## **Financial Review** 

|**Financial Review**|||
|---|---|---|
|Review of the charity’s<br>financial position at the end<br>of the period|Para 1.21|The accounts show that the Charity<br>received income in the period of £53,286,<br>of which £18,012 was a transfer of funds<br>from The Emmanuel Church Tolworth<br>Ministry Fund.<br>The main outgoings of the Charity were the<br>salary of the employee, and the cost of<br>accommodation for the employee and his<br>family which the Charity provides for the<br>better performance of his duties.<br>Overall, the Charity had a net income<br>deficit over the period of £7,022.<br>At the end of the period, the Charity held<br>unrestricted funds of £66,273, composed of<br>the following amounts:<br>•<br>£52,523 cash in bank accounts;<br>•<br>£3,250 in tax recovery;<br>•<br>£10,500 in rent deposit and<br>prepayment.<br>The Charity also holds a long-term lease on<br>a property at Flat 1, 444 Ewell Road,<br>London KT6 7EL which is shown on the<br>balance sheet at a cost of £191,618.|
|Statement explaining the<br>policy for holding reserves<br>stating why they are held|Para 1.22|The Charity’s reserves policy directs<br>trustees to deploy its financial resources to<br>further the Charity’s objects and not to<br>hoard cash, whilst also seeking to set aside<br>funds when possible to safeguard the<br>Charity’s ability to further its objects in<br>harder financial times.|
|Amount of reserves held|Para 1.22|At the end of the period, £52,253 was held<br>as unrestricted cash in bank accounts.<br>All the available reserves were held in cash<br>owing to the relatively small absolute<br>amount, and uncertainty over future giving<br>to the Charity, and lack of attractive<br>alternative short-term investment options in<br>the low interest rate environment.|
|Reasons for holding zero<br>reserves|Para 1.22|N/A|
|Details of fund materially in<br>deficit|Para 1.24|N/A: cash reserves were positive, while the<br>Charity had a net income deficit of about<br>£7k in the period.|
|Explanation of any<br>uncertainties about the<br>charity continuing as a going<br>concern|Para 1.23|Owing to the amount of cash held in bank<br>accounts and the forecast income and<br>expenditure, the trustees do not deem<br>there to be uncertainty about the Charity<br>continuing as a going concern for at least<br>the following 12-month period, and expect|





the Charity to be able to continue its current scope of operations for at least another 2-3 years. The trustees monitor the Charity’s financial situation closely, and will take appropriate actions with respect to contractual cost commitments well in advance of reserves being exhausted. 

**Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: 

|The charity’s principal<br>sources of funds (including<br>any fundraising)|Para 1.47|A principle source of funds of the Charity in<br>the period was a transfer of assets with a<br>value of £18,012 from The Emmanuel<br>Church Tolworth Ministry Fund.  Although<br>such a transfer of assets will not be<br>repeated going forward, the type of funds<br>received in that transfer are all now being<br>paid directly to the Charity.<br>Looking at the sources of funds directly to<br>the Charity and to The Emmanuel Church<br>Tolworth Ministry Fund together (which<br>were received in the period and<br>subsequently transferred to the Charity in<br>the period):<br>•<br>£32,693 came from charitable<br>giving, of which £10,680 were one-<br>off gifts.<br>•<br>£13,200 was rental income.<br>•<br>£7,595 was tax refunds<br>plus a de minimis amount of interest and<br>other income.|
|---|---|---|
|Investment policy and<br>objectives including any<br>social investment policy<br>adopted|Para 1.46|The charity has a reserves policy but not an<br>investment policy because the amount of<br>investable assets (i.e. cash) has been<br>considered by the trustees to be too small<br>to consider investing beyond an instant-<br>access savings account.<br>The Charity does hold a long-term lease on<br>the property at Flat 1, 444 Ewell Road. This<br>was originally purchased to provide<br>accommodation to employees of the<br>Charity for the better performance of their<br>duties. The property is too small to<br>accommodate the Charity’s current<br>employee and his family, so the property is<br>let to tenants to provide a rental income to<br>the Charity.  The trustees intend to continue<br>to hold this property to benefit from the<br>rental income, and to be in a position to<br>provide accommodation to potential future<br>employees.|
||Para 1.46||





|A description of the principal<br>risks facing the charity||The Charity’s principal risk in 2021 was<br>liquidity risk given its relatively limited cash<br>reserves, and uncertainty around the level<br>of financial giving going forward.|
