CAUSEWAY COAST VINEYARD CHURCH churtered accountants TRUSTEES. REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS. REPORT) {CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 More about us In 2010 we bought a seven-acre site (part of an old timber yard) in the centre of Coleraine and in October 2012 moved into a purpose built 33,000 square foot church venue. We worship together on a Sunday through morning and evening services either on a Sunday night or Wednesday worship wth around 700 people of all ages gathering on average each month as of NovemberlDecember 2024. Of course, what happens through Sunday and other weekly Se￿iceS is only a small part of how we seek to impact our community. We have continued to be involved in local schools and in 2024 had one staff member dedicated to this work supported by a team of loyal volunteers and other staff. Our goal is to partner wth local schools to aid them in the work they do with the young people in our Community- in 2024 we have also been running school assemt4ies, lunch clubs, homework clubs, Alpha events and courses helping pupils prepare for secondary education. We regulady pray for and see healing and much of this happens on our streets on a Saturday morning, which we have been doing Sin￿ 2005. Our volunteers have really stepped in to serve our I￿al community who have experienced real need in this season especially with the rising cost of living. We are delighted to see people give of their time to serve people with love and dignity. The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake. New trustees V￿11 receive appropriate induction and relevant training. We have a risk management assuran￿ framework in operation. This covers areas such as safeguardirrfJ processes for children and vulnerable adults. staff training and development, health and safety for staff and public around the site as well as HR, IT and financial risks (covered by our reserves policy}. Two of our trx)ard members sit on a risk management su￿coMmittee alongside the Operations Director. Risks are raised, discussed and measures put in place to mitigate the risk. Risk is a standing agenda item on our board meetings and the risk management assurance framework is reviewed formally at the board meeting every six months. Achievements and perforniance We are passionate about being a missional, supematural, compassionate and healthy church community pursuing God's heart for our community In January 2024 we moved to having one moming service at 10.30am. During the calendar year Jan- Dec 24 our adult attendan￿S saw a decrease of 26 % however we've also been continuing to broadcast our services so those who are unable to make it along can still be a part of the church. Many newcomers to our in-person seNices will have tuned in online first. Our Easter services on Good Friday, Easter Sunday moming and our Easter Sunday baptisms were incredible times where we had 8 people getting baptised and we saw around 1,350 people connect in our 3 weekend services. On Easter Monday over 350 gathered at Downhill Forest for our annual Easter Egg hunt. We've continued to work th local schools and hosted a BBQ at Harpurs Hill School fete Connecting and feeding around 400 people and in addition to this hosted an A-level's BBQ in June Our Under 18 ministries have gone from strength to strength as well. We have Sunday environments, mid-week groups, mums and toddlers care, and other community-based projects. We are currently reaching anywhere between 200 - 300 under 18s monthly wthin our gathered environments in the building and others that we can't quantify outside of this within the Community. Over these last number of months, we've seen growlh and health in the Itves of our young people seeing many of them bringing friends along to Church, stepping into leadership and service in various forms on Sun(ky evening wilh youth and mornings with our wider church family. It has been amazing to see them step out in worship, welcome, hospitality, hosting the service and some even speaking. ids. CAUSEWAY COAST VINEYARD CHURCH churtered accountants TRUSTEES. REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS. REPORT) {CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 We have been so encouraged as some of our young people have started Bible studies in their schools independent of their existing school structures and without the support of teachers. We have seen Iwo start up in in different schools seeing between 20 - 30 young people connect in each one. Our summer trips have been more popular than ever with a group of 30 young people attending Summer Madness with 6 boys encountering Jesus for the first time or making a recommitment. We also had a group of 31 young people head to a Christian festival called 'Move' this summer. In our Kids environments we've been going through the Bible in a year with Nicky Gumbel and it has also been a busy year for us in schools as most months we connect with over 2000 kids, young people and adult staff, through assemblies, lessons and after-school dubs. We have been really encouraged by positive feedback from several school staff about the impact of some of the Jesus-focused messages we were able to deliver. At the beginning of June, we welcomed 20 teams of Primary Schools from all over the Causeway area to our church venue. Battle of the Brains had been a big quiz that y￿ hadn't put on since before lock-down. We have taken a pause from running our ESOM programme and will revisit our discipleship and intemships in 2025. We've run a variety of connection events in the year ￿ryth a wonderful volunteer appreciation night in January where we had a lot of fun and a Tiki Bar theme. In June for volunteer week we honoured our amazing volunteers with cupcakes on a Sunday (350 in all} and during the week all our weekly volunteers got cupcakes as well with an additional 150 being ordered for our satellite volunteers as well. At Causeway Coast Vineyard our small groups are very important and we run these groups of up to 20 people who meet weekly to connect with God and one another. These groups are open to the whole community. They are places to connect, make new friends. deepen relationships. encounter God's love and have the occasional party. We have discovered that big moments in lrfe often happen in the small comers of life. There are a range of small groups.. core groups- induding weekly connection over coffee and studying a bible passage or book courses- including prayer groups and bible study family central groups- including marriage, pre-mamage and singles groups interest groups- induding keep fit. sewing. table tennis. etc. life stage groups- induding groups for 20 somethings, women's groups, etc. During 2024 we ran 70 different groups over 3 terms which had over 375 unique people connecting and growing in their faith within them. Throughout December in the run up to Christmas 2024 we ran a variety of events induding Ladies Wreath Making. Family Movie and a Men's Bonfire and our Generation Sunday. We also had 610 people attend our service on Christmas eve. and 300 attend a Christmas candlelight service the previous Sunday which was a great su¢¢ess. ids. CAUSEWAY COAST VINEYARD CHURCH churtered accountants TRUSTEES. REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS. REPORT) {CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 Financial review The results for the year are set out on page 11. The company returned net incoming resources for the year of £62.441 (2023 incoming resources of £6,200). At 31 December 2024, the total funds of the charity amounted to £2,138.302 {2023= £2,075,861) comprising restricted funds of £5,25812023: £9,377) and unrestricted funds of £2,133,044 (2023. £2,066,484). The charity transferred £2,000 to a designated fund for significant expenditure on the facilities. At 31 December 2024, the balan￿ on this fund was £91,721 {2023: £89,721). At 31 December 2024, the charity's bank debt amounted to £714.846 (2023: £807,964). The trustees are confident that the bank debt will be repaid out of ongoing surplus incoming reSoUr￿S and as such will be able to meet its ongoing working capital requirements. The principal risk faced by the charity continues to be the potential of receiving insufficient fLnds to continue its activities. The charity seeks to mitigate this risk in the following ways= Unrestricted reserves are held which are sufficient to cover The continuance of operations given a 250/0 reduction in unrestricted income, for a period of S6 months, together with any specific liabilities which are outside of the nomial scope of activities Appropriate designated reserves are held for significant long-term expenditure Based on the 2025 budget, the range of reserves considered by the trustees to be adequate (as calculated above) is be￿een £73.68k- £147.36k. Total general unrestricted reserves (comprising of cash and debtors, less short-term liabilities) was £28k {2023'. £14k), however including the designated fund. which is not restricted, this figure would be £120k.

Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance wth Intemational Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAS (UK)} and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are fvrther described in the Auditors ￿sponsIbl1111eS for the audit ol the financial statements section of our report. IAle are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial ststements in the UK, including the FRC'S Ethical standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Conclusions relating to going concern In auditing the financial statements. we have conduded that the trustees. use of the going concem basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have perfomied, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the twstees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. Other information The other information comprises the information induded in the annual report other than the fina￿la1 statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other infomiation contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other infomiation and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other infomiation and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or appar￿1 material misstatements, we are required to detemiine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in tIE financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed. we condude that there is a material misstatement of this other infonnation, we are required to reF)Ort that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. ids. CAUSEWAY COAST VINEYARD CHURCH churtered accountants INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF CAUSEWAY COAST VINEYARD CHURCH Matters on which we are required to report by exception We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports} Regulations 2015 require us to report to you if, in our opinion= the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the trustees, report., or sufficient accounting records have not been kept: or the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records., or we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. Responsibilities of trustees As explained more fully in the statement of trustees. responsibilities, the trustees, who are also the directors of the charity for the purpose of company law, are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view. and for such internal control as the trustees 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 charity's ability to continue as a going concem, disdosing. as applicable. matters related to going concern and using the going concem basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to Cease operations, or have no realistic altemative but to do so. Auditorfs responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements We have been appointed as auditors under section 65 of the Charities Act (Northem Ireland) 2008 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assuran￿ 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 our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assuran￿ but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance th ISAS {UKI will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users tsken on the basis of these financial ststements. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, induding fraud, is detsiled below. Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities induding fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. was as follows.. the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competen￿, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise n0￿MplianCe with laws & regulations- we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the charity through discussions with trustees and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience of the sector., we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the company. induding the Companies Act 2006, taxation legislation and data protection, antibribery, employment, environmental and health and safety legislation., we assessed the exient of compliance with the la￿￿ and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence. identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. ids. CAUSEWAY COAST VINEYARD CHURCH chart•r•d accountants INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF CAUSEWAY COAST VINEYARD CHURCH We assessed the sUs￿ptibIlity of the charitys finanaal statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by.. making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their kno￿edge of actual. suspected and alleged fraud: considering the intemal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations., and performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships., reviewing joumal entries to identify unusual transactions- assessing whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias- investigating the rationale behind any significant or unusual transactions. In response to the risk of irregularities and n0￿Complian￿ wth laws and regulations, we designed prO￿dureS which included, but were not limited to.. agreeing financial statements disdosures to underlying supporting documentation., reading the minutes of meetings of those board of trustees- enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims- reviewing legal correspondence. There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of norFcomp1ian￿. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-complian￿ with laws and regulations to enquiry of the trustees and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion. A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council's website at.. https'.11 www.frc.org.uklaudilorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report. Use of our report This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports} Regulations (Northem Ireland) 2015. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's 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 ac￿pt or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Restricted funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for a specific purpose, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose. 1.4 Income Income is recognised when the charity is legally enlitled to it after any perf0mlan￿ conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably. and rt is probable that income will be received. Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless perfomiance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation. Legacies are recognised on re￿Ipl or otherwise if the charity has been nokn'fied of an impending distribub-on, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset. Assets for distribution are recognised only when distributed. Assets given for use by the charity are recognised when receivable. Stocks of undistributed donated goods are not valued for balance sheet purposes. Tumover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods and serVI￿S provided in the nomial course of business. 14- ids.

Only assets with a value of £500 or more are capitalised. Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases= Freehold land and buildings Fixtures and fittings 20A straight line on buildings 150h reducing balan The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference be￿een the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities. 1.7 Impairment of fixed assets At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such Ind￿atIOn exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to detemiine the extent of the impaimient loss (if any). Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use. the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pr&tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash fiows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in incomel (expenditure for the year, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease. Recognised impairment losses are reversed rf, and only if, the reasons for the impaimient loss have ceased to apply. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exce￿ the carrying amount that would have been detemiined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately. unless the relevant asset is carried in at a revalued amount. in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase. 1.8 Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. 15- ids.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and liabilities are offset, wth the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simullaneously. Basic financial assets Basic financial assets, which indude debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets dassified as receivable within one year are not amortised. Basic financial liabilities Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. Debt instruments are subsequently Ca￿led at amortised cost. using the effective interest rate method. Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or Se￿iceS that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are dassified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non for pension contributions owed from Vineyard Compassion, a charity with the same directors. Included within expenditure were amounts totalling £nil (2023 - £2,267) for Fuel poverty Offering to Vineyard Compassion, a charity wth the same directors.
