Report of the Trustees For the Year Ended 31 March 2025

The trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025.

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)(effective 1 January 2019)

Structure, governance and management

Structure and Governing Document

The charity is incorporated as a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation. The charity was registered with the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator on 7th September 2017. The charity is governed by a single tier organisation constitution. The charity is an independent church which was established to take over the activities of registered Charity King's Fellowship (SC010326). That charity has now been wound up and transferred all assets and activities to King's Fellowship SCIO.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

Trustees will be suggested by the eldership and current trustees. Both groups will suggest individuals they feel can add to the skill set of the board and these suggestions are put to vote. The trustees have, to date, only recruited trustees from within the congregation of the church as they believe this is vital to the role of acting as the guardians of the church vision as well as the statutory responsibilities o the board.

Organisational structure

We currently have 5 Trustees of the SCIO as well as 8 Elders. The relationship between the Trustees & the Elders is as follows:

The elders work with "delegated authority" from the Trustees to set the vision for the SCIO & run the day to day operations. The Trustees then keep the Elders accountable to that vision acting as custodians of the vision. One Elder also acts as a Trustee.

Risk management

The Trustees & Elders have developed a risk management strategy which comprises:-

Objectives and Activities

The charitable objects of the organisation as registered with the Office of Scottish Charity Registrar are: "the advancement of religion","the relief of those in need by reason of age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage"

Achievements and Performance

Maturing disciples

King’s remains committed to the vision of following Christ and bringing others with us. This involves consistently creating spaces for all people, regardless of where they are in their personal faith journey, to grow in faith and relationship with Jesus. This involves encouraging all people to be consistent in their pursuit of friendship and discipleship through small/life groups, Sunday morning church services and other social, connecting-in points during the week. This year we introduced regular prayer and worship nights and continue with pre-service prayer for anyone wanting to join.

We also encourage all people of any age to grow in their faith, with various groups for all on Sunday mornings and through the week such as King’s Kids, The Hangout, Lunch Club etc. We saw an outdoor baptism take place with plans for more later into 2025 and took a group of teens to the Magnitude Christian festival in the summer of 2024.

Growing Young

Following the successful appointment of our Youth and Community worker in the summer of 2024, youth activities continue, with The Hangout remaining a popular Friday afternoon space for local young people to come and have a hot lunch and chat. Our young people and young adults are encouraged to take leadership roles, such as creating posts for the church social media accounts or in serving roles to support the wider church or events. King’s Kids and Sunday groups continue.

Employ-MY-ability

Alongside the coffee shop continuing to employ 3 staff plus others on a volunteer/ad hoc basis, our definition of employability has widened as to include all members of the church as we encourage all to use whatever skills and gifting they have, regardless of whether it is paid employment /as a volunteer/in the home as we see a large percentage of the church family giving their time and skills in a wide variety of areas.

We continue to liaise with and go into local schools to support in skills development for life eg. delivering CAP money. This included Culloden Academy’s take-over of the coffee house as they learnt barista/hospitality skills in a 4 week program. .

Financial hardship

The church makes every effort for all we do to be accessible to all regardless of financial position with most things being offered free of charge, for donations or occasionally for a small fee.

We continue to offer CAP money to young people and adults, delivering the youth program to the young people on the barista course in May and running a small group CAP session for adults in the coffee house. More primary school courses are planning into 2025/26.

Additionally as a church we continue to give a percentage of our income away to various other charities, such as Kyria Network, CAP, Adopt a Child. We plan to support a further child via the Adopt a child program, meaning King’s sponsors 3 overseas children.

Benevolence funds are given away ad hoc through the year as well as specifically to support people at Christmas, as well as supporting another local church to provide food hampers in December.

Emotional Wellbeing

Believing that God cares about our whole being, we sought this year to continue to provide Kintsugi well being courses to as many as possible, including offering single sex courses to support mens emotional health specifically. Additionally alongside a local business, we hosted a Brighter Days one day event giving training for local businesses to be better able to support their employees with their emotional well being and mental health.

We continue to pastorally care for the church community as necessary.

We continue to run a wide variety of weekly and one off events to support our local community to come together, combatting loneliness and regularly providing a meal. Christmas was a highlight in 2024 as we ran 4 events in the weeks running up the Christmas, varying from a community carol-oke, senior afternoon tea, outdoor nativity trail and contemplative Christmas song and spoken word evening.

Future Planning

We hope to continue to develop and expand all areas of our ministry, in accordance with the Fellowship's vision for the future.

Financial Review

The General fund as at 31st March 2025 amounted to £28,462 (2024 - £27,590). Total reserves, including the net book value of Fixed Assets and balances on designated and restricted funds amounted to £437,100 (2024 - £428,223)

Total incoming resources of £177,993 (2024 - £167,321) and total resources expended of £169,116 (2024 - £165,045) resulted in a surplus of £8,877 (2024 - £2,276).

Reserves Policy

The Elders and Trustees regularly review the amount held in reserves, and they are confident that there are sufficient reserves available in order to meet the current needs of the Fellowship. However, the Fellowship is dependent on the level of gifts and donations being maintained. The Trustees have agreed to work towards a financial reserve of two months of the SCIO’s annual expenditure the Elders and Trustees are confident of the support o the Fellowship should extra funds be required.

Trustees’ responsibilities

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the accounts in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice applicable to Smaller Entities).

The applicable in Scotland requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and the application of resources, of the charity of that period.

In preparing these accounts, the Trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the accounts 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.

Independent Examiners Report to the Trustees of Archaeology for Communities in the Highlands

Report to the trustees of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025 set out on pages 6 to 12, which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and the related notes. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out therein.

Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Auditors

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 (“the 2005 Act”) and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) (“the 2006 Regulations”). The charity’s trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1)(a) to (c) of the 2006 Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under section (44)(1)(c) of the 2005 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 2006 Regulations. 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 by 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 Regulations, and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 8 of the 2006 Regulations.

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.
