inclusive and welcoming.
so that by some means, all may have the opportunity to encounter the living God.
We will seek to do this by..
offering effective pastoral care to those who would welcome the support we give, whether
they be people of faith or not.
looking for individual opportunities to serve others within the communities in which we live.
sharing the love of God with others and being a good neighbour.
re￿Iving all whom we encounter without judgement, whilst sharing who we are and whose
we are.
Our missional priorities are to..
work towards the best pasloral care that we can offer.
share the gospel message wherever we are.
3. develop our understanding of justice, dignity and solidarity in line with the nationwide
programme of the Methodist Church in Britain.
manage our buildings away from closure, towards new missional projects.
We will endeavour to do all this whilst continuing to=
support varied and enriching worship in each of the Churches in the Circuit.

Achievements and Perfomiance
The Central Norfolk Methodist Circuit has suc￿SsfUllY continued its activities for another year. We
have seen the closure of two of our smaller chapels (Great Ellingham and Sporle) but eighteen
churches continue with regular acts of worship, other activities and service in their respective
communities.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
continued
The Circuit facilitates the mission and ministry of its churches - both large and small with the
organisalional support of a dedicated Administrator. the work of three members of staff and the
energy and time given by dozens of volunteers across a wide geographical area. The Staff Team
changed in September 2024 with the retirements of the Revd Jacqui Horton and Deacon Jen
Woodfin and the appointment of a new Superintendent Minister, the Revd Derek Grimshaw.
The arrival of a new Superintendent Minister prompted a review of staffing and consideration as to
how care for the whole Circuit and its members might be reslruclured. The Revd. Anne
Richardson left the Circuit in August 2024 and, a month later, we welcomed the Revd. Neil Vels
and his family from South Africa. There will be a reduction in the number of full-time clergy within
the Circuit from September 2026 and so plans are already in hand to employ additional lay staff to
meet future need.
The Circuit has again facilitated training in order to equip people to be informed and cofflpetent in
EDI (equality. diversity and inclusion), Safeguarding and neuro-diversity. This has enhanced good
governance and helped to de-mystify regulatory compliance.
The Circuit currently has oversight of four redundant chapels. The Trustees have established a
Mission Development Property Group that has been looking at how churches which have closed
can serve the local community. In Great Ellingham the Group are looking into developing the
chapel into a pre-school for the local community, whilst the chapel in Thursford is hoped to be
developed into a dwelling for use by a local family at an affordable rent. Blakeney chapel is also
being considered for sale to a local housing society who provide rented accommodation for
families born in the area who cannot afford the normal rents of this seaside town. The former
chapel in Great Cressingham has been repurposed and is home to "The Hive- a place of
creativity, spirituality and wellbeing which continues to build a community for people of all faiths
and none.
Mission and Herita
During the year, Walsingham Chapel further developed its programme as a
heritage site and a place of pilgrimage via school visits and special events. Approximately five
hundred school children lin conjunction with the Shrine Educational Department) and 250 adults
2024.. 180) crossed the threshold of the building. The Trustees have agreed the appointment of a
volunteer Chaplain to assist with the work.
The Circuit continues to make the Wighlon Chapel available to the East Anglia Methodist Heritage
Centre. It is a home for the collection and display of East Anglian Methodist heritage materials and
it is open to the public ￿ days a week from Easter to the autumn. This former church has
regained a new missional purpose by welcoming over 300 visitors in 2025. The trained volunteer
stewards engaged in many conversations about Methodism and faith, triggered by visitor
memones and questions.
Holt Methodist Church has an ongoing major building project for which funding applications are
taking place. Once completed, the potential for welcoming the community into the building will be
increased. The Trustees are supporting this important project by offering an interest-free loan,
should it be needed.
Financial Review
The Trustees report an increase in the value ofthe Balance Sheet of£458,34712024: decrease of
£1,606,154), mainly because of the acquisition of closed churches.
Before accounting for the gains and losses on property, the General Fund shows a net loss of
£54,482 {2024'. loss of £132.589)', whilst other funds also showed a net loss of £5.165 {2024'.
increase of £366,939).
The running costs of the Circuit continue to be supported by transfers from Reserves.

shares, investments and property as they consider appropriate. The Trustees have used this

year.

decisions on expenditure.

seek to cover the costs of running the Circuit.
We make provision for manse maintenance by budgeting a sum designed to cover all the
expenses, as well as sufficient lo smooth out the costs over a five-year period.
A Reserve has been created towards the removal costs of the Circuit ministers.
It is Ihe policy of the charily to hold reseNes in ils unreslricted funds which have not yet been
committed or designated for any particular purpose. The Trustees have set aside these reserves
in order to protect the future operations of the charity from the effects of any unforeseen variations
in ils income as part of a policy of good financial practice. The Trustees are committed to maintain
unrestricted funds equivalent to six months, expendilure12025'. £148,000 - 2024.. £160,000).
