In developing these objects the Trustees have had regard to the guidance from the Charity Commission on public benefit. In particular, we run programmes for young people in Children's Church (these are in 3 age groups, 3 - 6, 7 - 10 and 11 15 years), the youth (under 30) women (known as Victorious Ladies) and families.

We had in excess of 1300 congregants in allendance including children. Ladies Camp meeting in Chinhoyi, Zimbabwe - held in September of 2025. This was highly subscribed and we managed to send more than 100 women to the said conference. We also held 'Special Sunday Services" which are national events which tske place quarterly. At these events, Assemblies gather in one location for a church service, giving the opportunity for those who live far away from established Assemblies lo connect with the church.

As part of our youth development programme and also to support building Praise and Worship Teams, the church sponsored 10 teenagers to attend keyboard and drumming lessons. The aim is lo develop local talent in order lo meet the needs of the church, rather than depend on hired talent. Our sponsoring of the TV programme entitled "Life Central with Emmanuel Makandiwa" is continuing on a renewable annual contract, having started in January 2019. This programme is beamed every Monday evening from 7=30pm to 8pm on Faith World TV (SKY Channel 5881, which is one of the UK'S Christian Sky channels.

United Famil Intemational Church UK ort of the Trustees forthe Year Ended 31 October 2025 FINANCIAL REVIEW Prlnclpal fundlng sources The Church's principal Sour￿ of income was donations from congregants and online followers of the Ministry from within and without the United Kingdom. Total income for the accounting period was £822,680 and total expenditure was £663,028, leaving a surplus of £156,652. We have a total of £25,474 in restricted funds which are not available for use as general-purpose funds. We also have £500,000 in designated funds, which we have sel aside for the purchase of a building. We estimate that the church should be able lo save enough money lo pay a deposit and associated costs for the purchase of a building within a year or ￿0. Investment policy According to the Foundation Constitution, the trustees have power to deposit or invest funds, employ a professional fund-manager, arrange for the investments or other property of the Church lo be held in the name of a nominee, subject to the provisions of the Trustee A¢t 2000. Having considered the most appropriate policy for investing funds, the trustees have decided that funds invested in bank accounts currently meet the church's investment requirements. Reserves policy The reserves policy of the church follows the Charity Commission's guidelines, in particular,. To underpin the running of the church with six month's running costs Within the six months running costs identify those costs that will enable the church to meet ils obligations to fixed costs, in particular rentals, conlraclual obligations relating lo purchase of air time on the SKY channel Faith World TV and other direct debits. Presently the church has no staff costs as it does not have employees. As of 31st October 2025, six months, running costs of the Charity as described above are approximately £330,000. Unreslricled reserve levels are reviewed annually and monitored throughout the year. Principle risks and uncertainties The Iruslees have a risk management strategy that comprises.. Regular review of the risks the Church may face from time lo lime The establishment of systems and procedures that are designed to mitigate against identified risks The implementation of prO￿dureS designed lo minimise any potential impact on the Charity should those risks materialise. The principal risk and Un￿rtaIntieS facing the church include fluctuations in financial inflows and increased overheads. TrLJStees have a responsibility lo make sure that all expenditure is cost effective, especially where 18rge payments are involved. The largest proportion of payments go towards funding of national events, with the most significant one being the Special Weekend Service, which took place al the beginning of August 2025. It was an international church conference where one of the founders of the Ministry came to visit. Whilst the cost of hosting the event was significantly higher compared to that of other national events, its impact was huge as witnessed by the surge in attendance figures and increase in revenue inflows. Trustees believe that the church's marketing strategy using TV programmes, coupled with holding of "Special Sunday Services" has been highly successful. This has resulted in the growth of the church from a small to a large charity according to the charities SORP regulations. Page 3

United Famil Intemational Church UK ort of the Trustees forthe Year Ended 31 October 2025 PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS There are many opportunities for growth. UFIC (UK) will be embarking on the following programmes and projects as part of the growth strategy moving forward., Holding various workshops and seminars aimed and tackling challenges that are being faced by the communities, in particular marriages, raising children, financial management and other topics. Growing the praise & worship team by training teenagers to play instruments. Building on the momentum created by the Special Weekend Service and making (( an annual event. Developing the social media plafforms with content filmed by the youth li.e. interviews, conversations, summaries of services, creative conlenl such as poems and music). The growth strategy for the short to medium term periods, revolves around the youth development programme, and on empowering young people in the church to build the tools they need to win souls and encourage their peers to come lo church.
