OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Significant activities
This year has seen good progress in our activities as a Company and Charity. We have also seen our income and attendance grow significantly.
We have been able to use the premises for our church Truth Vine, regular prayer meetings and also to help people on a practical basis with seminars on how to set up and progress business and also with help on a spiritual basis.
We are however having our own premises built and it should be finished in the next financial year.
Truth Vine church very vibrant and increasing quickly. A great number of people have become more mature. We may have to move to two meetings each Sunday.
We ran some conferences and seminars in conjunction with Betty King International ministries. These meetings see many come along and we get very good reports on how the teaching helped.
We have a youth section which is in demand and we also have a section holding ladies meetings under the title "when strong women unite". These meetings are popular and powerful
We support an orphanage in Israel.
We also support a school in Kenya situated in the slum area Kibiri.
The prophetic school attracts a good number students from different churches and we are so blessed to have wonderful lecturers. We believe this helps many churches.
We are fully involved and active in the media having regular broadcasts and thus the ministry is able to reach out to a very wide audience.
We have a feeding programme which is aimed at those sleeping on the streets and it greatly appreciated by those in need.
A new venture is help in fostering children.
We continue to meet for prayer every Tuesday.
For the next financial year we expect the True Vine Church to grow.
We will continue our programme in Ghana and in particular a number of widows have been greatly helped.
Public benefit
Our public benefit included helping people set up in business and to get advice from top business people We helped people who were emotionally damaged

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of BETHSHAN FOUNDATION LTD
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of BETHSHAN FOUNDATION LTD ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 May 2025.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also 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 your charity's accounts as 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
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies.
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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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
-
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.
