2022 saw Cornerstone participate in an event with
many other churches across Bristol, reaching out to
our surrounding communities.
Our two free activities enabled us to meet people
who live near our premises, some of whom joined
our successful Parent & Toddler group.
The Trustees commissioned a firm of Surveyors to
provide a report on the present condition of our
premises. Fortunately, the cost of urgent work was
paid for by specific gifts. Future reparations will be
carried out similarly, as and when funds become
available, ensuring our financial commitment to our
primary purpose is not affected.| ## Additional information (optional) You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: ||SORP
