The Trustees present their report along with the financial statements of the Charity for the year ended 5S April 2025. The financial statements have been prepared in accerdance with the accounting policies set out on page 10-11 and comply with the Trust Deed and applicable law.
Structure, governance and management
Governing document
The Charity is an unincorporated trust constituted by a Deed of Trust dated 1st December 7995, amended by various Deeds and most recently by Deed of Variation dated 21st November 2017. The Trust was registered with the OSCR (the Scottish Charity Regulator) for Scotland on 1st November 1995 under Registered Scottish Charity Number: SC024174.
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
The names of the Trustees who served during the year and since the year end are set out on page 1. None of the Trustees, nor any person connected with them, received any remuneration or expenses from the Charity in the year ended 5 April 2025 (2024: fnil). The Trust operates two Gospel halls and Trustees are chosen from among the regular congregation of the halls. New Trustees are nominated by the existing Trustees or by the congregation and must be appointed by unanimous resolution of the congregation. They are selected according to their skills and experience and are expected to use both in furthering the objects of the Charity. Checks are made to ensure the Trustees’ eligibility to act and incoming Trustees are made aware of their responsibilities by the existing Trustees, who ensure that new Trustees read the Trust Deed and relevant OSCR quidance.
Wider network
The Trustees maintain informal links with similar charities with a view to pooling experience considered useful in pursuing the objects of the Charity.
Risk management
The Trustees have identified and reviewed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and confirm that they have established systems or procedures to manage and mitigate those risks.
Objectives and activities
Objectives and aims
The charitable purposes of the Charity are the advancement of the Christian religion for the public benefit, including by the carrying on of the service of God in accordance with the Old and New Testaments of the Holy Bible as followed by those Christians forming part of the world-wide fellowship known as the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church (the “Brethren’) and any other charitable purposes connected with Brethren. The core doctrine of the Brethren and proper practices in furtherance of certain aspects of doctrine are summarised in two schedules to the Trust Deed.
Main Activities and achievements
The Trust provides and maintains two gospel halls where religious meetings are held by the local Brethren community. Details of the origins, teachings and way of life of the Brethren can be found on the website - www.plymouthbrethrenchristianchurch.org and in the schedules to the Trust Deed.

Objectives and activities contd.
Main Activities and achievements contd.
The trust made several donations to Aberdeen & Peterhead foodbanks, at a total cost of £501.67 during the period.
The trust made 500 donations to Balmedie Wheelchairs in the year.
Local congregation members also supported a separate charity (Rapid Relief Team - registered charity no 1161586) at three events in the year where a total of 1,415 meals were served.
Plans for future periods
Despite the increased cost of energy, the trustees feel that these increased costs are not significantly impacting on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern.
Meetings
Meetings held at these gospel halls include the Lord's Supper (Communion), Gospel preachings, Bible readings and Bibie addresses. Depending on the particular meeting, between 50 and 250 people normally attend these occasions. There is a structured weekly schedule of meetings held in one or more of the gospel halls. The meetings are attended by the regular congregation and most are open to other properly disposed visitors. The notice board outside the Hall welcomes visitors and displays the times of Gospel preachings, along with a telephone number for those seeking further information or help. Gospel tracts, which are distributed by street preachers, also display this information.
Bibles and an extensive range of other Christian reading material are on display at the hall and visitors are free to help themselves.
Objectives and activities
Spreading the Gospel message and the life of a Christian
The Gospel halls are a base from which the regular congregation and others who attend the meetings are encouraged to spread the Christian Gospel, in word and deed.
Members of the congregation participate in a programme of street preaching and Gospel tracts are provided free of charge by the Charity to such preachers to be handed out to interested members of the public.
In carrying out this work, the congregation considers itself to be living out its faith in practice, as particularly exemplified in the following extract from the schedule to the Trust Deed on living a Christian life:
-
We seek and are encouraged to live exemplary lives in all our relationships with others in the wider community (including former Brethren), in accordance with the teachings of Holy Scripture (1 Tim 2:2)
-
We regularly go out from our homes to preach on the streets, to distribute Christian literature and engage with the wider community (including former Brethren) in order to present eternal salvation, available to all men by faith in Jesus Christ. (2 Tim 4:2).
-
We seek as members of the publicto lead Christian lives as husbands and wives, parents, children, employers, employees and neighbours. (Col 3:22-25, Col 4:1).

Jesmond Gospel Trust Report of the trustees for the year ended 5th April 2025
Spreading the Gospel message and the life of a Christian contd.
-
The preservation and protection of the family unit is fundamental and children are prized as a blessing from God. (Psalm 127:3-5). The elderly are valued members of the community, for whom both their family and the wider community are expected to care.
-
Holy Scripture commands us to be good neighbours to others, and deal with all other people (including former Brethren} openly, honestly and fairly and consistent with these principles, we should give our time, talents and money to assist those in need in the wider community, in so far as reasonable given our abilities and our available resources. (Matt 7:12, Matt 22:39, Eph 4:28).
Funding
Funding is sought through gifts from the congregation and Gift Aid is claimed on eligible donations. Funding is sometimes received from other charitable trusts with complementary objectives.
Financial review
Financial position
In the year ended 5 April 2025 the Trust had a small deficit of incoming resources over resources expended. This was mainly due to depreciation i.e. a non cash transaction. Total voluntary income received this year was £104,213 compared to £196,581 in the previous year.
All funds held were unrestricted funds.
Reserves policy
The Trustees have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the charity's needs. This is based on the charity's size and the level of financial commitments. The Trust has no employees and its regular outgoings are minimal. The Trust aims to hold sufficient funds in a current account to cover day to day expenditure, plus an allowance for any urgent repairs and capital expenses that may arise. The Trustees aim to ensure that the charity will be able to continue to fulfil its charitable objectives even if there is a temporary shortfall in income or unexpected expenditure, by raising a funds appeal.
The current accumulated free reserves are being held with a view to funding further gospel hails in the area.
Free reserves at the year end were £ 461,737 (2024 £626,976).
The reserves have decreased due to a decrease in the level of donations received. Reserves are being held with a view to reinvesting in further gospel halls.
