## **Section C                    Objectives and activities** 

**Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document** 

To advance the Christian faith in accordance with the objects of the Presbyterian Church of Wales as set out in the Rules which includes serving our community through practical activity 

The Elders are committed to ensuring that that Church is a worshipping and serving Christian community in our local area. The Elders are concerned to ensure that the activities that occur within the building and beyond are effective in promoting the values and principles of the Christian faith. We aim to incorporate as wide as possible an expression of activities from regular worship and praise and prayer to Bible Study and community service. 

We have considered the Commission’s guidance on public benefit and in particular, the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. 

**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)** 

We try to ensure that there are opportunities for everyone with whom we have contact to understand the implications of the Christian faith and to live it out and practice it in the world in their ordinary lives. 

We focus on worship and prayer, learning about the Gospel and the teaching of the Bible in general and helping people learn the implications of living the Christian life. We provide pastoral care for those who seek it and attempt to reach out in mission and service to any who do not yet understand what the Christian faith is.

## Section D                      Achievements and performance 

2025 saw the Church celebrate its 100[th] year. The year started with the induction of two new elders who now play a full part in their roles as Elders and Trustees. A special weekend of celebration was held over the Pentecost weekend with a concert, Service of celebration and a community party engaging with the local population, promoting our purpose through the gospel and seeking to offer support when we could. 

## _Leadership Team_ 

Throughout the year the Minister, Rev. Owen Batstone, Phil Jenkins and elders have ensured the delivery of the aims of the church’s ministry of Worship, teaching and pastoral care with support of the Presbyterian Church of Wales (PCW). 

The Minister, assistant minister and Elders meet monthly, notes are kept, and further communication takes place in the interim though email and direct conversation. An annual morning meeting to discuss future priorities is held. We continue to communicate with our members and community through a regular newsletter supplemented by communication at our services (in person and online) and in our social media pages. Our monthly Committee meeting where Trustees and elected & co-opted members of the congregation manage the resources and fabric of the Church meets regularly and has ensured the finances, building resources and health and safety issues are monitored monthly. GDPR and Safeguarding issues and ensured DBS checks are regularly reviewed and up to date. The Annual General Meeting was held in March. 

We continue to actively monitor and manage the maintenance needs of the Church building. All urgent needs have been addressed. A plan has been made to strengthen the regular upkeep of the building and indicative budgets identified. A dedicated subgroup of the committee keeps this under active review. We have established a small group to start considering the future for our church building and site to enable us to consider how we can ensure our building fulfils our long-term needs. WE hope to develop options in the next 12-18 months for further discussion with the membership and PCW. 

## _Worship and Prayer_ 

We meet weekly on a Sunday morning for our main service of Worship and Praise and have a regular programme of meetings on the Sunday evening to grow the faith and meet the needs of our congregation. The Church continues to invest in enhanced Audio-Visual equipment to ensure our Church services are accessible to those with hearing difficulties as well as improving the quality of our online broadcast, capturing the wider congregational singing. Junior church meets during the Sunday morning service and Communion is part of the morning worship on the second Sunday of every month. We have seen a gradual increase in the numbers of those attending the service. During the year we have welcomed a number of new

members to the Church, and many are eager to involve themselves in the life of the church in practical ways too. 

The Trustees (Elders) ensure that there is a variety of expressions of Christian worship from traditional organ led worship to praise band choruses, from reflective and prayerful meditation to more exuberant and energetic praise and we have been able to deliver this across the year with able willing musicians. We continue to develop and grown our media team. We welcome all those of a Christian faith who wish to participate regardless of formal allegiance. Anyone who is unable to attend can be contacted and visited at home or in hospital, as regulations permit, by the Minister and the Elder who has pastoral charge of them. Numbers attending and taking communion have grown. 

We continue to hold a monthly community meal that enables us to provide fellowship and a free meal for those in our church in our wider community. Numbers are growing from members of the church and community. We have maintained the required food handling training to ensure a level 5 food hygiene rating from Cardiff Council and have updated our cooking appliances to meet the demand. 

We have a growing number of midweek house groups and continue to hold our fortnightly theology group. We continue to use YouTube to broadcast services live and then release teaching and worship content to be available on our dedicated channel. Our sermons are also available as a podcast. Numbers accessing these formats continue to increase. 

The two prayer meetings on a Wednesday evening and Sunday morning services have slowly increasing attendance. We have developed a private closed WhatsApp group for members to share prayer and pastoral needs. Both weekly prayer meetings pray, especially for those who have requested such support and to remember the needs of the world and our community. 

We have continued to explore more ways of reaching the families and young people in the area, to enable us to meet their spiritual and practical needs. We have increased our work with other churches, particularly for young people. Our Toddlers group and group for primary school children are well attended and supported by appropriately trained members of the Church. 

The Elders continue to monitor our pastoral provision to ensure all those allied to the church have easy access to support and prayer. The church is open for prayer and pastoral care with the ministry team three mornings a week and this is well used. We hold regular meditative communion services that provides prayer and support for those with any needs. 

We work closely with the Hospital Chaplains. The Minister takes communion regularly to members who request it. 

## _The Wider Community_ 

The Church has continued to ensure our message, our meetings and events, and our online presence makes it clear we are available to serve and support the community. We continue to host and provide resources for the PCW as well as hosting a number of inter-church events. The minsters and other members visit other local churches to preach. We held a large outreach event at Christmas as well as the community events in June to celebrate our centenary. Over the two events between 800 – 1000 people attended and we have been building on the links formed with our community. We held a special community Christmas lunch that provided a Christmas dinner for over 80 people. 

We have held several special Charity collections over the year including collections made at Christmas, Easter, Harvest and the community events, We have sought to provide comfort and support for those bereaved in the neighbourhood. There have been several people who have connected with the Church output in its various forms over the past year, we have been approached for spiritual support and received positive feedback from individuals who have received benefit from some of our outreach. We continue to ensure that the Church is both accessible to, and provides for, the practical and spiritual needs of our community including providing a venue for local groups.

**Independent examiner's report on the accounts** 

## **Section A                        Independent Examiner’s Report** 

**Report to the trustees/** Charity Name **members of** PARK END PRESBYTERIAN CHURH OF WALES, CARDIFF **On accounts for the** 31[ST] December 2025 **Charity no** 1138189 **year ended (if any) Set out on pages** 1-5 (remember  to include the page numbers of additional sheets) 

**Respective** The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The **responsibilities of** charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under **trustees and examiner** section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the 1993 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

      - examine the accounts under section 43 of the 1993 Act, 

      - to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 43(7)(b) of the 1993 Act, and 

      - to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

- **Basis of independent** My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by **examiner’s statement** the Charity Commission.  An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records.  It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters.  The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

   - **Independent** In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention **examiner's** 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, **statement** the requirements: 

         - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the 1993 Act; and 

         - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 1993 Act 

         - have not been met ; or 

      2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
