What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
Upper Annandale Parish Church is an accessible and inclusive place of worship with a proactive and care driven approach to outreach. The impact of this is reflected in an increasingly diverse congregation and the numbers of new members actively involved in the everyday life of the Church. The Church is at the heart of the community, nurturing links with local organisations, charities and fellowship groups who use its spaces to meet and to serve the local community through mental/physical health support, toddler group, Citizens’ Advice, art and music groups, support for carers, fellowship and more. The Church takes “mobile worship and music” evenings to outlying areas that no longer have a place of worship. The Church's Youth are encouraged with funded attendance at Scripture Union festivals and in taking an active part in the Church. The Church also runs Alpha and discipleship courses open to all.

From 09 March 2026, OSCR is required by law to publish the names of a charity’s trustees as part of its Scottish Charity Register entry. We are also required to publish each charity’s annual report and accounts as received from this date, which may include the names of certain individuals. The only exceptions to publication are where a charity or one of its charity trustees applies for this information to be excluded, and OSCR is satisfied that publishing it would jeopardise the safety or security of a person or premises.

If the charity trustee information on a Register entry appears blank, this may mean that an exemption applies or that the charity has not yet provided the required details to OSCR. Supplying this information will become mandatory as part of future annual submissions.
Copyright

From 30 June 2025, OSCR began collecting charity trustee information through OSCR Online. Providing this information is a legal requirement for all charities. The names of trustees will be published on the Scottish Charity Register from early 2026 to promote transparency and strengthen public trust in the sector.
