TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORTconYd
Year ended 31 December 2022
PRINCIPAL ACTIVtTIES AND OBJEcrs
The principal activity remains the making known the Christian Gospel of the Lord Jesus
Christ through the advancement of religion and thereby providing a public benefit which
flows from the purposes of the church, including spiritual and moral development and care
for those in the community who are sick, disabled or bereaved.
GOVERNANCE
Magheragall Presbyterian Church is governed by the Kirk Session who are the charity
Trustees. The governing document is The Code, the book of the constitution and
government of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland. The Kirk Session has delegated the
temporal affairs of the congregation, including administering all funds and property
belon8ing to the congregation, to the Congre8ational Committee. The Kirk Session members
are ex-officio members of the Congregational Committee.
REVIEW
The Trustees are content that the objetts of the church are bein8 delivered in line with the
public benefit guidance issued by Charity Commission for N l. The church is open to all and
there is no harm flowing from the purposes of the charity. No private benefits ensue other
than to the Minister but these are considered incidental to and necessary for the work of
the church.
During 2022 most of our organisations returned to normal activities and whilst some of
them saw a drop in numbers others showed an increase. Sunday worship also returned to
normal although numbers in attendance were, on average, slightly down on pre-covid
times.
In 2022 the donations and contributions income for the general charitable activities of the
church decreased by 2.6% to £106.585. Investment income increased by 9.90A to £2,301.
The expenditure on charitable activities increased by 2.7% to £113,808 and establishment
expenses increased from £3,190 to £11,991, largely due to repairs to wall and railin8s at the
front of the church and hall facility.
The Trustees are grateful to the many volunteers who give their time to the charity through
serving on committees and working within the organisations of the church.

RISK MANAGEMENT
The Trustees regularly consider the reputational and financial risks that might arise and
review protocols and procedures in place to mitigate those risks.
TRUSTEES, RESPONSIBILITIES
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the annual report and the financial statements of
the congregation in accordance with applicable law and generally accepted accounting
practice. As the congregation's total income is less than £250,000 the Trustees have elerted
under Section 64131 of the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008 to prepare a receipts and
payments account and a statement of assets and liabilities.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficlent to
show and explain the congregation's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy, at
any time, its financial position. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the
con8re8ation and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detettion of
fraud and other irregularities.
