Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers

Significant events

• “2024 2025 was another strong year for King's Community Church. Attendance at both the 9:15am & 11am Hedge End Sunday meetings reached its highest ever levels. Every Sunday from January 2025 to March 2025 was above 900 in total across the 2 Hedge end congregations plus Totton.”
• “It has been agreed to launch Totton as a self-governing church (Bridge Church Totton) next financial year as of 7th September 2025. It will exist as a CIO. Hope City (Weston) has already been established as a CIO and so exists legally and financially as a separate entity.”
• “In January 2025 a vison was laid before the Church to see £1 million cleared from our mortgage with Triodos Bank. The plan is for this to be achieved over 3 Special Offerings in March 2025, October 2025 and March 2026. The first of the Special Offerings raised £340,000 and so the Church is on target to raise the full amount in due course.”
• “In addition, the sale of Glenbourne (a house owned by the Church) for £508,000 has released £300,000 into over-payment of the mortgage with the remainder of the money going into funding core costs and improvement to the Hedge End Site.”
• “We took the sad decision to close part of our elderly ministry due to the increased skills, training and experience required of the team. Those attending were increasingly fragile and the requirements were becoming unachievable with unpaid staff.”
• “The construction of a sensory room has been delayed. The Trustees have decided to pause the project until the financial picture is clearer due to significant increases in the build costs. It is our hope that this project will be completed within the next financial year.”
• “The community outreach of the Church has also increased and diversified in the period 2024-25. The Food Centre has continued to serve families in food crisis. However, in addition to this, a Food Pantry has been created which offers £5 for 16 items of food over 6 - 12 months to families who need longer term help. Over 1,000 people have been supported through this programme, and 4 families have been able to move on from the Pantry as they have become more financially stable. In addition, the Church has partnered with Growing Hope a national charity) to establish Growing Hope Solent.”
