The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). ## **INCORPORATION** The charitable company was incorporated on 11 October 2024. ## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** ## **Objectives and aims** Trinity Church exists to advance the Christian faith in accordance with the teachings of the Bible. The Church's objectives are to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ, provide regular public worship, promote Christian discipleship and pastoral care, and serve the local community through outreach and practical support. In pursuing these aims, Trinity Church seeks to provide teaching, fellowship, and structured ministries for men, women, and young people, contributing to the spiritual and social wellbeing of those within the congregation and the wider community. ## **Significant activities** During the year, the charity has undertaken a range of activities in furtherance of its mission to advance the Christian faith and support its congregation and wider community. The church has continued to meet regularly for public worship, holding weekly Sunday services which provide teaching, prayer and fellowship for attendees. In addition, midweek Bible study gatherings have been held on Wednesdays to support deeper engagement with scripture and spiritual growth. To facilitate these activities, the charity has hired the Guide Hall as a regular place of worship. Accommodation has also been rented for the minister and their family to enable the effective carrying out of pastoral and leadership responsibilities. The leadership structure of the church has been strengthened through the appointment of two congregational elders, who work alongside the minister in providing spiritual oversight, guidance and support to members of the church. The church has continued to welcome individuals into formal membership through membership services, reflecting growth and commitment within the congregation. Ongoing pastoral care has been provided through regular meetings with individuals, offering support, encouragement and guidance. In line with its mission objectives, the charity has also raised funds to support external mission work, specifically contributing to initiatives led by Visionway India. These activities collectively support the charity's purpose of promoting the Christian faith, nurturing its members, and contributing to mission work both locally and internationally. ## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** ## **Reserves policy** The Trustees aim to hold no less than three months operating costs as reserves. The level of reserves as at 31 October 2025 is £32,005. This is sufficient to cover half a year of operating expenditure. ## **FUTURE PLANS** Looking ahead, the Church intends to secure a permanent place of worship which will also serve as a community hub. This will enable the expansion of outreach activities, discipleship programmes, youth work, and dedicated men's and women's ministries. The Trustees plan to undertake appropriate fundraising in order to place the Church in a position to enter into a long-term lease or, if feasible, purchase suitable premises. ## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** ## **Governing document** The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006. ## **REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE DETAILS** ## **Registered Company number** SC825588 (Scotland) ## **Registered Charity number** SC054050 Page 1 **Trinity Church Glasgow Limited** ## **Report of the Trustees For The Period 11 October 2024 to 31 October 2025** ## **Registered office** 8 Coltmuir Drive Bishopbriggs Glasgow G64 2SU ## **Trustees** Rev Dr W J U Philip Director (appointed 31.10.24) J R R Macleod Director (appointed 27.1.25) Rev.

J R R Macleod - Trustee Page 2 ## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Trinity Church Glasgow Limited** I report on the accounts for the period 11 October 2024 to 31 October 2025 set out on pages four to eight. ## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 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 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). 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 the independent examiner's report** My examination was 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 seeking explanations from you as 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 connection with 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; and - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with Regulation 8 of the 2006 Accounts 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.
