Jill Howard-Duff stepped forward and offered to take up the mantle of preparing the Rotas for Stewards, Readers, Intercessors, including the most important Tea and Coffee rota for after Sunday Coffee. Currently we have a healthy group of volunteers, some of whom cover several roles on a regular basis. Each month Jill sends an email out to volunteers and ask them when they are available to help. Individuals are encouraged to swop dates if they are not able to make a pre-arranged date, and this seems to work well with everyone helping each other out. Jill would like to extend a note of thanks to Edwin for all his past work in this area. If any members of the church would like to volunteer for any of the roles, or they would like to talk to Jill as to what is involved could they pass their details to Tina in the church office and Jill will contact them directly. Finally a big thank you goes out to all the current volunteers for keeping the rotas running reasonable smoothly. ## **Jill Howard-Duff Stewardship.** |**Stewards, Intercessors, **|**Readers, Cofee rota and Bells.**|**Readers, Cofee rota and Bells.**|| |---|---|---|---| |Edwin Cat/KathyCat|Geof Skyes|GeofreyMann|Christopher Millard| |Pauline Edge|Tina Wareham|Ian McLean|HollyPennington| |Stuart Ellison|George Wat|Frances Morgan|Ann Sherburn-Hall| |Jim Grevat|AnthonyWilliams|Beth PerringEvans|Hester Whitle| |Carole Hampson|Bob Wilson/Carole

As I look back over the last twelve months, I am left with one overriding impression - that the Parish of Headley is a loving one. My wife Hannah and I have felt particularly welcomed, supported, encouraged, and cared for from day one and overwhelmingly so during the time I was off unwell. Having emerged from a long interregnum I think we need to be so grateful to the team that kept the parish functioning so smoothly during this transitional year. I say team, yet already it seems more like family to me. I want to pick out a few individuals, which of course means I’m at risk of leaving others out who equally merit praise and thanks, but nevertheless, here goes! Christine Leonard and Edwin Catt have been super Churchwardens, and since Edwin stepped down last September, Ian Jenkins has assisted Christine splendidly in his role as Deputy Churchwarden. 6 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 Helen Kempster is a constant source of wisdom and support, and I am particularly grateful to her for so willingly taking the reins over the four months I was off sick. Our administrative lynchpin and all-around wonder person that is Tina Wareham works brilliantly and tirelessly on all our behalf’s and I’m ever so grateful to her for her energetic amenability. Thank you to the PCC for your essential work ensuring we operate with due diligence, to our Treasurer, Bob and Secretary, Ann, to the social committee for catering so beautifully for the countless events that have taken place, to Chris Millard for his work on the fabric of church and churchyard, to all of you I haven’t named, but should. There weren’t many changes made in my first year as Incumbent, but I am nevertheless very grateful for the way the ASH family has adapted to the new service cards, the monthly-ish Baptism services, the recent launch of an Alpha Course and the arrival of filter coffee! APCMs are all about looking back and celebrating what’s been but I can’t help but want to look forward to what is yet to come. Like any healthy organism we need to continue to grow - in number (grow wide), in depth of relationship to God and one another (grow deep), and we need to grow younger, so we truly reflect the demographics of our Parish (grow young). To that end, I hope that the next 12-24 months will see some new initiatives at ASH: the establishment of home groups to help us grow deeper in our discipleship and fellowship; Messy Church to encourage younger families to worship and strengthen our relationship with our largest weekly congregation - The Holme Primary School; we will continue providing pastoral care for life events, for those in need and opportunities such as seasonal festival services and the Alpha Course for people to hear, understand and respond to the Good News of the Gospel. To conclude, I thank God for this last year at ASH and all that we’ve been through together, both good and not so good, may it all be to His glory.

The boiler shed in the churchyard needs a replacement roof and work to replace this will be carried out in the summer of 2023. ## **Social Committee Report TW** - The report had been submitted to all PCC Members prior to meeting and would be taken as read. - There will be a free New Year’s Eve organ recital in the church from 2.30pm and all are welcome. - Curry Lunch to be held on February 23[rd ] 2023. ## **Safeguarding.** - PCC members had completed the outstanding training and a full update on safeguarding would be given in 2023. ## **Church Wardens’ Report.** - Ian Jenkins would be standing in as Church Warden until the APCM in April 2023. - Helen passed a letter of thanks from the RBL for the church’s contribution to the poppy appeal in the amount of £120. 15 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 - Helen was thanked for procuring the services of Bugler for Remembrance Sunday which was an improvement over a recording. She was asked to pass on the PCCs thanks to the bugler. ## **Diocesan Synod.** - The PCC representative was not able to attend the re-scheduled meeting as only one day’s notice was given. Helen received all the slides and notes of the meeting. **………………………………………….** ## **PCC Meeting held on 25[th] January 2023.** ## **Finance Reports** - Accounts had previously been distributed to PCC prior to meeting. - Slight increase in collection up to £17,820.

A PCC member raised the question that the Diocese had received rental for the rectory during the vacancy, and there had been cleaning costs for the rectory on departure of the occupant. However, these existential costs will not have any consequences for a reduction in parish share. - Total cost for the year £96,543. Fundraising target for 2023 is set at £1,250 per month with additional activities. - Accounts were approved. The committee acknowledge Bob Wilson for his work in preparing the accounts and budget for 2023 and it was agreed that he be thanked for his hard work. ## **FOASH.** - Finances stood at £5,200.

Councilor Anthony Williams is seeking a grant of £3,000 for the installation of a commercial dish washer for the kitchen, which would be an enormous asset when letting out the hall. - Sale of ‘FOASH’ badges have gone on sale and have been well received, pendants are also available. Formal launch will take place in late April. Donations start from £5 per month to become a ‘friend of FOASH’. - Wednesday 31[st] ~~M~~ ay the coach trip to Oxford is planned to include evensong. ## **Buildings and Churchyard. Report previously distributed. Highlights as follows:** 16 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 - Owner of property with Holly trees had been informed that the church was not in a position to carrying out the work due to lack of funds.

Chris Cole (art class) has reduced his Wednesday class due to lack of attendees. Headley Parish Council will hold their monthly meeting in the hall and have paid for the whole year. There is not much availability in the calendar for a new regular weekly spot, however the outlook for the hall in 2023 is very positive. - Curry Lunch for the Rosemary foundation will now take place on 15[th] February at 1pm. ## **Sunday School, Holme School, Messy Church Activities.** - Yann thanked Helen for standing in for him during his recent absence. He advised that he is now taking school assemblies. - Messy church plans are back on track with a working format ideal for preschool children and infants with parents in attendance. He asked for volunteers to help with the arrangements. This will include Arts and Crafts and providing refreshments at the end of the session. Start date under review as thoughts and plans are developed. If any PCC members would like to volunteer, then please contact Yann directly.. - Yann raised a point regarding the current communion services that are quite long and do not cater for the needs of children in the congregation. He posed the topic for discussion among PCC members as to what could be adapted or altered to make children more inclusive. It was suggested that the big services such as Easter/Christmas could be services that are more inclusive. If PCC 17 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 members had any thoughts or ideas to contact Yann directly or bring them to the next meeting. **Deanery Synod:** Chris updated the meeting that he had not received any communication regarding the next meeting. Helen thought that the next meeting was to be held in May, although this was not confirmed. **Climate Change:** This topic had been raised at several PCC meetings but had been on hold due to covid restrictions. Those PCC members who were involved in climate change proposals had subsequently left the PCC. It was noted the Diocese have some schemes relating to CC and it was agreed to explore what was on offer and to report when this was done. ## **Safeguarding** - Several members remain outstanding in completing their safeguarding training. Some stated they had difficulty in accessing the link. A new link will be sent to PCC members. Yann stated that all training was to be completed by the APCM in April. ## **APCM 2023 date.** The date for the APCM will take place on Sunday 23[rd] April. Yann advised that Christine Leonard will be stepping down as Church Warden. If any PCC member was interested in the position and would like to discuss what the role entails to contact him directly. ## **Church Warden Update** - Quinquennial walk about will need to be started at the end of 2023, beginning of 2024. Prior to this a new Church Architect will need to be engaged. This will be undertaken by the new PCC post APCM. - The Bishop of Guildford will visit Headley on the 5[th] March for the 10am service. It was agreed a small reception will be held in the church centre following the service for people to meet the bishop. Details to be discussed at social committee meeting. AOB - Yann is planning to run a lent Alpha course in Headley. Proposed date is 7[th] March on a Tuesday evening starting at 7pm. Course will run for 12 **weeks** and each week a hot supper will be provided. Yann asked the social committee to consider how this could be implemented. - Yann introduced the proposal that he will be potentially moving away from the yearly lectionary and bringing in other areas of the bible that are currently not included to create a depth to readings and the Gospel. The changes include the intercessions. He will bring further thoughts to the next meeting. - A member of the congregation contacted a PCC member regarding the announcement that the Church of England was pledging £100m to address past wrongs after an investment fund was found to have historic links to slavery. The member was uncomfortable with this decision given that parish such as our own were struggling to pay the parish share. There was a request for a letter to be sent to the Diocese so that the matter could be discussed directly with parishioners who had no say in this matter. YD advised PCC members that this matter was not related to the Diocese, being announced by 18 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 the Church Commissioners. PCC members were directed to the appropriate website for further information. Following a discussion it was decided that a letter would not be sent to the diocese at this time. It was agreed that this decision would be communicated with the member of the congregation along with background information of the new fund. **………………………………………..** ## **PCC Meeting 22[nd] March 2023** ## **Finance: Report circulated to PCC prior to meeting.** - Accounts presented in format in preparation for approval by Anthony Williams ahead of the APCM. Anthony Williams to be confirmed as the new examiner at the APCM.

Formal approval for this will be required by letter to the bank. Tina’s name will be added, and Olwen’s name (former administrator) will be removed. Matter approved by PCC. - Increase in rental for Windmill Drive at the renewal of the lease was discussed. Considerations was given to raising the rental by 10% in line with inflation. Current tenants have been reliable and carry out minor repairs themselves. It was agreed that the new rental increase would be set at 5% - It was agreed that work to the floor in the church hall would be carried out at a cost of £2,500. The work will be scheduled for the summer period. Proposed by Keith and seconded by Hester W. ## **FOASH** - Finances stand at £11,641. The grant is expected from East Hants District Council for a dishwasher for the kitchen. Plans for the new kitchen were put forward, this would include moving the wall of the Blaney room, thus making the hall more attractive. Purchase of a range cooker, and installation of a new sink. Estimates for this work are in the region of £23k. Currently FOASH have around half of the cost. No decisions have been made and this matter will be visited in future meetings. - The official FOASH launch will be held on 29[th] April. Invitations will be sent out to local business and people in the community inviting them to participate in the launch to be held in ~~on~~ the Church Hall. The event will be held between 2-4pm and will include a cream team. It is proposed that the church and the hall will be set up to showcase what ~~was~~ Headley has to offer, such as weddings, funerals with a complete service holding receptions and refreshments in the hall. Proposals are being considered to hold a Wedding dress exhibition complete with flower bouquets, and pedestals, as well as show casing how the font will look for a baptism. The current booklet on the History of Headley will be given an update. IJ is looking for support with the fundraising and all options will be considered. The PCC were encouraged to get involved, and should contact Ian for further details on this exciting project. ## **Buildings and Churchyard.** 19 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 - Holly Trees. Owner of the house where the Holly Trees are located has financed the removal of the trees. BW and a small team of volunteers have reduced the remains of the trees to ground level. Clearance has exposed graves in this area. Relatives can now tidy the graves in due course. - Volunteers are needed to tidy the ~~of~~ churchyard on Saturday 8[th] April. The meeting between EHDC on maintenance of the Churchyard has not yet taken place. Big Help Out day on 8[th] May. Information on how the community can get involved in the churchyard will be advertised in due course. ## **Social Committee- report pending** - Social committee continues with their plans for the Coronation. Several new members have joined the team. Numbers for the coronation have risen to over 100 tickets sold. - Alpha course supper is being considered by the social committee on how this can be achieved. - The Oxford coach trip will take place on 31[st] May and is open to non-church members. - Soup Sunday returns for the lent period and will be held following the 10 am service in the church hall. ## **Holme School update including other activities.** - Yann reported to the PCC that the Holme School had recently gone through their Ofsted Inspection. Yann asked for the PCC to pray for the school as they wait the result of the inspection. - Assemblies at the school were going well and the Bishop of Guildford who on his recent visit to the church really appreciated the children from the Holme School teaching the bishop a new song. - Yann reported to the PCC that the school were looking for people to volunteer at the school. It was recalled by some PCC Members that the school preferred to have volunteers from parents with the children in the school. Yann agreed to clarify this matter with the school for the next meeting and give an update on whether the policy of non-parental volunteers would be welcome. - The Alpha course got off to a positive start with 24 attendees, mostly members of the congregation. The first session was very successful with Yann reporting that people were discovering and bonding with each other. The course looks to be an exciting event. The social committee were congratulated on the food which was served for supper. ## **Synod Meeting update- no meetings have recently been held.** ## **Safeguarding** - Outstanding training is almost completed. Access to the domestic violence training had caused a few technical problems however, this has subsequently been resolved. This particular course raises elements of awareness of domestic violence which participants may not have been familiar with. - A safeguarding newsletter will be issued later in the month. 20 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 - The current safeguarding policy will need updating at the next meeting in May following the APCM. The notices around the church will be updated after the next meeting. ## **APCM Update** - Notice of the forthcoming APCM will be displayed two Sundays before the meeting. - Committee holders were reminded that all reports for the year need to be submitted by the 30[th] March to ASH. - Following the forthcoming retirement of Christine Leonard as church warden, there will be two vacancies for 2023. One person has shown interest however, the application form has not yet been received. Nominations in writing need to be submitted before the APCM to Yann directly. - Deanery Synod has one vacancy. - PCC Members Keith Fairbrass and Tina Wareham are nominated to be members of the PCC at the APCM. - Electoral Roll office position is vacant following the retirement of Carol Wilson. - • PCC secretary’s annual report for the period April 2022- to March 2023 is underway. ## **AOB** - Yann thanked everyone for attending the meeting. In closing the meeting he thanked Christine Leonard who was stepping down as church warden for all her hard work during his recent absence and for her long service as church warden. ## **This concludes the annual report for 2023 on the meetings of the PCC and the activities of the Parish generally in accordance with Church representation rules part 9.** ## **Ann Sherburn-Hall PCC Secretary.** **………………………………………………………………………………………………** ## **CHURCH WARDENS’ REPORT 2022-2023** I don’t know whether to be relieved or sad that this is my final churchwarden’s report. This final year has certainly been the biggest roller coaster of all. Starting with an interregnum, then welcoming Yann and his family to the parish, his subsequent illness and, thank the Lord, his recovery and gradual return to full health. Edwin Catt retired in September and I have been very grateful for the help and ideas from Ian Jenkins which has eased the situation for the second half of the year. As stated in the BOOK OF RULES it is the duty of a churchwarden, while working with the incumbent, to oversee the smooth running of the parish affairs and maintenance of the fabric of the church, churchyard, buildings and land. If it was that simple there wouldn’t be the need for such a large handbook but as we all know there are hundreds of variations to every situation. 21 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 The most important tool that a churchwarden has is the PCC and All Saints is fortunate to be well served by an enthusiastic team. One of the most arduous tasks is keeping the church solvent and the accounts in order. For many years Bob Wilson has done a sterling job in understanding and administering our complicated system and I’m pleased that Keith Fairbrass has now taken over chairmanship of the finance committee and is also becoming acquainted with the vagaries of the system. Although we have fallen two months in arrears with our parish share for 2022/23 we have otherwise, under Bob’s guidance, pulled ourselves up after the disasters of covid. The figures are improving steadily and our emergency “roof falling in” fund is still intact. Over the last year there has been a steady increase in attendance at services which is reflected in the collection’s week on week. Hopefully the new faces will forgive this churchwarden for taking quite a while to remember all their names. There have been, and always will be disagreements about the churchyard and burials but I haven’t had to resort to arresting anyone for striking someone else, or evict anyone from church for disrupting divine service, neither have I been able to use my right to graze my sheep in the churchyard. Levity aside, I’m pleased that we have now completed the formal closure of the churchyard and there only remains the need to work with EHDC in the general upkeep of the grounds, supplemented by the voluntary work organised by Chris Millard in his role as chairman of the buildings and churchyard committee. The fabric of the church is in good condition with no outstanding major projects in the offing. The church centre is not so fortunate. Like many of us, it is suffering from age related aches and pains. It is a 1960’s building and needs constant repair. The best solution would be to knock it down and build a new, fit for purpose building with all the modern greener advantages; perhaps a consideration for the future and some serious fund raising. The social committee under Tina Wareham’s chairmanship has excelled this year with more events than ever, with a wider variety and continually improving catering, and fresh coffee! These days safeguarding is always an issue and we’ve benefited from having Margaret Locke as safeguarding officer checking that all the PCC members are up to date with their training and making sure those who come to church and use our facilities are aware of where to go if there is a problem. This is a problem that is constantly around but not always appreciated and acted on. From Ann’s excellent report you will see the width of subjects covered by the PCC through the year and I hope the congregation appreciate the time spent on any subject they raise. I hope you’d agree that our Parish Magazine is a great asset and a useful tool for keeping in touch with the wider parish. This year’s increase in price has been long overdue and I hope won’t have meant a loss of subscribers. It is organised by a small team among whom there have been Carole and John Wilson; they have organised the efficient delivery of the magazine every month and the collection of the annual subs for so many years that I can’t remember who did it before. They have 22 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 decided to retire from the post and I’d like to express my gratitude to them both for their willingness in undertaking this essential task for so long. It has been a privilege and pleasure to have been your churchwarden several times over the years; when I started as a deputy warden under Michael Semple I never dreamt how interesting it would be, it has been very rewarding being involved with everything that goes on and I thoroughly recommend the job to future volunteers Christine Leonard Church Warden ## **Musical Director’s Report: All Saints Headley, 2022 to 2023 CHOIR** Since joining All Saints community in September 2022, I have played the organ for regular Sunday morning services and baptisms. In late October I took the choir for weekly rehearsals, the main aim of which was for a Nine Lessons Carol service on the 18th December, which was very successful. The three months leading up to Christmas were a good opportunity to get to know the choir. As Christmas is an important part of the Christian calendar, some “extras” were taken in to swell the numbers. At this time the choir totalled twenty members on average and Jonathan Gainey-Brown (organ) and Keith Henderson (guitar) in offering their talents added greatly to the carol celebration. Since Christmas there have been no choir practises. However, it would be useful that the rehearsals were to resume on a once or twice-weekly basis. A few choir members have expressed a desire to include more hymns from Mission Praise as well as to tackle new music. This is what I should like to embark upon in the knowledge that it will take a little time. The complement of regular members is between ten and twelve – mostly sopranos and altos, and this does place a limitation on the choice and range of music. To address this I am happy to ‘tailor’ any musical settings according to the choir’s strengths. For Maundy Thursday this year, the Taize chorus, ‘O Lord hear my prayer’ has been included as a ‘humble’ arrangement for choir and organ. I wish to extend my gratitude to Helen, Simon, Yann and Tina for all the advice and guidance they have given to me since September. ## **Matthew Smith ALCM LLCM(td) FGMS** ## **FARNHAM DEANERY SYNOD** The Rev. Richard Bodle is the Area Dean and he is from St Alban's, Hindhead. The main initiative within the Deanery is the Parish Needs Process (PNP), the main way of embedding the Transforming Church, Transforming Lives (TLTC) initiative of the Church of England. A meeting of the Deanery was held in September where Church Development Plans (CDP) were reviewed and elements that supported TCTL were identified and opportunities to improve these were discussed. The first drafts of the PNP were expected by the end of March this year and further meetings will be scheduled when these are 23 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 available.The next meeting of the Deanery Synod is on 9th May and we are encouraged to fill our allocation of members. Chris Millard Deanery Synod ## **BUILDINGS & CHURCHYARD** ## **Churchyard Maintenance** The churchyard is now closed and therefore has become the responsibility of the EHDC since April 2022. There appears to be no documented scope for the maintenance work that is to be expected from EHDC. We are intending to have an on-site inspection with the EHDC representative and their contractor, NORSE, but this has still to be finalized. Anthony Williams is supporting the PCC in our contacting the EHDC representative. There is a continued problem of crows roosting in the church rafters. It has not been possible, so far, to arrange for a builder to block their access hole by the tower. It is intended that this will be completed in the next year. A generous donation was received from Nick Goodhew of Tithe Barn towards the removal of the 30 foot tall holly trees bordering his property. This work was partially contracted to DR Jones of Lindford who cleared most of the debris at no charge, as a further charitable donation. This left the trees as 10 foot stumps and these have now mostly been reduced to ground level by a team of volunteers (Bob Wilson, Jim Wood and Tim Deacon). Some further tidying is required. The notification of the tree felling was circulated to the neighbouring properties by Headley Council and this prompted further complaints about the bordering hedges. These have both been addressed. The roof of the boiler-room has rotted completely and needs to be replaced. ## **Churchyard Signs- Churchyard Noticeboards** There are now distinct signs in the churchyard to remind visitors of their responsibilities. These warn that inappropriate grave decorations will be removed. The noticeboards on either side of the Lychgate are rotten. Repairs will be attempted to keep them in one piece but they really need to be replaced. ## **Church Centre Maintenance** The Church Centre has on going number of minor maintenance tasks which are mostly addressed in a short space of time. ## **The Boiler** Of great concern is that the reasonably new boiler continues to lose pressure. This means that groups that have hired the hall arrive to find it cold. We shall be addressing this with the installer, under the warranty, and get the boiler working consistently. ## **The Ceiling** The failure of one panel in the ceiling has highlighted the fragile nature of the materials used (unsupported plasterboard). The broken panel will be replaced shortly and we must see what remedial work is required to prevent further panels from falling. 24 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 ## **Volunteering in the Churchyard** We keep the churchyard and buildings looking smart through the efforts of regular and occasional volunteers. Our regulars are George Watt, who clears the rubbish and cuttings every week, and the Horsfield family, who maintain the open Remembrance Garden. The Wilson family has taken on the clearing of brambles and rhododendron and will replace it with a scenic tree. We held a volunteer meeting in the hope of recruiting new volunteers from the village to help on a regular basis in small areas of the churchyard but subsequent to the meeting no new helpers have volunteered . If anyone is interested in helping, please make contact through the church office. At the beginning of October, we had a successful volunteers’ morning which tidied the area from the Lynch gate to the Church door and completed several other jobs. There will be plenty of opportunities in the coming year for people to join in especially on 8[th] May which is volunteer day as part of the Coronation celebrations. ## **Chris Millard Buildings and Churchyard Committee** ## **FoASH (Friends of All Saints Headley)** As I sit here to write this report for the APCM, I am transported back to a gloriously sunny day in July 2019, a Sunday, the day of the Mens’ Wimbledon Final but, principally, the first real fundraising activity under the auspices of ‘the Friends’. The Mile of Pennies captured the imagination of the community, not just the congregation, and many people and young children turned out to lay the pennies they, or others, had been saving over the previous year. A marked measured furlong, all round the churchyard, with a column of cash, eight pennies wide, was established in just over two hours. Over £1500 of donations were contributed by a wide range of participants and others, and suddenly, after years in gestation, the fundraising activities had begun. Then lockdown occurred. The Friends is designed to provide funding for the upkeep of the church, churchyard and church centre through the maintenance of its fabric but does not include the costs of day to day revenue and expenditure. Churchyard upkeep and renovation (though much of that has been done entirely voluntarily), clock restoration and organ maintenance have all benefitted from Friends funding recently. The actual fabric of the church is in good condition overall but issues regularly arise, such as the tower under constant attack from nesting birds and the architectural quinquennial (every five years) inspection, plus the constant heating system difficulties and, increasingly, the poorly equipped church centre, put demands on meagre resources. Christmas card sales, a magic evening and other events have provided funds, together with generous donations from the Phoenix Trust, a local charity, significant anonymous donations and regular giving from individuals, plus a councillor grant scheme, have kept the balance positive. A Friends lapel badge, designed with a new tree and cross logo, is available for a single purchase of £5, through a regular giving scheme from £5 per month, or other individual donations. 25 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 The official launch of FoASH is scheduled for Saturday 29 April 2023 when the church will be open 2pm to 4pm for the community, parishioners and visitors, to see the church dressed for an array of usual activities, with people on hand to welcome and provide any necessary explanations. All are welcome and refreshments will be available afterwards in the church centre completely free of charge. Immediate areas of attention include the expansion and upgrade of the church centre kitchen facilities. This will increase significantly the range of activities the centre can support, enhancing the service to the community. The target for achievement is this financial year. A new, illustrated, colour booklet detailing the history and fabric of the church is also in course of production. **Ian Jenkins FoASH** ## **PARISH MAGAZINE** This is produced 10 times a year and appears on the village website. After more years than anyone would like to admit to Carole and John Wilson are stepping down as the main distributers of the magazine. The magazine is delivered to them by the printer and they then organise bundles to go to all our volunteers. Without Carole and John and the team of foot soldiers we would not reach so many people in the parish; we owe them all a large debt of gratitude. Editor Christine Leonard Advertising Christine Leonard Monthly compiler Jo Smith Distribution Alison & Mike Head ( back-up Ian & Jill Howard-Duff) Professional ad settings Jo Canning The printers “Imprint Colour” in Aldershot are very efficient and produce a quality magazine which from the beginning of this year is 100% colour The cost has been reviewed and after much deliberation has risen to £10 per year which is in line with all the local magazines. Christine Leonard ## **All Saints Flower Group Report 2023** This group of thirteen talented and enthusiastic ladies continue to keep fresh flowers in church throughout the year and to push the boat out for festivals at Easter, Harvest and Christmas. 26 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 We are very proud of the fact that we are self-sufficient in funds and never have to ask the PCC for money. Each arranger who does the pedestal for two weeks is entitled to £20 towards buying flowers and although half of the ladies are not church goers they very often do not claim this allowance. After a two year covid induced break we were able to run our wreath making morning again. This was both enjoyable and profitable. At Easter many people give money for lilies in memory of loved ones. This enables us to make a good show at a time of year when flowers are expensive. If anyone wishes to pay for a pedestal in memory of someone close during the year, the group will happily arrange it. ## **Christine Leonard** ## **A.S.H Puppets** During the Spring and Summer terms 2022, we ran an after-school club at The Holme. As many of our puppeteers were in year 6, we decided to change in September to an evening group, meeting in the Church Centre twice a month. Since then we have recruited two additional adults and two children. The first public performance was in December at the Carols on the Green, which was quite a learning curve – and very cold. Since then, the team have performed each month at HDCC Big Brunch on the first Sunday each month. We would love to have more members, particularly young people from Key Stage 2 upwards. ## **Frances Morgan** ## **Safeguarding at All Saints Church** During the last twelve months there have been no activities for children or vulnerable adults. I have not been made aware of any Safeguarding matters that need to be reported. Nevertheless, Safeguarding remains a vital part of our Congregation and it is essential that we establish and maintain an environment where people feel safe and secure in the confines of the Church. This remains a shared responsibility for all PCC members and all members of the congregation. ## **Parish Dashboard** As I mentioned in my last report, there is now an on-line Parish Dashboard which is aimed to make Safeguarding simpler. Information can be added to this dashboard and it points out where extra information is needed and what practices we need to be aware of. I do need to confirm that all members of the PCC are fully up to date with current training. I monitor the dashboard but I believe it will be far more useful to us once activities for children are re-started to ensure that we are fully compliant with safeguarding safety measures. 27 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 ## **Training** Yann and I attended a workshop run by the Diocese in April 2022 on preventing Child Sexual Abuse. This was important to understand what is actually happening for young adults at the moment and what challenges they have to face; however it was probably more pertinent for teenagers and not the age of young persons who we run activities for in our church at the moment. It is now mandatory that all PCC members complete three on-line training courses (Basic, Foundation and Awareness of Domestic Abuse). Many of the PCC have completed all three modules but there are still some who have not completed them especially the more recent one regarding Domestic Abuse so I would urge those people to complete them as soon as possible. ## **DBS Checks** There have been a few DBS checks carried out this year, mainly from people whose previous checks had expired and needed to be refreshed. As we start up children’s activities again, I anticipate some more checks will be necessary. Margaret Locke Safeguarding Officer ## **CHURCH CENTRE LETTINGS AND SOCIAL COMMITTEE 2022-2023** The Social committee and the Church Centre seem to go hand in hand. The Church Centre has had a very busy year with our regular users still making full use of what we offer. We did have a new user but sadly his venture didn’t last more than a few months. We have now become the home for the Headley Parish Council’s monthly planning meetings as they can be assured of the booking, where the village hall has moved or cancelled them. We have had the occasional meeting from Ludshott Photographic Club for similar reasons as the council. With the cost of living as it is the Chris Cole art classes have suffered a little but are surviving. On the whole the Church Centre has had an amazing year with income, we are expecting a slight drop this year in revenue due to the current climate but know that it will pick back up. ## **SOCIAL COMMITTEE** What a busy year! After a quite quiet couple of Covid years the committee hit the ground running!. At the beginning of this year we had a very small committee working their socks off to give All Saints a varied social calendar. One of this year’s first events was Yann’s Installation, followed by Easter.The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee in June was the first time we had ventured into large scale events. This event was 28 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 very well received and with the help of family and friends we set up, made salads, ran the bar, lit a beacon, had a piper and cleared away………We learned by our mistakes and this year we are planning to repeat the success. We had a quiz night, a harvest lunch, prosecco in the porch, saints and sausages, Christmas lunch, an organ recital, pancake evening, Lent lunch, and fish n chips. Some of the events ere to raise money, which they did, these helped to pay for the events that we put on without charge. I can now report that the Social Committee had now grown in numbers (there are now 12 of us as opposed to 6) and we have a very active ‘TEAM’ working hard to bring events for all. If you have any suggestions, please let a committee member know. ## **WEDDINGS, BAPTISMS AND FUNERALS** Bookings for events gradually have returned to normal since the lifting of covid resstrictions. Throughout the year to March 2023 the numbers are as follows: Baptisms- 20 Weddings- 8 Funerals including: Church Services, Interments, and Crematorium: 36 There are several bookings for Weddings for 2023. ## **Tina Wareham Parish Administrator and Social Committee Chair** ## **MOTHERS UNION** ## **Branch Report for the year ended 31 December 2022** At the start of the year we were pleased that Rev’d Helen was appointed to the position of Chaplain for The Guildford Diocese M.U. We applaud Helen for taking on this challenge in addition to her other duties and warmly welcome her to the Mothers’ Union. We have resumed our regular talks and this year we heard about them from Baby Basics with Mary Somerville (to whom we subsequently sent a donation), Sewing and Textiles with Barbara Doyle Davidson; Three Counties Debt Counselling Service with Malcolm Carter and Confessions of an Anthropologist given by Robin Harvey. Our local members continue to provide help to families in need in a number of ways. Because most local members are home-bound they have provided knitted goods for Ugandan babies via the women’s health work of Liverpool University and UK based children through the Baby Basics programme. Our knitters have provided garments and other items to Merchant Seafarers through the Mission to Seafarers in Southampton. Additional activities locally have seen visits to prisons where we look after children so that parents can meet and talk. We can provide Parenting courses if required through a team of dedicated and trained speakers so if anyone knows of a need for this programme please get in touch. As well we can provide a limited number of family holidays in the area to local families who cannot afford one. Again, please get in touch if you know of such a family. 29 APCM Report 23[rd] April 2023 We have been fortunate to receive a cheque for £200 from the Freemasons at Bordon to enable us to further our work at the Royal Surrey County Hospital to which we have provided 32 emergency toilet bags during 2022. ## **Kathy Catt** ## **This concludes the reports for the APCM for 2023.** ## **Ann Sherburn-Hall PCC Secretary.** 30 HEADLEY ALL SAipifs PAROCIIIAL CHURCH COUNCIL Registered Charlty Number: 1127424 FINANaAL sfATEMEPItS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 FINANaAL REVIEW The overall result for 2022 was a deficit of £81X). The giving from our parishioners was up by £4,5(K) at £56.588 on which we recovered gift aid. The income from fees for weddings and funerals was down on the previous year and now that the churchyard is dosed there will be fewer buri315 in future. The Church Centre lettings were much improved at £9,240 compared with £3,256 for the previous year which was affected by covid restrtctions. We had to replace the Church Centre boiler in the year at a cost of £2,842and we were grateful for donations towards this expense of £610. The social committee was very active durin8 the year and raised a total of £3.782 after expenses from fund raisin8 events including the successful Jubilee celebration. Income from investments held up well at £5,882, an increase of £563 from the previou5 year. The investments have to be valued at each year end and the value of them declined over the year by £12,923 compared with the gain for 2021 of £17,919. Investments are held for the long term and their performance over the years has been good and provided valuable income. The freehold property we hold has been valued upwards by £30.000 and produces valuable rental income. We continued to monitor expenses and reduce costs wherever possible. Last year fina Wareham, our Parish Administrator. was in position for the whole of the year and runs the office extremely efficiently. We had a significant cost of decorating the Rectory prior to Yann's arrival which cost £7,650. The one disappointment was our inability to pay the Parlsh Share to the Diocese in full and we were short by £14,268 of the £85.608 requested. We did. however. receive a refund. along with all the other parishes in the Diocese. of £l.O(X) for a rebate in respect of the 2021 Parish Share. The Diocese also gave us £l,(J)O to help offset higher energy costs. The budget for 2023 approved by the PCC is a deficit of £15,8(KJ. Thi5 indudes the Diocesan Parish Share requested for 2023 of £87.059 which represents the single biggest expense of the Church. The pressures on our finances are as great as ever. Thank you to all of you who give generouslytothe Churth in both time and money in supportingAtI Saints Headley.
