ANNUAL REPORTS FOR 2021

Introduction

The Parochial Church Council (PCC) is a Charity which has been registered with the Charity Commissioners since 2009. The Charities Act 2016 regulates the way in which the PCC must report to its local congregation and the public at large. The report and accounts for 2021 are presented in a format that complies with the requirements of the Charities Act 2016.

Parish Aims and PCC organisation

Our purpose is to make disciples of Jesus Christ in the Parish of St Peter, Woking and to support our mission partners in other countries in their disciple-making ministries.

The PCC co-operates with the clergy in promoting in the parish the whole mission of the church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical.

The PCC has responsibility for the financial affairs of the church, and for the maintenance and insurance of:

The PCC meets at least four times a year and is assisted by a considerable amount of committee work, particularly with regard to the day-to-day business of the district churches.

All the statutory disclosure information and details of the various committees are set out on page 2 of this report.

The Accounts

The consolidated accounts of the parish, having been examined by the Independent Examiner, have to be approved by the PCC and then presented to the Annual Parochial Church Meeting. The format of the accounts set out on pages 1 to 9 of the separate booklet conforms to the provisions of the Charities Act 2016 and the Church Accounting Regulations 2006. The combined income of the parish has exceeded the threshold of £100,000, and therefore the accounts have been prepared on the accrual’s basis, in accordance with the regulations laid down by the Charities Act 2016.

Receipts and payments are analysed into Restricted Fund activities and Unrestricted Funds. Restricted Fund income relates to a specific purpose. The funds of All Souls’, Sutton Green and of St Mark’s, Westfield are Restricted Funds. Unrestricted funds are those that the PCC can allocate as they consider appropriate.

VICAR’S REPORT

Reflecting on 2021 I think it has been in many ways an even more testing time for the parish than 2020 when COVID first hit us all. In 2020 there was a strong sense of ‘Dunkirk’ spirit, of getting through it together, with the thought that COVID wouldn’t last too long. In 2021 we realised that COVID was not going to go away quickly, and we started to get tired of all the worrying it caused us, the restrictions that were still upon us both in church and wider life and the extra work that caused many of us. We realised that things would never get back to ‘normal’, and we had to embrace a ‘new normal’ as we talked about in our summer sermon series, which many have found hard especially as we are constantly adapting and changing.

On top of COVID we had to make the sad decision to make Robin Jones, our children’s and families’ minister, redundant due to financial pressures and we said goodbye to the Waako family at the end of their wonderful curacy with us. With many of our older church family getting more frail, some moving away and a number not coming back to church after the start of COVID, our numbers in church on Sundays have reduced as has those who volunteer, though that is true for many churches.

Whilst it might be easy to get down about all this, I take great strength knowing that God has been with us throughout 2021 and that he is still Lord. It can be very easy to get things our of perspective and see things only from our own point of view and forget that God holds history in his hands and has worked through great upheavals throughout human history and continues to do so now. I have also been encouraged through the testing times of 2021 by those who have given so much to the life of the parish through their pastoral care, their practical help, their leadership and their financial giving. Church is all about being the family of God being together to support and encourage one another in our journeys of faith and I am grateful to all in our church family in this parish.

2021 Highlights

There are a few elements of parish life in 2021 that I would like to specifically highlight:

3 | P a g e

being livestreamed. The PCC thought and prayed about a new service pattern that would be sustainable which was adopted in September.

Good-byes

We had a wonderful united service in December to say thank you to Sam, Lyz, Luke, Matthew and Abigail for their ministry amongst us and pray for them as the move to St Mary’s Andover. They brought much to the life of our parish for which we are grateful and we miss them. The PCC had to make the difficult decision to make Robin Jones redundant from his post as Children’s and Families’ Minister and we thanked Robin for his valuable ministry amongst us. We are pleased that he and Jenny remain part of our worshipping community and were delighted when baby Georgia arrived in February 2022.

Dean, Tracey, Lily and Theo left the parish as Dean began his curacy at Holy Trinity Aldershot and we are grateful for their ministry amongst us over many years and glad they are not too far away and keep in touch.

Sadly a number of our wider church family died in 2021 so we remember Barbara Thirst, Enid Hardman, Jean Rowe, Jason Hoford and George Still with thanks for their contribution to the life of our churches.

Thank yous

I am always grateful for everyone who contributes to the life of our parish as we worship together, share faith together, minister together, administer together and care for each other together. Whilst I will name a few people below I can’t name everyone who contributes so richly to parish life, so forgive me if you are not mentioned by name, you are valued.

I am thankful for all that Rachel Johnson gives to the parish, her thoughtful wisdom and prayerfulness and especially her contribution to our children’s and families ministry during a year of transition. I have been blessed with two committed and inspiring churchwardens in Mark and Jacquie, the ever hard-working Rosemary McCrum as deputy warden and Clive Boyle for being deputy warden in everything but name at All Souls’

Thank you to Helen for keeping the office going during challenging times, a huge task and you do much more than most people realise. Thank you to Sue Harvey for your continued putting together of Notes and News and the Prayer Diary, such valued resources for the parish.

4 | P a g e

I am so pleased to Kay Dodds for taking on the role as our Parish Safeguarding Officer, such an important role, and picking it up so well, able supported by Kirsty Angus helping with training, and thankful for all that Tracey Pusey established in that role beforehand.

The official pastoral team of Brenda Cox, Pauline Wilde, Martin Maguire and Carol Whitehorn give so much to care for our congregations, ably supported by Patrick and Barbara Phillipps at All Souls’ and many others across the parish and I appreciate your ministries.

Thank you to all our service leaders, preachers and musicians, those who maintain our buildings, who help manage our finances, who arrange our flowers, who welcome, read and pray in church, who help our children grow in faith, who represent us on Church Councils, and to all who give financially to the parish which is more needed than ever.

My wife Sarah plays such an important role in supporting me in ministry, through her love and prayers and her own service in the parish, so thank you Sarah! But my final thank you has to be to God, the one who created us, loves us, saves us and never let’s go of us. To Him be glory forever!

Jonathan

CHILDREN AND FAMILIES MINISTRY

We were unable to run Sunday School sessions for the first half of the year but were able to maintain connections with families through Energise and Forest Church. We also distributed prayer activity bags as part of ‘Thy Kingdom Come’ which were well received. Sunday School resumed in September, running monthly at St Mark’s led by Libby and twice a month at St Peter’s led by Rachel and Louise. Numbers are low but this is allowing for good friendships to grow within the groups and we have enjoyed having support from some of the young people as well as a loyal team of helpers. Energise continues to run monthly and regularly attracts new families, although building relationships with them and encouraging regular attendance remains challenging.

Y3 remains an important group for the young people who attend. It started the year running on zoom under Sam and Jenny’s leadership, with fortnightly in person sessions resuming in the summer. Several new members joined, making for some vibrant mealtime conversations and times of fun and learning together. It was a great joy to see three young people confirmed (and one baptised) at the Deanery confirmation service in November. With Sam departing in December and Jenny on maternity leave, Sarah has taken over running Y3 with a team of helpers and is currently looking for an additional regular helper to come on board.

PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST. PETER WOKING – TREASURER’S REPORT

COVID continued to affect us financially in 2021 with further lockdowns meaning restricted or no attendance across the Parish for the first few months and some individuals returning to church only gradually, resulting in a drop in collections, fund raising events, use of premises and fees.

Unrestricted income was £130,680 and expenditure was £145,927 giving an overall deficit of £15,247 in 2021, compared to a surplus of £3,474 in 2020

There were a few key items affecting this result:

5 | P a g e

We hope this was an exceptional year, but need to build up our regular giving so would encourage people to review their giving so we have a solid base for the future.

Expenditure on Children's and Families' Ministry was £11,043 in 2021, paying mainly for our Children’s and Families’ Minister Robin Jones who was on part furlough for 8 months and then made redundant at the end of October. Income came from both individual givers and the Bailey Trust, an independent charitable trust administered by the incumbent and church wardens of the parish. However, the funds from the Bailey Trust were fully expended in 2021 so it was closed. Extra income to cover the Children’s and Families ministry came from a £2,091 transfer from general funds. The remaining money in the restricted Children’s and Families fund of £1,710 is the remainder of a £3,000 lottery grant for Refresh Café.

A new restricted Parish Support Fund was created transferring funds from the Coronavirus Support Fund set up in 2020 which was shown in the Main Parish Account.

A new restricted fund for the St Peter’s Chancel Reordering scheme was also set up with some fundraising taking place in 2021.

Allen Taylor has resigned as treasurer as he is moving away from the area and we thank Allen for his support these last 3 years, especially with moving us to QuickBooks which has made reporting much easier. If anyone would like to take on this position, working with Helen Maguire as our financial assistant please speak with Jonathan.

PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST PETER, WOKING - SECRETARY

The PCC met for four scheduled meetings in January, March, June and October with the meetings for the first three remotely by Zoom, and only the last in person, with an average attendance of 15 members.

The format of the scheduled meetings includes regular agenda headings and a liturgy structure, with Bible reading, thanksgiving, and short times of open prayer for the matters under discussion. Highlights of the recent activities of each of the three churches are also shared at every meeting. Regular business of the PCC includes the oversight of parish financial affairs, so budget planning and progress is reviewed at every meeting.

CHURCHWARDENS REPORT

As we look back on 2021 it seems to be is a long time ago!

I would like to give thanks for our ministry team who have worked so hard this year, as well as learning to develop online formats. In addition Jonathan continued in his role of Area Dean.

Covid

This has remained a big challenge for us as we have continued to adapt to new ways of working and worshipping.

A very big thank you must go to Robin who has been instrumental in the provision of our online services. In the first instance, services were pre-recorded and then moved to live streaming from church as restrictions were eased. Robin addressed many of the technical challenges and did much production work too!

We also extended the live streaming service to St Marks with a simpler system, this is used when it is not possible to broadcast from St Peters.

7 | P a g e

Seating arrangements in all churches were modified to permit social distancing along with open windows and doors.

We also installed Co2 monitors to help us measure how well the ventilation is working in some of our buildings.

The Covid safe outdoor carol service at St Marks with the Almac Bisley brass band was a big success, with many more chairs being required at the last minute.

Church life

On a personal note we were very sad to say goodbye to the Pusey family as they moved away, but at the same time celebrate that Dean started his Curacy.

We were also sad to see the Waako family move away as Sam finished his curacy with us. So what has been our loss this year is gain for two other parishes!

We would like to thank Tracey Pusey for all the work she did as Safeguarding Officer over many years, and we would like to extend our gratitude to Kay Dodds for replacing Tracey in this role.

Volunteers help our parish to function, and we are so grateful to everyone who comes forward to help, whether in an official role or ‘behind the scenes’. We greatly appreciate the work of our Pastoral Team as well as our Occasional Worship Leaders & Preachers. We don’t have space to mention everyone but you know who you are, and you are a blessing to us all!

As we negotiate the challenges of 2022 may we all continue to seek and serve the Lord and may his holy spirit rest on each and every one of us.

Jacquie Still and Mark Lempriere

PREMISES REPORTS

St Peter’s

St Peter’s Premises Team met a couple of time in 2021 to continue with the daily and monthly regular maintenance needs. It continued to work through the 2018 Quinquennial Inspection workplan to ensure both Church and Church Centre are maintained to the required standards of public buildings.

The large focus project for the Team and church in 2021 year has been the Chancel Reordering project which has been supported by the Church Architect. Approval from the PCC and subsequent faculty approval by the Diocese Advisory Committee meant this project moves to the fundraising stage in 2022.

The issue of the Garden of Remembrance name plaques which were becoming detached from the memorial was resolved. These are held in situ on the newly cleaned Portland Stone by screws and ensure all who wish to pay their respects and remember loved ones can do so and see their names permanently in place. The stone was cleaned and plaques affixed by Christ Anstey.

The collapsed drain in the middle of the car park was raised making the car park much smoother.

The Church Yard grass continues to be maintained by Woking Borough Council, but any other maintenance has been conducted by the premises team and volunteers, including the Community Payback team which started maintaining the churchyard in 2021. A huge thank you to

8 | P a g e

all who continued to serve on the church cleaning rota which returned to full action stations once services returned to a more normal pattern.

Whilst the Chancel Re-ordering project will be a focus in 2022, the upgrade of St Peter’s sound system will also be considered to allow all to hear, see and be blessed by the services taking place within St Peters.

We continue to be blessed with the buildings in our care within the parish. Blessed too with people with the skills and vision to maintain them. My thanks to all those on the team, their families who allow them to give some much of their gifts of time and skills, and all who volunteer to continue to maintain and beautify the places of worship entrusted to our care.

Jacquie Still

St Mark’s

St Marks DCC carried out their annual building inspection on 27th June 2021. The building was found to be in a fair state of repair, with no major works required in the immediate future. A copy of the full report can be found attached to the minutes of the DCC meeting of September 21st 2021. Minor actions recorded in the report pertained to internal wear and tear items of decoration. Externally there was a need to trim back brambles from the car park where some spaces had become seriously encroached upon. Other general gardening and weeding items were noted. A working party was planned to address these issues but Covid was making this difficult.

Covid19 has been a challenge for us all and on-line worship has been one of our parish responses. To enable this we carried out a DIY installation of a WebCam, and upgraded our broadband network to give us the ability to broadcast on Youtube Livestream.

We purchased a new fridge for the kitchen and some tables which were funded by a grant to our Refresh Cafe. We are fortunate that our building has benefited from some good quality maintenance and upgrades in the past and this has ensured its good condition now.

We have engaged the services of the SCC Community Payback Group who will be dealing with the items of decoration and the grounds tidying. There will be a materials cost only to us. We hope this relationship will continue and that it will be mutually beneficial to all.

A big thank you must go to Rosemary McCrum, our Deputy Warden, whose tireless efforts ensure the building functions for our weekday hirers as well as for worship every Sunday.

Mark Lempriere

All Souls’

All Souls’ church saw a few small maintenance items in 2021 such as replacing some small window panes on the south-east side of the church, repairs to the hymn book cupboard, a temporary repair to the ceiling in the church room, and general cleaning and tidying up of the church yard. A big thanks to Clive Boyle, supported by Guy Quitmann for this maintenance work.

From restricted funds we purchased a large TV monitor on wheels which has been used a number of times in service for showing videos and slides for presentations and sermons which has proven very useful and flexible.

Significant maintenance work is planned prior to All Souls’ centenary celebration in June

DEANERY SYNOD

The Deanery Synod met three times in 2021 - in February, June and October.

The February meeting was yet again held via Zoom due to the continuing Coronavirus Pandemic. Reverend Mark Wallace gave a presentation on’ Living in Love and Faith’ course which looks at sexuality and identity within the Church of England. Parishes were encouraged to participate by running courses or encourage parishioners to attend a course run by the Deanery, and the course was subsequently used for our own parish Connect groups, with perhaps some on occasion considerable learning and re-assessment of thoughts and attitudes and operational matters by all involved.

Our June meeting was still via Zoom, and still, perhaps surprisingly, well attended. At this meeting Covid world presentations were given by four churches within the Deanery: St Pauls Maybury on the benefits of being a vaccination centre, St Mary of Bethany on Church without walls bridging the digital divide, St Andrews Goldsworth Park on their partnership with ‘Foodwise’ during lockdown and in our own parish our new family Energise and Forest church services that were started during lockdown that were especially focused on keeping connecting with both new and currently familiar families. On a broader note the meeting also looked at various ways to improve communication within and across the Deanery and the Diocese.

The October meeting was held in person - at last! Well attended indeed, it was splendidly hosted at St Mary of Bethany. Alison Moulden, Diocesan Environmental officer gave a presentation entitled ‘Net Zero and Eco Church’. Everyone then fell into one of four groups of our Deanery churches to look at what we could or should be doing, about our undoubted neglect of the world that God has given us, as individuals and as parishes. Lively discussions indeed, and a commonality of urgent and practical actions that parishes have since then undertaken, very much reflected in our own Parish work group since then.

Each of these meetings has resulted in lots of Deanery wide consistent thinking and action at Parish level: overall this has very much been helped by direction and support from the Diocese, and by the hard work of our Deanery Leadership Team. Roll on 2022!

Geoff Pugh, Pauline Wilde, Jenny Jones

PASTORAL TEAM

It has been a real privilege for Martin, Pauline, Carol, and myself to be able to keep in touch with so many of you throughout this year by telephone and visits when requested. We have tried to cover the whole Parish but we can only do this when we understand the needs. Yes it has

10 | P a g e

been a difficult time for us all, we just want you to know that we have been praying for you and organising plans to keep in touch. The Connections Cafe has been running for several months now and enjoyed by many - why not give it a try.

It would be good to have others join our pastoral group, the training is well planned and relevant to today's situations, each one of us have found it very useful, enlightening and not at all arduous. If you are at all interested do speak with Jonathan or myself.

PARISH SAFEGUARDING OFFICER

As the Church of England has made huge strides in safeguarding in recent years, so too has this parish – this is in no small measure down to my predecessor, Tracey Pusey. I wish to pay tribute to her for all she achieved in establishing good structures and practice in our churches. I assumed the role of Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO) in August 2021. Since then, I have necessarily spent some time getting abreast of all the role entails. I have completed the training modules mandated for the role, namely, the Core Training, consisting of Basic Awareness, Foundation and Leadership modules, followed by Safer Recruitment and People Management and Raising Awareness of Domestic Abuse. I attended an Induction course for new PSOs in September and a PSO Workshop in November. I am also the DBS Validator for the parish and have completed the DBS Validator Training.

There have been two key changes which need to be included in this report. Firstly, a new Safeguarding Training Pathway came into effect in January 2022. The main change is the requirement for those in specific roles to undertake not just the Basic Awareness course but also the Foundations part of the Core Training. The Training Pathway Document is available on the Diocese of Guildford website or from me. Secondly, the Diocese now requires DBS checks to be renewed every three years, instead of every 5 years. (This process is being rolled out over 2 years, so the Diocese has until January 2024 to ensure all DBS checks are less than three years old).

Kirsty Angus has been a great support to me in her role as Parish Safeguarding Training Officer. She has updated the record of training undertaken by members of the parish and checks when people are due to renew their training. We are working together to ensure that people who take on a role in our church fully understand what the role entails, and that the necessary safeguarding procedures and relevant training are carried out.

I meet regularly with Jonathan, our incumbent, to discuss the safeguarding needs of the parish: we look at and update the Parish Dashboard, an on-line tool to enable parishes to check the safeguarding requirements it needs to meet and to produce a safeguarding action plan, each stage of which is shared with and approved by the PCC.

I attend PCC meetings both as PSO and as PCC representative for St Mark’s. I seek to inform the PCC of changes to safeguarding requirements and to ensure that the PCC is fully aware of its safeguarding responsibilities.

I have visited each of the churches in the parish to introduce myself and to raise awareness of the importance of safeguarding in our churches and to encourage everyone to regard it as an integral part of all we do. I am in the process of getting to know more about the activities taking place in our churches, visiting the various groups and meeting the people leading and helping.

We are members of God’s family here at St Peter’s, Woking, and God wants the best for all his children, that they may flourish and live the best lives they can. It is our duty as Christians to enable this to happen in our church, by ensuring it is a place where all feel protected and surrounded by God’s love. Psalm 121 contains these words, ‘He will not let your foot slip, he who

11 | P a g e

watches over you will not slumber… the Lord will keep you from harm, he will watch over your life.’ Let us ensure that safeguarding is ‘a golden thread running through all we do’.

Kay Dodds, PSO & DBS Validator

PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST PETER, WOKING NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR TO 31ST DECEMBER 2021

ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements have been prepared under the Charities Act 2016 and in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 together with applicable accounting standards and the Charity Commission's Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for the valuation of investment assets which are shown at market value.

Funds

Unrestricted Funds represent the funds of the PCC that are not subject to any restrictions regarding their use and are available for application on the general purposes of the PCC. Restricted Funds are those funds that have been designated by donors for a specific purpose. The accounts include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the PCC is responsible in law. They do not include the accounts of church groups that owe their main affiliation to another body nor those that are informal gatherings of church members.

In 2021 the Coronavirus Support Fund was transferred to becoming a Parish-wide support fund. It went from being a category in the accounts to a separate class as a resrtricted fund whose details are on page 9.

In 2021 a new restricted fund was set up for the chancel reordering work that will be taking place in 2022 with details on p9

Incoming resources

Voluntary income and capital sources

Collections are recognised when received by or on behalf of the PCC. Planned giving receivable is recognised only when received. Income tax recoverable on gift aid donations is recognised when the income to which they relate is received. Grants and legacies to the PCC are accounted for as soon as the PCC is notified of its legal entitlement and the amount due. Funds raised by concerts, fêtes, jumble sales, quiz nights and similar events are accounted for gross. Sales of Appeal goods are accounted for gross.

Other ordinary income

Income from the use of church premises is recognised when the donation is paid

Income from investments

Gross dividends and interest are accounted for when received.

Gains and losses on investments

Unrealised gains or losses are accounted for on revaluation of investments at 31st December.

Resources used

Grants

Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over, or when awarded, if that award creates a binding obligation on the PCC. Organisations that have been assisted by the PCC are listed in the Annual Report.

Activities directly relating to the work of the church.

The parish share is accounted for when payable. Any quota unpaid at 31st December is provided for in

these accounts as an operational (though not a legal) liability and is shown as a creditor in the Balance Sheet.

Bailey Trust

The Bailey Trust is an independent charitable trust administered by the Incumbent and Churchwardens of the Parish. In 2021 the Bailey Trust used up all its resources, a total of £6,479, paying for our Children's and Families' Minister. The account has now been closed.

Short Term Loan

In 2014 the PCC accepted an interest-free loan of £3,000 which was used to assist in the purchase of a piano. The loan is included under short-term liabilities.

Staffing / Employee Emoluments

In 2021 £22,039 was spent on staff emoluments. During the year there were one part-time and one full time staff

Scott Legacy

In December 2017 the PCC received a legacy of £113,763 from the will of the late Mr. Ray Scott. This legacy is restricted to meeting the costs of repair and maintenance of the fabric of St. Peter's Church. At 31st December the balance of the fund was

£103,447 with £63,447 held in The CBF Church of England Deposit Fund and £40,000 deposited with Boom Credit Union

PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST PETER, WOKING NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2021

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Colbert Legacy

As at 31/12/21 an available balance of £21,711 was held on deposit with The CBF Church of England Deposit Fund.

Fixed Assets

Consecrated property and moveable church furnishings

Consecrated and beneficed property of any kind is excluded from the accounts by s.10(2)(a) and (c) of the Charities Act 2011. In order to reflect the fact that St. Mark's Church and St. Peter's Church Centre are vested in the Guildford Diocesan Board of Finance as Custodian of the PCC the costs of these two properties (£17,000 and £40,000 respectively) have been included in a Property Fund at cost.

Moveable church furnishings held by the Incumbent and Churchwardens on special trust for the PCC, and which require a faculty for disposal, are accounted as inalienable property unless consecrated. They are listed in the Church Inventory which can be inspected. For inalienable property acquired before 2001 there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such assets are not valued in the accounts. Items acquired after 1st January 2001 are capitalized and depreciated in the accounts over their anticipated useful economic life as this occurs.

Other fixtures, fittings and office equipment

Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight line basis over 4 years. Individual items with a purchase price of £500 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.

Current assets

Amounts owing to the PCC at 31st December in respect of fees, rents or other income are shown as debtors less provision for amounts that may prove uncollectible.

PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST PETER, WOKING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 31ST DECEMBER 2021

Independent examiner's report to the PCC of St. Peter, Woking

This report on the accounts of the PCC for the year ended 31 December 2021, which are set out on pages 2 to 9, is in respect of an examination carried out in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 ('the Regulations') and the Charities Act 2016 ('the Act').

Respective responsibilities of the PCC and the examiner

As members of the PCC you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements. You consider that the audit requirement of the Regulations and S.145 of the Act have been met. It is my responsibility to issue this report on those financial statements in accordance with the terms of the Act and Regulations.

Basis of this report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 144 (2) of the Act and to be found in the Church guidance, 2006 edition. That examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the PCC and a comparison of the accounts with those records. It also includes considering any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:

Colbert Legacy

As at 31/12/21 an available balance of £21,711 was held on deposit with The CBF Church of England Deposit Fund.

Fixed Assets

Consecrated property and moveable church furnishings

Consecrated and beneficed property of any kind is excluded from the accounts by s.10(2)(a) and (c) of the Charities Act 2011. In order to reflect the fact that St. Mark's Church and St. Peter's Church Centre are vested in the Guildford Diocesan Board of Finance as Custodian of the PCC the costs of these two properties (£17,000 and £40,000 respectively) have been included in a Property Fund at cost.

Moveable church furnishings held by the Incumbent and Churchwardens on special trust for the PCC, and which require a faculty for disposal, are accounted as inalienable property unless consecrated. They are listed in the Church Inventory which can be inspected. For inalienable property acquired before 2001 there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such assets are not valued in the accounts. Items acquired after 1st January 2001 are capitalized and depreciated in the accounts over their anticipated useful economic life as this occurs.

Other fixtures, fittings and office equipment

Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight line basis over 4 years. Individual items with a purchase price of £500 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.

Current assets

Amounts owing to the PCC at 31st December in respect of fees, rents or other income are shown as debtors less provision for amounts that may prove uncollectible.
