Annual Report 2022 Catch the Fire, Farnborough Charity Registration number: 1189161
The Charity is a charitable incorporated organisation (CIO) governed by its foundation constitution document and registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales on 22[nd] April 2020. This is the third year of activity for the Charity.
Aims and Purposes
The objects of the CIO are religious worship, and Christian outreach and support in the Farnborough area, regionally and internationally.
Objectives in 2022
The main objective in 2022 was to build further on foundations that had been laid in the first two years of Catch The Fire Farnborough, and to transition the church to being a church that meets fully in-person. In addition, it was our aim to establish ministries that would both grow the church in spiritual maturity and simultaneously enable as many people as possible to utilise and step out in their giftings.
Achievements and performance
Catch The Fire, Farnborough (CTFF) enjoyed another year of encouraging growth during 2022, building on the foundations that had been laid during the first two years of the life of the Church. In many senses, 2022 was the first full year in which anything approaching normal life was able to be measured, as it was the first year without restrictions on gatherings, and so 2022 was an incredibly important year in establishing CTFF as a viable church for the postCovid era.
In order to cement the mandate of CTFF to be a family, the church held a delayed Christmas worship and social event in March 2022, at a Crondall Village Hall; this was hugely well received, well attended and proved to be a tremendous blessing to the fellowship. Further social events followed throughout the year (for example an Easter Celebration Event and a family day in June), both at Crondall and in other places, and each of these deepened the sense of belonging that many people express valuing in the church community. In addition, we sought to engage in evangelism, with events such as our Good Friday Outreach, and a Christmas Carols Event in the cinema.
In 2022, as CTFF became more established as a Church, many new initiatives were instigated, to enhance the life of the church, grow people in their faith, and to reach out to the community in Farnborough. During 2022 a Prayer Ministry Team was created, and members of the team were trained and equipped to minister to people in our Sunday Services. A Creatives Groups (CTF Creatives) was established in the early part of the year, to enable and encourage people to use their artistic abilities to express their worship in creative ways, through art, dance, crafts

etc, and this group has proved very popular. A number of conferences and events were made available to the church, either in house, or in conjunction with other churches. These include a “Father Heart Conference”, led by Wes and Sharron Boxall and Jason Christy (June 18-19); the “Thrive” ladies conference at Bournemouth CTF (July 2); a youth event with CTF Bournemouth Youth (July 8); and the entire church being invited to attend the “David’s Tent” worship conference in August – all of which engendered growth in our church.
By the middle of 2022 it became clear that the nature and needs of the Church had changed dramatically from our early on-line only existence, and so to adapt to the changing needs we took the decision to end the weekly Wednesday night Zoom meetings, despite their popularity and chose instead to create a network of Small Groups, where people could meet in person in homes on a fortnightly basis, to build family together and to be discipled by the leaders of the groups. These Small Groups began in September, and for the final quarter of 2022 proved invaluable.
Around the same time the Wednesday Zooms came to an end, it became clear that the School Hall was not going to be a viable venue for our Sunday gatherings for much longer, partly due to capacity, partly due to time limitations of the School only being available in the afternoons, and partly to do with the location. Therefore, in June we trialled a service at Vue Cinema in Farnborough, and felt it was such a good venue that from September 2022 this became our new home for our Sunday morning worship services.
During 2022 the Youth Ministry continued to grow, with new members joining the group, and investment in the young people not only through the weekly youth nights, but also through social evenings, a trip to Soul Survivor Youth Event and the introduction of a discipleship curriculum. In addition, in 2022 we introduced a Young Adults Group to encourage and grow the 18-30 year olds in the Church. In the Autumn, a new outreach initiative was started, in the form of a weekly 5-a-side football night, to which non-Christians were invited, in order to build relationship with the aim of sharing the Gospel in a relational manner.
One extremely exciting aspect of 2022 was the appointment of Samuel Bird to the Staff Team in April. CTF World had made us aware of grant money that was available for various uses within the CTF Global Family, and after much discussion it was agreed to appoint Samuel to a combined role, partly with CTF Farnborough and partly with CTF UK. Samuel’s role with CTF UK is to establish a Young Adults Collective, and his role with CTF Farnborough is to be an integral part of the Senior Leadership Team, to assist with the day to day running of the Church, and to contribute significantly to the preaching and teaching ministry of the Church. This addition to the team, has hugely strengthened and increased the capacity of the Leadership and has proved to be an invaluable blessing to the church.
CTFF has always had a vision to be more than purely a local church, and we have sought to invest heavily in the wider body of Christ during 2022, most especially by releasing members of the staff team to minister elsewhere. During the year some of the places we were able to send team to include: Lifehouse Church, Colchester; Yapton Free Church; Compassion UK (Weston-Super-Mare); The Yateley Minister’s Gathering; The Farnborough Ministers’ Lunches; Ealing Christian Centre (Kingdom Encounter Conference); London Awakening Conference (Capstone Church, London); Sunday worship at RIG Nation Church; Playing on mainstage at David’s Tent; Lion-Heart Conference (Isle of Wight); a CTF UK cluster retreat;

New River Church Conference, Edmonton; Elim Church, Princes Risborough; and a trip to lead Pastor’s Conferences in India.
Public benefit
The charity trustees have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Charity Commission in exercising their powers and duties.
Structure, governance and management
The Trustees (listed below) have continued to ensure due diligence in all matters relating to the management of CTFF, and the accountant (Christine Widdowson) who had previously been overseeing the financial management of the church, has in 2022 been appointed as a trustee. The remit of the Head of Finance includes oversight of payroll, PAYE, NI, Gift Aid and pension contributions for the staff team, as well as the daily financial management of income and expenditure. An independent financial examiner has again been appointed to aid us in 2022.
To ensure proper safeguarding, the trustees require all staff and any volunteers to have current DBS checks in place and an independent safeguarding body (called ‘Thirtyone.eight’) continue to provide these checks for us. A volunteer administrator continues to ensure GDPR / Safeguarding compliance.
The trustees meet at least quarterly and are in close contact with the Senior Leaders to ensure the good management and governance of the Church.

Reserves and Risk Management
It is the policy of the charity to build up and maintain unrestricted funds, which are the free reserves of the charity, at a level which equates to approximately three months’ unrestricted expenditure. This provides sufficient funds to cover management, administration and support costs. At the year-end this equated to approximately £48,459 compared to the actual general reserves of £19,116.
The trustees have considered the key operational, financial, and strategic risks that have a bearing on the charity. Suitable management information is available to the trustees on a regular basis to monitor these risks, and allow any mitigating action to be taken to address them.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES
Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its financial activities for that year. In preparing those financial statements the trustees are required to:
-
a) select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; b) make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
c) state whether the policies adopted are in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice, “Accounting and Reporting by Charities (effective January 2019)” and with applicable accounting standards, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
d) prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume the charity will continue operating.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud or other irregularities.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER TO THE TRUSTEES
We report on the financial statements for the year ended 31[st] December 2022 set out on pages 8 to 15.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
-
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
-
the accounts did not comply with the applicable 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.

Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. Investment income and gains are allocated to the appropriate fund.
Incoming resources
All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. No amounts are included in the financial statements for services donated by volunteers.
Resources expended
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category.
Support costs are apportioned to activity/project according to total costs of activities undertaken directly and grant funding of activities.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Assets are capitalised if they have a useful life of more than one year and a cost value greater than £100.
