What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
Our mission as a community of Christians is to grow in our life-transforming faith in the central truths of the Christian faith – in particular, that Jesus is God’s promised King and risen Lord; and to bear witness to that truth in words and deeds so that people come to share that faith, grow in their love for Him and for each other, and seek to serve Him wherever they go. Our main activities are the life of a church community worshipping in the West End of Glasgow and the gifting of money to other organisations and individuals with a compatible mission and for compatible purposes. We hold meetings for worship on Sundays and also hold mid-week meetings at the church and throughout the city to study the bible and pray, we train others for church leadership through internships, and we seek to serve the communities around us, both together and as individuals equipped and called to be authentic followers of Jesus.

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.
