Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)	• The Chapel remained closed during the reporting period as a result of the Covid emergency. During this period, Revd Kirk provided ministry to members of the congregation and the wider community. • An unsuccessful Expression of Interest to the Heritage Lottery Fund was submitted at the end of February 2021 for the restoration and re-configuring of the building to enable an Innovation Hub to be created. • Consultation with the local authority has been ongoing, particularly in relation to the preparation of a bid to the Towns Fund to secure funding for the restoration and re-configuring of the building for the purpose of relieving poverty and providing training and work space. To this end, the trustees have worked closely with a consultancy company to provide a project brief to enable an Innovation Hub to be created within the building. • The trustees agreed to extend the objects (see [c] above). The additional object was approved at a General Meeting held on 31 March 2021 and subsequently approved by the Charity Commission. The members will be asked to adopt the additional object at the AGM in September 2021. • At the General Meeting held on 31 March two new trustees and a secretary and treasurer were elected.

Section D	Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
	During the period between the establishment of the FOC CIO on 4 September 2020 and 5 April 2021, the trustees met regularly to develop the Innovation Hub project and prepare a Towns Fund bid.

Section E Financial review

Brief statement of the FOC CIO has very limited financial resources and the charity’s long term charity’s policy on reserves financial situation remains unclear. At present we have no policy on reserves but expect that position to change when planned future development occurs. Currently it’s our intention to maintain sufficient unrestricted funds to meet the day-to-day costs of maintaining Flowergate Old Chapel. Details of any funds materially No funds in deficit. in deficit
