REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
Introduction
The trustees present their report and financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020. The accounts have been prepared under the Receipts and Payments method, which summarises bank and cash transactions during the year.
Trustees’ Responsibilities
Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its financial activities for that year. In preparing those financial statements the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud or other irregularities.
Organisation and Status
Huntingdon Community Church (HCC) operates under a Deed of Trust and was registered as a charity on 1[st] June 1990 with the charity registration number 803355. Its main purpose is the advancement of the Christian faith.
During the year, the Trustees were: Jonathan Gray, Stephen Cawley and Timothy Anderson.
Additional trustees are recommended by the church eldership to be approved by the current trustees.
The responsibility for managing the Trust on a day-to-day basis is delegated by the Trustees to the Eldership Team, one of whom, the church’s Senior Leader, is also a Trustee.
During the year, the Eldership Team consisted of Timothy Anderson and Trevor Payne.

Public benefit
The charity trustees have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit in section 4 of the 2011 Charities Act, and the supplementary guidance on the advancement of religion for the public benefit, published by the Charity Commission, in exercising their powers and duties.
REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES AND FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
In 2020, HCC’s leadership worked to fulfil its charitable aims and objectives as laid out in the Charity’s trust deed. These are:
-
to advance the Christian faith
-
to provide relief for those facing hardship, distress or sickness
-
to advance education on the basis of Christian principles
The Eldership Team annually reviews HCC’s objectives. In 2020, priorities were set to: provide pastoral support for the church members through the Covid pandemic; maintain a Sunday presence through online services; and, adopt a responsive stance towards meeting needs within the wider community.
The Board of Trustees met formally 3 times over the year (both physically and over Zoom) with further business being conducted via informal means of communication.
HCC delivers its charitable objectives through:
-
Sunday gatherings, mid-week small groups and pastoral care open to all
-
Supporting and equipping its members and others who connect with us in reaching their full potential in life based on Christian values, through one-to-one support, teaching, training and courses
-
Outreach events and activities that advance the faith and enrich the wider community and family life in Huntingdonshire
-
Use of ‘83a’ – the Church Centre
-
Working together with other organisations
Our mission as a church is: ‘to enable people and communities in Huntingdonshire to thrive, through putting the power of God's love into action’.
The report that follows summarises the activities of the Trust over the past year. These activities were impacted severely by the Covid-19 pandemic, which caused cancellation of much of our programme and a shift to online means of communication from the end of March.
Many of our members either work or serve as volunteers in public office, voluntary organisations, education, or medical professions.
1. Sunday Gatherings, Small Groups and Pastoral Care Open to All The church provides the opportunity for members of all ages to meet together corporately on a weekly basis for worship, teaching, inspiration and fellowship. We also believe that mid-week small groups are excellent
5
Registered Charity No. 803355
settings for us to grow and interact in a more personal and intimate environment. We offer ‘first line’ pastoral care to church members, referring more complex cases to the appropriate authorities.
-
Sunday Services Our Sunday services continued to be the main ‘shop window’ for the public to access the church. Until 16[th] March these were held at Cromwell Academy in the Hinchingbrooke estate of Huntingdon, following our move there in October 2019. In the first 2½ months of the year we consolidated our move to the new venue, bringing in systems and rotas to smooth the weekly operation.
-
Format Our services at Cromwell included sung worship, news sharing, prayer and teaching/learning. On three Sundays in a month, children and youth received their own teaching while the adults had a bible-based talk. On the fourth Sunday, all ages were together throughout the meeting, and the content of the service was suited to families. These meetings were lighter in content and designed as an opportunity for newcomers to experience church in an appealing way.
-
Impact of Covid on Sundays Following the announcement of the first Covid lockdown, we moved our Sunday services online. In moving to online services, our desire was to maximise contact and connection between church members for mutual support and encouragement within the constraints of the lockdown. At the same time, we aimed to create variety and engagement in our online services within the limits of our resources. Material was prepared during the previous week by members of the staff team, and a pre-recorded video was streamed through the Church Online portal. The portal allowed church members to take part in online chat during the service. There was often a 5 minute period during the service when attendees could text or phone a greeting to others in the church, and, at the end of the meeting, a Zoom call was held to which everyone was invited. Musical worship for these services was provided by a number of musicians within the church recording song parts at home, for them to be combined into a single recording. A number of church members contributed to the online services by recording video pieces for the services. Online services began on 29[th] March.
-
Attendance Whether physical or online, Sunday services continued to be a key way we support our members in the development of their faith, and help them to live out their Christian values in their daily lives to the broader enrichment of the community. Our 8- week rolling average all-age Sunday attendance on 15th March, the last physical meeting, had reached 78, representing further growth over the figure at the end of 2019 (72). The total number of adults regularly attending or connected with HCC at the end of the year was over 90, and the number of children around 40.
-
‘Explore’: Bringing Families Together Through the year it was planned to run a series of events on Saturdays at 83a or in the setting of a local park to bring young families together for encouragement and support. Over time, the intention was to invite local families from outside the church into this setting. One such event was held, but the remainder were cancelled due to the pandemic.
-
‘One Church: Three Locations’ on Sundays In September, as the restrictions following the first lockdown we eased, we began to deliver fully live streamed services from our town centre premises (83a) for those who were willing to meet face-to-face in a Covid-safe
6
Registered Charity No. 803355
environment. At the same time, we introduced ‘Forest Church’, a socially-distanced creative form of church meeting in the surrounds of Hinchingbrooke Park, held in a socialdistanced manner. This was attended by a wide range of ages including teenagers, singles, couples and those with young families. It was a development of ‘Explore’, mentioned above, and was held bi-weekly. Together with the streamed service which could be joined at our town centre premises or at home, this gave 3 ways for people to connect with HCC on Sundays. This arrangement lasted until the end of October and the start of the second lockdown, when we returned to being online only with pre-recorded services.
-
Mid-week Small Groups We place high value on mid-week small groups as places church members can receive encouragement, support, learn together and work out their Christian faith in a supportive and caring environment. The year started with 4 such groups, meeting around Hinchingbrooke, Stukeley Meadows and Oxmoor together with a central Huntingdon-based ladies group. The Oxmoor group disbanded early in the year, but was replaced by a young families group as groups went online, using. Initially, groups met twice a week during the lockdown (for some this was a 4-fold increase in frequency).
-
Youth, Children and Infants Youth and children’s work relevant to Sundays is covered in the next section. A room was set aside at our Sunday venue for a parent-tended creche for infants.
-
Pastoral Care Pastoral care continued to be run by a team which included the two church elders, Jean Casling (Associate Pastor) and 2 members of the church. This team met monthly to maintain oversight of pastoral issues across the church, provided one-to-one support, and signposted individuals to further help where appropriate. At the outset of the pandemic, each adult church member was ‘allocated’ to a staff team member for contact and support. The wellbeing of each person in the church was reviewed in the monthly pastoral meetings.
-
Communications The church recognised that particularly during lockdowns, good communications were key to reducing isolation, keeping people connected, and identifying any pastoral issues that needed support. A regular weekly email was prepared, the website was kept updated, weekly video updates by church leaders were produced for much of the year, facebook pages were populated and several WhatsApp groups were formed. This hopefully resulted in no one feeling left out or deserted.
2. Supporting and Equipping Members and Non-Members
Throughout the year we worked to enable people to fulfil their potential based on Christian values through one-to-one support, Sunday teaching, training and courses. In 2020 we ran the following training and resourcing opportunities:
- Sunday Teaching and Small Group Application. During the year our teaching topics included the following: ‘Jesus in HD’ – a series from the Gospel of Mark; studies on the 5- fold ministry gifts; a series in the summer called ‘led’, looking at Psalm 23; a series on the essentials of church from Acts; and, the Prayer Course, produced by 24-7 Prayer. Topics covered on Sundays were followed up by study and discussion in the small groups during the week.

Registered Charity No. 803355
-
Prayer Prayer continued to be an important part of our church rhythm. As well as our regular monthly church prayer meetings, prayer times were held before Sunday meetings. We also held 2 dedicated periods of prayer in January and September. We ran a churchwide prayer WhatsApp group in which urgent needs could be prayed for and people supported through times of need, as well as a group for intercessors. We had a prayer box in the hallway in the church building where anyone from the community visiting the centre could submit a prayer request. The leadership team met for prayer each Thursday at midday. In all of these activities, prayer topics included both the work of the church, the wider community and the nation. Following the first lockdown, all prayer meetings went online.
-
Baptisms A baptismal service was held in a local swimming pool in February when 3 members of the church were baptised by immersion, a next step encouraged by the Bible following coming to faith. The was a great celebratory event for the church.
-
Connect Lunch In January, a ’Connect Lunch’ was held after our Sunday morning meeting. This was designed to allow newcomers to the church to find out more about us, to meet the leadership, to hear about vision, and have a tour of our premises.
-
‘Exploring Your Connection’ New Members Course. One such course was run in early March to welcome new people into the church. The course covers what we believe, our values, how we work and our vision. This gives a chance for people exploring their connection with us to ask questions, to test if this is the right church for them to make ‘home’ and to meet the leadership and discuss their integration and the part they might play in the church.
-
Childrens Work Aided by the appointment of a second children’s worker, children’s work developed well over the first 2½ months of the year while meeting face-to-face. During the online services, children’s items were included each week, although predominantly on the family service weeks. Activity packs appropriate to the theme of the following Sunday were made up and delivered to homes in the week prior to the Sunday meeting.
-
Sunday Youth Work Prior to the first lockdown, youth meetings were held during the Sunday gatherings while adults were listening to the sermon. By September 2020 the youth groups consisted of 9 young people. After lockdown, the Sunday Group continued on zoom, initially meeting on Sunday afternoons and following the content of the Sunday service. Later it reverted to its own content and met concurrently with the morning church service.
-
Wider Youth Work Prior to lockdown, the Friday Night Youth event continued to be a popular space with around 20 young people regularly attending. This was held 3 times a month and used both the facilities at the Methodist church for a more typical youth club night, and HCC’s own facilities where we hosted the youth Alpha course with a meal. We also ran various trips. Initially following lockdown, support was given through a mid-weekly zoom call and then, when opportunity arose, we returned to 83a for some socially distanced youth evenings. Through other church partnerships and through his employment with Thrive, our youth worker also played an active role in engaging with young people in schools, including at assemblies, Christian Union groups, in groupwork and offering year 6
8
Registered Charity No. 803355
transition lessons to the primary schools across Huntingdon. Although schools work stopped during lockdown we were still able to provide primary schools with a creative online lesson for those transitioning to secondary schools in Huntingdon.
-
Badminton Group The Sunday afternoon badminton group continued during the first few months of the year. This allowed 6-8 people to meet together socially outside of church, and was appreciated by all. In particular, this provide a vehicle for some who were going through difficult times to be accepted and take part on a fun activity.
-
Ladies Evening Meal Out Relationships between ladies in the church and some friends were built up during an evening meal out during March.
-
Sozo Course Four church members attended an introductory course on the Bethel ‘Sozo’ ministry. Sozo is a process that allows people to be helped with spiritual healing; it is a course that we may look to run in the future.
-
Walks and Picnics When it became possible during the summer, small groups were encouraged to meet in parks to take a walk together. Three picnics were held in August in a town park. These were the first opportunities for people from across the whole church to get together, and were attended by up to 20 people each.
-
Online Devotions On 3 occasions through the year, Tim Anderson, senior pastor, produced a series of online devotions for church members which were highly appreciated.
Many of the physical activities were planned to be repeated during the year, but could not be held due to the Covid pandemic.
3. Outreach Events that Demonstrate the Faith and Enrich the Wider Community and Family Life in Huntingdonshire and Beyond
Over 2020 we actively sought to engage and serve the community within Huntingdonshire. We undertook this in the following ways:
-
Toddler Group The Family Support and Outreach Worker continued to run the HCC Rainbow Toddler Group, which aims provide one-to-one support for families within and outside the church community and to develop programmes and events to enhance the well-being of families, parents and children in Huntingdon and the surrounding areas. The Rainbow Toddler Group has continued to prove highly attractive; in the first 2½ months of the year we continued to fill the capacity of the venue with around 22 families present. The Toddler Group was put in abeyance during the lockdowns. Starting in September, a Toddler Toy Library was arranged, mums being able to book a 10-minute slot to come and meet the team, and borrow a toy for a week. In the week before Christmas, a ‘come and meet Santa’ event was held, again with parents booking a 10-minute slot for their child.
-
Youth Work As mentioned above, we continued to employ a Youth Worker, who has helped considerably to drive forward our youth work, making events more active, engaging and meaningful to all present. The youth worker was seconded to the Huntingdon-wide ‘Thrive’ youth ministry for 10 hrs a week throughout the year. This helped him provide
9
Registered Charity No. 803355
considerable input to that organisation including, prior to the lockdowns, the running of youth cafés at 3 locations in the town. The team also undertook work into several local schools, leading assemblies and taking session for the Christian Union. Together with the Methodist Church in the town centre, Friday night youth sessions continued until lockdown. These included a meal and discussions time, traditional youth club activities, and trips out.
-
Alpha In the Spring we ran an Alpha course, to introduce the Christian faith to a number who were enquiring about the basic principles of the faith. Seven people attended the course and all benefitted from the clear exposition of what it means to be a Christian. Many are now continuing in the faith.
-
Creative English On Monday mornings until the first lockdown, we continued running a nationally-recognised course for the community entitled ‘Creative English’. This is designed to give those for whom English is not their native language greater confidence in speaking the language through fun, role-playing activities and gentle learning. A core of around 10 local residents regularly attended these courses.
-
Wetherspoons Lunches Once a month, after the Sunday service, we held lunches in the nearby Wetherspoons restaurant. This would have provided a cost-effective way for newcomers or people who are on their own to meet in a social setting after church, deepen their connections and find out more about the church. Due to Covid, only one such lunch was held.
-
Movie Nights A movie night was held on 7[th] February and featured the Lego Movie. Around 68 people from within and outside the church gathered for an evening with food and a film relevant to primary school ages. This was followed by a Sunday morning service themed on the film, so as to make a connection to which to invite film night visitors. A further movie night had been planned for later in the year.
-
Covid-Specific Community Activities Activities run during the year as a result of the pandemic included the following:
-
‘Give Help, Get Help’ A website-based facility was set up to enable anyone in the community to offer help to others during the pandemic, or to receive help.
-
The ‘Mask Challenge’ At the time when there was a severe shortage of PPE for hospitals and care homes, a project was launched to make masks for local care homes. Our target of making 50 masks in 10 days was well exceeded.
-
Summer Brunches During the summer, along with the local councils, we supplied brunches at a venue on the Oxmoor estate to local families identified to be in need and registered with local organisations. A total of 48 families were supported over a 30 day period, HCC providing a number of volunteers to assist with hosting families.
-
Christmas Hampers At Christmas, in cooperation with the local council we supplied hampers to families registered as being in need in the Hinchingbrooke
10
Registered Charity No. 803355
area of Huntingdon, as well as to some care homes. The hampers contained routine food items, special Christmas items, and toys.
-
Easter and Christmas At the start of the year, we had planned to hold cafes with live animal displays at Easter and Christmas to reach out to families in the local community. Due to the pandemic, all our festival events had to be online. At Easter we held a reflective online service on Good Friday, and a celebratory event on Easter Sunday with packs being provided to families beforehand. At Christmas, we held a Christingle carol service with components for the Christingle, and a Christmas card, being delivered to everyone in the church prior to the service. Christingles were lit together on Zoom as part of the service.
-
Huntingdon Beach Party A date had been booked in June for the Huntingdon Beach Party, a major event on the market square organised over the last 6 years with other Huntingdon churches, but this had to be cancelled due to the pandemic.
4. The 83a Centre
Our church building, ‘83a’, occupies an easily-accessible high street location. Using space that is not required for church activities, it enables us to provide, at affordable prices, other organisations to operate locally in serving townspeople.
The following organisations were hosted on a regular basis in our building in the first 2½ months of 2020, significantly furthering the public benefit derived from the building:
Huntingdon Area Money Advice (given free office space within the building) Cambridgeshire, Peterborough and South Lincolnshire Mind Huntingdon Psychological Wellbeing Service East Anglia Diabetic Eye Screening Service Choices Counselling Cambridge Deaf Organisation Road Victims Trust Cambridge Group Therapy Diane Cole Counselling Adrian Jackson Counselling Sefanit Inquai Counselling Overeaters Anonymous Narcotics Anonymous Janine Skyrme Pilates Class AG Family Support Royal Society of St George Peterborough Council Occupational Health Polish Saturday Language School Hands off Hinchingbrooke Hospital campaign Huntingdon Trades Council
Many of these activities had to stop during lockdown. Some re-started when restrictions were eased during the summer and continued during the second lockdown as guidelines permitted. Slimming World also started to hold regular meetings here in the Autumn.

5. Working Together with Other Organisations
HCC worked in partnership with other like-minded organisations in achieving its objectives. Locally, HCC is a member of Churches Together in Huntingdon and Godmanchester. We are also part of a wider network of churches and ministries in the east of England known as ‘Ignite’. Ignite is part of Plumbline Ministries International.
-
Church members attended a prophetic conference organised by Ignite and held at the Ignite church at Royston in March. Many were encouraged through the prophetic ministry of Isabel Allum.
-
During the lockdown, 2 Sunday morning services were held with the 5 other churches in the Ignite network. All churches contributed to the mornings, which involved shared celebratory worship and stories of what the various churches were doing. We also held an Ignite prayer meeting coinciding with our HCC monthly prayer meeting to allow the churches to establish links through prayer.
-
Carols by Carlight We assisted 2 other local churches in arranging ‘Carols by Carlight’ in December. This consisted of 2 drive-in carol services on a field at the local racecourse, and featured a local band and a guest speaker. It was well attended by church members and the local community, including a number of staff from the local hospital.
LEADERSHIP AND STAFF
The Eldership Team, who have responsibility for the day-to-day running of the church, meet monthly to plan the spiritual direction and activity of the church. During November, the team retreated to Launde Abbey in Leicestershire for 24 hours, to consider vision and strategy for the coming year. Through the year, effort was put in to further define and embed our mission, vision and values. Consideration was also given to how the church would re-gather post-Covid, and what we could learn from the pandemic experience going forward.
Paid Staff
The eldership team was led by Tim Anderson , who worked 2½ days a week for HCC.
Trevor Payne has worked in a paid capacity for 4 hrs a week managing HCC’s admin and finance functions. He further served in a voluntary capacity in the church office such that he was working full-time in the office until the lockdown, and almost full time at home during lockdowns.
Ania Anderson continued as Family Support and Outreach Worker working 10 hrs a week.
Sarah Ford worked 3½ days a week as Administration Assistant but left on 16[th] April after illness.
Richard Schwier worked 32.5 hrs a week, leading youth work and also helping in the wider strategic direction of the church, including joining elders meetings. He was seconded to the Thrive youth ministry for 10 hours of this time per week. Richard made a considerable contribution to online services.

Registered Charity No. 803355
Helen Cobby joined us on 1[st] February as a Family Worker employed for 15 hrs a week. She has worked to encourage and galvanise the families in the church, provide material and lead children’s and families sessions on Sundays and at Explore and Forest Church. She also spent a considerable amount of time on online services.
Dan Flint worked 5 hrs a week throughout the year as Toddler Group Project Worker, but was furloughed during the lockdown.
Justyna Kaczmarek worked 3 hrs a week as a Toddler Group Assistant throughout the year, and 3 hrs a week as a cleaner in the last 3 months of the year. She was furloughed during the lockdown.
Volunteers
Jean Casling continued in the role of Associate Pastor with pastoral and other responsibilities across the church.
Debby Flint met with the staff team for most of the year and ran some of the physical events that were held.
Many other members of the church served in a voluntary capacity at events and activities throughout the year.
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Unrestricted income for the year was £120,655 (2019: £139,769) and unrestricted expenditure was £118,093 (2019: £126,090).
We retain significant funds in reserve (the Support Reserves fund) to cover salaries and other committed contract costs for a period of three months. Giving by church members was broadly stable across the year, with occasional one-off large donations. Centre lettings income, however, was severely impacted by the pandemic. A grant of £5,000 was received from the local council as a Covid Discretionary Business Grant and one of £2,500 from Huntingdon Freemen’s Trust towards refurbishment of our forecourt. There were several new givers amongst the church congregation.
The funds of the charity include restricted and designated funds for the following purposes:
Designated funds: Building Renovation; Support Reserves; Donations; Fixed Asset
Restricted funds: PA; Toddler Group; Special Needs; Community Needs; Building
Over the year, 17.5% of our income was given away to causes outside the core programme of the church.
RELATED PARTIES
During the year one trustee, Timothy Anderson, was engaged in remunerated activity and received £21,000 as ministry salary during the year. His wife, Ania Anderson, not a trustee, was also employed by the church and received a salary of £7,290.
