An introductlon to Frontline Church..
Our vision slalement is 'transformed by grace,. This vision speaks of our desire to b& a transforming influence
Ihroughoul the Liverpool City Region and also highlights that this Iransformalion can only be achieved by
God's grace
by offering the life transforming power of a relationship wilh Jesus lo the people around us.
Within this vision is the recognition that each person that we meet is an individual, made in the image of God,
with Iheir own life journey. We believe that the good news about Jesus represents good news for all
accordingly, our priority is lo welcome, aceepl and offer support lo people wherever we can, irrespective ol
race, gender, sexual orientation, religious background or other irrelevant factors. We aspire lo God's
standards of purity and holiness and leach these accordingly, whilst also rgcognising that no one is perfect
and Jesus died that our sins might be forgiven.
Frontline Church was rounded in 1992 by the merging ol two small congregations. Since then il has grown
from about 60 members into 8 community of around 850 men, women and children. 11 is a church with a big
heart and big vision. rhe primary adminislralion base is located al Frontline Centre, 147 Lawrence Road,
Wavertree. Llverpool, L15 3HA, in what was previously a Territorial Army barracks and a P051 Office
8ngineering cenlre. This has been Fronlline'5 base since 1996 and the 18cililies have served us well over the
years.
It has a￿ayS been our desire lo have a transforming influence in the whole ol the Liverpool City Region and,
in direct response to this vision, we have been developing a strategy ol planting new churche5 in areas where
we are working. The first of these new church plants was launched in September 2017 on the Wirral. Other
church plants have been launched in other areas of Liverpool and in Chalkida. a Greek city where we have
people serving. As well as a Sunday gathering, these new churches will be built on smaller Missional
Communities with each group looking for opportunities lo connect with and serve the local community they are
part ol. In addition lo geographically locussed church plants, we are also exploring demographic ones lor
those for whom English is not their first language. We currently have a Polish church plant. Overall Ihero are
currently lour such church plants operating in this way.
As well as focusing on our own localities, we Work with other ¢hurche5 and agencies across Liverpwl and
beyond. Our longing is lo be a transforming community within our own region and a model of what can be
achieved in other paris of thè UK and overseas.

To provide and maintain facilities for the benefit of the community
Since purchasing our current building, we have abNays sought lo ub'lise the facilities in furtherance of our
objectives and for the benefit of th& CDrnmunily. Around 500 peop18 visII our Wavertree facilily lor a service
each Sunday. In addition over 300 carers and children use the building during th8 week through the Sli¢ky
Fingers project, whilst the FoodHub sessions. held Iwice a wo8k. see around 70 people who find friendship
and community whilst choosing their shopping.
We also provide facilities for community training courses and make facilities available lo other agencie5 and
community groups, such as providing fooms lor a local resident's forum.
Other community aclivi11oS that are hosted in the Frontline Centre include children's cheer leading Classes,
music rehearsals, food slofage, birthday parties, events promoting loslering and adoption. and family fu
days.
Our partners,.
We would like lo offer our Ihanks lo all the organisalions and individuals who have supported us in our work
this year, including all ol our church members, volunteers, donors and sponsors. Everything Frontline has
achieved this year has been reliant Dn your valuable conlribulions, in all their various forms. Thank youl
Coronavlrus:
The impact of coronavirus on our work has been challgnging both on the services we provide and on the slaft
that work for us. It is clear that the ifflpacl ol this pandemic will continue some considerable way i nlo the future
and as such in both governance and operation wa have attempted lo do what we can lo ensure the long-lerm
health of the organisalion.
Overall we discovered that though our structures had lo chang8 our values didn't. Focussing on our values
enabled us lo continue lo lulfil our vision and objectives even if we were adapting lo a changing landscape. A
lesson that will sland us in good stead for whal&v8r lies ahead.
Like everyone else, we had lo cancel all public services from March 2020. As a church we discovereA that the
sustaining life of our smaller Missional Community groups really came into their own when the large Sunday
gathering was no longer possible. An elhtss we had always believed, that the real life was in the smaller units,
was lesled and proved lo be true. Many Missional Community groups moved their activities online
digital technology such as Zoorn. These groups continued lo provide emolional and spiritual support lo their
members as well as leadership development as more leadership opportunities were created.
With the regular connection of a Sunday service no longer available. the Senior Leadership Team
implemented daily bible devotions (pre-recorded video 5egmenlsl and nighlty prayer times Ilive over
Facebook). These measures have don8 a significant amount lo help peopls lo develop their own spiritual
rhythms. Almost by accident il also fulfilled some ol oui perforrnance targets
although not in a way that we
Could have ever anlicipal8d.
This growlh in digital communication also Included the 'slreaming' of servlces on a fortnighlly basis from May
2020. Again, not somalhing we had planned lo do bul has meant that we are able to CDnnecl with and serve
group of people that would never have come lo one of our Sunday services - either because il was far outside
their experience. or because Liverpool was far outside their geography. Again, a good experience Ihal will
shape our future plans. One goal lor OUT future will be lo maximisè the opportunity offer8d lo us by the digital
world.
In September 2020 w& initiated small seryices limited lo 50 people, the maximum number we can fil in our
building while still rnaintaining social distancing. These seNices have been by invilalion, with people signing
up iri advance. wearing a face mask, having their lemperalure taken on arrival and being allocated a 2m
square marked out Dn the floor. All church members are invited once per month and the opportunity lo attend
a small. simplified seNce has been greatly appreciated.

Achievements and performance
Prior to the coronavirus outbreak, in 2019120 we continued lo press forward with our objectlves ol boih
promoting the Christian Faith and working to invest in the weware of the city & rtsgion, lo develop community,
relieve povety and help in limes ol distres5.
The main focus of the year was continuing development and impl6mentalion of a strategy for planliro multiple
new churches acros5 the Liverpool City Region and further afield. As well as location based church plants in
the Wirral, Toxlelh and Greece, we are now exploring demographic ones
initially for those for whom English
is not their first language.
In the future this will include exploring digital church

an opportunity presented out of necessity from the
As well 89 providSng an opportunity for people lo meo1 others in the church and worship together, the larger
services in Wavertree prtsviée a key opportunity for people lo grow and develop in Ihoir thinking and
understanding of the Christian faith. Additionally these services are an opportunity lor those who are
developing new skills lo be trained and mentored in areas such as team leadership, preaching, worship
leading, elc.
Throughout the year the chLJr¢h has continued lo develop our Mis5ional Communities and we now have 24
separate mid-week groups with over 350 people participating in them. These diverse groups are organised by
geography, life stage c>r particular interests and run a variety of a¢livities in the local community, as well as
supporting people in Ih&ir faith.
In line wllh our object of advancing the Christian faith, these community groups encourage members to look
for ways lo communicale their faith lo others, both in Iheir daily lives and also when the groups meet.
Liverpool has a large sludenl population and Frontline Church has a long history of seeking lo conne¢l with
and se￿e Ih05e coming lo the city lo study. Many of the key church leaders today were themselves first
introduced lo Fronuine when they came lo Liverpool as students. We have a number of Missional
Communities that are geared specifically towards supporting and discipling students and through these
students reaching out lo the wider sludenl population. Al this point we have around 40 Students who are part
of the Frontline family representing four diff8renl univer511ies.
We have continued to develop our partnership with Kairos Connexions (Kxl. This is a network of churches in
the UK and further afield who carry similar core vision and values and are looking lo davelop Missional
Communities as a Central aspect ol their slralegy for growth. We believe the wider connection with Kx
churches brings strength lo Frontline, particularly through the opportunity lo pariicipale in learning
communities, share best practice and access respecled teachers, as woll as offering the opportunity for us lo
support and en¢ourage other churcttès in the UK.
Pro
ecls and mini

Our Christian ethos is the rnotivalion lor investing into and supporting people regardless of religion, gender,
sexu81 orienlalion or race. Our obj8Cts speak of our priority lo see the transformation of people and places by
the practical impact of our Christian faith.
In pursuit of this, in 2012 we supported the eslablishmenl of a new independent charity, Imagine If Trust, lo act
a5 an umbrella organisalion for the development of social Iransformalion projecls. Imagine 11 Trust has a
separate board of Iruslees and is free lo develop in pursuit ol ils own priorities. Frontline, however, continues
to be a major supporter. During the year ended 31 August 2020 Fronlline Trust mad8 grants of £43,350 10

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020
As well as supporting Imagine If Trust projects, Frontline is developing other inilialives that meet the objective
ol seeing Iransformalion in the people and places around us. Our 'Forever Young, inilialive. provides
opportunities lor friendship and support lo the older members of the community. Meeting weekty, these
sessions provide social interaction, fun, 5UPPOrt and a sense of belonging lo the members of the group. This
initiative is now well established with 3 growing repulalion in the local community. 11 has a dedicaled 18am who
serve an increasing number of older members ol our community.
Over the last seven years we have partnered with Imagine If Trust lo host a Christmas lunch for those who arg
homeless or isolated. The team DI over 30 VDlunleers provide great food, lun and a Christmas film lo a
growing number of guests. Last Chflstmas wè provided around 250 Christmas lunches
our thanks lo the
various partners lor the enormous generosity that enables this event lo happen.
During the first pari ol th8 year we continued lo run our Celebrate Recovery ICRI projecl. CR is a Christ
cenlred programme lo help Ihose who want lo overcome life controlling hurts, habits or hang-ups. After a
period of training. the programme was launched in JanLJary 2019 and has been very beneficial lo th8
participants.
All of the projects were impacted in different ways by the coronavifus pandemic. Most had lo shut with only
those providing food and provisions contlnuing on a very reslricled basis. Over the later months ol the year we
have seen somo projects begin lo re-start with many measures in place lo protect stsff and users from
coronavirus. As levels ol inle¢lion have fallen and risen we have had lo remain vigilant and agile lo respond lo
the latest reslriclions and guidelines.
Part ol our core values is lo see the same Iransformalion in other nations that we are working towards in
Liverpool. Most obviously this expresses itself in us sending people and giving finan¢ially lo invest in various
situations around the world. This year, due lo coronavirLJS, we were unable lo have our overseas workers visil
Fronllintt bul we have been able to SUPPOrt them ulilising.digilal technology and il has been fantastic lo have
soma ol them contribute lo our online ¢onlenl despite being thousands of mi5es away
an opportunity we
would not have olherNise had. As well as encouraging our overseas workers, this profil& also encourages Ihe
church to sUPPOrt Ihern and even consider spending some lime overseas Ihefns&lves.
During the year ended 31 August 2020, we supported 24 people who are working in seven drfferenl cwntries
12019.. 24 people working in seven counlriesl. While &ach overseas worker has different opportunities, they all
look to bring Iransforrnation lo the people and plac8s with whom and in which they are living. Some do this
primarily through engaging with those in the workplace and others are more publicly hosllng meetings and
planting churches. We count il as 8 privilege lo have connection with men and women who want lo invest their
lives in this way.
It would normally be aur pra¢ti¢e lo send out short term teams lo work alongside our overseas workers bul
sadly the opportunily lor this has been very lifftiled due lo the travèl bans in place lo limit the spread of
Coronavirus. During the early part of the year 10 people were involved in teams we sent out12019.. 43 people).
Most ol the teams go out in the summer months- a lime wh&n travel has been very restricted.
The best way lo feel part ol a large church is lo gel involved through volunteering. Al Frontline we seek lo offer
relevant and fulfilling opportunities lo our members lo volunteer in pursuit of our vision lo see our aly
'Iranslorrned by grace,.
During the year over 250 members ol Frontline volunteered In over 400 diffgrgnl roles (broadly the same as in
the previous year). These include leading Missional Communities. stewarding in services, assisting with Kids
Zone, providing hospitality, and many. many ￿Ore. Through these pra¢li¢al acts ol service Frontline members
gel lo contribute their gifts and also g81 the benefits of playing their part in a team.
vernan
During the year the Board of Trustees have sou9hl lo ensure that there Is representation from and growing
connection with Ihg different areas of the Frontline lamily. Additionally. we have one Iruslee from outside the
local church who brings a specific skill, experience and perspective lo the board.

Financial review
Oveiall the picture is on8 of the organisation perforrning well despite the pandemic. That said. the Trustees
are vary mindful that the polènlial financial impa¢l could be fell over the next 5.10 years as the e¢onomy
r&¢overs. Virtually all of our income is based on personal donations from our members. As such we are very
mindful that lor many the economic picture looking ahead is very shaky. As their personal income fluctuates, it
would be reasonable lo anticipate that the income lo tho trust will similarly Ilucluale.
In the immediate and short term, the trust finances have performed well, With the lockdown meaning we had
low&r costs due lo not providing services. ws also had lo place a number of 51aff on furlough, as there was no
work for them lo do. This resulted in income frorn the government's Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme.
These two fa¢lors. increased income and reduced expenditure. have meant that our financial performance in
2019120 was not impaired.
Having said this, the Trustees have taken a prudent approach lo the financial future. creating a designated
lund from reserves lo prolocl against a r&duclion in income as the coronavirus pandemic Continues and
governrnent support reduces. Additionally they have prepared a cautious budget for 2020121, anticipating a
15Vo reduction in income and made a number of provislons lo reduce spending in the longer term wlhoul
hilling Ironlline seroicos.
Our core income, which largely derives from individual donations, has fallen slightly over Ihg year lo £690,789
12019.. £732,680). We have genèrally managed lo keep spending within budgetary limits. resulting in a surplus
lor the ytrar of £23,20112019'. deficit tsf £7461
Looking ahead into 2021 the Iruslees continue lo be confident that the organisalion is financial￿ robust
enough lo be a going concern for the next 12 months and that we will maintain our ability lo finance high
quality activities and services which will enable us lo achieve our primary objectives.
Investment pollcy:
There are no reslri¢lions on the inv8slmenl powers of the Iruslees.
Our liquid funds are currently held in various bank savings accounts.
Re5eryes policy:
Our resetve5 policy reflects our desire ID maintsin a liquid reservg io draw on in the event ol any ￿dUction in
our donated income stream, lo provide a measure of protection lo our ability lo deliver our core obpclives. We
continue lo airn lo have a fund of free and liquid reserves equivalent lo at least £30,000.
The Trust's balance sh801 is strong and w911 financed, bul because th8 majority of funds are either reslricled
or designated, managing the day-lo-day cash flow can be more challenging. Operational lfreel reseNes al the
year.end sland al £46,076 {2019.. £48,518) and are above our largel for free reserves.
Deslgnated funds
From lime lo liflle, we decide lo set aside certain funds lo alk>w for the developrnenl ol a new proj8cI or lo
facililale our desire lo support external agencies or individuals. whether in the UK or abroad, whose work
conlribules lo our overarching purposes.
Current funds inclLKfe'.

Risk polScy
The Iruslees have identified Ihe following main risks lo our organisalion and responses lo Ihese risks are
oullined below.
Safel
A Health and Safely policy has been written and signed by the chairman of the board of Iruslees. Work has
been carried out on risk assessments including an assessment of lire safely and asbes105. A staff member
and a Iruslee have been identified as having specific responsibilities for health and safely and the former has
completed their NEBOSH training. Health and Safely induction arid training is provided for all staff and
volunteers as appropriate.
Exle
One ol our potential risks is adverse publicity in an increasingly secular society that can be critical ol Christian
values. Since we are an independent oiganisalion, our membership ol the Evangelical Alliance and Together
for the Harvest, both organisalions locussed on the developrrenl of church co-working, along with clos&
relationships with churches ol various denominations all contribute lo building our credibility. Our presence in
the community also minimises this risk as we work tangibly and visibly lo serve the comtnunity's needs
Child Protection & Vulnerable Adults
A Child Protection and Vulnerable Adults Policy is in place. The Trustees lake very seriously their
responsibility lo protect and safeguard the welfare of childr8n, young people and vulnerable adults enlrusled
lo Frontline's care. All staff and volunteers Inol jusl those who have access lo children. young people and
vulnerable adults) are briefed on their responsibilities and aro made fully aware of the organisalion's child
prolectlon and vulnerable adult's policy and procedures. Any of our staff and volunteers involved in aclivilles
where they may have contact with children, young people or vulnerable adults are required lo undergo DBS
checks. A Safeguarding Team has been appointed and meets regularly lo &nsure that the policy is being
implemented and lo ensure that Ihe policy remains both effective and up to dale.
Financial Risks
Guidelines are issued lo all staff on proper cash handling proc8dures and are updated al least once a year.
Inslru¢lions are issued lo avoid making purchases in cash unless Il is unavoidable. Internal departmental
prc>cedures have been 51andardised. Departmental records and central accounts are monitored règularly and
all dèpartmental budgel holders receive monthly budget performance reports.
The Iruslees have reviewed and updated the policies in relation lo bribery and money laundering and have
provided these lo all slaff along with training in identifying potential areas of risk and how to manage these.
The Iruslees have assessed the financial risk of a downtufn in the economy resulting In a reduction in
donalions and have pul in place a designated fund, the Coronavirus Fund, lo miligale the impact of this.
The IrLJStees have updated policies in line with GDPR legislalion and during the year provided all staff with
training in relation to their responsibilities regardin9 the management and use ol personal csala.
We receive regular guldance on financial risks from our accountant, the Charity Cornmission, HMRC and
various third sector agencies. This keeps us up lo dale with newer areas ol risk. Our accountant also advises
us of any specific a￿aS ol weakness that may be identified during the annual independent examination, so
that we can lake immediate steps lo correcl or protect against them.
During the first half of the year, the trustees p8rlicipaled Sn training In relation lo the idenlrfication and
