The Church Elders, who, apart from the Church Pastor, are also the charity trustees, are responsible for the overall management and control of the The Cellar Church Charity and meet at least four times a year. The work of implementing most of their objectives is carried out by the Cellar Church Covenant Partners, who meet at least two times a year and less formally on a weekly basis. The Covenant Partners work under the oversight of the Church Elders.
The Church Elders and Church Pastor determine the general spiritual teaching, pastoral care requirements and Vision for the Church. The day to day running of the Church is delegated to the Church Pastor and Church Elders, supported by Covenant Partners and their team members. Covenant Partners means the body of believers in the locality of Ellesmere, Shropshire who have signed a current form of commitment being known as The Cellar Church.
The Church Pastor and Church Elders undertakes the key leadership role overseeing biblical teaching, pastoral and administrative functions. The day to day running of The Cellar Church, including Junior Church, is undertaken within the Church Constitution approved by the Church Elders which provide for only significant expenditure decisions and major capital projects to be referred to the Covenant Partners for prior approval. All trustees give of their time freely and no remuneration or expenses were paid in the year.
Section C Objectives and activities

| Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit) |
The Church's activities include weekly main worship services, men's and women's ministries, prayer ministries, life groups (worship prayer and study groups). In the past, the charity has held social evenings to the local community in way of quiz nights or community meals, which includes gospel messages and also youth nights where local young people can socialise and engage in different activities and seek guidance in the Christian faith. The Cellar Church offer a range of services during the week and over the course of the year that our community fnd both benefcial and spiritually fulflling. For example, our prayer meetings provide an intimate and refective environment for worship whilst opportunities are provided for people to engage in more outgoing worship such as that provided by the regular morning and occasional evening service. All are welcome to attend our regular services. At present there are around 80 regular attenders, with approximately 50 of whom are Covenant Partners. As well as our regular services, we enable our community to celebrate and thank God at the milestones of the journey through life. Through baptism we publicly thank God for the gift of salvation, in dedication services we thank God for the gift of life and through funeral services friends and family express their grief and give thanks for the life which is now complete in this world and to commend the person into God's keeping. These activities are benefcial because they provide spiritual and religious worship for the local communities in Ellesmere, Shropshire as well as supporting community outreach projects. The Trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public beneft. |
