Kairos Enterprises Company Limited by Guarantee Trustees, Annual Report (Incorporating the Director's Report) Year Ended 31st March 2023 The 2022-2023 financial year was again an exceptionally busy year in Ark Communty Gardens. with many new volunteers joining our team and many signrficant developments on the site. Whilst it is always encouraging to see the physical developments and improved facilities we, as a Board, are continually reminding ourselves of the core mission of The Ark - 'To demonstrate the love of God to our community through the example of Jesus.. As the site gets busier, ensuring that this mission is upheld as the fundamental principal of our organisation drives the decisions taken by the Board. Accordingly, it is rrK)st encouraging to hear so many volunteers testrfy about the fellowship and support they have experienced from being part of our Ark family. It has been very encouraging to see the resumption of the Men's breakfasts and the Ladies craft groups & outings. We all experience times of challenges, disappointments. heatth issues. bereavements and relationship drfficutties. During such times we can feel very lonely and it is such a reassurance that we have an earthly famity within The Ark who genuinely care about those difficutt times and a heavenly father who is reaching out to hold our hand. On the stsff front, we had a signtficant change during the year, when our Director, John Nixon, tendered his resignation to enable him to take up a new post as manager of Castlewellan Castle Christian Conference Centre. The Board would like to thank John for his leadership and loyaty over his 2 ½ years with us and wish him God's richest blessing in his new role. It is lovely to see him and the family call with us regularly. The Board subsequently appointed J¢)anna Mccall to the position of Director. Joanna was well known to us all as a member of the Board and a very faithfvl and busy volunteer. She has been very enthusiastically re￿iVed by staff and volunteers. combining a real care for individuals with a continual desire to expand the work of the organisation. We have also seen some changes to our Board. Following Joanna's appointment as Director she had to resign from the Board, we also finally allowed John Dinnen to retire and would like to thank John for his massive inpLrt to our Board over the past few years. He has agreed that we can still use him for a bit of wisdom when requiredl It is also a joy to report that, Sin￿ our last report, 3 new Board Members have joined the Board, Jill Hamilton. Peter Barr and Stephen Barthorpe. who have realised that becoming a member of Board does not exempt you from weeding etc on site! On behalf of the Board, could l again thank our staff team for their hard work. dedication and ommitment to the Ark, and for the love and care that they show towards our volunteers. We truly are blessed by the team and the example they exhibtt to us all. On the financial front our accounts show a significant increase in both our income and outgoings. with an overall surplus over the year of just over £2000. As ststed in our reports in the past, we are keen to reduce our reliance on external funders - a source of income that can be unpredictable and unreliable. It is with this in mind that we made the big decision to open a coffee shop in our log cabin. As the date of opening falls wtthin the 202312024 financial year we will comment more in our next report. Preparations for this new venture did however impact signrficantly on operations this year. with the redevelopment of the potting shed into a new volunteer meeting room and kitchen. We also plan to construct a new potting shed and glasshouse beside the chicken enclosure. Joel and his teams have again been exceptionally busy onsite with various projects as follows: Construction of new tool shed in the garden field. Extension and renovation of the Men's Shed facilrties. Having taken feedback from our volunteers. we have signfficanty expanded the rtems stocked in the farm shop and customer feedback has been very posttive. The Children's Play Area has been completed and fenced in, much to the delight of our younger visitors. We had a very successful Christmas Fair onsite, which again required massive help from all our volunteers. Our growintyharvestintyre-potting teams have again been exceptionalty busy and the qualty and quantty of our produce continues to develop. The old Pigeon Club buildin8 has received a new roof & facelift and our flower exports have developed a beautiful frontage for our customers to enjoy.

Finally, could we again thank our fantastic leam of volunteers for their incredible suptK)rt during the year. Whilst it is very encouraging to see the developments onsite, we truly do recognise that those who come ihrough our gates are what the Ark is all aboul. As a Board we were conscious that we were embarking on some fairly major changes to our site and in March we organised a volunteer's coffee morning to provide inf0m￿tIOn on the plans and seek feedback and suggestions. We would encourage all volunteers to provide us with your views on how we can better deliver on our mission. With all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one anotber in love, eager to maintain the unity of the spirit in the bond of peac& Ephesians Ch.4 V2-3 Board of Directo ru5tees

Kairos Enterprises Company Limlted by Guarantee Notes to the Flnanclal Statements {conthiu•d) Year Ended 31st March 2023 Accountlng pollcles (contlnu•d) Tanglble assets Tangible assets are inrtially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revalualion less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. An increase in the carying amount of an a&set as a result of a revaluation. is recognised in other recognised gains and losses. unless it reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been recognised as expenditure wthin the ststement of financial activities. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a resutt of revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, ex￿pt to which it offsets any previous revaluation gain, in which case the k>ss is shown within other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activrties. Depreclation Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less tts residual value, over the useful economic lrfe of that asset as follows: Freehold property Computer Equipment 10% reducing balance 25% reducing balan Impaimient of flxed assets A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date. with the recoverable amount being estimaled where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible r￿￿erSal at each reporting date. For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an indtvidual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identrfiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other &￿ets or groups of assets. For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business cornbination is. from the acquisition date. allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned to those units. Flnanclal Instruments A financial asset or a financial Ilabilty is recognised onty when the charrty becomes a paty to the contractual provisions of the instrurnent. Basic financial instruments are inrtialty recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs.

Where investments in shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably. the investment is subsequently measured at fair value wtth changes in fair value recognised in income and expenditure. All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less impairment. Other financial instruments. including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value, unless payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate, in which case the assel is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes recognised in the statement of financial activities. with the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relalionship. Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting dale. If there is objective evidence of impairment. an impairment loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the statement of financial actwities in which the inilial gain was recognised. For all equty instruments regardless of signfficance. and other tinancial assets that are individually signfficant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets are erther assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar credtrt risk characteristics. Any reversals of impairment are recognised immediately, to the extent that the r￿lerSal does not resutt in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amounl would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised.
