## **Perth: Inchture and Kinnaird Parish Church of Scotland Trustees Report Year ended 31[st] December 2024** 

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31[st] December 2024. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in Note A to the accounts and comply with the General Assembly Regulations for Congregational Finance, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard (version effective from 1 Jan 2015) applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland published 16 July 2014. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

The Church of Scotland is Trinitarian in doctrine, Reformed in tradition, Presbyterian in polity. It exists to glorify God and to work for the advancement of Christ’s Kingdom throughout the world. As a National Church, it acknowledges a distinctive call and duty to bring the ordinances of religion to the people in every Parish of Scotland through a territorial Ministry. It co-operates with other Churches in various ecumenical bodies in Scotland and beyond. 

Services of Public Worship are held in Inchture Church at 9.30am. A time of fellowship after the morning service, each Sunday is encouraged with tea, coffee, juice and biscuits served in Inchture Church. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

Attendance at Public Services average (on Sunday mornings) 30-40; with increases in attendances at the two stated Morning Communion Services. Maundy Thursday and Watchnight Services in the region of 30 and 80 respectively. The Sunday School roll is 8. The special School assemblies at Inchture Church at Easter and Christmas are open to parents and friends with the Church welcoming some 90 to 120 (including pupils) into the Church. 

A Linked Parishes Website has been developed which provides contact information regarding Church personnel, and regularly updated information regarding Church Services and Events. The weekly church service is also made available on the church website. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The unrestricted funds represent income earned but not yet utilised in supporting charitable activities. On 31 December 2024 the charity held £11,615 in unrestricted funds and the Trustees consider this to be appropriate to allow them to pay on-going costs. This represents just under three months of expenditure.

**Perth: Inchture and Kinnaird Parish Church of Scotland Trustees Report Year ended 31[st] December 2024** 

## **Risk Management** 

Like many Churches the Kirk Session is aware of the decreasing income from the active congregation. It has an active fund-raising group setup to raise additional income throughout the year. This along with increasing links to proposed union Churches has allowed the Kirk Session to mitigate the decreasing regular income. The Church is currently exploring the option of forming a union with the other Churches in the Carse. These are the current Churches we are already linked with, Abernyte and Longforgan, plus the addition of Invergowrie. The union with these churches will come into effect on the 1[st] January 2025. 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

The congregation is a registered charity no SC09839 and is administered in accordance with the terms of the Deed of Constitution (Unitary Form) and is subject to the Acts and Regulation of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland. 

Members of the Kirk Session are the charity trustees. The Kirk Session members are the elders of the church and are chosen from those members of the church who are considered to have the appropriate gifts and skills. The minister, who is a member of the Kirk Session, is elected by the congregation and inducted by Presbytery. 

The Kirk Session, which meets approximately five times a year, is responsible for the leadership and governance of the congregation. It delegates certain of its responsibilities to committees which it appoints – the members of these committees being elders and ordinary members of the congregation and all of them being selected according to their relevant skills and talents. All committees are responsible to the Kirk Session.

**Perth: Inchture and Kinnaird Parish Church of Scotland Year Ended 31 December 2024** 

## **Note A** 

## **Accounting Policies** 

The principal accounting policies, which have been applied consistently in the current and preceding year in dealing with items which are considered material to the accounts, are set out below. 

## **Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Accounting and Reporting by charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards I the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) issued on 16 July 2014 and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102), the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). 

## **Funds** 

Funds are classified as either restricted funds or unrestricted funds, defined as follows. 

Restricted funds are funds subject to specific requirements as to their use which may be declared by the donor or with their authority or created through legal processes, but still within the wider objects of the charity. 

Endowment funds are funds which have been given on the condition that the original capital sum is not reduced, but the income there from is used for the purpose defined in accordance with the objects of the charity. 

Unrestricted funds are expendable at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the objects of the charity. If parts of the unrestricted funds are earmarked at the discretion of the trustees for a particular purpose, they are designated as a separate fund. This designation has an administrative purpose only and does not legally restrict the trustees’ discretion to apply the fund. 

## **Incoming resources** 

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **Interest receivable** 

Interest on the funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank. 

## **Resources expended** 

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as the liability is incurred. 

10 



**Perth: Inchture and Kinnaird Parish Church of Scotland Year Ended 31 December 2024** 

## **Tangible Fixed Assets** 

All tangible fixed assets costing in excess of £1,000 having a value to the charity greater than one year, other than those acquired for specific purposes, are capitalised.  Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis to write off the cost or initial value, less residual value, of tangible fixed assets over their estimated useful lives: 

Fixtures, fittings and office equipment 5 years. 

## **Investments** 

Fixed asset investments are stated at market value at the balance sheet date.  Unrealised gains and losses represent the difference between the market value at the beginning and end of the financial year or, if purchased in the year, the difference between cost and market value at the end of the year.  Realised gains and losses represent the difference between the proceeds on disposal and the market value at the start of the year or cost if purchased in the year. 

## **Taxation** 

Inchture and Kinnaird Church is recognised as a charity for the purposes of applicable taxation legislation and is therefore not subject to taxation on its charitable activities.  The charity is not registered for VAT and resources expended therefore include irrecoverable input VAT.
