PREMIER+YOU: FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS
As Premier enters its 25th year in June, I am reminded of many times past,
where we faced very real dangers that threatened our ability to continue
to broadcast radio, publish in digital and print formats, run events and
maintain Premier Lifeline: the National Christian Helpline.
Writing this from my home instead of our London studios, due to the
coronavirus lockdown, I believe that more than ever before, Premier exists
for “such a time as this” and needs to trust God for courage and direction.
With high streets and church buildings closed, the negative impact of social
isolation is evident. Sadly, many families have been touched by the loss of
a loved one to this deadly virus. The reminder of our mortality has led many
people to pray and look for eternal hope in ways we haven’t seen in the UK
for many years.
Premier has continued to be a voice of hope to our nation through our
unique mix of media ministries. Our aim is to enable people to put their
faith at the heart of daily life and to bring Christ to their communities. This
is made possible by the heartfelt prayers and generous gifts which have
sustained Premier for a quarter of a century. Thank you so much!
I hope and pray that the reports in the following pages will encourage you to
continue to stand with us in our 25th year, a year of extraordinary challenge
and change for us all, and that God will use us all for such a time as this.
Peter Kerridge
CEO
For such a time as this…Esther is one of only two books in the Bible named after a woman. It describes how the actions of a brave heroine avert the extinction of Jews who were living in exile in Persia (modern-day Iran).
Its theme is the sovereignty of God; how our heavenly
Father can work behind the scenes to shape events and
turn plans that a villain meant for evil into a different outcome. Facing an awful threat, Esther is sent a question
(Esther 4:14): “Who knows if perhaps you were made…
for just such a time as this?” (NLT). Esther responds by
asking God’s people to fast and pray that she might act
courageously despite the dangers.
The call to be courageous can come in many different ways. This report you are holding includes the stories of
people whose lives were touched through an encounter
with Premier. Like the plumber who came to Christ last
year during a visit to fix the shower in the home of Roger Sammons, a Premier Christian Radio listener. You can read more about Roger’s timely response to a question he was asked on page 18.
I believe that more than ever before, Premier exists for “such a time as this” and needs to trust God for courage and direction.

Digital resources for the ChurchWhen more than 700 delegates from churches and charities packed out the Premier Digital Conference in November 2019, little did they know that in a few months’ time church buildings and charity offices would be closed and their need to communicate well across digital platforms would be even more vital than ever before.
Sharing ideas, practical skills and resources
across 32 sessions, 36 speakers addressed the
annual Premier Digital Conference, including
Nona Jones, Facebook’s global head of faith-
based partnerships.
While Premier events are on hold due to
the coronavirus lockdown, Premier staff
have adapted by setting up a series of
webinars entitled ‘From Survival to Revival’
offering online training workshops to help
churches adapt and provide relevant digital
communications to encourage existing
congregations and to reach out to the wider
community. The first webinar, ‘Digital Church: Essentials’ filled all 500 available spaces.
In March 2020 Premier launched Voice of Hope, a new daily enewsletter which gathers
articles, interviews, features, news stories
and prayers from across the UK and Northern
Ireland, providing real-life examples of hope,
inspiration, advice and stories from churches
working effectively in creative ways during the
coronavirus crisis.
Website visits are up across all Premier sites
with a staggering 40 per cent increase in overall web traffic over four weeks in spring 2020. The numbers of people accessing Premier
emails also rose with a 61 per cent increase in
open rates on 2.7 million email engagements.
Meanwhile the numbers of people across the
world listening to Premier Christian Radio has
risen by 50 per cent.
A huge 170 per cent increase in YouTube subscribers with 477,307 views of Premier videos also took place in one month in the
spring of 2020.
During Lent 2020 Premier launched ‘Give Him Five’ a series of email and online challenges
encouraging people to devote time to God,
read the Bible and pray, engage in acts of
kindness and to give thanks. This began on
26 February, but continued throughout Lent,
reacting quickly to the Coronavirus pandemic
and gave practical inspiration in the early days
of the crisis. Premier received some lovely
feedback from participants who explained how
the challenges provided helpful and positive
focus during a time of increasing anxiety and
then isolation.
Some might regard the new staff appointment
by Premier of ‘Head of Digital Theology’ in
autumn 2019 to be prophetic, given the need to consider what local church could and should
become during the Coronavirus lockdown. At
the forefront of developing a robust theology
of digital church, Rev Dr Pete Phillips, is a
research fellow at Durham University and is
widely recognised as an expert on the impact
of digital culture on theology, Biblical studies
and the Church.
Reflecting on the ways that Premier has adapted its digital ministry, Chief Operating
Officer Kevin Bennett said;
“The forced closure of church buildings has compelled the church to embrace digital at great speed. Building on 14 years of supporting the church in this area Premier has been producing blogs and resources with the new ‘survival to revival’ webinar series as a further aid to help the church thrive through this period. Our aim is to help the church grasp this opportunity to communicate God’s love to a nation living in fear.”
Delegates to the Premier Digital Conference
had plenty of opportunities to ask questions of
speakers and could also attend a digital clinic
for specific problem-solving.
Nona Jones, from Facebook, told delegates how to leverage Facebook as a tool for ministry and unpacked how social technology is changing the way people engage with faith.

Prayers for daily lifePremier is passionate about helping you keep up to date with what is going on around our world and helping you pray into those situations.
We want to help individuals and the UK Church
to pray into the various issues affecting our
nation and our world. Whether it’s the increase
in Bible sales and prayer during the coronavirus
crisis, the Christian street preacher arrested
by police, or the latest cases of persecution
against churches in China – we report on the
news stories you need to know about.
Rt Rev David Walker, Bishop of Manchester,
says he loves being invited to comment on
news stories for Premier as he says we’re the
only media organisation which allows him to
pray about the issue he‘s talking about. How
amazing is that?
Finding news stories is never difficult; there’s so much going on in our world which we need to
shine a light on and we have endless contacts
– MPs, charity bosses or church leaders – who
are ready to give their verdict. Because of our
reputation for our news, over the years we’ve
also been given access to prime ministers and
other senior politicians who want to use us to
get their messages to you.
Our biggest task is making sure we are telling
these stories in the best way possible across
our different platforms. We are blessed that we
can inform you through our three radio stations
– whether it’s our hourly bulletins or our News
Hour weekday programme on Premier Christian
Radio. We are able to analyse the news through
our magazines: Premier Christianity, Premier
Woman Alive and Premier Youth and Children’s
Work. But increasingly, more and more people
are accessing our news digitally through our
website or via WhatsApp, a messaging app for
mobile phones. Over the last twelve months,
record numbers of people have visited Premier’s
news pages, amounting to 6 million views.
The demand is huge – we know people here
in the UK (and more and more joining us from
around the world) want to get a Christian
perspective on the news of the day and also
want to know about stories directly affecting
their faith – which is why Premier launched a
brand-new website in December 2019 which is dedicated to Christian news where you can
access hundreds of stories, videos and blogs
every month.
In addition to the regular news updates,
teaching, devotionals, resources and scripture
readings, from March additional slots with
inspiring and relevant coronavirus crisis-related
prayers from a wide range of Christian leaders
have been featured each day, as well as an
additional hour-long prayer programme at 7pm
on Sunday night on Premier Christian Radio.
The two sample prayer extracts below are a very small fraction of the many we broadcast each week, but illustrate the breadth of involvement from Christian leaders in recent months…
Bishop Paul Butler,
Bishop of Durham
Loving Father, our nation, our world, faces
a situation that we are wrestling with to
understand and to know how best to cope
with. We need your wisdom; grant us all
humility to look to you.
We thank you that your love knows no end
and that in Jesus Christ, nothing separates
us from your love. Grant to the leaders of our
nation, and all nations, the wisdom that they
need. Help us to reimagine how we live as
your people in such times, equip us in every
way that we need, that we might shine as
lights for you.
Oh God, do not delay, come to us and help us
in the name of Jesus Christ, our risen saviour.
Amen.
Archbishop Angaelos, Coptic Orthodox
Archbishop of London
We thank you for the opportunity to be
able to speak to you. Lord, at this time we
are in need.
Lord, we pray for those who serve us in so
many ways, and especially at this time. Those
who are making decisions. And those who
are serving on the frontline. Those who are
serving medically in crisis, and those who are
placing themselves at great risk for others.
We ask for blessings and protection upon
them. We ask your healing hand upon your
world. And we ask you, Lord, in every way
to be our guide, to be our light, and to be
our hope that we may, in your love, be
strengthened and confident.
Amen.

Lives changedEvery week listeners to our radio stations, visitors to our websites, callers to our helpline and readers of our magazines, blogs and emails get in touch to tell us how their lives have been impacted by Premier.
Farah suffered physical and emotional violence
from her husband as well as hostility and
rejection from friends and family because of
her conversion to Christ.
My husband beat up our daughter very badly.
He was very violent to her and also to me. I cried
out to God in tears saying, “I need you to help
me, give me strength, show me what to do.”
The local police helped my daughter and me
into a refuge. Then one day I found the Premier
radio app. I began to listen to Premier Praise
every day and my daughter would sing along
to it, and now we love it! Having Premier on my
phone means so much to me.
I’ve been through a lot. Not being able to see
your family, being disowned by your brother
and father because of your faith, not being able
to go back to your home country because you
will be killed, it could easily all feel too much to
cope with – but Premier has been the support
I’ve needed; it has encouraged me to keep going through everything.
Farah, West Midlands
I subscribe to Premier
Christianity magazine and
read it each month. I love the
magazine, I think it’s brilliant.
It has fantastic stories, it
contains amazing information,
there are a lot of articles that I
use and also store to use in the
future. That’s especially true
of the September 2019 issue which included an interview with Simon Thomas who lost his
wife. That was an amazing article that I will
definitely use in the future in supporting people who are bereaved.
I share Premier Christianity magazine with
anyone and everyone I can. My son has anxiety,
depression and OCD and has a deep faith,
but he finds it difficult sometimes to go into a church setting. He loves reading Premier
Christianity, that magazine has helped him
immensely with his faith life.
Jacqueline, Newcastle
Because of the Coronavirus lockdown, we are not able to go to church, but Premier is our voice of hope. Premier is our church at the moment.
May, Edinburgh
I am a teacher working from home at the moment because of the lockdown. As a result of this crisis, it’s become paramount to be close to God – so Premier has been brilliant for me.
Karlene, Cardiff
During this challenging time when so many of us are in isolation I am grateful that Premier helps me stay connected with people.
Phil, Belfast
Our church has been streaming services online, but I don’t have a computer or a smartphone. I live alone and was starting to feel very isolated. When I told a friend at my church that I was really missing our church services, she told me about Premier and its radio stations. I had not heard about Premier before, so I have only been listening for four weeks, but it’s been such a comfort and encouragement to me.

Communities strengthenedIn 2019 Premier Christian Radio told listeners about a church in Newcastle that was appealing for second-hand LEGO®. The church wanted to set up a club where children could use the bricks to recreate Bible stories.
Since then, the children, working with
Jacqueline Atkinson, children and families
missioner in the Diocese of Newcastle, have
retold 13 Bible stories using the donated bricks.
Jacqueline told Premier’s northern
correspondent, Ian Britton, that she was
“overwhelmed” by the number of donations
she received which enabled her to start the
Brick Bible story club.
“It’s been fantastic because it takes a lot of
bricks to build a Bible story display,” explains
Jacqueline. “We meet on Sunday afternoons
and have been going 13 weeks; we just use bricks to build a Bible story, one a week. So we
have 13 displays, which is wonderful.”
A festival to celebrate and display what the
children have built was held in the church for
the wider community to visit and enjoy. Later
in the year the display was transferred to
Newcastle Cathedral for even more to view
and be inspired.
The idea was birthed out of a conversation
Jacqueline had with one young person in a
youth club. “This lad sometimes gets anxious
and frustrated and needs to be alone. I sat
with him when he got a little brick figure out of his pocket. He told me that knowing this
figure was in his pocket helped him calm down. That conversation got me thinking
about how to connect children, families,
church and community.”
The result was the Brick Bible Story Club,
which is one example of how Jacqueline asks
the children and families about ways the church
can connect with them – and one example of
how an appeal to Premier’s generous listeners
can result in an amazing response.
This was one of hundreds of stories from
across the UK and Northern Ireland gathered
by Premier’s regional reporters; Ian Britton (Scotland and Northern England) and Rachel
Matthews (Midlands and Wales) who work
closely with our London-based team of
news journalists.
On Good Friday, Premier Christian Radio
broadcast a two-hour special Easter
programme pre-recorded from St Chad’s
Cathedral in Birmingham with an ecumenical
group of Christians from the West Midlands.
The coronavirus lockdown meant Christians
could not attend a physical church building
at Easter 2020 – which made this programme even more special for many listeners who told
us it really resonated with them.
Gathering stories of churches and Christians
making a difference in their local community is
a key priority for Premier. This was even more
so when the coronavirus pandemic hit, closing
church buildings and leaving our reporters
working from home. However using their large
networks of local contacts across the UK and
Northern Ireland, our staff continued working
to gather and share stories that inspire, inform,
encourage and trigger hope for people and
communities, many of whom were feeling
isolated and anxious.
Will you help Premier fund its regional reporting growth into Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales and across other regions of England in the future? Caroline Greer, who comes from Northern Ireland herself, is our head of fundraising and would love to hear from you.

A listening ear Premier Lifeline: the National Christian Helpline continues to be available at the end of a telephone line to anyone for 365 days of the year. In its 25th year, this listening and prayer service became even more of a literal ‘lifeline’ during the coronavirus lockdown, given that church-based pastoral care teams faced new barriers in ‘being there’ for hurting individuals.
On Friday 21 February we took our 1.5 millionth
call to Premier Lifeline since its launch on 10 June 1995.
Over the last twelve months, 22 new Lifeline
volunteers completed training, with 18 having
started taking calls so far. They have joined
the ranks of Lifeliners who take calls from their
homes. Unlike other centralised, office-based helplines, which have struggled to maintain
levels of support due to the lockdown and
social distancing, our Lifeliners have continued
to take calls from their homes, offering
additional shifts, as some have been furloughed
by their employers, while others following
government guidelines to ‘stay at home and
protect the NHS’ have generously offered
extra shifts. In addition, five retired Lifeliners have returned to take calls. As a consequence,
despite increased numbers of calls to Lifeline,
we have been able to respond.
Lifeline had the busiest April on record in its 25
years of operation. As concern regarding the
virus developed, the nature of calls changed
with an increased number of people asking
for prayer for protection, with concern about
symptoms, for healing and sadly needing
comfort following the death of loved ones.
In addition, calls about the consequence of the
virus have included isolation, loneliness, fear,
anxiety, sleeplessness, depression, redundancy,
financial issues, parenting, relationships and problems with neighbours. A number of people
have called wanting to get right with God,
some have come to faith for the first time, while others have come back to God.
In the first four months of 2020, Lifeline volunteers spent a staggering 357,131 minutes
listening to and, if requested, praying on
24,119 calls to our National Christian Helpline on 0300 111 0101.
Comments about Lifeline calls…
Thankful that her partner has been through counselling and rehabilitation and has now accepted the Lord as his saviour
He wants to give testimony that after prayer he has had a breakthrough at work
Wanted to give thanks and praise for answered prayers. Lifeline prayed for her friend and daughter last week who were homeless. This week the council reopened their case and gave them a flat
Hadn’t known where to turn, it was so good to be able to speak openly about this problem
Two years ago the caller experienced a broken marriage and was on medication. With prayer, God has restored their marriage and she is no longer on medication and is back to health. Praise and thank you, God
The caller had been bedridden for the past five years. During this time she has been calling for prayer for healing. Today she has been able to walk to the shops and carry shopping. For this she wants to thank God for healing
He was so grateful to the Lord for giving him a miracle unexpectedly
Would you like to be trained as a Premier Lifeline volunteer, or could you give a gift to
help us train even more Lifeliners?

A strong Christian voiceFrom small beginnings 25 years ago with one radio station transmitting on low power across the medium wave to Greater London, to two radio stations across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, plus a third across London, an app and the web, Premier continues to provide a strong Christian voice to its large, growing and diverse audience.
Our radio content and the way we presented
it had to adapt fast when the coronavirus
lockdown hit, but thanks to adaptable staff, our
radio broadcasts continued with presenters
and producers mostly broadcasting from their
homes and just a skeleton staff based in our
central London studios.
Premier Christian Radio made significant changes to content and schedules to ensure
our radio output offered timely and relevant
coronavirus lock-in analysis, comment, biblical
reflection, news and resources to help our many listeners to respond well to the huge
range of challenges this pandemic has created.
Increasing the quantity of high-quality stories
produced by our radio and magazine journalists,
we heard from politicians and church leaders
from across the denominations as well as local
Christians such as Joe and Mary Snooks, a
couple in their 80s, who told us what life is like for them in lockdown. They spoke about
how important staying connected was for their
spiritual wellbeing and what the challenges
are for them, without access to the internet. A
range of grass-roots stories illustrating the ways
Christians from throughout the UK are working
hard to connect the elderly, support the young,
and provide resources for overburdened families
have struck a chord and helped to deepen our
connectedness with you and others.
Some welcome afternoon cheer was
introduced to afternoons at 1pm every Monday
to Saturday afternoon in All Together Now.
Presented by Pam Rhodes, this show is a
light-hearted ‘sing-a-long’ for the whole family
with songs for all ages. This is followed by a
mini-version of All Souls in Praise with Noël
Tredinnick offering some cheerful classics.
Meanwhile, in our 25th year we have dug deep
into the audio vault to find and rebroadcast some gems from the past including Billy
Graham, Dr Adrian Rogers, Joyce Meyer and
Chuck Swindoll. The breadth and quality of
great sermons and teaching which Premier has
broadcast over the past quarter century, to help
us in our daily walk with Christ, is remarkable.
Premier Praise continues to grow in
popularity with its commitment to playing
the songs sung in our churches today and
with music that sparks hope every day.
Many listeners comment positively about
the inspiring prayers broadcast at the start
of each hour, which give them the chance to
‘reset’ their day and focus on God.
Since the pandemic and lockdown, Premier
Praise has introduced more topical content
with additional prayers and short features from
leaders and Church representatives. These
will relate to our frontline workers, prayers for
busy mums and our elderly. Premier Praise
continues to be a station for all the family.
Premier’s CEO, Peter Kerridge, describes
Premier Praise as “the station for Christians
who want more music than speech”.
Premier Gospel has also adapted during
the lockdown to connect with its audience in
a deeper way. The weekday breakfast show
with Yinka has been extended by a full 60 minutes, which has been well-received, with
an increase in the number of people engaging
with Take it to the Throne, the prayer section
each Monday morning.
The specialist shows on Premier Gospel
remain a very strong part of our offering, with two new additions to the regular line-up.
Prince Mydas, who has enjoyed success with
hit songs in the reggae and pop genres, has
joined as a presenter of the Reggae Vibes show, while producer and presenter from CNN
Hannah Lovejoy has joined to present the
Latin show. Ibe Giantkiller has also rejoined
the PG team on Drive Time, which has further
strengthened the line-up.
Our annual Premier Gospel Awards night
has been postponed to 2021, but we are
encouraged that of the 500 tickets sold
before the lockdown, less than ten people
have requested refunds, demonstrating an
affection for and commitment to the event and Premier Gospel.

Lives saved Roger Sammons from Newcastle told Premier’s northern correspondent Ian Britton in 2019 why a plumber stayed much longer than expected to fix a shower in his flat.
I recently moved into a flat in Newcastle upon Tyne. A guy came to do some work in the
bathroom. I had Premier Christian Radio on
at the time, as I always do. I turned it up to
listen to a particularly catchy song when the
plumber came into the lounge to ask me about
the music.
“I’ve never heard that song before,” he said. “What is it, what’s it called?” I told him it was a Hillsong Worship song, and told him about Christian music and how much I am blessed by it.
Then he asked me questions about the
Christian faith. Well, I’ve been a Christian
for more than 45 years and so the faith has
been tried and tested in my life through
many different situations and circumstances.
I was able to answer his questions and the
conversation went on. I’m sure he was here
much longer than he was supposed to be!
Eventually he asked me to pray with him and he
gave his life to the Lord Jesus Christ, using the
prayer of repentance.
I think this situation reminds me that when an
opportunity arises, we need to take it. I didn’t
know this man; I didn’t know who would come to do this work. But God used this instance to
bring this man to faith. I would say to all Premier
listeners that when we get a chance to share our
faith, you never know where it will lead to.
Roger Sammons is a regular listener to Premier
Christian Radio. Premier receives testimonies
weekly with thrilling stories of how Premier has
impacted them.
When Heather heard about a man sharing his faith with others on Premier, she asked God for a chance to lead someone to Jesus. God answered quickly!
One day Heather from Devon was listening
to Premier Christian Radio when she heard a
man speaking about leading people to Christ.
Heather realised she would love to lead
someone to Christ. So she asked God if he
would use her in a similar way to the man she
had been listening to, that God would help
her to be bold and share the gospel.
Later that very same day Heather went to the
hairdresser’s and sat in the chair for a trim.
The hairdresser asked her a question. Heather
explains what happened next…
I answered her and she suddenly went
away crying! I didn’t understand. She came
back and explained that my answer had matched the words she felt God had spoken
to her in the middle of the previous night.
She wasn’t a Christian but had been praying
to God and asking him a question. Our
answers matched and this astonished her.
She couldn’t believe that God would do this!
On subsequent visits to the hairdresser, I
spoke more to her about Jesus. Each time
she asked me questions about God, Jesus
and the Bible. Then one week she asked me,
“How can I become a Christian?”
I told her she simply needed to ask God to
forgive her for her sins, thank Jesus for dying
on the cross for her and invite him into her
heart and life. She made a commitment there
and then. A couple of weeks later she told me
she was ready to go to church.
As I think back, I realise that this has all
happened because of my response to
listening to Premier [and hearing] about a
man who led someone else to Christ. I really
thank God for Premier Christian Radio and
for the opportunity to share my faith and lead
someone to Jesus Christ!

Information and inspirationThrough the print and online pages, blogs and esends of its magazines, Premier has continued to inform and inspire its readers.
Premier Christianity attracted a record number of
visitors to its website in April
2020 as voices across the UK Church responded to what
God might be saying during the
coronavirus crisis.
Published in late April, the May
print magazine was a special
coronavirus edition. Church
leader and author Phil Moore contributed an
article and later tweeted “I thought that @Christianitymag produced a fantastic issue
this month… big moment for them to take such
a clear lead.”
Within 24 hours of ‘The UK Blessing’ song
being released and gaining close to 1 million
views online, Premier Christianity editor Sam
Hailes interviewed Tim Hughes about the
song. This timely response in turn generated
hundreds of thousands of views across the
video interview and written interview on the
magazine blog.
Our new ‘pay monthly by direct debit offer’
(£4.95 for both print and online access) has led to a spike in new subscribers who visited
premierchristianity.com/subscribe
A wide range of features have appeared in the
past year including: Where is the Ark of the Covenant?, Human trafficking, a preaching master class from Rob Parsons, revival in
China, and the real life story of Natasha Ednan-
Laperouse, who had an allergic reaction to an
airport sandwich and the previously untold
story of how angels appeared by her side
witnessed by her father Nadim, which helped
lead him to faith.
Two new columnists have joined in the past
year: Chris Llewellyn the lead singer of Rend Collective and Lois Tverberg, an expert on the
Hebraic background to the Bible.
Premier Woman Alive, the leading monthly Christian
women’s magazine in the
UK, joined Premier’s growing
multimedia range of resources
in autumn 2019. With a wealth of experience working on
publications and recently
employed by Mother’s Union,
Tola-Doll Fisher (photo right)
has become editor.
Premier Woman Alive has retained
much-loved regulars while adding
new contributors to reflect and speak into the vital and diverse roles women
play in the UK today. Our April and
May 2020 editions on Health and Silence spoke into the ongoing
Coronavirus narrative and helped
support readers in this turbulent time.
The Woman to Woman radio team have
collaborated to include interviews in print with
worship leaders Lou Fellingham, Nancy Goudie
and Noel Robinson, while securing features with
respected leaders Katia Adams and Jen Baker.
In keeping with Woman Alive readers’
preference for real life, relatable stories,
we have moved towards tackling difficult topics such as chronic illness, and infidelity. Our valuable team of contributors use their
theological knowledge to help readers navigate
Bible passages and their application in our
daily lives.
Premier Youth and Children’s Work Magazine is a resource
for those passionate about working
with the next generation, providing
ideas and guidance for youth leaders,
children’s workers and parents in
a variety of settings. Through this
magazine and their additional blogs,
podcasts, social media posts, radio
slots and video interviews, Premier
continues to resource ministry to children and
young people. It’s ‘Faith at Home’ supplement
offers parents and carers inspiration and ideas
with craft activities, stories and games to help
faith grown at home.
Since the start of 2020, Youth and Children’s Work has featured interviews with notable
guests including; American pastor and author John Mark Comer, award-winning rapper
Guvna B, Kim Phuc Phan Thi, known as
the ‹Napalm Girl›, who was badly burnt in
a napalm bomb attack during the Vietnam War, and the first editorial appearance of Alex Ednan-Laperouse, the brother of Natasha,
who tragically died after eating an airport
sandwich, describing how discovering Jesus
at a youth festival turned his life around.
In June 2020 this title is moving from print to a digital magazine to make it even more
accessible and relevant in this digital age, also
granting easier and more timely access to UK
and overseas subscribers. For more information
visit: youthandchildrens.work
Voice of Hope magazine
is sent to more than 35,000 Premier supporters each
quarter. This 96-page periodical includes the inspirational ‘Be
Still and Know’ scripture-based
devotional readings and prayers
which are also broadcast every
weekday on Premier Christian
Radio and Premier Praise.
Voice of Hope magazine also contains news about Premier, interviews with Premier presenters and editors, testimonies from listeners and readers on what Premier means to them, plus detailed listings on what programmes air when, across our three radio stations.

Leap of Faith - Helping the Church cross the digital dividePremier has been at the forefront of new technology since its launch 25 years ago. We have always understood that to fulfil our mission to “enable people to put faith at the heart of daily life and to bring Christ to their communities” we need to embrace innovation and new opportunities to engage with new generations of seekers.
We are living in a digital culture. The invention
of the smartphone has radically changed our
habits. Everything can now be done online!
However, the digital world can often seem
superficial…it can be hard to tell fact from fake news. Perhaps because of this, or simply
down to a lack of expertise and experience, the Church, up to this point, had not yet fully
embraced this new reality.
But now the coronavirus has changed all our
lives. At rapid speed, digital transformation
accelerated, touching all areas of life.
Everyone is affected – including the Church and even those without a smartphone or
internet access.
How we – as Christians, leaders, communities and churches – respond to this situation and the reality that unfolds will shape public
perception and impact Christianity in the UK
for generations to come.
On page 4 of this report, Peter Kerridge,
our CEO, highlights that Premier was made
“for just such a time as this” (Esther 4:14,
NLT). We will respond to this challenge
by accelerating our efforts even further to equip, connect and inspire the UK Church
to embrace new media and make the most
effective and appropriate use of technology for God’s kingdom at this time.
We are committing to groundbreaking digital initiatives for the UK Church.
The Leap of Faith campaign will seek to better serve and equip Christians in the
area of digital ministry, mission and outreach. We will aim to:
Inspire and change attitudes
towards digital through
research, education and
communications through
establishing a unique Digital
Hub for Digital Theology,
providing church ministers
and lay leaders with a
biblically sound model for
adopting digital technology
in church life
Empower and equip local
churches, big and small,
through online training and
practical support such as
a series of ‘plug and play’
packages and a dedicated
helpdesk, enabling the easy
adoption of new technology
Create a unique eco-system
of innovative tools and content,
including podcasts that will
work for any church resourced
by trusted contributors
and benefiting all Christian denominations. In close
collaboration with a range of
other agencies from across the
breadth of Church life, these
innovative plans will profoundly
change the way digital
evangelism is perceived and
used, now and in the future.
Our plans will enable every church, Christian
or community to reach beyond their walls,
and help them to attract a younger, connected
audience and demonstrate that the gospel
values remain relevant, alive and accessible
in our modern age, as well as rethinking
traditional church life, and how areas such as
pastoral care, youth and childrens’ work and
even theological training can be done online.
Premier’s Leap of Faith strategy has never
been more relevant, urgent and meaningful than
right now. At this unprecedented time and well
beyond, church life as we knew it is no more…
digital is no longer a choice but a necessity.
We are committed to equipping churches in
every part of the UK (and beyond!) to minister
well in a digital age.
Today, Christian communities must deliver a
practical response to Church relevance in a
coronavirus-impacted world.
Now is the time to join efforts: we must embrace today’s digital revolution to enhance
all aspects of church life and bring the hope
and love of Jesus to a nation and generation
in deep need. The task was always urgent; it is now existential.
Keep an eye out for more exciting
developments from Premier on the Leap of
Faith initiative.
We are so thankful to you for enabling Premier
to respond well at this time. Your support today will transform ministry for generations to come.

PREMIER+YOU: FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS
Funds to make it happenPremier is a supporter-enabled charity with two thirds of our funding from
donations, regular giving and legacies. We continue to rely on Christians from
across the UK to stand with us in this God-given mission. As our nation is rocked by
the Coronavirus pandemic, Premier continues to be a voice of hope to the UK.
Reflections on challenging timesOur fundraising has grown significantly over the years from the small network of
relationships who stood with us to fund
Premier Christian Radio into existence, back
in 1995. A quarter of a century on, Premier is much more than most people imagine.
With three radio stations, a suite of over 10 websites, four magazines, a national events
programme, as well as Premier Lifeline: the
National Christian Helpline Premier’s ministry
has grown considerably over its 25 years.
Premier’s audiences for its media content,
events and phone helpline ministry have
also grown rapidly. We should be seeing
the supporter base keeping pace; however, this is not always the case, with new radio
listeners and web visitors assuming that as
these services are free, it doesn’t cost a lot to
create and transmit good quality content. We
continue to attempt to communicate the need
for funding, while making the vast majority of
our content free to access.
Premier has three well-established income
streams. In addition to donations and committed
giving, we also generate commercial revenue
from advertising, sponsorship and magazine
subscriptions. This helps the charity spread the
risk of external influences which could negatively impact funding and so helps build stronger
financial viability for the organisation.
Commercial income has been challenging in
recent years, largely due to Brexit uncertainty.
As a consequence, Premier chose to
extend its twelve-month financial period for 2018/2019 to 18-months, ending on 31 March 2020. The financial information above right is for this full period.
Donations Premier is blessed with 24,000 active supporters who have given to the charity in
the past 18 months. Of these donors, over
two thirds are supporting the ministry through
a Regular Gift (usually on a monthly basis).
This number has remained steady and donor
retention of these Partners remains a priority.
Encouraging more supporters to switch to
committed giving is important to help us
budget well and make financially prudent spending plans. This will become even more
crucial as we move further into 2020 given the negative economic shock of the Coronavirus
crisis, which is impacting income to charities.
Commentators have estimated a 37% drop in
charity income from voluntary sources over the
course of 2020.
We are encouraged to have passed the 3,000-mark of committed supporters to our three-
year Major Gift pledge programme. Meanwhile
online donations are significant representing 8% of total donation income.
Radiothon on-air appeals continue to be a
vital fundraising activity for the charity, as
they present the most significant opportunity to engage with as many of our audiences as
possible. While Premier has different and distinct
audiences across all of our media platforms,
Premier Christian Radio alone has an audience
of 1.2 million people regularly listening, many of
whom have never given to Premier.
We are so very grateful for the support of
every Christian who stands with us in prayer
and through their financial support, whatever the amount.
The Coronavirus pandemic has impacted every
charity in the UK making the financial support of our audiences even more vital. Because of
the prayerful and financial support Premier receives, we can continue to be a voice of hope
to the UK, during these momentous times.
Commercial IncomeCommercial sources of revenue for Premier
include advertising, sponsorship, magazine
subscriptions, event tickets and ministry sales.
Premier attracts a wide range of advertisers
from businesses, charities, churches and
ministries who consider raising the profile of Christian ministries, ethical businesses and
services as core to its ministry objectives or
who simply recognise the potential impact of
marketing their brand to the massive audiences
that Premier attracts.
Digital sponsorship for Premier’s suite of
websites remains an area of potential for the
ministry and currently accounts for just under
20% of total sales income.
Income from ticket sales and sponsorship to our
events will fall due to the impact of Coronavirus
which means our 2020 events programme is cancelled. We have also seen economic
influences negatively impact our sales revenue across radio, magazines and online in March
and April 2020 as the lockdown bit.
Legacies
Premier is so grateful for every legacy gift it
receives. These special gifts help to underpin
Premier’s annual income and ensure we can
reach out further to an ever-growing audience.
All legacy gifts are received directly into our
Inspiration fund from where we ensure they are
used to maximise their impact for the ministry.
Trusts
Premier is thankful to receive support from
charitable trusts and foundations. A special
thank you to the Rank Foundation and
Jerusalem Foundation, who funded the creation
of a Premier digital archive. Premier has
amassed a significant collection of print, audio and visual content dating back to the 1960s. The creation of a digital archive for this, means
we can tell the Premier story to new audiences
for years to come.
We are delighted to continue working with the
Templeton Religion Trust on the Unbelievable: Big Questions series. This has enabled Premier
to encourage more thought and conversation
around why as Christians we believe what we
believe. We have been encouraged by the over
4 million+ views to date of our Big Conversation
series on Youtube and over 6 million engagements in total across all platforms
(radio, print, digital, podcast, video etc).
Expenditure
A decision to prioritise digital developments
within our Digital First strategy has resulted in
funds spent on a dedicated Premier Christian
News website in order to offer a truthful
Christian perspective on world events. Since
launch this site has seen strong growth and
it is clearly meeting an important need in the
Christian community.
Uncertainty over Brexit, a weak pound
against the dollar and corresponding
increases in paper, postage, alongside the
substantial and challenging costs of national
and local radio transmission costs have
impacted our expenditure.
Premier always strains to be as efficient and to achieve the best value for money that we can.
A review of costs and budgets going forward
have taken place recently as we prayerfully
consider the negative economic impact of the
Coronavirus crisis.

Leaving a legacy of hopeWhatever may be happening in the world, we take comfort from our hope and faith in God. Every hour of every day, Premier is reaching out with that hope so that everyone can know that they can rely on God’s promises for today and the future, no matter how difficult or challenging these days may be.
For no one can lay any foundation other than
the one we already have – Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 3:11 (NLT)
It was through the vision, prayers and
generosity of the Christian community 25
years ago that this ministry of radio, digital,
magazines, events and telephone helpline
was born. A quarter of a century on, this
same bedrock of vision, prayer and generosity
continues to sustain this ministry in 2020.
Throughout our lives we all take time to reflect on the people and causes we care about, and
the kind of future we want for them. Thank you
for caring about Premier’s future and if you
have made your Will, or intend to do this, we
hope you might consider a gift to Premier to
ensure this ministry will have a lasting impact
for generations to come.
We know that providing for family and loved
ones comes first, but having done that, a gift of whatever size to Premier will ensure
you are helping to build God’s kingdom long
into the future.
Only around half of people in the UK have
made a Will. Sadly, less than 10 per cent of Wills include a gift to a charity. Legacy gifts
are crucial to Premier, with these special gifts
(which are received into our Inspiration fund)
often enabling us to reach out and impact lives
above and beyond what our regular donation
income would allow.
Cathy and James told us:
“We support Premier with a gift in our Wills because we’ve supported Premier from the start and want the work to go on after we’re with Jesus.”
2020 and beyond
If you would like to join Charles and Janet and Cathy and James in supporting Premier
Contact: Claire Southall, Key Relationships Director Call: 0300 777 1221Email: legacy@premier.org.ukVisit: premier.org.uk/legacy
Charles and Janet told us:
“We support Premier with a gift in our Will because its inspiring ministry embraces the whole of the country with biblical truth in a relevant way accessible to all.”
So please consider joining the nearly 400 men and women like Charles and Janet and Cathy and
James who have already made the special commitment to include a gift to Premier in their Will,
so we can ensure that no one misses out on hearing the life-changing message of Jesus.
We want to continue to do just that for the next 25 years and beyond, knowing that God will do more than we can even imagine through Premier, so please be part of ensuring a lasting legacy of
hope for future generations by considering a gift in your Will.

So, if you have yet to make your Will and this is something you are considering, you may be
interested to know that Premier has partnered with Bequeathed, an online Will service which
enables you to make a Will at no cost to you. In addition, should you need help from a solicitor,
they can put you in touch with one, premier.org.uk/legacy
Often when we receive a legacy gift, we hear from a member of the family about how important
Premier was to their loved one and how Premier supported and encouraged them in their journey
of faith, so we are especially grateful for these special gifts which help to ensure others can be
blessed by Premier too.
