The senior spiritual leader automatically will be appointed as an ex-officio Charty Trustee for as long as he or she holds that offi￿. At the end of a temi of three years, any person retiring as a Charity Trustee is eligible for reappointment.

The objectives of the Charity are as follows: The advancement of the Christian Faith and the worship of God in Loughborough, LeI￿stershire and elsewhere. The relief of persons in need, hardship or distress or who are aged or sick. The advancement of education on the basis of Christian principles. In shaping our objectives and planning our activities, the Trustees have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit, including the guidance 'public benefit: running a Charity (PB2)' and the activities we provide fully reflect the purposes for which the CIO was set up. The vision Statement is: Following Jesus, Fomping communities. Transftin77ing the wortd. The values that underpin our Church famity are.. We see church as a vibrant community living as a loving family. Our vision is that everyone will understand God's purpose, be passionately in love with Jesus and live authentic Spirit-filled lives. We believe some of the greatest resources people have are their dreams and gifts. We believe these come from God and are His way of expressing His love for us, involving us in His plan for the whole of treation. We are committed to helping people discover and thrive in their dreams and the use of their gifts. We desire to cultivate an environment of faith, hope and love, and express these through our joy, generosity. care and sense of adventure. 61Page KtNG S CHURCH LOUGHBOROUGH TRusfEES' ANNUAL REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 We encourage everyone to live a Jesus-centred lrfe and, as His apprentices, respond to His commission in the context of community. We want to help people find a pla￿ to belong and experience the powerful effect of God's love and grace. We are motivated in every activity we do as a church family by Jesus, love, life and mission. This shapes our very existence, knowing that just as the Father sent Him so Jesus sends us. The Charity's values therefore are: Going Demonstrating a complete commitment to discipleship - both to be discipled and to disciple o Prioritising an intentionally missional way of lrfe A commitment to hospitality and servanthood A commitment to 'sowing' people into communities, cities and nations Developing ways of blessing people through our creative generosity Growing In love with God and people In our Christ-likeness In lifestyle-based knowledge of God's nature and purpose In the dreams and grfts God has put in us In our ability to serve and prioritise other people and God's will over our own o In our relationships through accountability with each other and various gifts as revealed in Ephesians chapter 4 In numbers and influen KING'S CHURCH LOUGHBOROUGH TRusfEES' ANNUAL REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 ACHIEVEMENTSAND PERFORMANCE Following the hugety signsficant challenges and changes that both the CIO and congregation faced last year, the Board of Trustees ft)cus this year was three-fold." 1) Development of faith and worship A small number of people indicated the desire to gather as a 'house church,, which is how the congregation first started in the 1980's. A focus on small groupslhouse churches as a method for growing numbers of people and the ongoing spiritual fomiation of members has been key both historically and in more re￿nt times. Therefore, key aspects of work have been to re-group members and set into pla essential rhythms and routines in estsblishing a house-church or 'disciple-making community, to help promote faith and engage people in worship. 2) Small World Nursery Unfortunately, after pursuing a number of unsuc￿Ssful avenues in the attempt to keep the Small World Nursery open. it closed in July 2023. Afirm of employment law experts, previously appointed by the CIO, were contracted to guide the redundancy process. Thankfully, the majority of staff went straight into other employment. After nearly 30 years of the nursery playing an important role within the community, its regrettable closure evoked many fond memories shared by adults, who as children had attended the nursery, some of whom their own children were now little leamers there. However, the overall feel was one of huge loss and sadness. 3) Strategic planning for the future of the CIO and its assets Due to the huge reduction in income anrj inability to generate other income streams to fund the upkeep of the building, the sale prO￿sS was initiated. Following the Charty Commission's legal requirements of the Charities Act 2011, a Disposal Report was prodU￿d and followed by reputable local property consultants, Mather Jamie. Due to its size and town ￿ntre location the SchofEld Centre sold quickly, 81Page KING'S CHURCH LOUGHBOROUGH TRusfEES' ANNUAL REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 though completion took longer than the initial timescale outlined. Reserves, kept in line with King's Church CIO policies, came into play. enabling the CIO to keep functioning. Trustees agreed that all physical assets no longer needed by the CIO, due to down-sizing the churches activities and the Small World Nursery's closure, should be either sold or donated to other charities with similar objectives. Extra Trustee meetings were held to discuss strategic plans created to ensure the HUB Project was able to continue functioning. The sale agreement, which made allowance for the HUB to lease the Schofield Centre basement for up to three years, facilitated the ongoing functioning of the HUB Project. This arrangement provided the necessary time to find an altsrnative venue. not only for the HUB Project but for future church gatherings. After viewing a few potential properties and weighing up the variables, the lease for the most suitable venue was signed in August 2023. It had previously been used as nightclub and therefore needed a significant amount of work to make it suitable to be used as a communty centre for a WKle range of people with varying needs. Through the incredible hard work of the dedicated staff and volunteers the doors opened in February 2024. Having use of the Schofield Centre basement (the HUB Project's original headquarters) until the opening of the new propety meant that the move was seamless, with the HUB only closing for two weeks. The HUB Project manager and staff team skilfully involved stakeholders into the renovation prO￿sS of the new venue. using it as a narrative for the work of the Project itself. Pictures of each stage and plans of how the new propety would be used were shared. with the views and opinions of stakeholders solicited and taken on-board. The HUB Project The demand for the HUB Project services continued to grow as the national cost-of- living crisis emerged following the pandemic. KING S CHURCH LOUGHBOROUGH TRusfEES' ANNUAL REPORT (continued) FOR TrIE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 In November we were awarded a matched funding grant from the National Lottery Comrnunty Fund of £240,000. This funding began in January 2024 and will run for 3 years. We moved into the new building at the beginning of February and had an official 'launch week, at the end of that month. Receiving funding from the Lottery meant we could employ more members of staff to work alongside and support our volunteers. Staffing numbers increased from 4 to 11 , mostly part-time and working in the various projects within the HUB Project. Volunteer numbers fluctuate according to people's availabilty and at the end of March were around 14 people across all the projects. Working hours were extended to accommodats the demand and increase in membership numbers. Membership at the end of March 2024 stood at 495 households overall with the monthly footfall in March approximately 510 adults and 200 children. These numbers DO NOT include pantry, café and boutique users. Our support of local asylum seekers also continued to develop as we provided communty space and clothing for a number of families and individuals from various nations. The Neurodiverse support group continues to provide peer support and outside specialist help where appropriate. The number of members for this group stands at 197. The group meets twice a month and each meeting averages between 6 and 14 people. 4 training course were run during this period, and approximately 10 people receNed help with completing fonns and applications for Education and Health Care Plans (EHCPS) and Disabilty Living Allowan￿ (DLA). IOIPage KING'S CHURCH LOUGHBOROUGH TRusfEES' ANNUAL REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 International Mission A small number of previous members of King's Church were sponsoring children in the Bangalore Orphanage, India. This support continued despite the sponsors moving to different congregations. Relationships with the church in Zambia have continued to develop with a focus on working with local, regional and national leaders to develop not only the building project but also nurturing young and emerging leaders. The development of the communty facility for the ZOE Project is a significant investment into a small yet developing town and as such has elicited the favourable attention from local tribal and civic authorities which in tum has enabled the work in Lufwanyama to impact yet more people living there. Such relationships with authorities are hugely significant, and have built on trust gained as a result of the sustained hard work by the ZOE Project leaders, facilitated by the support we have provided for over twenty years, and more so during 2023-2024. Volunteern The house4hurch and HUB Project would struggle to function without the voluntary participation and the good will of its members. Engagement of volunteers in the transformation of the new venue for the HUB Project created a sense of ownership for members and sped up the renovation process. One volunteer in particular that invested his time and abilities was Alan Tilley, a kind, unassuming and skilled man that deserves special mention, without whom the restoration work would have cost considerably more have taken much longer. We are deeply appreciative for the many many hours he dedicated to the project. Where voluntary workers are responsible for children or vulnerable adults, each volunteer's history is first checked with the Disclosure and Barring Service before starting. I11Pa￿e KING S CHURCH LOUGHBOROUGH TRUSFEES, ANNUAL REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Diversity and Inclusion Within the HUB Project, we have adapted the ServI￿S to ty and meet the needs of a wide variety of different service users through regular conversation with them. We are conscious that there are a range of religions and cultures represented amongst our HUB community and are mindful of certain times of the year such as Eid and Ramadan and ask what we can offer that would be useful during these times such as extra oil for cooking which is usually a limited item. In the community pantry we keep halal meat separate for those that require it as well as stock spices and tinned items such as lentils and chickpeas as these are regularly requested items. We also make sure we have frozen fish and vegetarianlvegan items kept aside so that we can always offer something rf we don't have halal meat. We get a range of different cultural foods from Fareshare such as Polish meats, cheeses and snack foods. One of the schools that we work closely with has a very diverse cultural mix of families and is situated in what is considered to be one of the financially poorest areas in Charnwood. The school have referred several families to us and we have attended school open days to promote the HUB and invite people to visit. Amongst our team and community members we have a number of people of various identities such as trans and non-binary. One of our non-binary volunteers has specifically said that it has felt a welcoming and safe space to come and volunteer. We have made the Spa￿ as accessible as possible for wheelchairs, frames and pushchairs; we have a lift to aC￿sS the HUB and we have widened doorways and made sure that all access routes and communal areas are clear and spacious. 121Page KING'S CHURCH LOUGHBOROUGH TRusfEES' ANNUAL REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 We are conscious of our growing neurodiverse communty and make sure to keep to our appointment slots, not overcrowding the pantry and communal areas or making the space too loud, all of which provides a calm and not over stimulating environment. Safeguarding The Trustees take their responsibilities for safeguarding very seriously and continue to review the safeguarding procedures on a regular basis at Trustee meetings. Safeguarding personnel are adequately trained and are supported by the leadership team. Safeguarding for Small World Nursery was reviewed termly and annually by Trustees in line with OFSTED requirements. Plans for 2024 and beyond Advanclng Faith and the Worshlp of God Building on the initial stages of meeting as a 'house church'fdisciple-making community, we have identified a number of rhythms, routines and resources to help as we gather with the intention to grow in faith and help facilitate the worship of God. We will also use the HUB Project building for public acts of w0ry6hip, prayer, teaching workshops and shared meals. Partnerships Working with other groups, charities and church networks for public benefit has, and continues to be, key. Where there is a natural overlap with another organisation's aims, or existing or potential relationships with leaders of groups, we continue to explore how we can partner: either in short or long-tem agreements, to further the work we engage with to fulfil our aims. Name change for the CIO A change of name for the CIO is permitted within the scope of the Agreed Articles and will be pursued this coming year. 131 KING S CHURCH LOUGHBOROUGH TRusfEES' ANNUAL REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 FINANCIAL REVIEW King's Church Loughborough is dependent on donations, fees and charges to meet its operational costs. An annual budget is prepared, and aclual results against this budget are reviewed quarterly by the Trustees. There are a number of factors affecting the Tithes and Offerings, including people moving away and the current economic climate, along with people passing away. Due to the regular review process any reduction in planned Tithes and Offerings mean that budgets are able to be adjusted as ne￿SSary in order to safeguard the Charty and its reserves. At 31 March 2024 the Charity had total reserves of £666,907 (2023: £393,767), of which £3,000 (2023: £2,628) was restricted, with cash at bank and in hand of £725,317 (2023: £125,798). The current cash reserves are within the allowable boundaries identified in the reserves policy. Reservos Pollcy The policy for holding some cash on reserve has been made for the following reasons,. 1. To accommodate the monthly fluctuations in income and expenditure e.g. the quarterty gift aid tax claim and the seasonal income from the Small Workl Nursery. 2. To provide a buffer in the event of a significant loss of church membership and associated giving, from whom about 60¥0 of the total Trust income is generated. 3. To enable continuity of the Small World Nursery in the event of a sudden reduction in child attendance (30 % of total income). 4. To provide immediate funds to support the implementation of new projects in furtherance of the trust's aims as and when the opportunty arises. 141Page KING'S CHURCH LOUGHBOROUGH TRusfEES' ANNUAL REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Level of Reserves The Trustees feel that in order to fulfil the requirements noted in points 1 to 4 above, it would be approprtate to hold a minimum cash reserve of 1 month's total Trust expenditure and a maximum cash reserve of 3 month's total Trust expenditure. In 202312024 the total Trust expenditure was approximately £738.792 (2023: £521,809). This would equate to a minimum cash reserve of £61,566 (2023.. £43,484) and a maximum cash reserve of £184,698 (2023: £130,452). At the end of the 2023r2024 financial year the cash reserves included an amount of prepaid income of £8,957 (2023.. £40,394) for the first quarter of the next financial year, and dedicated funds of £1,081, mainly in relatiorb to the development and opening of Cupboard on the Comer. Deducting these from the cash reserrfes total, the remaining cash reserves were approximately 2.8 times (2023: 2.0) above the minimum cash reseNe, which the Trustees consider adequate. Annual budgets are prepared in advance of each financial year, such that expected income and expenditure are balanced, thereby providing no net increase or decrease in the amount of cash reseNes outside of the policy. The level of reserve5 will be monitored on a regular basis at the normal Trustees, meetings. Adjustsnents to budgets will be made in advance of each financial year to ensure that the trust maintains its reserves within the prescribed limits. The Reserves Policy will be reviewed annually in association with the production of annual accounts and changes to the reserves policy will be agreed by Trustees and minuted accordingly. 151Page KING S CHURCH LOUGHBOROUGH TRUSfEES' ANNUAL REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 TRUSTEES. RESPONSIBILITIES IN RELATION TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Law applicable to charities in England and Wales require the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the financial activities of the Charity during the year, and of the financial position of the Charity at the end of the year. In preparing financial ststements giving a true and fair view, the Trustees should follow best practice and: Select suitsble accounting policies and then apply them consistently; Make sound judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and State whether applicable accounting standards and Statements of Recommended Practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; Prepare the financial ststements on the going concern basis unless it is appropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in operation. The Trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the Charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with applicable regulations. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
