Newlife's Leadership team, all of whom are currently trustees, meet every 3 or 4 weeks, to review
and organise Newlife's activities, planning, finance5 and administration.

Objectives and artlvltles
In brief, the objerts of the CIO are, for the public benefit=
the advancement of the Christian faith- and
the relief of persons in any part of the world who are in need.
Newlife holds Sunday morning worship services at Newlife Christian Centre, which are open to all
who wish to coine to worship God or to learn more about the Christian faith. There are age-related
groups for children on Sunday mornings, and youth meetings and Bible studies at other times. There
are also life groups held online, in the Centre or in church members, houses during the week, where
the Bible is Studied and the Christian life exercised in prayer, worship and support. Other Christian
exploration courses, such as Alpha and Freedom in Christ, are run from time to time.
In the Centre. Newlife joins with other local churches in an initiative called Mustard Seed. to provide
hot meals to local people who strLFggle to fee(1 themselves. Newlife also run a weekly toddler group
for local parents and toddlers to attend. Team5 go out fTom Newlife onto the streets of Palmers
Green to di5CU5s life and matters of faith with local residents. Other teams visit people in local
sheltered housing to meet residents and show God's love to them.
Newlife gave financial support to work in the Enfield area including drug rehabilitstion, youth work
and street pastor attivity. Support was also given to missional activity in the UK, India and Moldova.
Gifts were giver7 to those locally who were in financial need.
The trustees believe that Newlife's activities are within the charitvs objects and bring benefits, both
to Christians and to the local people of Palmers Green, Enfield and beyond, and that they have
complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the
Charity Commission.
Operatlons revlew
During the year it was decided to pause the English language classes that had been provided in the
building. This was due to limited numbers of volunteers with the right skills and experience. It is
hoped that the classes can be resumed at some point in the future when the volunteers required are
available. The Mustard Seed and Toddler group ministrie5 continue to thrive and provide a valuable
service to the local community. A weekly prayer meeting has also added to the life of the Church.
The Church building is used on a regular basis to host activities in support of the charity's objectives.
Away from the Church building, regular Life Group meetings continue in the homes of Church
members. These meetings and activities are supplemented by conferences and events for youth and
young adults.
The Church also works closely with a network of other local churches to share resources and to
support the pursuit of common objectives and missional focus.
Information about our activities can be found on our website www.newlifepalmersgreen.org.uk.

Notes to the accounts
Newlife has been in operation as a church since 2012, initially as a church plant from Chase Family
Church in Enfield. Since 2015 Newlife has met for Sunday worship in the former Baptist Church
building at 211 Green Lanes in Palmers Green. Newlife was invited by the Bapt15t authorities to
lease the building, and has done so from early 2019, calling the building Newlife Christian Centre.
Assets and liabilities
Newlife leases the building it operates from, and therefore does not regard investment in it as an
asset for accounting purposes, olthough Newlife spends money on improvements to it.
Owned assets are principally chairs and tables, sorne PA equipment, some kitchen equipment, and
resource5 for the activities carried out.
There was no liability outstanding due to debt or guarantee at 30 April 2024.
Reserves poliry
The trustees, policy is to retain reserves of at least two months of normal expenditure. Due to
consistent donations, but lower costs throughout COVlD-19, a healthy reserve was created which
enabled Newlife to make gifts to those in a financial crisis, and to organisations that supported those
in need.
Trustees, remuneration
None of the trustees are paid for their services as trustees. Three trustees have been paid during
the year for providing services to Newlife, as follows=
Caroline Kingham
£20,238 Operations Manager1£17,785 in previous yearl
Philip Kingham
£25,654 Church Team Leader1£22,544 in previous yearl
