What the accounts disclose
“This income comes primarily from giving received from members of the church as well as income received from the hiring out of the church buildings.”
“There have been some residual issues following on from our becoming a CIO in 2024 concerning the transfer of the title deeds to a portion of the church property. With help from our solicitors we have continued to liaise with the charity commission during this period to bring this to a satisfactory conclusion which we are confident we will do during 2025/26.” — page 1
