AMBLECOTE COMMUNITY CHURCH (Registered number: 07005276)

Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 March 2024


The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2024. 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).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The principle objects of the charity are:
- to advance the Christian faith,
- to relieve sickness and financial hardship and to promote and preserve good health, and
- to advance education

The trustees and director teams follow a principle objective of the proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and in addition provide a facility for people to meet to worship and praise God, to stand alongside people as they grow as individual Christians, and to encourage fellowship.

Charitable activities introduction

Following on from last year's report we are still seeing the slow return of people to the Sunday face to face meetings and are close to pre-Covid numbers. We are thankful to still see numbers rising and new people joining our Church family, some from other Churches with others wanting to know more about Jesus and what faith in Him can offer. Streaming services continue in a more permanent hybrid arrangement, with shortened versions posted on the ACC YouTube Channel. Community hubs continue to flourish and some have grown. WhatsApp continues to be used widely to facilitate regular contact and support throughout the Church family.
In January 2024 we embarked on a project to create a series of videos called "Unravelling" which is part of our Whole Church Teaching series.

Church Leadership/Staff Team

ACC continued to follow a revised leadership structure based on a shared leadership model. Staff Elders and a Staff Director met regularly, joint Elders/Directors meetings and 'Away-day' sessions were also scheduled throughout the year, with external training and input included. The Staff team continues to be strong, monthly meetings take place with an away day once a year.

Public benefit
The trustees confirm that they have paid due regard to Charity Commission guidance on public benefit in deciding what activities to undertake and are described below.

Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 March 2024

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
Review of Local Missions and Community Activities

ACC focused activities mainly on the local community throughout the year endeavoring to engage where it is possible. The range of community related activities included support for local individuals and families, working in conjunction with Hawbush Community Gardens, the Brierley Hill Project, Living Springs and with several schools locally.

We continued to support a wider charity base both local and internationally such as:-

Black Country Food Bank
Brierley Hill Project
Open Doors National Charity
Route 61
Two overseas missions in Kenya

Family, Friends and Outreach

Sunday morning groups ran alongside the services for children from 0 to youth aged 16. Through our children and family workers we held many events throughout the year, at the Church and in the community linking with other groups such as Hawbush Gardens. We expanded the coffee mornings and other activities to embrace a wider community.
The older generation were provided for with regular monthly meetings and special events, and many more activities and contact through a growing group of volunteers.
We continued to provide an in-house Christmas meal where people could meet who may be spending alone over Christmas, and partnered with Black Country Food Bank to provide meal bags for local families.

Networking

It is part of ACC's vision to be active in the community, attending meetings and networking with other charities and groups, e.g. Love Dudley, Love Black Country, Church Leaders Networks, Charity and Voluntary sector meetings and representation on statutory sector partnerships & working groups. These activities continued throughout the year.

Summary of Other Developments/Investments

Building and Maintenance - The building is in good repair so apart from regular general maintenance we have plans to refurbish the office areas.

Finance - Over the year there has been little change in the investment arrangements from the previous year's reporting.

Little Hands Day Nursery - We continue to have a good working relationship with the nursery owners. They maintain their spaces to a high standard, and we keep the financial arrangement under review with the escalation of costs.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
There is a deficit of income over expenditure for the year amounting to £6,098 (2023 £44,323 deficit).
Unrestricted funds totalling £527,984 (2023 £533,487) and restricted funds of £12,713 (2023 £13,308) give an overall funds total of £540,697 (2023 £546,795).

Principal funding sources
Most finances required to fund the activities were raised through regular giving and one-off donations from church members, supplemented by the refund of income tax from HM Revenue & Customs through the Gift Aid scheme. We also have the rent from Little Hands that is a significant amount.

Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 March 2024


FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
The ACC Reserves policy has two main objectives:
1) To ensure that there are adequate buffer funds to allow ACC operations to continue in the short term in the event that its income stream is unexpectedly interrupted. Ordinarily ACC will aim to retain approximately £25,000 in accessible reserves. The Directors may agree to permanently or temporarily suspend this level as necessary.
2) To generate sufficient funds to allow investments that secure ACC operations into the future. Any amounts over the agreed of buffer funds will be available for investments, which are intended to maintain and develop ACC operations. All investments with be consistent with ACC values.
The amount of unrestricted reserves not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets (the 'free' reserves) held at 31 March 2024 was £90,696 (2023 £90,635).

Restricted funds are disclosed in note 11

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of
AMBLECOTE COMMUNITY CHURCH

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of AMBLECOTE COMMUNITY CHURCH ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2024.

Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Freehold property - 2% on cost
Furniture and equipment - 10% on cost
