We are thankful to those who raised ¢(￿CernS in 2021 a1X￿llhe leadership and governance of our church. We appreciate the
effort ¢ak¢n to raise these concerns in away that honLNJred th¢ Lord. In reSwA￿ to thiswe comrni&5ioned a review to consider
the concerns raised. We a￿ grateful for the Contri￿11￿$ to the r¢view process made by all who look part including the
contribution of th¢ fom¢r l¢ad¢rship.
Due to variou$ insumiounthbie issues, we have t*en unable io Ixing the commissioned review process to completion, and
the review has therefore b¢¢n abrogated. We have found this pr(Kess farT￿O￿ wmplex ihan we had expe¢ted and are deq)ly

failure io post consistent updates on our website. the amount of lime that ¢lap5¢d since the review was comrnissioned:
and any wrong expectation5 we have created alx)ui how thi5 pnKe55 would progress and conclude. We have now

Though we have E*¢n unable to complete our review proce5& sinc¢ ￿1￿8 aFwinted in November 2022. we, the current

We are very aware that thert is much we still need to learn and aye committed to listening to anyone who has ongoing
concerns. We have iherefore drdfted and made avoilabl¢ on our websiie and at the back of chuwh, a new fornial complainis
policy to make concems known in the futur& We are thankful for all the Lord has tsught u$ #bout His grace and mercy
through this process and are now looking io Him to guide u5 in th¢ future as we seek to love Him and thos¢ whom we ar¢
called to serv¢. We are prnying ihatGod will uphold andsustain all involved and enable us towalk forward in faith entTusiing

102, comprising £140.¢YJO for fred￿ld land and £2million f4x freehold bllildings.
It is trust¢¢s' ongoing policy to rnainiain the ffftthold wwies in a good srate of repair such that estimated
residual value is at least equal to bLY)k value. In the opinion of th¢ trystees. any depreciable amount in relation to
the freehold buildings is therefore immalerial and hen¢e, subject io an annual review for any evidence of
impairrnent, no depreciation is being F￿vided on freelK)Id propty at this lime.
