**__________________________________________________________________________________________** 

The Trustees present their report and the audited financial statements for the year ended 31st December 2020. 

## **Principal Activity and Review of the Trust** 

The Trust is comprised of an apostolic group of men whose mission is: 

- To assist the Church in its efforts to form Christian communities whose centre of life is the Eucharist; 

- To allow the mystery of the Eucharist to take hold of their lives so completely that they live this mystery fully and proclaim its meaning through various apostolates; 

- To respond to the hungers of the human family with the riches of God’s love manifested in the Eucharist; 

- To strive to make Christ in the Eucharist better known and loved through prayer in the presence of the Eucharist and an active apostolic life; 

- To proclaim the Eucharist as a powerful force of renewal for Church and Society. 

They commit themselves to carry out this mission in collaboration with the laity. 

They combine prayer and work in order that the entire world may be totally transformed into people of God, the body of the Lord and Temple of the Holy Spirit. In solidarity with those who are working for genuine human advancement, they are alert to the social implications of their actions. 

They carry out their Eucharistic mission especially in city centre shrines and parishes. ‘Their  shrines  are  centres  of  Eucharistic  community  and  evangelisation,  places  of adoration, celebration and reconciliation, oasis’s of peace in the heart of the city.  ‘They make our parishes into authentic communities  shaped by the Eucharist, source  and centre of their life’’. 

There has been no significant change in these activities during the financial year ended 31st December 2020. 

## **Financial Results** 

The (deficit) for the financial year amounted to £59,433 (2019:£124,279) 

At  the  end  of  the  financial  year,  the  Trust  had  assets  in  excess  of  liabilities  of STG£2,343,630 (2019:£2,406,063) 

## **Going Concern**

## **Trustees**

## **Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities** 

The Trustees of the Trust are required by the Constitution of the Trust to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Trust as at the end of the financial year and of the results for that period. The financial statements are to be prepared in accordance with applicable law and regulations. 

Charity law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial  year.  Under  that  law  the  Trustees  have  elected  to  prepare  the financial  statements  in  accordance  with  the  United  Kingdom  Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accountings Standards and Applicable  Law)  including  FRS  102  –  ‘The  Financial  Reporting  Standard Applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’, Section 1A (Small Entities). Under 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 Trust and of the profit or loss of the Trust for the period. 

In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; Make reasonable prudent judgements and accounting estimates; Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis, unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Trust will continue in operation 

The  Trustees  are  also  responsible  for  maintaining  adequate  accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Trust’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Trust. They are responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Trust including the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

## **Trustees’ Statement on relevant audit information** 

The Trustees have confirmed that: 

- So far as they are aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the Trust’s auditor is unaware, and 

- The Trustees have taken all the steps that ought to be taken in order to be aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the Trust’s auditor is aware of that information 

On behalf of the Trustees:

## **CONGREGATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT CHARITABLE TRUST UK INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CONGREGATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT CHARITABLE TRUST UK** 

## **Report on the audit of the financial statements** 

## **Opinion** 

I  have  audited  the  financial  statements  of  Congregation  of  the  Blessed  Sacrament Charitable Trust UK for the year ended 31st December 2020 which comprise the Income Statement, the Balance Sheet, and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard” applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland, applying Section 1A of that Standard. 

In my opinion, the financial statements: 

- Give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities and financial position of the Trust as at 31st December 2020 and of its deficit for the year then ended 

- Have  been  properly  prepared  in  accordance  with  Financial  Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland, applying Section 1A of that Standard 

## **Basis of Opinion** 

I conducted my audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (Ireland) (ISAs (Ireland)) and applicable law. My responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of my report. I am independent of the Trust in accordance with ethical requirements that are relevant to my audit of the financial statements in Ireland, including the Ethical Standard issued by the Auditing and Accounting Supervisory Authority (IAASA), and the provisions available for small entities, in the circumstances set out in Note 10 to the financial statements and I have fulfilled my ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. 

I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion. 

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

I have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which ISA (Ireland) 570 require me to report to you where: 

- the  Trustees'  use  of  the  going  concern  basis  of  accounting  in  the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate; or 

- the Trustees have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Trust's ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period  of  at  least  twelve  months  from  the  date  when  the  financial statements are authorised for issue. 

## **Other Information** 

The Trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and my Auditors Report thereon. My opinion on the financial statements does not cover the 

6 



**CONGREGATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT CHARITABLE TRUST UK INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CONGREGATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT CHARITABLE TRUST UK** 

## **______________________________________________________________** 

other information and except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in my report, I do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

In connection with my audit of the financial statements, my responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or 

my knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If I identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, I am required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based in the work I have performed, I conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, I am required to report that fact. 

I have nothing to report 

## **Respective responsibilities and restrictions on use Responsibilities of Trustees for the financial statements** 

As explained more fully in The Statement of Trustees’ Responsibility on Page 4 the Trust's Trustees  are  responsible  for  preparing  the  financial  statements  in  accordance  with applicable accounting standards and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view,  and  for  such  internal  control  as  they  determine  is  necessary  to  enable  the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements  the  Trustees  are  responsible  for  assessing  the Trust's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing as applicable, matters related to the going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees intends to cease operations or has no alternative but to do so. 

## **Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** 

My objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditor's Report that includes my opinion.  Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (Ireland) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 

A further description of my responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located  on  the  IAASA’s  website  at: https://www.iaasa.ie/publications/ISA-700-(Ireland). This description forms part of my Auditors Report. 

## **The purpose of my audit work and to whom we owe our responsibilities** 

This Report is made solely to the Trustees of Congregation of the Blessed Sacrament Charitable Trust UK. My audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the

## **______________________________________________________________** 

Trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an Auditors' Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Trust and its Trustees as a body, for my audit work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.

**CONGREGATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT CHARITABLE TRUST UK YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2020** 

**___________________________________________________________________________________________________** 

## **2.5 Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation** 

Tangible fixed assets are stated at historic cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is not provided on freehold land and buildings. On the other fixed assets it is provided so as to write down the cost of assets to their estimated useful lives as follows: 

Fixtures, Fittings & equipment - Motor Vehicles - 

5% Straight line - 20% Reducing balance 

## **2.6** 

## **Investments** 

Investments  held  as  fixed  assets  are  stated  at  cost  less  provision  for  any permanent  diminution  in  value.  Income  from  investments  together  with  any related tax credit is recognised in the Income Statement account in the year in which it is receivable. 

## **2.7 Taxation and deferred taxation** 

The Trust is a not for profit organisation and is not subject to taxation on its surplus of income. 

- **2.8 Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash  is  represented  by  cash  in  hand  and  deposits  with  financial  institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more that 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value. 

## **2.9 Trade and other creditors** 

Trade and other creditors are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case the they are stated at cost. 

## **2.10 Foreign currencies** 

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at the rates of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. The resulting exchange differences are dealt with in the Income Statement. 

## **2.11 Cash flow exemption** 

The Trust has availed of the exemption under Section 1A of FRS 102 to not prepare a Statement of Cash Flows. 

## **3. Significant accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty** 

The  preparation  of  these  financial  statements  requires  the  Trustees  to  make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of polices and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Judgements and 

13 



**CONGREGATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT CHARITABLE TRUST UK YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2020** 

## **___________________________________________________________________________________________________** 

estimates are continually evaluated and are based on historical experiences and other  factors,  including  expectations  of  future  events  that  are  believed  to  be reasonable under the circumstances. The Trust makes estimates and assumptions concerning  the  future.  The  resulting  accounting  estimates  will,  by  definition, seldom equal the actual results. 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions  to  accounting  estimates  are  recognised  in  the  period  in  which  the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that 

period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

## **9. Post balance sheet events** 

There have been no events since the year end which would require disclosure in the financial statements.. 

## **10.   Provision for small entities** 

In common with other entities of this size we use our auditors to assist with the preparation of the financial statements 

## **11** . **Ultimate controlling party** 

The ultimate controlling party is the Trustees acting in concert 

## **12.   Capital Commitments** 

There are no capital commitments at the year end 

## **13. Going concern** 

As at 31st December 2020 there was a deficit of expenditure over income of £59,433  (2019:  £124,279)  and  there  were  assets  in  excess  of  liabilities  of £2,343,630 (2020:€2,406,063). 

During the first quarter of 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic  spread from Asia to Europe and subsequently worldwide. The initial effect of this was a worldwide slow down in economic activity  and  the  loss  of jobs  across  many  businesses  and  sectors.  In Ireland and the UK there have been government restrictions which have resulted in many  business  closing  temporarily.  There  was  also  a  ban  on  mass  gatherings implemented in an effort to slow down the spread of the virus. As a result the churches of the Trust had to close their doors to their communities and the Trust was not been able to collect its regular donations and have its usual plate collections in the usual manner. However, online collections and mass payments have continued. 

The Trustees have worked to reduce other costs during these periods of temporary closure. The Trustees are satisfied that the Trust has sufficient assets and cash flow available to meet its day to day operations costs for the foreseeable future. This 

16 



**CONGREGATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT CHARITABLE TRUST UK YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2020** 

**___________________________________________________________________________________________________** 

assertion is made for a period of not less than twelve months from the signing of the financial statements. The financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis. 

## **14. Reserves** 

Included with other reserves is a special reserve totalling £281,941. This represents the Patrimony records and is a restricted funds. There was no movement on this reserve during the period under review. Other than the retained earnings reserve there was no movement on any of the other reserves during the period under review. 

## **15.Related Party Transactions**
