Other funds also held which are NOT required to be included in our reserves are:

(e) Children/Youth Workers Fund

(f} Redevelopment Fund

Our Reserves

(a) General Fund

Trinity intends to hold in reserve sufficient money in the General Fund to cover three months’ (13 weeks) average expenditure in a normal (non-pandemic) year, approx. £40,000. At the end of the financial year, £32,477 .37 was available, which provides contingency cover for approximately 10 weeks. This compares to the position a year earlier, when ona like for like basis, contingency cover was 14 weeks, a reduction of 4 weeks. Compared to 2020/21 General Fund overall Reserves have decreased by £1,798.38, although the mix has changed from General Fund Account to TMCP Account as referenced in d) below.

In the next 12 months we have sufficient cash to meet our commitments, but beyond this we have a significant forecast deficit, driven by projected increasing utility and staff costs and falling giving/grants. We will use our current Reserves to manage year 2022/23, together with a suite of measures to improve the position in 2024 and 2025 (ie: Further Grants, Overheads Challenge, Review of Staffing Levels and Cost Optimisation with other Churches)

----- Start of picture text -----
(bo) Tuesday Coffee Group
The Tuesday Coffee Group operates as an internal organisation reporting to the Church Council. The
group raises money for good causes, and the work of Trinity. All money raised in a year, is allocated, and
then expensed in the following year. The Group has had minimal meetings since the pandemic and will
close in the 2022/23 financial year. Residual funds will be distributed to good causes in agreement with
the Coffee Group members
(c) Designated Funds
----- End of picture text -----

These chiefly comprise the Memorial Funds and the Property Reserve Fund. The Memorial Fund holds money given to Trinity by or in memory of members who have passed away (see Appendix C to Explanatory Notes to Standard Form of Accounts), and designated for appropriate church development projects. The policy for the Property Reserve Fund is based on an annual budget set for major repair works, which was reduced as a part of tightening budgetary control, to £7,000 per annum in 2019/20 and will continue as such. The Property Reserve Fund currently sits at £78,000, just below its agreed limit of £80,000. It was agreed at Church Council to make a voluntary donation of £12,000 to the Methodist Ministers Pensions Reserve Fund during 2021/22 and this was funded from the Property Reserve Fund. A bequest of £10,000 from Anne Hunter was used to largely backfill this payment leaving the fund £2,000 behind its target level. Through the Resources Group, we are investigating a staged replacement of Trinity’s central heating boilers and the Property Reserve Fund would be used to facilitate this. Building and content are currently insured at £7.86m.

(d) Legacies and Bequests These are TMCP Model Trust Bequests and benefited from a £25,000 bequest in 2021/22. Subject to approval, it is proposed to use a proportion of this to fund our Youth and Children’s work in the 2022/23 financial year, in memory of the benefactor (see Appendix B to Explanatory Notes to Standard Form of Accounts

5. Policy for Restricted Funds

(e) Children/Youth Worker Fund

This fund supports the employment of the part-time Youth Worker and Children Worker's roles. The fund is financed by: - AWMethodist Church Newcastie Upon Tyne District Grant, to the value of £48,579.58 over4

years which commenced 1 Sept 2019 - The Point, an independent church in Hexham - The Children’s worker also supports West End Church in Hexham on a reimbursable basis. - It is intended to supplement the fund with a contribution from the TMCP account as discussed in 4d) above The annual cost of the Youth & Children’s Worker was £36,767.52, so the above Grants cover approximately 52% of the cost, with the balance coming from the General Fund. We are also exploring sharing the costs and services of our Youth & Children’s Workers with other Christian Establishments in the Tynedale Area

(f) Redevelopment Fund

This fund holds £2,973.27 and was held as the starting point for the redevelopment of the Church Foyer. This project was put on hold during the pandemic and remains as such. We may require some minor electrical works and re-decoration in the foyer this coming financial year and if so will use this fund.
