Basis of independent My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the 2006 Accounts examiner’s statement 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:

  2. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 44(1) (a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations, and

  3. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 9 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations

FRONTIERS (OVERSEAS) Trustees’ Annual report

1. Objectives and Activities

Objectives: The primary objective of F(O) is to for the charitable purpose of encouraging and facilitating people to live out their Christian faith for the benefit of local communities and make the love and teachings of Jesus Christ known, particularly among those who have had little opportunity to hear, through using professions and skills to serve communities in varying ways according to local needs, including development projects, relief work, teaching, medical work etc.

Activities: Throughout the year, our activities have centred around networking and mobilisation among believers so as to raise and develop them to serve for people who haven’t had the chance to hear the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Key activities include:

development. Meaningful impact depends on the engagement of believers who share the vision of reaching out to and serving their neighbours. Considerable effort has therefore been directed towards church visits, relationship-building, and networking with a range of churches and organisations. These activities have laid an important groundwork for future mobilisation and participation.

• Development of Focus, Concern, and Prayer Groups

Concluding Remarks

Over the past year, the Trustees have continued to reflect on the nature of our mission, recognising it as both deeply rewarding and demanding. It has been encouraging to witness individuals seeking to express their Christian faith through service to others. At the same time, nurturing such commitment within the context of the UK’s increasingly individualistic culture remains an ongoing challenge.

Our work has taken place against a backdrop of persistent economic pressure and a community environment that continues to evolve. Changes in the population landscape, alongside shifting immigration policies and rising costs of living, have contributed to an increasingly complex set of needs. These factors require us to remain attentive, responsive, and realistic in assessing the scope and limits of our current provision.

Ensuring the charity’s financial sustainability remains a priority as we seek to maintain and, where possible, develop our services. While feedback from participants and stakeholders has been encouraging and suggests meaningful impact, the Trustees recognise that demand continues to outpace our present capacity. A particular and immediate concern is the recruitment of suitably skilled and committed personnel to support the ministry. Staffing constraints pose a risk to the continuity and growth of our work, and addressing this remains a key focus.

2

Looking ahead, the Trustees reaffirm their commitment to the charity’s mission while recognising the need for flexibility in responding to emerging challenges and opportunities. Strategic attention will continue to be given to workforce planning and organisational resilience.

Nevertheless, the past year has marked a constructive step forward in the charity’s development. As we enter the coming year, the Trustees remain encouraged by what has been achieved and committed to moving forward with faith, relying on God’s guidance and grace as we continue in this work.

Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the financial period

Achievements of Frontiers (Overseas) :

1. Raising Awareness of Frontiers (Overseas)

During the reporting period, a key focus of the charity’s work has been to increase awareness of Frontiers (Overseas), recognising that visibility and understanding are essential in the early stages of its development. Meaningful impact depends on the engagement of believers who share the vision of reaching out to and serving their neighbours. Considerable effort has therefore been directed towards church visits, relationshipbuilding, and networking with a range of churches and organisations. These activities have laid an important groundwork for future mobilisation and participation.

2. Development of Focus, Concern, and Prayer Groups

As a result of engagement across more than 13 cities and locations, including visits to 15 churches and contact with over 1,000 individuals, the charity has seen the formation of focus, concern, and prayer groups in several areas. In locations where formal groups have not yet been established, individuals have been encouraged to remain connected through the charity’s care network, enabling ongoing involvement and support for the work of Frontiers (Overseas).

Over the past year, the Trustees have continued to reflect on the nature of our mission, recognising it as both deeply rewarding and demanding. It has been encouraging to witness individuals seeking to express their Christian faith through service to others. At the same time, nurturing such commitment within the context of the UK’s increasingly individualistic culture remains an ongoing challenge.
