This work operates in collaboration with our night time colleagues. including the Emergency Servitrs. benefitting the night time economy as a key factor in Guildford's Purple Flag accreditation. The project also contributes significantly to the safety of the public who use the night time economy in Guildford. which in turn takes pressure away from the Ernergency Services, saving a certain amount of their resources. A regular process of recruitment and training goes on each year. Our volunteers are a diverse and dedicated group. spanning a broad age range with some in their 20s and some in their 80s. Whilst not all volunteers are Christians. those that belong to a range of churches and denominations across Guildford and the surrounding areas. Ongoing monitoring of the quality of the service takes place by the coordinator. in collaboration with the Chaplain, through supporhng the volunteers in action and responding to feedback from the team reports and in collaboration with our night time colleagues.

Guildford Town Centre Cha lain ort of thè Trustees for the Year Ended 31 Dember 2024 OBJEcfivES AND ACTIVITIES Volunteer Chaplain5 The project places trained volunteer chaplains over a range of businesses and organisation5 in the town and community to support staff and members of the public. The chaplains bring a non-judgmental, confidential listening ear and a commitment to enhance wellness. They will pray with people if asked in the pla5 they visit. Public benefit The Trustees recognise the duty imposed upon them by the Charrties Act 2011, Section 17 and also the requirement to have due regard to the general guidance provrded by the Charity Commission in connection with Public Benefit. The Chaplaincvs chief objective is to help those in need in variou5 settings in the town and to advance Christian support by means of a chaplaincy based within Guildford town centre and serving the local community. This is accomplished through three main initiatives- Street Angels. Community Ange15 and Volunteer Chaplains. The Street Angels operate every Friday and Saturday night and interact with members of the public who have become vulnerable for whatever reason. The Community Ange15 provide support and befriending to lonely people in their own homes seeking to help them connect with the wider community- The Volunteer Chaplains support those in need of a listening ear in a workplace settin& including GP surgerie5. ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activitie5 Street Ange15 The street Angels continue to serve people in Guildford with a selfless. compassionate. and positive presence. This vital work is only possible thanks to our extraordinary volunteers, who have become an integral part of the town's night-time economy, whether by supporting homeless individua15. assisting those who are unwell or simply offering a helping hand when needed. Over the past year. we were delighted to welcome six newly trained volunteers. bringing our team of active Angels to 49 by yearf5 end. Our friendly patrols have also been joined by visitors keen to experience our late-night service, including HM Lord-kneutenant of Surrey, Michael More-molyneux and the Mayor of Guildford. Sallie Barker. We are especially grateful to the many individuals and groups who have supported us. whether taking part in the Angel Ascent at Guildford Cathedral. running quizzes, or contributing to community events such a5 the Best Bar None Awards delivered by Experience Guildford.

Guildford Town Centre Cha lain Re ort of the Trustee5 forthe Year Ended 31 December2024 ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Comrnunity Angels Community Angels volunteers have had another busy year, delivering face-to-face befriending to adults of all ages in Guildford borough who are lonely or socially i501ated. In 2024 our clients ranged in age from 32 to 96, with 38% younger than 65. Many of our clients face a complex mix of issues. including mental ill-health. chronic physical conditions and disability, cost-of-living challenges, increasing frailty and bereavement. Our befriending aims to alleviate feelings of loneliness, facilitate access to support in the community and encourage social connections. improving the quality of life and increasing the confidence of our clients. During 2024, Community Angels received 106 referrals from a wide range of agencies and individuals, including NHS social prescribing. Adult Social Care, Citizen5 Advice and Surrey Police. We supported 61 clients and Eave assessment visits and signposting inforniation, where appropriate. to the rest. Volunteer availabilty limits our capacity and the Community Angels Coordinator ha5 worked closely with two local volunteer recruitment agencies to publicise volunteer opportunities. We trained 9 new Community Angels in 2024 and had 45 active volunteers over the course of the year. Volunteer support is a priority for us= we are available to our volunteers by phone, ernail or in person over a coffee at the office or our volunteer drop-ins. In October we held an evening of'top-up, training in supporting people with Bereavement. L055 and Change. which was well attended and much appreciated. Volunteer Chaplains The Volunteer Chaplaincy project continues to grow with an increase in awareness and openness to Chaplaincy generally. We recruited two new volunteers during 2024. taking the total to 16 with the number of placements increasing to 9. Our volunteers are non-judgmentsl and provide a carin& listening presen. Since the successful placement of our first Chaplain in a GPS surgery in 2021, we recruited our fourth volunteer GP chaplain in 2Q24 and offered the chaplaincy servi to new surgeries. Patients needing someone to tslk to can book appointments so freeing up GPS time. Feedback from GPS is that this Servi is exceptionally helpful, bringing positive outcomes and with evidence that the number of repeat appointments for patients consulting about their mental ill health have reduced. We have Chaplains serving in a diverse range of other setttngs, including a Women'5 Hostel. a Retirement Complex and with Surrey Police and for the first time have introduced a chaplain to both a large secondary school and entertainment venue to supportthe staff there. All the chaplaincies are very much in demand. We held our first Conference forthe widerchaplaincy comrnunity this year with 75 attendees. who were all either interested, exploring or 5UPPOrting others in chaplaincy. We received overwhelmingly positive feedback and are encouraged to make this an annual event. Our informal monthly prayer meeting at St. Marvs Church in Quarry Street continues to meet at noon on the first Tuesday of every month, offering GTCC supporters the opportunty to come together. encourage each other and to pray for GTCC and our town. We have also held a social for our volunteers and trialled some listening trainin& continuing to invest in our tearn and building relationships with each other. Page 4

Guildford Town Centre Cha lain Re ort of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2024 FINANCIAL REVIEW Financial positron The Trustees set a budget for 2024 wfch a projected deficit of £35.000. This decision was tsken to ensure there was Sufficient funding to grow the Volunteer Chaplain5 project, without having to cut funding to the other projects. It was hoped that the charity would be able to significantly outperform this budget by raising income and that the actual deficit would be more sustainable. Before taking this decision, the Trustees ensured that there were sufficient reserves to absorb the budgeted deficit. However, a large deficit would reduce the reserves to the point that it wouldn't be possible to set a deficit budget in 2025. The accounts show that the charity ended up wtth a surplus for 2024 of £6.658. This was an incredible result, with the charity outperforming the budget by over £40,000. The main reason for overperformance was an increase in grant income with several local organisations increasing their grant contribution5 and a one-off grant of £13,000 from the Guildford Mayorf5 Fund to support Volunteer Chaplains. Our Angel Ascent fundraising event was also very successful, raising over £10,000 for the charity. In 2025, the charity has approved a budget with a projected deficit of £16K. Although we're a still projecting a deficit. this is a significant turnaround in the charivs finances with the deficit representing a much lower percentage of the reserves. With a significant proportion of the grant income for 2025 already guaranteed. the charity is well place to once again outperform the projection and avoid a deficit altogether. The Trustees are deeplygrateful to the many individuals and organisation5 who donated their time and money to the work of the Chaplaincy and hope that many more will suppor¢ financially and prayerfully. the board'5 vision for growth and development. The serveS position of the charity remains strong with totsl reserves at the end of 2024 of £107,835. With £82,869 being unrestrirted for general use and £24,966 being restricted, rnainly forthe Street Ange15 and Volunteer Chaplain projects. This equate5 to around 11 months of charity expenditure, which the Trustees deem to be more than sufficient. Reserves policy The Trustees aim to maintain adequate cash reserves to protert the Chaplaincy against short terni changes in its financial circumstances and the uncertain timing in receipt of income. The approach taken has been to assess and quantify the financial risk to each separate funding stream to which has been added the budgeted shortfall for 2025 of £16,000. This policy requires Reserves totalling £76.000 at 31 December 2024. As outlined in the financial position above, this total was exceeded. The additional reserves are Still crucial in ensure the charity can continue to support the Volunteer Chaplains project and to cover possible fijture deficits. Page 5

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT ON THE ACCOUNTS

Report to the trustees/members of Guildford Town Centre Chaplaincy on the accounts for the year ended 31st December 2024.

RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER

The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144 (2) of the Charities Act 2011) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

examine the accounts (under section 145 of the 2011 Act),
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act), and
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT

My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the organisation and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT

In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention

which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the trustees have not met the requirements to ensure that:
proper accounting records are kept (in accordance with section 130 of the Act); and
accounts are prepared which agree with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act; or
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
