Despite the restriction imposed as a result of Covid19 pandemic, the Minister and the Chief Steward continued to phone all the Church members. To all the Stewards, | am very grateful for your dedicated and constant selfless services. A very special thank you is reserved for Eric Walker, although not a Church steward, kept the church building covid-19 secure throughout the lock down.

## WESLEY HOUSE REPORT 

| 

Stratford Methodist has leased Wesley House Hostel, which has 14 rooms to Just Homes for five years, Trustees for Methodist Church Purposes TMCP was involved in the arrangement. Just Homes is a charity, which provides help to homeless people in The London Borough of Newham, to rebuild their lives. 

Just Homes reports to Wesley House Committee quarterly which reports to Trustees of Stratford Methodist Church at Church Council meetings. There is a very good working relationship between Stratford Methodist Church and Just Homes. 

## Overview: 

Just Homes are in their 4° Year of managing Wesley House and have full occupancy. The team are on site daily and have been maintaining the property very well. The council increased their funding this year and they've passed on this to us, in-line with our agreement. We have not had any meetings with Just Homes during this period, however we are in regular communications with them and issues are resolved when they arise. 

Over the past 12 months, Just Homes - our outreach partner have continued to manage Wesley House. They have had full occupancy for the whole period and have provided vital accommodation to men sleeping on the street and parks around the Stratford area. 

. | 

| 

Our partnership have grown stronger during this period and thus far they are up to date in settling all their invoices. All their bills have been paid on time and they have passed on to us the funding increase allocated to them by the local authority, as per our license agreement. 

Following the incident with the broken shower hose last year, new signage are inplace within the showers and all residents are inducted on how to use the shower. 

~4- 



Furthermore, the Electric Shower with the broken hose has been replaced. 

2 : | | :) 

## Major Repairs 

They has been one major repair over past 12 months, which was due to leaking shower trays. The root cause of the leak was "poorly supported shower tray", this led to the sealed joint between the tiles and the shower tray being broken and water escaping through the gap onto the floor below. 

All 3 shower enclosures had to be dismantled and the base reinforced with timber and plywood before being re-assembled. 

The current license agreement expires Oct 22, thus we have started the process with regards to it's renewal. 

## COMMUNITY CENTRE REPORT 

The centre continues to function well with more and more enquiries daily. That said, we are very selective of who/whom the venue is hired to. The revenue generated is not as it were pre Covid - 19. Thankfully 95% of our regular users have returned and we have acquired one more regular users but lost 30% overall. That said, we receive several enquires who are willing to take their place should they fulfil the criteria. This means that our revenue is almost back to the level it was at prior to the pandemic. 

All our community users are back and the major change has been teaming up with Sphere, a charity who obtain food, donations and baby items to assist the community elderly, mothers and the homeless. They currently sue the centre twice a week and provision has been made to accommodate them fully. The only outstanding challenge awaiting is to create a formal agreement for the partnership. We are also yet to obtained any information about the donations obtain via the Facebook through the night shelter organisers. There is also a notion that we could resume the night shelter back at the centre provided volunteers are obtained and re-trained. We currently run a food bank on Monday and Wednesdays. We also have a new Latin American Dance company using our premises. 

| | | 

We still require volunteers to assist at the community centre during the day (weekdays or weekends) as this wo help the centre immensely with enquires. Painting: We aim to complete the painting of the main hall after painting the stage area with revised quotations. 

5. 



| |. 

Ongoing task at present We need people to help Dorothy and Pam on Thursdays Volunteers needed for our monthly table top sale. Changing the church carpet with the donation obtained / Deep clean church carpet Reviewing the telephone contract Temporary volunteering at the centre and long term volunteering opportunities Yet to receive all the licence in place from a few regular users as well as the insurances and reviewed safe guarding policy and personal. 

## Medium to long term 12- 46 months 

Maximising the usage of our building for the purpose of what it is intended, seeking feasibility to develop the upper part of the main hall and replacing the roof

CHAIRPERSON’S REPORT 

We give thanks to God as the year draws to a close. 

Looking back, the whole world experienced an unprecedented crisis that as have been said never happened before. 

The world was hit with Coronavirus 19. This prompted the governments in the world to take drastic actions in terms of lockdowns in many countries. The United Kingdom was not exempt, so we had our share of lockdown. This sudden announcement demanded that people stayed at home except front line workers. 

| | | 

| | | 

## This affected the Churches including the Stratford Methodist Church. 

During that time, we followed the Government and Methodist District Office guidelines about the Covid 19 and locked our Church to safeguard all our members especially our elderly and vulnerable members. Risk Assessments were often carried out to help members stay safe. 

Sadly, the church lost two of our elderly members. May their souls rest in peace with God. 

At that time the Pastoral Carers and the Minister reached out to almost all the Church members regularly by phone calls to keep them company and check their welfare. The Circuit also organised Zoom Services, enabling members to Worship which really helped members Spiritual wellbeing. Again, the Church organised Bible Studies and Prayers meetings on Zoom which were very appreciated and continues till now even though we are back in Church in person. 

The Church also sent out Food parcels and financial support to some of our members to show them our Christ’s given love. Furthermore, the Church participated in the Easter Story in Schools on Zoom by Faith in Schools making the love and sacrifice of Christ our Lord known to pupils and teachers about Christianity as well as the Christmas Journey Story in Schools. 

The Church was again involved with the Westfield Chaplaincy, chatting, listening and praying with Shopkeepers, shoppers and Hotel workers and was very appreciated just before the Covid 19 hit.

Once more the Church with Keir Hardie Methodist Church supported and filled in about 50 Christmas Shoe Boxes for less fortunate children abroad through the Samaritan Purse with donations for posting the boxes. 

ON THE CHURCH PREMISES: In the Church premise, we started Foodbank led by Nicole ( Which organisation is Nicole ... and some of the Church members. Thanks to Amy, Stuart and Eric from the Church who helped regularly. 

We had some Super Markets donating food to be distriobuted to people in the Community and beyond. Those who could not come out due to health reasons had food sent to their homes. 

Thank God there was a real community spirit in looking after one another in the Church and the Community. Our Church premises was used as Hubs for School Children during holidays and continues to support school children during this Christmas holidays with cooked food and activities and gifts. 

| | | 

| ! 

Now the Churchis still worshipping physically observing the covid guidelines and pray for God’s intervention for the new omicron variant to enable people to worship freely as much as possible. 

However, may God's will be done in His world but to help people to be rooted morein faith in Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour. 

We thank God through Christ Jesus and A big thank you to all our Church members, families and friends who have helped and supported the Churches to keep going in these difficult situations. 

On behalf of my family and the Church community, | wish you all A wonderful Christmas and a Peaceful New Year that Christ Jesus brings to all those who put their trust in Him. 

God bless you and all your families. Please stay safe.

## RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES 

The Charity Trustees have responsibilities to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charity as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including income and expenditure, for the financial year. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees should follow best practice and: 

| | | 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent ; and 

| 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the company will continue on that basis 

The trustees are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records, which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial! position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charity Law. Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## Independent Examiners Report to the Trustees of Stratford Methodist Church 

| report on the attached Financial Statements for the year ended 31 August 2021, which are set on pages 10 to 15 and have been prepared on an accrual basis. 

Respective responsibilities of Management Committee and Examiner: The Charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination needed. 

## It is my responsibility to: 

examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act; 0 to follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

Basis of Independent Examiner’s Statement: My examination carried out in accordance with general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity 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 connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention, which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: 

Accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act or the accounts do not accord with the accounting records 

| have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
