## **CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
The chairman presents his statement for the year.
The arrival of COVID-19 in March 2020 marked the beginning of an extremely difficult for the world and Church. The last two years have been the most difficult and challenging years in the history of the church.
During this financial year, church life and activities returned to normal as soon as the government withdrew pandemic legislation in July. Up to that point our services and activities were all COVID-19 compliant. We socially distanced, face coverings were obligatory, we adopted a one-way system and hand washing and sanitisation points were available throughout the building.
“In-person” Church services were held at Sherwood Drive in New Ollerton and at Church Warsop. Most people returned to church, but many did not attend as frequently as before the pandemic. Therefore, Sunday service attendance declined somewhat. Our Service continued to go out on “Facebook Live”. The congregation in Church Warsop suffered the most, and Sunday meetings were discontinued at the end of the accounting period with the aim of starting a new congregation as soon as conditions were more favourable again.
All the groups who had rented the Centre returned and we managed to secure some funding from Nottinghamshire County Council to incentivise groups to come back. The Oasis Café reopened in October 2021 when it was safe again. During the pandemic we decided to convert the café from a trade-only café to a training café for people with special needs. We had five students in training, two paid members of staff and eight volunteers.
Our aim this year has been to help those in need in our community by continuing to run a food bank (CAR Project) and working with councils, schools, local community groups and agencies. The project has a manager and eleven volunteers and is open on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The group from St Michael's Church, Farnsfield, have been brilliant in their support. We were funded for the year by Nottinghamshire County Council.
The leases for our two charity shops were renewed in June for six years, with a break every two years. Mike Phillips stepped down from the role of Senior Leadership and the role of Chairperson in June 2021. The Church Council established a procedure for the appointment of a new Senior Leader. The Council followed the procedure and carried out due diligence and I (Liz Phillips) was appointed as the new Senior Leader on 10 March 2021. I was formally inducted into my new role on 4 July 2021. The Church Council offered Mike the position of Assistant Minister.
I am pleased to report that the church was in a healthy position at the end of the accounting period. This is due to the fact that we have a number of revenue streams, all of which were brought back into operation when the government regulations were withdrawn. The Furlough scheme, the Sunday offerings, the income from Gift Aid, income from renting out the Centre and the income from the Charity shops all contributed to the church being in a stable position at the end of the accounting period. Furlough finished at the end of September 2021 and the Church was in a position to meet all its commitments.
I want to say a special thank you to all our volunteers who are the true “heroes” of the work we do.
E Phillips - Chairperson Date: 27 September 2022

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
The trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the company for the year from 1 April 2021 to 31 March 2022.

Since the company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.
## **Objectives and activities**

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## **Objectives and activities (continued)**
## **d. Volunteers**
The Church leaders recognise the wonderful contribution made by volunteers during the pandemic. They worked tirelessly and consistently during the lockdowns to make sure isolating people had food and someone to talk to on the telephone. They continue to fulfil this role now that the government restrictions have been lifted. These volunteers care about our community and want to make people’s lives better by sharing the love of God and meeting needs. They sacrifice their time, talents, and finances to do so. It is estimated that the Church benefited by hundreds of hours voluntary service each week during the pandemic and more than 70 volunteers were involved. These volunteer hours are invaluable and without them the Church would be greatly impoverished. Thank you very much.
These are the main areas they worked in:
- Stewarding and welcome
- Music team
- Various ministry teams – preaching, prayer, offering etc.
- Church Council, Planning; and
- Leading Virtual Pastoral Groups
Volunteers who worked for the CAR Project:
- Taking phone calls for help
- Procuring food
- Stock control
- Preparing food
- Packing hampers
- Delivering hampers
- Preparing autism and children’s activity packs
- Leading and managing the project
- Administration
## **Achievements and performance**
## **a. Main achievements of the company**
2021 - 2022, the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to our charitable purposes were: -
1. Community Action Response
The CAR project continues to respond to the impacts of COVID -19 that continue to be felt in the community. This project served towns and villages in North Nottinghamshire - all in our catchment area. The Methodist Food Bank, which had been a valuable resource for the community for ten years, closed. The CAR project continued to supply their clients. Nottinghamshire County Council and Coalfields Regeneration Trust provided funding. Food donations from the community were high and the project was able to meet the high demand.
This work provided food hampers for people in crisis due to the ongoing impact of COVID 19. It supported lonely, isolated people and people with mental health problems through telephone support and mental health packages in addition to food hampers. The project signposted to professional services when deemed necessary.
The project worked with up to 30 volunteers and distributed 70,000 meals between 1 April 2021 and 31 March

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## **Achievements and performance (continued)**
## 2022.
We received strong support from Nottinghamshire County Council and Coalfields Regeneration Trust, both of whom provided financial support. We were also supported by our local Councillor Mike Pringle, Ollerton Town Hall and local residents and organisations. In Warsop, support from Mansfield District Council and local councillors and organisations was very welcome.
## 2. Make Lunch
The Make Lunch project is a nationwide initiative that provides a free hot meal to children from low-income families during the school holidays. This project has been running at Lifespring since 2014. Families were unable to come to the Church Centre during COVID -19, but as the year progressed the situation normalised, and the project ran on Tuesdays at Church Warsop and Wednesdays at Ollerton. On the days that Make Lunch was open, an average of 25 children were looked after.
## 3. Christmas
In December 2021 we distributed 200 Christmas hampers to people in special circumstances. The ROB (Recycling Ollerton and Boughton) was a fantastic help in providing trucks and volunteers to deliver the hampers. Fifteen volunteers organised and packed all the hampers in one day.
## 4. Toys for Children
We worked in conjunction with #MissionChristmas to ensure that children in our local area who were referred by local organisations, received a toy and did not go without. We worked in partnership with local agencies such as Social Services, to ensure that the most vulnerable families were provided for.
## 5. Gas & Electric Payments
We continued to support several families with Gas and Electric grants donated by our Turnaround Charity shops.
## 6. Charity Shops (Turnaround)
Our two Charity shops opened when permitted to do so by Government guidelines. They provide donated quality goods at a very affordable price, especially for families on low incomes.
- The shops serve as a contact point for the community.
- They provide opportunities for people to serve the community.
- They create wealth for local and overseas causes.
The Trustees received regular reports concerning the performance of the shops and were very encouraged. The shops were able to continue to pay the rent and overheads during lockdown thanks to government grants from Newark and Sherwood District Council.
## 7. Community Cafe
Oasis Café Ollerton Limited is a subsidiary company of Lifespring Church and Centre. The Café is a training centre for people with learning disabilities and disadvantaged persons within a realistic working environment. The Cafe offers work placements and teaches skills in independent living.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## **Achievements and performance (continued)**
## Church Council Matters
During the year, the Church Council:
1. Carefully monitored the income and expenditure of the church at each meeting to ensure that the church remained sustainable during this difficult period.
2. Looked carefully at projected budgets and cash flow to make sure the Council was able to meet the salary levels agreed for employed staff.
3. Drew up contracts of employment for all four paid members of staff and agreed the salary levels for them.
4. Employed Mike Phillips as Associate Pastor on 16 hours per week and Sarah Troop in the café on 16 hours per week.
5. Agreed two new leases for the Charity shops.
6. Reviewed the COVID-19 risk assessment.
7. Liaised with Mansfield District Council about the possibility of an asset transfer of a disused Community Centre in Church Warsop and we reached an agreement in principle to buy the property for £1.00. We raised £3500 towards a feasibility study and paid an architect £735 for the pre-feasibility costs. However, news came through recently that the Centre was vandalised and burnt down. The project is on hold waiting to see what Mansfield District Council want to do.
8. Established a sub-committee to look especially at finances
9. Agreed a Financial Manual and Procedures document.
10. Agreed various donations to good causes from the profits of the Charity shops.
11. Agreed to have CCTV installed in our Charity shop at Clipstone.
12. Monitored Health and Safety and maintenance of all equipment.
## **b. Fundraising activities and income generation**
Lifespring Church and Centre is very careful and sensitive in how we raise funds. We do not employ or work with professional fundraisers, nor do we solicit donations on the street, via phone calls or letters. We invite those who are part of our church to support the work and where a person is not able to financially support the work we respect this.
## **Financial review**
## **a. Going concern**
After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the company 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. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.
## **b. Reserves policy**
The trust carries reserves sufficient to ensure that it has funds available to enable it to meet its aims and objectives. The trustees have examined the charity's requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. It has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity should be three months of expenditure. The reserves are needed to meet the working capital requirements of the charity and the Management Committee are confident that at this level they would be able to continue the current activities of the charity in the event of a significant drop in funding.

## **LIFESPRING CHURCH AND CENTRE**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## **c. Principal risks and uncertainties**
The company has adopted the policies of internal controls recommended in the Charity Commission's Booklet CCS "Internal Financial Controls for Charities" wherever possible, and relevant action is taken to address any risks that are highlighted.
## **Structure, governance and management**
## **a. Constitution**
Lifespring Church and Centre is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Memorandum of Association.
## **b. Methods of appointment or election of trustees**
The management of the company is the responsibility of the trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Memorandum of Association. New trustees are nominated by the existing trustees.
## **c. Organisational structure and decision-making policies**
During the year, Lifespring had one full time employed worker – the Pastor and a part time Assistant Pastor as well as an Administrator. When the café opened in October the Trustees employed a café manager. All other workers at Lifespring are volunteers and none of the volunteers received payment for running any of the mentioned groups.
## **d. Policies adopted for the induction and training of trustees**
The chair of the trustees is responsible for the induction of any new trustees. This involves awareness of trustee responsibilities, the governing document, administrative procedures, the history and philosophical approach to the organisation. A new trustee would receive a copy of the previous year's financial statements together with a copy of the Charity Commission leaflet "The Essential Trustee: What You Need To Know".
## **e. Pay policy for key management personnel**
The Trustees make recommendations for the salary scales for all staff and for specific salaries on those scales for senior staff. The Trustees give serious consideration to the recommendations made by the Assemblies of God salaries committee. The trustees consider the recommendations for any individuals in their absence.
## **f. Related party relationships**
The charity owns 100% of the issued share capital of Oasis Cafe Ollerton Limited, the trading subsidiary that was set up to provide the cafe facility at the church.
## **g. Financial risk management**
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the company is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the company, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## **Plans for future periods**
The charity will continue to serve the needs of the people of Ollerton and Warsop. The Leaders continue to steer the Churches to bring the congregations back together following the pandemic. We aim to relaunch small groups in September and take on a Families and Community worker as soon as possible. We will continue to expand the work of the Church, both spiritually and socially and we are looking particularly at developing further the work in Church Warsop.
I am delighted to be part of such a thriving and productive ministry and Church.
Every blessing in Christ,

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Lifespring Church and Centre ('the company')**
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 March 2022.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the trustees of the company (and its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the company's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or
4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)].
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.
This report is made solely to the company's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the company's trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's trustees as a body, for my work or for this report.

## **BALANCE SHEET (CONTINUED) AS AT 31 MARCH 2022**
The company was entitled to exemption from audit under section 477 of the Companies Act 2006.
The members have not required the company to obtain an audit for the year in question in accordance with section 476 of Companies Act 2006.
The trustees acknowledge their responsibilities for complying with the requirements of the Act with respect to accounting records and preparation of financial statements.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to entities subject to the small companies regime.
The financial statements were approved and authorised for issue by the trustees on 27 September 2022 and signed on their behalf by:
E Phillips (Chair of Trustees)
The notes on pages 13 to 34 form part of these financial statements.
Page 12
**LIFESPRING CHURCH AND CENTRE (a company limited by guarantee)**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## **1. Accounting policies**
## **1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: 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) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Lifespring Church and Centre meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
## **1.2 Going concern**
At the date of signing there is a degree of uncertainty about the economic impact of COVID-19. The trustees continue to monitor the position closely however they believe that the charity will maintain its current level of activity and they therefore continue to adopt the going concern basis.
## **1.3 Income**
All income is recognised once the company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Grants are included in the statement of financial activities on a receivable basis. The balance of income received for specific purposes but not expended during the period is shown in the relevant funds on the balance sheet. Where income is received in advance of entitlement of receipt, its recognition is deferred and included in creditors as deferred income. Where entitlement occurs before income is received, the income is accrued.
Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.
Other income is recognised in the period in which it is receivable and to the extent the goods have been provided or on completion of the service.
## **1.4 Expenditure**
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

**LIFESPRING CHURCH AND CENTRE (a company limited by guarantee)**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## **1. Accounting policies (continued)**
## **1.4 Expenditure (continued)**
Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the company to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
## **1.5 Interest receivable**
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the company; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.
## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation**
Tangible fixed assets costing £100 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following bases:
|Freehold property|- 2% straight line|
|---|---|
|Fixtures and fittings|- 20% or 1/3 straight line|
## **1.7 Investments**
Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the balance sheet date, unless the value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and presented as ‘Gains/(Losses) on investments’ in the statement of financial activities.
Investments in subsidiaries are valued at cost less provision for impairment.
## **1.8 Stocks**
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## **1. Accounting policies (continued)**
## **1.9 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.
## **1.10 Cash at bank and in hand**
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
## **1.11 Liabilities and provisions**
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 company 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.
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the statement of financial activities as a finance cost.
## **1.12 Financial instruments**
The company only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
## **1.13 Operating leases**
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the statement of financial activities on a straight line basis over the lease term.
## **1.14 Pensions**
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the company to the fund in respect of the year.

## **1. Accounting policies (continued)**
## **1.15 Fund accounting**
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the company and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the company for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
## **1.16 Concessionary loans**
The company has taken advantage of Section 34 of FRS102 to recognise loans to and from public benefit entities as concessionary loans. As such the company initially recognises and measures the loan at the amount receivable, in the balance sheet. In subsequent years, the carrying value is adjusted to reflect repayments and any accrued interest, where applicable and adjusted if necessary for any impairment.

This fund is unwound by transfers to the General Fund to reflect usage on an annual basis.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the company for particular purposes.
