Congreg*tioDal Federation in Scotland
Congregational Churches are independent and each reS￿nSIble for their own affairs, but we are also
inter-dependent and members of the CongregationaI Federation.
The Congregational Federation in Scotland meets as an knca Council in September, November and
February. We are usually represented by Ivy Bar¢lay. The Area also holds an Assembly in June and a
Conference in October. These are hosted by different churches each year. Last year the assembly Wds
in Dundee and the Conference, at Coatdyke. Airdrie. We attended meetings by zoom.

Managersrrrnste¢$ Report 2025r26
Rev Dr Barclay has continued as Acting President chaiTing the Managers meetings. The managers met
in the normal cycle through to FebTuary 2026 but then cb2nged to only meeting every two months with
our lasi meeting having been in April.
The manag¢rs would likc to place on record the sincere thanks of the congregation to Jean Duncan for
her years of service as treasu￿. Jean h&8 finally been able lo fully pass on the b&on after a few years
of trying. She'll be a hard act to follow. We also need to thank Rev Dr Ivy Barclay who h&8 kept this in
good order when Jean w&8 unfit ts do so.
Several nll)ni￿ repairs were carried out over the year to the ¢hurcb buildings, most notably to the roof
and to the drain and downpipe at the back door. We had a small problem with a rat family in the
basement and we are still to hav¢ a third visit from East Ayrshire Council to enswe we are clear to
cover the holes in the vents. steps and stonework.
Some upgrades w¢r¢ made to the sound system with the pur¢l)ase of new microphones and the
replacement of some cables. Thanks again go to Jim Logan and his helpers for keeping the grass cut
and the grounds tidy and to Senga M¢Geary for keeping the premises clean.
We held OUT congregational meal in June1&8t year and we will continue WAth this again this year. The
Candle Tea was held as usual in December and was enjoyed by those in attendance. Mrs M
Farquharson took up the p)sl of Tea Convenor, appointed by the managers. We continued our long
standing partnerships with both Loudon Musical Society and Beechwood Nursery, both use the hall
facilities for their activities.
All trustees of the church are now fully PVG complianl able to work with both vulnerable adults and
children. These certificates will last for five years.
The 8ratefiJl thanks of the managers and the congregation go to Rev Dr Ivy Barclay for her sterlin8
work on behalf ofthe church. both as the spiritual leader and in all the other roles she fulfils. A servant
of the LORD in many ways. Thanks also go to the managers who put in lots of work often unnoticed,
keeping the church ￿nctionIng and looking good in many imp)rtant ways.

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year I. April 2025 to 31" March 2026 which are
enclosed.
Respeetive re8ponsibilitit8 of trustees and exAminer
The charitics trustees are responsible for the prq)aration of the accounts in accordance with the tern]s
of the Charities and TTUStee tnvestment(Scodand) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts(Scotland)
Regulations 2006. The cllarity trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation l O(1 ) (a) to
(c) of the Accounls Regulations does nol apply. It is my ￿5[K)nSIbIlity to examine the accounts as
rcquircd under section 44{1) ( c) of the Act and to stale whcther particular matters have come to rny
attention.
Basis of independent examiner's stitement
My examinalion is carried out in accordance with Regulation I l of the Charilies Accounts(Scotland)
Regulations 2006. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kepi by the charity and
a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes Consid￿atIOn of any
unusual items or disclosures in the accounty and seeks explanation from the trustees concerning such
matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in at) audit,
and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent examiner's statement
In the course of my examination, no matter h&8 come to my attention
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material Tespect the requirements..
(a) to ke￿ accountin8 r¢cords in accordance with Section 44(1) (a) of the 2005 Act and
Regulation 4 of the 2(K)6 Accounts Regulations. and
(b) to prepare accounts which accord wwith the accounting records and comply with
Regulation 9 of the 2(X)6 Accounts Regulations
have not been met, or
attention should bc drawn in Order to enable a proper
