Achievements and performance
At the beginning of 2024, we continued to enhance the programme of events held both for the church and the
community building on the previous year.
We continue to hold services on the Sunday and continue to broadcast our services as a Livestream through
YouTube to audiences now joining us both locally and across the world. We have also been recording and
broadcasting items through local radio. We have continued to hold our evening service focussing on worship
called the 'worship café, with new people attending and held baptism services.
In 2024 we have seen an increase in attendance on Sunday morning with new people coming in almost weekly.
Our youth work has continued to grow. The Youth Cafe for young people is particularly popular among upper
junior school ages with over 25 attending weekly, though as the academic year ended a number ended their
involvement as new younger children began to attend. Our Youth worker alongside our placement degree
students from Moorlands College and volunteers across the church have been working to cater for the needs of
young people both in the church and the community with artivities on Wednesday afternoons and evenings.
Friday evenings and Sunday mornings and working in one secondary school in the area one day a week with
another local charity called PACE and in partnership with other churches.
Children's work continues on a Sunday morning for all ages of children. This has also grown over the course of
the year. The midweek under 5s work called Twynham Tots and has continued to grow though the year with a
healthy team of volunteers and a café for parents attending from the community.
The 'Friendship Group, continues to be popular for people from the community who may otherwise be lonely.
This also acts as a 'Warm Space, for those struggling to heat their homes and who need a place to meet that is
warm and friendly during the cost of living crisis.
We held one Alpha Group in the Autumn term. Alpha is a basic introduction to the Christian faith and wa5
attended by a good number of people thi5 year.
The church has continued to develop the 'Connect Groups, (small groups of up to 12-15 people). Connect
Groups are smaller elements of church that meet regularly to pray, support and discuss. These meet in various
locations across the conurbation.
We have continued to run a men's breakfast group called Chap's Chat Cafe meeting on a Thursday morning
once a month. We also continue to hold other men's activities attended by several church men and their
friends.
We have also enabled the church to be used by other external groups. These include= Slimming World, NHS
retirement fellowship, NHS Diabetes Clinic. Pilates groups, an anxiety group, table tennis group and
opportunities for other group events.
In addition, we have held various community events to support people and raise money for the Twynham
Community Link building project including: Jumble Sale. a plant sale. a Cream Tea and a very popular 'Christmas
Fair, all of which were extremely well received and attended raising approximately £10,000 for the Link project.
In September 2024 we commenced the build for phase l of the Link Projert with a £350,000 new hall being
constructed. This was completed mid-2025 with ongoing fund raising for phase 2 to follow.
Our Pastor Rob Watson was released to go on Sabbatical from the end of June to the end of September 2024
and was able to undertake a trip to Japan visiting a missions partner and preaching as well as exploratory trips
to a large church in Ohio in the USA for fact finding and study at London School of Theology to bring into the
Twynham setting.

The Manse, previously occupied by the pastor, is held as an investment property as it is now rented to a
third party. The property was transferred from property, plant and equipment to investment property
during 2016 at its previous valuation of £325.000. As at the 31 December 2016 the property was revalued
by a Chartered Surveyor at £395.000 and a fair value adjustment was included in 2017. The Trustees believe
that the value of the Manse at 31 December 2024 remains £395,000. No taxation 15 provided on the fair
value adjustment due to the exemption available for the charity under Section 485 CTA 2010.
