Trustees report for the year ended 30[th] September 2022
Report of the Trustees
The trustees present their report for United Beach Mission Trust (UBM) for the year ended 30[th] September 2022.
Legal & Administrative
United Beach Mission Trust is a charitable organisation (Registered Charity Number 273912). The Declaration of Trust dated 11th May 1978, amended on 6th March 2003, 15 June 2005 and 24 November 2007 governs the trust.
The original trust deeds and all amendments are held by the charity’s treasurer.
The trustees, who form the Executive Committee (excepting any who are also employees of UBM) administer the charity.
Objects and Principal Activity
There are three principal activities of UBM.
The first principal activity is the proclamation and furtherance of the Gospel of God concerning his son Jesus Christ and the preaching and teaching of the Christian faith in the UK, the Republic of Ireland and in Continental Europe. This is achieved by the organisation, sponsorship and promotion of inter-denominational Christian work. In particular, UBM organises:
-
a) ‘Beach Mission’ teams on the beaches of the UK, Ireland and Continental Europe with the aim of sharing the good news of Jesus with families.
-
b) ‘Christian Answer’ teams in various cities and tourist locations within the UK (such as London, Cambridge, Oxford and Edinburgh). This is through open-air preaching of the Christian faith, book tables and personal engagement with those willing to do so.
-
c) ‘International Student Outreach’ teams. This aspect of the work current runs in Bournemouth.
-
d) ‘Avancer’ teams. These are weeks of evangelism organised by local churches in French speaking Europe. The churches are responsible (legally and financially) for the week, but UBM is happy to promote, pray for and provide team members for each of them.
-
e) ‘MV’ Teams run in different European locations. In some instances as with Avancer teams UBM promote and provide teams members and the work is run mostly by the local church. In other instances the leadership and vast majority of the team apply through UBM with the local church supporting the mission.
The second principal activity is to deepen the knowledge of the Bible of those we have met through the above activities. In particular, UBM:
-
a) organises Bible correspondence courses for both children and adults.
-
b) answers any queries about the Christian faith from those who enquire.
The third principal activity is to train and develop UBM volunteers (both on teams and throughout the year) for the task of sharing the good news of the Gospel. These come from churches with whom we seek to establish a good working relationship. In 2022, 328 different churches sent volunteers on weeks with UBM.
Impact of the Covid-19 Pandemic
The 2022 mission year was seen as a building back season for UBM. After no missions in 2020, we were able to run some teams in 2021 with different restrictions in place across the different countries in which we operate. 2022 provided further opportunity to start redeveloping and increase those opportunities. We were able to run more teams and accept more team members on to those weeks. There is an acknowledgment within UBM that it will take a few years to rebuild and reach the same level as pre-Covid (ie 2019), both in terms of the number of mission weeks we can run and team members. It has been encouraging to see the work regrowing this year.
Public Benefit
UBM provides public benefit in many different ways. The main benefits include, but are not confined to, the following:
-
Making known the Gospel of Jesus Christ, freely and without charge, to families and individuals, both in the UK and beyond, who otherwise would not have the opportunity to hear it.
-
Making freely known the teaching of the Bible to members of the public, in the UK and abroad.
-
Providing free family centred activities for holidaymakers in the UK and abroad.
-
Providing teaching for young people in the Christian faith.
-
Providing training for young people in the practice and principles of the Christian faith.
-
Providing opportunities for young people to develop teamwork and leadership skills.
-
Providing training for young people in public speaking and debating.
-
Providing a resource for evangelical churches to train their young people.
-
Providing training as children’s, family and personal workers.
-
Providing training and opportunities in evangelism.
-
Supplying literature freely regarding the Christian faith to members of the public.
-
Providing online resources (via several websites) to explain the Christian faith.
-
Providing Bible correspondence courses enabling deeper understanding of Christianity.
-
Providing training and opportunities in cross-cultural evangelism.
-
Providing a training ground for younger Christians that other Christian organisations draw workers from.

Trustees
On 30[th] September 2021, the officers of the charity were: Chairman - Prof. Stephen Taylor Secretary - Mr Jason Duffin (who also acts as deputy chairman) Treasurer - Mr David Johnson On 30[th] September 2021, the other trustees were: Mr Stephen Wright Dr David Norbury (he will officially step down as from 1[st] October 2022) Dr Alan Mitchell Mr David Ainscough Mr Richard Hilliard
The Executive Committee consists of the trustees plus the full-time Executive Officer and part-time Irish Executive Officer.
Appointment of future trustees will be from volunteers already committed to the work of United Beach Missions who would add tangible benefit in carrying out the duties of Trustees. At the May 2022 meeting it was agreed to approach Mr Andrew Pryce about joining the Executive Committee. At the same meeting we reaffirmed our policy that Executive Committee members step down if they are no longer actively doing mission or at age 70 if earlier. Exceptionally this could be extended to 75 (at an absolute max) and occasionally earlier (65) if appropriate. To that end, Mr David Norbury would step down at the end of this financial year.
The following was documented in last year’s annual report: In May 2021, Prof. Steve Taylor gave notice of his intention to stand down as the chairman in 12 months’ time. He is willing to stay on as a trustee. The May 2022 target date was seen as flexible dependent on a successor being appointed. Mr Jason Duffin was tasked with overseeing the process of the appointment of a new chairman and the Executive Committee’s initial discussions occurred in September 2021.
In January 2022 the trustees approached Mr Timothy Howlett regarding taking on the role of chairman. For this to happen a new Executive Officer would need to be found and Mr Timothy Howlett would also need to look for new employment.
Staff
The Executive Officer is Mr Timothy Howlett, who is a member of the Executive committee but, as a paid official, is not a trustee.
From March 2022 the process of looking for a new Executive Officer started with the view that, ideally, UBM would recruit for this role from volunteers who currently serve with UBM and are therefore familiar with who the operation and ethos of the organisation. A list of names was generated and discussed in terms of suitability alongside a formal job description. Five people were approached in in May / June 2022 to ask them whether they would be open to considering the role. After discussion with Prof. Steve Taylor and Mr Dave Johnson and meeting with the trustees individually at the mainland Reunion Conference in September 2022, Mr James Lycett was offered and accepted the role.
The Administration Officer is Miss Tirzah Jones.
The part-time Irish Executive Officer is Mr Hugh Martin. His primary focus is to a) progress the establishment of the UBM Republic of Ireland Trust (see later) and b) coordinate recruitment and develop relationships with a view to see more volunteers on Irish teams. He would be paid on a self-employed basis and would be responsible for his own HMRC payments.
Two other staff (Ulwyn Marshall and Marion Mayes) are employed on a part-time basis to help carry out the administration function of UBM. This amounts to approximately half a full time equivalent. Occasionally, there was a need for them to carry out specific tasks which were carried out according to the furlough provisions of the government scheme.
Organisational Structure
Many operational decisions are devolved to the Management Groups (MG). There are four MGs (English and Welsh Beach Missions, Irish Beach Missions, Christian Answer Missions, Continental Missions) and each MG has a trustee as its chair. They regularly meet to review the operation of the work.
The Executive Committee seek to meet when they can to strategically develop the work as well as cover the legal and governance issues expected of trustees. A subset of the Executive Committee will occasionally meet up with the Executive Officer and Administration Officer to progress matters
raised at the Executive Committee. There has been ongoing discussion as to how best to organise responsibilities such that the work of UBM is managed and developed effectively.
Finance and Reserve Funds
The value of the three properties owned by UBM is now estimated to be in excess of £1,000,000 which constitutes our reserve fund. The 2021-2022 accounts have these tangible assets detailed at £948,819, a conservative estimate. This was the same as the previous three accounting periods. The house in St Ives, Brookdale was valued at £640,000. Periodic revaluations will be applied, on a frequency not exceeding 5 years, recognising the potential resale values of the properties. The next revaluation is due to happen for the 2024-2025 financial year at the latest.
We have never in the history of the charity seen funds drop to zero. The trustees consider that holding what many of our supporters perceive to be large cash reserves do not encourage the faith principle that the charity wishes to promote. Neither do large reserves stimulate giving to the charity. Our policy is therefore to allow working capital to fall to zero, with the value held in property used to secure short-term overdraft facilities should we ever need them. The charity will sell properties to deal with any long-term requirement for borrowing.
The Chairman will circulate a specific appeal to our Advisory Committee should our working capital in the main account fall below £10,000 and where expected income is unlikely to restore to this level. Realising the financial implications of the Covid pandemic, many individuals and organisations generously donated to UBM during the 2019/2020 accounting period. Since then our account balance never went below this £10,000 trigger. In fact, the minimum balance in the main account during 2021/2022 was c£64,400 and the maximum was c£136,500. The balance at the end of the financial year was c£116,100.
The Belfast sterling account fluctuated around the £20,000 level. In the financial year 2019-2020, it was agreed that £21,000 of this would be transferred to the new Irish legal entity once this has been set up. This has yet to happen. There have been some more financial transactions (eg significant gifts towards the work in Ireland). It is expected that the trustees will agree an adjusted figure in their October 2022 meeting. Going forward there will need to be a reconciliation process between the UK trust and the ROI trust.
As usual we submitted our Gift Aid claim. This year the total was £17,370 and was received in 5 payments in May and June 2022.
Most donations are small and given on a regular basis. A few gifts were in the region of £1,000. In addition, there were two gifts (£10,000 and £15,000) which were earmarked to be used on the property in Llandudno. Gifts for such projects are kept in a physically separate account (our deposit account) for administration purposes.
During the last financial year, the treasurer has started conversations with a potential donor who would like to give a ‘substantial’ gift to UBM each year out of his investment portfolio. Future trustees’ reports will detail any significant outcomes from these conversations. Nothing occurred in the current financial year but the first gifts are expected in the 2022-2023 financial year.
Management of the main UBM bank account is undertaken on-line with Miss Tirzah Jones as the primary user and Mr David Johnson and Mr Timothy Howlett as secondary users. This has greatly aided the degree of financial oversight exercised by the trustees and the smooth operation of the charity’s finances. Tirzah Jones (and Timothy Howlett) look at the accounts on a regular basis and will highlight any concerns to the trustees. In addition, the treasurer circulates a summary of the current finances on a periodic basis throughout the year.
This means that any potential strains on finances are spotted early and appropriate action is taken.
Payroll documentation is still outsourced to an Agent, with payments to HMRC personally handled by the Treasurer. Payment of salaries to staff is handled by the Treasurer. All other payments are
mainly dealt with by the Administration Officer with the Executive Officer and Irish Office manager doing others. Separation of income and payments is maintained, with office staff in Belfast and Bridgend handling all income.
The trustees are mindful of the world economic climate and financial pressures on donors to the charity. The cost-of-living crisis deepened in 2022 with the war in Ukraine and energy prices rising dramatically. As well as the regular reporting, a finance committee had been meeting once a year to discuss the financial planning for the charity. It was felt that this was not needed in the current financial year, although the Executive Committee have initiated discussions about creating a ‘finances and general purposes’ committee.
2022 Activities
Evangelism
The main focus for the 2021/22 financial year was to continue rebuilding our mission opportunities post Covid. We recognise that returning to the pre Covid-19 pandemic levels would take several years and would need to take into account our usual considerations such as strong teams and dual leadership. It was clear by the start of 2022 that most restrictions that had limited missions in 2021 had been lifted.
For our summer 2021 missions, the application process for English and Welsh beach teams and Christian Answer teams had opened on 9[th] April 2021. In 2022 we were able to open this on 1[st] January as has been our usual practice.
The summary of missions we ran is:
-
35 weeks English and Welsh missions
-
12 Irish missions
-
11 Christian Answer missions
-
This included launching a new 3 day taster mission in Cheltenham.
-
3 weeks of International Student Outreach missions
-
5 Continental ‘MV’ missions
-
2 Avancer mission
While most missions operated with smaller teams then in 2019, many commented on the openness of families reached by the work. All missions were able to run programmes and it encouraging to renew old and previously reached contacts.
The number of team members in 2022 was 699 up from the 358 who joined teams in 2021.
Follow up
The websites for both the Christian public (www.ubm.org.uk) and those we meet when we run our activities (thebeachteam.org, thechristiananswer.org) are visited regularly. We receive responses and enquiries from them on a regular basis. Resources are sent to all parts of the world from people wishing to find out more about the Christian faith.
The Postal Bible Club (PBC) continues to offer free Bible correspondence courses to those we have met through the work on the beaches, and each month we send lesson to hundreds of children. It is planned to review the effectiveness of this side of our work and make changes that take into account the ever-changing needs of families and individuals we meet.
The full impact of our evangelistic outreach is unknown. Each year we have emails from people who have been helped through the work of UBM. Some of the stories go back many years, but we get to hear them for the first time.
Training and Fellowship
UBM’s more traditional training and fellowship activities were able to run unrestricted in 2022 both in Ireland and on the mainland. For example, the usual Leaders and Seniors’ day (preparation for going on mission) was held in Leicester in May. A full in person reunion conference, the first since September 2019, was held as had been done previously at the Cefn Lea Christian Conference Centre in Newtown, Wales. The Bible teaching was from the opening 7 chapters of the Bible book Revelation.
A special reunion was held in Belfast in mid-September to mark the 50[th] Anniversary of Beach Missions in Ireland. People gathered at Belfast Bible college for a meeting on Friday 16[th] September followed on Saturday 17[th] by a celebratory meal at one of the local hotels.
Review
In 2020, a review of the whole work was initiated. Various task groups were set up to assess their specific areas of the work. The review highlighted key priorities for each area and these will be kept visible for each of the task groups. For each of the areas, the main focus was to restart missions as Covid restrictions were eased. As reported above, this has been further built upon in the 2022 season. More of the key out workings of the review will come into effect during the 2023 season. The Executive Committee and each Management Group will ensure that key review areas are part of their agendas.
Other activities
We provide information to prayer supporters of our work on a regular basis. A monthly prayer letter was produced and sent to 3000+ people, an online prayer meeting is also held on the 2[nd] Thursday of every month.
The trustees remain vigilant to the growing requirements of legislation on charities in the UK. One key focus that has been highlighted in previous annual reports is to progress the set up of a new Irish legal entity (see next section). A comprehensive piece of work was undertaken to review our risk assessments with new formats introduced ready for our summer 2022 activities. It is planned to review the UBM safeguarding policy in the next financial year.
Behind the scenes, work progressed in many areas to improve efficiency and processes. For example, enhancements are continually being worked on for our online administration system.
Plans for the Future
Our focus for the 2022/23 financial year will be to i) ensure a good transition to the new Executive Officer and new Chairman ii) progress the key priorities identified by the review. These priorities include identifying and training the next generation of leaders and thus passing on the baton.
The set-up of a new Irish legal entity should be completed in the next financial year. The process is taking longer than anticipated. Although the requirement is to have two separate trusts (UK and Irish), the aim is to be seen as one logical organisation (operationally and in ethos).

For exampl?. the usual LeadetE and Soniors, Day {preparation for going on mission) was held in Leicestsr in May. A fiJll in person reunion conference, the first since September 2019, was held as had been done previousty at the Cofn Lea Christian Conference Centre in NoWn, Wal8s. The Bible leaching was from the opening 7 chapters of the Bible book R8veL3tion. A special unIOn vfts held in BeW¥t in mid-september to rnark the 50th Anniversary of Beach Missions in Ireland. People gathered at Be8st Bible college for a rneeling on Frlday 16th September folk)wed on Saturday 17th ty a celebratory meal at one of Ihe local hotels. Revlew In 2020, a revlew of th8 y*fi0 work was initiated. VaTiOUS task groups were set up to a$s0S$ their 5peciffc areas of the work. The review hfrjhlighted key priorities for each area, and these will b& kept visible for each of the task groups. For e8ch of the areas. the main focus was to restart missions as Covid restrictions were eased. As reported aVe, this has been further buitt upon In the 2022 season. More of the key out workings of the review will come inlo effect during the 2023 season. The Executive Committee and each Management Group will ensure Ihat key review areas are part of thelr agendas. Other actlvltle8 We prwde informatv)n to prayer supForters of our work on a regular basis. A monthty prayer letter was produc and sent to 3(KJO+ people, an onlin• prayer meeting is also held on the 2nd Thursday of every month. The trustees remain vigilant lo the growing requirements of legislation on charities in the UK. One key focus that has been hKJhlighled in prewous annual reports Is to progress the sel up of a new Irish legal entlty (see next section). A CoMphenSlve piece of work was undertaken to review our risk assessments with new formats inlrodu¢8d ready for our summer 2022 activities. It is planned lo review the UBM safeguarding policy in the next financial year. Behind tha scenes, work progressed in many areas to imkyove effickncy and processe$. For example, enhanments are continualty beir worked on for our online admlnistrab'on system.
United Beach Mission Trust Trustees, Annual Report(¢tinued) Year and•d 30 Septsmber 2022 Financial review Flnance and Re8eNe Funds The value of the three properties ovmed by UBM is now estimated to be in excess of£1,000,000 which constltules our serve fund. The 2021-2022 accounts have these tangible assets d&tail•d al £948,819, a conservatNe estimate. This was the same as the previous three accoLsnting p&ricé$. The house in St Ives, Brc(skdale was Valu al £640,000. Periodic revaluations will be appli•J, on frequ8ncy not exceedin9 5 years. re¢¢gnising the potential resale values of the proFerties. The next revaluation is due to happen for the 2024-2025 financial year al the Latest. We have never in the history of the charity seen funds drop to zero. The trustees consider that holding what many of our supporters peNe to be large $h reserves do not encourage the fallh principle that the charity wshes to promote. Neilher do large erVeS stimulate giving to the chaTity. Our poIY is Iherelore to allow working ¢apitsl to fall to zero, wth the value held in property used to secure short- lem overdraft facilities should we ever need Ihem. The charity wll sell properties to to deal with any long-term requirement for borrowing. Thg Chaiman will circulate a sffic apFeal to Otjr Advisory Comrnrttee should our worklng capital in th8 main account fall below £10.OCrf) and Whe expected incom8 is unlikely to restore lo this level. Réalising the financial implicatfons of Ihe Covid pandemiG, many indNiduals and organisalions gen&rouY donated to UBM during the 201912020 aco)unting period. Since then our account balance never went b•low this £10.ClIO trigger. In fact. the minimum balance in the main account durlng 202112022 was ¢£64,400 and the maximum was o£136,500. The balar at th8 erKI of the financlal yearwas c£116,100. The Belfast sterling account fluctuated arcnd the £20.0 level. In the financial year 2012020, il was agreed that £21.000 of this would be transferred lo the new Irish legal entity once thi5 has been sel up. This has yet to happen. There have been some more financial transactions (èg $ignfficant gifts towards the Wofk in Irelandl. It is expected that the trustees will agree an adjusted figure in their October 2022 meeting. Going forward there will need to be a reconciliation process befvtsen th¢ UK UK trustand the ROI trust AS usual we submitted our Gift claim. This year the total was £17,370 and was received in 5 payments in May and June 2022. Most donations are sm811 and given on a gUlar basls. A few grfts were in the region of £1,000, In additKsn, there were grfis (£10,000 and £15,000) which were earmarked to be used on the property in Llandudno. Gifts for such projects are kept In a physScally separatè aC(unt lour dewsit a¢¢ountl for admlnistration purposes. During the last financial year, the treasurer ha6 started conversation5 With a potential donor who would like to give a subslanlial. gift to UBM each year out of his investment portfolio. Future trustees, reports will detsil any significant outcomes from these conversations. Nothing c¢¢urred in the current financlal year but the first gifts are expected in the 2022-2023 financial year. Management of the main UBM bank account is undertaken on-line wtth Miss Tirzah Jones as the primary user and Mr David Johnson and Mr Timothy HOett as secondary users. This has greaty aided the degree of financial oversight exercised by the trustees and the smooth operation of the charitys finances. TirLah Jones land Timothy Howlett} lojk at the accounts on a regular basis and will highlight any concerns to the trustees. In addition, the treasurer circulates a summary of the Gu8nt finances on a a periLMJic basis throughout the year. This means thal any potential slrains on finances are spotted ear and appropriate action is tsken.
United Beach Mission Trust
Trustees' Annual Report (continued)
Year ended 30 September 2022
Payroll documentation is still outsourced to an Agent, with payments to HMRC personally handled by the Treasurer. Payment of salaries to staff is handled by the Treasurer. All other payments are mainly dealt with by the Administration Officer with the Executive Officer and Irish Office manager doing others. Separation of income and payments is maintained, with office staff in Belfast and Bridgend handling all income.
The trustees are mindful of the world economic climate and financial pressures on donors to the charity. The cost-of-living crisis deepened in 2022 with the war in Ukraine and energy prices rising dramatically. As well as the regular reporting, a finance committee had been meeting once a year to discuss the financial planning for the charity. It was felt that this was not needed in the current financial year, although the Executive Committee have initiated discussions about creating a 'finances and general purposes' committee.
The net incoming resources for the year amounted to £55,903 (2021: £47,232). Gross income has increased to £310,769 (2021: £241,321).
Total Funds has increased by £55,903 in the year, giving a total funds carried forward of £1,090,366. £25,000 are restricted funds (related to Llandudno House). Previous balance shown as b/fwd was spent in 2020/21 to refurbish New Quay House.
Plans for future periods
Our focus for the 2022/23 financial year will be to i) ensure a good transition to the new Executive Officer and new Chairman ii) progress the key priorities identified by the review. These priorities include identifying and training the next generation of leaders and thus passing on the baton.
The set-up of a new Irish legal entity should be completed in the next financial year. The process is taking longer than anticipated. Although the requirement is to have two separate trusts (UK and Irish), the aim is to be seen as one logical organisation (operationally and in ethos).
