|||Over the past year, the MHOP leadership||||
|||team has focused on refining staff roles and|||||
|Summary ofthe main<br>achievements ofthe charity,|P41|responsibilities in response to a significant<br>reduction in staffing hours following the||||
|identifying the difference the|||leadership transition. Despite these||||
|charity's work has made to||changes, we have continued to deliver||||
|the circumstances of its||meaningful activity, including hosting a||||
|beneficiaries and anywider<br>benefits to societyas a<br>whole.||<br>||number ofprayer meetings in collaboration<br>with various Christian charities across<br>Manchester. These gatherings have<br>provided mutual encouragement and||||<br>||
||||spiritual support for Christian work in the<br>region.||||
|||A highlight ofthe yearwas an extended||||
|||worship and prayer event, which brought||||
|||together approximately 100 Christians from||||
|||diverse backgrounds across the city. This||||
|||event served as a powerful expression of||||
|||unity and shared faith.||||
|||We also welcomed two new trustees to our||||
|||board, who have brought valuable support||||
|||and insight during a season ofsignificant<br>transition.|||||
|||At the beginning of2025, MHOP concluded|||||
|||its partnership with the Message Trust.||||
|||Following mutual agreement, both parties||||
|||recognised that the collaboration had||||
|||reached its natural end and that moving on|||||
||||would be beneficial.As a result, MHOP will|||||
|||now be operating from two new locations||||
|||movingforward.||||
