The Vine Fellowship (Littleborough) Trustees Annual Report LS2 3AG OBJECTIVES AND AcfiviTIES The objectives of The Vine Fellowship are "the advancement of the Christian religion, and the promotion of any purposes which are exclusively charitable. PUBLIC BENEFIT The Trustees are aware of the Charity Commission's gLsidance on public benefit and are confident that the account of the Charity's achievements and performance during the past year reflects the fact that the public in general and specif ic sections of the public benefited in many ways f rom the ministries of The Vine Fellowship. This benefit extends locally to Springhill Hospice in Rochdale, and to local Health Visitors and Social Workers, and globally to Grapevine Ministries in Kenya, to Tearfund's disaster response and relief and development work, and to Open Doors Ministry to persecuted Christians around the world. The work of the charity and the funds it raises are wholly directed towards furthering the aims and objectives set out above, and the Trustees are therefore of the view that the charity satisfies the criteria laid down for meeting public benefit. GRANT MAKING POLICY The charity makes regular donations to Briercliffe Company Limited, a charitable company that shares similar objectives to The Vine Fellowship and provides and maintains 311 the buildings used by the Fellowship. ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE Worship is central to our life in The Vine Fellowship. We still livestream our Sunday Morning and Wednesday Evening Services for the benefit of those at a distance and those unable to attend for a variety of other reasons. Our committed cholr continue5 to bless our Sunday worship. Durln8 the past year, we have purchased pew Bibles for the Chapel chairs. We seek to extend a warm welcome to newcomers, and find they often bring others. We also have a steady flow of visitors. Our Sunday Services include everyone, with a special time and activity devoted primarily to our children. We take our responslbility for safeguarding both children and vulnerable adults seriously and during this year, we have reviewed and updated our Safeguarding Policy which covers all areas of ministry, The Church is a member of Thirtyone:eight, the Independent Christian Safeguar ding Charity, and our policy is adapted from their template. Our additional guidelines are also largely based on their recommendations. The Senior Pastor devotes much of his time to prayer and to listening to the Lord. He often records what he hears in the form of letters, which he shares with the Church. We have three small groups, a150 led by the Senior Pastor which meet weekly to reflect on the word we are hearing and its application to our lives. One of these is available via Zoom so access is available to all. We also hold two weekly Bible Studies, one in the daytime led by the Deaconess and the other in the evening with the Assistant Pastor. The Senior Pastor with a small team continues to hold weekly services locally at Hare Hill Extra Care Centre, and these are clearly appreciated by residents who are no longer able to attend Church.

The Vlne Fellowship (Littleborough} Trustees Annual Report Our Gospel Garden at the rear of the Christian Centre is very special to us and blesses many who find peace and solace there. It gives a clear statement of our Christian faith, both in design and with the appropriate Scriptures on the lecterns. We update the plaques whenever necessary with names of brethren who are now with the Lord, and we maintain the Garden with constant devotion and care. We have a Food Store based at the Christian Centre, staffed by members of The Vine Fe15owship, with food also supplied by them. The Store is used primarily by people in poverty and struggling to make ends meet on benefits, and whenever possible, we seek to witness, pray, and to share with them, God's love and our faith in Christ Jesus. We continue to support Grapevine Ministries in Kenya. Members of the Fellowship donate to this ministry, and we send money quarterly, including part of our Christmas Day collettion. Pastorjoseph promptly confirms receipt of donations with gratitude "for many year5 of spiritual and financial support., He emails us from time to time with news of his church and family. They are continuing to work on their church building and have started to build classrooms and a kitchen for their children's ministry. In June 2024, Pastor Joseph wrote of the heavy rains and the worst flooding ever recorded, wlth many people killed and displaced, and the church building and local homes flooded. We have continued to donate money regularlyi as well as part of our Christmas collection, to Tearfund, a leading Christian relief and development agencyi and this has included contributions to emergency and disaster appeals. As they state "Poverty is not God's plan. We, His church are., Tearfund works in Jesus, name with local Churches in more than fifty of the world's poorest countries, They state, "We tackle poverty through sustainable development, respondlng to disasters and challenging injustice. We believe an end to extreme poverty is possible" and we fully endorse this. We give monthly to Open Doors in their work with persecuted Christians in more than seventy countries and donated the remainder of our Christmas Day offertory to them. They estimate that worldwide 365 million Christians suffer persecution or discrimination for their faith and risk their lives to follow Jesus. Open Doors supports them by supplying Bibles. providing emergency relief and helping persecuted believers stand strong in the long-term. They encourage the Church here, "to prayi give, and to speak out for those who share our faith but not our freedom. We also donate monthly to Springhill, our local hospice in Rochdale, In gratltude for their dedicated care. We keep the Fellowship informed about the work of all the above charitie5 on notlce boards at the rear of our Chapel. We again collected new toys at Christmas, which we donated to Health Visitors for distribution locally in areas of high deprivation and need. PERIODS FINANCIAL REVIEW The Trustees have reviewed the Charity's financial position and are confident that the Charity will be able to continue its charitable objectives irs the 12 months f rom the date of signing these accounts. RESERVES POLICY The Trustees have examined the requirements for free reserves, and they consider that, given the nature of the charity's work, free reserves should be equivalent to approximately 3 months routine expenditure. The Trustee5 are of the opinion that this provides sufficient flexibility to cover temporary shortfalls in incoming resources. Page 4

The Vlne Fellowship ILittleborough) Trustees Annual Report PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS As always. we contemplate the future with excitement and expectancy. Our constant desire is to be completely dependent upon God in all our decision making and to move only in the power of the Holy Spirit. We are, at present, seeking to extend our Children's Ministry to children in the local neighbourhood and are planning to create a play area in our spacious back garden at the Christian Centre and to open it as part of our witness and outreach to parents and children from the local comrnunity. The Children's Ministry room could provide additional space in the event of inclement weather. We are conscious that through the preached word we hear constantly, God is guidlng His Church here to the place where He wants us to be. We have been exhorted to pray more dili8ently than ever for God's will, and the fulfilment of His purposes, but we know that these are dependent upon our obedience to Him and the movement of the Holy Spirit in all our lives, We shall shortly be beginning a new area of ministry seeking healing and wellness for those struggling with addiction and other issues. This will be run by a small team, which it is envisaged will meet weekly, supported in prayer by the Senior Pastor. with additional input as necessary. The Vine, formerly our Christian Bookshop and Coffee House, has been redecorated and refurbished in preparation for this and other areas of ministry. We long to see the Church here fulfllllng Its potential and living like Jesus, with signs, wonders and miracles abounding. We are continuing to witness the Holy Spirit moving in power amongst us, and God undoubtedly is building His Church. We anticipate an exclting future ahead and long that all see the vision and catch the f ire of the Holy Spirit In our midst. The Church Is growlng splritually, and thi5 is reflected in the development of different areas of ministry. As recorded in last yearfs Annual Report, one of our former Trustees bequeathed her entire estate to The Vine Fellowship. This included a residential property which is now ready to be valued and sold. In concluslon, we pray that In all our plans, we wlll glorlfy God. We thank Almighty God, our dear Heavenly Father, His Son, our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit for all the blessings poured out upon The Vine Fellowship during the past year. To Him alone we give the 810ry, honour, thanksgiving and praise. We are grateful to all our Trustees who have again served faithfully and sacriflclally during another year.

The Vine Fellowship (Littleborough) Notes to the Accounts Leased assets Where the charity enters into a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease. Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to charity are classified as operating leases. Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the charity at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The correspondin8 liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet date as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately, unless they are directly attributable to qualifyin8 assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the charity's policy on borrowing costs. Assets held under finance leases are depreciated in the same way as owned asset5. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a strai8ht-line basis. Penslon costs The charity operates a defined contrlbution plan for its employees, A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the charity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the charity has no further payments obligations. The contributions are reco8nised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the charlty in Independently administered funds. Recelpt of donated goods, facllltles and service5 All donated goods, facilities and services received are recognSsed wlthin incoming resources and expenditure at an estimate of the value to the charity.
