**CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SOCIETY, MAIDSTONE TRUSTEES' REPORT** 

**Page 2** 

The Trustees are pleased to present their report and the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30th September 2022. 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

## **Governing Document** 

Christian Science Society, Maidstone is governed by By-laws which were last revised in 2007 and approved by the Members at a meeting on 16 July 2007. The By-laws can be amended at a Members' meeting by a two-thirds' majority vote by ballot of the total membership of the charity. The Society is an unincorporated charity registered with The Charity Commissioners in England and Wales with registration number 255941. 

## **Organisational Structure** 

The Society is managed by an Executive Board who are elected annually at the AGM in January. The Board meet on a regular basis as required and report to the members at each quarterly Members' meeting. The Church's freehold property and investments are held by Trustees who are appointed by the members in general meeting. 

## **Risk Management** 

The Board have identified the major risks to which they believe the charity is exposed and these are reviewed from time to time to ensure systems are established to mitigate such risks. 

## **Objects, Activities, Achievements and Performance for the public benefit** 

The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Church's aims and objectives and in planning future activities. 

## **Charitable Objects** 

The principal objectives of the Society are to spread the understanding of Truth as set forth in the Bible and interpreted in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, the discoverer and founder of Christian Science. 

## **Review of activities** 

Sunday services together with Wednesday testimony meetings on the first Wednesday of each month were held throughout the year. In addition, a thanksgiving service was held on Saturday 13th November 2021. Our Reading Room was open to the public two times a week and our Reading Group held meetings on the second Saturday of each month throughout the year. We again took part in the Kent Churches sponsored "Ride and Stride" which this year took place on 10th September 2022. During the year we continued our involvement in the Maidstone Interfaith Network having at least one representative at most of their meetings some of which were held via Zoom. 

## **Financial Review** 

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

Total income for the year amounted to £38,339 a reduction of £39,942 on the previous year's figure of £78,281. This reduction was due to the receipt of a generous donation of £45,000 from the members of FCCS Tunbridge Wells in the previous year. Total expenditure during the year at £23,337 was some £1,659 up on the previous year's figure of £21,678 due mainly to the fact we were closed for sixteen weeks in the previous year due to the covid-19 restrictions. 



**CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SOCIETY, MAIDSTONE TRUSTEES' REPORT (Continued)** 

**Page 3** 

## **Financial Review (continued)** 

The net income for the year before realised and unrealised investment gains  and losses amounted to £15,002 as compared to £56,603 in 2020/21.  After the net realised and unrealised investment gains and losses during the year of £48,177 losses (2020/21 gains of £87,502), the net movement in funds amounted to a reduction of £33,175 as compared to an increase of £144,105 in 2020/21. 

## **Reserves** 

The Society's policy with regard to its free reserves is to maintain these at a sufficient level to ensure that it can continue to meet its objectives in the community in which it operates for the foreseeable future. 

## **Trustees** 

The Charity Trustees (Members of the Executive Board) and the Property Trustees who served during the financial year and at the date of this report were as follows: 

Executive Board: Mrs J Harmer (Appointed 15 January 2022) Mrs E Hutchison (Retired 15 January 2022) Mrs S Parker J S Penrose (Retired 15 January 2022) P Snell (Appointed 15 January 2022) Property Trustees: Mrs J Harmer J S Penrose P Snell 

## **Trustees' responsibilities in relation to the financial statements** 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the Charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing financial statements giving a true and fair view, the Trustees should follow best practice and: 

- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

- 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 responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the Charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011 and the provisions of the By-laws. 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. 

Approved by the Trustees on 14th January 2023 and signed on their behalf by: 

Mrs S Parker Chairman 



**CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SOCIETY, MAIDSTONE Page 4 INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SOCIETY, MAIDSTONE** 

I report on the accounts of the Society for the year ended 30 September 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and related notes set out on pages 5 to 11. 

This report is made solely to the trustees in accordance with Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's trustees for my examination work. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. They consider that an audit is not required for this year under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- Examine the accounts under Section 145 of the Charities Act; 

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

- ***** to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner’s statement** 

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 Society 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 you as 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** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

**1.** which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: 

- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; 

- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act 

have not been met, or 

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