FINANCIAL REVIEW

The income of the charity is above £33,000 and was from donations received from members. The church used a lot of this to cover the rent of its building and payment for pastoral services where ongoing support was provided for parishioners. The church is an ongoing concern. This year they had a reasonable surplus at the end of the financial year.

This provides sufficient funds to cover any emergency expenditures that may arise from time to time. The charity will seek to build up and maintain this level throughout the year.
