Section D Achievements and performance Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year We have continued to provide pastoral, spiritual and study support for people able to meet on site and through our online platforms. Both Sunday morning services are streamed with several hundred people viewing each week from their homes in Truro and beyond through Cornwall and other parts of the UK and even the world. We have continued to operate Sambells, our community café. As is common in many fields, we have felt the reality of declining volunteer base which has put pressure on the continuing provision of this important community service. Our premises are used extensively by community groups and other organisations including various choirs, counselling groups, medical screening, conferences and seminars. An ongoing programme of maintenance to the Church's listed property to maintain its "wind and water-tight" condition, and to enhance the internal facilities and decor Providing a distribution point for surplus supermarket foodstuffs, given away free to local people Providing operational support to Truro Street Pastors Expansion of ventures for young people led by the Truro Circuit Youth Enabler Our village chapel continues to provide resources for the local community including a very effective toddler group and a community food larder We have continued to develop work with individuals and groups which encourages us to look beyond our church family to partner with the city-centre community around us, The Church has reconfirmed its commitment to being an inclusive church and to work for a fully inclusive society. We have demonstrated this through our affiliation with the Inclusive Church Network, reregistering to allow marriages of opposite sex couple and same -sex couples to take place on the promise and by continuing an eco-church agenda. We continued to plan for a major refurbishment of our premises. The project is moving forward as the 'Truro Community Hub., This project will help to address the lack of community facilities within the city. Its potential value was recognised by leaders in the community, and we were invited to apply for a grant from the Truro Town Deal Fund which is part of the government Town Deal Fund. This resulted in a grant of £952,000 to assist with our development together with match funding of £500,000 from Cornwall Council being confirmed. This, together with grants from some grant funding bodies will enable the church to proceed with the first phase of the project commencing during the 2024125 financial year with completion before the end of 2025126. Fund raisin towards the second hase will continue. Section E Financial review In order to provide the prospect of reasonable financial security to the Church and the Circuit going forward the Church Council has agreed to hold in reserve the equivalent of 6 months unrestricted expenditure (this being £124,000 in the most recent year). In addition, in accordance with RICS guidelines, we seek to build up a reserve equivalent to 2.50/0 of the capital value of the buildings (this being £27,500 in the most recent year). The Reserves funds desi nated b this olic amount to £151,500. Total unrestricted Brief statement of the charity's policy on reserves TAR March 2012

reserves of £394,000 currently exceed this level. This excess was derived from reduced expenditure on the premises which will be substantially upgraded as part of the Truro Community Hub project.
