The Trustees have paid due regard lo guidance issued by the Chadty Commission in deciding whal actwilies the Charity should undertake. Activities to further our First Objectlve The relief of unemployment- During 2024 we have provided a work experience and training programme (Community Wofk Programmel for unemployed pèople at our 6143 Shaw Heath. Stockport facility which consists of several rented large units. We have welcomed volunteers to our Programme from various sources. some of whom were'self-referred.. Once a volunteer has completed Ihe inductson process and inltsal assessment. their work experience is desigrsed to suit each individual's ability and requirements. Many of Ihese people have not been in work for several year5 prior to Iheir comin9 to us. The work experience we provide is quite varied and 50metlmes involves all departments of our operation or may just focus on one speciality. The main areas where experience can be gained are.. {a) Fumiture display and showroom sales, Ib) Logistics {collection and delivery of fumiture and whlle goods}, Ic ) Compulers.

RENEWAL NORTHWEST TRUSTEES. REPORT (CONTINUED){INCLUDING DIRECTORS. REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 The provision of food and Temporary accommodation- The Provision of food- Providing food for homeless unemployed individuals was reassessed at the end of 20181beginning of 2019. As a result, the weekly 'Drop in, on Sunday afternoons and our 'Slreel Work PTogtamme' on Sunday evenings. bolh based in Manchester city centre. were suspended. This was due lo an increase in rlsk linked lo these activities, mainly due lo the spice drug that has had an adverse impact on the atmosphere amongst some of the groups that we were seeking to reach. During 2020, we have Commenced an alternative way of PToviding food because of the hardship facing many families due to the Covi&19 Pandemic. We were able lo provide food hampers and gasleleclric vouchers to support those on reduced incomes. which included some of our 51aff who were part of the Govemment furfough scheme. This continued during 2021 and 2022, but this has become less of a priority for the charily and the focus instead has been on employment and accommodation. Temporary accommodation: Temporary accommodation has been a cenlral part of the work of Renewal North West for the benefit of homeles$ adults. most of which have had a history of alcohol abuse, drug abuse, or are ex-offenders. This has previously been provided al two locations in Stockport- For the first phase of the Programme, participants were accommodated In separate basement flats on the lower floor of our Executive Officer's private residence in Slockporl. The seeond phase. in the Charity's house nearby. Providing for this need remains a focus for Renewal North West, but we have been conscious of the developing needs of individuals referred to lls, along with an increase in risk. During 2021 and 2022. the slralegy for this side of the work has been developing and during 2022. we were able lo commence use of the flat accommodation above the cafe. At the end of 2022, we completed on the purchase of a new building to further this work. 26 Buxlon Road. Work on this Pfopety has progressed during 2024. Once this facility is fulty operational, we will be able lo house and care for another 5 individuals on our residential programme, doubling our Current capacity. Residents come to us Ihrough variou5 channels. but most often this happens through a referral via the prison chaplaincy service. The charity has suspended use of our Executive Officer's private residence for temporary accommodation. as this no longer aligns with the strate9y and risk tolerances agreed by the Truslees.

RENEWAL NORTHWEST TRUSTEES. REPORT (CONTINUED}{INCLUDING DIRECTORS. REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 Activities to further our ThSrd Objective Advancement of the Christian Faith: Our Faith in Christ fomis the essential basis and motivation for everything we do In pursuit of our objectives for the benefit of olhers. The Lord Jesus, when quoting the prophel Isaiah made His mission clear.. 'The Spirit of the Lord is upon me. because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel lo the poor., he hath sent me lo heal the broken hearted, lo preach deliverance to the captives. and recovering of sight to the blind. to set al liberty them that are bruised, (Luke 4 v 181. We would seek lo follow His example in concem and care for the most marginalised. It remains our desire whenever possible to enable olhers lo discover the truth about this unique PeTson and for them to experience the transforming power of a Christ filled life. Our activities that help advance Ihe Christian faiih are set out below. Organisational structure and leadership: Our Executive Officer, managers and some key volunteers are all Christians. seeking to serve God through Iheir roles. Some of these individuals would express a sense of calling to the work of Renewal North West. As such. both the leadership of the organisation as a whole and Ihe operation of the functions on a day-toqjay basis are led wilh the priority of advancing the Christian faith. Christian focus session for volunteers and staff: The first hour of each working day al 6143 Shaw Heath consists of a session to focus exclusivety on the message of hope available through Jesus Christ. This daily session is freely available to all volunteers and staff. The hour is usually divided into segments for singing and watching video dips of Christian songs and a segment devoted lo a Bible reading and tslk. We have seen that Ihis routine 'sets us up, for each day and is an excellent way lo facilitate the advancement of the Christian faith. Free Christian literature provision: Our furniture showroom is used to display literature consisting of Bibles. portions of scripture and Chrislian leaflels eto These are available to any of our beneficiaries who want them free of charge. Free literature is sometimes distributed outdoors by individual workers in the Charity. Personal Chrlstlan testlmony: We also promote the Christiars failh in Ihe most effective way by our supporters sharing their experiences of how Jesus Christ has transformed their own lives. These one-to-one witnessing opportunities often arise in our daY-t{￿daY business as cuslomers browse in our showroom. Stories of freedom from drug or drink dependency because of God's power in an individual, certainly serve to advance the Christian failh. Systematic Bible teaching: Volunteers often benefit from regular systematic teaching sessions which are often presented in video format followed by opportunity for dis¢us5ion. These sessions certainly help the participants to develop in the Christian faith. Cafe: Adjacent to our fumiture showroom, our ¢afe.'Refresh' is a facility for us to meet people from Ihe communty and informalty share Ihe message ofthe gospel.

Throughout 2024, 11 indivlduals have been employed through Renewal NW. This has brought each individual renewed hope and a transformed lrfe. For many, this has meant for Ihem a break in long lemi benefit dependency thus representing a saving to the Public Purse in benefit payments. They had discovered Ihat a fixed routine and meaningful occupatlon of time helped self-esleem mofe than time spent unoccupied at home. Residential Programme: Changes required to the resldentlal programme As referred to In our 2020 report. we had undet1aken a risk assessment of the residential programme and in ¢onjunetion wlth planning for the future. identified the following- The increased complexity of need has led us to decide that the arrangement of accommodation being provided in self-conlained units within our Executive Officer's own home is no longer an appropriate solution for this aspect of the work. A probation officer has indicated that a more suitable arrangement for the work would be an independent slaffed arrangement The Strategy for the work developed during 2021 and 2022 which includes refurblshment of the flat above the cafe to provide temporary accommodation and purchase of a propety a new building to further this work, 26 Buxton Road. The flat was completed during 2022. as was the purchase of 26 Buxton Road. Work to develop the Buxion Road property has continued during 2024.

RENEWAL NORTHWEST TRUSTEES, REPORT (CONTINUED)(INCLUDING DIRECTORS, REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 Third Object Achievements - The advancement of the Chrlstlan Faith It is very ¢Jifficult to quantify achievements in relation lo this third object simply because the outcome of believing faith in the Lord Jesus is a work of God, bul it is important to note the following.. Our responsibility is to preach-, the Lord Jesus said 'Go ye into all the world. and preach the gospel, (Mark 16 v 15}. The aclivily of making the gospel message known brings glory to the Lord Jesus and effectively is advancement of the Christian faith. There is always evidence of saving faith in the Lord Jesus. Tltus 3 v 5 describes it as 'lhe washing of regeneration, literally meaning to be bom again. It is the act of God's Holy Spirit whereby new life is implanted in a person and bring5 about a radical change be￿een what they were before salvalion and the life after becoming a Christian. Individuals who become Christians would speak of their salvalion.. 'if thou shalt confess wilh thy mouth the Lord Jesus. and shalt believe in thine heart thal God halh raised him from Ihe dead, Ihou shalt be saved. (Romans 10 v 91 Daily Christian focus session for volunteers and staff: We have shown numerous videos of Christian songs and delivered many messages to present the truth of the Christian faith in these sessions. The positive response from many of the individuals who have attended bears testimony to the effectiveness of these times toward the advancemenl of the Christian faith. Certain people have confessed how that learning more about the Chrislian faith presented in this format. has convinced them of 115 veracity. During 2024. 253 sessions were held (for each working day). generally18sling 1 hour and on average attended by 20 volunteerslemployees,. based on average attendance. 5,060 hours were covered. In addition to these formal times. many informal conversations and one- t¢H)ne discussions 'on the job. have taken place belween Christian managers and volunteers during Ihe year. Dlstribution of Bibles and Christian Ilterature: Bible5 and Christian literature are available free of charge at 61-63 Shaw Heath and Ihese items are taken regularly. Genuine Christian faith can only grow after germination of the 'living' Word of God. Systematlc Blble study: Some volunleers have benefited again thls year by participating in thematic and onseculive Bible teaching sessions. This teaching was provided under the auspices of our Executive Officer Wesley Downs. Regular local ChU￿h attendance for these individuals also provided opportunrties for knowing more about Christian topics. Both these openings for leaming have bome p0511ive results. witnessed by Ihe changed behaviour and attitude of these ft)rmer offenders. These changes provide evidence that the Christian faith has advanced in their lives resulting in langible Public Benefit. 'Refresh' Cafe: We sold 6,261 hol drinks during the year. As well as meeting a need in the a￿a. Ihe cafe also provides a venue for members of the public to drop in and engage with the message of the Christian gospel Ihrough informal conversation. Social medla: We reached 20.444 people through social medla. which also glves the opportunity for them to engage with the message of the Christian gospel. Human resources Renewal North We$l's vision is lo transform lives and bring hope through Jesus Christ, so people and their live5 are at the forefront of everything we do. We seek lo show every individual person who comes thfough our doors the love of God in real. personal and practical ways. We believe our wotk is about Telalionships and not things and so we endeavour to treat every person the same, with no person deemed more important than any other from the Executive Officer lo the newest volunteer. We want to be a place where people feel loved, cared for and respected. We offer our employees multiple benefit5, such as offering them an exlra day off on their birlhdays, so that they can share Ihat day as they wish.
