**SEAFORD COMMUNITY CHURCH REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022** 

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

The object is to recruit others to the purposes and goals of the Church namely to become an active member of the Church who carries out the ministry of Jesus Christ particularly the recruiting and training of others as His disciples in introducing them to Him in person and training them in the values of the Church with a view to the ongoing multiplication of His followers. 

## **Public benefit** 

The Trustees confirm that they have due regard for the Charities Commission's general guidance on public benefit. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

Resources were directed into the advancement of the Christian faith both in the United Kingdom and overseas and gifts were made to both individuals and institutions for this purpose. A significant investment was made in the area of Christian training for the purpose of achieving the objective of the charity. 

In 2022 the trust continued in its ongoing vision and mission to be a functioning body of Christians who release the love of God in the power and demonstration of the Holy Spirit through the spiritual gifts appointed to each one. Equipping and training each person to know for themselves their identity as God's child and out of that security serve according to their own measure of grace and faith continued. Walking in day to day life with the Holy Spirit continued to be developed and we continued to take the message of the Father's love and our identity, purpose and calling as God's children both to our own nation and to the Ukraine through online training and financial support. 

Seahaven Storehouse, our community food bank, has provided over £57,000 of food supplies as expressions of the Father's love to local families with continued increased demand for its services. This has only been possible through the generosity of members of the public and local voluntary groups who have given their money, time and energy to serve their community. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

Full details of the results are shown in the financial statements that accompany this report. 

We are pleased to report the church members have continued to give generously and enable the trust to meets its ministry commitments. 

Funds available are sufficient to permit the Church to continue in operation in the medium term. The Trustees are satisfied that the charity is able to meet it's liabilities as they fall due. 

## **Investment policy and objectives** 

The Trust Deed authorises the trustees to make and hold investments using general funds of the Charity, but no such investments are presently held. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The policy of the Church is to maintain sufficient reserves which, in the opinion of the trustees allows them to cover management and administration costs and plan for the following years giving. At the year end the general reserve funds were £83,645.

**INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF SEAFORD COMMUNITY CHURCH** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Seaford Community Church** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Seaford Community Church (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2022. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). 

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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. 

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.

Income from investments is included in the year in which it is receivable. 

## **EXPENDITURE** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, 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 accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.Direct charitable expenditure are those costs incurred directly on the furtherance and support of the objects of the charity. 

Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

Freehold property - 2% on cost Musical Equipment - 20% on reducing balance Fixtures and fittings - 20% on reducing balance Computer equipment - 20% on reducing balance

## **FUND ACCOUNTING**

Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes.

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued** 

## **DONATED GOODS** 

In order to achieve our mission the members of the church are helped and encouraged to volunteer their time, money, giftings and skills according to each person�s unique abilities and circumstances. All aspects of church life and ministry both internal and to the community at large are only achievable because of this voluntary serving. 

The food bank is run by volunteers from the church alongside members of the public who give their time up to help. Donations of money and food come from the community and members of the church. 

Ministry Schools are run with the help of team members who often serve at their own expense giving their time and meeting their own financial costs. 

It is not possible to quantify the amounts of donated goods and services and therefore these have not been included in the accounts.
