The Circuit continued
to develop and oversee the delivery
ofthe
objectives ofthe charity as set out in the governing
documents.
The partnership
with other agencies
in the Southwick area ofthe City
continue to develop.
The covid-19 pandemic
and its associated
restrictions
placed stress on
all of our activities
with the closure ofour buildings
for several
months
from March 2020. Only a few were able to re-open before the year end.
The circuit was able to move to providing
online worship
through
various
platforms
supporting
not only our own members
and adherents
but also
to reach a wider audience
and engagement.
This is likely to become an
important
and enduring
part of our work for the future and we will be
looking to develop a digital strategy
for the circuit.
The Reserves
Policy for the Sunderland
Circuit is to hold a sum

item of major expenditure.
