## **TRANSFORMATION COMMUNITY CHURCH** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)** 

Trustee meetings were held regularly throughout the year, including key meetings in July 2025, September 2025 and March 2026, where decisions were made prayerfully and with a desire to steward well all that God has entrusted to us. 

A significant milestone in the year was the public launch of Transformation Community Church in September 2025. This was marked by a community-focused event including a BBQ and children’s activities, which provided an opportunity to welcome and engage with the local community. We thank God for the encouragement and unity experienced during this time as we stepped forward into a new season. 

The Church hosted a number of teaching series and events aimed at equipping and building up the body, including: 

- A teaching series on the Book of Joshua beginning August 2025 

- A Summer Bible School from July 2025 

- A Prayer Series in October 2025 with visiting ministry from Alistair 

- A Generosity Series in November 2025 

- A Mission Weekend in December 2025 with Martin Durham (Kerygma180) 

Throughout the year, we have continued to make use of technology and new systems, including ChurchSuite, to support the life of the Church, improve communication, and ensure good stewardship and accountability in administration. 

## _**Ministerial Support & Ministries**_ 

The Trustees remain thankful for the leadership God has placed within the Church and for the unity and shared sense of calling across the leadership team. 

During the year, leadership roles were clarified and strengthened: 

- Rev David Dickson continued in his role as Senior Leader, focusing on vision, 

- teaching, and raising up the next generation of leaders 

- Kerry Murray was appointed as Executive Pastor (effective 2026), taking 

- responsibility for the day-to-day running of the Church and ensuring that the vision is lived out in practical ways 

- Bev Dickson continued to serve faithfully in prayer ministry, safeguarding and 

- pastoral support 

Significant preparation was undertaken for the sabbatical of David and Bev (May–September 2026). The Trustees approached this with prayerful consideration, putting in place structures to ensure continuity of care, leadership and teaching. We are grateful for the willingness of leaders, Trustees and external support to serve during this period. 

We also recognise and give thanks for those stepping forward into leadership. Emerging leaders including Jayden, Dipika, Mark, Israel and Shanayde have been identified, reflecting a growing leadership pipeline. Shanayade has also been approached to serve as Safeguarding Deputy.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)** 

In considering the future, the Trustees reflected on biblical models of leadership, seeking to ensure that we remain faithful to Scripture in shepherding, teaching and equipping the Church, while also developing structures that enable a broader expression of ministry leadership across the body. 

Children’s and youth ministry continued to be an important area of growth. We are thankful for: 

- The ongoing work of Little Stars and those who serve within it 

- Increased support from volunteers including Musa 

- The development of a Youth Café launching in May 2026 

- The establishment of a youth communication platform designed to encourage faith, 

- community and discipleship, while maintaining strong safeguarding practices 

We also give thanks for those serving in practical roles, including the introduction of a stewarding/usher role to support the welcome and care of those attending services. 

## _**Missions**_ 

The Trustees remain committed to supporting mission work both locally and internationally, recognising the call to share the Gospel and demonstrate God’s love in practical ways. 

During the year, we were able to provide financial and pastoral support to several individuals and ministries: 

- Support for Sarah Yousaf, an evangelist in Pakistan working with young men 

- recovering from drug abuse 

- A one-off gift of £3,000 to Pastor Dilan in Sri Lanka to assist with significant financial 

- hardship affecting his family 

- Contributions to local initiatives including Lighthouse Prayer and Christians Against 

- Poverty (CAP) 

We give thanks for the opportunity to partner in the work God is doing in different nations and contexts. 

Plans were also made for an overseas mission trip to Ghana and Nigeria in October 2025, as well as a Mission Weekend in December 2025 with Martin Durham of Kerygma180, helping to inspire and equip the Church in its missional calling. 

## _**Evangelism**_ 

Evangelism continues to be central to the life and calling of the Church, and we are encouraged by the ways in which this has been expressed throughout the year. 

The Transformation Community Church launch event in September 2025 provided a valuable opportunity to connect with the local community in a welcoming and accessible way. 

In addition, a range of teaching series, events and initiatives have helped to strengthen both discipleship and outreach, including the Summer Bible School and seasonal teaching series.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)** 

We are particularly encouraged by the development of youth-focused outreach, including the Youth Café launching in May 2026, which seeks to create a space for young people to connect, explore faith, and build community. 

The Trustees give thanks for all those involved in outreach and evangelism, both in organised activities and in their daily lives, living out and sharing their faith. 

## _**Safeguarding & Pastoral Care**_ 

The Trustees recognise the importance of safeguarding and pastoral care as a core responsibility and ministry. 

During the year: 

- Safeguarding policies and codes of conduct were reviewed and updated 

- Safeguarding training was delivered by Bev Dickson in September 2025 

- Clear and robust safeguarding processes were implemented for youth engagement 

- and communication 

- Ongoing pastoral care was provided through leadership, connect groups and ministry 

- teams 

We give thanks for those who serve in pastoral roles and for the care shown across the Church community. The Trustees remain committed to ensuring that the Church is a safe, supportive and nurturing environment for all. 

## _**Building Work**_ 

The Trustees thank God for the provision and use of the Church building and recognise the importance of maintaining and developing it as a place for worship, fellowship and outreach. 

## _During the year_ 

- Sound and visual systems were upgraded, supported by Dan from DSAV, with 

- training provided to volunteers 

- IT improvements were made, including equipment upgrades and improved working 

- spaces 

- The Ark building was adapted to provide a more functional office environment 

- New signage was installed to improve visibility and communication 

We also give thanks for opportunities to use the building to serve the wider community, including hall hire arrangements such as the local choir beginning in September 2025. 

The Trustees explored potential building expansion in partnership with Mayway Builders, including plans to increase capacity and improve facilities. While initial steps were taken, the Trustees felt it wise to proceed prayerfully and cautiously. As such, further fundraising and discernment will be required before progressing, including a proposed initial target of £6,000 for surveys.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)** 

## **Financial review** 

The Trustees recognise their responsibility to steward finances wisely and with integrity and give thanks for God’s continued provision over the past year. 

Financial oversight during the year included: 

- Review and correction of year-end accounts 

- Ongoing management of banking and administrative processes 

- Approval of salary adjustments, including for Kerry Murray, reflecting her increased 

- responsibilities 

- Consideration of staff welfare, including medical support options 

We have also begun to develop more structured budgeting for ministry areas, including youth and worship, to support effective planning and stewardship. 

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. 

## _**Going concern**_ 

The Trustees have performed a review of the financial position of the church and believes there are sufficient resources to manage any financial risks. We have continued to manage our finances prudently. The Trustees reasonably expect that we have adequate resources to continue operating for the foreseeable future. Therefore, the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual report and financial statements.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)** 

## **Statement of Responsibilities** 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations. 

The law applicable to charities requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, and the provisions of the constitution. The Trustees 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.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF TRANSFORMATION COMMUNITY CHURCH** 

I report to the Trustees on my examination of the accounts of Transformation Community Church for the year ended 31 March 2026. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity Trustees of Transformation Community Church you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). 

I report in respect of my examination of the Transformation Community Church's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of Transformation Community Church as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.
