Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2025 ## **Trustees’ Annual Report for the period from 1 October 2024 – 30[th] September 2025** ## **Charity name:** Ealing Green (Methodist & United Reformed) Church. ## **Charity registration number** : 1144083 ## **Objectives & Activities:** **Summary of the purposes of the Charity as set out in its governing document:** Ealing Green Church (EGC) is a partnership between the United Reformed and Methodist Churches to offer public Christian worship, service and pastoral care in the heart of Ealing. Its members come from around the world and are from a variety of Christian and social backgrounds, and different kinds of households. Its worship and study groups are open to all: all are welcome to receive communion and participate fully in the worshipping life of the community. The church seeks to meet people as and where they are, and to be a safe space for vulnerable adults and children: it has strong safeguarding policies. As a part of the Ealing Trinity Methodist Circuit the church shares ministry and mission with six other Methodist churches in the London Borough of Ealing, and over one hundred United Reformed Churches in the Thames North Synod. It maintains links with churches of different denominations in the area. Ealing Green Church is a charitable, unincorporated association governed by a constitution adopted on 20th March 2011. The trustees of the church are the members of the Church Council elected by members of the church at its Annual General Meeting. The members of this council are responsible for ensuring that the activities undertaken by the church pursue the aims and purposes and are also responsible for the maintenance of the buildings used by the church. The Council employs an Office Manager to assist with the administration of this work. **Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts:** The aims and purpose of EGC are to advance the Christian faith in accordance with the principles and practices of the Methodist and United Reformed Churches. This includes the celebration of public worship, teaching of the Christian faith, mission and evangelism, pastoral work, the provision of facilities with a Christian ethos for the local community and the support of other charities in the UK and overseas. **Worship** : Church services are open to all who seek to explore the Christian faith and those who wish to grow in faith. The church understands and acknowledges that this is best done in community where people feel safe to express themselves without fear of judgment. Worship is led by both ministers and trained lay people, and assisted by a small choir. Members enjoy a variety of approaches to worship aimed at offering a meaningful experience of encounter with God. The Reverend Sue Male became our Minister in 2018, and Sue has become an integral part of Ealing Green Church and has strengthened the variety of worship, pastoral care and our ecumenical links with other faith groups and other Christian denominations in our locality. 1 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2025 Services are held every Sunday at 11am, with additional services taking place for festivals such as Christmas and Easter and ECG occasionally hosts services for the circuit. Some Sundays the worship is held Café Style, some Sundays we worship at one of our sister churches, and on some other Sundays one or other of them joins us. We currently have no children as part of our congregation, but are always ready to hold groups specifically on a Sunday Morning, should they begin to attend, and to hold monthly all age worship. Our Sunday services are also livestreamed to our YouTube channel, Ealing Green Church. In addition, we host weekly online worship and prayer service, which brings together those from the churches cared for by Sue, being Ealing Green Church & Kingsdown Methodist Church, including some of those who are housebound. Our Monday Fellowship group, as well as the activities listed below, does offer discussion and reflection on Christian themes. Bible studies are offered throughout the year, and we welcome Kingsdown Methodist Church to join us for these meetings. ECG also hosts or offers other opportunities for study and reflection on a less regular basis. In addition, to the services led by Ealing Green Church, the **Polish Christian Church Emmanuel (Poles for Poles)** hire the hall every Sunday afternoon, offering Protestant worship in the Polish language to the large Polish community in Ealing. **Pastoral care:** _Pastoral Care is implicit in much of what we do as a Church and inherent in who we are as a community…. The Church exists to be a good neighbour to people in need... It asks, "How do we discover the needs in our community and respond to them? How do we develop friendly attitudes towards everyone we meet? Do we share with one another our concerns...?" We try to encourage the authentic care of, and inclusion of, those who for various reasons are on the periphery of the church.” (From the Methodist Church’s Website)_ ## We try to share this vision and practice the mission. At present we have 78 on our pastoral list, 6 of whom are housebound. Sadly, one of our long-standing members died. We were happy to welcome one new member to Ealing Green and another who transferred membership. Friday Zoom services continue to be well supported. Many pastoral concerns are addressed, and this is an added blessing for those who participate. The monthly Prayer Letter, now in its 6th year, is sent to those who do not have internet access and cannot watch services online. This is well received and an opportunity for the Pastoral Committee and recipients to send in prayers, poems and items of interest. A few of our Church family have been unable to attend worship for several months in the past year due to illness. They have been grateful for our prayers and support in that time. Holy Communion is taken to any of our housebound friends who request it. Once again, a group of us went Carol Singing to some of our Church family who are unable to get to Church. This was much appreciated and we were pleased that those we visited joined in with the singing. To meet the needs of those with various physical or mental health issues effectively, we agree to take training as required. This has included EDI, Safeguarding, First Aid and Defibrillator training which we hope will be repeated. Ealing Green Church remains proud to be a sight loss friendly church with The Torch Trust. Thank you to all who share in our mission of caring. _“Brother, sister let me serve you, let me be as Christ to you.”_ 2 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2025 **Hospitality:** The church hosts a Monday Fellowship group, open to all, which meets fortnightly, free of charge. These meetings follow a programme with guest speakers & refreshments, and are greatly enjoyed by those who attend. Tuesday Coffee Mornings started in September 2022, and a warm welcome, along with teas, coffees, homemade cakes and other refreshments are available free of charge. Any member of the local community is most welcome to come along; the church is open between 10.30am – 12.30pm. Occasional ‘Pot-luck Lunches’ are held after morning services are well attended and popular. Ealing Green Church supports the work of Ealing Churches Winter Night Shelter (ECWNS), in which many churches in the locality take part, one night a week, from November to March. Ealing Green Church’s shelter operates one night a week for the first six weeks of the new year. This report is sent by the organisers: We have recently finished our ‘stint’ for another year. We provide a cooked evening meal, a safe place to sleep Thursday nights, and breakfast and the means to make a packed lunch the following morning. As soon as the hall becomes free, around 5:30 pm, the early evening team of volunteers arrives and starts to assemble and make up the beds. We have been very lucky to date to have some enthusiastic and highly skilled people in the kitchen and our meals have been commented on favourably by the guests, which is lovely to hear. Around 6.30, once the volunteers who are staying to eat with the guests are briefed on the evening, the guests come into the hall, select their beds, and generally settle in. Dinner is served around 7:45. Afterwards, the guests play games or chat with volunteers while the tables are cleared and the kitchen tidied up. The night shift, comprising four volunteers, comes in as the evening volunteers and kitchen crew find their way home. Two of the night shift will sleep in separate rooms until roughly 0230 then swap with the volunteers who have remained awake. At 6:15/30, the morning team rolls up and at 7am our guests are offered breakfast and the opportunity to make sandwiches and a packed lunch if they wish. The guests help dismantle their beds and stuff their red bag with their pillow and duvet. The hall is then cleared up and made ready for whoever is coming in, generally around 9am. Afterwards the beds and bags are ferried on to the next venue by two volunteers while the blankets are carefully sorted for next week and the bed linen is separated to be delivered to other volunteers to be washed for the following week. The company of the other volunteers is a pleasure and the interaction with the guests is really uplifting. They each have a story to tell and it’s often surprisingly optimistic how, after adversity, they are getting back on their feet. Our contribution to the ECWNS would not have been possible without our team of volunteers whose commitment is exemplary. All of us at Ealing Green thank them wholeheartedly. 3 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2025 In addition to these charitable activities, the premises are used by a growing number of community groups who pay hire charges, which helps to support the upkeep of the buildings. Regular users include Ealing Symphony Orchestra, Ealing U3A, Drama Studio London (now part of University of West London), Ealing Choral Society, The Associated Boards of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM), Ealing School of Dance and a variety of classes, including Zumba and Mei Quan Tai Chi, and others. The Church also hosts addiction support groups, such as Alcoholics Anonymous, Al-Anon & Overeaters Anonymous, and sessions for one of these are held every weekday evening. **Charitable support:** ECG regards giving as part of its work of mission and the church has supported a number of charities during the year, including Christian Aid, the Rehema Community Project in Kisumu Kenya, and locally Ealing Soup Kitchen, along with Ealing Churches Winter Night Shelter and Ealing Foodbank. Much of this giving is from special collections at communion services. During the year we have continued with our monthly support to The Samaritans, and also Ealing Foodbank. We are also pleased to support the charity, Housing 4 Women, to deliver their services within the Borough of Ealing. ## **Statement confirming whether the trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit:** The Trustees of EGC, who comprise of the Church Council Members, Minister and Treasurer, are provided with the relevant guidance issued by the Charity Commission, and follow this guidance to help them ensure their decisions adhere to the purpose of EGC for public benefit. ## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity's work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole:** The identity of the church is as a place of prayer and a focus of the presence and love of God in the community. The church seeks to make that presence and love real through word and action, and offers particular support to local charities that serve the community; both by offering financial support and also on practical ways such as offering secure meeting spaces. The church offers a wide variety of approaches to worship, including creative forms of worship which can offer a fresh perspective and open up new understanding and insight. The church both actively and intentionally explores ways to promote growth, numerically, in terms of the knowledge, understanding and confidence of its members in relation to their faith; and in outreach to the community we serve. 4 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2025 ## **Financial Review** **Review of the charity’s position financial position at the end of the period:** Financial review to 30 September 2024 – note all figures in brackets refer to the previous year. **The total income** of the church in the year was £215,627 (£213,997). Of this £28,967 (£24,452) was voluntary income, income from activities for generating funds (lettings of the church hall and other rooms) was £83,636 (£89,752), and investment income was £103,024 (£99,793). **Voluntary income** for the year of £28,967 (£24,452) is made up of donations and legacies from the church congregation and supporters. Donations to the church also include those monies given for special collections, and donations from the addiction support groups, who are not charged rent for the use of the building. **Income from activities generating funds** came from the letting of the church and halls and amounted to £83,636 (£89,752): it is an aim of the church to make full use of the buildings as both an active worship space and community resource. The building is busy and is used by a wide variety of folk from our local community. **Investment income** was £103,024 (£99,793). Of this £53,250 (£47,806) came from the three flats at 3 Victoria Terrace W5 and £42,642 (£41,400), from renting the Little Church building (2b The Grove, W5) to a children’s nursery. In addition, £7,132 (£10,587) was received in interest from financial investments, being the reserves held at the Central Finance Board of the Methodist Church. **Expenditure in the year** amounted to £240,156 (£252,013). £80,614 (£80,238) was spent on **charitable activities** . This expenditure has three main components: 1. £67,148 (£65,500) was contributed to the sponsoring denominations through the assessment paid to Ealing Trinity Circuit Methodist Circuit at £60,000, and the church’s contribution to the United Reformed Church’s Ministry & Mission Fund at £7,148. At this time Ealing Green Church remains under Methodist Ministry and the different levels of contribution to the two sponsoring denominations reflects this fact. 2. Grants to charities amounted to £9,682 (£10,813). The Church has a policy of supporting charities in the UK and abroad in accordance with its stated aims. In addition, church members devote time and effort to maintaining links with charities, fundraising and working directly for them. Please see note 13.2 in the attached spreadsheet (CC17) for details of the charities supported in this financial year. 3. £3,784 (£3,925) was spent on the provision of music, Junior Church activities and other resources for the services of worship. Church members volunteer to support these activities. 5 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2025 **The management, maintenance and insurance of investment properties** amounted to £33,798 (£26,317). The cost of insuring the properties has gone up, along with the fees paid to the managing agents, due to a change in tenants in all three flats in 3 Victoria Terrace. Repairs and maintenance to the flats remained as the renovation of the exterior of the building was competed, along with some necessary repairs internally, in particular to the bathrooms. **Other expenditure** amounted to £125,744 (£141,560). The cost of operating and maintaining the church buildings was £77,838.10 (£65,041). Along with routine repairs and regular maintenance of the building, £11,016 was spent on the refurbishment of the oak flooring to the church, church foyer, corridor and two offices, £4,050 on the clearance of the stage, sheds and demolition of one shed, £1,943 on repairs to the community hall floor, £2,058 was spent on electrical repairs to lighting in the church space, office lobby & church office and corridors and £2,088 was spent on switching the alarm systems from BT Redcare to digital. The church office costs were £32,953 (£34,683), which includes the Church Office Manager’s salary, along with expenses such as phones/Wi-Fi, printing, postage etc. Other items contributing to the total of ‘other expenditure’ includes the provision of hospitality, professional services and equipment purchased for the church or office, equipment this year included the cost of the stage and hall curtains. During the year there has been an excess of spending of £24,529. However, when you discount the cost of the planned spending from reserves of the work to the stage, along with the refurbishments of the oak flooring, amounting to £25,016, we can see that the accounts have balanced. _Please note: the Trustees will be reviewing the basis of activity of expenditure to align to updated SORP reporting in the coming years._ **Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held** : It is the policy of the church to maintain the equivalent of four months’ average expenditure approximately in unrestricted funds. Excluding the cost of the planned spending to flooring and stage, unrestricted expenditure was £215,140 in 2024/2025 and so unrestricted reserves should be approximately £71,700, which represents the average expenditure pro-rated from that of 12 months, to four. At the end of the year the total equity of the charity was £183,127, of which unrestricted funds amounted to £175,413. It is the opinion of the Trustees that Ealing Green Church has sufficient funds to meet its day-to-day obligations, planned spending to the building, and to meet the reserves policy, and the church finances remain secure. The charity continues to operate as a going concern. **Principal Risks** : Ealing Green Church manages its risks and uncertainties in a proactive manner through a robust committee structure and control environment that is appropriate for the size of the Church. The Church is in the process of aligning its objectives to its risks and is looking into a risk framework approach in future reports. 6 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2025 ## **Structure, Governance and Management** ## **Type of governing document:** by Constitution **How is the charity constituted** : Ealing Green Church is a charitable, unincorporated association governed by a constitution adopted on 20 March 2011. **Trustee selection methods, including details of any constitutional provisions:** Trustees are elected from among the Members by processes that are clear and open, at the Annual Congregational Meeting, following the rules laid down by the constitution. ## **Reference and Administrative details:** **Charity name:** Ealing Green (Methodist & United Reform) Church **Other name that the charity uses:** Ealing Green Church **Registered Charity Number:** 1144083 **Charity’s Principal Address** : The Green, Ealing, London, W5 5QT 7 Charity number 1144083 Ealing Green Church: Annual Report for the year to 30 September 2025 **Name of the charity trustees who manage the charity:** those who served as trustees as members of the Church Council and/or serve at the date of this report are: |Trustee name|Office (if any)|Dates acted if not for

If there is insufficient room here, please add a separate sheet.** Investment income is derived from the rental income of two properties: namely 3 Victoria Terrace, London W5 5QS, and the former Little Church building at 2a The Grove, London W5 5LH. The property and financial asset that give rise to this investment income are excluded from these accounts, as they are held under schedule 2 of the United Reformed Church Acts, and are legally the property of the URC's North Thames Trust. Under an agreement between the North Thames Trust and Ealing Green Church, the investment income is attributed to Ealing Green Church, as are the costs of maintaining the properties and financial investments. This legal agreement is also in place and applies to the property at 19 Queen Anne's Gardens, London W5 5QD, which is currently used as a manse. CC17a (Excel) 29/07/2026 1 ��������������������������������������� ## Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Ealing Green (Methodist & United Reformed) Church Registered charity number 1144083 Year ended 30 September 2025 I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Ealing Green (Methodist & United Reformed) Church (the charity) for the year ended 30 September 2025, which are set out in the accompanying financial statements. ## Responsibilities and basis of report As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). I report in respect of my examination of the charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. ## Independent examiner's statement I confirm that I am independent of charity and that I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW). I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 1. Accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. The accounts do not accord with those records; or 3. The accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair view', which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
