OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

WITNESSING: NURTURING: MENTORING

TTT pursues a united and growing vision for God's work with young people. It is committed to working together with young people to be witnesses to them, to nurture them in faith and mentor them. It does this by providing a consistent Christian presence and role models for young people in local secondary schools, local churches and across our community. It works with people of all faiths and none providing a broad range of activities, both Christian and secular.

Public benefit

The review of activities and highlights included below sets out how TTT's work provides significant benefit to the public. This work has been and is consistently praised by local councillors, the heads, and teachers at local schools where TTT works, our local MP, the Police and other local bodies. This work is also highly regarded by the young people that TTT serves.

In its decision making the Board of TTT is mindful of and complies with its duty to have due regard to the Charity Commissioner's public benefit guidance when it has exercised any powers or duties to which this guidance is relevant.

Charitable activities

In the late 1990's the Churches Together in Godalming and District formed the Trinity Trust Team with the vision to deliver Christian led activities and positive role modelling for the young people in the Godalming area through church, school, and community-based programmes.

In January 2013 TTT was established as a Charitable Company and continues to meet the needs of the young people in the area through a wide range of inclusive groups, programmes and activities delivered through the established operating areas of school, church, and community settings.

TTT enjoys excellent working relationships with the town's two secondary schools, Rodborough, and Broadwater and local junior and primary schools that receive regular visits from the team as they deliver assemblies and workshops.

TTT also plays an influential role regarding community cohesion and is often invited to join multi-agency working parties relating to youth provision and youth related anti-social behaviour by local statutory bodies such as Surrey Police and Town Council. It was the consultation TTT delivered to one such working party that informed the local Town Council's decision to create a dedicated youth hub and employ a team to run it, with TTT now partnering with the Godalming Youth Service in its outreach provision.

We thank the many individuals, churches and grant giving bodies for their ongoing financial support. In particular, we are most grateful to The National Lottery 'Awards for All' fund, the Erica Leonard Trust and the John Beane Trust.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

Some highlights of 2025

Outreach: For over a decade, TTT has had a regular presence in the Aaron's Hill area, an area recognised as of 'high need' (due to unemployment, low income, social housing and associated issues) and has become accepted and valued by local families and young people who also see the team in schools. Every Friday afternoon and evening through spring and summer we organise outdoor activities in the centre of the estate and during the winter we partner with the Godalming Youth Service mobile provision so we can maintain engagement with the young people all year round. Consistency of presence is a rock on which much of what TTT does is built; with over 20 years of faithfully serving local young people.

Friday Night Social: One aspect of TTT's work is to create partnerships with local organisations, and the Friday Night Social is one such partnership, new in 2024. The newly formed Godalming Minster draws two CofE parishes into one and comprises four churches. TTT runs the Friday Night Social with the Minster youth team having also partnered with them to deliver a Christian Union into one of the town's two secondary schools each week. Each Friday evening young people of secondary age enjoy games, peer-social time, a tuck shop, and this provision grew to such an extent in 2025 that we had to split the group into two age ranges, as we were delivering to approximately 60 young persons each week.

Summer Activities: TTT was delighted to again offer another affordable and accessible activities programme in 2025, during the first week of the school summer holidays. Funding from National Lottery 'Awards for All' was key as the team were able to take young people, (many from local disadvantaged backgrounds) to outward bounds and activities centres and to enjoy karting, Laser Quest, a theme park and aqua park, all for highly subsidised rates. This highly anticipated TTT programme remains an annual highlight for young people, parents and staff alike.

Moving On Workshops: The team delivers a highly valued 'transition programme' in local schools that comprises Moving On workshops for Year 6 pupils and Induction sessions ahead of Year 7. The Year 6 workshops tackle practical issues around adapting to a new school site and managing the challenges of getting to the right place at the right time with the right resources using interactive games and activities. The team is then on hand to help welcome the students into secondary schools on their intake day with team bonding sessions. The support TTT offers staff and students at this pivotal touchpoint in the educational cycle is widely regarded and highly valued.

School assemblies/RE Days: For over 20 years, TTT has delivered high quality assemblies to local junior and secondary schools and 2025 has been no exception. At Easter we delivered a new drama adapted from 'The Selfish Giant' and at Christmas our Team Director wrote 'The Innkeeper's Tale', a view of the events of the very first Christmas as seen through the eyes of a jocular Innkeeper and his wife. After both these assemblies at Godalming Junior School and the Chandler CofE school, we stayed on for the morning to facilitate lessons in each of the Year 3-6 classes based on an Easter or Christmas theme. The staff are all so appreciative regarding our preparation and delivery on these days, and the pupils remember the dramas for years afterwards.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position

We are pleased to report that, in terms of 2025, funding levels remained supportive of this vision. We are most grateful for the support of many individuals and organisations who have contributed to this work. 2026 represents a greater challenge for funding levels since we have no grant income from the National Lottery.

Reserves policy

TTT receives its core funding from local churches. Each year it starts with a deficit in relation to its budget and it sets out to bridge this gap through voluntary contributions and fund raising. The reserves of TTT as noted in the Current assets are £58,000 representing nine months of operating income or over twelve months of budget deficit. The Directors do not consider these reserves to be excessive and are committed to using these funds if the annual budget deficit cannot be met form other sources. Should it become apparent that a combination of reserves and current income are no longer sufficient to support the charity on an ongoing basis the Directors will act to close down the charity in an orderly fashion.

FUTURE PLANS

The focus of the Trustees of TTT for 2026 is to continue to fund the vision of the charity so that its work may continue and the TTT team to continue its excellent work. The direction of the charity will continue to be led by prayer and a commitment for the team to go where God wishes them to go. The team remains committed to bringing the love of Jesus Christ into the lives of young people. The Trustees are committed to searching for further grants and other forms of financial support for TTT.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Trinity Trust Team ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2025.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

2.	the accounts do not accord with those records; or

3.	the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

4.

the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
