Re ort of the Trustees l Directors for the ear ended 31st December 2025 The Iruslees present the 2025 annual report, for Wesl Street chrisb.an Fellowship. in Crewe. Structure Governance and Mana ement Wesl Street Christian Fellowship IWSCF) is a company limited by guarantee. It incorporaled on 11th May 2004 and registered as a charity on 131h January 2005. The objects ofthe company are defined in our Memorandum of Association and the charity is govemed by the rules in its Articles of Association. Should the company be wound up with insufficient funds to meet any liabilities, the members are required to contribute an amount not ex￿edIng £1 each. The church, formerly known as Wesl Street Baptist Church. is based in the west end of Crewe, although it continues to attract members from a wider area of South Cheshire. The church d)anged its name when it became a chantsble company and has remained an independent church. It is a member of the Evangelical Alliance. The Church Leadership team take responsibility for the spiri￿al direction an(J wellbeing of the thurch fellowship. The Tnjstees Overs￿ the legal responsibilities and the management ofthe fellowship's resources. ￿lIst the Churd) Leadership Team and Trustees each have their own responsibilities they do meet regulady as a group to ensure good levels of c(Foperation and tearnwork. WSCF operates a congregational decision-making model. INhere key decisions are to be tsken. e.g. some staff appointments and rtems of significant finanaal outkiy. the Leadership tèam and Truslees will ￿cOMMend a course of action. The church members are invited lo vote on the proposals indicating their approval or otherwise. Chuich unity is very importanl to US SO the leaders convene regular "Focus Days. where members of the congregation can both engage wrth what is being discussed and Share their thoughts on any future direction of the thurch. Church seNices and meetings are open to the public. Church membership. however. is open to anyone who professes a genuine Christian faith. can agree to the church statement of farth, is at least 18 years old and has been baptised by total immersion. Baptism is very meaningful for people who have re￿￿1[Y become Christians, but the rule has been problematic for people joining the Church from other denominations that don't practice baptism by total immersion. In January 2025 we Chang￿ our consttiution so that eslabli5hed Christians from a different background can join wrthout this requirement. The leadership of the church has changed slightly. Rev. Graham Criddle retired in March 2Q25 and after a period of reflection we were delighted that Heather Pritchard, who was already a member of the Leadership Team. accepted the offer to become our Senior Leader. Vve had rther good news in heanng ihat Graham, following a three month break from his duties with us, had decided to stay in Crewe and rejoined Ihe Leadership Team in a voluntary capacity. Charitsble Ob"ects Activities and Public Benefits Our Memorandum of Association describes the scote of our purposes as teing. the advancement of the Christian faith. the advan￿ment of education, the provision of facilities for the benefft of the communty the relief of hardship.

Our CUTrent activities in support of these aims are summarised as: _ 1. Church- Worship, Pastoral and TeachirvJ 2. Youth and Schools Work 3. Communty Projects 4. Christian Bookshop (In a much-reduced capacity) 5. Christian Mission and Reliefwork The financial costs ofthese activities are anatysed in the SOFA on Page 13. We have refeffed to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and planning for our activities. Pastoral Overview b Heather Pritchard Senior Leader 11 has been a privilege to lead the church over the last year in my role as Senior Leader. It was great to welcome Graham back to the leadership team in September. where we continue to foster a good working relationship whilst looking to grow more leaders. West Street continues to be a pla￿ where y￿ strive to nurture those who are part of our fellowship and invite and welcome those who are not. yetl Our main focus over the last year has been our calling to be 'disciple-making disciples., We seek to empower people to respond to the calling of Jesus in Matthew 28.19-20. As well as baptising some new believers. this has resulted in our Lrfe Groups expanding - pla￿S of fellowship. leaming and encouragement. where we can challenge each other to go out, wherever that means for our context and genty. share our faith. The church continues to be ¢￿alIve in her ways to serve the community. It's wonderful to lebrate people becoming debt free through our CAP centre, to hear stories of loneliness ing subdued through Friendship Hub gatherings and parents being supported through the high5 and lows of raising children, through 5 Minus. We look back and thank God for His faithfulness and look fO￿ard to His provision and blessing for the things to come. Prlncl le Actlvltles Achlevements and Perforniance 1. Church- Worshi Pastoral and Teachin Providing facilities for worship, pastoral (are arKI teaching 15 a core part of our charitable purposes. Our 10.30am Sunday morning service continues to provide an opportunity for everyone to come and enjoy the public worship of God through singing. praying and learning from bible-based teaching. Spending time wrth each other is a key part of the whole experience and rf( is good to see a nice mix of ages represented with both young and older families plus many single people too. We are delighted to welcome people from different ethnic backgrounds, coming together in unty. We regularly see new people wsiting us and we are really pleased when some choose to join wi(h us and become members of our church family. Those in our fellowship who struggle with health issues or other reasons that prevenl them from joining with us in the thurch building. join in our 5ervice5 from home via Zoom. The sermons are recorded and published on YouTube, esFecially for those who are serving in our thildren and youth ministries during the service. Lrfe is a joumey_ Faith is also a joumey. It is so good to be on this joumey with other like- minded people. This is not just confined to Sunday mornings. Life Groups are our mid-week meetings. allowing smaller groups of people to meet socially and share their life experiences, support each other in prayer and in other practical ways. Bible teaching is also important to us to provide thal faith framework as we seek to be followers of Jesus. There is so much to leam.

We have a varied programme of prayer meetings during the month. Every Wednesday during term time we hold a moming prayer meeting in the building. on￿ a month we have prayer meetings on Zoom and an extended time of prayer in the building on a Wednesday evening as we seek the Lord for a variety of things. One of our early morning prayer meetings for men, also involves a full English breakfast. That always goes down welll Another group occasionally does litter picking in the locality. which we combine with praying for the families who live there. Heather continues to lead "Super Sundays" aimed at younger people and young families who may not be used to attending a traditional church servi￿. We are helping people enjoy being part of a faith-based community in an environment they can feel comfortable with and where they are invited lo have lunch before they leaver Wrth an underlying Christian theme. the idea is to build community and to encourage people to develop and enjoy their faith. We have seen families from .5 Minus, join our group over the last year. which has then led some to join us for special celebration services in the church. Our family membership to Kairos Connexions has provided an incredibly valuable ne￿ork. Graham and Heather attended their annual conferences and made use of other training days. inviting olher members of the church to join them. In her role of Senior Leader, Heather joins leadership'huddle, once a month- a zoom call with other church leaders, led by Geoff Lathomer ICEO of Kairos Connexions) intended to develop thoughts, skills and network with other leader5. Alpha Courses have continued albeit in a more intimate setting w'th some courses on zoom and others in people's homes. These courses were desNJned by Holy Trinity Brompton Church i) London and have been used to great effect introducing people to the Christian fa(ch across the world. They are very thought provoknng and enjoyable. Sadly from time to time, many in the fellowship experien￿ difficulties and need a degree of support and encouragement. This is eSpe￿allY true for our elderly members. Our pastoral work is c(Fordinated by Tim Oakley along wtth his role of managing our CAP centre. Tim and the members of our leadership team are keen to establish a nebwork of people who can look out for each other and provide support where we can. It is all part of being church together. Church membership at our 2025 AGM was 107. New people have been attending the church, but It takes some time before they express an interest in becoming full memtsers. 2. Youth and Schools Work School based Meetin We recognise that in many primary schools, leachers may not have the reqUI￿d specialist knowledge to cover the religious education curriculum lo the depth required which can place a significant burden on them. When Heather Pritchard took on the role of Senior Leader, she requested that her commitment to th￿e local primary schools should continue As a qualrfied teacher, she continues to teach from the Cheshire East RE Agreed Syllabus, engaging children in the Christianrty Units of the curriculum. This enables the dass teachers to aC￿sS expertise in the subject and gain fresh ideas for their own teaching. She has also been part of SACRE working parties to help resour￿ the curriculum which was relaunched back in 2022. It is important for us to assess if this involvement with Schools. that the Church does and pays for, is effective? We were delighted to re￿1ve this letter from one of the local schools, 'Heather has a genuine gift for biinging leaming to lrfe. Her lessons are consistently thought-provoking and engaging, capturing the Inte￿St of allpupils from Year3 through to Year 6. She encourages children to think deeply, ask meaningful questions and reflect thoughtfully

on Iheir leaming. Her teaching not onty inspires CUriDsty and engagement but also nurtures pupils, SPilFtual and personal development. Teachers greatty value the professional development gained from observing Heather in practice. As the RE Curriculum Lead. I can genuinely say that I have leamed a g￿al deal from her and that I deeply value the stftDng, supportive connection our school has wilh her. Heather willingly supported me during the introduction of the new framework, helping to review and our cun7culum. H8ving access lo her knowledge and expertise was invaluable and provided much-needed reaSsu￿n￿ thtDuglFout Ihat process. In addition. Heatherfs whole-school assemblies are consistenlly inspiiing and imaginative. bringing our school cornmunity together in a meaniruful and inclusNe way. She has an exceptiorpal rapport with children, combinirw excellent behaviour management with lessons Ihat are thoughlful and stimulating. Healheris a truly outstanding RE teacher, and we feel extremely fortunate to woth wilh her.. During the first half of 2025 Kate Matthews was engaged wrth providing one to one support to a number of children who needed addrtional help and who were struggling emotionally at school. Sadly for us, Kate left in the summer after working wtth us for 14 years. She will be missed. One of ourvolunteers. Mary Hands, continu&s to support one particular child in a local school and it is pleasing that this work continues. We also have "Grannies. who visit a local primary school. Aimed at Reception age chiklren they come equipped with two puppets "Scruffy the D(*J" who apparently is not very well behaved and "Granny". They tell simple bible slories. No hi-tech here. They come with scrolls lof wallpaper) which unravel to reveal the story. wtlh the scenes wonderfulty painted, many years ago, by a former church member, Norma Phenton. Jill Buchan and Jean Shaw keep being invited back by the school. Church based meetin Thr￿ times a year - Christmas. Easter and Summer- we provhle a holiday club for primary age children in the area. called Ihe ARK", (one day each at Christmas and Easter and five in the Summer) where we welcome beMeen 50-60 chIld￿n to spend this time with us. The day begins at 10'.30am and the children engage in worship, Bible teaching and response time. We ask parentslcarers to provide a packed lunch for their children and then we continue in the afternoon with a range of fvn filled workshops, finishing at 3-15pm. These sessions remain very popular with the thildren. They enjoy the whole day. Teenage years. A small group of young adults have begun meeting regularly, initially as part of one of our Life Groups but now as their own entty. called. BASIC- (Brothers and Sisters in Christ). They have opened their gatherings to th￿r friends of similar age with little or no faith experience. They are also keen to seNe and have organised worship evenings, open to all churches in our locality- Their eagemess to grow and leam is a real encouragement for the fijture of the church.

  1. Communi Pro ects To show the love of Christ to the communty in practical ways. Christians Against Poverty This year we celebrate 15 years of running the Crewe CAP Debt Centre and CAP nationally lebrales its 30th yearl When we look back and see how things have changed and how. sadly. financially. things are getting harder and harder for people year on year. it makes us realise. yel again. how vital the work of CAP is. especialty in a town like Crewe. which nationally. is one of the highest area5 of deprivation in the whole of the UK_ What makes CAP stand out from other organisations who provide debt help. is that we offer lo meet people in their own homes...we m￿t them where they ate at and that can make a huge difference to people. Many of those we work with struggle to meet new people and find it even harder to go and meet new people in a strange pL3ce. Being able to meet in their 'safe place, their home, enables people to at least make that fiist contact with a bit more peace. Last year we saw a further 15 families be freed from the crippling weight of unrnanageable debt and saw the difference tt made to them. financially and emotionally. One client sent this message to us 'CAP really has changed my life. The relief I canl explain! I will be forever grateful lo you aNJ CAP. as I really didn't see a way out when I contacted you. It was really getting me down. Hoping to have all my debts paid off by next summer and I can look to the future nowl. Our diaries continue to be full and we look forward to hearing more stories of people whose lives have been changed...forthe goodl 5 Minus - Pre-school Playgroup With modem life becoming increasingly digrtal and thus isolats.ng and the wodd presenting more reasons for people to feel fear and uncertainty. toddler groups like 5 minus appear to be as important as ever. Our group provides people wth connection and a place to share their joys and burdens with staff and other parents alike. The stsff and volunteers provide a listening ear, along with support and prayer. This year they have helped several individuals through bereavements and difficult life circumstances. This academic year we regularly see over 100 children a week coming to 5 minus. The group gives parents a space to play with their child and feel looked after themselves for a while. The children grow in confidence beautifully playing alongside their parents and carers. This sort of play is vrtal for a child's development and 5 Minus goes a step further, followng a set curriculum that makes sure our areas of play hit all the developmental areas a child needs. This prepares them well to be ready for school and beyond. One grandparent has re￿ntlY commented to the team that while the news of the world can make them have a heavy heart, coming to 5 Minus restores their hope that there are still people out there wanting to pour into people's lives and make a dIfferern￿. That is the heart of the 5 minus team, to minister God's love to the children and carers who attend. Friendship Hub We meet every Friday moming in the Christian Centre. Richard Street. Our aim is to provide a warm welcome to anyone who enjoys meeting people, board games, crafting. puzzles or just having a cuppa and a catch-up. Even rf you find social sttuations difficult. we will ensure you are a welcorne part ofthe group. We regularly welcome between 10-17 people each week, mainly over sixties and varying interests and abililies. We have 5-10 dtfferent volunteers each week. helping to serve refreshments. plan, and lead crafts or responsible for greeting and befriending those who come. Special mea15 are shared together every frfth Friday when we also have quizzes and games to entertain and help in building relationships.

All people come with a lifetime of personal experience and stories. and Friendship Hub has been a great place to share these experiences. Dementia. illness. acute and long term. life thanges, tsereavemenl, and loss are all things that are shared among the group. Five of our regular attendees are living with dementia at various stages. The group's routine and activities help them stay engaged, contribute posrtivety, and maintain social conneclions. We have also SLtpported one couple through a cancer diagnosis and treatment, along wtth the challenges this has brought forthem and their family. One newer attendee. who needs regular support, has found real joy in crafting and making cards for her many friends. It ha5 been a privilege to support each person and to see how the whole group care for one another, encouraging and caring. enabling everyone to thrive and feel an integral part of the group. Other Comrnunity groups. Mthen our rooms are not being used, we are able to allow other community groups to use them. Our Maybury Centre building and our Church Hall are in demand by quite a varied selection of groups. For example. the Cheshire. Halton & Warrington Race & Equality Centre {CHAWREC) hire rooms every worf(ing day for their ever-popular English language classes for people whose first language is not English. This reflects the ethnic diversity in Crewe. The AA + NA hold meetings here for people recovering from either cohol or drug abuse. We are able to offer facilities to the YMCA for some of their youth and community projects and to the local U3A. A number of other smaller churches who don't have their own premises meet in the Maybury Centre. Parents are keen to hold their Children's trA'rthday parties in our Church Hall. So the properties are well used. 4. Christian Booksho Within the recepiion area of our Maybury Centre. is a srnall bookstall area selling a few books. ibles and a selection of birthday and greeting cards wth a scriptural theme. 5. Christian Mission and Relief Work In addition to our own church and the communty we live in, the church has to keep in focus the wider world too. There is so much need. The projects we support are generally ones where members of our congregation have special involvement. He￿ are a few examples. 1. A Churth family opened the Herridge Technical Schijol in Burundi for orphans and destitute children, in 2007. They still manage their charity known as ACTS (Africa Christian Teaching Servi￿) and spend several weeks in Burundi each year. Their school has excellent results and has eamed a good repLrtation. A team from the church are planning to visit the school during 2026. 2. One of our members is part of the leadership of Flame Intemational and they organise special mission trips to Ugandalsouth SudanlDemocratic Republic of Congo. They reach out to many tr8umatised ￿Ople following the constant violent unrest, encourage local Christian leaders, and when able, speak to the Army and visit prisons. They bring the good news of Jesus to people and their reports of things they have witnessed as they have prayed for people, have been remarkable. They teach a lot aboLrt forgiveness, which is not easy considering what these people have faced in life, but it is a key to their renewal. They have also been visiting Ukraine to encourage the churches in these difficult times. 3. Two of our church members a￿ permanently based in New Zealand and work with communities and churches in tP￿ South Pacthc. 4. We prowded disaster relief aid to help earthquake victims in Myanmarrrhailand {£2.000) and the Philippines (£1.000) during the year.

There are many UK projects we support too. As a general principle we look to set aside a tithe (give 100A1 of our unrestricted Church income to help these projects away from our base in Crewe. Due to the liming of some projects, some of the money is held over until the following year. In total we have been able to provide a grand total of £32.517 to suprx)rt various Christian outreach. mission and disaster relief. Volunteers We ernployed len paid members of staff at the start oflhe year, bul reduced the paid headcounl to eight as the year progressed due to retirement and staff rnoviro away. However, we could not function properly without the support from our willing and talented volunteers. They contribute so much of their time to the different ministrEs at church. We have a very skilled Maintenance team. musicians, PA and technology teams. Administrators and Finance teams. people who serve in various Pastoral and Ministry capacities. And then we have groups of people willing to serve refreshments. We try to encourage people to become involved in serving others. Some people doubt they have anything to offer. but we just want people to provide friendship, be welcoming and to offer support and to pray for one another. That is something most of us can do. Risks We have a small team that takes care of safeguarding at West Street. We have invested in a CPOMS safeguarding monitoring system and are in the prO￿$S of revising our p)licies. All r key workers are DBS checked arHJ tt is a high priority for us to keep all children and vulnerable adults safe. whether they a￿ part of our church family or our local community. A church should be one of the safest of pla￿S for people. but sadly we know from news reports that this cannot always be assumed to be the case. In re￿nt years, various Trustees and other key church members have been able to attend training courses on l)oth Safeguarding, Mental Health issues and also First Atd. Our building5 are maintained by our skilled and capable volunteers. In 2021 we employed the services of a professional chartered surveyor as part of an ongoing S year {quinquennial) review, This helps to direct our maintenance priorities. Fire equipment is updated annually. PAT testing is done. Any health and safety issues are dealt with as soon as they become apparent. Insurance policies are updated each year and we maintain copyright licences for music performance and streaming. Financial Review Our total income for the year, induding restricted funds, reached £307,435 (2024 £333,724). Expendtture (including depreciation charges) was £303.556 12024 £324,954). The net posilion shows a surplus in the year of £3.879 (2024 surplus of £8.T70) and this represents the movernent in total net assets. The accounts and accompanying notes provide an analysis of these figures The Net Cash Flow in the year shows a SUTplus of £30.371 (2024 a surplus of £23.943). This represents the movements in the cash and bank balances during the year. Within these figures we would wish to gratefully acknowledge the £20.000 grant received from Garfield Weslon towards our community projects. Cheshire Foundation prowded us with £2,500 and Bentley Molors staff gave £750 both of those gifts were specificalty for our Chrislians Against Poverty work. The bulk of our church income comes from our own church congregation. This year we opened an appeal to raise funds to enable us to employ a °Churth Family Worker" and we were delighted to have raised £22,959 with a further £3.721 accrued gift aid lax. This was additional to the congregatKJn's regular gNing. We are very grateful for their amazing generosity. 10

Reserves Polic Our current reserves policy aim5 to stabilise our unrestricted cash and bank balances at a level sufficient to cover our next Ihree to four months of expenditure_ This would suggest that our optimum cash balances would be approximately £90.000. Al the end of2025 our unrestricted church funds cash balances lotalled £168,662_ As we regulady budget for a cash deficit each year, having a healthy cash balance provides some additional security for the church. Trustees We are currently operating the charity with three trustees whereas we would ideally like to have al least six. We are looking to recruit new members from within the Church membership. For new trustees Iraining will be offered to supplement the sharing of knowledge within the existing group. All trustees recognise the need to keep abreast of current legislabon affecting charities. Trustees, Res onsibilities The trustees {who are also directors of West Street Chrislian Fellowship for the purposes of Company Law) are responsible for preparing the annual report and the financial slatemenls in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. Company Law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. which give a true and fair view of the stale of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial ststements the trustees are required to.. Select suilable accounting policies and appty them consistently. Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent.
