Trustees report for Origin Bible Trust. For year 115122 to 3014/23. The ongoing effects of the Covid restrictions made it difficult to use the exhibition for the first part of this periol but there was more confidence for schools and public events by 2023. We were in schools by invitation and a public venue in the Co Londonderry. When in schools classes were conducted around the exhibition in age appropriate tour. At other times it was open to the public and visitors were encouraged to browse the exhibition at their leisure, with the trustees on hand to answer questions. Feedback from teachers was very positive, both in the content of the exhibition and how those explaining it to children were able to relate to each age group. It was also noted that the content of the exhibition fitted closely in with the national RE curriculum. No charge was made for the exhibition and there were no collection boxes used or appeal for donations. The trust did not do any fund raising. Expenditure of the trust was for the design and printing publicity material exhibition as well as room hire and hospitality in the public venue. The trustees transported and operated the exhibition at their own expense. No trustee received any renumeration or expenses from the trust. The trustees are confident that the use of the Bible Exhibition has resulted in benefit to the public in providing education about the world's bestselling book and the joy and peace in coming to know Jesus Christ and His teaching. The trustees know of no harni resulting from the activities of the trust. Approved by trustees on 26th February 2024 Signed on their behalf Robert Armstrong Trustee
