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 objects of the charity are to promote the Christian faith. ## **Significant activities** The principal fund-raising activity of the church is the offerings and donations made by the church congregation. The funds raised are used to support missionary work, both in the United Kingdom and abroad, to give scholarship support to students, and generally to give support and aid to those less well off in the community. ## **Public benefit** The trustees have taken The Charity Commission's specific and general guidance on public benefit (contained within the guidance publication "The Advancement of Religion for the Public Benefit" and with the revised guidance publication "Charities and Public Benefit") into consideration in preparing their statement on public benefit contained within this trustees' annual report. ## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** ## **Principal funding sources** The charity received donations, interest and Government support grants of £187,215 (2024: £135,668), which were the total incoming resources. Total expenditure incurred was £157,154 (2024: £157,328), resulting in a net surplus of £30,061 for the year (2024: deficit of £21,660). The trustees applied and shall continue to apply all accumulations of the income to charitable causes after making such provision for all expenditure on trust administration. ## **Reserves policy** The unrestricted funds reserve of the charity on 31 December 2025 amounted to £203,809 (31 December 2024: £173,748). It is the trustees' view that it is prudent to ensure that there are sufficient free reserves to provide financial flexibility throughout the year. The long-term aim is to use the reserves for the purchase of a site for a church. ## **FUTURE PLANS** The charity will continue to pursue its objectives as stated above. ## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** ## **Governing document** The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity. ## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** The trustees are all volunteers and have not been specifically recruited. ## **Risk management** The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. ## **REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE DETAILS** ## **Registered Charity number** 801352 Page 1 Docusign Envelope ID: D80CB51B-078D-8005-80C8-A101E5E4E889 **Kings Cross Korean Church** ## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2025** **Principal address** 25 Woodlands Avenue Worcester Park Surrey KT4 7AL ## **Trustees** C Choi Y Jung W Park ## **Independent Examiner** Kah Tan Basetax Limited 85 Tooting High Street, London, England SW17 0SU Approved by order of the board of trustees on 16 March 2026 and signed on its behalf by: W Park - Trustee Page 2 Docusign Envelope ID: D80CB51B-078D-8005-80C8-A101E5E4E889 ## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Kings Cross Korean Church** ## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Kings Cross Korean Church** I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Kings Cross Korean Church (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2025. ## **Responsibilities and basis of report** As the charity trustee 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 to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
