The Circuit produces a quarterly preaching plan to ensure regular acts of worship take place at each of the 4 Methodist Churches and the Methodist Home for the Aged in its geographical area. These are open to all people, without charge. We confirm the trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit.

.

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)

Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)

You may choose to include further statements, where relevant, about:

The Circuit Model Trust Fund had a balance at the year-end of £3,240. This fund derives from sales of chapels and manses and is restricted by the Conference. This restriction is an internal regulation though the fund can be used for a variety of purposes. This year the fund has been used towards partial funding for the circuit’s Youth Worker and for Community Lay Workers. The Circuit Leadership team will be looking to draw up a set of ground rules, for acceptance by the Circuit Meeting, to ensure grants made from the Circuit Model Trust Fund are used effectively for mission and capital works.

The Circuit Leadership Team is made up of volunteers and ordained ministers who together consider the direction for spiritual growth and social enterprise within the geographical area of the circuit.
