It was founded in 1905 and is a member church of the Old Baptist Union and is affiliated to the Southern Counties Baptist Association which sits within The Baptist Union of Great Britain. The principal purpose of the Church is the advancement of the Christian faith according to the principles of the Baptist denomination. To achieve this purpose we aim to provide the following services:- - Christian activities to all age groups, to include people with disabilities and to other charities and voluntary bodies. - We endeavour to make grants to individuals and other organisations, provide buildings, facilities and open space and to provide services, advocacy, advice and information. ## **Ensuring our activities deliver our aims** We have complied with the duty in section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Commission when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. Emmanuel Baptist Church was founded in 1905 and moved to 1 Howard Road, Swanage in 1921. In 2013 it relocated to its new church building in Victoria Avenue. It is a member church of the Old Baptist Union, a small group of wholly evangelical Baptist churches, established in 1880. The Church is also affiliated to The Southern Counties Baptist Association through which it is able to enjoy the fellowship and share the work of Baptists in the immediate locality. It is the policy of the church to co-operate wherever possible with other Christians in Swanage and across the Isle of Purbeck in advancing Christ's Kingdom in the town and area. Every church member is encouraged to read carefully the churches doctrinal basis and constitution which are set out in detail in the Articles of Faith and Constitution. These were originally drawn up and agreed in 1935, revised by the Church Membership and agreed by the Old Baptist Union in August 2014. Copies are available on request from either the Minister or the Church Administrator. Included with this statement are the guidelines for the administration of the local church. ## **Restrictions on activities** Of course, since March 2020 and since then in various forms, the church underwent ‘lockdown’ under Government advice due to the Coronavirus pandemic. This seriously curtailed our normal and regular activities, including corporate worship gatherings and other organised events and groups. However, even though the church buildings closed, the church continued to function and adapted to this situation and now ‘stream’ our Sunday and a mid-week worship services on the internet, having updated our equipment. This will now become a regular feature of the church’s on going ministry ‘online’ to reach a wider community. We have also stayed connected with our congregation and members with telephone calls, zoom meetings and through social media outlets. The small group network within the church, Life Groups, have provided essential care and aspects of community otherwise impossible to meet. As restrictions begin to lift, congregation are being invited back to the building in person, under Government guidelines. 2 ## **Our objectives** The main objectives for the year were: - a) To create and/or establish a wide range of events and activities that will serve the needs of the church and wider community. - b) To release appropriately gifted people into full-time and part-time staff roles, to help develop and implement the trust's plans. - c) To ensure full use of the building facilities and complete key works for the benefit of both the Church and the wider community. - d) Provide ongoing development and training as appropriate for staff and volunteers. ## **Strategies for achieving our objectives** - a) To work with the wider Church community through "Swanage Churches Together", to meet the needs of the wider community of Swanage and Purbeck avoiding duplication. - b) To continue to equip and develop the Ministry Teams that were set up in February 2016. Ministry Teams were set up to develop and deliver a subset of the Church's responsibilities (Children, Youth, Seniors, Administration, Building Maintenance etc.). - c) To provide a range of attractive age-specific programmes, to run alongside the Sunday morning service - d) To fully support and engage with the joint churches initiative in Swanage ‘The Wave Youth and Children’s Ministry’ via "Wave Youth" and "Wave Kids". - e) To continue resourcing the "Wave Youth " initiative in particular with our full-time Youth Minister, taking ownership for developing and delivering a Swanage-wide programme for young people aged 11-18 years along with other ‘Wave’ team members and Trustees. - f) To provide office and administrative support to ‘Wave Kids’ and the Children’s Ministry Leader. ## **Significant activities contributing to the achievements of these objectives** - a) Play a leading role within "Swanage Churches Together", helping set the vision and plans and organising and hosting events. - b) Regular training and support for Ministry Team Leaders, equipping them to build their teams and deliver their plans. - c) Engaging with church members and regular attendees to develop a long-term vision for the work of the church. - d) An ongoing training and support programme is in place for Life Group Leaders. - e) Formal appraisal for staff members on a regular 1-2-1 meeting with their line manager. - f) A range of regular events for the seniors of Swanage to meet together, share a meal and engage in various activities. - g) The Church Centre hosts a range of regular non-church, public events including Keep Fit and Pilates classes, Better Balance, Memory Cafe run by the Alzheimer's Society, Community Choir, Knitting Group and Art and Crafts groups. - h) The Church Centre hosts regular events for children and young people across Swanage, in association with ‘The Wave’, as well as our own Sunday groups. There is "Remix", where young people can learn to play musical instruments and perform, sing in a band and operate PA equipment and "Rooted" which is a young person's Bible based discussion group. We also host ‘Energise’ for Wave Kids, providing a place for ‘family time’ and breakfast on Saturday mornings, alongside a short bible-based talk. - i) Continuing to develop two gardens, a safe garden for younger children and parents and a quiet garden for everyone to enjoy. 3 ## **Measures used to assess the achievement of objectives** The Church reviews its aims, objectives and activities on a regular basis, through the following ways:- - Monthly Leadership/Trustee meetings - Quarterly congregational meetings. The way the Church normally operates is clearly set out in our Articles of Faith and Church Constitution. ## **Achievements and performance** During the year the Church has made significant progress including: - a) The placement of a student for 2019-21 from Moorlands Bible College as part of their Applied Theology degree training course, to lead and facilitate a variety of activities and pioneer new areas of church ministry. - b) Continued demand for and use of the building by internal and appropriate external groups has continued to grow. An example is CAMEO – a fortnightly community lunch providing a 2 course meal for app. 60 people. - c) Swanage Area Forum. - d) A full programme for youth is in place, attendance levels are good and growing in line with expectation. - e) Large scale public events have been staged including: - Herston Family Funday – August 2019 - a community event in partnership with other local organisations based in the neighbourhood of the church buildings, to help build relationships across the age groups and raise the church profile in the community. This would have been repeated in July 2020 except for Covid-19. - Christmas Tree Festival, a three-day event engaging with 45 plus local Swanage organisations (who each sponsored and decorated a tree) and attracting nearly 2,000 visitors. ## **Plans for future periods** ## **General** (Covid-19 restrictions permitting): - To seek a new Minister, as our current minister will be retiring as from July 2021, in order to maintain and support the Church’s ongoing vision and ministry. - Provide a greater focus on the communities living in the immediate geographical area of the church. - To continue to provide a ministry and place of renewal and encouragement for those who visit the town whilst on holiday. - To use Ministry Teams as the vehicle for developing the trust's objectives. - To continually train, develop and equip new and existing Ministries and Leaders and Ministry Team Members. - To continue to improve the weekday coffee shop experience, with special emphasis on younger mums and families, utilising our ‘Seaside Room’, gardens and soft-play areas. - To continue creating and establishing a wide range of events and activities that will serve the needs of the Church and wider community. - To maintain and develop the Church Centre building and facilities to maximise its appropriate use and enable the trust's plans to be delivered. 4 ## **Long term goals** To serve and meet the needs of the church and the wider community to effect significant change across Swanage and Purbeck. To secure and release necessary resources to achieve the trust's plans. To increase awareness, educate and encourage relevant action to be taken, to care for our world and help combat climate change and sustainability of our planet. We see this as an integral part of caring for God’s creation. ## **Sustainability** The Church has maintained its income from offerings, despite the Covid-19 restrictions, which is particularly encouraging when many in the congregation are on fixed incomes and pensions. In addition the Church has sold a Manse and purchased a new one this last year, in order to pay-off a final outstanding debt in relation to the funding of the new church buildings. We are now debt free in this regard. ## **Reserves policy** By nature the Church relies totally on the generosity of its members to keep the charity financially sound. As such, we therefore have no specific reserves policy. The trustees do however strive to maintain a month end bank balance equal to at least two month's cost of salaries. ## **Structure Governance and Management** The charity is run on the dependency of its Articles of Faith and Church Constitution. ## **Organisational structure** The charity is run by a Leadership Team and some volunteers. The full Leadership Team meet monthly to discuss and determine ongoing matters and policy. There is a quarterly meeting whereby all members of the Church are invited to attend to discuss and approve matters and policies and an Annual General Meeting. There are nine trustees on the Leadership team as from September 2020, including the minister who is in overall charge. There are currently four Land and Property trustees who are appointed and agreed by the Church who are the official custodians of the land and property held for the purposes of the church, whose decisions are subject to the approval and agreement of the Leadership Team and subsequently the church (if necessary).The day to day administration of the Church is overseen by the Minister, Treasurer, Church Administrator and Leadership Team. Finally, there are teams of volunteer helpers who contribute to the pastoral and administrative work of the Church. ## **Recruitment and appointment of trustees** The trustees and officers named on the legal and administrative information page have served throughout the year except where otherwise stated. 5 ## **Appointment of Minister(s)** A minister shall be appointed by an 80% majority vote at a Church Meeting but only after having agreed the Articles of Faith and Constitution of the Church and having gained the unanimous approval of the Leadership Team. The quorum for such a Church Meeting shall be 60% of the membership, not including those hospitalized, housebound and living or working away at the time. During the appointment process a Moderator (a Baptist minister who knows the Church and has its confidence) may be invited to take the chair at interviews and Church meetings. ## **Appointment of officers** Leadership members are elected by the church members in church meetings. Nominations for the leadership should be submitted to the minister/leadership team for approval and then placed before the church meeting. A 60% majority of the voting members shall ensure their election, after which they will be presented for ordination. The quorum needed to make such appointments to the leadership shall be 30% of the membership, which will not include members who are living or working away at the time of the meeting. All members, before casting their votes are asked to seek earnestly the mind of Christ in prayer. The number of officers may vary according to need but should not normally exceed 10% of the membership. Leaders will serve for a term of three years, after which they may stand for re-election. At the end of a second three year term of office they cannot be re-elected until a period of one year has elapsed. ## **Other appointments** All other appointments shall be determined annually by the decision of the Church Meeting. ## **Risk management** The trustees have a risk management strategy which comprises: - An annual review of the risks the charity may face; - The establishment of systems and procedures and policies to mitigate those risks identified in the plan; - The implementation of procedures designed to minimise any potential impact on the charity should those risks materialise, and; - The financial performance of the charity is regularly reviewed by a financial team and the trustees at its monthly meetings. 6 Emmanuel Baptist Church Statement of Trustees, Responsibilities The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees, report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kin8dom Accountin8 Standards Iunited Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations.

The World Focus Fund is a fund to help promote the beliefs of the Church, both individually and collectively into other communities. Eva Project Fund is a fund which was dedicated to the redevelopment of the Church's property in Victoria Avenue. Up until 2019, the fund was being reduced annually by the depreciation charge on the building, this year, that policy has changed and the value will remain as a restricted fund. The Agape fund is distributed at the Church's discretion for people in need and deserving causes.

The scheme is a separate legal entity which is administered by the Pension Trustee - Baptist Pension Trust Limited. The Minister(s) are eligible to join the scheme, which is funded and not contracted out of the state scheme. From January 2012, pension provision is being made through the Defined Contribution Plan within the scheme. From January 2012 Ministers pay 8% of their Pensionable Income and the employer 6% of members' Pensionable Income plus an additional 4% to cover Death in Service Benefits, administration costs and an associated insurance policy which provides income protection for scheme members in the event that they are unable to work due to long term incapacity. The scheme started in 1925 and was formerly known as the Baptist Ministers' Pension Fund but was closed to future accrual of defined benefits on 31 December 2011. The main benefits provided by the service prior to 1 January 2012 are provided through the Defined Benefit Plan, being a pension of one eightieth of Final Minimum Pensionable Income for each year of Pensionable Service, together with an additional pension in respect of premiums paid on Pensionable Income in excess of Minimum Pensionable Income. A formal valuation was performed at 31 December 2016 by a professional qualified Actuary using the Projected Unit Method. The market value of the Defined Benefit Plan assets at the valuation date was £219,000,000. The valuation of the Defined Benefit Plan revealed a deficit of assets compared with the value of liabilities of £93,000,000 (equivalent to a past service funding level of 70%). As a result of the valuation, in addition to the contributions to the Defined Contribution Plan set out above, it has been agreed to increase the standard rate of deficiency contributions from churches and other employers involved in the Defined Benefit Plan from 11% of Pensionable Income/Minimum Pensionable Income to be based on a 12% rate from 1 January 2016. The contributions will be based on each church's or other employer's position at March 2015. Some churches and other employers that were only involved in the Defined Benefit Plan for a short period will pay less than 12%. The Recovery Plan envisages deficiency contributions continuing until December 2028. A new "Family Solution" has been agreed that seeks to substantially reduce the deficit in the Baptist Pension Scheme. The Family Solution follows lengthy and detailed negotiations between the Pension Trustee and the BPS Employers Group (acting on behalf of the Baptist Union of Great Britain and the other scheme employers). As part of the Family Solution, Baptist Union of Great Britain has agreed to make total additional contributions of £33,500,000 on behalf of the Baptist family in order to reduce the current deficit. At least £30,000,000 will be paid in 2018, with the remainder by 2023. As there are a large number of contributing employers to the fund, the Church is unable to identify its share of the underlying assets and liabilities of the scheme. Accordingly, due to the nature of the scheme, the profit and loss charge for the period represents the employer contributions payable. The total pension cost for the church was £8,121 (2018 - £8,121). Pension contributions to the Ministers' Fund were payable in respect of the minister Mr Mark Hatto. The next actuarial valuation of the Defined Benefit Plan within the Scheme was due to take place not later than as at 31 December 2019. The church also operates a workplace pension Defined Contribution Plan through The People's Pension. ## **20. Related charities** The Custodian Trustee of the Church is the Old Baptist Union which is charity number 233642. The Church is also a member of The Baptist Union of Great Britain and affiliated to The Southern Counties Baptist Association. A sum of £500,000 realised from the sale of property at 1 Howard Road, Swanage, which was owned by the Old Baptist Union, has been utilised to partly fund the construction of the new church building and as a result the Old Baptist Union has a 20% share of the ownership of the new building. There were no transactions between the Church and its related charities during the year.
