Aehievements and performanee
We held three residential events in 2022.. a Helpers, weekend in February in the Peak District, an all-age
Walking weekend in May in the Gower and an all-age ￿'eek in August at Kintbury in Berkshire. The Walking
weekend looked at meditation and nature whilst the Kintbury week was themed on 5 ways to wellbeing and how
our faith impacts on this model.
We also held on-line events incllldiiig input froin Greg Ryan in Febrnary on the current synodal process. This
'as followed up with several in-person regyional ineetings to discuss a CPW response. It concluded with an
on-line event iii September before submittingF a response to the Bishop5 of England and Wale5.
Another on-line event was our Autumn Lecture given by Dr Carn]ody Grey, looking at our responsibility to
respond to the climate crisi5. We also continued our Wednesday Zoom prayer 5es5ions. These were held daily
during Lent with a poemireflection being sent out to all niembers each day ii) preparation. After Easter the
prayers moved to nionthly until Advent Mhen additional refleLiionslprayers were provided each week.
In February we agreed to trial a new model of governance, with three people taking on the responsibilities of the
c.hair. The proposal was that this Mould be an i1)￿riM arrangement whilst the organisatioi) spent some tiine
detennining a future direction. This decision by the Trustees was ratified by the members at an on-line EGM. As
part Lif this process, the Trustees held a strategic away day in October.
Financial review
At the end of 2022 we were in a good financial position. The general fund stood at £37,454 and the Bursary
fund balance was £16.058. The balance on the general fund is more than the amount required by our reserves
policy and we are looking at ways to bring it more in line with our policv. One L)f these is to put on a residential
weekend for the development of our current and potential Helpers- the name given to the (usually) young adults
that supervise the children's activities at our all age evenis.
We received a generous legacy in 2022 from a long standing member which helped to improve the year end
position.
The balance on the Bursary fund is almost exactly the same as at the start of the year, although this is because
the donations made to the fund during the year more or les5 matched the value of disbursement5. More iieeds to
be doiie to proTnote the use of the Bursary fund
we offered a 200/0 reduction in 202), for people who felt they
iieeded a helping hand, biit iinfortunately the website couldn't be set up in time to inake this ai'ailable at the click
of a button - something we hope to rectify for ￿tUre events.
The World Fund had a balance of just over £2,000, which will be passed onto overseas charities in 202i.
The main financial risk faced by CPW is an event havin¥ to be cancelled and monies paid upfront bein¥
noii-refundable.
Poliry oll reserves
Our reserves policy requires us to hold between £1 1,000 and £25,000 to cover fluctuations in cash flow (paying
for a residential centre before members have paid their bills) andlor the financial risk of an event having to be
cancelled and monies paid upfront being non-refundable.

flow statement in these financial statements.
Going concern
The financial statemeiits have been prepared 011 a goiiig concem basis.

Expenditure
All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligatioii to that expenditure. it is probable
settlement is required and the amoiiiit can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable
expenditure heading that aggregates similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to
particular heading5 they have been allocated on a basis con51Stent with the use of resources, with central staff
costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset's iise.
Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.
Churltuble ueliwllies
Charitable expendiiure Comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activiiies and services
for irs beneficiaries. li includes both costs that can be allocaied directly io such activities and those costs of an
indirect nature necessary to support them.
Taxation
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph I Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and
therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation lax purposes. Accordingly, the
chariry is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income L)r capital gains received within categories
covered by Chapter i Part I l of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable
Gains Act 1992, to th¢ extellt that such income or gains are applied exclusively to ¢haritable purposes.

usiiiu the effective iiiterest method, less provision for impainnent. A provi5ioii for the impainnent of debtors 15
established when there 15 objective evidence that the charity will Jiot be able to collect all amounts due
accordinbT to the orig7inal tern]5 of the receivables.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivaleiits comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other 5hort-te]Th highly liquid
investmeiits that are readily convertible to a knowii amount of cash and are subject to an iiisignificant risk of
change li) value.

business from suppliers. Accounts payable art elassifjed as current liabilities if the Charity does i)ot have an

The specific purposes for which the funds are to be applied are as fLIIIows'.
The Bursary fund is to provide discounts on the cost of events to those who would not otherwise be able to
afford to join. It also provides discounts for large families {) or more children) and for carers of members
attending an event in Ihai role.
The World fund donations are collected from members. and passed onto the overseas charities, with particular
charities being nominated at each event.
The Training fund was given to us by CCLA for the provision of an annual lecture. Since the first lecture in
2019 the annual lectures have all be on-line and have not incurred direct costs. As soon as we are able to hold an
in-person event it is expected that this fund will be fully discharged.
