## **A Foundation Charitable Incorporated Organisation.  Charity Number 1163899** 

## _**Trustees’ Annual Report 2025**_ 

## **Objectives and activities** 

Dorchester Family Church has the following objectives; 

- To promote the Christian Faith within the United Kingdom and overseas. 

- To promote charitable purposes for the benefit of the inhabitants of Dorchester and elsewhere in Dorset including the relief of those in poverty or in need because of youth, age, ill health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage and the advancement of religious and secular education. 

The trustees are committed to ensuring that as many people as possible can worship at our meetings and participate in our activities.  We supported the provision of these activities by employing a full time Lead Elder/Pastor, a full time Children and Youth Lead Worker, a part time Elder and a part time Office Manager. 

We have a regular Sunday morning meeting at the Thomas Hardye School theatre and the sixth form centre between 1000am and 1130am, which are open to the public.  These meetings enable everyone to worship God, pray and listen to Bible teaching.  In parallel, using the sixth form centre, we provide activities for children.  These are divided into age-based groups (based on school years).  They are; 

**“Live Wires”** (0 – 3): This is a fully supervised crèche program for babies. It includes interactive bible based activities including stories, games, craft & prizes. 

**“Bright Sparks”** (4 – 8):  This group aims to communicate the love of God to a generation, and empower them to make a positive difference in the world. We promote acceptance of others and nurture a healthy self-image. The activities include; games, singing, drama, Bible teaching, craft and small group work. 

“ **Fusion”** (9-12): This runs as a small group format and aims to help children deal with the pressures of teenage life. This involves discussion, games, drama etc. The group also has some mid-week meetings. 

“ **Ignite”** (13-18):  Meets Sundays at The Thomas Hardye School to discuss life and being an older teen, and also mid week to give our young people a safe place to air their views and values. 

1 



We provide a range of mid-week activities.  These include; 

**“Connect Groups”** : Smaller groups that meet in people’s homes across Dorchester and the surrounding villages. The aim of these groups is to build relationships and to serve others in the community through team-based initiatives.  Attendance is usually on a geographic basis, but groups are open to all. 

“ **Ignite Connect Group”** : As indicated above, this is a mid-week group for fourteen to eighteen year olds, its aim is to discuss issues that relate to this particular age group and to give our young people a safe place to air their views. 

“ **Live Wires Playgroup”** : This is a mid-week group that meets weekly at the Dorchester Youth Centre for parents with young pre-school age children, it allows the toddlers to play together, while the parents or carers have a cup of tea and cake and discuss the joys of parenting! 

**“Cameo Group”:** a mid-week ministry for women, engaging in a range of activities. 

**“Men’s Group”:** a mid-week/weekend ministry for men that also engages in a range of activities. 

“ **Worship Team Night”** :  This group meets once a week.  Sometimes this involves having a meal together or playing music together. 

From time to time we also provide the following course format activities, available to all, to assist in achieving our objectives; 

“ **The Alpha Course”** : We run this course on a regular basis in the evenings or on Sunday mornings over a 10-week period. The course involves a meal, a talk and a discussion time. The aim of Alpha is to provide an opportunity for people within the community to explore the Christian faith in a relaxed atmosphere. 

“ **Getting Connected Course”** :  When people have done Alpha and are often attending regularly on a Sunday, a course is run once a week over a number of weeks to let them know exactly what it means to belong to the Church. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

During the period January to December 2025 attendance at our events, in particular the Sunday morning meetings, has continued to increase slightly from 2024, with a typical meeting attracting 250 people.  The attendance numbers mean that we have to continue to consider other options as the venue is nearing capacity. During this period we have not been able to find venues with a greater capacity, and so we anticipate considering a multiple Sunday meeting 

2 



approach in relation to our current venue, and to further consider a property purchase as an alternative.  This approach will be reflected in our financial balances.  With the permission of the school authorities, we had been able to continue our use of a mobile baptismal pool and have been able to conduct full immersion baptism for those seeking it. 

We have ensured our venue is accessible on a step free basis, has appropriate sound relays and well-placed screens for reading accessibility. 

In addition, we have run outdoor church meetings, sporting and family gathering events and have also joined with other churches in shared worship and teaching provision.  The principal event in this calendar was the Commission Festival. 

We have been pleased to actively support the Dorchester food bank and Dorchester Family Support as part of our work delivering outcomes in line with our charitable objectives. 

## **Safeguarding** 

We continue to operate our safeguarding policy, which is reviewed each April as a minimum. We operate a system of Disclosure and Barring Service Checks, through “31:8”. 

## **Financial Information** 

Our attached financial report provides details of our financial activities.  At the close of this reporting period (31/12/2025) we had total unrestricted funds amounting to £279,962.  This represents an increase of £38,609 on the total at the end of 2024. 

This year we continued to use our funds to give to a range of groups and projects, in accordance with our objectives.  The details are in our accounts report. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

It is our policy to hold in reserves the equivalent of six months’ general running costs including salaries. It is also our policy to hold reserves to allow for the renewal of equipment and assets when this becomes necessary; to reserve for potential changes in staff and to reserve for any planned special events or projects.  At the end of 2024 the sum identified for these purposes amounts to £150,000.
