What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
Across the year the church met regularly for worship and carried out various activities towards our aims. We continue to develop creative and hybrid ways to develop relationships that people find helpful and supportive. We continue to develop our Safeguarding practices in line with developing legislation. We work with our partner churches in enabling the ministry of Radiate, youth ministry across Cathcart. We continue to offer our facilities as a community hub supporting many groups and community events. Much work has taken place across the year towards the redevelopment of our facilities to provide sustainable and viable new spaces supporting both our church community and the wider community hub that we enable through our buildings. We commissioned a design team to work alongside us and Planning Permission was granted on the 29th August 2025 for the redevelopment project ‘Rehobothy’. Decisions will be taken across the Autumn of 2025 with regard to timing of the work.

*OSCR is required by law to publish the names of a charity’s trustees and its principal office address as part of the charity’s Scottish Charity Register entry. They are also required to publish the annual report and accounts for each charity, including the names of some individuals. The only exceptions to this are where a charity or one of its trustees applies for this information to be excluded from the Register entry and where OSCR is satisfied that if it were published then the safety or security of a person or premises would be jeopardised.
