MADE4U IN ML2 - Y/E Annual Report 2019

| Vision |
We see a community free of
isolation, free of low selfworth
and free of lack of opportunity
for change.
Together, we see a community
full of connection, of confidence
and ready for change.
| Mission |
Motivated by our belief in
God’s love for us, it is our
mission to work in the ML2
area to see people encouraged,
empowered and engaged;
making a difference
that matters
in their community.
God’s love is
the motivation
of all we
do; that this
is our foundational
value.
If we only had
one value it would just be love; this is
primary. We believe that God’s love is
also ‘just’!
“God always takes his stand unconditionally
and passionately… against the
lofty and behalf of the lowly; against
those who enjoy right and privilege
and on behalf of those who are denied
and deprived of it.” (Barth)
‘Just’ LOVE is an encouragement to
and from all who with with and alongside
us in Christian community, to
walk in unity and love.
Our bottom
line is that
we believe
that there is
hope for all
regardless of
their oppression;
mental health, physical poverty, or
isolation. This is hope which spans both
community and individuals.
We will identify potential in all we work
with, and in the community we are placed
in, searching out hope where it is sometimes
hidden.
We will recognise and build on assets
in our community and in those we work
with, and also identify needs and help
people address them
Next Steps
The Trustees have recognised the need to develop governance including further board
recruitment and structural change in line with our priorities as well as reducing costs for
use of premises. We also recognise that we need to further diversify our funding portfolio
and diversify our income in order to mitigate issues with funding cuts in our current climate.
This will involve approaching Trustes, fundraising and agreeing corporate support,
some of which has already been set in motion.
