## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Significant activities** 

## **Church services:** 

Services are held each Sunday at 10:30am, consisting of times of worship, preaching (this is also streamed to Facebook), communion etc. 

We started to focus on 'Families' and have continued with this theme.  Throughout the year of 2022 Mandy was supported by Michael Collins and Angela Johnson-Coccia who shared preaching and met and prayed regularly for the direction of preaches.  We were also supported by Guest Speakers coming along on some Sunday mornings and the occasional Sunday evening message. 

Regular church attendee number remained around the same with some people moving on and new people joining us.  After the morning service we have fellowship time. 

## **Children’s church:** 

Numbers of children varied in a big way during 2022, at the start of the year we needed to split down into two groups - which we are now able to do again quickly, to support the 'older' children age range.  We are blessed to have a strong group of Children's church leaders who spend time each week preparing a time of learning and activities for the Children's church.  The organisation of the Children is varied week on week, most times they will stay in for the worship and go out during the preach, they will also have the opportunity to take communion. 

## **Café:** 

The cafe has seen quite a year of change with many new people coming in to cook food, serve and help with general cleaning up, we could not run without our team of volunteers and are so grateful to them.  Particularly for Nigel who prepares a 'special' for each Tuesday which is so popular on this day.  The cafe is used by church members and local residents and is a hub for meeting and spending time with friends.  The day to day running of the cafe is managed by Mandy/Sarah who put in place rotas, cleaning checks, 

ensure food is bought etc. 

## **Youth:** 

The Youth have continued to meet in the Access centre, as they have outgrown their previous space, they meet every week term time.  We are supported by an incredible team who give up their time to come and support the Alford Youth.  The Youth have special trips out e.g., to local trampolining parks, bowling, water sports which are subsidised for them. The team arrange different activities on a weekly basis for them. 

## **Foodbank:** 

During 2022 the UK entered times of financial hardship due to the rising energy cost prices, this increased the need for people to come and use the foodbank.  Sarah leads the foodbank, and we have a team of volunteers that are invaluable to us - the come in sort out food donations, go to buy extra supplies, do occasional deliveries. 

The food bank is open Monday, Wednesday and Friday's 10 – 2pm and in times when we are not open answering messages can be left. 

We are still using Fareshare, in addition to donations given by the public and shopping that we undertake personally. 

We are also supported by and work with Pitchers of Alford for fresh fruit and veg. 

## **Senior fellowship and chair aerobics** 

Evelyn arranged for the seniors to meet back mid-year 2022, but after having such a long break due to covid the group did not return as before so is now closed. 

## **Renew Wellbeing:** 

Renew Wellbeing was held each Tuesday in 2022, except when closed for holiday time.  We were blessed to have Tracey join us to hold craft workshops fortnightly, these are free for people to attend (paid for by the church).  The team who we are grateful to volunteers, from within and outside of the church members, for coming along each week to put out craft supplies and primarily be there to listen and talk to those who might be lonely. We still ensure a rhythm of prayer is followed, beginning, middle and end of each session (10 - 2pm). The group has been well attended, it is free to come along and the café is open if people would like to purchase food and drinks.

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Warm bank** 

We started a warm bank at the very end of 2022, this is a national drive to help people to keep warm who are struggling to heat their homes due to the rising energy bills costs.  The warm bank is open 4 days a week, three of the days are when the cafe is open, and a Wednesday is a stand-alone day.  People can come in have a hot drink, sit and keep warm.  There will be friendly face to meet them. 

## **Public benefit** 

In the furtherance of our objectives and aims, we provide and are involved in a range of activities whereby our facilities  are used seven days a week by church members and members of the local public. As trustees we are mindful of the requirements under the Charities Act 2011 for our activities to show 'Public Benefit,  the following is a list of just some   of our activities throughout the year, which clearly demonstrates 'Public Benefit in accordance with our objectives. This  list is by no means exhaustive: 

- Regular weekly church meetings for all ages including worship, prayer and bible study. 

- Regular weekly youth meetings. 

- Outings and special events for all age groups. 

- Advice service social and recreational facilities. 

- Community 'Food Bank' where food and assistance are given to those in need in cases of hardship.

partnership meetings. 

- Utilisation of the facilities by other social groups such as exercise fitness groups and 

flower arrangement classes. 

- Support of overseas missions, projects and missions personnel. 

- Provision of training and educational courses, as and when required. 

- Liaison with Police, Youth offending service and local schools.

Cafe providing food, drinks including renew wellbeing support for lonely/mental health 

## **Volunteers** 

We are fully reliant on the contribution made by our volunteers, without their assistance we cannot function effectively. As we are not in a position to have paid staff, our volunteers are used in a variety of roles including: general administration, building maintained and cleaning, administration and finance and day to day activities, outlined in this report. We value and appreciate the effort and work which they contribute and the many hours spent. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Principal funding sources** 

The principal sources of funds for the charity were regular gifts and offerings from church members each month. Additional funds were raised via fundraising events taken on by members of our congregation. 

We also received a number of grants which helped sustain our Food Bank and premises during the Covid period.

## **Reserves policy** 

The charity aims to retain reserves for operational purposes. In the short term, if excess reserves arise, the charity will  invest the surplus until it can be utilised.  The continued aim of Board is to seek over time, to establish a free reserve of approximately 3 months average - expenditure, or 25% of annual expenditure. The charity also seeks to build up reserves gradually over time in order to  eventually cover the mortgage of the church on Chauntry Road. 

The continued aim of Board is to seek over time, to establish a free reserve of approximately 3 months average - expenditure, or 25% of annual expenditure. The charity also seeks to build up reserves gradually over time in order to  eventually cover the mortgage of the church on Chauntry Road. 

As at 31 December 2022, total funds held by the charity totalled £ 195443   (2020 £ 205733) of which £21542 (2021 

£285721) was restricted and £173901 (2021: £177161) was unrestricted. 

## **Review of the period** 

The principal sources of funds for the charity were regular gifts and offerings from church members which amounted to 

£26378 within Donations & Legacies and grants 

Gift Aid reclaimed of £5822 accounted for 10.2% of income. Most of the remaining income was derived from 

income from the cafe 

All income received during the year has been used in the furtherance of the charity's objectives 

## **Future plans for 2023** 

Following on from a good 2022, we will continue with alternating between preachers who are working together to pray and plan the direction for the Sunday theme. 

Our focus is on 'Families', this includes all ages from the very young, with a potential new toddler play group starting, to ensuring youth have a good team and feel valued, to ensuring we have age related activities so that all feel valued and listened to. 

At the end of 2022 we had an incident where the ceiling collapsed in the Chauntry back hall, this needs to be our main focus. Other repair work include the heating in the Chauntry main church and looking to get planning for replacing the windows in the Access Centre, West Street.

## **Report of the Trustees** 

## **for the Year Ended 31 December 2022** 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

## Wider network 

Our organisation places great store on being accountable and in this regard we have a number of relational links. We are members of the Ground Level Network, a national network of inter-denominational churches and charities, with its head office based in Lincoln, to which we as a team voluntarily make ourselves accountable for our conduct. 

## Induction and training of new trustees 

All trustees as existing members of the Church are familiar with the work of the charity. However, from the point of view of responsibilities of a trustee, they are provided with a copy of the governing document, the latest audited accounts, copies of recent minutes of meetings, and all policy documents. These documents are explained in detail during a personal training session affording the opportunity for the new trustee to raise questions and obtain satisfactory answers. 

As a matter of course all new Trustees are required to undergo a DBS check. All new Trustees receive a copy of the Charity Commission booklets Welcome to New Trustees, as well as booklet CC3 The Essential Trustee' and are further encouraged to refer to the Commission's web site as a source of updated information and news. 

## Risk management 

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. 

The Board through its monthly meetings and in consultation with other suitably skilled church members continuously reviews and assesses operations to ascertain potential risks to the organisation, its personnel (both staff and volunteers) and the wider public. Numerous policies and procedures have, and continue to be devised and put in place, to minimise risk to all concerned. 

## Payment of Trustees and management personnel 

No trustees are paid in connection with their duty as Trustees. However M A Smith does receive remuneration for her role as senior minister (Pastor) of the church. This salary is paid in accordance with the authority of the Charity's governing document and the individual concerned has no input into decisions affecting their remuneration.
