We currently have five trustees, two of whom are employees of the charity. Trustees have the power to appoint new trustees. The trustees met three times this year via video call. ## Objects of the charity Trinity Church Scarborough exists to advance the Christian Faith in accordance with its Basis of Faith, primarily, but not exclusively, within Scarborough and the surrounding neighbourhood; and other charitable purposes that, in the opinion of the charity trustees, put into practice the Christian faith. Trinity Church Scarborough launched on 14th May 2017. It’s Sunday and midweek meetings are open to the public and have been attended by hundreds of people over the course of this current period. ## Achievements and performance for the year May 23 to April 24 As another year ends for Trinity, we look back with considerable gratefulness to God and pleasure that our numbers continue to grow to the extent that we have had to buy more chairs. A normal Sunday service sees more than 210 adults and children attending – in addition to our live streaming options. Our viewers range from all parts of the UK. Numbers are at a level where the Leadership Team are now reviewing options as to what to do as we expect numbers to continue to grow. As a town Scarborough attracts many different nationalities, and we count nationals from UK, South Africa, Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Ghana, Poland, Iran, and Uganda in our congregation – with a consequent growth in age and backgrounds. March 2024 saw our first ever Confirmation Service with Bishop Andy Lines presiding. We hope that this will become a regular event. The Babysongs and Playsongs events are proving to be very popular, and attendance is very high. It is a pleasure to see the Mums and their children enjoying the music and hearing of Bible stories – and we are now starting to see Mums who attended one of the children’s events now coming to our Sunday worship. Plans are in place for the appointment of an Integration Minister who will assume responsibility for the welcome and induction of new members to Trinity as this is seen to be a major area of need. Additionally, our Youth programme, named Impact, is going from strength to strength and we are currently in discussion with one individual to join the team as Youth Minister. This is also planned for the coming year. The small group network (Lifegroup) goes from strength to strength with new groups having started in the last year in outlying areas to Scarborough. This has proven to be a very successful way of growing bible knowledge within the congregation. The Men’s Thursday Morning Bible Study is now more popular than ever. Similarly, the Women’s bible study meets weekly on a Tuesday and more than 30 ladies attend. In addition, we have introduced a Men’s Breakfast who meet monthly, and a guest speaker is invited. This is growing in popularity. ## Financial review Cashflow remains a constant challenge for the Church – though we are encouraged by the growth in numbers and the subsequent increase in donation revenue. But costs have continued to rise and therefore our management of our limited funds must remain a priority. We have had to dip into our reserves very slightly for the year but the year ahead is positive and our plans for 24-25 have been fully costed and approved by the Trustees. ## Approval This report was approved by the Trustees via email and signed on their behalf by Lee James McMunn Dated 18[th] October 2024
