and skills in areas consonant with the aims and Statement of Faith of the church.
During the year, the church rented a building to provide space for church meetings, the paid workers and storage of materials and documents.
## _**Investment policy and objectives**_
Monies required for daily operations were held with CAF Bank in a mix of current and short-term deposit accounts. This enables ease of access to funds and a cautious attitude to risk. In addition to our accounts with CAF Bank, we also had two term deposit accounts with Shawbrook Bank to maximise income on these monies, within the security of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
## **Going concern**
After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF HOPE CHURCH NETWORK**
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Hope Church Network for the year ended 31 March 2025.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity trustees of Hope Church Network 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 Hope Church Network'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 Hope Church Network'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 Management Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies.
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 Hope Church Network as required by section 130 of the Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. 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.

## **HOPE CHURCH NETWORK**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 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**
Hope Church Network meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts.
## **Going concern**
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
## **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.
## _**Gift aid**_
Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the SOFA during the same period as the gift to which they relate.
## _**Interest receivable**_
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.
## **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 aggregate similar costs to that category.
Page 10
## **HOPE CHURCH NETWORK**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 (CONTINUED)**
## _**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.
## **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 £250 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**
Furniture and equipment
**Depreciation method and rate** 25% on cost
## **Debtors**
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
## **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.
## **Liabilities**
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
