Annual Report of the Trustees for Leyland CAP Centre.
April 2023-April 2024
-
We are pleased to report that for this last year, giving to the work rose to over £8000 which is a record by some considerable distance. We are very appreciative of the generous support our partner churches have offered in these difficult economic times, and for the many individuals who have given sacrificially to support our work. We simply could not proceed without this support. We are also pleased to be welcoming two new supporting churches, Revelation Community Church in Leyland and St. Saviour’s in Bamber Bridge. This will extend our remit into Bamber Bridge and Lostock Hall.
-
What activities have we been involved in over the last 12 months? A few statistics do not of course tell the full story, but do give you a flavour of our endeavours. Helen met with 17 new client households and along with befrienders has continued to support ongoing clients as well. All 17 received generous Christmas hampers including gift vouchers and gospel leaflets.
-
6 clients became debt free, 4 client households have at least one member now attending a partner church , 1 client attended a Christianity Explored course. Helen has run 2 CAP Money courses for groups of people this year, one of which was the recently rebranded ‘Money Coaching’ which has been launched with all new content. She has also run this money coaching course 1-2-1 with a client. She visited 2 of the partner churches on a Sunday morning, and spent quite a lot of time at events put on by SRBC and Food Hubs making people aware of what CAP can offer.
-
We are looking forward to partnering with South Ribble Housing Network over the next 12 months and hope this will be a fruitful relationship.
-
The Steering committee continue to meet every 6 weeks, with 3 of these members being trustees. There have been no changes to the trustees.
-
Helen needed a new laptop during the year and this was purchased with the aid of a gift from the Lions of Leyland.
-
Thanks too to Wellfield Church, at Northbrook Barn, who provide Helen with an office and office support.
-
Already for this coming year we are seeing lots of requests from new clients and we hope with the ongoing support of our partner churches and friends we can continue to help those in our area with debt problems.
