TRUSTEES' REPORT for the period ended 31st March 2021
The trustees present their report together with the financial statements of the charity for the period ended 31st March 2021. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out on page 7 and comply with the charity's trust deed and applicable law.
Trustees
The trustees named on page 1 have served throughout the year. Appointment of trustees is governed by the Trust Deed of the charity. The Board of trustees is authorised to appoint new trustees to fill vacancies arising through resignation or death of an existing trustee.
Investments powers
The Trust Deed authorises the trustees to make and hold investments using the general funds of the charity, but no such investments are presently held.
Constitution, objects and policies
The charitable Trust is constituted by Trust Deed and its objects are to provide advancement of the Christian faith.
The policy of the charitable Trust continues to be to seek additional donations to continue to run the church.
The trustees take the day-to-day responsibility for running the charity.
Development, activities and achievements
The trustees consider that the performance of the charity this period has been most satisfactory and the number of congregants has increased once again this year.
Financial review
Funds available are sufficient to permit the Trust to continue in operation in the medium term, given the continued support of the congregants. Should this support not continue in the longer term, further financial support would need to be sought to replace it.
Risk Management
The trustees actively review the major risk which the charity faces on a regular basis and believe that maintaining reserves at current levels, combined with an annual review of the controls over key financial systems, will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions. The trustees have also examined other operational and business risks faced by the charity and confirm that they have established systems to mitigate the significant risks.

Future Developments
The Trustee continue to promote an increase in congregation members, and are looking to develop a number of projects for the benefit of the local communities in which our bethels are located
Reserves policy
It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds at a level which provides sufficient funds to cover management and administration and support costs.
Statement of trustee's responsibilities
Law applicable to charities in England 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 those financial statements, the trustees are required to:
a) Select suitable accountancy policies and apply them consistently;
b) make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
c) state whether applicable accounting standards and statement of recommended practice have been followed, subject to many departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
d) prepare the financial statements on a 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 at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the charities Act 1993. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps fit the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accountants presented with those records. It also includes consideration of an unusually items or disclosure in the accounts and seeking explanation from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accountants.
