The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the Charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011, FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Charities SORP "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)". ## **Objectives and activities** The Charity's principal activity is to use its assets and income for such charitable purposes and objects as the Trustees in their absolute and uncontrolled discretion think fit and are undertaken for the purposes of public benefit. The object of the Charity is to make available the land and building for various community activities and to make grants to various organisations. ## _Public benefit_ The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the Charity should undertake. ## _Activities_ During the year ended 30 September 2025, the Charity employed Mrs S Johnson, Mrs R Watkins and Mrs K Jones. They organised and coordinated Christian mission activities and community events in Admaston which have given a chance to the community to improve their quality of life and meet the local needs of children and adults. Between them they have run “Pushchair People”, St Christopher’s Café, Toddler Café, Alpha Groups, Admaston Fun Week, Messy Church, Open the Book, Children’s Clubs, and a Youth Cafe. They have involved a good number of volunteers in their activities and some other activities have been run purely by volunteers. These included Men’s Group, Ladies Group, “Emmaus Fellowship” and some adhoc activities. The Charity’s investments decreased by about 0.5% over the year. However, the income increased slightly by 2.1% and remains below 2019 levels. Current expectation is for a partial recovery in 2025/26. Mr. Roland West ceased his service contract for administration with the Trust in May 2025. The Trustees have initiated a service contract with Mr. Richard Denyer for administration in place of Mr. R West. During the year, Mr. R West and Mr. R Denyer received £2,500 between them in accord with the respective contracts. Both remain voluntary in all other capacities. The four Trustees have been pleased to continue and are from a range of local churches. The Trustees have been satisfied with the financial performance of the investments relative to benchmarks. These enable the work. They are also very pleased with the community engagement with the Trust’s activities, the quality of the staff input, the high energy of volunteers and the spiritual advance during the year. We give thanks to the Lord and all involved. ## **Achievements and performance** ## _Significant activities and achievements against objectives_ The trust has continued to run significant regular Christian activities as listed above for the benefit of the community and Christ’s kingdom. The Trust once again ran the Admaston Fun week in which 100 primary children engaged in the club and their families joined in evening activities. - 1 - ## **ST CHRISTOPHER'S HALL TRUST** ## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025**_ ## **Financial review** At 30 September 2025 the Charity had unrestricted reserves of £1,322,324 (2024: £1,331,846). These reserves are invested to provide income for expenditure in future years. Financial results for the year are set out in the Statement of Financial Activities on page 5 and the position at the end of the year is shown in the Balance Sheet on page 6. During the year ended 30 September 2025 there was net losses of £9,522 (2024: net income of £96,148). ## _Reserves policy_ It is the policy of the Charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six month’s expenditure. The Trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the Charity’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year. ## _Principal funding sources_ The Charity’s main source of income is generated from its current asset investment. The majority of the income is applied to paying for mission expenses and wages and salaries. ## _Investment policy_ Charles Stanley & Company Limited has been appointed by the Trustees to manage the investment portfolio of the Charity. ## **Plans for future periods** The aim of the Charity is to continue to make funds available for charitable purposes and to finance mission activities. ## **Structure, governance and management** The Charity was formed by Trust Deed on 22 November 1957. It obtained charitable status on 31 March 1959. The charity number is 229886. The Charity is controlled by its governing document, a Deed of Trust, and constitutes an unincorporated charity. The Trustees who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were: R Denyer D E Croker D Williams (Resigned 24 April 2026) P Watkins R West ## _Recruitment and appointment of trustees_ The Trustees have the power to appoint new Trustees using their absolute and uncontrolled discretion as they think fit. Trustees's induction and training are determined by the existing Trustees. None of the Trustees has any beneficial interest in the company. All of the Trustees are members of the company and guarantee to contribute £1 in the event of a winding up. - 2 - ## **ST CHRISTOPHER'S HALL TRUST** ## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025**_ The Trustees' report was approved by the Board of Trustees. ## Richard Denyer .............................. ## **Trustee** 13 May 2026 Date: ............................................. - 3 - ## **ST CHRISTOPHER'S HALL TRUST** ## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT** ## **TO THE TRUSTEES OF ST CHRISTOPHER'S HALL TRUST** I report to the Trustees on my examination of the financial statements of St Christopher's Hall Trust (the Charity) for the year ended 30 September 2025. ## **Responsibilities and basis of report** As the Trustees of the Charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011. I report in respect of my examination of the Charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act 2011. ## **Independent examiner's statement** Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with the relevant version of the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements 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 now been withdrawn. I understand that this has been done in order for the financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. - I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention 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 Charities Act 2011. - 2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or - 3 the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of financial statements set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the financial statements 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 financial statements to be reached. ## **Louise Hallsworth FCA** Affinia (Orpington) Chartered Accountants Lynwood House, Crofton Road Orpington BR6 8QE Date: ............................ - 4 - ## **ST CHRISTOPHER'S HALL TRUST** ## **STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL ACTIVITIES INCLUDING INCOME AND EXPENDITURE ACCOUNT** ## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025**_ |||**Unrestricted**|**Unrestricted**| |---|---|---|---| |||**funds**|**funds**| |||**2025**|**2024**| ||**Notes**|**£**|**£**| |**Income from:**|||| |Donations and legacies|**3**|1,000|-| |Charitable activities|**4**|9,502|6,694| |Other trading activities|**5**|56|-| |Investments|**6**|40,565|39,799| |**Total income**||51,123|46,493| |**Expenditure on:**|||| |Raising funds|**7**|6,245|8,338| |Charitable activities|**8**|56,498|52,013| |**Total expenditure**||62,743|60,351| |Net gains/(losses) on investments|**14**|2,458|110,006| |**Net income/(expenditure) and movement in funds**||(9,162)|96,148| |**Reconciliation of funds:**|||| |Fund balances at 1 October 2024||1,331,846|1,235,698| |**Fund balances at 30 September 2025**||1,322,684|1,331,846| The statement of financial activities includes all gains and losses recognised in the year.

The Charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102. The Charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a statement of cash flows. The financial statements 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 Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. ## **1.2 Going concern** At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. ## **1.3 Charitable funds** Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives. Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements. Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the Charity. ## **1.4 Income** Income is recognised when the Charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received. Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the Charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation. Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the Charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset. - 7 - ## **ST CHRISTOPHER'S HALL TRUST** ## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025**_ ## **1 Accounting policies** **(Continued)** ## **1.5 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 are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. ## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets** Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases: Long leasehold Over the lease term Fixtures and fittings 25% on reducing balance The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities. ## **1.7 Impairment of fixed assets** At each reporting end date, the Charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). ## **1.8 Cash and cash equivalents** Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. ## **1.9 Financial instruments** The Charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. ## _**Basic financial assets**_ Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are measured at transaction price. ## _**Basic financial liabilities**_ Basic financial liabilities, including creditors are initially recognised at transaction price Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. - 8 - ## **ST CHRISTOPHER'S HALL TRUST** ## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025**_ ## **1 Accounting policies** ## **(Continued)** ## **1.10 Employee benefits** The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received. Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the Charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits. ## **1.11 Retirement benefits** Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due. ## **2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements** In the application of the Charity’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods. ## **3 Income from donations and legacies** ||**Unrestricted**|**Unrestricted**| |---|---|---| ||**funds**|**funds**| ||**2025**|**2024**| ||**£**|**£**| |Grants|1,000|-| ## **4 Income from charitable activities** ||**Unrestricted**|**Unrestricted**| |---|---|---| ||**funds**|**funds**| ||**2025**|**2024**| ||**£**|**£**| |**Activities**||| |Mission income|4,272|4,726| |Cafe income|5,230|1,968| ||9,502|6,694| - 9 - ## **ST CHRISTOPHER'S HALL TRUST** ## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025**_ ## **5 Income from other trading activities** |||**Unrestricted**|**Unrestricted**| |---|---|---|---| |||**funds**|**funds**| |||**2025**|**2024**| |||**£**|**£**| ||Letting and licensing arrangements|56|-| |**6**|**Income from investments**||| |||**Unrestricted**|**Unrestricted**| |||**funds**|**funds**| |||**2025**|**2024**| |||**£**|**£**| ||Income from listed investments|40,081|39,240| ||Interest receivable|484|559| |||40,565|39,799| |**7**|**Expenditure on raising funds**||| |||**Unrestricted**|**Unrestricted**| |||**funds**|**funds**| |||**2025**|**2024**| |||**£**|**£**| ||**Investment management**|6,245|8,338| - 10 - ## **ST CHRISTOPHER'S HALL TRUST** ## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025**_ ## **8 Expenditure on charitable activities** |**Activities**
