VISION INTERNATIONAL MINISTRIES (A company limited by guarantee) TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025 The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Vision International Ministries for the 1 September 2024 to 31 August 2025. The Annual report serves the purposes of both a Trustees' report and a directors' report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the Annual report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019). Since the charity qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the Strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted. Objectives and activities a. Policies and objectives In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the charity commission relating to public benefit. The advancement of the Christian religion in Malawi and throughout Africa for the benefit of the public through the following activities; - The provision of a place of worship; - Raising awareness and understanding of the Christian beliefs and practices; - Holding church services and public meetings for praise, worship, Bible teaching, prayer and fellowship. The prevention and relief of poverty for the benefit of the public through the following activities; - The construction of vocational training centres, feeding stations and orphanages; - The provision of items to those thought to be in need: The advancement of education for the benefit of the public through the following activities; - Constructing schools; - Providing teachers and trainers to educate children and adults in schools; - Providing activities, education and teaching for children and young people. b. Activities undertaken to achieve objectives The charity raises funds for achieving its objectives through receiving donations, the sale of donated goods and furnishings in a small charity shop and from renting its owned premises to a charity with similar charitable purposes. Achievements and performance a. Main achievements of the charity The organisation has been concentrating for some time on its projects in Malawi. The Nadazi school project was completed in 2011. It consists of a full primary school with 1250 children enrolled, including approximately 300 orphans. Teachers' offices, 2 teachers' houses and toilet blocks and borehole etc. Ongoing financial support for this work is continuing. The charity also sends containers of vital supplies of aid directly to Malawi. Page 2
VISION INTERNATIONAL MINISTRIES (A company limited by guarantee) Achievements and performance (continued) b. Review of activities Vision International Ministries commenced two Feeding programmes in rural villages each with the 50 most vulnerable orphans in early 2010. These programmes continue to be fully financed by the charity. Clothing and medical assistance is provided and in some cases school fees. These are located at Ntakataka and at Bondo both in the region of Chief Kachindodamoto (Dedza area Central Malawi). The Emily Garrett project approximately 1 hour away is very isolated and difficult to get to with no other outside help apart from Vision Ministries. It is also funded completely by Vision International Ministries and under the care of ELIM Missions Malawi. It includes a Primary School and Community Church, staff house, orphan home, borehole, toilet block etc. There is also important feeding for children. Ongoing financial support for books and staff will continue for the foreseeable future. No school fees are charged as this is an area of extreme poverty. The transport costs in relation to this project have been considerable due to the difficult location. We have the full support of the Senior Chiefs, local MPs, the Education Minister, Local Authorities and all local church denominations. Also we are welcome by the Malawi Government Assembly. Visioncraft (craft section vocational training) is registered in Malawi as an FBO (Faith Based Organisation) and the sale of crafts has helped set up a computer college where students recently completed their course including "Young People" school teachers. Some are still studying but most have been helped to find jobs, mainly in teaching posts. They also have 2 feeding programmes with over 50 orphans in each which was started approximately 6 years ago in rural villages. The Trustees receive weekly feeding reports on the activity of the feeding programmes. This work was undertaken after discussions with the local MP and Senior Chief who both have a heart for the children and continue to lend their support. Although Vision International Ministries works in rural areas where poverty and disease is rife they are seeing lives dramatically changed, especially in regards to children. These people are truly the WARM HEART OF AFRICA. We want to do something to help them so our mission statement simply is to "help and encourage those who are prepared to help themselves and to show them how they can do just that". Vision International Ministries welcomes all who wish to participate in activities and programmes run by the charity, which exists to promote the advancement of the Christian religion and provide educational opportunities. During the year ended 30 April 2016 the charity completed the purchase of new premises in Newtownards. This has provided a new base for the charitable activities and since 2019 has begun an additional source of incoming resources from renting parts of the property to other charitable organisations with similar charitable purposes. During the year in-person visits to the projects in Malawi were able to continue, and the Trustees continued to provide vital financial aid, shipping aid containers and trucks driven directly to the projects. Financial review a. Going concern After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies. Page 3
VISION INTERNATIONAL MINISTRIES (A company limited by guarantee) Financial review (continued) b. Reserves policy Vision International Ministries subscribes to a high standard of accountability and stewardship. The results for the year are set out in the attached financial statements. The results for the year and the financial position were considered satisfactory by the trustees who expect growth in the foreseeable future. During the year and at the year end all the general funds under the control of the charity were unrestricted income funds. The Board confirm that the charity's assets are available and adequate to fulfil the obligations of the charity and that the funds are not excessive, given the assets, commitments and size of the charity. c. Principal risks and uncertainties The Trustees continue to monitor the impact of the wider economic climate in Malawi and how that may impact the work it does there. Structure, governance and management a. Constitution Vision International Ministries is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Memorandum of Association on 20th April 2010. The charity is constituted under a Memorandum of Association dated 27th January 2016 and is a registered charity with HMRC under number NI00170. The charity is registered with the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland under number NIC 106627. b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees The management of the charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Memorandum of Association. c. Organisational structure and decision-making policies Vision International Ministries has a Board of three professional people – one minister of religion and two professionals who function as Directors. This Board is responsible for the setting of policy, decisions on the annual programme of work, the financial management and supervision of any staff or volunteers appointed to work on behalf of the charity. Plans for future periods It is anticipated that all future developments will continue to focus on the advancement of religion, the relief of poverty and the advancement of education in Malawi, particularly school projects and feeding projects.

VISION INTERNATIONAL MINISTRIES (A company limited by guarantee) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025
1. | General information
Vision International Minstries is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated in Northern Ireland under registration number NI602901. The company's registered office is situated at Suite 2.06 Custom House, Custom House Square, Belfast, BT1 3ET. The charity's principal objects and activities are noted in the Trustees' Report. 2.Accounting policies
| 2.1 | Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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 2015), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. Vision International Ministries meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
| 2.2 | Income
All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable. Other income is recognised in the period in which it is receivable and can be relaibily measured and to the extent the goods have been provided or on completion of the service.
| 2.3 | Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the charity to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading. Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs. All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT. Page 10
VISION INTERNATIONAL MINISTRIES (A company limited by guarantee) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025 2.Accounting policies (continued)
| 2.4 | Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets costing £NIL or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably. Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost. Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, . Depreciation is provided on the following bases:
|  |  |  | Long-term leasehold property | - | 2% straight line
|  |  |  | Fixtures and fittings | - | 10% straight line
|  |  |  | Office equipment | - | 25% straight line
| 2.5 | Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.
| 2.6 | Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
| 2.7 | Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
| 2.8 | Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of financial activities as a finance cost. Page 11
VISION INTERNATIONAL MINISTRIES (A company limited by guarantee) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025 2.Accounting policies (continued)
| 2.9 | Financial instruments
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
| 2.10 | Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
