**Ombersley Church Houses Charity** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31st March 2022** 

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st March 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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). 

## **CHANGE IN LEGAL STRUCTURE** 

The CIO was incorporated on 30 October 2020. 

On 1 April 2021 the trade and net assets of the old unincorporated charity (charity number 1192091) was transferred over to the CIO of the same charity number. 

These financial statements have been prepared using merger accounts, on the basis that other than the change in legal structure there has been no changes to either the trustees or the activities of the charity. 

The first financial period of the new CIO was 30 October 2020 to 31 March 2022. However the CIO did not trade for the period between 30 October 2020 and 31 March 2022. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

The income of the Charity shall be applied in keeping the properties of the Charity in good repair, to make donations for repair of the Parish Church of Ombersley and for any other charitable purposes at the discretion of the Trustees. 

The principal activity of the Charity in the year under review was that of the ownership and management of Church Houses in Ombersley. 

## **Public benefit** 

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in Section 17(5) of the 2011 Charities Act to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Charity Commission when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

The results for the year and financial position of the Charity are as shown in the annexed financial statements. The Charity has undertaken expenditure of £5,945 (2021 - £9,997) during the year on the repair and refurbishment of its properties. The Charity has also donated, in accordance with long established precedent, £12,000 (2021 - £12,000) to the Church of St Andrew's, Ombersley. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

Total incoming resources for the year were £54,620 (2021 - £51,229) and total resources expended were £25,908 (2021 - £33,702). The net incoming resources before net gains/losses on revaluation of investments for the year were £28,712 (2021 - £17,527). 

## **Principal funding sources** 

The charity's principal funding source is rent from its freehold properties. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The general unrestricted reserves were £140,317 (2021 - £111,605). The reserves are held to support administration and overhead costs and to act as back-up should any project need funding. The intention is that reserves should be maintained to finance twelve months administration and overhead costs. Unrestricted income is expendable at the discretion of the Trustees in the direct furtherance of the objects of the Charity and may be held to finance both working capital and capital investment. Other funds are specifically restricted. 

The freehold properties have been treated as a permanent endowment fund in the financial statements. As part of the general charitable activities of the Charity, these properties may, at the discretion of the Trustees, be let at less than open market rent. Subject to this, it is the policy of the Trustees to invest the funds of the Charity with security and safety being the main criteria, subject to which a reasonable market return is to be the secondary objective. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document** 

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust and constitutes a charitable incorporated organisation. The charity registered as a charitable incorporated organisation on the 30th October 2020. These financial statements have been prepared under merger accounting, incorporating the results of the predecessor unincorporated charity of the same name.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Ombersley Church Houses Charity** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Ombersley Church Houses Charity** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Ombersley Church Houses Charity (the CIO) for the year ended 31st March 2022. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the CIO you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). 

I report in respect of my examination of the CIO's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **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 giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the CIO as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do 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.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31st March 2022** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **BASIS OF PREPARING THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, 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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets. 

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied at all years presented unless otherwise stated. 

The accounts are prepared in Sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these statements are rounded to the nearest £. 

These financial statements have been prepared under merger accounting. The financial results (including the comparative figures) of both the CIO and its predecessor unincorporated charity have been presented within these financial statements as though they had always been part of the same reporting charity. The carrying amount of assets and liabilities of the combining charities have not been restated to fair value. 

The first financial period of the new CIO was 30 October 2020 to 31 March 2022. However under merger accounting (and as the CIO did not undertake any trading activities until 1 April 2021) the financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the financial year is for the period 1 April 2021 to 31 March 2022. 

## **INCOME** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **EXPENDITURE** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, 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 accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

Grants payable include those grants approved by the trustees and in accordance with the charity's objects. Grants may be payable to the Parish Church of Ombersley and to any other charity at the discretion of the trustees. 

## **TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS** 

The trustees consider that the provision for depreciation should be at nil percent on freehold buildings as the properties are subject to a programme of repairs designed to maintain the buildings to a high standard. 

Expenditure is only capitalised when it exceeds £500. 

## **INVESTMENT PROPERTY** 

Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities. 

Assets under construction are not revalued until construction has been completed. 

## **TAXATION** 

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities. 

## **FUND ACCOUNTING** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements - continued for the Year Ended 31st March 2022** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued** 

## **FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS** 

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. 

Financial instruments are recognised when the charity becomes party to contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial assets are offset, with the net amount presented in the accounts where there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

## **Basic Financial Assets** 

Basic financial assets, which include trade and other receivables, cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. 

## **Basic Financial Liabilities** 

Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other payables, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of future receipts, discounted at a market rate of interest. Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. 

Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of the operations from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognised initially at transaction cost.

## **15.** 

## **RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES** 

There were no related party transactions for the year ended 31st March 2022 and the year ended 31st March 2021. 

## **16. CHARITY COMMISSION RE-REGISTRATION** 

In 1960 The Charities Act introduced the register of charities, giving the Charity Commission powers to investigate charities. Charities were required to join the register at this point, however former trustees' of Ombersley Church Houses failed to do so. Therefore Charity Commission were unaware of the charitable organisation's existence. 

The trustees' believe that Ombersley Church Houses have continued to comply with the duties set out in the 2011 Charities Act, meeting the organistation's charitable aims and objectives. 

The trustees successfully re-registered Ombersley Church Houses' charitable status with the Charity Commission on the 30th October 2020. In re-registering the charity, the status of the charity changed from being an unincorporated charity to a Charitable Incorporated Orgainsation (CIO) with the same name. The registration number of the CIO is 1192091. The CIO had no financial activity prior to this merger and the financial results of the unincorporated charity have not changed as a result of this merger. 

## **17. MERGER ACCOUNTING** 

Merger accounting has been applied from 30 October 2020 between the unincorporated Ombersley Church Houses charity and the charitable incorporated organisation with same name and registration number 1192091. 

The first financial period of the new CIO was 30 October 2020 to 31 March 2022. 

The split of SOFA activities for the year ended 31 March 2021 between before and after the date of the merger was as follows: 

||Pre-merger|Post-merger|Total|
|---|---|---|---|
||£|£|£|
|Income|28,162|23,067|51,229|
|Expenditure|(12,804)|(20,898)|(33,702)|
|Gains/losses on investments|(14)|(15)|(29)|
|||||
|Net movement in funds|15,344|2,154|17,498|

## **Notes to the Financial Statements - continued for the Year Ended 31st March 2022** 

## **17. MERGER ACCOUNTING - continued** 

The CIO has an accounting policy of measuring Tangible Fixed Assets at cost less depreciation. It is retroactively applying the first time adoption exemption within FRS 102 to use the valuation closest to the date of conversion to FRS 102 as deemed cost. The previous unincorporated charity had an accounting policy to revalue Tangible Fixed Assets annually and as a result the net book value of Tangible Fixed Assets was higher in its financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2020 than the figure shown above.
