The trustees present their report and the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2023.

The Housley, Gething, Chapman and Clay Pit Charity and the PCC of St. Edmund’s Mansfield Woodhouse
In 2004 a number of “PCC” charities were amalgamated into the “Housley, Gethin, Chapman and Clay Pit Charity” (HGCCC). Due to a misunderstanding that HGCCC was a “linked” charity with the “The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St, Edmund’s Mansfield Woodhouse”, a set of joint accounts for both charities was submitted up until 2022. Following discussion with the Charity Commission and the information that they are not technically linked charities the Trustees have decided that both charities will submit separate accounts from 2023 onwards. Previous accounts will not be resubmitted, however figures relating to HGCCC will be extracted from the 2022 accounts so that accurate year on year comparisons can be made for both charities.
Trustees
The Trustees also act as Trustees for The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St, Edmund’s Mansfield Woodhouse; Charity Number 1128607.
The Trustees are the members of the Parochial Church Council of St. Edmund’s Mansfield Woodhouse.

The Housley, Gething, Chapman and Clay Pit Charity Trustees' Annual Report
Structure, governance and management
The Charity is governed by the scheme dated 15 November 2004 as amended by resolution dated 15 November 2021. The Trustees of the charity are “The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St, Edmund’s Mansfield Woodhouse”, the PCC Chair acts as the Chair of Trustees.
Objectives and activities
The objectives of the Charity are to “further the religious and other charitable work of the church of England in the parish” (Mansfield Woodhouse).
The Charity owns and runs the Stable Centre Café adjacent to the Turner Hall on Church Street Mansfield Woodhouse.
Volunteers
The charity is grateful for the unstinting efforts of all its volunteers who are involved in in the day to day running of the Stable Centre. The Trustees particularly wish to thank all those involved in the continued rebuilding of custom following the disruption caused by the Covid Pandemic and its associated restrictions.
Public Benefit
The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirement in the Charities Act 2011 with regard to Public Benefit.
Safeguarding
Staff and Volunteers come under the Safeguarding Policies of The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St, Edmund’s Mansfield Woodhouse (PCC)
The PCC has complied with the duty under section 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016 (duty to have regard to House of Bishops' guidance on safeguarding children and vulnerable adults).
Financial review
122 Vale Road is tenanted and the rent is paid directly to the PCC who maintain the property and receive the rent as an ongoing grant.
During the year £30,000 was made in grants to the PCC to ensure that all of its financial commitments were able to be met. The main call for such grants are to enable the PCC to meet its everyday church expenses, namely its ability to pay full diocesan share.
Reserves
Investment and Deposit accounts are held by CCLA, via Southwell and Nottingham DBF as custodian trustee. Quarterly interest is paid into the Deposit accounts which then allow the Trustees to assist Stable Centre when necessary and make grants to the PCC as and when requested, dependant on available funds.
Summary of main achievements
Grants have been made to the PCC of St. Edmund’s Mansfield Woodhouse to further the religious and other charitable work of the church of England in the parish.

The Stable Centre operates Monday to Friday and Saturday once a month. The Stable Centre continued to provide reasonably low-cost meals with a seemingly growing customer base and reasonable trading throughout 2024. It did, however, have to purchase a New Gas Boiler at considerable cost, which depleted its cash reserves.
The Sherwood Forest Foodbank runs from the Stable Centre on a Monday and Thursday Afternoon. Their Warehouse also operates out of the Stable Centre basement.
