Our Sunday School aged children are continuing to increase and its lovely to see them come along each week. Our Coffee Shop on a Tuesday morning is very well attended and we are registered as a ‘Warm Space’ with the local council. We have continued with our monthly on-line YouTube service as we felt this was being viewed by people in our community who didn’t attend church so we wanted to maintain that contact. We usually have between 35-85 viewings. The Yarnigans (knitting/crocheting) group is very well attended on Thursday mornings and twice monthly on Wednesday evenings. The majority of these ladies are from the community and don’t come to any services. A lot of their work is given to Alder Hey Children’s Hospital and other local neonatal units. Our Thursday Guitar Club is very well attended so much so that it has nearly reached capacity. The ladies Light Exercise class continues to grow but mainly as a social event rather than a full exercise class. ## **Financial review** |**Financial review**|| |---|---| |**Brief statement of the**
