Principal address
23 Institute Road Kings Heath Birmingham B14 7EG
Other names
The charity can also be known by the following names: Kings Heath Christadelphian Ecclesia Kings Heath Christadelphians
Objectives and activities
The objects of the Charity are to advance the Christian faith in accordance with Christian principles through worship, praise, prayer, discussion, pastoral care and other activities to promote spiritual growth and charitable works for the public benefit. The Charity operates mainly but not exclusively in the Kings Heath area of Birmingham, but may carry out its charitable purposes elsewhere in the UK and/or in other parts of the world.
Activities and income were unavoidably affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. In accordance with Government guidelines, regular Sunday assembly had been suspended from the middle of March 2020. It resumed during 2021-22. Continuing activities included the following:
-
Church services and meetings for worship, holy communion and Bible study, to encourage members and visitors to live by Christian principles. In the early months of the year we could not meet in person for these activities but we made use of online facilities, mainly Zoom.
-
A limited range of children’s activities was continued for a while, also using online facilities. During the year the full range of activities was resumed.
-
Pastoral care for members and their families.
-
Collections for local, national and international charities.
We were able to resume some activities which had been suspended, such as regular collections for a local food bank and occasional fundraising events. For a few months part of the building was made available for refugee support activities under appropriate social distancing restrictions.
Our building project was completed during the year: this involved the construction of an annex on the site, to replace a dilapidated building which had to be demolished. The annex is now being used for the furtherance of the above activities, with particular emphasis on children’s activities.
The charity is entirely run by volunteers who organise the activities described above and may propose new activities in line with the objectives.
Achievements and performance
During the period April 2021 to March 2022 our active membership grew to about 100. In response to the needs of a growing membership a new structure for pastoral care was implemented during the previous year and remains in place.
In keeping with the objective of promoting spiritual growth, we have continued to make our services available online, to assist people unable to attend in person; this has been challenging at times because of limited access to IT and other professional skills.
Payments were made to some charitable causes.
Financial review
The cash movements and balances are summarised in the balance sheet. All funds are held in instant access bank accounts. The trustees were satisfied at the year end that the funds held were sufficient to meet the continuing needs of the charity. The accounts show that some funds have been transferred from registered charity 1177040, and the trustees intend to do likewise for the small remaining balance of the funds held by the latter.
Approved by the trustees on 23 January 2023, and signed on their behalf by:
