ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

The Church started meeting as a small group in a house in early January 2005 and decided to gather as a congregation on 16 January 2005 using the Hall and other facilities provided by Thurleston High School (which subsequently became Ormiston Endeavour Academy), Defoe Road, Ipswich.

The Church has with effect from 27 May 2012 moved its main activities to its new Church Centre, Wilberforce Street, Ipswich, IP1 2JP, premises previously owned and occupied by Clarkson Street Free Church ("the church Centre"). On 1st May 2012 the legal title to the church centre was transferred to the Church (together with that to a freehold residential property at 19 Elmhurst Drive, Ipswich, which had previously been the Clarkson Street Free Church manse) without payment of any consideration as part of an arrangement whereby the charity called Clarkson Street Free Church was dissolved and merged into Ipswich Community Church

The Church is led by an overall leader assisted by a team of departmental and small group leaders and the trustees. And, this year we have developed a Transition Team to assist in the change of overall Church Leader as Rod Stone is retiring in April 2022.

The charitable company continues to develop its core activities including Sunday Celebrations, Friendship Groups, Prayer Meetings, Alpha & Beta Courses and other courses to develop and strengthen the faith of our Members.

It was recognized that there was a demand for improving English skills within the multi-ethnic neighbourhood surrounding the church centre, and so English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) Courses have been run both by the Church on its own account and in partnership with local community interest company, Ipswich Community Media.These haven't been running for the last couple of years but we intend to restart these when we have the ability to do so.

A crèche and 2 children's groups operate on a Sunday morning during the main celebration and a "Connected Youth Friendship Group" on Monday evenings..

In the past, the church has contributed teams to the Ipswich Soup Kitchen and Town Pastors. This is not happening currently.

We employed a part time youth worker in partnership with a local Charity (Christian Youth Ministry) from November 2017 to June 2018. We look for opportunities to grow this work again. A member of our church is a trustee with CYM and another member works with Youth For Christ in Diss, Norfolk.

Interest in our web site www.icchurch.co.uk continues to be evidenced. We have used our presence on Facebook to help publicise our activities and our services have been of a hybrid nature for those using Zoom during the time of the Covid-19 pandemic. This has continued for Sunday mornings as well as for Friendship Groups. We also publicise our preaches on the website, on Facebook and on YouTube.

Over the years, the church has organized and hosted a number of neighbourhood events. These have included a Royal Tea Party on Tuesday 5 June 2012 as part of the celebrations for the Queen' Diamond Jubilee and some 250 local residents joined in the fun. We also took part in the Queens 90th birthday celebrations and helped in the organising of a street party. We joined with our neighbours in July 2019 to help run a street party where we provided hot dogs.

Report of the Trustees

for the Year Ended 31 December 2021

Alternative Halloween events have been held occasionally and these have proved popular in the locality and resulted in additional students on our ESOL Courses and Alpha participants. We've held a number of community Mad Hatter's Tea Parties. A Halloween party was held in October 2018. We gave away hot dog sausages for this year's Halloween and have also given daffodil bulbs to the neighbouring houses around our Church Centre for Easter 2021 (about 200 in all).

In 2021 we continued to curtail our congregational activities in the Church Centre until June 2021 and hadn't physically met in any premises since March 2020 due to the Covid-19 Pandemic. This has moved all of our activities online and we have used Zoom and YouTube (we set up a new YouTube Channel for ICC) and have been posting our videos to YouTube and to Facebook.We have continued to look for ways to reach out to the local community and delivered daffodil bulbs to around 200 neighbouring homes for Easter 2021 and we gave hot sausage dogs to passers by at Halloween 2021. We have also recently run two Alpha courses online.

We are continuing to seek to identify the other needs of the local community and, whilst ensuring that we do not overlap or duplicate activities that are already being offered in the area, we will be doing our best to see how the Church can respond in the days ahead. In 2016 we sold the Elmhurst Road property and replaced it with the residential property immediately adjacent to the church centre on its Clarkson Street frontage (41, Clarkson Street). This has been let to a charity called Anglia Care Trust under the terms of the Government's Scheme for settling Syrian refugees and a refugee family have been in occupation since September 2016

During the year the trustees have paid due regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit.

Report of the Trustees

FINANCIAL REVIEW

General fund

The general fund shown in the Balance Sheet represents funds not utilized in the company's 17 years of operation since January 2005.

Financial results and state of affairs

The total income for the year was £56,118 (2020 £57,333). Expenditure was £43,042 (2020 £62,940). These figures were in accordance with our expectations.

Investment Policy

The company's investment policy is to achieve maximum returns given medium to low risk. Investments are deemed short term and are currently invested in cash on deposit.

Reserves policy

The trustees have agreed that reserves will be held to cover 6 months of normal expenditure (based on the current budget for the next 6 months, or, if no budget is in place for that period, previous 6 months actuals). The calculations for this would not include restricted funds or specific special projects for which funds have been designated. The purpose of this policy is to provide adequate time to adjust to changing circumstances and to make necessary adjustments to expenditure should the need arise.

The actual free reserves at the end of the year in general reserves is £252,468 (2020 - £239,392) less carrying value of functional assets of £291,269 (2020 - £291,269) which is a deficit of £38,801 (2020 - £51,877). The trustees note that the current low free reserves is attributable to the fact the definition excludes the functional fixed assets, but it includes the long term loan that is secured on those assets. For the purposes of short and medium term financial management, the trustees are concerned more with the management of working capital, and if the reserves calculation is adjusted by the loan term loan, then the reserves policy is currently being met.
