Trustees Review of the Year: Christian Ecology Link Limited, known as "CEL" or by its trading name of "Green Christian" seeks to encourage and resource churches and individual Christians to address environmental issues by providing regular mailings, producing resource materials and arranging events. When it is in line with our aims we seek to maximise the impact of our work by collaborating with other Christian bodies with environmental programmes. We are represented on the Environmental Issues Network of Churches Together in Britain & Ireland.
In 2021 Green Christian's usual programme of activities continued to be impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic, with in-person events mainly replaced by online Zoom meetings. The Board met on Zoom throughout the year, and the Annual Members' Meeting was held on Zoom in November. Fortnightly Zoom workshops were held on various themes, from Forest Church to net zero carbon and from local groups to biodiversity. However, as the year went on and restrictions eased, we were able to hold our first On The Road Together event since the pandemic began – in Colchester, in October. Also in October an in-person retreat was held at Ringsfield retreat centre in Suffolk. Green Christian resumed holding stalls and providing speakers for some outside events as well.
In February we marked the Climate Coalition's Show The Love campaign by asking members to write prayers on this theme. In November, Green Christian was represented in Glasgow during the COP26 climate summit, with members holding daily prayer vigils and other gatherings at Govan & Linthouse Parish Church in the city. We also marked COP26 by producing Why Faith Matters At COP26, an infographic resource funded by St Mary's Church Islington, which was widely shared and distributed.
Green Christian was active on Facebook and Twitter, and from May onwards, on Instagram as well. We published two issues of Green Christian Magazine and our annual Storm of Hope brochure.
Each of Green Christian's specific initiatives developed further in 2021. Joy In Enough, our vision for a new economics, saw the launch of Plenty!, a resource for use by churches and community groups. In October we also began to focus our regular Zoom events on Joy In Enough with a series of webinars exploring Plenty.
The Way Of Life Community continued to grow, and established a network of regional groups to increase mutual support.
Borrowed Time, our eco grief initiative, ran a further series of Deep Waters (an 8 week journey for groups) and began developing another programme, Cloud & Fire, which will have a more theological focus.
Green Christian explored various opportunities for outreach through the year. We met with Diocesan Environmental Officers online in March. We set up a Zoom group for members in Scotland and also explored possibilities for cooperation with EcoCongregation Scotland. The convenor of our Participation Group spoke to two online gatherings for younger adults, one run by Faith Justice and the other by Student Christian Movement.

We continue to produce a wide range of educational materials in print and on the website, including two issues of our magazine Green Christian and one issue of our annual Storm of Hope pamphlet. Our prayer diary is emailed to over 500 people.
The work of CEL/ Green Christian is mainly carried out by volunteers, Trustees, and others from their own homes other than a few hours of paid administrative work each week. We have benefited again in 2020 from an annual grant from the Passionists which enables us to employ three people to forward the work of Joy in Enough. Green Christian membership numbers have increased to 1052, including 29 churches, and 5 magazine subscribers. Our members pay membership subscriptions and donations. 107 new members joined during 2021.
Financial Review :
CEL is in a strong financial position at the end of 2021. Subscription income has increased and the organisation received a legacy of £5,000. In addition the continued shift to online working enforced by the Coronavirus pandemic resulted in a slight decrease of expenditure despite increased activity.
The balance of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents at the end of 2021 was £80,487 (2020: £60,362). This includes £4,132 in amounts taken for Life membership of CEL and held in a reserve to provide income for future years, and a designated fund of £9,509 representing the unspent balance of a legacy of £19,513 received in 2012. This designated fund is kept for use on specific projects otherwise unfunded and none of it has been spent in 2021 or 2020. Unrestricted net assets at the end of 2021 were £71,836 (2020: £52,329)
In addition there are restricted funds held at the end of 2021 of £1,667 for the Joy in Enough project.
It is a policy of the Trustees to keep a minimum of £6,000 in cash and cash equivalents in a general reserve to meet current commitments in furtherance of the aims of the charity, such as publications to which subscribers are entitled and the payment of conference expenses in the event of such a conference being under subscribed. In order to facilitate the employment of paid staff to meet growth objectives a further sum of £6,000 is identified to meet employment liabilities. Reserves continue to be above this level, enabling expansion in activities to take place.
The majority of income is received as subscriptions and donations from members and other sympathetic individuals and organisations. The single largest area of expenditure is the production of a magazine twice yearly which is distributed free to members, occasionally sold at events and frequently distributed free of charge as a means of furthering the aims of the charity.
Plans for the Future: CEL / Green Christian will continue to provide resources and events in accordance with our mission as described above under ‘Principal Activities and Public Benefit Statement’. In addition, at a time of deepening awareness of the climate emergency amongst the general public, we will continue to review the means by which we seek to achieve our mission by, for example:
-
completing our strategic review
-
developing outreach to younger adults, to church environmental representatives and to members throughout the UK.
-
rolling out our Joy In Enough Plenty! Programme
-
developing a new programme Cloud and Fire to address climate anxiety
-
using both zoom and in person events to further our aims.

Risk Statement: The Trustees have reviewed the risks to which a small charity operating with few employees is exposed. They believe that appropriate procedures are in place to identify, monitor and review these risks on a regular basis.
Responsibilities of Directors (also known as Trustees): Company Law requires the
Trustees to prepare accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these accounts the Directors are required to –
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent
-
Follow applicable accounting standards, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the accounts
-
Prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The Directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the accounts 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.
In preparing the above report, the Directors have taken advantage of special exemptions available to small companies.
This report was approved by the Directors and signed on their behalf by

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
1 Statutory Information
The charity is a charitable company limited by guarantee and is incorporated in the United Kingdom. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.
2 Accounting Policies
These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention.
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the "Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) ("the Charities SORP"), with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland ("FRS 102"), with the Companies Act 2006 and with the Charities Act 2011. The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity as set out in FRS 102.
The principles adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below.
a) Going concern
The trustees (who are the charitable company's directors for the purposes of company law) have assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. In particular the trustees have considered the charity's forecasts and projections and the possible implications should projected income and / or expenditure vary unexpectedly. The trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future. The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements. In making this assessment the trustees have considered how Covid-19 might affect projections.
b) Income
Income including investment income is recognised in the period in which the charity becomes entitled to receipt, the amount receivable can be measured with reasonable certainty, and receipt is probable. For the most part, income is generally recognised when it is received. Income is only deferred when the charity has to fulfil conditions before becoming entitled to it or where the donor has specified that the income is to be expended in a future period.
Income from donations and legacies includes:
-
Recoverable gift aid. This is recognised when the related donation is received. Gift aid that has not been recovered by the
-
i) balance sheet date is included as a debtor.
-
The charity relies on volunteers to carry out many of its activities. However, in accordance with the SORP, the value of these services has not been included in these financial statements as they cannot be reliably measured.
-
Legacies. Income from legacies is recognised when a distribution is received from the estate or, if earlier, when the charity has
-
ii) been notified that a distribution will be made and the amount receivable can be measured reliably.
Income from charitable activities represents income receivable from goods, services and facilities supplied in furtherance of the charity's charitable objects. It includes income from events.
Subscription income is taken into account when received, and investment income when receivable
c) Expenditure
- Expenditure, including irrecoverable VAT, is recognised when it is incurred or, if earlier, when a legal or constructive obligation for a payment arises provided that it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
The cost of raising funds is not significant and has not been separately disclosed.
Governance costs, which are included in expenditure on charitable activities but are identified separately in the notes to the accounts, includes costs associated with the independent examination of the financial statements, compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements and any other expenditure incurred on the strategic management of the charity.
d) 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 charity. Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. Restricted funds are donations which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors; they include donations received from appeals for specific activities or projects.
e) Taxation The company is a registered charity; it has taken advantage of the various reliefs from taxation available to charities and no tax is payable on the charity's income.
f) Financial instruments
The charity's financial assets and financial liabilities all qualify as basic financial instruments, as defined by FRS102. Except for loans, creditors and debtors are measured at their expected settlement value (normally the amount of cash that the charity expects to pay or receive). The charity recognises liabilities for the principal of those loans that remains outstanding at the year end (i.e. the liabilities exclude any interest chargeable on the loans in future years).
