02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
The purposes of the charity are the advancement of the Christian faith, the relief of those in need in the local community and elsewhere, the provision of pastoral care to its congregation and local community, and the support of Christian missionary organisations and individuals. The charity operates from a church building, community centre & café, and is administered by the trustees and elders, supported by 13 staff members, the majority of whom are part-time. All our activities rely on the commitment of volunteers, with over 60% of the church community involved in at least one area of service. Church services, small groups for bible study and regular prayer times are held each week, while a wide range of youth and community activities run throughout the year. The charity provides practical and emergency financial support to the local community, funded by donations and grants dedicated for these purposes. The charity is fully independent and has no affiliation to any other body.
