## **Trustees’ Annual Report for the year ended 30th September 2025** 

The Trustees present their report and accounts for the year to 30th September 2025. The Trustees have prepared these accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK (FRS 102). 

Further information about these accounts, and the activities of the charity in general, can be obtained by writing to the charity at its offices. 

## **Constitution** 

The charity made the decision to change its structure to that of a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) effective 1st October 2024 and was merged into the new CIO on that date. The new CIO was named the Catholic Charismatic 

Renewal in England and Wales. This report and the accounts that follow are in accordance with the governing document dated 20th August 2024. 

In the event of winding-up or dissolution, any remaining assets (after the settlement of debts and liabilities) would be transferred to other charities with similar objects. 

## **Objects and Activities** 

The charity’s principal objects are the advancement of the Christian faith and the promotion of spiritual renewal in the Roman Catholic Church. The charity undertakes a broad range of activities to fulfil these objectives: 

• Through our website (charisuk.com), we provide different ways in which individuals can strengthen their faith, including free resources and courses 

• Through The Ascent, we run a three year course for young people in school years 10-13 

• We arrange conferences and training courses from time to time 

• We support various conferences and distribute donations received 

The historic relationship between the charity and the Charis National Service of Communion (CNSC) is recognised and enshrined in the charity's governing document dated 20th August 2024. The Trustees and the CNSC work closely together to further the charity's objectives. 

In setting their objectives and determining their activities, the Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit. The Trustees are committed to enabling as many people as possible to access the charity’s resources and events so that they may benefit from a deeper understanding of the Christian faith and experience renewal in their spiritual lives. For example, some of the charity’s resources can be accessed, free of charge, from the charity’s website, so those on low incomes are not excluded.

## **Trustees’ Annual Report (continued) for the year ended 30th September 2025** 

## **Trustees** 

The Trustees are responsible for the financial activities of the charity. They meet three or four times a year to monitor performance, review activities and determine the charity’s policy and strategy. Resolutions of the Trustees are passed by majority vote, with the chairman having a casting vote in the event of a tie. 

The current trustees are listed on Page 1. New or replacement trustees are nominated by the serving trustees and may be appointed at any meeting of the Trustees. When seeking to appoint new trustees, attention is paid to the business, financial, legal, professional and other skills required for the good governance of the charity. 

New trustees are provided with the documents relating to the constitution, objects and activities of the charity, together with current financial and other information relating to the operation of the charity. All Trustees are expected to keep up-to-date with the requirements of the Charity Commissioners. 

## **Organisation of the Trust** 

During the year a decision was made to close our Catholic Evangelisation Services section in order to focus resources in other areas.  This resulted in the redundancy of 2 employees. 

The  Moment of Opportunity and Men’s Conferences, The Ascent and Network are managed by groups set up specifically to run these events, while ad hoc committees manage other activities. All matters are subject to prayer and discernment of the Lord's direction. 

## **Review of Activities** 

The charity was able to maintain many of its established range of services during the period. We continue to inspire and challenge our subscribers in online form through our websites and our activities in various social media applications. 

The Catholic Charismatic Renewal website (charisuk.com), examines what it means to be a Charismatic Catholic. Providing a range of articles regarding Family, Society, Cultural and Global issues, we hope that viewers will be supported and encouraged to live a Spirit-filled life. We continued to explore ways in which our resources can be utilised throughout the Church. 

The Ascent ministry continues to maintain and offer a three year discipleship course for young people in school years 10-13 that seeks to raise a generation  who are passionate about prayer and influencing the church and the wider society around them. The Ascent ministry is overseen by a CREW Trust Steering Group consisting of a minimum of two Trustees and some co-opted members who are not Trustees who provide additional expertise, such as in the area of safeguarding. The Steering Group is chaired by a CREW Trustee.

## **Trustees’ Annual Report (continued) for the year ended 30th September 2025** 

## **Review of Financial Performance** 

The overall result for the year was a decrease in reserves of £18,645(2024: decrease of £29,714).Total income for the period was £200,554 (2024: £300,271), a decrease of £99,717 whilst total expenditure amounted to £219,200 (2024: £329,985), a decrease  of £110,785. It is necessary to bear in mind that these comparisons are between a 12 month and a 17 month period in 2024. The main component of income were donations of £130,931 which were lower than those received in the previous 17 month period (2024: £192,432). 

Income from charitable activities of £66,948 was lower than in the previous period (2024: £103,397) . Restricted income was lower than in the previous period, at £118,705 (2024: £192,764). Restricted expenditure was £134,440 (2024: £217,173) . 

In broad terms, restricted expenditure should usually be similar to restricted income, as the monies received are intended to fund specific media projects, conferences and grants to individuals and institutions. The timing of the expenditure can result in a surplus being reported in some years and a deficit in other years. 

Unrestricted income for the year £81,849 was down on the previous 17 month period (2024: £107,507) Unrestricted expenditure was lower than the previous period at £84,760 (2024: 112,812) 

The charity’s total reserves at the end of September 2025 were £101,002 of which the balances on unrestricted and restricted funds were £75,137 (2024: £78,048) and £25,865 (2024: £41,599), respectively. 

The Trustees continually seek to further improve the viability and stability of the charity in financial terms. 

The Trustees continue to seek to ensure that costs are supported by the anticipated income from charitable activities and voluntary income. 

## **Reserves, Risks and Investment Policies** 

The Trustees' policy regarding reserves is to hold sufficient specific reserves to meet the obligations imposed by donors and sufficient general reserves to sustain the charity’s activities. 

Annual budgets for each significant area of the charity’s activities are prepared and monitored. The Trustees have considered the risks to which the charity is exposed and have taken steps to mitigate the effects of those risks. They consider the unrestricted funds carried forward to be sufficient for the charity’s immediate needs. 

_Page 4_ 



## **CREW TRUST** 

## **Trustees’ Annual Report (continued) for the year ended 30th September 2025** 

## **Reserves, Risks and Investment Policies continued** 

The Trustees may invest surplus funds at their discretion and have chosen to hold these in instant-access, interest-bearing bank deposit accounts, since variances in monthly income and expenditure, and the unexpected, may mean that the funds are required immediately. 

## **Relationships with other Groups, Charities and Individuals** 

The charity works closely with the National Service Committees for Scotland and Ireland and other Catholic Church groups, under the auspices of the Roman Catholic Church, and ecumenically, to achieve its charitable objects. 

Charities with similar objectives to our own that we assist include Sion Community for Evangelism and Celebrate Trust. 

Nicholas Wells was a Trustee of both Crew Trust and SION Community during this period. Ian Yardley was a Trustee of both Crew Trust and Celebrate Trust during this period. The Trustees wish to take this opportunity to acknowledge the tremendous work done by the Trust’s many supporters and volunteers whose efforts, by God’s grace, have enriched the lives of so many people. 

## **Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities** 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Charity Law in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial period that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing the attached financial statements the Trustees are required to: 

 select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

 observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP; 

 make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

 state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed (subject to any departures that are 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 in operation. 

The Trustees are also responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports)

regulations and the provisions of the governing document. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CREW TRUST** 

I report to the charity trustees on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 30th September 2025, which are set out on pages eight to sixteen. 

## _**Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner**_ 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. They consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. The charity's gross income exceeded £25,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- a) examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, 

- b) follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and 

- c) state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## _**Basis of Independent Examiner’s report**_ 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the 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**_ 

I confirm that no other matter has come to my attention giving me cause to believe in any material respect: 

- 1) accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or 2) the accounts do not accord with those records; or 3) that accounts do not  comply with the applicable accounting requirements of the Charities Act; or 

- 4) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Accounts for the period ended 30th September 2025 **Notes to the Accounts** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015. The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis and under the historical cost convention. 

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 Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn. 

The charity changed its structure to that of a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) effective 1st October 2024 and was merged into the new CIO on that date.

Costs associated with generating funds (namely voluntary income) is not considered to be significant in the context of the accounts and no expenditure has been attributed to this activity. 

Certain costs are directly attributable to specific charitable activities. Those shared costs that remain are allocated among the expenditure categories of the SOFA in proportion to the use of the resource. 

## **Stocks** 

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.  Media production costs are written off as incurred.

## **3 Donated Facilities and Other Intangible Income** 

The work of the charity is considerably enhanced by the assistance of many volunteers who help in innumerable ways, but these gifts have not been valued in these accounts in view of the inherent difficulties. 

## **4 Payments to Staff, Trustees and Connected Persons** 

The average number of employees, including part-time staff, analysed by function was: 

|Distribution of teaching<br>resources<br>Running of courses|Total<br>FTE<br>1.0<br>0.2<br>6.0<br>1.5<br>7.0<br>1.7<br>2025|Total<br>FTE<br>2024|Total<br>FTE<br>2024|
