Jehovah Jireh House of Prayer
TRUSTEES REPORT for the year ended 31 March 2025.
The Trustees are pleased to present their report and the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out on page 7 and comply with the charity's trust deed and applicable law.
Constitution and objects
The charity's object is to advance the Christian faith in accordance with the Statement of Faith throughout England & Wales for the benefit of the public mainly but not exclusively through the holding of services, raising awareness of religious beliefs and practices, religious education, outreach and pastoral care.
Financial review and investment policy
The unrestricted fund of the charity generates income which is used for the furtherance of the objects of the charity. There are no restrictions on the charity's power to invest. The investment strategy is set by the trustees and is reviewed annually.
Reserves policy
It is the policy of the charity to maintain all funds at a sufficient level to meet fluctuating demands. The unrestricted fund which comprises the free reserves of the charity were maintained at a sufficient level throughout the year to cover eventualities such as additional administration and support costs.
Risk Management
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.
Trustees' responsibility in relation to the financial statements
Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity's financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements, and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue its operations.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE Jehovah Jireh House of Prayer FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 March 2025.
I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31 March 2025, which are set out on pages 5 to 8.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of accounts; you consider that the audit requirement of section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 does not apply. 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
This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with the Charities Act 2011. My independent examiner's report has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity's trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's trustees as a body, for my independent examiner's work, for this report, or for the statement I have given.
Basis of independent examiner's report
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
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the Act have not been met; or
-
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
