What the accounts disclose

Going concern: accounts NOT prepared on a going-concern basis (closing, merging or winding up)
“The trust is no longer regarded as a going concern because it now owns no assets.” — page 6
Per its FY2025 accounts as filed with the Charity Commission.
Related-party transaction: The document states 'There were no related party transactions during the year' in Note 10. However, Note 4 and Note 5 disclose significant financial flows with 'Hertford Gospel Hall Trust' (Donated services income of £300 and Grants received of £987,337). Given the explicit 'no related party transactions' statement, these are likely not classified as such by the trustees, or the entity is not considered a 'related party' under the specific definition used in Note 10 despite the financial links. Per Rule 1, we must extract ONLY what is explicitly stated. Note 10 explicitly states 'no related party transactions'. Therefore, the list is empty.
“There were no related party transactions during the year (2024 £0).” — page 7
