opportunity to build new relationships and
share information and ideas.

funding for our roof, which is now water tight
and secure. This has been an ongoing
project for the church and we can now look
forward to opening the building for more
community projects.
Our Foodbank has been under increasing
pressure this year as needs have increased.
We have taken on more volunteers from the
community who have a heart of the work of
the Foodbank. Despite our resources being
stretched, we were delighted to be able to
provide 36 hampers for those most in need
in our community at Christmas.
The church has continued to provide a safe,
welcoming and inclusive environment which
open to all. Providing support and
encouragement for the members, community
and wider community.|| |---|---|---|---| ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: Para 1.41 Achievements against objectives set Para 1.41 Performance of fundraising activities against objectives set Para 1.41 Investment performance against objectives Other ## **Financial review** |**Financial review**||| |---|---|---| |Review of the charity’s
