Reference and administrative details

Registered charity name Barton Church, Canterbury Charity registration number 1173748 Office 32 Barton Road Canterbury Kent CT1 1YQ

The Trustees

The trustees who served the Church during the period were: Timothy Jenkins, Oliver Power and Peter Oyugi, and Stuart Trimmer.

Structure, Governance and Management

Barton Church, Canterbury, was registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation on 10[th] July 2017. It is governed by a team of Elders, who are the managing trustees of the organisation. Pastors are appointed as Elders and receive compensation as an employee of the CIO under a contract of employment. There was one paid Pastor, Rev. O. Power, during the reporting period.

There is a paid staff team, supplemented by volunteers, and they are responsible for the management of the day-to-day life of the Church. There are various strategic Teams staffed by staff and a number of volunteers. They comprise Office Team, Kids Team, Youth Team, Welcome Team, Set Up/Pack Down Team, Worship Team, Prayer Team, Outreach Team, Technical Team, International Mission Team, Local Mission Team, Pastoral Team, Finance Team.

Non-paid Elders are appointed as managing trustees to serve for a term of 3 years which may be followed by a further term of 3 years. Non-paid Elders will normally serve a maximum of two 3-year terms followed by a break of at least one year before they can be nominated for further service as an Elder.

The Faversham site is well established and no longer reliant on the Canterbury site. Staff served across both sites and the congregations gather 4 times a year for combined services (Christmas, Easter, start and end of the Summer). A long term aim is the consideration of a third site once both sites have grown numerically and leaders have been developed.

Objectives and Activities

The objective of Barton Church, Canterbury is the advancement of the Christian faith in accordance with the Basis of Faith primarily, but not exclusively, within Kent and the surrounding neighbourhood; and such other charitable purposes as shall, in the opinion of the associate members of the Church in general meetings and the Trustees, further the work of the Church. The main activities of Barton Church, Canterbury are, to see lives, communities and culture transformed by the gospel of Jesus Christ.

It provides opportunities for Christian Ministry and Worship whilst contributing to the community in a number of ways. The latter is evidenced by the various meetings and activities organised by the Church. These include: Parent and Toddler groups, various age youth groups (some as joint ventures with other Churches), Senior Citizen meetings, other Community groups for the local Barton neighbourhood, as well as a number of midweek Life Groups.

Furthermore, the church is pleased to make its Canterbury premises available for community activities (such as birthday parties, WI, a choir, NCT, dance classes, polling station and activities with other organisations and community groups) at an affordable rate.

Achievements and Performance

Advancement of the Christian Faith

The Church has held a number of events to which those in the local community have been invited to attend. These include well-attended Christmas Services, as well as a number of other special services and events which are designed specifically for inviting friends. e.g. Family Fun Days, Easter Celebrations and Family Services.

We have also run other activities that enable us to develop friendship links with people outside the church. The 5-a-side football team has continued to go from strength to strength and has developed into an 11-a-side team playing in East Kent Churches football league

We have continued our commitment to other activities that build links to the community alongside other Churches and supporting Para-church charities such as: Time Out, which works with disadvantaged and vulnerable people in Canterbury; Street Pastors, that seeks to help the vulnerable during the night-time economy and are also beginning to partner with Hope into Action, that seeks to provide housing for the homeless. Our student team has continued to support the Christian Unions at the universities and the Global Café for international students. We have helped to lead Hope Faversham Youth as an inter-church youth club. We have volunteer involvement in a number of local Christian organisations, including the Canterbury Christian Schools Work Trust and Faversham Foodbank.

The Church has been growing numerically on Sundays, with a stable membership

this year of approximately 150 across the two sites. On average in Canterbury our morning congregation is now 120-150 people, in Faversham 30-40 people. The livestream has been used for those connecting from home still following the COVID-19 pandemic, however this was phased out during 2022. We continue to provide an online content for discipleship and outreach, which reaches a wider range of people beyond our immediate congregation.

Our support for outreach in the wider church continues, including support for mission partners in Romania, Kenya, Spain, the Middle East and India.

Helping individuals to grow in their faith

The preaching on Sunday mornings in Canterbury and Sunday afternoon at Faversham continues to prove popular and challenging, and congregations are stable. We have now been holding services in Canterbury College for over ten years, which has been an accessible location for our morning worship. Using the college facilities has continued to provide many opportunities for involvement by a wider range of people and has particularly made it easier for the worship leaders and bands to lead worship more freely.

In Faversham, services are held at West Faversham Community Centre, now for 5 years. This has been a good location although we have less opportunity to make additional bookings to serve the local community due to lack of availability and cost.

Identical Sunday services are held at the two sites with the same preacher, and service content, although service leaders, music bands and children’s and youth activities are led from the congregations attending the site.

In addition, we have continued to produce teaching and training courses including: Parenting, Apologetics, Christianity Explored and Foundations discipleship courses. There is a now a well-established series of teaching podcasts which further equip believers in Bible, discipleship and leadership.

Being a Caring Community

A number of the matters mentioned above have related to the theme of community. This is increasingly a theme of the church as we want to work out community life in a world that is increasingly splintered and uncaring. Much of this is unsung and a matter of building personal relationships. There are a number of things that we do to foster a sense of the caring Community that we aspire to be.

Service to the Community

The following activities are examples of how the church works to serve the community: -

Financial Review

See attached report: Church Accounts for 1 April 2022– 31 March 2023 and Audit Certificate

Investment policy

The church has no intention to maintain investments for the purpose of income generation but it owns a property that is being re-purposed for our new Hope into Action project.

Over this last year we have had a house-sitter caring for the property until we are able to launch the Hope into Action project.

Responsibility of the Trustees

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the accounts, which are produced by the treasurer. The trustees consider that an independent audit is not required for this year (under section 43(2) of the charities Act 1993 (the 1993 Act)). The accounts will be checked internally.

Serious Incidents

There were no reportable serious incidents during the period.
