**Clarence Park Baptist Church, Weston-super-Mare – Charity No. 1200257 TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

## **OBJECTS AND ACTIVITIES** 

The principal object of the charity is the advancement of the Christian faith according to the principles of the Baptist denomination to include the advancement of education, community service, and such other general charitable purposes in such parts of the United Kingdom and the world as the Church shall determine. 

The Church vision is: ‘We seek to bring people to Jesus and together grow in our relationship with God and each other as we serve the community.’ We do this under the strap line **WORSHIP God, GROW Together, SERVE Others** . 

A significant event during the year was the departure, in August, of Steve Christian as Minister after almost twenty-one years of service with the Church. The Trustees immediately put in place procedures to enable the work of the Church to continue, including the holding of regular Sunday services and the provision of pastoral care. In consultation with the Regional Ministers the process was commenced to discern the way forward for the Church and to consider the appointment of a new Minister. 

To achieve its objective the Church provides a variety of activities both to its members and to the community generally aiming to show the love of Jesus Christ in both word and deed and to bring people into a closer relationship with Him as living Lord. 

Central to the work and witness of the Church is the provision of regular public services of Christian worship each Sunday, normally at 10.30am. The services are live-streamed on YouTube for those who are unable to attend in person or wish to watch on demand later in the week. There are occasional services at other times which are advertised at the services, in the weekly bulletins, on Facebook groups and on the Church website www.cpbc.co.uk There is a Sunday club programme, usually on the first and third Sunday of the month, for children; the services on the other weeks of the month are aimed for an all age congregation. The Church seeks to be a friendly and welcoming community, and anybody is free to attend any of these services. 

The Church runs a series of **House Groups** for the growth of faith and discipleship in the homes of some members. Details of these can be obtained from the Trustees on request, or at the Sunday services of worship. 

The Church is responsible for a **Toddler Group** which meets on the Church premises on Thursdays, with the purpose of assisting the community and demonstrating the love of Jesus Christ. Also, on a Thursday, the Church holds a **Community Coffee Morning** open for anyone to attend where free tea and coffee is served, and people are welcome to come and chat and find help if needed. 

There are also groups open for the community to attend which are both social but also Christian in nature. **Time Out** and **The Ladies Friendship Group** for women; a **Men's Group** ; a **Craft Group** ; a **Nomads Group** ; a **Community Choir (Caprione)** ; and a **Hand Chimes Group (the Clangers)** . A **Meet and Mix Group** arrange various activities for all but with a particular focus for those having special needs. 

Our building is used regularly by a **Narcotics Support Group** and **The Mount Church** , an Indian speaking congregation who are part of a church in Bristol. The latter group shares with us in our Christmas community event, **Carols around the Tree** , and have used our baptistry for services of believers’ baptism. 

The Church has joined with the other Baptist Churches in our town to offer **Alpha Courses** for people interested in discovering more about Christianity. The Deacons have continued to meet with the Church leaderships from Milton Baptist, Worle Baptist, and Bristol Road Baptist Churches to explore how we can better work together for mission within our town and build on the projects that are already being held. A Charitable Incorporated Organisation has been set up to enable this. One combined activity has been taking a lease on a building in Worle, to provide a safe space for the community to experience ‘peace’ in the form of a **Renew Centre** .

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

The Church does not measure the success of its programmes only in numbers, including financial numbers, but also in less tangible areas like fellowship, encouragement and influence in people’s lives. The Trustees recognise that these are difficult to measure but believe that 2024 was a positive year in the life of the Church and that it will be able to pursue its mission purposes in 2025. 

The Church is very fortunate in having people who are willing to give their time and talents to support its life and work. Whether it be leading study groups, setting up and packing away for services and meetings, staffing the office, providing refreshments, making music, supplying flowers, welcoming people into the premises, cleaning or many of the other tasks done quietly day by day. This is truly appreciated, and the Church wishes to record its thanks to all our members and friends for their support.

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

The Church continues to raise the funds needed to carry on its activities from within its own membership and congregation. No wider public appeal for funds was made during the year. 

Until 31 August 2024 the most significant expense of the Church had been our responsibility for the stipend and housing costs of our Minister, Revd Steve Christian. Following his resignation the manse was not needed for a Minister and he and his family have been renting the premises whilst they look for suitable alternative accommodation and have assumed responsibility for all other expenses relating to the manse. 

Financially the Church offerings have been below our expected income but the balance in our reserves has enabled us to continue to operate all our activities. The Trustees are satisfied that they have sufficient reserves, together with ongoing anticipated income, to enable the Church to function effectively in the coming year. 

In terms of building maintenance, the necessary repairs and maintenance have been undertaken to keep the buildings in good condition. 

The Church has continued to maintain its membership with the wider Baptist family through the Baptist Union, the West of England Baptist Association (Webnet); representatives of the Church have attended their meetings. In the year to 31 December 2024 the Church supported Baptist mission work through donations amounting to £3,010 each to Baptist Union Home Mission and BMS World Mission. In addition, the Church has supported work in the local community such as Foodbank, Christians Against Poverty and elsewhere by responding to requests from national mission partners to help with disaster and poverty relief. 

The Church has read the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit and is satisfied that the activities outlined above clearly demonstrate that the charity is providing a benefit to the public. All meetings are open to the community at large.

## **Clarence Park Baptist Church, Weston-super-Mare – Charity No. 1200257 TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

Manse Fund General maintenance and repair to the manse. Equipment Fund Upkeep, upgrade and replacement of audio, visual and office equipment. Youth Fund For youth work. Training Fund Income from the invested capital may only be used for training purposes. Agency Funds The Church receives and distributes money for other registered charities, including Baptist Union Home Mission, BMS World Mission, Baptist World Aid, Operation Agri and Spurgeons Childcare. Individual funds are maintained for each charity to ensure that these amounts are separated from normal Church funds. By this means the Church can claim and pass on to those charities any tax rebates received under Gift Aid. 

## **RESTRICTED FUNDS** 

## **CHURCH GROUPS AND ORGANISATIONS** 

The various groups and organisations associated with the Church are listed with details of money they have received and paid. All money received and paid out by the groups and organisations has been included in the Statement of Receipts and Payments. 

## **RISK ASSESSMENT AND SAFEGUARDING** 

The Deacons, as Charity Trustees, are engaged in an on-going programme of risk assessment, including health and safety issues, relating to the Church buildings and the Church activities. 

The Church operates systems to ensure that all people working with children and adults at risk are appropriately vetted through the Disclosure and Barring Service and receive Baptist Union of Great Britain Excellence in Safeguarding training relevant to their role. 

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES** 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and the United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practices. 

The law applicable to charities in England & Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the income, resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- State whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

- Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose, with reasonable accuracy at any time, the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2023 and the provisions of the Trust Deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

## **AUTHORISATION** 

The Annual Report and the accompanying Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2024 were approved by the Deacons on 04/09/2025 and we are authorised to sign the Report on their behalf.
