of the church pastoral, evangellstlc and social.
The Trustees are responsible for the structure and fabric of the Church building
located in Statlon Road, Tewke5bury, and the church manse, 31 Barton Road,
Tewkesbury.
The Purpose of the Church is:
To advance the Chrlstlan Faith In accordance with the Basis of Faith
primarilyi but not exclusively within Tewkesburyl the surrounding
neighbourhood, the United Klngdom and the World.
Such other charitable purposes as shall in the opinion of the members at a
Church Meeting, further the work of the Church.
The Wider Leadershlp Team and Trustees are committed to enable as many people
as possible to worship at our Church. The Eldership maintains an overview of
services and other actlvities within the church. Our services and worship put faith
into practlce through prayer, scripture, and music.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2024
Values
Everything we do to meet the above objectives and aims is underpinned by the
following seven values, which were adopted In March 2011.
Encountering God
We seek to encounter God through His word, worship, and prayer. We read
study and teach God's word, the Bible and listen to what he is saying to us
through His Spirit.
We bring glory to God by worshipping Him, as we respond to his character,
works and presence among us.
We pray:
to honour God for who he is and to thank him for all He has done, to see
his plans happen on earth, for the needs of others and ourselves, to give
and receive forgiveness, for help in difflcult times and to resist evil.
Belonging
We offer friendship, support, and a place to belong, where we experience
life together, through the good tlmes and the bad, helping and caring for
each other. We believe that together with God, we can achieve great things.
Believing
We share the good news of God's love and the rescue plan for us, as
explained In the Bible, so that people may:
Find belief In God the Father
Receive forglveness through Jesus His Son
Experience the renewing presence of his Holy Splrlt
Continue In a personal relationship with God
Growlng
We encourage everyone to grow in their knowledge and experience of God.
We provide opportunities to help us apply our Christlan faith to all parts of
our lives.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2024
Engaging
We recognise that God has given each person a variety of gifts and abilitles
which need discoverlng, developing, and engaging in the Life of the Church.
We believe in putting faith into action, so we encourage each other to find
a place where our gifts and abilities can be used.
Serving
We serve using the gifts and abilities God has given, so that everyone is
encouraged 2nd built up, as God works through each of us. We partner with
other Christian groups and organisation as we aim to serve God in unity.
Sending
We want to bring change to a world in need and to share the good news of
God's love and his rescue plan for us. We engage in God's work locally and
worldwide, sending out our people and supporting them through our
prayers, financial givingi and encouragement.
Safeguarding
Safeguarding can be an unpleasant but very necessary part of our church family
life. As a church reaching out Into our community to welcome the lost, the lonely
and the broken as Jesus taught us to, we come across people who are
vulnerable, have mental health problems or are dealing with the worst the world
has to throw at them. We aim to be a place of refuge and safety, but this takes
wisdom, care and often suitable training.
We all have a part to play in ensuring that we are that safe space, and we hold
each other accountable.
Safeguarding concerns are kept confidential, and we are members of
Thirtyone:eight who provide support, guidance and training.
We have a safeguarding policy.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2024
Accessibility.
We are seeking as a church to be accessible to all. This applies to those wlth
physical dlsabllitles as well as those with mental health issues. We have a
growing number of our family in wheelchairs or with walkers for whlch we have
an easy level access.
We have in place a qualified volunteer as our accessibility lead.
The visuals in the church have become dyslexlc friendly making them more
accessible for most people (for various reasons), not just those with dyslexia.
The visual changes include:
song words
words for Bible passages/PowerPoints
handouts
Newsletter
programs for events etc
There are those who can now read the song words and therefore engage In
worship more successfully for the first time in their Ilfe. have developed an
accessibility board and resources area in the church lounge with accessible
bibles, fidget toys, visual timetables and general informatlon. We are registered
on the Additional Needs Alliance Accesslble Churches Register.
We have continued to host an event for families (children and teenagers) three
times a year at We had a great team of volunteers, and these were really well
attended (20).

Activities
The church normally carries out a wide range of activlties in pursuance of its
charitable objectives. The Trustees consider that these activities provide benefit
both to those who worship at our church and the wider community of Tewkesbury.
We have also been able to make our building available to other communlty groups
and have seen a significant rise in community groups utilising the building on a
regular basis (24 individual groups, an increase of 5 on the previous year). Thls
has included Rainbows and Brownies, Bridge club, Strength and Balance classes,
Pllates, Sing2remember, Monday Writers, counselling sessions, care in the
community grouips, and table tennis. We are also host to the monthly u3a group
and the Tewkesbury repair Cafe.
To facilitate this work, it is Important that we maintain the Church building. This
has included on-going re-decoration, and a phased replacement of lights to more
economic LEDS. We enabled our front door to be automatic whlch has proved of
great benefit particularly for those who are in wheelchairs or using walkers or
prams. The Bruce Wake Charltable Trust and Gloucestershire Disabllity Fund have
funded this improvement.
Services and Teaching.
Services have continued to be a vibrant welcoming time of the week where
people are able to connect with God and one another. We have seen an increase
in attendance from an average of 64 to 81 with several new people joining,
many from other ethnic groups.
The worship team has continued to grow both as a team and in our connections
with other churches and worship teams. Worship support to Sycamore chapel
continues to be a great ministry, where we have been able to bless them by
committing to send over worship leaders once a month to facilitate some live
worship. We have also been able to bless Priors Park Chapel by supporting them
in leading live worship on a regular basis.

The welcome team have been instrumental in ensuring people contlnue to come
back after thelr first vlsit and In creating and increasing the 'buzz' that has been
evident in Sunday mornlng services.
Simllarly, the hospitality team have been key in ensuring people feel valued and
a huge thank you to all those who have helped serve this year, the breakfasts
and coffees are always very welcomel
Finally, a special mention must go to the Children and Youth team who do an
amazing job each Sunday morning with our young people with a stable regular
attendance
Streaming
Although services continue to go on you tube weekly unfortunately Ilve streaming
has ceased due to lack of volunteers.
Support
We have continued to seek to support and encourage our church family who are
unable to attend regularly. Contact ha5 been maintained through calls, texts,
Zoom, Messenger, WhatsApp and appropriate visits - any real successes in this
area does not belong to the leadership. It belongs to everyone who has made in
effort to look after each other.
We've been able to offer some practlcal support to many in our church family and
community. We've been able to provide:
financial support to individuals and families struggling to get by food and
meals.
support for the local food bank
prayer support
visits to those who have been particularly struggling.
a warm space from December through to March on Sunday, Tuesday,
Wednesdayi Thursday and Friday mornings. Many came in to enjoy and
actlvity, have a drink and biscuit and have social contact. A grant from
Tewkesbury Borough council and the National Grid enabled these sessions.
Outreach.
Page 9

Report of the Trustee5 for the Year Ended 31 March 2024
Llke some of the other areas, outreach interweaves into much of what we do.
Outreach in a wlder sense is how we "reach out" into the community in which we
Ilve. In this context, our youth and children's work, our missions, our Sundays,
welcome, hospitalityi diversity and even some of our pastoral work all play vital
roles in our outreach. This is because outreach is really at the heart of all we do
in serving and helping those on the outside of our church.
Our coffee mornings have been a wonderful success. Numbers are growlng, and
with an average of 25 people dropping In through the morning.
LUKES café has now established a closer link with the strength and Balance
class and Rock Choir so an average of 25 people have been able to enjoy a
delicious lunch each Tuesday.
This year we took part once again in Tewkesbury's Big Weekend. AS we
celebrate our 400th anniversary we were able e to dlsplay items about events
planned for this year and engaged the children in buntlng decoration as well as
crafts, tattoos and face painting. Our own fun days were well attended and this
winter we were able to add Family Movie Nights as part of our Warm Spaces. It
was amazing to bless so many families wlth food, fun and fellowship.
We also held two community lunches associated with a musical concert attractlng
approximately 50 people, and one evening concert which was well received.
Children and youth
Our Sunday mornings have a good number of children and young people (on
average 18) attending and taking part. It is great to have so many children excited
to be here and part of what's happening. Again, those memories of being welcome,
accepted, and excited about being at church will bear fruit in years to come.
After the first part of the service, they go out to their separatee groups
creche for pre-schoolers, a group for primary aged children in the sports hall and
the teens from yr7 up to yrslO/II varying from 3 to 8 young people. It's been
great to see a few coming along from Friday nights.
Fuse, the after school group for primary school children had struggled
during its first year but In September we adjusted the times and
format slightly and have seen a steady growth ever since, seeing new

children almost every week towards the end of 2023. The session runs
on Thursday afternoons from 3pm until 5.15. It's a 'stay & play,
session. so we have had time to get to know several parents and
grandparents and have been able to offer support when some are in
need as well as invite them to other activities the church is holding.
The session starts with some 'free time, when the children can make
use of the equipment such as the bouncy castle. From around 4pm we
try to have a bit structure and look at a bible story.
It's been a number of years since we ran a summer holiday club, but
we returned this year with The Restoration Station which had a sort
of repair café theme. We looked at stories were Jesus met and healed
people, restoring them. We had almost 20 children attending each
day, age between 5 & 10 yrs.
Last year saw the launch of the launch of Solar. No more separate boys and glrls
we now have two back-to-back sessions on a Friday. The first for yrs. 516 to 8 the
second for yr. 9's plus.
The merge overall has been successful. The younger group is running at capacSty
with 40 girls & boys on the register with a small number on the waiting list and
the older session is runnlng at around 20.
Each week we take a short thought and try to theme games and activities around
that message.
In addition to the Friday activities in the church we have also been able to get
out on trips, including Bugs Boarding. Inflatable Parks, Water Sports, Battle Sports
and in September we took 45 of them to our own camp at Great Wood In
Somerset. Add to this 7 went to the Youthscape Satellites Festlval at Shepton
Mallet, also a few girls went to the YFC Breakout weekend at Ledbury.
Page 11

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2024
We have also played a major part in the Tewkesbury Schools team helping to run
the weekly Christian Union at Tewkesbury Academy, as well as prayer spaces In
primary schools and @It's your move sessions for year six pupils.
Mission
This has been another excitlng year for mission. We have continued to develop
our partnerships wlth Hope Ministries in India, run by John and Suma Hope
Ministries work primarily with children in a resettled slum. We support them in
prayer and give them a financial gift each month. This year thelr rninistry has
expanded greatlyi With more children and adults coming to know Jesus as their
saviour. They have regular youth meetings, children's services, prayer meetings
and church services.
We also partner with the Pentecostal Church in Klbakwe (Tanzania). The church
has a focus for growing the kingdom by holdlng mission meetings in local
villages and planting new churches In these villages. Kibakwe church has also
been a great supporter of the Village of Hope and Grace ministry to orphans.
This year we have been able to continue to support three of the Kibakwe church
pastors to attend bible college. We have also given a gift of nearly £1,000
to help the church build a new building to meet in.
We have continued our support of a young pastor, Richard, in Slovakia via the
Slavic Gospel Association (SGA). Richard is leading a church plant that is
primarily working with young people. The team had a very successful summer
camp with over 100 young people attending. The
church is growing, but has nowhere to meet that is large enough to
accommodate thelr growing
numbers.
We continue to support Village of Hope and Grace and its work with orphan
children in Tanzania. This year VHG has made a massive leap of faith to build a
medical laboratory and clinic in the town of Kibakwe. The clinic with serve a
population of 60,000 who have no local access to medical diagnostic facilltles.
Page 12

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2024
We provided financial support for Jastin's mission trip to the villages last
summer, during which he was able to encourage the orphan children VHG
supports.
We continue to support LAMA Ministrie5 in the Philippines whose work is now
focused on
leading children, young people and famllles to experience God through worship.
The Mission team provide oversight to the work of the Tewkesbury
Supports Refugees group
The team were also very pleased to facilitate the opportunity for the fellowship to
write Christmas and Easter cards to church leaders who were subject to
persecution in their countries.
Community Build Project
Thls continues to move forward accordlng to the finance available. The last year
has seen a structural englneer and architect progressing the detailed plans to
enable to enable initial work to commence prlor to our Planning Permission
deadline of 21st June 2024. Fund raising has continued with more folks being
engaged in the process and greater Interest also form those outside the church.
Churches Together
The Church is a member of the Churches Together in Tewkesbury.
Volunteers
We would like to thank the many volunteers who work so hard to make our church
the Ilvely and vibrant community it is.

Financial Review
Principal Funding Sources
Money is raised by the Church through donations, backed up with Gift Ald applicatlons,
investment income and through utilising the Church building for the community. We also have
one off gift days for certaln projects and seek to access grants when available.
Reserves Policy.
(Approved by The Trustees on 21st February 2023).
l. Purpose and Scope.
The Charity Commission require that the Trustees of every charity establish and
record a reserves policy for the charity. The term 'reserves' means those funds
which could be avallable for use quickly to meet an emergency situation. The
reserves policy must be included in the annual report accompanying the
accounts.

4. There is, therefore, only a need for a reserves pollcy for the General Fund. The Trustees
consider that:
Money should only be kept in reserve for specific reasons
whilst the bible
indicates that we should not hoard it is also clear that sensible planning for
known events and responsibility for others Is important.
We have one full time and two part time employees:
l. Church Leader - full tlme contract with 3 months, notice.
2. Children and Youth worker and Safeguarding Officer - Part time contract
3 months, notlce.
3. Cleaner -6hrs per week at mlnimum wa9e. One month's notice.
As the trustees monitor the balances at their monthly meeting, it is anticipated that
appropriate notice could be given to terminate employment without drawing on reserve
funds. However, it would be prudent to keep one months, salary and pension
contribution in reserve should it be necessary (£3200)
5. Essential monthly running and maintenance costs, excluding employees amount to
approximate £1200. The trustees will regularly consider the levels of current and
expected income and expendlture and assess the level of cash reserves required to
meet any shortfalls in cash receipts over payments. It is considered that one and half
month's reserves (£1800) + plus one month for employees (£3200) would be sufficient.
The treasurer Is authorised to accumulate £5000 amount as a reserve.
PROCEDURE
At the time that the budget is set for the financial year, the Trustee5 will consider the
level of the reserves to be held to cover any expected cash flow delays as well as potential
emergencies where signlficant expenditure may be required before additional Income can
be raised.
The budget presented to the members for approval will include detalls of the level of
reserves assessed by the Trustees, to be required for the financial year.
If the amount of reserves held exceeds the level assessed as required, the Trustees will
develop and present to members a plan for using these excess reserves in a way that
fulfils the charitable objectives of the church.
The amount of reserves held will be included in each financial report prepared for the
Trustees buslness meetlngs and presented in mernbers 'meetings.

Ba
tist Church
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity I'the
Trust I for the year ended 31, March 2024
As the charity's trustees, you are responslble for the preparation of the accounts in
accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 {"the Act").
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section
145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the
applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 14515}Ib} of the
Act.
Basis of the independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by
the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accountlng records
kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It
also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and
seeking explanations from trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures
undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and
consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair
view ' and the report is limited to those matters Set out in the statements below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
11) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the
requirements:
to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 130 of the 2011
Act,. and
to prepare account5 which accord with the accounting records and to
comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act
have not been met; or
12} to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper
understanding of the accounts to be reached.
