Victory International Church UK - The Overcomers Registered number: 13154032 Directors' Report
The directors present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 January 2025.
Principal activities
We have an open-door policy and we deliberately invite as many people as possible in the community to become part of our parish. We proactively encourage members of the community in our immediate environment to visit and experience any of our services. We also extend invitations by advertisements and other means to invite people from the larger community to avail themselves of our offerings. Our services are designed to make every visit a pleasant experience and thereby create an environment where attendees will practice their faith through the learning of the scriptures, worship with music and rendering of prayers.
Whilst we throw our doors open to every member of the public in congruence with Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit, we have also designed inclusive programmes, whereby members of the community are encouraged to visit and have access to pastoral care. They are also able to take advantage of the opportunities provided to develop their faith in Jesus Christ.
Our commitment to our community
At Victory International Church, we are committed to responding to the Spiritual and Holistic wellbeing of our community. In furtherance of this, our programmes are designed to address crucial aspects of everyday life. Our vision is to be a beacon of hope and solutions to the challenges faced by society, hence our programmes are designed to uplift and empower members of the community.

Victory International Church UK - The Overcomers
Every other Saturday, members of the community, as directed by the local Job Centre attend the church property to collect ready packed uncooked food items and other household items. The resources for this community targeted programme are generously provided by members through regular donations. We use this opportunity to appreciate all those involved. Going forward, it is being contemplated to employ few hands to support the existing volunteers to ease the logistics of this programme.
Reserve Policy
Our current address is leased from Haringey Council and there are already suggestions that the lease may be ended before even the expiration of the recently renewed five-year term. Our objective is to save as much resources as possible to be used as a deposit to purchase a property for the use of the Charity.
Administration
The year in review has been eventful and impactful. We have made progress in our strategic objectives and we plan to do much more especially in the areas of community engagements.
Small company provisions
This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions in Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime.

1 Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (as applied to small entities by section 1A of the standard).
Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services. Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have transferred to the buyer. Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs.

Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulative depreciation and any accumulative impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life, as follows:
Freehold buildings over 50 years Leasehold land and buildings over the lease term Plant and machinery over 5 years Fixtures, fittings, tools and equipment over 5 years Debtors
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price), less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Loans and other financial assets are initially recognised at transaction price including any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.
Creditors
Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method.
Provisions
Provisions (ie liabilities of uncertain timing or amount) are recognised when there is an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that economic benefit will be transferred to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.
