TRUSTEES
OBJECTS OF THE ASSOCIATION
The objects for which the company is established is the relief of poverty, the advancement of the Christian faith, and the rebuilding of broken lives in our community. We work with homeless people, those suffering from addictions, families with chaotic lifestyles, as well as prison inmates.
PRINCIPALACTIVITIESAND ACHIEVEMENTS
Reaching Out — Street Work. Whereas we do provide food on the street, the purpose of the street work is two-fold. To share the gospel and to highlight people who are showing an interest in Christianity. Those showing an interest will be invited to our Christianity explored course.
As a result of our Monday night ‘street work’ there has been a noticeable increase in the number ofclients attending our Tuesday group.
Reaching Out — Prison Work. We have the privilege of doing a bible study with the men in Barlinnie Prison. The team is able to share that there is a freedom you can experience despite the prison walls. Again when they are liberated we would invite them to the Christianity Explored Course. We are in regular contact with some of the clients who have now been released from prison.
Rebuilding — Christianity Explored. It is our intention to present Christ to the people we are working with using the Christianity explored course. We hope to provide an atmosphere where people feel they can be honest about their doubts about God and ask any questions that they may have. We also run a discipleship program for those who want to go deeper in their faith.
Women & Children. Our work with the Mums includes teaching on practical parenting, cultural and social awareness, and environmental issues. It also involves providing support for our mums by accompanying them to social work appointments; meetings with lawyers and child care agencies. It is important to create an atmosphere where they are able to relax and share some of the issues they are struggling with. To achieve this we run a stimulating program for the children run by staff and volunteers. We are starting a Christianity explored course tailored to their specific needs.
We are finding an increased demand on these services, both financially and emotionally.
COMMUNICATION. The web is a good way of establishing interest in the a¢tivities of the charity. We also network with different churches throughout Scotland, raising our profile through speaking engagements.
CLOSING OF SERVICES
Although the demands on our services had increased substantially, we have sadly made the decision to close Chanan. This is due to the premises we were using being condemned and the increased costs of living. We are no longer able to afford our staff and since the CIVID 19 pandemic, we also seen a dramatic loss in our volunteers and many of our finaneial supporters are unable to commit to monthly giving.
This past year, 2023, we have not received any donations nor have distributed any funds and are seeking to find an appropriate charity to donate the remaining funds to. Once this is done we shall apply for insolvency.

Basis of independent examiner’s statement
My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations.

It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeks explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the aecounts.
