Trustees' Report

The trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2020.

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in Note 1 to the accounts and comply with the Charities Act 2011 and “Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016).

Objectives and Activities

The role of the PCC is to co-operate with the incumbent in promoting the whole mission of the church in the parish and beyond, in the context of pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical work.

The PCC is also responsible for the maintenance of the church buildings and its grounds.

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

Significant activities

Despite the difficulties and restrictions encountered as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, the PCC have pursued their Mission and Vision statements: “We are here to worship God, make disciples and transform our communities by demonstrating the life and love of Jesus. We aim to grow up into maturity, out into our communities, together towards unity and more in quantity.”

The PCC is grateful to all volunteers who have offered support during the year.

Achievements and Performance

Overview of 2020

2020 was another busy year for All Saints church, starting the year in vacancy, with everything else appearing normal. The Parish Profile was updated to reflect the changes in outlook over the previous three years and the post of Rector was about to be advertised when Covid-19 restrictions first came into force. Our first response was to help set up and coordinate the 'Here to Help' volunteer scheme with others in the community, to ensure the elderly and vulnerable were kept safe and well.

Worship services quickly moved online, following the usual 10am service format, but with individuals recording themselves rather than appearing 'live'. After some experimentation, YouTube was found to be the best platform to distribute the resulting video service. Prayer evenings continued weekly using Zoom, which most were able to access, and PCC meetings were also held over Zoom from April onwards.

It was decided to press ahead with Rector recruitment, despite the uncertain outlook, which turned out to be a good decision, with a good selection of candidates applying for the post during May and our preferred candidate accepting the post after interview in June. Coming to the end of her Maternity Leave, Rev. Lizzy Holland joined us as Rector Designate at the start of October, before being formally instituted in December.

Many activities were organised by our Children & Families Worker, making contact with many parents and children who wouldn't otherwise visit the church buildings. Our relationship with Allesley Primary School is on hold, due to Covid restrictions, including 'Open The Book' assemblies and whole school services and other events in church at Easter, Harvest and Advent.

Attendance is very difficult to gauge now, but when 'in person' services were allowed, there were always 15-20 attending at either 8am or 6pm. Online services attract between 50 and 100 'screens' each Sunday when they premiere, with more 'catching up' at a later time.

Some money from the legacy received a couple of years ago has continued to be spent on tree maintenance (churchyard northern boundary hedge and yew bushes), resurfaced paths from the car park down to the hall, Rectory gate and front porch, including disabled ramp access; new central heating boiler for the church hall, materials for the new porch floor and temporary live streaming equipment. The PCC has also used it to made gifts to a range of other good causes throughout the year.

Looking forward to 2021, the PCC, our Children & Families Worker, Worship Enabler and our wonderful body of other volunteers will together ensure that there is still a full programme of worship services (3 per Sunday, plus festivals and Baptisms) and that most other activities and events will continue too. Our Church Administrator, who is also our Safeguarding Officer and Electoral Roll Officer, will ensure that Weddings and Funerals are covered, and all other essential administration is handled professionally. We intend this year to be a year of re-examining where we are as a church and who God is calling us to be, as inevitably our mission and vision will have been affected by Covid-19. This will be done, in part, through introducing a whole church survey to understand people’s experiences and dreams for the future, and through whole church meetings where we can explore and discuss more fully where God is leading us.

Page 3

The focus for the year is to keep things “simple, gentle, connected”. Simple means that we are aware of the exhaustion and pressure the pandemic has brought and so we aim to keep our ministry simple for this year, and not put pressure on ourselves to begin new initiatives, but instead take time to pray and see where God is leading us. Gentle means that we are gentle with ourselves and one another, again not putting pressure on one another, and this spirit is key as we seek to learn new skills, such as livestreaming, and approach church life in new ways. Connected means that the focus for the year is finding ways to help people connect with one another and with God, especially when that is difficult to do in person. We continue to pray and seek God’s guidance for us as a community and are excited to see where we will be led.

Recognition and measurement All financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at transaction price (including tfftnsaclion costsl, except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value (which is normally the transaction price excluding transaction costs), unless the arrangement conslilutes a financing transaction.

All Saints Parish Church, Allesley Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2020 Debt instruments Debt instruments which meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. lal The contractual return to the holder is lil a fixed amount," lill a positive fixed rate or a positive variable rate,. or liiil a combination of a positive or a negative fixed rate and a positive variable rate. Ibl The contract may provide for repayments of the principal or the return to the holder (but not both) to be linked to a single ￿levant observable index of general price inflation of the currency in which the debt instrument is denominated, provided such links are not leveraged. Icl The contract may provide for a detemiinable variation of the return to the holder during the life of the instrument, provided that lil the new rate satisfies condition lal and the variation is not contingent on future events other than 111 a change of a contractual variable rate", 121 to protect the holder against credit deterioration of the issuer, 131 changes in levies applied by a central bank or arising from changes in relevant taxation or law., or lill the new rate is a market rale of interest and satisfies condition lal. Idl There is no contractual provision that could, by its terms, result in the holder losing the principal amount or any interest attributable lo the current period or prior periods. lel Conlraclual provisions that permit the issuer to prepay a debt instrument or permit the holder lo put il back to the issuer before malurily are not conlingenl on fvjture events, other than lo protect the holder against the credit delerioralion of the issuer or a change in control of the issuer, or to protect the holder or issuer against changes in levies applied by a central bank or arising from changes in relevant laxalion or law. lfj Conlraclual provisions may permit the extension of the term of the debt instrument, provided that the return lo the holder and any other contractual provisions applicable during the extended term satisfy the conditions of paragraphs lal to Icl.

Where fair value cannot be measured reliably, investments are measured at cost less impairment. Investments in subsidiaries and associates are measured at cost less impairment.

All Saints Parish Church, Allesley Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2020 DgfiTvative fiTnancial instrumgnts The charity uses derivative financial instruments to reduce exposure to foreign exchange risk an interest rate movements. The charity does not hold or Issue derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. Derivatives are initl8lly recognised at fair value at the dale a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently reMeasU￿d to their fair value at each reporting dale. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in statement of financial activities immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which event the liming of the recognition in statement of financial activities depends on the nature of the hedge relationship. Fair value measurement The best eviden￿ of fair value is a quoted price for an identical asset in an active market. When quoted prices are unavailable, the price of a recent transaction for an identical asset provides evidence of fair value as long as there has not been a significant change in economic circumstances or a significant lapse of time since the transaction look place. If the market is not active and recent transactions of an identical asset on their own are not a good estimate of fair value, the fair value is estimated by using a valuation technique. 2 Income from charitable activities Unrestricted funds Restricted funds Total 2020 Total 2019 General Don8tions and gifts- ￿Strittted Donations and gifts Legacies and bequests Donated goods and services Gift Aid lax reclaimed 1,650 97,229 14,232 3,090 19,147 89,072 25,228 804 21,252 89,072 25,228 804 21,252 136,356 136,356 135,348 3 Investment income Unrestricted funds Restricted funds Total 2020 Total 2019 General Interest retsivable and similar income", Interest receivable on bank deposits 1,050 1,050 2,287 Page 13
