A¢hievemenl$ and performance
Rgviow of Iho Past Year
As for everyone, 2020 was an unprecedented year due to the pandemic.
Al the beginning of the year, we conb'nued wilh our oulreach activilies, induding the successful Life Café,
various groups for young people both within the church and from the wder local Community, groups run within
local primary and secondary schools. the HubBub group for older people etc. We also held weekly Sunday
services. including children's work.
However, in March lockdown began an¢J these groups had to stop meeting in person.
stsrting immediately, our services moved online and Ihanks lo the talents of various members these have
been very well re￿ived, with growing numbers tuning in as the year went on. and more members becoming
involved both onscreen and behind ihe scenes. These online services {via YouTube and Fa￿boOkI have
been a successful forTn of outreach, and we have seen an increase in church membership, and an increase in
interest from those seeking to know more about our faith.
Also immediately, all staff began working from home. They kept in regular online contact. allowing them to
support each other and maintsin the day-to-day running of the church. The member of staff appointed in the
role of Creative Communications in 2019 proved invaluable in 2020, creating and editing imaginative and
accessible online content, often involving church members, which greatly furthered the work of outreach even
during lockdown, as well as enabling us to maintain our sense of church family.
Life Groups (smaller groups within the church who meet together for Bible study and mutual support and
prayer) also moved online and increased in membership. including an in¢￿3$e in interest from those not
previously part of Lrfe Groups and in some cases not previously part of our church. This resulted in the
creation of a new Life Group, to accommodate the inwse in numbers.
Early into lockdown we established prayer and practical support via email and phone, enabling the church to
pray for specific needs and lo offer a shopping Servi￿ for those shielding elc. Youth work moved online, with
youlh groups run via zoom for those willing and able to attend. These were run by the youth worf( team, and
offered support and contact to young people.
Sunday moming children's work moved to Z￿)M. eventually running most weeks immediately before the
Sunday morning services. These were run by our children's work team, and included sending out craft packs
lo families who ￿gIStered for them, so that the children could do crafts 'together' and maintsin important
connections with the church family.
The successful annual Holiday Club. although unable to run in person. was run online. This included a week
of livestreamed videos, and ¢raft packs sent to each Child registered. and was very popular. An Alpha Course
was also run online via Zoom, allowing various people to ask questions atx)ul our faith and seek inforniation
and support from our church family.
During the temporary easing of reslrictions in the summer, a covid-safe OUtd￿r setV1￿ was run successfully,
with many households able to attend.
In September a church member attending Bristol Baptist College started a placement wth u5 a5 a minister-in-
training, participating in, and leading various online services such as prayer wotl(shops. reflective servi￿8 etc
Over Christmas, the Life Café opened an outdoor 'Winter Hut,. This was extremely popular with both church
members and the wider ¢ommuntty, estsblishing and renewing relationships and support that may have
faltered during lockdown. The church was also able to donate a Christmas tree to the village, as we do each
year. This year, as we were unable lo hold a carol setvice, 6 people you￿, the village Iwilh a Ireell, singing
carols outside al an appropriate distance from houses. This was enthusiastically welcomed by the community.
Christmas seNices were all online, and included a Christmas choir. with each singer and musician rewrded
individually and then edited together into a choir. This was extremely well-received as a way of conveying the
Christian message of Christmas, locally. nationally and even inlemalionally.

trustees continue to adopt the going LX)ncem basis of aLxx)unting in preparing the financial statements.

objectives unless the funds have been designated for other puiposes.

1.5 Expenditure
Grants
Grants and donations are accounted for when paid or awarded, rf the award creates a binding obligation.
Other Charitable Expenditure
Expenditu￿ that directly relates lo a cost Category is charged solely lo that category. However. where
expenditure relates to at least two such categories, the (x)st is apwrtioned as ne￿Ssary. Expenditure is
generally recognised when incurred and is accounted for gross.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequenuy measured at cost or valuation, net of
depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write irff the (x)st or valuation of assels less their residual values over
their useful lives on the following bases-
Freehold land and buildings
Fixtures and fittings
1% straight line (Improvements 5%)
20% straight line
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the dIffe￿nce between the sale
proceeds and the carying value of the asset. and is recognised in net incomellexpenditurel for the year.
The deacons believe the historic cost of the freehold propety to be £250,000 as incurred between 1983
and 1985. This specifically excludes the historic cost of the land which was gifted in the 1860's and is
rtainly immaterial to these a(xounls.
The original cost of fixtures and equipment at 31 December 1999 was not known. 11 was not cost effective
lo value all of the related assets. Therefore, the cost at thal date has been tsken at its insurance value as
per the September 1999 declaration as allowed by the Charities SORP. Fixtures and equipment
purchased since that date have been rapitalised al cost and subjected to depreryation as above.
1.7 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the ChU￿h reviews Ihe Carrying amounls of its tsngible assets to determine
whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication
exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment
loss lif anyl.
1.8 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand. deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid
investments with original maturities of three months or less. and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are
shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
