As we come to the end of 2022, it may feel strange to look back over 2021, but as a registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) (registered in England and Wales, no. 1190778.) we are legally required to submit an annual report to the Charity Commission (if you want to see our page click here). According to howcharitieswork.com, the purpose of a charity’s Annual Report is:
‘A charity’s annual report must explain what its charitable purposes are and what it has done during the year to carry out those purposes. Larger charities must also set out their strategy in more detail and provide an assessment of what they achieved.

We value accountability as a church and therefore we thought it would be right if we summarised the contents of our Annual Report into a short video (14:44). We hope you take the time to watch it and if you have any questions please get in touch with any of the trustees.
Alternatively, if you would like to read the Annual Report in its entirety then below is a copy of the Annual Report.
