REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

The Trustees present their Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2025.

OBJECTIVES, ORGANISATION AND ACTIVITIES

Wellspring Christian Centre is governed under a formal Governing Document and is constituted as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (registered charity number 1062914). Wellspring Church and The King’s Storehouse Foodbank are overseen by the Trustees of Wellspring Christian Centre.

Wellspring Trustees started the process of changing our governing structure from unincorporated to a CIO, at the time of writing this report this has now been completed and Wellspring Church has been formed as a charity in 2026.

The charity’s main activity is running a local Christian church, which includes organising Sunday services, community group meetings, and community services for Rhyl and the surrounding area. These activities include:

A Sunday church service with Sunday School
Mid-week activities for prayer, worship, teaching and encouragement
The King’s Storehouse Foodbank and Community café: The Hub
A Parent & Toddler group, children’s and youth clubs
In addition, we support EAST - WEST MINISTRIES (1087109) as other charitable organisations whose missions align with our charitable objectives.

Christian worship, prayer, and teaching occur regularly throughout the week, with the main Sunday Service drawing people of all ages for worship and mutual encouragement. Weekly Prayer Meetings , Connect Groups , and Alpha have played important roles during 2025.

The Hub Community Café —operating as a warm space every Wednesday from 11 am to 1:30 pm—has grown steadily in 2025. It provides a safe, welcoming environment where people can gather, chat, and enjoy refreshments like tea, coffee, biscuits, toast, and soup. The café also hosts a Dementia Awareness support group, which typically attracts 10 to 15 attendees.

During 2025, The King’s Storehouse Foodbank continued to support individuals and families experiencing food poverty in Rhyl and the surrounding area. The majority of referrals came through local agencies such as Citizens Advice, homelessness services, Nacro, DASU, and children’s centres, which help identify those in urgent need and make referrals for food parcels. The foodbank also received 80 kg of food via a grant from DVSC, facilitating access to Fareshare distributions. Generous donations were made online, and additional support came from Sainsbury’s customers—donations which were greatly ‑ appreciated. Sainsbury’s Rhyl hosts a regular drop off point for the foodbank, making it easier for shoppers ‑ to give; we are thankful for this 13 year association with Sainsbury’s Rhyl.

During term time in 2025:

Parent & Toddler Group – Tiny Treasures : A welcoming space where parents and toddlers meet weekly to play, sing, craft, and socialise. A £1 suggested donation is accepted and used to purchase refreshments, fruit, and toast for the children.
Children’s Club – Energise : Held every Friday for one hour, this club features games, a Bible story, and opportunities to grow children’s understanding of community and faith. Parents are served

refreshments in the Coffee Lounge while they wait.

Youth Club – formerly “Sorted” : Popular among local young people, this weekly activity runs on Friday nights and includes fun games, refreshments, worship, and faith-based teaching focused on ‑
understanding one’s own individual value and the value of others. The group attended the three day youth event Rock Nations in Bradford. Generous community donations and contributions from the charity help support youth who might otherwise struggle to fund participation. Increased volunteer ‑
involvement in 2025 enabled a broader range of Friday evening activities.

During 2025, our overseas support continued for EST - WST Ministries in Lebanon; Daniela & Gabriel in northern Spain; Magdy & Suzie Tawfik in London; Anton & Mihaela Sukic in Slovenia; and Lynn & Paul Kohls in Slovakia. £1,000 was also given to support a Teen Challenge outreach in the Rhyl area. Our total giving for missions in 2025 amounted to £8,200. These efforts form part of Wellspring Christian Centre’s ongoing commitment to providing financial and spiritual support to missionaries serving locally and abroad.

During 2025, there was little work done on the building other than maintenance work. The maintenance work in total cost £17,199.

The cleaning of the church building is managed through a contract overseen by the Trustees, with the service provider fully aware of their responsibilities and liabilities. Over the course of 2025, the cost of this cleaning costs, including the contract amounted to £6,900.

The work of the charity depends entirely on the support of volunteers. Every event and activity undertaken has been carried out either entirely by them or with their help. Volunteers have committed countless hours to our activities during the year. Their contribution and support are valued enormously and cannot be underestimated; in monetary terms, their input would be significant. The volunteers and the charity accept and agree that no contract of employment is created by these arrangements.

We are deeply grateful to every team member and leader who serves voluntarily in these ministries in Wellspring, passionately representing Jesus to our community. The trustees would like to formally express their thanks to all who volunteer and serve in any capacity at Wellspring.

Reserves Policy
