ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Chair's report
Wow, 2020 was not the year that anyone had planned for!
With the arrival of COVID-19 and a national lockdown, the church was forced to adapt quickly to the change in environment. With very short notice, Generations Church moved a number of our programmes online. As we are a multi-generational church, with a range of different people accessing our services, it was important to us to make sure that all age groups were catered for during the lockdown.
With this in mind, we moved from in-person services, to streaming our services to Facebook and Youtube every Sunday. We also began online prayer meetings, initially on zoom and then later moved them to facebook. Our weekly connect groups (small groups that would normally meet in people's homes) were moved onto zoom calls and in many cases the frequency of these meetings was increased from fortnightly to weekly. This was especially helpful for the old generations as this helped them to not feel isolated during the lockdown.
Our youth and children's programmes closed their in-person sessions and moved to online events each week. Our children's pastor has worked hard throughout 2020 to provide additional teaching resources and distributed these to parents, which have been used as a substitute for our regular sunday morning children's programme and also early in 2020 to supplement children re resources for homeschooling during the first lockdown.
Despite this significant change to how we practically run the church, we have consistently seen around 50 devices 'tuning in' each Sunday for our services, of which we know that in most cases families are sat together in their living rooms watching the service together, so we believe that we have consistently seen around 100 people connecting in the with church each week. We have also seen a number of new people access our church services who are not local to the area and but are now able to be a part of the church community despite their geographical location.
During the first lockdown we also arranged a structured system of calling people to ensure that they were supported and had people to turn to if they were struggling, this was a huge support to all members of the church, but particularly to the most vulnerable and elderly who were after living alone.
We would like to formally acknowledge all of our volunteers who have worked so hard in 2020 to ensure that everybody felt included in the church family and provide support to those under their care.
In 2020, we continued to support Willows Community Church in Grimsby and although the small group of members were unable to meet in person, we provided weekly support to them and they were able to be integrated into our online services.
Our biblical teaching needed to adapt to meet the needs of the church members as a result of COVID. Our teach series in 2020, were very different and a focus was placed on helping people to deal with isolation and fear during lockdown and also messages of hope to encourage those that were struggling. Although we were unable to have our usual range of guest speakers, we were able to bring in new resources such as pre-recorded messages from 'Compassion UK' and 'J. John' which we may not normally have been able to use.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Chair's report (cont.)
As the building was unoccupied for a significant part of the year, we have been able to progress with decorating the ground floor of the building and arrange additional building work to begin in 2021. We would like to thank Richard and Linda Hardwick for making this possible. We also continued the renovation of the church entrance, which we need to complete in 2021.
As children went back to school after each lockdown, we have seen a large increase in the need for school uniforms, and the school uniform bank has been able to rise to this challenge and has given out a record number of uniforms in 2020. 576 items were given out in this year, despite COVID restrictions meaning that we were unable to open for a significant period of time.
Finally, on behalf of the trustees, I would again like to thank our increasing number of volunteers who work so hard to ensure that our church programmes operate smoothly. We could not do it without you!
Purposes and activities
Generations Church exists to:
Build the church
Generations Church is intentional about building the local church, it has been said that the local church is the hope of the world. This kind of church doesn't just happen, but when people become intentional about it, there are no limits to what can be achieved.
How will we do this?
As a church, we come together and meet to passionately worship God corporately, believing that He will give us direction as individuals as well as a church. There will be opportunity to grow together through our discipleship and mentorship programmes, being a church where we do all we can to help one another. We want to grow a church where we work together in creating a welcoming atmosphere, encouraging everyone to come and find life!
Equip the people
Here at Generations Church we believe in the Bible and we believe in teaching its truth in a relevant way. God's word has principles for us to live by and apply on a daily basis. Our teaching comes through example, inspiration and life stories that have the power to impact people where they are at. We aim to offer a relaxed environment, giving room for interaction and discussion. We are a family, and need to learn how to interact as a family should.
Reach the community
We believe we live in a great town and community and as a church, our heart is to serve that community in any way we can. Our programmes are created with service in mind and we take people just as they are, believing God will do the rest.
We count it an honour and privilege to serve our town. We love where God has placed us and believe we are here to make a difference. In the days in which we live, the Church has to become a practical resource for the community in which it stands. Our aim is always to see a need and do all we can to help in meeting that need.
Empower the future
Generations Church has a great future! We passionately believe this. The decisions we make today will take us into the future God has for us, each individual has a unique purpose and it is our desire to help each person tap into that plan and live it. In everything we do we want to provide for our future. Whether that is with our building plans or in our discipleship and community programmes. We want to equip future generations to carry on what we are currently doing, and achieving more than we are currently seeing.
Building progress
In 2020 we completed the renovation work to the school uniform bank which means it has moved to a more prominent location at the front of the building. With new signage, and moving it to the group floor, this has led to an increase in the use of the uniform, which continues to be a fantastic resource to the local community.
Alongside this project we continued restoring the entrance to the building, to make the building more welcoming for visitors and also to provide clearer information and directions (signage) to help visitors find the correct rooms for our community and church programmes.
In 2020 we receive a grant from Smart Energy of £500 toward LED lighting for the school uniform bank and entrance to reduce our carbon emissions. We hope to make similar improvements to the building in the future if more grant funding becomes available.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Programmes
A number of programmes we put on hold during 2020 due to COVID restrictions, these include; Toddler, Crowned (our women's events), Momentum (Our men's events), our schools programmes and our CAP money course.
Our children's programmes have been built up this year with new teams formed and more children than ever in the life of our church especially on a Sunday morning. Diane Cartwright continues to do an outstanding job and this year we were able to pay for her and another volunteer to attend AOG's iKids conference before the national lockdown. A conference specifically designed for children's pastors in churches. She was able to receive great input and meet with other leaders with the same calling and passion as she has.
Bi-weekly we run small groups which are very well attended. This enables us to pastorally care for people within Generations Church, also finding out what we are doing that is helpful to them or flag up anything that they may be struggling with. We estimate that over 50% of the church attend one of these groups from every generation within the church. It has been great to continue to run these over zoom in 2020.
2020 saw growth in the 'Uniform Bank', which runs very much like a food bank but with school uniforms. We have been inundated with donations, both from individuals and school lost property boxes. We have a team who will collect, de-name, wash and iron all donations and then they are hung up in a room at Cannon Street ready for families to come and get up to 2 sets of uniform per child. If we have a large amount of one particular item of clothing then more can be given. We have seen people overwhelmed with the cost of uniform find help and the relief on their faces is visible. We have a donation box which is completely voluntary but sometimes people want to give a bit back, alternatively they can come and swap uniforms so they feel like they are contributing in some way. We have been wanting for a few years now to re-house the uniform bank in Cannon st House. When people come in they have to follow a number of signs or ask where the uniform bank is housed to be able to get help. We recognise that for so many needing to use this facility can be quite difficult for them and we wanted to make access as easy as possible, and especially help our clients be able to come as anonymously as possible.
In 2019, the Uniform Bank helped 74 families. In 2020 this figure more than doubled to 186 families and as of 31st December 2020, the uniform bank now holds 5,500 items of stock. The uniform bank was also able to give away shoes, trainers and coats to families as there were no shops available in Louth during lockdown where people could get these items and many families did not have access to the internet. We have also increased the number of town and village schools that we provide uniform for and have also begun dying polo shirts where it is difficult to get the correct colour (e.g. Purple PE Polo Shirts).
In July 2020, against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the government policy at the time of not extending Free Meals Provision over the summer holidays, we launched Generations Church Free Holiday Lunches Scheme. The aim of the scheme is to help local families who are struggling financially, by providing a free packed lunch for all family members on selected days. We piloted the scheme two days per week across the summer holidays. In a total of 12 sessions we gave out 970 lunches, feeding between 70-90 people per session. We were supported financially by TLG (Transforming Lives for Good) Charity, who gave us a donation of £200. The remainder of the funds came from personal donations.
Since then the scheme has gone from strength to strength. We have run the scheme in each subsequent school holiday, for 3 sessions per week, and to date have given out just under 2000 free meals. At Christmas 2020, as well as the packed lunches, we gave out a food hamper to every family who participated - 38 hampers in total. We are now feeding over 125 people per session on average.
As well as the original funding from TLG, we have also received a grant of £1000 from East Lindsey District Council (ELDC) through their Councillors Community Grant Scheme, and received ongoing support from Louth Morrisons Community Champions in the form of food supplies for the scheme.
Volunteers
Generations Church continues to have a strong volunteer base, which is growing year on year. We still have over 50 active volunteers, although many volunteers were not needed due to limited programmes. We currently have only 2 paid staff members and would not be able to run our programmes and community services without the support that is offered by our volunteers.
This year, we would like to particularly thank our AV team who have stepped up this year to run our livestream services and serve the church each week without a break. Without your services, we would not have been able to stay connected with so many people as they were isolating at home.
On behalf of the trustees, we want to thank all those who give their time in this way. We could not continue without them and we are so proud to be building a church where its partners have a heart to serve and to build a strong church.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Influence
In 2020 the influence of Generations continued to grow. Pastor Jo Read continued her role on the area team for Assemblies of God GB (AOG) which involves meeting with other church leaders and making sure things are working well on behalf of AOG. She is overseeing churches in Lincolnshire and North Nottinghamshire. We have continued to support the Willows Community Church in Grimsby by providing as they were without a church leader. Although there is only a small congregation the area the church is in has many families who need to have a church community they can rely on. The team back at Generations were also able to get involved, whilst still keeping things running in Louth.
With the launch of the holiday lunches project, we have continued to make great connections in our community as well. There have been connections made with local councillors and local businesses who are all very interested in our community work esp with the uniform bank and and our youth work which is still very strong and continues to grow.
Our influence in the schools and with the young people in our community continues to grow. Our youth team is now very established and all of them are doing a great job and Liz and Paul continue to lead them well and bring the best out of them. Our youth team regularly sees over 50 young people on a friday night and they come for evenings full of fun, games, music, discussion, food the list just goes on. Our team works so hard to give the young people in our community a space that is safe and a great environment to come and see their friends.
Unfortunately, the planned summer Youth event was cancelled in 2020 due to COVID and was replaced with an online event. Although this wasn't as well attended as the weekend event would have been, there were still a number of young people who were able to attend the online event.
Pastoral Support
Pastoral support continues to be provided by our 4 main generational groups and structure our support within these areas. They are as follows; under 18's led by Paul & Liz Hilton, 18-35yrs led by James and Diane Cartwright, 35-60yrs led by Jo Parkinson and 60+ led by Mark and Jane Egan. Each leader has identified a team who can help them. This support will take place alongside the existing support from connect group leaders to strengthen the support structure. Each group leader is also planning social events to help connect people in those age groups.
Public Benefit
We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit and complied with section 17(5) of the 2011 Charities act when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the Trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
The trustees have reviewed the charity's needs for reserves in line with the guidance issued by the Charity Commission and have set aside £5,000. This approximates to one months running costs. This is deemed sufficient as income is received on a weekly basis and is monitored. The trustees believe that reserves should be at least this level to ensure the charity can run efficiently and meet the needs of the beneficiaries.
PLANS FOR THE FUTURE
In 2021 we are wanting to do a few new things to help the influence of Generations grow and to invest in the people we already have.
We intend to continue with our school lunches project, along with officially taking on Willows Community Church as a second campus for Generations Church. It is our intention to launch similar community project in Grimsby to the ones that are successfully running in Louth.
There are further plans in the pipeline with events for AOG and the leaders in Lincolnshire and North Nottinghamshire.

observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
Except as disclosed below, the financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, 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 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
The charity has departed from the Charities SORP and FRS 102 in order to depreciate all freehold property at a rate of 2% on a straight line basis. The treatment required by the Charities SORP and FRS 102 where an asset comprises of two or more major components is that each component should be depreciated separately over its useful life and that the value of land is not depreciated.
The trustees consider that depreciating all freehold property at a rate of 2% on a straight line basis reflects the loss of value of the asset for the charity, and have concluded that the accounts present a true and fair view.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, 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 accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.
Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Freehold property - 2% Straight Line Fixtures and fittings - 20% Straight Line
The charity has a policy to capitalise assets in excess of £250.
Uniform stock
Uniform stock donated for distribution by the Uniform Bank is valued at estimated market value, with the corresponding income recognised within donations.
When uniform stock is distributed this is recognised as an expense.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charity's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
