Annual Reportfor 2020
Structure, governance and management
The Trustees present their Annual Report and financial statements for 2020, a year
inevitably dominated by the impacts of the COVID19 pandemic and the church's responses
to this.

The name of the church is New Road Baptist Church. The Church operates under a

Public benefit
The Trustees have paid due regard to the Charity Commission's guidan￿ on public benefit.
The Church's worship serVI￿S are open to all. as is Open Church. The church encourages
charitable social action in diverse ways, including through donations to different causes and
through our support forthe Oxford Winter Night Shelter and the Mint House, Oxford Centre
for Restorative Practice. As circumstances pemiti, our premises are also widely used by
organisations seeking to serve Oxtord and the surrounding area in different ways.
Overview of 2020
2020 was a year of high challenge and significant discovery. The year started wtth attention
to fabric matters-. refurbishment of the church kttchen,. manse improvements," a community
energy audit of the church premises and progression of lease negotiations with St Peter's
College. We were pleased to join with hOME. a new expression of church. for an Ash
Wednesday Labyrinth in the chapel. In late February the Keyworth family were at last able to
move to the manse after six months in temporary accommodation. Plans were made for a
varied summer programme aimed at building up the fellowship. deepening our discipleship
and engaging with the city-
The risks posed by COVID19, and restrictions to curb the spread of the pandemic,
highlighted the fragility of these plans. For six months, from 20 March 2020 to 20 September
2020, and again from 27 December the chapel was dosed for Sunday worship. For much of
this time the premises were closed for all other activities also, with ex￿ptIonS including
summer-time weekly opening for reflective prayer and Open Church sessions in Bonn
Square. Even when the chapel could reopen, health con￿M$ prevented many from
worshipping in person while COVID precautions required many adjustments in how worship
was conducted and in other activities hosted by the churGh.
Reflecting this upheaval. much time and attention was given through the year to developing
new ways of being church that were independenl of our building. The church also continued
to engage with a range of social justice issues, also looking to integrate these into the
worship life of the congregation.
Achievements and perforniance
Developing new ways of being church
New Road responded to lockdown by moving to worshipping via Zoom, then later to 'mixed
mode, worship combining worship via Zoom and worship in the chapel. Elements of
services have been reproduced on YouTube. with content shared also via a 'Minister's B50g'
and in a weekly news sheet. Other online expressions of church have included.. regular
Wednesday evening prayers., an online Lent study series,. daily prayers in Holy Week and
Advent,. House Blend - a fortnightly'virtual teashop intrOdU￿d in late November and that
helps friends to keep in touch- 'Space@New Road. a pilot initiative geared to students", a
church WhatsApp group", and occasional online quizzes. We have also been keen to reflect
on and enhance our practice, including through discussion with colleagues in other
churches.

Trustees, Report for the Year Ended 31 De￿mL￿r 2020
Developing new ways of being church (continued)
We remain acLrtely awa￿ of the limitations of meeting online. Inclusivrty is a key
consideration- while offering help and support to those less familiar with online platforms, we
know that these do not work for all and so cannot be relied on exclusively. We have found
providing for young people to be a challenge_ Participatory worship needs approaching in
different ways and requires more careful planning. It is harder for new people to feel part of
things. Unless orchestrated. there are fewer opportunities for the on￿t0-one or small group
conversalions that happen organically when meeting fac&tO-face. and that help nourish
relalionships. Technical skills- and volunteers - are also needed.
Equally, we have been encouraged by a strong sense of shared worship and fellowship and
challenged to think radically about how we can keep using our building without being 'locked
in rf(, and how we can function more effectively as a 'scattered people., It has been a thrill to
be joined by friends from around the world, to have barriers to worship removed for people in
poor hea￿h, housebound or away from home and to have more opportunities to engage with
others, bringing in fresh perspectives. The 'collective conversations. made possible via Zoom
have strengthened connections within the church comrnunty. Not needing to Iravel makes
joining activities such as daily prayers more feasible and climate friendly. We have also
appreciated the many opportunities for creativity in music and other areas of worship.
Working with others to advance social justice
The church bade farewell to Oxford's Community Hub for homeles5 people when il moved to
purpose-built premises. Christian Aid also ￿aSed to operate from our premises in July 2020
following a closure of the regional office as part of a restructuring exercise.
Work continued to advance social Justi￿ in other ways. From January to mid-march New
Road again hosted 10 beds for the Oxford Winter Night Shelter (OWNS). A powerful
demonstration of co-ordinated community action. OWNS as a whole provided 10-15 guests
each night with a warm dry place to stay (1,017 individual night stays in lotal) with support
from 450 volunteers. During the season, 260A of guests settled into accommodation.
Based at. and supported by. the church. the Mint House, Oxford Centre for Restorative
Practice hosled 5unchtime talks on The Art of Restorative Conversation and on restorative
practice in schools, while also providing reflection space and developing Iraining to support
use of restorative approaches across the Oxfordshire children's workforce.
COVID restrictions prevented us from hosting our hoped-for physical exhibition with Painting
for Freedom as part of Oxford Artweeks. aimed at raising funds and awareness of Freeset's
work to help women exrt the sex trade in Wesl Bengal. We were. though, delighted to be
joined by Richard Kidd and Mike Lowe from Painting for Freedom for an online Artweeks
service, including a filmed update from Freeset colleagues in West Bengal and wtth a
chance to purchase art online.

Worklng with others to advance social justice (continued)
In octo1￿r 2020, the church was pleased to mark Black History Month by celebrating the
work of pioneering black nurses.
The church continued to make grants from the Charfton LFving Legacy Fund to support
Baptist Churches within Oxfordshire to engage wf(h their local communrties in new and
imaginative expressions of mission. Grants were awarded through the year to.. Orchard
8aptist Church, Bicester. for the continuing development of ministry and oulreach into the
Graven Hill estate., for welcome cards and hosprtalty by the AnglicanlBaptist partnership on
Didcot's Ladygrove estate- towards ministry in Wolvercote,. and to contribute to Deb Rooke's
ongoing role as chaplain of Qxford United Women's Football Team.
The church does not measure the success of rts programmes only in numbers and finances,
but also in the less tangible areas of fellowship, encouragement and spiritual growth, and
how, individually and collectively. members show the love of Jesus Christ in our daily lives.
Ouring 2020 5 members moved to other churches, 1 member resigned and two members
died. At 31 De￿mber 2020, membership stood at 55, a decrease of 8. Weekly attendan
ranged from 35 and 70 participants wtth an average of 42 individuals taking part in worship
each week.
Financial Review
The church remains financially secure, largely through the generosity and foresight of
current and past members. The financial challenges brought about by the national and local
measures ne￿$sary to combat the spread of the COVID19 pandemic undedined this
strength as, despile significant reductions in many types of income. the church was able to
maintain its life and witness, including all planned grants and donations to other
organisalions, without drawing upon reserves accumulated over many years. The trustees
have considered forecasts of income and expenditure to 31 De￿rnber 2022 taking into
account the potential continuing irnpact of the COVID19 pandemic and are satisfied that the
church will be able to continue fulfilling its mission. Accordingly. the accounts have been
prepared on a going concem basis.
The church is grateful to its fai(hful members who continued to make regular unrestricted
voluntary donations throughout the time the church was unable to welcome them to worship
on the premises, including those who moved to making such donations by direct transfer to
the church's bank account. Nevertheless. unrestricted voluntary offerings fell by 270h as
occasional conlribulions during servI￿s, including those from new members of the
congregation, were inhibited. The magnitude of this reduction was unpre￿de￿ted but merely
accentuated an unwelcorne trend in recent years.
The church also saw reductions in its other SoUr￿S of income. Income from charitable
activities fell by one-third, partly as a resu￿ of the loss of income from the manse (which had
been let to tenants prior to the arrival of our minister and his family in late summer 2019), the
planned move of the Homeless Hub, hosted foi Oxford Cty Council, into purpose-built
premises in early summer 2020 and the closure of the regional Christian Aid office which
had occupied the third floor of the premises Sin￿ 2016. The restrictions on group meetings

Trustees, Report for the Year Ended 31 December 2020
Financial Review {continued)
at various times from March 2020- and the associated Un￿rtaIntieS that affected planning
of any gathering - nevertheless had a significant impact on other causal room bookings.
Similarly, prolonged periods of severely curtailed trade meant that investment income from
the church's leasehold property was reduced by over 560h as the church cooperated with its
tenant by accepting rent reductions as a means of protecting the long-temi viability of Ihe
business. Fortunately, the long-temi lease of the churth's freehold properties to St Peter's
College, agreed in 2019, provided a guaranteed increase of over 270A in this componenl of
investment income, mitigating the falls in income from other sources.
Other ad hoc sources of income also helped mrtigate the reductions in regular income in
2020. Grants under the Govemment's Job Retention Scheme met up to 80Yo of the cost of
retaining the Church Administrator on fudough for large parts of the year., a one-off
compensation payment for the lass of a right to light consequent upon the construction of a
new building by St Peter's College was received during the year.. and a grant towards the
cost of ministry was re￿iVed from the historic Goring Trust.
The net effect was that the church's total income fell by 21°A in the year and its unrestricted
income by 25%.
Nevertheless. the church was able to fund all the activities that were pemissible under the
various phases of pandemic reslnctions - and make all the grants planned - wrthout drawing
on reserves. Total expenditure fell by 11 % due to two principal factors. Grants from the
Charlton Living Legacy Fund were 42 % lower than the previous year, reflecting a lower level
of applications and delayed starts for activities to be funded by the grants. Establishment
costs were also 110A lower than in 2019 as savings were made on utility costs, routine
repairs and maintenance and even cleaning costs (despite enhan￿d hygiene levels) as the
premises were effectively closed for long penods during the year. On a more positive note,
the long-planned and eagerly anticipated refurbishment of the kitchen on the church
premises was substantially completed {although not commissioned) before national
restrictions were ne￿SSary towards the end of March. The church looks forward to being
able lo deploy the pristine. well*quipped facilty in support of its mission and charitable
objectives as soon as possible in the future.
The experiences of 2020 undedine once again the extent to which the church remains
heavily dependent on ils members and congregation working as volunteers in all aspects of
its activities, many of which run with little or no impact on the church's expenditure, but
nevertheless contribute substantially to the achievement of the church's objectives.
Grants to various organisations wtth aims and objecttves compatible with the Church's own
charitable purpose amounted to £22,300 from Unrestricted Funds and a further £13,058
from Restricted Funds during the year. The latter largely comprised fLSrther grants from the
Charlton-on-otmoor Living Legacy Fund for the innovative new mission activities associated
with Baptist churches in and around Oxford descrikd above.
The financial results for the year, together with a summary of the accounting policies
adopted are set out in the accompanying financial statements.

Financial Review (continued)
The deacons have established an investment policy that aims
to protect any surplus funds from diminution in value whilst achieving an ac￿Ptable
return
avoid over-re11an￿ on any one investment vehicle by dividing funds for investment
over more than one investment provider
share the church's financial good fortune by making a proFX)rtion of surplus funds
available to other Baptist churches through the Baptist Loans Fund
This policy was Gomplied with during the report year.
The Deacons have established a Reserves Policy that aims to maintain liquid resetves at
least equivalent to the average rental income from tts leasehold property (reduced to
£14,700 in 2020, fof reasons described above,. the £33.568 for 2019 provides a more
realistic benchmark for the reserves policy}. This policy was complied wtth at 31 December
2020. The Deacons have noted that this policy has enabled the church to absorb the
expected continued shortfalls in income consequent upon the COVID19 pandemic whilst
maintaining planned activities and donations for at least 12 months from the date of signing
these report and accounts.
Risk management
The Deacons have assessed the major risks facing the church and PLrt plans in place to
mitigate Ihem. The exercise to reassess the major risks from a fresh perspective completed
in 2020 reflected the potential long-term impacts of the COVID19 pandemic in the church's
risk register. The annual review in 2021 has On￿ again benefitted from the fresh insights
that new Trustees bring to long-stsnding as well as emeiging issues.
Future Plans
We will continue to navigate COVID restrictions with great care and with high regard for the
wellbeing of the church congregation. users of our premises and the wider Community. As
conditions allow we look forward to combining in-person with online worship, prayer, Bible
Study and other opportunities for deepening discipleship, strengthening links both within our
fellowship and around the globe. In his forthcoming sabbatical our Minister Jon Keyworth,
plans to explore use of online tools in ministry.
We look forward to engaging furtherwith our partners in the local quartet of churches and to
collaborating with others to advan￿ Christ's kingdom by promoting social justi￿. This
includes developing a 'Just Oxford. project and related mission cycle that integrales worship
and social Justi￿.. seeking new users of our premises consistent with our vision., and
resuming our engagement with Bonn Square. We will continue in our efforts to be inclusive,
including by engaging with the Creating Sanctuary resources and supporting the sharing of
experience by Creating Sanctuary facilitators.
