Day-to-day activities are delivered by volunteers and ministry leaders, with trustees providing oversight and accountability.

3. OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Charitable Purpose

New Vision Ministries exists to advance the Christian faith and promote community wellbeing for the public benefit. Our work is delivered from our office in Bolton and extends across Greater Manchester and throughout the United Kingdom.

Advancement of the Christian Faith

We deliver teaching, pastoral care, discipleship, prayer gatherings, and community outreach. These activities promote spiritual wellbeing, moral development, and hope. Our Christian faith activities are run couple times a week mainly Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sundays. Ladies in our Church meet on Tuesday nights for their teaching and Prayer sessions, The whole community meets on Thursday nights for midweek teachings and prayers mainly run on zoom and our YouTube channel, Saturdays are for departments meetings and worship teams practice sessions. Sundays all members meet for live Worship made of: Singing, teaching, prayer and fellowship. Services include sessions for adults and children including counselling sessions. We have run these programs every week without fails and they have been very successful in helping us achieve our objectives. We have run sessions specific for ladies, married couples, Youth and Men which have become very popular as in these groups we have realised that people are freer to express themselves in their specific groups as compared in mixed groups. This year we have been able to organise and run successfully 214 events some in small groups, others medium but others larger events.

Promotion of Social Inclusion

We have supported individuals who lived in isolation mainly elderly adults and brought them into a community that care about them and help them feel part of a family that think about them and care about their health and wellbeing. We have welcomed refugees and asylum

seekers in our community to help them feel welcome and loved and help them integrate in this new society they now live in. We have welcomed international students who can easily get lost and helped them find primary services they need through a community that love and care about them. Our programmes provide safe spaces for connection, support, and participation. New Vision Ministries welcome people from different backgrounds and make them feel part of this growing community that values everyone equally. Among our community we do have many people who are unemployed but once they join our community, they are treated equally to everyone else including those who are well off and who can afford to make some donation for the functioning of our charity. As a community we are pleased to make a difference in someone else life regardless of their background, their age, race, political opinion as we serve with love inherited from the Love of our Lord and Saviour Christ.

Our community identifies those in need and provides them with the support they need depending on what we can afford but we do receive positive feedback from those who receive our support and guidance on how helpful our community has been serving them, and we aim to keep doing the same as it is making a difference in people’s life. Some of the support that we provide is not necessarily financial but emotional, psychological and spiritual, signposting them to organisations best equipped to best support them such as employment agencies, housing association and agencies in general and so forth.

Intercultural Events

We organise events that bring together people from diverse backgrounds to celebrate different cultures, share experiences, and build unity. In most of our events we celebrate and learn from our diversity and cultures in that representative of different communities get the chance to share stories about their culture including main meal preferences and they often bring samples for others to appreciate the taste and appreciate. We want to continue to run these events to help all communities come together to appreciate each other’s difference while promoting mutual acceptance regardless various background and upbrings and culture as Britain is a multicultural society where discrimination is not tolerated.

Learning Spaces for Children and Young People

We provide educational support, mentoring, and positive role modelling for children and young people from disadvantaged backgrounds. We have run sessions that encourage young people to focus on their education as it is a key to their success and to better serve this great Nation that has welcomed them and gave them the opportunity to access world class education.

I report to the Charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 1st April 2024 which consists of the statement of financial activities, balance sheet and the related notes

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act') Having satisfied myself that the financial statements of the Charity 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 financial statements 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 section145(5) (b) of the 2011 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 (other than that disclosed below *) which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:

the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or

the accounts did 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.

the financial statements 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.
