Objectives and Activities
| Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document |
For or towards the promotion and advancement of the Christian religion or towards others related charitable purposes as the trustees think fit, including though not limited to the provision of Christian resources, literature, training and educational services. |
| Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts. |
Teaching and training people in the Christian faith through conferences, meetings and training schools across the world, in person and through any currently available online technology. The work that Timeless Wonder Foundation currently does is across 3 main projects: School of Prophecy - primarily comprises live workshops and social media StretchCo - ongoing blended learning for a growing community Word into Motion - helping people to experience scripture in a fresh way - through movement. |
| Statement confirming whether the trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit |
During this year the trustees have been guided by the Charity Commission’s advice on public benefit. We actively invite feedback and comments from every person taking part in any of our activities to find out what difference it has made to their lives. These reports are carefully considered by the trustees to ensure all we do is for the public benefit. |
| Contribution made by volunteers |
We have more than two dozen volunteers who are ably supported by our core leadership team. Though one person in this core team passed away in early 2025, someone else quickly stepped in to ensure no disruption. These volunteers work across our various activities and the trustees wish to thank them for their invaluable work to progress the aims of the charity. |
Achievements and Performance
| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Investments have been made as we pursue excellence in how we present and run the charity. This has included keeping up to date with new technology and software to maintain the security and smooth-running of our systems across our various activities. Our regular online meetings covering varying topics from experts in their field have proved a success and we are excited to see how these are impacting lives. Our ‘hangout’ meetings online have proved popular for those who simply want to chat and connect with each other. These meetings, plus our Whatsapp groups, all combine to help combat the sense of loneliness and isolation, as well as help discover new, and develop existing, life skills. We have supported those who want to explore their creativity. One person wrote a book for the first time. We produced a series of inspirational videos of the story of how one person in our community unexpectedly discovered her passion for ‘prophetic’ art. This series on social media with the accompanying booklet has impacted many. It was especially poignant for us as she had been diagnosed with a terminal illness and yet she managed to have enough energy to be filmed in her home for this series.Others have branched out into varied creative ventures which have brought them a fresh lease of life. |
