Report for the Year Ended 31st December 2024 2024 has been a year of change, reorganising and consolidation. The church had a considerable number of staffing changes in a comparatively short period of time whiih meant that some restructuring and reshaping has been required, a process that has not been entirely completed yet. Our Children, Youth and Families Co-ordinator, att Beckett, left to take up a post at the Diocese of Norwich and our trainee Sports Minister, Matt Cook, left to begin a post as Youth Worker in Worcester. Our Curate, Adam Poole also moved on to his first incumbency. When Matt Beckett left we appointed Amy Nixon to fill part of his role but sadly she struggled with the post and moved on in September. At the time of writing that vacancy has not yet been refilled and the trustees are Still considering some further restructuring. The Pre-school also had 2 members of staff temporarily on maternity and adoption leave respectively. Joe Welch also stepped up to take on the youth work In Ashlll along with his exist5ng role in Kidz Klub when Martha Rees left to start a family. In September Tanya Lynn started as the Children, Youth and Families Development worker for Sw3ffham on a 12-month grant received from the CPRX fund via the Diocese of Norwich. We aim to ralse further funds to extend this post during the course of 2025. Aside from cill of this many of the ministries which operate in the church have continued to provide support and outreacki to the local communities with a high degree of success. The Debt Centre has continued to provide a high-5evel service to people struggling with unmanageable debt and the annual review providea an excellent report. The Pre-school is well attended and despite staffing changes has continued to provide a high standard of care and education for the children attending. Our youth provision tias grown and continues to gather a good number of young people from around the region both on Sunday rnorning and during the week. There have been some challenges ensuring that children's ministry on Sunday mornings has had adequate provision and this has been largely due to the above mentioned changes and restructui-ing. The Trustees have been considering this issue along with some of the other problems that have arisen as the 2 congregations have become busier in the post-Covid-19 era. There are many othei" ministries that have continued to thrive and grow that we do not have space here t.o cover but it has been a joy to see the 2 venues being used with a5 Imuch frequency and vitality as we have seen through the year.

-he Swaffham congregation moved into a building called The Barn, rented from iwaii ham Town Council, at the end of October after a second period of discusslon and iegotiation. The Town Council had expressed a desire to see the building turned Into J vibrant hub for the town and that is what our team of volunteers and Tanya our CYF Alorker have set out to achieve. To that end a number of new groups have been Jstablished including Busy Bees (Craft faroup), Warm Space, Noah's Ark Swaffham, qeartstrings and a Swaffham Youth group. We established the Swaffham Steering JfoLJP to assist with the planning and rLinning of these endeavours and they have )een a blessing to the whole organisation. Each of these ministries have grown in -heir own right and are now regularly attracting increasing numbers of people. We 13ve Blso seen the congregatiun grow in th= past 12 months with weekly attendances 3veraging around the 55-60 Inark. jur board of Trustees have met 6 timeJ durlng the year and, with the help of our liurch adminlstrator (Becky Russell), Flnance Team (Rysla Bane and Lorraine Parker) and Secretary (Jonathan Adams), have done an excellent job o! ensuring that the churcli rernaipÈS coinpliant and focussed on outreach and growth. As ever, It is worthy of note that the church would not thrive as it has done or progress If it were not for our dedicated staff and the army of people who willingly give their tinie In such 3 wide variety of voluntary capacities. We are all indebted to theiii. t 15 inevit3ble that 202E will bring some new challenge5 along with some of those we Ciirry with us from 2024. Changes In government always bring changes to the workplace and we already know that Staff co ets and running costs will increase as we move through the year. At the same time there are areas where further Investment is needed that wp. will rieed to address but we approach these as we have with all things in faith that God provides for the things He has ordained.
