The post of General Secretary will be appointed by the voting members of the Management Committee. The Management Committee shall establish a Council of Reference made up of one representative (Pastor or Elder ) from each of the Associated Churches, or a substitute as approved and empowered by the Associated Church leadership, from each of the Associated Churches. The AGM will elect officers from nominations drawn together by the Committee on Nominations, members of the Management Committee and Accredited Workers and also confirm co-opted members as recommended by the Management Committee. The Director acts as the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Management Committee. No remuneration is paid to the members of the committee for work on that committee. ## **Induction and training of new trustees** Officers are drawn from amongst the officers of Associated Churches and are familiar with the workings of the C&MA. The trustees seek to keep up with their responsibilities by way of online engagement with available expertise at least annually. In order to make trustees aware of their legal responsibilities, all current trustees have been made aware of CC3 'The Essential Trustee'. ## **Organisational structure** The charity consists of Associated Churches within the United Kingdom. The charity is run by a Management Committee that meets approximately four times a year. The Management Committee is made up of up to five voting members including officers - Director, Deputy Director and Treasurer. The post of General Secretary is appointed by the voting members of the Management Committee. They receive advice from the Council of Reference. ## **Related parties** The charity is part of and is affiliated to the worldwide organisation known as The Alliance World Fellowship which was born out of the work of The Christian & Missionary Alliance in over 50 countries. The charity is autonomous within the United Kingdom. ## **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. Reviews of risk and the affairs of the charity are carried out when the accounts are approved by the finance committee in advance of the annual conference. The financial records are reviewed regularly by the Treasurer and in advance of submitting them to the finance committee. The accounts are examined by an independent examiner. Page 4 Document Ref: CAGR9-RTNYH-R9BCD-DHMYF Page 4 of 14 ## **Report of the Trustees - Continued For the Year Ended 31[st ] January 2022** ## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** ## **Objectives and aims** The primary object of the charity is to promote the Christian Faith in all parts of the world in accordance with the Doctrinal Statement and in line with the vision, mission and core values adopted and reviewed from time to time by members at the Annual General Meeting. Website www.cmalliance.org.uk. The Doctrinal Statement of Faith and the Vision, Mission and Core Values have also been provided for the Management Committee. ## **Significant activities** The current activities are primarily bringing together a network of small groups and churches of like Biblical mindset in the UK that encourage one another as a family and engage together in overseas projects arising from the charity’s membership of the Alliance World Fellowship. Funds are channelled through the charity for disaster relief and worker support in various countries which have included Lebanon, Syria, Bosnia Hercegovina. Mongolia, Spain, Guinea and France. Currently support for work is regularly to Spain, Guinea, Bosnia Hercegovina and Bulgaria. ## **Volunteers** The Christian and Missionary Alliance relies largely on volunteers to provide for the day to day running of the organisation. Without this aid C&MA(GB) estimates the staff costs would rise by £30,000. ## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** ## **Charitable activities** The Management Committee considers that the performance of the charity for the year has been satisfactory but recognises that additional income is required to sustain current levels of support to workers. Support has been given to personnel church planting and training. ## **Investment performance** The Management Committee are currently satisfied with the investment performance of the assets so far and have no plans to make any changes. ## **Internal and external factors** The Management Committee have made an assessment of the internal and external factors that may affect the financial statements and do not deem any factors material enough to have an impact. ## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** ## **Reserves policy** Cash is held in the bank to cover net current liabilities and the balances on the various funds. The objective is to develop partnerships in the United Kingdom and with the Alliance World Fellowship to increase giving. In the event that adequate income is not achieved activity will be reduced accordingly. Funds are available to maintain current level of activities for the foreseeable future. Page 5 Document Ref: CAGR9-RTNYH-R9BCD-DHMYF Page 5 of 14 ## **Report of the Trustees - Continued For the Year Ended 31[st ] January 2022** ## **Investment policy objectives** Under the Memorandum and Articles of association, the charity has the powers to borrow or raise money for the objects of the C&MA(GB) on such terms and (with such consents as are required by law) on such security as may be thought fit provided that the C&MA(GB) shall not undertake any permanent trading activities in raising funds for the objects of the C&MA(GB). Also, the charity has the powers to invest the money of the C&MA(GB) not immediately required for its objects in or on such investments, securities or property as may be thought fit, subject nevertheless to such conditions (if any) and such consents (if any) as may for the time being be imposed or required by law and subject to other constraints found within the Articles of Association. The remaining cash is to be invested in an instrument that is seen to be as low risk as possible in order to provide good stewardship of monies held by the charity. Overall the charity experienced a reasonably satisfactory year and hopes it will continue at the current level, or better, next year. This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. ## **ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD** **Tony Benham Treasurer** **Date:** 03-06-2022 Page 6 Document Ref: CAGR9-RTNYH-R9BCD-DHMYF Page 6 of 14 ## **Independent Examiner's Report To the Trustees of The Christian & Missionary Alliance (GB)** I report on the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 Jan 2022, which are set out on pages 1 to 4. ## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. The charity's gross income does not exceed £250,000 and I am competent with the necessary experience to undertake the examination. Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: - examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; - to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and - to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. ## **Basis of independent examiner's report** My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. ## **Independent examiner's statement** In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: (1) Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities have not been met; or - (2) To which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
