Review of Activities & Achievements

Introduction

FCCT was started over 20 years ago and continues to ensure that the charity provides excellent support services for inter-church collaborative projects with a vision to see churches enjoy working effectively together to impact the local community.

Major projects were as follows:

Signposts, Farnham Schools Work

In 2025 Signposts produced an Easter tour, a summer ‘moving on’ tour, and a Christmas tour. A team of 16 volunteers deliver 38 assemblies at 11 primary schools in the Farnham area, reaching 2,100 children.

In the summer a ONE Youth event was held for Farnham young people of secondary school age, school years 6 - 13, with over 40 young people and leaders attending.

Farnham Foodbank

During 2025, demand for food parcels has remained broadly consistent with post-COVID years. Foodbank fed 2032 people, of which 798 were children. 50% were single adults with no children and 16% single adults with children. Reasons for needing a food parcel vary and can include debts, benefit delays, health conditions and personal circumstances

This ongoing level of need underlines the importance of our work in the community and reinforces the value of continued support from donors and referral partners. We are grateful for the ongoing partnership with referral agencies, who ensure that support reaches those who need it most. Our partner agency, Farnham Frontline, works alongside Foodbank and seeks to help clients address any financial challenges.

We have observed a reduction in food donations during this reporting period. However, financial donations have remained relatively stable. In response, we continue to adopt a proactive and cautious approach to financial management. Steps are being taken to ensure that Foodbank retains the necessary resources to meet both medium- and long-term needs, including reviewing expenditure, stock management and future sustainability.

enhancing existing strengths. No major structural changes have been made; instead, the emphasis has been on continuous improvement and building upon our solid foundation of work.

Looking ahead, we will continue to monitor trends in need and donation levels and adapt our response accordingly. The charity remains in a stable position, and we are confident in our ability to meet the needs of those we serve.

Frontline Farnham - Money Advice

budgeting issues to find a way through to financial stability. Where there are underlying issues that fall outside of the project’s remit (e.g. physical or mental health), clients are referred or signposted to the appropriate organisation for additional help. The project relies on donations and Foodbank support to continue to operate, and has increased the team of trained volunteer Debt Advisers to meet the increased client demand in response to the Cost of Living Crisis.

Our Branch Manager works three days a week to cope with the additional workload, working closely with Farnham Foodbank as a large proportion of FFMA clients are also Farnham Foodbank clients. We expect the ongoing surge in demand of people experiencing financial crisis and seeking help from FFMA to continue, and we will be seeking new volunteers to help meet that need

Friends Together - Bereavement Support

Friends Together Bereavement Support Group continue to help people who are bereaved through the difficult days, weeks, months and even years following their loss. Friendships are made and people are very supportive to one another .There is a regular daytime and evening informal get-together over a cup of tea. The group provides a much needed service to the community and the number attending varies from six to sixteen in the afternoon meetings. The support is well received and appreciated

.

Caring Families Together - Fostering & Adoption

Caring Families Together supports families who foster and adopt by providing a safe space where looked-after children can play and carers can get support over a cup of tea.

A monthly support group is run where carers can meet with others in a similar position and share their challenges with those who understand. Carers can bring their children, and toys and activities are provided for all ages to keep them happy and give carers a much-needed break .

.

In addition to these projects FCCT facilitates a number of other projects and initiatives that impact the community:

Christian Activities : Inter-church Prayer & Mission

In December an outdoor carol service was held in Gostrey Meadow with hot chocolate and mulled wine. Gospel Collective lead the carols with music provided by Alder Valley Brass Band and an engaging address by Rev’d Nicky Gumbel. An invitation was given to join Alpha courses in January 2026. A number of churches hosted a monthly gathering to pray for Farnham

Family Support

The Family Support project has developed over more than ten years to help improve the circumstances of local school children whose education is adversely affected by exceptionally difficult family circumstances. These include illness, domestic abuse and sudden emergencies. It also supports groups such as young carers.

It operates through Home School Link Workers attached to schools, making use of funds donated by local Christian businessmen to buy items such as school uniform and shoes, pay for school trips which the child would otherwise miss, or contribute to the household by buying basic food or new bedding for the child.

The project works with and supplements assistance from formal agencies such as Social Services. By giving freely and immediately, the project helps demonstrate Christian love to the children and their families. During 2025, the project supported families with children in eight schools in and around Farnham and many individual gifts continue to be made.

The Future

As the legal and administrative framework for inter-church collaborative projects, the Trustees continue to positively engage with key stakeholders in the churches and community sectors and by doing so both build social capital and reach out to some of the most vulnerable in our community.

Public Benefit

have due regard to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit. The Trustees believe that the public benefit is provided by the activities listed in the ‘Review of activities’ above.

Reserves Policy

event of a shortfall in funding.

The Reserves comprise:

Review of Financial Affairs

used in the operation of the charity. The total deficit was £26,008.

Generous donations in prior years have enabled the Trustees to increase project expenditure in 2025, resulting in a current year deficit. Trustees ensure there are sufficient reserves to meet the Reserves Policy target. Administrative costs have slightly increased from the previous year.

Total income increased to £136,284 from the previous year total of £125,572 . The unrestricted core income of £28,119 to support core services is an increase from £26,182 for the previous year.

Recruitment & Appointment of New Trustees

No new Trustees were appointed in 2025.

Induction & Training of New Trustees

All Trustees are provided with a Trustee Handbook and a guide to cloud storage where governing documents, policies, minutes and accounts are located.

Risk Management

The Trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed, and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against the risks identified, in accordance with the Risk Management Policy.

Fund Transfers

From Restricted to Unrestricted Funds : Transfers were made between Restricted and Unrestricted funds to cover a small proportion of the operating costs of the charity, as agreed with Project Steering Groups. Projects that either used the shared space rented by the charity or employed personnel contributed to the management of these items, as well as other operational costs borne by the charity.

Between Restricted Funds : With the consent of original donors or inline with minuted decisions made by Project Steering Groups to support other Projects that were offering a service to the original Project, funds were transferred between Restricted accounts.

From Unrestricted to Restricted Funds : A number of transfers were made from the unrestricted charity funds to support projects that were not yet self-sufficient.

Fund Figures figure only shows the balance of transfers not In and Out transfers.
