The Statement of Financial Activities on page 5 reflects a surplus of £7,220 (2023: surplus of £265). ## **Reserves** It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds, ie funds not committed or invested in fixed assets, at a level which equates to approximately six months of unrestricted expenditure, around £41,800. The General Fund on page 5 at 31 July 2024 amounted to £19,127 (2023: £14,700) which is significantly below the required target. The Trustees are monitoring the situation and although the reserves fall below the desired target they are confident they can continue as a going concern and expect the reserves to increase over the coming years. Total reserves, including the net book value of fixed assets and balances on designated funds amounted to £63,145 (2023: £55,925). ## **Statement on risk** The Trustees have conducted their own review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed, systems have been established to mitigate those risks. Internal risks are minimised by the implementation of procedures for authorisation of all transactions and projects. These procedures are periodically reviewed to ensure that they still meet the needs of the charity. ## **Plans for the future** Our plans for the future are to continue to grow as a community of disciples following Jesus in East Lothian. We remain committed to the local community through the wider work of the church, and will continue to encourage developing partnerships with local charities. ## **Trustees’ responsibilities in relation to the financial statements** The charity trustees are responsible for preparing a trustees’ annual report and financial statements in accordance with law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.) The law applicable to charities in Scotland requires the charity trustees to prepare financial statements for each year which show a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, of the charity for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are required to: - select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; - observe the method and principles in the applicable Charities SORP; - make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; - state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; - prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operational existence. The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the charity and financial information on the congregation’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

The charity’s trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1) (a) to (c) of the Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under section 44(1) (c) of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. ## **Basis of independent examiner’s statement** My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeks explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given in the accounts. ## **Independent examiner’s statement** In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:- - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 44(1) (a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations (as amended) and - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 8 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations (as amended) have not been met, or 2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Page 6 Docusign Envelope ID: 3A11091F-34DE-460C-B122-3276FED2E7E4 ## Li hthouse Communit Church g y ## **Notes to the Financial Statements** _for the year ended 31 July 2024_ ## **1. Accounting policies** ## _**Accounting convention**_ The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended)and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note to these accounts. The accounts are prepared on a going concern basis as the Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Church’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £1. The Charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS102 Update Bulletin 1 as published on 2 February 2016 and does not prepare a Statement of Cash Flows. The Charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. ## _**Basis of financial statements**_ The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis. ## _**Fund accounting**_ Funds are classified as either restricted funds or unrestricted funds, defined as follows. _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. _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. ## _**Income recognition**_ All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the charity is legally entitled to the income after any performance conditions have been met, the amount can be measured reliably and it is probable that the income will be received. For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of performance before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred until those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled. For legacies, entitlement is the earlier of the charity being notified of an impending distribution or the legacy being received. At this point income is recognised. On occasion legacies will be notified to the charity however it is not possible to measure the amount expected to be distributed. On these occasions, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed. Income from trading activities includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities to raise funds for the charity. Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and services in order to raise funds and is recognised when entitlement has occurred. ## _**Interest receivable**_ Interest on 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. Page 7 Docusign Envelope ID: 3A11091F-34DE-460C-B122-3276FED2E7E4 ## Li hthouse Communit Church g y ## **Notes to the Financial Statements** _for the year ended 31 July 2024_ ## _**Expenditure recognition**_ Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. ## _**Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year**_ Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure. ## _**Charitable Activities**_ The expenditure on charitable activities includes grants made, governance costs and support costs as shown in the notes. ## _**Donated services and facilities**_ Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102) the general volunteer time of congregation members is not recognised. ## _**Fixed assets**_ ## _**Tangible fixed assets**_ Fixed assets are included at cost. Depreciation is provided at a rate in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life: Church building 2% straight line Equipment 25% straight line ## _**Taxation**_ Lighthouse Community 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. ## _**Financial instruments**_ Financial instruments are recognised in the Institute’s balance sheet when it becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. _Basic financial assets_ , which include debtors 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 value rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised. Cash at bank and in hand includes short term highly liquid bank accounts with a short maturity of three months or less. _Basic financial liabilities_ , which include creditors, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. ## _**Pensions**_ The charity operates a defined contribution scheme. The amount charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in respect of pension costs is the contributions payable in the year.
