Achievements and erformance 2023 Church Re ort 2023 The year started with an excellent evening of fun and games to celebrate the New Year in our new venue at St. Catherines Walk along with a time to reflect on the goodness of God over us as a church in 2023. In January, our online Zoom prayer meeting continues to be a success with various church members leading us in prayers for our nation and for our local cornmunity. We had many visiting speakers from all over Wales and even as far as Hong Kong, Denmark and the USA. Our monthly format for services was also an encouragement to everyone. The first Sunday of the month being a family service where the children are a part of the whole service and the talk is mainly directed at them. These services have been so rewarding and also an opportunity for our children's team, who wonderfully each week put on a fantastic program to have a week's break. The new venue has allowed us to do so much more for the children who attend each week. The second Sunday an opportunity to continue studies into the word like the excellent book on Romans by Andrew Ollerton, the third Sunday Café Church an opportunity to discuss around a coffee the message from the previous week. This has been life changing for so many as they have had the opportunity to ask questions and receive prayer in a small group setting We've also continued to meet up every quarter with our close friends from Bethel Church and worshipped together as ONE Church with some excellent visiting speakers. We continued to run Alpha with Bethel Church and our relationship with the Alpha team has continued to grow and they have been very supportive of our initiatives to reach out into the community with the good news of the gospel. Alpha UK helped to match fund our Christmas events at st. Catherines Walk with over 2500 in attendance with many children receiving a present frorll Father Christmas. As a result, we saw many attending our Christmas services. Many from the church attended the New Wine Cymru conference and we continue to be grateful for their support to Towy Community Church.

Tovry Community Church 07181550 This was also a very special year for Towy as we also celebrated 10 years of Xcel Project. On Sunday the 24th of September we held a thanksgiving service at Xcel Bowl. Local dignitaries and the community were invited to celebrate and give thanks to God for the amazing work of the projects over the past 10 years it was truly a momentous and emotional day. Together we celebrated "Reaching People - Changing Lives" through Carmarthen Foodbank, Xcel Furniture and Xcel Community Shop, Carmarthen Community Money Advice and of course the excellent community venue of Xcel Bowl. It was wonderful to be reminded of real lives that have been impacted throughout our community... .Yes it's all worth it when you see the difference in Carmarthen when a church and community work together. Our youth events have continued to grow with football at the "Pod" and also a youth service called The Gathering" with around 300 youth from all over West Wales in attendance. So again, a very busy year, for Towy Community Church. A year when we continued to reach out to bless, help and support our community We pray that we will continue to serve Carmarthen in practical and spiritual ways. Our mission remains the same, displaying God's love to this wonderful community, bringing hope in Jesus name, "Reaching People and Changing Lives" Xcel 2023 Re ort In 2023 we continued to face the pressures faced by the economy as a whole - the cost-of-living crisis being a major factor in both the bowling operation lour main source of income) and the demands on our social outreach projects We are very grateful to the dedication of our staff and volunteers for their hard work to maintain our project's main aim of reaching people and changing lives. Xcel Bowl In May we made a major investment in our future by financing a refurbishment of the bowl, requiring the site to be closed for a period of weeks. The soft play area was reduced but is now provided free of charge and aimed at pre- school children in particular. We are very proud to be recognised on Google as the second highest rated bowling alley in Wales with a rating of 4.6 out of 5. This success is a Credit to our manager, Nat Gale and his team. We are fully open to special community events and by disabled user groups. We are delighted to report that the majority of user groups have returned to using the Bowl on a regular basis. The Bowl was utilised to host a small number of Towy Community Church events. Xcel Furniture The Furniture recycling centre, incorporating the Community Shop was fully open throughout the year. Again, we place on record our thanks to Hywel Jenkins and his team of employees and volunteers for their hard work through the year. During 2023 we collected 32,108 items, totalling 147 tonnes of wh ich 10.45 ton nes were of large electrical items. In total. 110 units were given free of charge to the community and 22 families were assisted with free furniture under our voucher scheme. We would want to record our thanks to EasyBooks for their continued sponsorship of the furniture van, which enables us to run two delivery vehicles. Carmarthen Foodbank and Carmarthen Community Money Advice We were delighted in 2023 to welcome both Cath Cork and Carolyn Yelland to our team as Foodbank and CMA manager respectively. Janet Heath moved across from Furniture to become our Warehouse Manager within the Foodbank team. Miriam Jones moved to oversee both teams but chose to resign from the project after many years of dedicated service to pursue other opportunities Anwen Turton has flourished in Goncentrating her time in the area she works best in direct5y advising clients We place on record our continued thanks lo all employees and volunteers for their hard work and dedication in what has been an increasingly difficult year as the cost-of-living crisis As directors we are humbled by their diligence and compassion in meeting the needs of our community. As a Foodbank we continue to work alongside The Trussell Trust as one of a small number of Foodbanks to run their Pathfinder Project research - looking at the causes of poverty in our area. 41 Piiye

Towy Community Church 07181550 During the year, the Foodbank worked with over fifty referral agencies (the most referrals coming from Carmarthen County Council Housing Services. Carmarthen Job Centre and our own Community Money Advice) and saw a massive 37°/o increase in emergency food parcels. In total. 1.377 three day emergency food parcels were distributed with a total of 3,279 people fed (including 1 ,257 children). The main reasons for the referrals were the rising costs of food and energy bills allied to low wages, debt issues and ongoing physical and mental health issues. The community continues to be generous in their donations but we have seen a drop-off in food donations and have increasingly had to supplement our supplies from our own income. Community Money Advice is now established as a support to any requiring debt and budgeting assistance. We recognise that the work with every client is complex and work intensive and would thank all our volunteers through the year and in particular Peter Mount for his work. The Table in the centre of Carmarthen is now fully open and is used by both us and other agencies to support our community. We have supported 56 clients over the year and managed £467,441.09 of debts. Since August 2023 we have been capturing more data on our overall impact and are proud to announce that we have achieved £197,000 of financial gains for our clients. Case Study An individual living with a 17 year old child moved into the area after the death of their partner at the beginning of the year. Renting in private accommodation, not working due to ill health and on basic universal credit. They had already started to apply for Personal Independence Payment and waiting their decision (this process can take up to 12 weeks). This person first presented themself at Carmarthen food bank, with very low income, facing a very difficult situation and in a new area. From sharing their story with volunteers, they were referred into our CMA debt service. They met every week for approximately a Month with CMA who gave debt advice and general support to help Inancially. This included contacting creditors, arranging a moratorium period against further action and developing a budget for future planning. We undertook a benefit check identifying bereavement support, as well as providing ongoing food parcels while things were processed. Made a discretionary assistance fund application for a new cooker and fridge for their new home. As starting in a new home, this was not furnished so Xcel furniture was able to support in supplying wardrobes. Over a 6 week period, we were able to make a difference and met all their needs and they are now back on track, their income has increased, they have an affordable debt management plan and no longer using the food bank services. At the end of our last appointment, the client broke down in tears and said 'you have no idea the relief I feel knowing that everything looks1ike it will be okay - thank you. Summary We began these projects to support Towy Church's mission of reaching people and changing lives and remain committed to these goals. We appreciate your prayers for wisdom in planning for the future of the projects, and for the support many of you give in volunteering roles - thank you.

The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). In our opinion, the financial statements.. give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 sl December 2023 and of its incoming resources and application of resources for the year then ended., have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice., and have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) IISAS (UKII and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial staten7ents section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC'S Ethical standard and we have fu Ifilled our other eth ical responsibilities in accordance with these req uirements We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Conclusions relating to going concern In auditing the financial statements. we have concluded that the director's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or colleLtively, may cast significant doubt on the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. Other information The other information comprises the information included in the annual report. including the trustees, report. other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report. we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Matters on which we are required to report by exception In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees, report We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion.. adequate and proper accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us, or the financial statements are not in agreerllent with the accounting records and returns., or

Towy Community Church 07181550 certain disclosures of trustees, remuneration specified by law are not made.. or we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. Responsibilities of trustees As explained more fully in the trustees, responsibilities statement, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company lawl are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements In respect of irregularities, including fraud. In relation to fraud, the objectives of our audit are to identify and assess the risk of material misstatement of the Inancial statements due to fraud, to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatement due to fraud through designing and implementing appropriate responses and to respond appropriately to fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit. However, it is the primary responsibility of management, with the oversight of those charged with governance, to ensure that the entity's operations are conducted in accordance with the provisions of laws and regulations and for the prevention and detection of fraud. In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud, the audit engagement team.. Obtained an understanding of the nature of the industry and sector, including the legal and regulatory framework that the company operates in and how the company is complying with the framework., Inquired of management, and those charged with governance, about their identification and assessment of the risks of irregu larities, including any known actual, suspected or alleged instance of fraud.. Discussed matters about non-compliance with laws and regulations and how fraud might occur including assessment of how and where the financial statements may be susceptible to fraud. As a result of these procedures, we consider the most significant laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the financial statements are FRS 102, the Charities Act and the Companies Act 2006. We performed audit procedures to detect non-compliance which may have a material impact on the financial statements which included reviewing the financial statements d isclosures. The audit engagement team identified the risk of management override of controls as the area where the financial statements were most susceptible to material misstatement due to fraud. Audit procedures performed included but were not limited to testing manual journal entries and other adjustments and evaluating the business rationale in relation to any significant. unusual transactions and transactions entered into outside the normal course of business. A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council's website at-. www.frc.org. uklauditorsresponsibilities.
