Achievements and Performance

|---|---|---|
| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | Despite its small size and limited resources, James Street Church has during 2021 continued its tradition established over 50 years of blessing the people of the surrounding Golden Grove estate. Alison Strudwick continues to be a part time Pastor for the church. Alison spends three days a week organising the activities of the church and providing pastoral support to individuals as needed. We have continued to provide pastoral support and encouragement to anyone who came to our church, either on-line or through the weekly food bank. We support the spiritual needs of the estate through offering prayer and counsel as appropriate to anyone who comes to us. Around 35 people come regularly to our Sunday meetings including a number from the adjacent sheltered housing where we also have volunteer visitors. We have continued to provide online services and helped many of our older vulnerable citizens to access these through their phones or tablets. Although the immediate covid-19 crisis has eased, we continue to see a high demand for help for impoverished families on our estate. We continue to support up to 50 families with food donations through our Thursday food bank. We have continued to organise outdoor celebrations of Christmas and Easter with dramatic presentations and community singing. Our children's clubs have begun meeting again in person. We provide games, crafts and a simple snack for all of the children who attend. We have also organised a number of trips to local landmarks which gets the children off the estate. |

| Achievements against objectives set |
Para 1.41 | The trustees wish to record our profound gratitude to Alison Strudwick, our pastor,has continued to provide leadership and pastoral support to the community. As a result of Alpha and other initiatives we have seen a number of new members who have appreciated pastoral support and someone to talk to about various issues in their lives. |

| Performance of fundraising activities against objectives set |
Para 1.41 | We are encouraging the majority of our members to rearrange their giving to give a regular gift to James Street through Stewardship Services who will handle direct debits and charitable tax recovery on our behalf. (https://www.stewardship.org.uk/) |

Financial Review
| Financial Review | ||
|---|---|---|
| Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period |
Para 1.21 | Our income has dropped significantly following the covid crisis due to the lack of car park and room bookings. This is unlikely to return in the immediate future due to more people working from home. Our expenditure has dropped so, for now, we remain in a viable position although we are eating into our reserves. The trustees are aware of this trend and are considering how we can raise additional funds to sustain our charitable activities. The trustees expect that we will have to plan some significant investment into more permanent roof repairs in the coming period. However we have received considerable ‘at cost’ help from a local builder in addressing the immediate leaking roof issues. |
| Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held |
Para 1.22 | The charity’s policy is to maintain sufficient reserves to cover 6 months of operational expenditure. From time to time we may dip into these reserves to cover emergency building or maintenance costs. Separately we have established a building fund to cover ongoing maintenance and improvements to the building. |
| Amount of reserves held | Para 1.22 | £50,267 |

| The charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising) |
Para 1.47 | The charity’s principle source of income is the faithful giving to the church members who although mostly retired, continue to support the ongoing operational costs of the charity. We have also received some more substantial gifts (or gifts in kind) from individuals who wish to support the youth work. Where appropriate in addition we seek grants from relevant awarding bodies to help fund our charitable activities. |
| Investment policy and objectives including any social investment policy adopted |
Para 1.46 | We have no long-term investments and hold our cash reserves in public banking deposit accounts. We have no specific policy on social investment. |
| A description of the principal risks facing the charity |
Para 1.46 | The principle risks facing the charity are 1. The ageing church membership. Although our members are very faithful and active in their support, we recognise that they are getting older and several have passed away this year. However, we also recognise that this church has always had a similar age profile and so we trust that new members will join us as others depart. 2. Ageing building in need of refurbishment Our building is an asset which continues to serve us well. We continue to sustain its usefulness through sustaining repairs and decoration. However, we recognise that as it gets older, more major work may become necessary for which the charity has no immediate provision. |

| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | Despite its small size and limited resources, James Street Church has during 2021 continued its tradition established over 50 years of blessing the people of the surrounding Golden Grove estate. Alison Strudwick continues to be a part time Pastor for the church. Alison spends three days a week organising the activities of the church and providing pastoral support to individuals as needed. We have continued to provide pastoral support and encouragement to anyone who came to our church, either on-line or through the weekly food bank. We support the spiritual needs of the estate through offering prayer and counsel as appropriate to anyone who comes to us. Around 35 people come regularly to our Sunday meetings including a number from the adjacent sheltered housing where we also have volunteer visitors. We have continued to provide online services and helped many of our older vulnerable citizens to access these through their phones or tablets. Although the immediate covid-19 crisis has eased, we continue to see a high demand for help for impoverished families on our estate. We continue to support up to 50 families with food donations through our Thursday food bank. We have continued to organise outdoor celebrations of Christmas and Easter with dramatic presentations and community singing. Our children's clubs have begun meeting again in person. We provide games, crafts and a simple snack for all of the children who attend. We have also organised a number of trips to local landmarks which gets the children off the estate. |

Our expenditure has dropped so, for now, we remain in a viable position although we are eating into our reserves.

| The charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising) |
Para 1.47 | The charity’s principle source of income is the faithful giving to the church members who although mostly retired, continue to support the ongoing operational costs of the charity. We have also received some more substantial gifts (or gifts in kind) from individuals who wish to support the youth work. Where appropriate in addition we seek grants from relevant awarding bodies to help fund our charitable activities. |
| Investment policy and objectives including any social investment policy adopted |
Para 1.46 | We have no long-term investments and hold our cash reserves in public banking deposit accounts. We have no specific policy on social investment. |
| A description of the principal risks facing the charity |
Para 1.46 | The principle risks facing the charity are 1. The ageing church membership. Although our members are very faithful and active in their support, we recognise that they are getting older and several have passed away this year. However, we also recognise that this church has always had a similar age profile and so we trust that new members will join us as others depart. 2. Ageing building in need of refurbishment Our building is an asset which continues to serve us well. We continue to sustain its usefulness through sustaining repairs and decoration. However, we recognise that as it gets older, more major work may become necessary for which the charity has no immediate provision. |
