Youmaychooseto include additional information, where relevant, about: • policies and procedures adopted for the induction and training of trustees; • the charity's organisational structure and any wider network with which the charity works; • relationship with any related parties; • trustees' considerationof major risks and the system and procedures to manage them.

Vale of Evesham Christian Centre has its own constitution and rules and at present is overseenbythe Synergy family of churches, with Mark Mumford, who now livesin Worcester, as our link representative. It should be noted that manyofthe ongoing dutiesofthe Trustees are delegated to the Leadership Team, whose work is overseen by the Trustees. Threeofthe Trustees are membersofthe Leadership Team. Good communication between the two is facilitated by this fact. The trustees held 6 full meetings during the year. There has been a need for a group of trustees, who are not conflicted regarding our partner charity Caring Hands inthe Vale, to meet regarding the building which we have helped to secure for their use. The two charities also had anemployee in common, but this has been resolved during the courseofthe year. Sheisnow only employed by Caring HandsintheVale~

During the year,wehave planned activities and expenditurein order to achieve our aims. Weintend that the broader aimsofthe church are achieved through our regular work and special events. Usually, we provide for the advancementofthe Christian Faith (Aim 1) through our Sunday services, weekday groups and children's activities. At the start of the year the church was meeting only online via Zoom. Now that the pandemic is reducedinrisk and intensity, we have been meetinginperson and most members have returned to meetinginperson, although we have been running Zoom during services for the benefitofthose who could not attend or felt concerned about attending. Our children's workona Sunday is now weekly, but the other children's and Youth Work has not resumed. Neither has the toddler group. This has mainly been a result of a lack of volunteers to lead these groups. We have supported other organisations financially to achieve Aim 3 above - notably Open Doors worldwideinsupportofthe persecuted church and a familyoffourinIndia. Our work with thoseinneed (Aim 2 above) is largely carried out through the workofCaring Hands. Now that the church has been meetinginperson again, Caring Hands has returned to using the Lighthouse building for most things, althoughin2022-23 building work has started and Caring Hands has had to move its entire operation back to the church building for the durationofthis. Funding and donations have been maintained and even increased during this time for Caring Hands. Inaddition, we have donated to local and national agencies to support their work. Open Doors provides practical help to thosein need as well as evangelistic outreach and training for church leaders. The trustees confirm they have referred to the Charity Commission's guidanceonpublic benefit when reviewing the Charity's aims and objectives, carrying out activities during the year and planning for the future.	3.to advance education and carry out other charitable purposesinthe United Kingdom and/or other partsofthe world providing that they are notinconflict with1.

Youmay chooseto include further statements, where relevant, about: • policyon grantmaking; • policy programme related investment; • contribution made by volunteers.

The charity relies heavilyonmany of its trustees, leadership team, members and also non-members for their time spentona wide range of activities including administration, catering, cleaning, counselling, finance, leadership, maintenance, pastoral matters, PA system operation, preaching, security, worship group, youth and children's work. The functions of volunteers have changed significantly during the pandemic, butwehave very much needed their input on a daily basis to provide pastoral care, practical assistance with IT and online activities generally. These activities have largely returned to the pre-pandemic norms, although a few people have not returned for in-person services and other activities.

Section D Summaryofthe mainachievements ofthe charity duringthe year

Achievements and performance

Advancing the Christian Faith Worship and Prayer Over the courseofthe year the church has sought to fulfil these purposes through weekly Sunday worship, weekday Small Groups for Bible study, worship, prayer and fellowship. We have had new members join the church and some new Christians. Prayer Meetings have continued to be online despite the possibility of meetinginperson. Attendance at the online meetings has continued to exceed the pre-pandemic attendance. Wehave tried to make sure that the services always welcome children and have a children's slotinthe main services. Outreach Although church members have been involvedinoutreach individually, there has been little outreach this year. We plan to expand this much moreinthe next financial year. Children and Youth Work Wehave been unable to continue our outreach youth work during the pandemic and without a specified worker,weare awareofa big gapinthis area. It isanaspectofchurch work which we are hoping to reinstate very soon.

Section D SectionE Briefstatementof thecharity'spolicy onreserves	Achievements and performance
	AssistingandRelieving ThoseinNeed As previously mentioned, the main wayinwhich we provide for thoseinneed is through Caring Hands. The work of Caring Hands (the food-bank, diner (twice weekly), clothes bank, baby bank, homeless resources bank), is separated formally from the church as a separate CIO. Caring Hands remains very much partofour work, andwesupport Caring Hands through provisionofthe building for storage and daily operational use, help with the salary ofthe Community Worker, practical help through provisionofat least 5 volunteers and providing Trustees for its oversight. We have enabled the purchaseofa new building to accommodate the workofCaring Hands, which has outgrown the present building, and encroaches on the activitiesofthe church, especially at Harvest and Christmas time. This will allow the work to grow and develop and provide alternative venues for activities, while allowing the church building to be used for more events mid-week. The Trustees have taken legal advice about conflict of interest between the two charities and have followed the advice with great care. Advancing Educationandcarrying out Other Charitable Purposes As mentioned above, this work is largely carried out by Open Doors and a familyincentral India teaching midwifery and English as a foreign language. We have continued to support these causes financially and prayerfully.
	Financialreview
	The trustees consider that due to the known level of monthly recurring income the minimum funds required are the amount required to continue the activities of the church for three months. This is subject to review. This year the income has again exceeded expenditure and we have the legacy money which isno longer needed to buy the extra building for Caring Handsinthe Vale. This is in deposit accounts aswedecide how to use itinthe longer term.Weare now looking to employ a Pastor full-time and the reserves give us confidence that we will be able to sustain that employment evenifgiving does not increase to cover the salaryin the short-term. We have no employees now as a church, since the Community Worker has been employed solely by Caring Hands since1stJanuary 2022. Unrestricted funds at31March 2022 were £288,919 and expenditure for three months is estimated as £10,500 or £19,500 to include the salary for a pastor. The present leveloffunds therefore exceeds the minimum level.
