Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2025 Continued

Review of the activties and future developments

The charity continued to strive to ensure the objectives of the charity are met.

This year we continued to meet the objectives of furthering the Christian faith and alleviating the suffering of the people generally irrespective of their race, background. We have also been successful in sharing the Christian faith and helping people develop biblical principles that build up self esteem enabling them to stay out of criminality and social vices and eventually enabling them to fulfil their purpose in life and live a happy productive life. The church is keen at providing stronger family ties and educating the youths.

In terms of donation, we supported some charities. We actively and strongly support the World Evangilical Mission, which aims at furthering the Christian faith all over the world. Anyone struggling to put food on the table are welcome to pick up a food bag containing different foodstuffs at the food bank organised by the charity.

This year, trustees consider that the performance of the parish has been satisfactory in terms of advancement of the Christian faith, helping the poor and in generating needed resources.

Volunteers

Many volunteers give up their time to help at the church, particularly at weekends and in the evenings. We are greatly indebted to these volunteers for their commitment and support.

Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Annual report and Financial Statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under the law the Trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). The financial statements are required by law to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the surplus or deficit of the charity for that period.

In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are requested to:

  1. Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently

  2. Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent

  3. State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommendable practice have been followed

  4. Subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements

  5. Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation

Independent Examiner’s Report

I report on the accounts of the church/charity for the year ended 31 March 2025, set out on pages 6 to 10

Respective responsibilities of the trustees and examiner

As described on pages 2 to 4 the trustees are responsible for the preparation of financial statements; and considers that the audit requirements of Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) do not apply and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsisblity to:

Basis of Independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination included a review of 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, seeks explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in a full audit and consequently I do not express an audit opinion of the view given by the accounts.

Independent examiner’s statement

  1. Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements - to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 41 of the 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

  2. To which, in my opinion attention should have been drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
