## Trustees’ Annual Report 

## For the year ended 31[st] August 2024 

## Introduction 

Welcome to our report for 2023/2024.  This has been an exciting year for us – continuing growth in our Children’s and Youth Work, Growth in our Wesley Centre Users, a refurbished organ (all paid for), and several new, but very necessary Property Projects with the aim of ‘Bsafe, B-Warm’ 

## Aims and organisation 

Camborne Wesley – _Working out faith in Christ_ 

Our Vision is to work towards the growth of the Kingdom of God in Camborne through a commitment to nurturing, worship, mission and service. 

_The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself in love_ 

## Achievements of the year 

## • **Children’s Work (0-18 years)** 

We are proud to report that our work with children really does cover the age range 0-18 years. It is led by Sandy Jose who oversees all the community work with babies and toddlers, and Hannah Green whose work is primarily faith-based with community outreach as well. 

## **Toddlers and Babies Clubs** 

Wesley Toddler Group has had another very successful year.  We have between 80 and 100 children attending our groups each week. 

We have been lucky enough to be awarded another grant from the Tesco Stronger Start scheme and are currently waiting to hear how much this will be.  The minimum amount is £500 with a maximum of £1500.  We will use the money to improve our physical development area and hope to purchase climbing frames, safety matting and other physical toys. We feel this is important as many of our families are in temporary accommodation without outdoor space. 

We have continued to strengthen our relationships with outside organisations.  The National Literacy Trust have asked us to partner with them to provide a new programme called “All Aboard” which is funded by GWR and will include rail themed activities and a day trip to Penzance on the train. This programme is in addition to their monthly visits and book gifting. 

Healthy Cornwall still attend our sessions monthly. They have increased their involvement with us by offering free courses to the parents/carers in between our morning and afternoon sessions. 

Penlee Family Project and Wesley Toddler Group are starting up a new session on Wednesday morning. The session will be a Peep Session called Empowering Parents and we will be the first group in Cornwall to offer this type of session.  The Peep Learning Together Programme helps parents and carers make the most of the learning opportunities in everyday life, supporting their babies’ and young children’s learning through play. 



_Camborne Wesley Methodist Church (Registered Charity 1127807) Methodist Church Number 120105_ 

This year we have also formed a working relationship with Transformation CPR with their Community Health and Wellbeing Workers visiting our sessions to give advice and help to our families. 

We have been asked to be part of the Early Years Working Group, organised by the Cornwall Voluntary Sector Forum. The working group comprises of different organisations all working in the Early Years sector throughout Cornwall. The aim is to identify common goals and to build a path for working more closely together in the future. 

## **Sunday Groups** 

Both groups have a regular attendance figure of between 8-10 children and young people, with ages ranging from 0 – 18 years old. Recently, a resource called Energize has been purchased for use alongside Godly Play and other free online resources, and the few pieces taken from Energize have in recent sessions proved a big hit. 

## **Youth-Led Service** 

The Youth have helped to lead a service on the 9[th of] June 2024 which was very well received by the congregation and which the youth felt immensely proud of having a part in. It was agreed that they would have another date in which to do this in 2025, and they will have parts to play in the Nativity and Christingle services, too. 

## **Summer Clubs 2024** 

Two summer clubs were held during the summer holidays. The first, Wesley MasterChef, was aimed at 7-11s and included bible study alongside a cookery project. The club was attended by 9 children (which was about the right number for the upstairs kitchen), and 2 teenagers came as helpers. The second summer club, Wesley’s Got Talent, was aimed at 1117s and included biblical teaching alongside a talent show project. The attendance was slightly lower than hoped (6 teenagers), however a great time was had by all and the performances were something to be proud of. 

## **Community Events** 

A mixture of Big Picnic and Seasonal Party events were held. The most successful was the Easter Party with an attendance of 38 children alongside family members (The Light Party and Christmas Party had attendances below 10 on both occasions). The Big Picnics were less popular, with the most successful achieving around 20 people of various ages, but the least successful being attended by no-one. The strategy for Big Picnics is under review and other ideas are being trialled. 

## **Prayer Space** 

The Prayer Space hub at Camborne Science and International Academy is manned once a week by Hannah, either on Wednesdays or Thursdays. She regularly interacts with 15-20 unchurched young people as they come in and out during breaktime and lunchtime. She also has the opportunity to invite them to other events and clubs around the town. 

## **Weekly Offerings** 



_Camborne Wesley Methodist Church (Registered Charity 1127807) Methodist Church Number 120105_ 

There is currently a weekly offering for ages 7-11 in the works, and the appeal for volunteers will be going out at the end of October, building on the success (hopefully!) of the 2024 Light Party. 

## • **And all the other activities…….** 

## **Meals on Wheels** 

During the 12-month reporting period, we delivered 8479 lunches, focusing on a radius of about 3 miles from our building in Camborne. This was a drop of about 20% from the previous year and equated to an average of 33.98 meals per working day. This trend is deeply concerning, although it would appear to have plateaued. 

## **External lettings** 

Community use of our premises at £26064 was an increase of 10% over the previous year _(£23677 (2023))._ The increase in value is mainly due to a modest increase in hire charges. We would not anticipate that usage would increase much more as we are mindful of the needs of our own charity and its mission to bring ‘Christ to the Community of Camborne’. Reference is made within this report to the work of our own Toddlers Club, Children’s Section, Meals on Wheels and the Camborne Wesley Centre Catering Ltd. 

Links are forged with Cornwall Council and several care agencies as well as 3 local schools. Musical and fitness groups also meet weekly in the Wesley Centre. Dance seems a growing area, particularly among children and young adults. 

Our emphasis is on providing a Safe and Warm space where the community can meet without the consumption of alcohol or drugs, and without encountering gambling. 

## **CWCC Ltd** 

Camborne Wesley Centre Catering Ltd It has 3 main strands – to produce meals for the Meals on Wheels service run by the church, to run the in-house restaurant and to prepare food for ad hoc functions and buffets. Numbers using the service are increasing steadily but many are low ticket items, reflecting  the amount of social deprivation in our area. Overall the number of meals produced was down 11.53% due entirely to the drop in Meals on Wheels’ orders. 

## **Café Wesley and Community Space Project** 

The Community space is open from 10.00 am to 2 pm Monday through Friday and thanks are due to the Volunteers who enable this to happen.  Free hot drinks and biscuits are provided with the jigsaw table continuing to provide much interest. 

## **IT** 

We continue to use Zoom when appropriate but now stream Sunday services via You Tube We have continued to upgrade our equipment enabling us to provide better quality transmissions. 



_Camborne Wesley Methodist Church (Registered Charity 1127807) Methodist Church Number 120105_ 

In a similar way we are able to transmit Funerals and Weddings if the families concerned so wish. 

We are proud to have a completely new web-site built in-house by one of our church members; it is still a work in progress but has refreshed our outreach and hopefully our image. 

## **Wesley Centre** 

Use of the Wesley Centre by external groups is buoyant. We aim to keep our prices competitive and any surplus monies from such lettings are modest when servicing the rooms is taken into account. 

## **Organ Fund** 

The organ refurbishment was finished in October 2023; a celebration concert in March 2024 concluded our fundraising and the total cost of £7200 was covered. 

## Review of the year 

## **Income Trends** 

Church income is primarily drawn from the Sunday collections and Gift Aid Tax Credit. Additional income is derived from the lettings of rooms within in our premises to various community groups. The church also benefits from income from tenanted properties on its site. 

Income from our donors at £50816 was an increase of 7.68% on the previous year. _(£47192 (2023))_ We were able to meet our Church Assessment of £65484 in full. Our budgets indicate that we should be able to meet our assessment for the period 1/9/2024 to 31/8/2025 in full; it is an increase of 2% on the previous year. We have requested that the Circuit review the structure for the Assessment levied on churches.  To find £1300 every week is a huge drain on our income. GiftAId brought £8836 (net of transfers) into the General account and GASDS another £1471. 

## **Expenditure Trends** 

The major cost is in relation to the assessment paid to the Camborne Redruth Hayle Circuit. This amounted to 25.31% _(2023 25.31%) of_ our total cost. A significant amount of the Circuit assessment is used to pay the District Assessment, and stipends and related costs to Ministers. 

At £16175 ( _2023 £17814 )_ our property expenditure on the chapel and schoolroom continued our policy of keeping our buildings in very good order.  Maintenance contracts have been refreshed and are in place where-ever appropriate. 

## **B-Safe, B-Warm (Project to repair 47 windows of the schoolroom block)** 

Our latest quinquennial inspection identified that these windows were in a poor condition. We propose to repair them in 3 stages over the next 2 years.  Sufficient funds have been raised from Fundraising internally and from external grants to enable us to accept a tender for Phase 1 of £47408. 



_Camborne Wesley Methodist Church (Registered Charity 1127807) Methodist Church Number 120105_ 

## **Growing as a Family (Children’s Work project)** 

To enable our work with children (from 0-18) to continue and expand, external funding is being sought. 

**Investment properties –** Flat 2 Wesley Court and the Ground Floor Flat of 14 Chapel Street saw changes in tenants during the latter part of the year. In each case upgrades to the flats were carried out bringing the spend for the year to £17193 for the 7 tenancies ( _2023 £15584)._ A provision has also been made in the accounts for essential repairs to the roof of Wesley Court at a cost of £25001.  Work commenced in September 2024. 

## **Fund balances** 

As at 31 August 2024 the net current assets of the church were £183168 ( _2023 £191138)_ giving approximately 7 months’ cover for expenditure in an average year. _(2023 9 months)_ 

## **Plans for 2024/2025** 

Church financial plans for the coming year have been prepared on the basis of:- 

- **Wages** All employment costs have a budgeted increase of 10.0% 

- • **Expenses** Most lines have been increased by 7% over 2023/2024 actuals • **Givings** We continue to encourage regular giving 

- **Investment Properties** 

The next rent increases will be due in August 2025 

- **External** Small increases have been applied to Hire of Space by external **lettings** groups 

- Our biggest expense, the Assessment, is set at £66794 for the year 

- • **Assessment** 2024/2025 _(£65485 for 2023/2024)_ ; this is an increase of 2% on the previous year 

- **Energy** Contracts for gas and electricity have both been renewed, both have **supplies** increased by 130% 

- **Financial** The church family was challenged to increase its monthly giving to **Revue of** the church in Spring 2024. It has been encouraging to witness the **Givings** enthusiasm for raising funds for the Windows project.

## **Public Benefit** 

We confirm the trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

The governing document for the church is the Deed of Union (1932) and Methodist Church Act (1976) 



_Camborne Wesley Methodist Church (Registered Charity 1127807) Methodist Church Number 120105_ 

Detailed governance arrangements are outlined within the Constitutional Practice and Discipline of the Methodist Church by order of the annual conference (CPD) cpd-vol-10822_hwcb9ZA.pdf (methodist.org.uk) 

Day to day management of the church is undertaken by the Church Leaders’ team along with the Minister. 

Four sub committees of the Church Council, namely Resources, Community Links, Pastoral and Ministries, meet regularly and report back to each of the Church Council Meetings. 

People representing the various areas of our church work are appointed at the AGM of the church (General Church Meeting) to be Trustees and to sit on the Church Council.  The last elections were in May 2024, effective wef 1/9/2024.   Some officers of the church are elected by the Church Council itself and these people then become Trustees. The most recent such elections were held in May 2024 also. 

Senior lay staff attend Church Council meetings in an advisory non-voting capacity. 

## **Trustee Training** 

A range of guidance produced by the Methodist Connexion to support the effective running of the church and the role of Trustees, is given to the Church Trustees at various meetings and/or training sessions. We are now able to share in on-line training set up by Methodist Church House. 

## **Related Parties** 

The Church is part of the Camborne, Redruth & Hayle Circuit, which is part of the Cornwall District (wef 1/9/2024 South West Peninsula District) and is also accountable to the Methodist Conference. 

None of the trustees made a gift of land or substantial other asset to the Church during the year 

The internal organisation linked to this church is our trading arm - 

Camborne Wesley Centre Catering Ltd 

Registered Office: 

Camborne Wesley Methodist Church, Chapel St, Camborne TR14 8EG Registered in England No: 05358898 

Camborne Wesley Methodist Church is listed in the People with Significant Control Register of Camborne Wesley Centre Catering Ltd as a ‘Relevant Legal entity’(RLE) 

## **Going Concern** 

The Trustees have been mindful in recent years of the COVID -19 guidance produced by the Charities SORP committee; it is now time to examine the immediate and long-term future. 

Our largest item of expenditure is the Assessment levied on us by the Camborne Redruth Hayle Methodist Circuit. Under our Constitution the Methodist Church has the first call on our funds; if this assessment is maintained at current levels, we should have sufficient Unrestricted and also Designated (Unrestricted) Reserves which can be used to support our work over the 12 months to August 2025.  Our Assessment is now paid on the first of each month; this helps our cash flow. 



_Camborne Wesley Methodist Church (Registered Charity 1127807) Methodist Church Number 120105_ 

The trustees are finding long-term financial planning challenging.  The B-Safe, B-Warm Windows project budgeted cost is now £181,000 and analysis shows that we should be able to complete the project within 3 years from its inception.  Alongside this work is commencing on repairs to the investment properties, as identified in the most recent quinquennial report. 

The value of our investments now stands at £90725 following the encashment of the Model Trust Bequests (£24074). This was necessary to aid our cashflow. The net gain on revaluation for the year was £7429. 

## **Consolidation** 

Camborne Wesley Methodist Church and Camborne Wesley Centre Catering Ltd have prepared separate sets of accounts as the joint turnover does not exceed £1 million after consolidation adjustments (Charities SORP (FRS102) Appendix 3 A.11 refers) 

## **Risk Management** 

The trustees are mindful that it is not immune from risk. 

- Guidance is sought from the Government publications and the Methodist Church 

- Our trading company is struggling to trade profitably; the overheads are high in comparison to the food served 

- The contract for gas supply has been renegotiated wef 1/5/2024 and will run for 3 years to 30/4/2027; the new electricity contract runs wef 1/1/2025; both contracts show increase of 130% over the previous terms. 

- We have appointed an agent to help us find grants for Children’s Work and also Repairs to our Windows in the part of the building known as the schoolroom. There has been a reasonable success with regard to the Windows (B-Safe, B-Warm) project and budgets indicate that we should be able to complete this project within 2.5 years. The work has been divided into 3 phases and a tender have been accepted for the first phase of 14 windows. (The whole project involves 47 windows) 

- Funding for the Children’s Work is difficult to find, particularly the faith-based work. This is a grave concern for us. 

- Of current concern is the potential effect on our payroll costs of our new government’s intended employment changes 

- Our tenanted properties need work on them to make them fitting homes for our tenants.  A recent quinquennial has indicated a cost of £150,000.  The largest part of this – improvements to the roof of Wesley Court – is commencing in September 2024. 

- Our future will be dependent on future generations being willing to take on leadership and governance roles. There are positive signs that this is happening. 

## **Safeguarding** 

Every person has a value and dignity which comes directly from the creation of male and female in God’s own image and likeness.  Christians see this potential as fulfilled by God’s recreation of us in Christ.  Among other things this implies a duty to value all people as bearing the image of God and therefore to protect them from harm. 

Methodist Connexional practice outlines commitment to the following principles: 



_Camborne Wesley Methodist Church (Registered Charity 1127807) Methodist Church Number 120105_ 

- The care and nurture of, and respectful pastoral ministry with all children, young people and adults 

- The safeguarding and protection of all children, young people and adults when they are vulnerable 

- The establishing of safe, caring communities which provide a loving environment where there is informed vigilance as to the dangers of abuse. 

- We will carefully select and train all those with any responsibility within the Church, in line with Safer Recruitment principles, including the use of criminal records, disclosures and registration with the relevant vetting and barring schemes. 

- We will respond without delay to every complaint made which suggests that an adult, child or young person may have been harmed, cooperating with the police and local authority in any investigation. 

- We will seek to work with anyone who has suffered abuse, developing with them an appropriate ministry of informed pastoral care. 

- We will seek to challenge any abuse of power, especially by anyone in a position of trust. 

- We will seek to offer pastoral care and support, including supervision and referral to the proper authorities, to any member of our church community known to have offended against a child, young person or vulnerable adult. 

- In all these principles we will follow legislation, guidance and recognised good practice. 

Camborne Wesley Methodist Church commits itself to ensuring the implementation of Connexional Safeguarding Policy, Government legislation, guidance and safe practice in the church. It also commits itself to the provision of support, advice and training for lay and ordained people that will ensure people are clear and confident about their roles and responsibilities in safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and adults who may be vulnerable. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The Reserves Policy for the Church is to hold a minimum sum equivalent to three months’ average expenditure. This should be sufficient to meet any unforeseen item of major expenditure on the church building and/or to be able to continue, in the short term, funding planned activities in the event of any inability to raise the full expenses including the assessment payable to the Circuit. 

Whilst this is the policy, at the present time we do not have sufficient reserves to meet the requirements of this policy. Both our Circuit (Camborne Redruth Hayle) and our Methodist Connexion state that we should carry 6 months’ reserves.  At the present time we are unable to meet this requirement. 

The main cause for the position in which we find ourselves is that between 2020 and 2022 (the COVID years) we used our Reserves to keep our church alive. 

ouncil Meetings but are not Trustees as they are employees of the church.

## **Notes to the Accounts** 

## 1 **Basis of Accounting** 

The Charity’s annual report and accounts for the year ended 31 August 2024 have been prepared in accordance with _Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP)_ applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (2019) – (Charities SORP (FRS 102) (2019) 

## **2 Funds** 

The funds held constitute: Unrestricted Funds held for any purpose of the Church, but which will be for General Purposes or Designated Purposes;  Restricted funds which are held for a narrower purpose. There are also Endowment Funds as listed at Note 13. Details of each material fund are disclosed in Note 18.  Any fund may be represented by more than just cash. 

## **3 Accounting Policies** 

## **Basis** 

These accounts have been prepared on the basis of historical cost except that investments are shown at their market value at the end of the year. The accruals basis has been used and the trustees present accounts that show a true and fair view of the Church’s financial position and activities. 

## **Income** 

Income is included in the Statement of Financial Activity (SOFA) when the church becomes entitled to the resources, and the trustees are reasonably certain they will receive the resources, and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability 

## **Expenditure** 

This is recognised when a liability is incurred, or a constructive obligation arises, that results in the payment being unavoidable. Liabilities are recognised as soon as an outflow of economic benefit is considered more likely than not under the legal or constructive obligation committing the Church to pay out the resources. 



_Camborne Wesley Methodist Church (Registered Charity 1127807) Methodist Church Number 120105_ 

## **Grants** 

Grants made by the Church from its own funds are recognised in full at the time of agreement or when the Church accepts that there is a legal or operational obligation to make the payment. When the grant is recurrent over more than one year the balance payable in future years is treated as a provision for future commitments in the Balance Sheet against the appropriate fund, the provision being released in future years as instalments are paid in accordance with the originally agreed terms. 

## **VAT** 

Since the church is not VAT registered, all input VAT is charged with the expenses to which it refers. 

## **Tangible fixed assets for use by the Church** 

These are capitalized if they can be used for more than one year, and individually cost at least £500.
