Public Benefit, Achievements and Performance
The Trustees have given due regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on 'publi¢
benefit..
This past year we have seen many good things happening al Heysham Church of the Nazarene. We
havc startcd a Sunday school for the children. We have had a couple of Childr￿ come along to
Sunday school from the youth club and at Christmas the majority of the youth club took part in our
nativity production with many of the children's families coming along to watch, we have also started
a house prayer group that meets fortnightly which has only recently started but has been going really
well over the last lew weeks. We have seen a slight numerical growth in the congregation.
On Good Friday we carried a 6 foot cross out into the community and had a communion service by
the bay.
We have continued our free bacon butty moming on the last Saturday of th¢ month and it ¢ontinue5
to bring people in from the local community. Also in summer we had a Church barbecue which went
really well and was an opportunity to invite families from the youth club and members of the local
community.
We had a men.s snooker night that was a good lime for the ￿en to hav¢ some fellowship together.
At harvest we had live music and a pie supper to celebrate and a fantastic donation of food was
donated and distributed to the local food bank.
Al Chrislm&s ihe congregalion and youlh club donated 26 shoeboxes for the Sanwltans purse app¢al
and toys were donated to the local salvatioll arniy big toy appeal.
We have enjoycd being part of the catalyst network which has allowed us to join together with other
churches across the northwest of England. It has been good meeting togelher and discussing ide&s
and being able to support one another.
The charity has suificient funds to meet its liabilities.
