Summary ofthe main achievements ofthe charity during the year	The achievements and the performance ofthe Church in 2022I2023 continued to reflect the return to normality for worship and use ofthe building following the pandemic.
	There has been no significant increase in the number of hirers or users	of
	the building as we remain restricted to a degree by Ambassadors covering
	to open and close the building. Although this is under review to determine
	ifwe can give keys and access codes to hirers.
	There remains a good attendance and involvement on a Sunday for
	morning worship and for Praise 8 Testimony services, which happen every
	month
	The Olive Branch cafe continues to successfully provide weekly lunches
	and support a number ofevents throughout the year.
	We hold regular outreach activities covering mid-week worship / school
	relationship outreach Iconcerts Ipantomimes and lcoffee mornings. We
	also hold services in the residential homes —Green Park and Meadow
	View —which seem to be well received by the residents and their families.
	Also children's worship in the form of LiNe Angels pre-school worship	and
	Tree House Kids on a Sunday.
	There also remains an eclectic mix ofusers covering uniformed
	organisations, painting groups, gardening groups, Drop-In sessions for	tea
