THE FRIENDS OF ALL SAINTS CHURCH, SHILLINGTON TREASURER’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR TO 31 DECEMBER 2021 AGM - 31 MARCH 2022
The work of the Committee is to raise funds for, and to arrange the procurement of, a variety of works projects needed for the repair and maintenance of All Saints’ Church, Shillington. One of the main sources of these funds is by inviting members to contribute annual subscriptions and the organisation, by the committee, of a number of fundraising events. The accounts for the calendar year 2021 are attached.
Firstly, annual subscriptions received for the year amounted to £7,191, an increase of almost a quarter year on year. Many thanks to everyone who dug deep! These figures include the gift aid we were able to secure on those subscriptions from members who were able to sign the necessary tax declarations. We are particularly grateful to Joy Robertson who co-ordinated all of this fundraising work for us.
We were very grateful to the very generous donations to the Friends from those attending the funeral and reception for our late committee member, John Whitehall. In particular, we would like to thank Liz for her great generosity in this respect. The Chair has mentioned all the work that John did over the years, not only for the friends, but for the church and parish as a whole. We are missing him.
We were also grateful for a number of other donations amounting to £421 in the year.
This was, of course, the second year of Coronavirus restrictions but the Committee were eventually allowed to begin again the sterling work needed to organise some fund-raising events. Inside the church, we held a film sing-a-long evening and two other music concerts, realising in total £2,114.
As mentioned in the Chair’s report, in September we jointly organised another Bike N Hike and Children’s Bear Hunt. This was again successful and we were able to share the £230 raised with Beds and Herts Historic Churches Trust. The traditional Flying Teddies event we held raised a further £202.
We would like to thank all those who volunteered to run the Sunday teas through the summer months. Through their commitment and hard work, a great total of £1,564 was realised.
Turning to our spend on projects undertaken during the year, we were able to complete works to the value of £30,823, as analysed in the accounts. We hope to progress these and other projects further this year. We applied for a number of grants and a total of £14,875 was received, as set out in the Chair’s report.
We would like to thank all of you who have assisted in fundraising, not only towards these projects, but towards all of those that will also be needed in the future to the various parts of the building and grounds.
As you will undoubtedly be aware, the Church and the land around it is, and will continue to be, in constant need of on-going maintenance. We endeavour to seek out Grants, where possible, and in this respect there are a number of small trusts and charities which can assist us. Inevitably, however, their own funds are stretched by the many requests they receive every year. We always welcome any new ideas members may have for additional sources of funds to enable us to have a good chance to undertake the projects both the Diocese and our own advisors have identified for our attention.
