activities, projects or
services identified in the
accounts.|Para 1.17 and

From time to time, the Charity may also
provide funds to support members of the
church family at Emmanuel Church,
Tolworth in activities which help advance
the Christian gospel, such as Christian
training and short-term mission trips, but it
did not do so in 2022.| |Statement confirming

Commission on public
benefit|Para 1.18|The trustees have had due regard to the
public benefit guidance issued by the
Charity Commission, in particular the
guidance on charities for the advancement

duties to which the guidance is relevant.| ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: ||SORP reference|| |---|---|---| |Policy on grant making|Para 1.38|The Charity has a policy on grant-making.| |Policy on social investment
including program related
investment|Para 1.38|The Charity has not adopted a policy on
social investment because its current
activities are limited in nature, and it does

investment.| |||| |---|---|---| |Contribution made by

which was carried out by the two
volunteers: the treasurer and the Gift Aid

into an agreement with The Emmanuel
Church Tolworth Ministry Fund (formerly
registered as a charity under number
1103843) relating to the transfer of assets,
liabilities and activities from it to the
Charity. (Prior to the execution of this
agreement – in the latter part of 2020 –
most of the practical matters regarding the
transfer of these assets and operations to
the Charity had been arranged.)
On 15 September 2022, The Emmanuel
Church Tolworth Ministry Fund was merged
with the Charity, with the surviving entity
being the Charity. This was recorded in the
Charity Commission’s Register of Mergers.| ## **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|The Charity’s sole employee in 2022 was
the Children’s and Youth Minister, who

objectives set|Para 1.41|During the period, the Charity continued to
achieve its aim of helping to advance the
Christian faith through the employment of
the Children’s and Youth Minister, who
carried out his ministry duties at Emmanuel
Church, Tolworth.| |---|---|---| |Performance of fundraising
activities against objectives
set|Para 1.41|The Charity’s only objective for fundraising
was to try to maintain income on a par with
expenditure, other than for exceptional
items. In this respect, it succeeded, with
receipts slightly exceeding payments.| |Investment performance
against objectives|Para 1.41|The Charity did not set specific objectives
in regard to investment performance owing
to the relatively low levels of financial
reserves.| |Other||| ## **Financial Review** |**Financial Review**||| |---|---|---| |Review of the charity’s
financial position at the end
of the period|Para 1.21|The accounts show that the Charity
received income in the period of £64,567,
versus payments of £60,367, giving a net
increase of cash funds in the period of
£4,200.
The main outgoings of the Charity were the
salary of the employee, and the cost of
accommodation for the employee and his
family which the Charity provides for the
better performance of his duties.
At the end of the period, the Charity held
unrestricted cash funds of £70,473,
composed of the following amounts:
•
£59,973 cash in bank accounts;
•
£10,500 in rent deposit and
prepayment.
The Charity also holds a long-term lease on
a property at Flat 1, 444 Ewell Road,
London KT6 7EL which is shown on the
balance sheet at a cost of £191,618.| |Statement explaining the
policy for holding reserves
stating why they are held|Para 1.22|The Charity’s reserves policy directs
trustees to deploy its financial resources to
further the Charity’s objects and not to
hoard cash, whilst also seeking to set aside
funds when possible to safeguard the
Charity’s ability to further its objects in
harder financial times.| |Amount of reserves held|Para 1.22|At the end of the period, £59,973 was held
as unrestricted cash in bank accounts.
All the available reserves were held in cash
owing to the relatively small absolute
amount, uncertainty over future giving to
the Charity (one-off gifts accounted for
nearly one third of the income), and lack of
attractive alternative short-term investment
options given low interest rates.| |Reasons for holding zero
reserves|Para 1.22|N/A| |Details of fund materially in
deficit|Para 1.24|N/A: the Charity had a positive net income
of £4,200 in the period.| |Explanation of any
uncertainties about the
charity continuing as a going
concern|Para 1.23|Owing to the amount of cash held in bank
accounts and the forecast income and
expenditure, the trustees do not deem
there to be uncertainty about the Charity
continuing as a going concern for at least
the following 12-month period, and expect
the Charity to be able to continue its current
scope of operations for at least another 2
years despite one-off gifts accounting for
nearly one third of income in the period.| 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. ||||The trustees monitor the Charity’s financial

You may choose to include further statements where relevant about:||| |The charity’s principal
sources of funds (including
any fundraising)|Para 1.47|81% of the Charity’s funding in 2022 came
from charitable giving and tax refunds from
Gift Aid giving. Of this, just under half was
from one-off gifts.
Nearly all of the other income was rental
income, plus a very small amount of
interest income.| |Investment policy and
objectives including any
social investment policy
adopted|Para 1.46|The charity has a reserves policy but not an
investment policy because the amount of
investable assets (i.e. cash) has been
considered by the trustees to be too small
to consider investing beyond an instant-
access savings account.
The Charity holds a long-term lease on the
property at Flat 1, 444 Ewell Road in
Surbiton. This was originally purchased to
provide accommodation to employees of
the Charity for the better performance of
their duties. The property is too small to
accommodate the Charity’s current
employee and his family, so the property is
let to tenants to provide a rental income to
the Charity. The trustees intend to
continue to hold this property to benefit
from the rental income, and to be in a
position to provide accommodation to
potential future employees.| |A description of the principal
risks facing the charity|Para 1.46|The Charity’s principal risk in 2022 was
liquidity risk given its relatively limited cash
reserves, and uncertainty around the level
of financial income going forward given that
a substantial proportion of income was from
one-off gifts which may not be repeated in
the future.| |Other||| ## **Structure, Governance and Management** |Description of charity’s
