TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
Introduction:
In the past year of 2025, we have seen many changes which have had a positive impact on the church business. We have seen two Deacons ordained: Bro. Persaud and Bro. Anthony.
Items Covered:
-
The Manse
-
The Community Church of God By Laws
Pastor Mascall
BEC Building Extension Committee
Finance
Lost members of the Community Church of God
The Community Church of God
Members of the Church, we have arrived at another End Of Year for our AGM and as you can see we are in the process of building Phase 2/3.
1. We have seen the kitchen being ripped out with a promise to rebuild in phase 2/3 the Kitchen and toilets then go upstairs. We have started this journey and want to see the end results as soon as practically possible.
The Manse
1. The Manse has gne through extensive repair due to Subsidence affecting the rear of the building – An Insurance claim was made some time ago which was accepted. Following a survey they identified a number areas that needed repair.
There were trees which were said to be the main problem, they have since been cut down. The Insurance company (Simple Business) has completed their part and we engaged a Construction Company to complete the rest of the refurbishment. They also carried out complete refurbishment of the building after cutting down the trees. They were identified as the main cause of the subsidence. We have since moved on with this and have engaged another Project Manager/ Architect to complete the refurbishment. They have since completed a substantial amount of work on the Manse with Pastor Mascall being very instrumental in the negotiations, having an input liaising with the Architect and the construction company.
Following the completion of the refurbishment, which must be said looks very good. The Manse has since been Let via estate agent to a large family.
Sis Yvette will update further on the rental.

Music Team and Technicians
Once again, we thank the Music team and the Technical Team who week after week provide the Congregation and the Church the platform required to broadcast our service both far and wide. They are doing a wonderful job and what is most noticeable is the young ones are learning to sing and play an instrument. We are extremely thankful to the Music department who have shown their dedication and commitment along with the Praise and Worship on a Sunday morning. We are extremely thankful to the Music/Technical department who have shown their dedication.
Music IT Equipment Bro Mark Dowich has submitted his cost proposal to carry out improvement work in both the Music room and the Admin office. Both the black boxes. The BOT had agreed cost would be Approx £900 however this was not feasible at this time.
Charitable Donations
-
We would like to thank all members for their financial contribution and support towards the build of the Phase 2/3 Kitchen and toilets then go upstairs.
-
Our church members were asked to offer financial donations for the Building fund and we have seen the Church Members endeavour to give what they can.
-
Tithes and Offerings – We would like to thank all the Members for giving their tithes and offerings. The generosity of members in giving both their time and Tithes and financial gifts gives joy to the giver and the Church. This has allowed us to maintain our church building phase 2/3 Kitchen and toilets then go upstairs providing a continued service for our community.
-
We are very much aware that finances and time are both very precious times so the BOT members would like to thank each and every member with all our hearts in our church community that has helped us to keep going.
Building Extension Committee (BEC)
This project is in full flight with members giving willingly after Pastors enthusiastic call to donate so that we can achieve our goal for phase 2/3 Kitchen and toilets then go upstairs Pastor has been very positive he has stated we can achieve phase 2/3 Kitchen and toilets then go upstairs, meetings with the builders have taken place and that we would finish finish the project there is a lot of work yet to be undertaken.

The Land
Previously the BOT requested from Haringey Council clarification of the License Agreement between the Church and the Council. The BOT looked at the matter along with ideas coming from the congregation. The BOT agreed to pursue with Haringey Council the potential of planning permission.
Trustees' Report Finance
We continue working closely together with Sis Yvette Lawrence, of the Finance Department, we have ensured that the financial obligations we have to the members of the church are maintain ed throughout. We would like to put the governance of the church in line with the needs of its members Sis Yvette will provide a full breakdown of the finances.
Pastor Mascall
We would like to thank our Pastor for all that he has done this year. He has continued to maintain church service. He leads prayer meetings and has also conducted weddings and Funerals. Pastor has supported many of us members through the loss of our loved ones and regularly catches up with members to see that they are well. Throughout these testing times Pastor has remained steadfast in his love for God and his church family. We have seen first-hand and Witnessed the Water Baptism of 11 candidates at the Church from as young as 5yrs to mature candidates indicating that the Church is growing. Pastor and his family went on holiday to his native Trinidad, and we were blessed with their safe return.
Respectfully submitted to the Members of the Community Church of God by the Board of Trustees. End of Year Dec 2025

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
a. Going concern
After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.
Structure, governance and management
a. Constitution
The Church of God Reformation Movement is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Trust deed.
b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees
The management of the Company is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Trust deed.
Statement of Trustees' responsibilities
The Trustees (who are also the directors of the Company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law, the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
-
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material 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 Company will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of The Church of God Reformation Movement ('the Company')
I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2025.
Responsibilities and Basis of Report
As the Trustees of the Company (and its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the Company's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent Examiner's Statement
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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
-
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for 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)].
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 accounts to be reached.

THE CHURCH OF GOD REFORMATION MOVEMENT (A Company Limited by Guarantee)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
1. Accounting policies
1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
The Church of God Reformation Movement meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
1.2 Income
All income is recognised once the Company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
1.3 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 allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
1.4 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, .
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
Freehold property

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
1. Accounting policies (continued)
1.5 Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
1.6 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
1.7 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as a finance cost.
1.8 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Company and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Company for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
