Operations:
What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
2024 was a year in which New Life Church continued to see new people added and also have a growing involvement in Cumnock, with a view to starting a new church there. In addition to our Sunday services , our midweeks continued to see active study groups and community initiatives such as a Little Angels (toddler group) and the hosting of a weekly seniors lunch club. We were also a hub venue for South Ayrshire Foodbank two days a week. Our community involvement continued with our volunteers providing stewarding at various events. Throughout the year, we ran leadership training and other initiatives to train people for life and church work. In the past year, we have continued to support some mission’s organisations overseas and plan to increase this in the year ahead as we look ahead with anticipation and excitement at further progress as a church in Ayrshire and beyond.

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.
