Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 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 vulnerable people who 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 thls takes wlsdom, 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 member5 of Thirtyone'.eight who provide support, guidance and tralnlng. We have a safeguarding pollcy. Accesslblllty. We are seeklng as a church to be accessible to all. Thls applies to those wlth physical disabilltles as well as those wlth mental health Issues. We have growing number of our family in wheelchalrs or with walkers for which we have an easy level access, and automatic front door. We have In place a qualified volunteer as our accessibillty lead. We have developed an accessibility board and resources area In the church lounge with accesslble bibles, fldget toys, visual timetables and general InformatSon. We are registered on the Addltlonal Needs Alllance Accesslble Churches Reglster. We hosted an event for families (children and teenagers) when we had a great team of volunteers. and It was well attended (20). Activities The church typically conducts a wide range of activities in pursuit of its charitable objectives. The Trustees consider that these activities provide beneflt both to those who worshlp at our church and the wider communlty of Tewkesbury. We have also been able to rnake our building available to other community groups and have seen a significant rise in community groups utili5ing the Page 5
Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 building regularly (24 individual groups, an increase of 5 on the prevlous year). This has included Rainbows and Brownies, Bridge club, Strength and Balance classes, Pilates, Sing2remember, Monday Writers, counselling sessions, care in the commLSnlty groups, and table tennis. We are also host to the monthly U3A group, Insight Gloucestershire (for the partially sighted) and the Tewkesbury Repair Café. To facilitate th15 work, we must maintaln the Church bulldlng. This has included ongolng redecoration and a phased replacement of lights with more energy-efficient LEDS. The major improvement has been the installatlon of solar panels on the roof, enabling us to generate clean electricity and resulting in a reductlon In our bills. We are thankful for a REPF grant, whlch enabled this work to be done Servlces and Teachlng. Servlces have continued to be a vlbrant, welcoming tlme of the week where people are able to connect with God and one another. We have seen a slight Increase In attendance from an average of 81 to 83, wlth several new people Jolnlng. With Our Church Leader leavlng at the end of August, God hasn't put us into 'holdlng pattern, or in limbo as we await his provision of a new Church leader; rather, he has led u5 On into new and excltlng things. The Elders stepped up to fill the gap. The vision in September was to use the Practising the Way course as not only a basis for the talks on Sunday mornings, but also to get the current Ilfe groups to run the course In thelr groups and set up a Practising the Way course for those not already In Ilfe groups to attend. After surveylng those not in life groups, It was decided to run two courses, one on a Sunday evening and one on a Wednesday. These two courses were run successfully and have now become new life groups. The worship team has continued to grow both as a team (three acoustlc gultarlsts, two keyboardist5, three vocalists, one electric guitarist, one bass1St and two drummers - many of whom are multi-talented) Page 6
Report of the Trustees forthe Year Ended 31 March 2025 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 facllltate sorne live worship. We have also been able to ble55 Priors Park Chapel by supporting them in leading live worship regularly. The welcome team have been instrumental in ensurlng people continue to come back after their first visit and in creating and increasing the 'buzz' that has been evldent in Sunday morning services. Similarly, the hospitality team have been key In ensuring people feel valijed and a huge thank you to all those who have helped serve this year, the breakfasts and coffees are always very welcomel Every ftrst Thursday, we have our prayer meetings. These sesslons allow us to Set aslde an hour from our routlne to participate in worship, teaching, and prayer. These are always a blesslng to all who have attended them. Flnallyi a special mentlon 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, although a slight drop to an average of 15 from 18, mainly due to other activities clashlng.

Many came in to enjoy an activity, have a drlnk and a biscuit and have social contact. A grant from Tewke5bury Borough Council enabled these sessions. Outreach. Like 50me of the other areas, outreach interweaves into much of what we do. Outreach in a wider sense is how we"reach out. into the communlty in which we Ilve. In thls context, our youth and children s work, our missions, our Sundays, welcome, hospitality. dlverslty a'1d even some of our pastoral work all play vital roles in our outreach. Thls 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 momings have been a wonderful success. Numbers are growing, and wlth an average of 25 people dropping Sn through the mornlng. Last May, we once agaln took part In Tewkesbury's Big Weekend.

It was amazing to bless so many famllles wlth food, fun and fellowshlp. We also held two community lunches assoclated with a musical concert, attractlng approximately 50 people on each occasion. It was fantastlc to be able to invite 4Front theatre back to the church thls Chrlstmasl Thi5 year's 'Pantivity' was a little Fawlty Towers style called 'Not Gettlng Inn,.

Llttle Stars We've seen a bit of a drop in the numbers this last year, This may be because of addltional funding for places at pre-school and children attending those settings, or recent weather that permits outlngs. However, we do have our regulars, and on a busy week, we see around 20. Fuse We currently have 21 children registered, coming from 4 of the local primary schools. Several of the parents do stay, and we provide a space to sit and chat with tea & coffee.

There are 54 young people reglstered for Frlday evenings, 40 of whom fall into the younger session, and several of the 14 older one5 help out for that younger sesslon before having their own time once the younger ones have gone home. With only 4 regular leaders in the younger session, we are at our absolute limlt. We continue to bulld the younger session around the YFC resources for each term, looking at various themes from 'Who Is God?, to 'Bullying'. Thls usually involves some games or silly activities and a few thought-provoking challenges. The younger session is always Ilvely, with some big characters attendlng. The older session has been worklng through the new Youth Alpha series, which has had a mlxed rL'5ponse, but on occasion has prompted good dlscussion. Great Wood Camp has become our annual residential for our own youth. A wonderful site of log cabins set In the woodland on the Quantock hills. 20 members of the group Jolned us this year.

We support them in prayer and give them a flnancial gift each month. One of our members visited them on a visit to Indla. We also helped towards the cost of surgery for a young pastor In western Indla. We also partner with the Pentecostal Church in Kibakwe (Thnzania). The church has a focus for growing the klngdom by holding mission meetlngs In local vlllages and plantlng new churches in these villages. Kibakwe church has also been a great supporter of the Vlllage of Hope and Grace ministry to orphans. Thls year, we have been able to contlnue to support Emanuel In his final year at blble college.

We also have one-off gift days for certain projects and seek to access grants when available. Reserves Pollcy. Reserves Policy for financial year 2025-26 (Approved by The Trustees on 18 February 2025) Purpose and Scope The Charity Commission requlre that the Trustees of every charity establish and record Reserves Pollcy for the charity. The tem 'reserves' means funds that could be avallable quickly to meet an emergency. The reserve policy must be included in the annual report accompanylng the accounts. The table below 5how5 the variou5 funds, their purpose and the balance held. General General Church Purposes IOO/o of Income for mlssion purposes.

The balance needed for these funds will be dirtated by each fvnd's specific purpose. The Charity Reserves policy deals witn our Generdl Fund; the others are NOT required to be included in our reserves. Page 12
Tewkesbu Report of the Trustees forthe Year Ended 31 March 2025 There is, therefore, only a need for a reserves policy for the General Fund. The Trustees conslder that.. Money should only be kept in reserve for specific reasons. While the Bible indicates that we should not hoard, it is sensible to plan for known events, and our responsibility for others is important. In our budget for 2025-26, we have empSoyment costs amounting to £4,000 per month. The employment contracts include either a I month or three-month notice period. The trustees monitor the balances at their monthly meetingt therefore, it is anticipated that appropdate notice could be given to terminate employment without drawing on reserve funds. However, It would be pnjdent to keep one month's employment cost in reserve should it be necessary (£4,000). The monthly running and malntenance costs of the church, excluding employees, amount to approximately £3,500. The trustee5 monitor the levels of current and expected Income and expendlture and assess the level of cash reseNes required to meet any Shortfalls. However, It Is consldered prudent to keep one month's operating cost in reserve (£3,500). The trustee5 assess that the total reserve requlred is the sum of one month's operating costs (£3,500) plus one month's employment costs (£4,000). The treasurer Is authorlsed to accumulate £7,500 as a reserve. Procedure • At the tlrne that the budget Is set for the financial year, the Trustees will consider the level of the reserves to be held to cover any expected cash flow delays, as well as potentlal emergencies where significant expenditure may be required before addltional Income can be ralsed. The budget presented to the members for approval will include details of the level of reserves assessed by the Trustees to be required for the financlal year. If the amount of reserves held significantly exceed5 the level assessed as required, the Trustees will develop and present to members a plan for Lising these excess reserves to fulfll the church's charitable objectives. The amount of reserves held will be included in each financial report prepared for the Trustees, business meetings and presented in members, meetings.
