EMMANUEL BAPTIST CHURCH, EXETER

TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

ended 31 December 2025.

Objectives and Activities

a. Objectives

The principal objectives of Emmanuel Baptist Church, Exeter (the “Church” or “Emmanuel Exeter”) are (i) advancement of the Christian faith in accordance with the Church's Statement of Faith primarily but not exclusively within Exeter and the surrounding neighbourhood; and (ii) such other charitable purposes as shall, in the opinion of the Trustees and with agreement of the members, put into practice the Christian faith in accordance with the Church’s Statement of Faith.

Emmanuel Exeter exists by the grace of God, for the glory of God, which is the ultimate purpose in all of the Church’s activities. Emmanuel Exeter glorifies God by loving Him and obeying His commands though: Worshipping Him; Equipping the saints through Bible instruction and study; Proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ through preaching and personal evangelism, and any other means consistent with the teachings of Holy Scripture; Encouraging, supporting, and participating in missions work, local, domestic, and international; Administering the ordinances of Baptism and the Lord’s Supper; Encouraging Biblical fellowship among believers; Serving other individuals, families, and the Church by providing for physical, emotional, and spiritual needs in the name of Jesus Christ; and Calling fellow churches to biblical faithfulness and purity through instruction and encouragement about the nature of the local church.

b. Activities Undertaken to Achieve Objectives

The Church’s main activities during 2025 were (i) Sunday morning services that included times of Bible reading, prayer, praise and preaching, (ii) Sunday evening prayer, praise and teaching, and (iii) midweek home groups including Bible teaching.

c. Achievements and Performance

Owing to the spiritual nature of the Church’s objectives it is di�icult to quantify achievements; however, the Church started 2025 with 19 members and the number of members increased to 37 by the end of 2025. There were also 2 baptisms during 2025 and the regular attendance at Sunday morning services was around 80 each Sunday.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025 (continued)

d. Future Plans

In 2026 Emmanuel Exeter hopes to grow in membership as the Lord provides. We will continue to strengthen ties with like-minded Baptist churches including financially supporting a church plant in another part of England early in the year.

Financial Review

a. Going Concern

The Trustees have assessed whether the use of going concern is appropriate (i.e. whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Church to continue as a going concern) and have concluded that the Church is a going concern since the Church is well supported financially by its members and other individuals, churches and associations.

b. Reserves Policy

The Church holds £24,000 in unrestricted reserves in compliance with its mortgage agreement, such amount representing approximately two months of expenses.

c. Financial Review

Incoming resources during the year to 31 December 2025 totalled £244,947 (2024: £605,036) and expenditure totalled £137,895 (2024: £57,522) leaving a surplus of £107,052 (2024: £547,514).

The balance held in unrestricted funds at 31 December 2025 was £454,566 (2024: £347,514).

The balance held in restricted funds at 31 December 2025 was £200,000 (2024: £200,000).

The Church was registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales on 22 May 2024 as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation with registered charity number 1208348.

The Church Handbook sits alongside the Constitution and must always be consistent with the Constitution – if the Handbook is inconsistent, the Constitution takes precedence.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT

TO THE TRUSTEES OF EMMANUEL BAPTIST CHURCH, EXETER (“the Charity”)

I report to the Charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 December 2025.

Responsibilities and Basis of Report

As the Trustees of the Charity you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').

I report in respect of my examination of the Charity’s accounts carried out under Section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent Examiner's Statement

Your attention is drawn to the fact that the Charity has prepared the accounts in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn.

I understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice e�ective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.

in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. Accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by Section 130 of the 2011 Act; or

  2. The accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. The accounts do 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.

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

1. General Information

Emmanuel Baptist Church, Exeter is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation registered in England & Wales. Its registered office address is 18 Earl Richards Road North, Exeter EX2 6AG.

2. Accounting Policies

2.1 Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) published in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

Emmanual Baptist Church, Exeter meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.

2.1 Going Concern

The Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern.

2.3 Income

All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

Grants are included in the Statement of Financial Activities on a receivable basis. The balance of income received for specific purposes but not expended during the period is shown in the relevant funds on the Balance sheet. Where income is received in advance of entitlement of receipt, its recognition is deferred and included in creditors as deferred income. Where entitlement occurs before income is received, the income is accrued.

14

EMMANUEL BAPTIST CHURCH, EXETER

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025 (continued)

2.4 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

2.5 Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation

Tangible fixed assets are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.

Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, on a reducing balance basis.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Freehold Property - 2% per annum

2.6 Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

2.7 Cash at Bank and In Hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

15

EMMANUEL BAPTIST CHURCH, EXETER

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025 (continued)

2.8 Liabilities and Provisions

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as a finance cost.

2.9 Financial Instruments

The Charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

2.10 Fund Accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the Notes to the Financial Statements.

3. Critical Accounting Estimates and Areas of Judgment

Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:

There are no critical accounting estimates or assumptions.
