Achievements and Performance
SORP reference
| 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. |
Para 1.20 | ▪ The circuit was formed in September 2020 as a result of the merger of the former Ashton-under-Lyne, Glossop and Hyde & Denton Circuits to form the Glossop & Tameside Circuit. It was felt that the three circuits working together to support each other would be mutually beneficial and enable them to be better equipped for the future. ▪ An updated Circuit Safeguarding Policy was approved to ensure the correct proceedings were in place and adhered to. ▪ COVID-19 impacted on many activities that had been planned. Throughout the pandemic the circuit, through its churches, continually sought to make the most of the opportunities that arose. Support was given both the churches own congregations as well as the wider community. There was a strong recognition and an awareness for the need not just for providing spiritual support, but also support for people’s mental welfare. ▪ Although its churches were closed during lockdowns, the circuit responded positively to the ‘new norm’, with zoom meetings becoming one of the main ways in which contact could be maintained, as well as contact by email. Online services and Bible study groups were held as well as other meetings. ▪ Work with children and families continued: participation in assemblies took place online as well as outside activities when permitted, Youth work and Sunday children's groups continued on zoom. ▪ During Lent craft bags were distributed to 150 children ▪ Churches took up other initiatives - for example delivering afternoon teas to people when activities like this couldn’t happen on church premises. ▪ Pastoral contact was maintained through newsletters as well as additional phone calls to members of the church communities. Weekly services, Worship notes and reflections were produced and were hand delivered or sent through the post to those who couldn’t access emails. All these initiatives were well received. ▪ Overall the circuit adapted well to new ways of working and communicating with the communities it serves. ▪ Coping with, and being a worshipping community, throughout the challenges of the pandemic made the churches and the circuit overall both examine, question and review their ways of working. The circuit will continue to review and evaluate the ways in which it relates to all those it serves over the coming months and year. |
