The trustees ensure that church Servi￿ are continually freely open to anyone who wishes to attend, and actively encourage attendan￿. Social responsilylty and care will continue to be promoted among regular attendees. specifically expanding on the Christian principle of loving one's neighbour in conduct and practice. This benefits the social statu5 of the local communty and general public. There is nothing in the purposes which should lead to hami, but safeguards are in pla￿ (e.g. DBS checks for volunteers workn.ng wrth chisdren's groups). Decisions over who benefrts from the church are guided by the Christian faith itself, which indudes evangelism as a core element. It is therefore seff-defining to L¥ing benefft to people beyond the immediate local church. The Constituiion has clear guKlelines on confficts of interest and Fersonal beneffts (using 5xoforma wording in the model from the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches IFIEC)). The church does operate a membership for vthich there is no charge,. membership is bound to agreement to the Basis of Farth in the Constitution. As such, members are bound also to the advan￿ment of the Christian fa¢th and to the fijlfilment of the purposes of the church, to the benefit of the general public in the communty. All servi￿$ and meets.ngs are clearly publicised outside the building, in lrterature. and online. The facilrties are locked when unoccupied. All seNices and activities are open to the pu￿1C. From time to time, disruptive or threatening individuals may be barred from enty for the protertion of others.

Ilthen unable to meet in person due to loGkdown restrictions, sep4ices were streamed online. A special online Christmas Servi￿ included a nativity perfomied and recorded at the local primary school. which induded a Christmas message from the head teacher.

In lieu, two of the leaders continued to hold live singing times on Fa￿boOk. interacting wtth parents, carers and children in real time. This develoFtd fijrther by provKling crafts and activities to try to maintain links in the community. A number of eldet1y adults also watched these live events and tEnefftted greaty from sense of comrnunity they provided durir¥J isolalion.
