**Charity Commission – Trustees’ Annual Report for the period** "September 2020- August 2021" 

_Section C – Objectives and activities: Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)._ 

Hinde Street Methodist Church is a city centre church based in the heart of Marylebone, London, which seeks to be welcoming and hospitable to everyone. We have an open ethos and a tradition of questioning debate, primarily, although not exclusively, from a liberal perspective. We are a diverse and multi-racial community. 

The age profile is distinctive with a small number of children of school age but with a larger than average group of young adults. The remainder of the congregation are over the age of 40 and there is a largish group of retirees. A considerable number of our members are professionals with a range of intellectual and academic backgrounds. They offer a wide range of gifts and skills to the community through service in different areas.  At the same time, we are an inclusive church which welcomes people regardless of ability, gender, sexual preference or age, and seeks to create a warm, caring and nurturing community for all.  In April 2015 the Church Council voted to sign up for the ‘Inclusive Church’ movement, and we continue to work towards inclusivity in all that we do, particularly with regards the LGBT community. We have recently approved a motion to allow the church to conduct same-sex marriages, after the national Methodist Church conference gave churches this option. 

Our ministers include Rev Peter Cornick and Deacon Belinda Letby. 

The church has three Sunday services, each with its own distinct congregation, with limited cross-over between them. 

- The 9:30am service (formerly at 10:00) is short and uses an adapted version of the 1936 Methodist Communion Service. Attendance is between 6 and 10 and this service happens twice a month. 

- The 11:00 am service is every week and is consciously traditional Methodist worship. A high value is placed on preaching, liturgy (the Methodist Worship Book is used frequently but not exclusively, and communion is held twice a month) and hymn singing. The congregation is also open to less traditional music and innovative liturgical ideas. Average attendance varies between 40 to 70 adults and a small Junior Church meets at the same time. The Church has a strong musical tradition and there is a director of music who is responsible for the occasional choir rehearsal and presentation. The church possesses a fine organ and Steinway grand piano. Since Covid, the 11am service has also operated online, and continues to offer ‘hybrid worship’ in person and on Zoom, and was Zoom only from January to May 2021 

- The 6.30 pm service, which is fortnightly, has an attendance of around 10 people, and often takes a more creative, interactive and meditative approach, using worship material from the Iona Community and Taizé, and liturgies and prayers written by the church ministers and worship leaders. Since Covid it has taken place on Zoom, and it remains an online-only service. 



Hinde Street Methodist Church has long-established and well-run classes (small groups of members and non-members), following the Wesleyan tradition, which meet regularly. We have 7 classes, with five classes meeting monthly, one weekly and one (the class for young people) meets only in the university holidays. 

Alongside these, there are the following activities: 

- a weekly meditation led by the ministers and open to members, anonymous groups, local residents and workers (attendance is on average between 10 and 15) 

- social activities 

- monthly church lunches and an annual family picnic (to resume when Covid allows) 

The church committees, many of which are chaired by lay members of the church, oversee the various activities including property and financial issues. 

Hinde Street Methodist Church has two established residential communities living in flats adjacent to the main church building; one has five members, and one has six members of young adults. These communities share a Christian ethos and make a commitment to contribute to the life of the church and circuit – including volunteering in our social projects, and an agreed amount of time covering reception duties when our caretaker is on leave. 

The premises (church, church hall and adjacent rooms) are intensively used by various groups during the week. 

- There are almost 35 “12 step” groups - self-help groups for people with addiction issues who have used these premises for many years. Up to 100 people per day use the premises in this way. 

- There are two weekly open drop-ins in the main church hall on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 4.30 to 8.00 pm, which offer food and support to approximately 20-40 people in the neighbourhood, many of whom are experiencing homelessness. 

- Church members are encouraged to participate in the wider activities of the West London Mission Circuit, including a significant programme of professional Housing and Community Services located in several areas of London. 

- During the winter months we have offered a meal and a bed for the night on Monday evenings from December to March to fifteen homeless people, as part of the Westminster Winter Night Shelter programme. This has not happened since March 2020, and at present Westminster City Council is pursuing other ways to help homeless people during the winter months 

Hinde Street Methodist Church is committed to offering a sense of belonging to young people studying, living and working in London. The church also has a Community Worker whose work concentrates on helping 18-30 year-olds become part of the church family by offering them pastoral care, open spaces for asking questions about faith, creative forms of worship, organising social events and developing opportunities for involvement in volunteering. 

We have a young adult fellowship called ‘ **Soul Food** ’ where students and recent graduates meet once a month over a meal, for friendship and exploring issues of faith. This has moved online, but may return to being an  in-person meeting. 



We have a covenant with **St Marylebone Parish Church** . Three times a year we organise a pulpit swap, including during the Octave of Prayer for Christian Unity, and on Aldersgate Sunday. 

_Section D - Achievements and performance: summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year._ 

During 2021, the church began to put into action its ‘growth plan’ and also reopened in line with changing government guidelines (this meant the building had periods where it was open and we offered ‘hybrid’ worship following health regulations, and other periods where all worship was online). Currently we have established a pattern with 1 in-person Sunday service, 1 ‘hybrid’ Sunday service (our largest), and 1 online service, and are gradually reintroducing elements such as in-person refreshments. 

The growth plan has several arms to deal with the dwindling funds and membership, which were significantly exacerbated by the pandemic and the resulting loss of income from lettings in the building. The church was awarded a grant by the Methodist London District, some of which it has spent on an online rebrand (in progress) and refresh of the website to capture online traffic. We have recently appointed a Digital and Communications Officer to capitalise on our online presence, including Zoom services. We ran a stewardship campaign in the autumn of 2021 to attempt to increase congregational giving and involvement in the life of the church. 

The church has recovered some income from lettings and many groups have returned. Throughout the various closures and openings of the building, the church has remained tight-knit and welcoming to new members, and has offered pastoral support through our class (small group) network and keeping in touch with more vulnerable congregants. We also managed to increase our ‘Wednesday club’ (serving food and hot drinks to homeless people and their friends) from one day to two days a week, addressing a particular need in Marylebone.
