GRACE CHURCH DELL ROAD
TRUSTEES. ANNUAL REPORT
for the year ended 31 March 2025
structure. Governance & Management
Governing Document
The Church is a registered charitable incorpordted organisation, affiliated to the Fellowship of
Independent Evangelical Churches (FIEC).
The Charity Commission granted Registered Charity status on 16 January 2014 under
registration number 1155358.
For the year ending 31 March 2025, the Church was governed by a Church Constitution dated
16 January 2014. There is also a Church Covenant which sets out the beliefs and practices of
the members and deals with the day-to-day operation of the Church, including the appointment
of Elders.
Organlsational Structure
The Church is governed by a leadership team (Trustees) comprising all of the Church's Elders
and two Deacons of the Church. They meet ￿gUlarlY throughout the year to set policy and
review the activities of the Church.
The decisions of the Trustees are subject to scrutiny from members of the Church at business
meetings of the Church members which occur at least four times a year.
Significant financial decisions are taken having considered the advice of the members of the
Church as required by the Church's goveming documents.
The Trustees are not remunerated by the Church for their work as Trustees. However, three
Trustees, acting in the year to 31 March 2025, were remunerated for their work as employed
full-time Elders of the Church. The remuneration of Elders is determined in accordance with the
Church Constitution and Church Covenant. The remuneration of employed Elders is
recommended by the Church's Employment Committee consisting of selected members of the
Church and chaired by a non-employed Trustee. An individual Elder does not participate in the
deterniination of the remuneration they receive, whether directly or indirectly.
Recruitment and Appointment of Trustees
Trustees and Elders of the Church are proposed by the existing Trustees where they have
satisfied themselves both of the need for further Trustees, and that the proposed individual
meets the qualifications set out in the Church Constitution. Following election by the members,
training and induction of a new Trustee is overseen by the existing Trustees, who may delegate
certain elements of the induction process to staff members.
In January 2025, Ben Kirsch stepped down as an Elder and Trustee of the Church due to
relocating to be near family. In July 2025, Andy Weatherley stepped down from being an Elder
and Trustee having relocated to take up a role with another church in Nottingham. The Trustees
would like to thank both Ben and Andy for their many years of service to the Church. We a
delighted that in December 2024 Anthony Opoku became an Elder and Trustee of the Church.
Risk Managernent
The Trustees have examined the major strategic and operational risks which the Church faces
and are satisfied that systems have been established to monitor those risks so that the
necessary steps can be taken to lessen them.

"We're all about helping people love Jesus more and more"
Objertives
The charltable objects of the Church are the advancement of the Christian faith in accordance
with the Church's Basis of Faith primarily but not exclusively within Birmingham and the
surrounding neighbourhood; and other such charitsble purposes as shall, in the opinion of the
Trustees, further the work of the Church.
Review of activities and impact for Publlc Beneflt
The Church holds a series of weekend and midweek activities and in addition provides financial
support to individuals and organisations involved in Christian activities.
When planning and reviewing activities, the Trustees give due consideration to the Charity
Commission's general guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the specific guidance on
charities for the advancement of religion. In particular, we try to enable ordinary people to live
out their faith as part of the Church in our local community.
The activities of the Church are overseen by its leadership (the Elders, Trustees and Deacons),
and are carried forward both by the Church staff, and by the extensive involvement of
volunteers drawn from Church members and other regular attendees. This pattern is seen in all
areas of the life of the Church including: leading of midweek groups; youth and children's
activities; and activities within the community.
The Church welcomes members and attendees from all backgrounds with the aim of ensuring
that they do not miss the opportunity to benefit from its activities.
The continued use of Dell Road Gospel Hall as a venue has continued to be a great asset for the
Church for its midweek activities. From September 2024, the whole Church started meeting
together at King's Norton School for Boys for its Sunday morning senlice, providing greater
space and facllltles for a growlng congregation, The Church continues to be thankful to the
school for the continued use of the building and additional storage into a second academic year
in September 2025. This is the first time in many years that the location of a Sunday ser+/ice
has remained the same for a second consecutive year.
Regular artivities
Noah's Ark, our parent and toddler group has continued to run and provides a space for parents
and carers to soclallse. Thls provldes a vitsl help to avoid social isolation often felt by parents in
the early days of parenting. The atmosphere of Noah's Ark is regularly commended for its
welcome.
Our youth programme has expanded through the last year and continues to meet every Sunday
afternoon in term time. It provides a safe place for secondary school age children to play games
and explore questions of faith and usually has more than 15 attendees.
Our English Club contlnues to provlde a safe context for people to ask faith questions as well as
practice their spoken English, with 25 class members on average each week. In addition to the
class, the Church has also organised a number of events including cultural celebrations and fairs
for families of the classes to meet one another. Following the weekly class there is a short basic
English Bible Study where a number of the students enjoy the opportunity to investigate
Christianity.
Every Tuesday the Church runs a free coffee morning with an open discussion time, particularly
welcoming retired people who enjoy time to meet, chat and hear a bible talk, usually from one
of the Church pastors. For the group who have been meeting together it has proven to be a vital
moment of social interaction in their week.
For the second time, the Church ran a 7-week course called the Be￿avement Journey, running
in January and February 2025. This provided a space for those who have experienced grief from
the loss of a loved one to speak about their experiences. The Church continues running a
course for people Investlgatlng Chrlstlanlty called "Come Dlne With Us" allowing those in the
community to explore faith and big questions of life in a welcoming environment.

"We're all about helping people love Jesus more and more"
The Church has an ongoing programme for students at the University of Birmingham, offerlng
pastoral care through a number of 1-2-3s enabling students attending the Church to receive
some pastoral input from an older Christian if they want to. The Church has also run regular
sessions called 'Food-ology'. Over dinner the students have had the opportunity to find out more
about Christianity and a chance to ask lots of questions.
In August 2025 we were pleased that the number of children attending our summer holiday
Increased from 30 in 2024 to 35 in 2025 for a week of 'Holiday Super Club,. Some members of
the Church youth club were able to help as volunteers.
As well as our weekly Sunday serrfices, the Church offers additional services at Christmas and
Easter to provide the local community with more opportunltles to connect with the Chrlstian
faith during those seasons. The Church also hosts a free Nativity Trail which enables families
and young people to explore the real meaning of Christmas alongside an artivity trail, as well as
enjoying crafts and refreshments. The Church has continued its support in providing Christmas
gifts for children in families receiving short-term emergency accommodation. In December
2024, the Church youth took on this project which involved fundraising for the presents,
choosing and wrapping the presents before delivering them to the accommodation and meeting
some of the residents. At Easter, the Church was able to run an Easter Trall with clues to find
around the local park. All of these events received lots of support and were widely appreciated
by the local community.
The Church has enjoyed building a relationship with Oak Mountain Presbyterian Church (OMPC}
in Birmingham Alabama. They have supported various aspects of our work including sending a
team of volunteers to the UK to serve our Church for a week over recent years. This year they
came for the third year in a row and helped to run our children's work during our Church
'Weekend Together,. While in the city they were hosted by Church members for meals, meeting
church planters across Birmingham and engaging in cultural seminars run by Church staff
members. With the departure of Andy Weatherley as a paid Elder, Lead Pastor and Trustee in
the summer of 2025, the Church 'Weekend Together, incorporated an all-age 70s themed
goodbye party and celebration.
The Church remains committed to reaching, teaching, discipling, and training Christians to carry
out Gospel ministry in our community and further afield. As part of this activity, the Church is
committed to planting churches in the Birmingham area. The Church is therefore involved with
the Birmingham Collective (previously known as 2020 Birmingham), as part of a coalition of
Birmingham churches working in partnership to launch new churches across the city.
New Building
Due to the continuing growth of the Church and the number of people attending the services
and activities of the Church, it has become increasingly clear that the Church needs to relocate
to a new buildlng. The Trustees have been working with the Council to explore options In
relation to the former Selly Oak Constituency Office which is located on Stirchley High Street.
This is a historical building in the centre of Stirchley but as it has been empty for a significant
period of tlme, the condition of the buildlng has deteriorated further and a substantlal level of
investment is required to bring it back into use.
The Trustees have appointed architects to support a proposed extension and refurbishment of
the building in order to bring it back into use for the benefit of the Church and the wider
community. The Trustees applied for planning permission in Autumn 2023 and were granted
planning permission in January 2024. The Trustees are continuing discussions with the Council
around the future of the building and hope to progress this further during the coming year.

"We're all about helping people love Jesus more and more"
Financial Review
The accounts have been drawn up on the accruals basls.
The total incoming resources for the year were £318,943 (2024: £263,748). Resources
expended in the year were £209,990 (2024: £232,590). This resulted In an overall surplus for
the year of £108,953 (2024: £31,158).
The Church's funding principally comes from gifts and donations made by members of the
congregation, together with associated gift aid. The Church provides support by grants to a
wide selection of individuals and organisations involved in Gospel ministry who have links with
the Church. Grants are considered by the Trustees and, where required, voted on by the Church
membership in accordance with relevant provisions of the Church Constitution.
Cash balances at the end of the year were £291,982 {2024: £192,664) of which £47,109
(2024: 48,803) was unrestricted, available for general purposes and not designated, or
restricted for any specific purpose.
Reserves Policy
the Church holds a General Fund which does not include funds
which have been designated by the Trustees ft)r a specific purpose.
The Trustees are committed to holding a level of reserves for General Funds that will cover
three months, costs, subject to sufficient funding being available to achieve this, while not
hampering the ongoing development of the activities of the Church. The precise level of
reserves to be attained is subject to regular review considering levels of activity and prevailing
circumstances.
The General Fund cash balance at 31 March 2025 was sllghtly less than three months, of costs.
The Trustees continue to monitor finances closely and anticipate that reserves will increase
above the target level during the forthcoming financial year.
these are accounted for separately; only accepted for projects or
activities sanctioned by the Trustees and in accordance with the objectives of the Church, and.
expenditure is not committed beyond the level of funds received. The Trustees do not therefore
have a specific reserves policy for restricted funds.
Tru5tees' Responsibilities
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees, annual report and the financial
statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United
Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Charity law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which
give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charity as at the balance sheet date
and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including income and expenditure,
for the financial year. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistentlyi
2. observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
3. make judgements and estimates that a￿ ￿asOnable and prudent.
4. stste whether the applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any
material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements. and
5. prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it 15 inappropriate to
presume that the charity will continue In operatlon.

"We're all about helping people love Jesus more and more"
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable
accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the
financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011 and the Charity (Accounts and Reports)
Regulations 2008. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and
hence for taking reasonable steps for the preventlon and detection of fraud and other
irregularities.

The charlty is a charilable incorporaled organisalion regSslered wSth lh& Charity Commission in England & Wales. The charills
registered numbèr and prlnclpal addrèss can be found on the Charity Informatlon p8ge.
2 Accounting Policies
Th8sg financial slalements are prepared on a golng concem basis. under thè historical cost convention.
These financlal slalements have been prepared In accordance wlth tho 'Statemenl of Recommended Pra¢ll¢e: Accounling and
Reporting by Charilles preparfng their accounts in accordance with the FSn8ndal R9porling Standard applicable in the UK and

paragraph. The charity has prepared these finan¢ial siatemerits in accordance wllh the new Charities SORP.. this departure from tho
2008 Regulatlons is bglievèd lo be n6ce8sary forthese financial slalemenls to give a Irue and falr vlew.
The principles adopted in the preparation of the financial stslements are set out below.
Goln concem
The trustees have assessed whether Ihe use of the golng ¢on¢em ba$ls is appropriate and have considered posslble events or
ndilion5 that might cast signlfi¢ant doubl on th6 ability ol the charity to continue as a golng co￿8rn. The trusts68 have made this
assassment for a period of at least one year from the dato of approval of thè financlal stat6ments. In particular the Iruslees havg
¢onsldered the chatlvs for￿Sts and projections and the possible implications should projected Income 8nd l or expendibjre vary
unexpectedly. The trustses have con¢luded that the￿ is a reasonable expg¢ts1ion that the charity has adequate resourc8S to

nan¢ial statomonts.
b) Income
Income including investment In￿Me Is recognlsgd In the periLxl In whlch the charity becomes enliued to receipt, the amount

has specified that the income Is to ￿ exponded in a fvture period.
Income from ¥Jonatlons and legacies includes:
1> Recoverable gKt aid. This is recognised when the relatsd donatlon Is rec&iv8d. Gift aid that has not been recovorgd by the
balance sheet dats Is in¢luded as a debtor.
111 The charity relies on volunteers lo cary out many of Its a¢tivities. However, in accordance with the SORP, the valLFe of Ih8S
services has not been In¢luded irh Ih8se financial statements as Ihey cannot bo roliably mèasured.
Income from cha￿￿ble a¢tlvlllas represents income receivable from goods, seryl¢es and facilities supplied In furtherance of the
Church's charitable objectives. It Includes In¢tsme from church retreats and other events and courses.
rbdilure
Expendilure. in¢luding irrecoverable VAT, is recognised when il is incurred or, if earlier, when a legal or constructive obligation for a
payn)ent arises provided thal il is probable that settlemonl Mll be required and the amount of Ihe obllgatlon can be mèasured
reliably.
The charity makes grants to other instilulions and individuals to furiheT Its charitable objectives. Grants payable are recognised as
conslruclive obligations arise, whi¢h is generally when the charity expresses a commilmenl lo the recipient that can be measured
reliably and thèn only lo the extenl Ihat any ¢ondilions associated Mlh the grant are outside ol Ihe control of the charity.
