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 2022 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 three churches and their contents - The St Peter’s Church Centre and its contents. 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 2 to 10 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 accruals 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. 1 | P a g e ## **STATUTORY DISCLOSURES:** ## **Membership of the Parochial Church Council (PCC):-** Members of the PCC are either ex-officio, elected by the Annual Parochial Church Meeting or the Annual District Church Meetings in accordance with the Church Representation Rules, or co-opted to the Council by the vote of its members.

PARISH REPORTS** ## **VICAR’S REPORT** It was lovely in 2022 not to have COVID disrupting parish life so much, where we could worship together every Sunday, run our various church and community groups and begin to rebuild finding a ‘New normal’ as we looked at in 2021, having lost so much during COVID. We started to see more visitors and new people joining our services and some who hadn’t come back to meeting in person since COVID return to in-person worship which was wonderful. It was great to have a good number of weddings again at St Peter’s. ## **Highlights** Events across the churches are covered in each church’s reports so I won’t cover them all, but here are a few personal highlights. - _All Souls’ centenary celebrations_ . It was great to have a focus on All Souls’ this year, to have many visitors to our Flower Festival and Centenary service and for the church to get so visible thanks to the living wall of surfinias all summer. Our Memorial Garden looks amazing with the wonderful Memorial Stone in the middle and will be a lasting memory of the faithful witness of worshippers at All Souls’ over the last 100 years. - _Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations_ . I was so pleased to see Church Street and the car park full of people for the lighting of the Beacon and the wonderful numbers that came to the Jubilee Garden Party at St Mark’s. Both events had a wonderful community atmosphere and helped make our churches and their witness to God more visible. - _Environment Team_ . I was so pleased we were able to get an Environment Team together this year as we start working together to see how we can better look after this wonderful world God has given us, and help our parish meet the Church of England target of 3 | P a g e becoming net carbon zero by 2030. The team from across all 3 churches has come up with some good ideas, implemented some initiatives and is enthusiastically looking to the future as we work towards becoming an official ‘Eco-church’. - _Christmas._ We had encouraging numbers and a great atmosphere for our Guide Dog service and Christingle at St Peter’s, and for the Christmas Eve Carol Service at All Souls’. It is so good to see our churches full with people celebrating the birth of our saviour. I think there is still a thirst for God in so many people that we want to meet as best we can. These are highlights for me, because they are things dear to my heart, that show spiritual hunger and have enabled us to bring God and his kingdom to so many people in a variety of ways. ## **Vision** We began a process of seeking God for a new vision as we rebuild and reshape ourselves as a parish after COVID. We were supported by our Mission Enabler, Emma Coy, from the Diocese who helped shape the way we undertook the vision process. I was particularly excited at the way the vision team sensed God speaking to us when we gave time to listen to Him with the resulting Shining Out, Guiding In, Welcoming Home vision statement that we launched in early 2023 feeling very apt for our churches’ ministry at this time. I have felt excited about the future of our churches after some difficult years and sense shoots of growth around us, small though they may be at first. After all we trust in an eternal God who is faithful and wants us to join in with all that he is doing. ## **People** Ultimately the church is all about people – people who worship alongside us, who serve us, who we serve as we are God’s people living in community. In singling out a few people I recognise there are many others who give so much to the church, often quietly and behind the scenes and I am grateful to each of you, but this year I want to particularly mention these people. _Mick Moorse –_ I have to start with the Revd Michael Moorse. Although Mick died in 2023, it was so early in the year it feels appropriate to write about him now. His death was a shock to all of us and I really miss him as a colleague and friend. In 2022 he thought a lot about death and resurrection and helped shape 2 sermon series we did in 2022 on Resurrection and the Second Coming which were very appropriate. Mick, with his wife Pat, ministered to so many people in this parish over the years and left an indelible mark in our souls, not least the way he wrestled with his suffering in his last few years, growing in his faith and trust in God and I am so grateful to Mick for all he taught me and challenged me on. We look forward to seeing you again Mick in all your glory! _Helen Maguire_ – Helen has been a wonderful administrator to the parish for many years and a great support to me since I came, providing calm advice and guidance, letting me know how things work and just getting on with all those behind the scenes things that make church life tick over smoothly. Helen stepped down from her role at the end of 2022 and I am very grateful for her administrative ministry. _Pauline Wilde –_ finding a churchwarden is never easy so when Jacquie Still finished her term in 2022 I was delighted that Pauline enthusiastically agreed to take on the role. She has been a real support to me and others, picking up the role well and growing into it, keeping on top of things and reminding me of things I sometimes forget about. It is great to have David Wilde as our PCC secretary too and of course Mark Lemprière as our other experienced churchwarden. _Louise Webb –_ finding a treasurer is also never easy, so after Allen Taylor moved away, I was delighted when Louise, who has been connected to St Peter’s for many years, saw we needed a 4 | P a g e treasurer and enthusiastically took on the role. She brings great experience, calmness, thoroughness, and good ideas. _Matthew Rickard_ – Matthew brought great joy to all through his musical accomplishments on the organ and piano in services and concerts, including his wonderful Classical Favourites concert in May. He was always gracious and a delight to work with and we miss him, though we will still see him from time to time. Following a recruitment process we were delighted that Trevor Aldridge became our main organist and he is developing well into the role. _Rev’d Martin Smith_ – Martin is a Self-supporting Minister from Christ Church and has been a great support to us in the year we had no curate, leading and preaching twice a month and providing consistency, calmness and warmth to our worship. It was lovely to have new worship leaders and preachers trained in 2022 – Jacquie Still, Caroline Harvey and Andy Holcombe are great additions to the team and bring freshness and their own individuality to our services. We are grateful to the ministry of Rev’d Rob Bennett who leads and preaches regularly, together with a few others like Ray Marks and Bev Hunt. _All the saints_ – I think of faithful members of our congregations who have gone to be with the Lord in 2022: Barbara Lanaway, Doreen McKinnon, Frank Davenport, and Audrey Angell. But all of you who are reading this are saints too, and I am grateful to each of you as you attend our services, serve God through our churches with your time, talents, prayers and finances, and bear witness to Christ’s love through your lives. I look forward to all God is going to do in and through us in 2023. _Jonathan_ ## **CHILDREN’S AND FAMILIES’ MINISTRY** We were delighted to be able to get back to normal with Sunday School in 2022. This continues to run twice a month at St Peter’s, led by Rachel and Louise with support from Eliot, Katie, Simon and Caroline, and monthly at St Mark’s led by Libby and Sally. A taster session at St Peter’s attracted several families, one of whom is now fairly regular. A highlight of the year was the St Peter’s football nativity play! Energise has a small but faithful attendance and it’s wonderful to see children and parents enjoying worshipping together. We continue to try and support families, including the many who come to Refresh Café, to grow in faith at home by giving them resources and ideas they can use together. We have had many good conversations at Refresh Café and supported those families in a variety of ways. Y3 are a small group of 4 young people who meet regularly during term time to share fun, fellowship and faith. We have 1 regular leader and 1 slot for a regular leader which is filled by rotating volunteers, for which we are very grateful. ## _Rachel & Sarah_ ## **PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST. PETER WOKING – TREASURER’S REPORT** Although our churches were fully open in 2022, the effect of COVID can still be seen, most notable is the fall in regular giving with many parishioners choosing to give by collection. Unrestricted income was £147,891 and expenditure was £146,274 giving an overall surplus of £1,617 in 2022, compared to a deficit of £15,247 in 2021. There were a few key items affecting this result: - A £8,000 decrease in regular Gift Aid giving which was partly offset by a £5,300 increase in collections - £5,800 increase in donations and appeals 5 | P a g e - 2022 saw receipt of two grants, £2,000 from Surrey Community Action towards electrical works and £1,800 energy grant from the Diocese - Expenses total was similar to 2021 but there were a number of notable differences; £13,400 clergy housing costs saved due to having no curate were offset by parish share returning to normal levels and increased costs, the largest of which was £4,400 increase in Church Centre maintenance mainly due to electrical works carried out in October 2022. Although 2022 was an improvement on 2021, we hope our Shining Brighter Appeal will encourage people to review their giving so we have a solid base for the future. Expenditure on Children's and Families' Ministry was only £1,214 in 2022, following our Children’s and Families’ Minister Robin Jones being made redundant in October 2021. The Parish Support Fund was created in 2021 by transferring funds from the Coronavirus Support Fund set up in 2020 which was shown in the Main Parish Account. A restricted fund for the St Peter’s Chancel Reordering scheme was also set up in 2021 with some fundraising taking place in 2022. Construction work to create Chancel Open Space was carried out in March/April 2023 and we hope the project will be completed by end of May 2023. Louise Webb joined us as treasurer from May 2022 following the resignation of Allen Taylor. ## **Mission giving in 2022** ||**Mission Partner**||**Amount**| |---|---|---|---| ||St Michael’s ChurchSheerwater||£1,000| ||Church Army||£1,000| ||CMS– Malcolm Pritchard||£1,000| ||Project Return||£216| ||EngageWoking Schools||£500| ||Toilet Twinning||£124| ||**Total**||**£3,840**| _Louise Webb (Treasurer) and Jonathan Thomas (Vicar)_ ## **PARISH FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Please see separate booklet)** ## **PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST PETER, WOKING - SECRETARY** The PCC met four times in 2022 (January, March, June, and September), twice via Zoom and twice in person, also an email vote to approve the creation of the All Souls’ memorial garden. Most meetings follow a similar format: a reflection on a Bible passage followed by prayer, finance, safeguarding, church development and updates on past activities and future events. The key topics discussed during the year were: - The appointment of Louise Webb to replace Allen Taylor as Parish Treasurer - Co-option of Louise Webb to the PCC - Platinum Jubilee celebration including the St Mark’s Platinum Jubilee Garden Party - All Souls’ Centenary and Memorial Garden - The vacant Rectory - The progress of our Eco team activities 6 | P a g e - St Peter’s Chancel reordering - Co-option of David Wilde to the PCC as PCC Secretary - Annual meetings and the make-up of the two DCCs and St Peter’s Council - Replacement for Matthew Rickard as Parish Organist - Service patterns following Covid-19 - The many and varied services at our three churches - The rise in energy bills - Mission and activities of our mission partners - Children and youth activities - Letting rates - Church Development – All Souls’, St Mark’s, and St Peter’s - Parish Vision based around: ‘Lighthouse’ (shining out), ‘Lifeboat’ (guiding in), and ‘Harbour’ (welcoming home). _David Wilde, PCC Secretary_ ## **CHURCHWARDENS’ REPORT** 2022 was an eventful year both for our parish and our nation. We would like to thank Jonathan and the ministry team supported by Occasional Worship Leaders and Preachers for leading the Parish through another year. We are grateful to Jacquie Still who stayed on another year and now is seeking God’s call on her future. It was a great joy after two years of not being able to worship at Easter in church due to COVID that in 2022 we were able to be back in church and celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Saviour. In June along with the nation we celebrated the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee with two events: a light Beacon at St Peter’s on June 2nd and a garden party at St Mark’s in conjunction with New Life Church. Both events attracted members of the local community. At the end of June we celebrated 100 years of All Souls’ Church with a flower festival where the spectacular living wall of Surfina plants became a local land mark. The centenary service was attended by Bishop Andrew and many past and present members of All Souls’. In July we said goodbye to Matthew Rickard, our parish organist, he had served as organist for 12 years. We like, the whole nation, were shocked by the death of Queen Elizabeth II after seventy years of total dedication to the country, and Commonwealth and always showing how much her faith meant to her. Services were held in thanksgiving of her life. All Souls’ Memorial Garden was in place and dedicated on Remembrance Sunday and will act as a continuing memorial to those who gave their lives in the First World War. We ended the year with a Christmas Tree Festival at St Peter’s and well attended Christmas services at all three churches. Our thanks goes to all the volunteers who have given their time in support of the parish in 2022. _Pauline Wilde and Mark Lemprière_ 7 | P a g e ## **ELECTORAL ROLL** We had a completely new Electoral Roll in 2019, but there has not been much change since then. Below are the figures for the three churches and the parish as a whole for the Electoral Roll 2023: ||(New ER)|(New ER)|(New ER)|(New ER)|(New ER)| |---|---|---|---|---|---| ||**2019 Total**|**2020 Total**|**2021 Total**|**2022 Total**|**2023 Total**| |**St Peter’s**|84|85|86|82|83| |**St Mark’s**|32|32|32|31|31| |**All Souls’**|25|25|25|23|23| |**Unspecified**|3|3|3|3|3| |**TOTAL**|**144**|**145**|**146**|**139**|**140**| ||||||| |**APCM date:**|30/4/19|20/10/20|11/5/21|10/5/22|30/4/23| _Brigitte Morton_ ## **DEANERY SYNOD** As we endeavour to follow Jesus Christ in our personal and parish lives, it is sometimes easy to forget or overlook how much we also depend on, or can be encouraged by, or are needed to help, our immediate Christian fellowship around us here in Woking. This is as well of course as for our adopted mission partners in Africa, or for the people needs of such tragedies as the Middle East refugee crisis, or the Turkish earthquake. So, this is our Deanery Synod - it is our wider but still immediate community around our South Woking parish, and it is far more than just an administrative support mechanism for the Church of England and its Diocesan components through formal Synod meetings. And what a year. First, some significant people changes, with our Vicar Jonathan Thomas standing down early in the year as the Area Dean, and, after all due process, Revd. Mark Wallace (St Mary of Bethany) then appointed to take over from him. In our parish, Anthony Morton taking on a role as our Parish representative, following Pauline Wilde taking up churchwarden responsibilities here. Second, there have been some changes of church parish memberships of our Woking Deanery, as ministry have retired or moved on, new appointments been made; changes which perhaps better reflect emerging population changes, resources and needs of our Deanery area. Thirdly, as with other Deaneries, the Diocese has assisted us to reformulate our own exciting view of ourselves and our own mission roles - with the thinking of Fresh Expressions resulting in our new parish vision of our Lighthouse. Naturally there have also been the regular Deanery-wide meetings for all parishes too, often with some invited speakers as a focus for those attending. - Feb 8th - Engaging with schools post pandemic - discussions and actions arising - led by Jane Whittington from the Diocese - 14th June - Christians in Sport, and Mental Health of young people - led by John McCabe, St Mary’s Byfleet - 6th October - Parish Sharing - Projects and Difficulties - Key Topics for All - led by Mark Wallace Deanery Chapter meetings run regularly through the year, and are very much a source of support, coordination, and prayer for all our Deanery ministry. These are particularly essential in times like 8 | P a g e these of much change, both personal and organisational, and of local and worldwide challenges to all of our Christian ministry. They often help in providing the arrangements needed for example, for our new parish confirmations, or publicity to help recruit Woking Park Run volunteers, or note the warm hub churches opened for the local populace in the recent winter fuel crisis. Finally, Bishop Andrew and the Archdeacons have expressed how keen they are to hear directly more from the laity across the Deanery, initially but not necessarily solely through Deanery Lay chairs. _Geoff Pugh, Deanery Synod Representative for St Peter’s, and Deanery Lay Chair_ ## **PASTORAL TEAM** We as Pastoral Assistants are here to serve you. We try to seek out situations where we are needed, however, we sometimes fail, so we need your help to point us in the correct direction. It has been good to have Allison McFarlane join us this year having completed the Listening Course (the Diocese no longer do the Pastoral Assistants course but a Listening Course which is less arduous) and she is on the whole looking after the St Mark’s end of the parish. When one comes, one seems to go and unfortunately Martin left the Pastoral Assistants team at the end of 2022 when he moved out of the Parish. Martin has been a great asset especially in a situation when a male is required. Yes, we can cope as an all-female team (Alison, Carol, Brenda & Pauline) but it would be good to have a man at our backs. Is anyone interested? Please contact me or Jonathan about the course if you feel God is calling you towards this work. Call us if you would like to chat about anything that you think we can help with. Our numbers are on the back of Notes & News. _Brenda Cox 07921 160684_ ## **PARISH SAFEGUARDING OFFICER** In this, my second year as Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO), I have sought to meet the requirements set out for this role. Our Parish Safeguarding Policy is clearly displayed in each of our churches along with details of whom to contact in case of concerns. Details of other organisations which offer support are also displayed. Any safeguarding concerns about children, young people or adults in the church should be raised with Jonathan or myself so that advice can be sought, and the correct procedures followed. I have regular meetings with Jonathan to discuss the safeguarding needs of the parish. We have worked together to update the Parish Dashboard and have made significant progress in the last year. This online tool enables parishes to check the safeguarding requirements it needs to meet, and to produce an action plan to achieve them. The PCC is informed at every stage and its approval for policies and procedures recorded. We have recently ensured that all church activities have been approved by the PCC and that each activity has a risk assessment in place. I prepare a safeguarding report for each PCC meeting, which I attend as PSO and as PCC representative for St Mark’s. Safer recruitment and training are key aspects of safeguarding. Those considering taking up a role in a church activity are given a role description and are asked to provide references. A selfdeclaration form is completed prior to a DBS check being carried out. As DBS Validator for the parish, I have carried out new checks and renewed existing checks (now 3 yearly). The Training Pathway which came into effect in 2022 sets out clearly the training needed for specific roles. Details of all the training can be found on the Diocese of Guildford website. I actively encourage 9 | P a g e all those with Safeguarding responsibilities to undertake the appropriate training for their role and keep a record of training completed. I am ably assisted in this by Kirsty Angus, our Safeguarding Training Officer and wish to express my thanks to her. Although it is the responsibility of the incumbent, the PCC and the PSO to promote a safer church for everyone, may I encourage you to share that responsibility as we seek to be a church where all are welcomed into the safe harbour of God’s kingdom. _Kay Dodds, PSO & DBS Validator_ ## **2. ST PETER’S REPORTS** ## **LIFE AT ST PETER’S** After two years of restrictions due to the COVID pandemic it was lovely to see some of our special services return. Mothering Sunday was once again celebrated although numbers were lower than pre pandemic. Flowers were distributed in church and also to those who were unable to attend the service in person. St George’s Day service was also back in church with the Mayor of Woking and members of the local Royal Naval Association in attendance. It was a real joy to see the church decorated and with a large congregation to celebrate Easter in church once again. Along with the whole country we celebrated the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee by lighting a Beacon on top of the church tower, which could be seen from quite a distance. We also had a special fellowship lunch. Matthew Rickard sadly decided that after 12 years he would step down from being organist for the parish. Over the years he has not only played for the many services but has also entertained us with several concerts. We were blessed to have one such concert of classical favourites to help raise some money for the chancel open space project. Having celebrated the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee in June it was with great sadness that we had to commemorate her death in September. The church was open for people to light candles and to write messages in a book of condolence. A special service was held on the Sunday and the church bells were rung half muffled. Harvest was once again celebrated with food items being sent to the South Woking Foodbank and floral arrangements being distributed around the parish. The All Souls’ Day Memorial Service was well attended. In December we held our first in-person Guide Dog Association service after a break of two years due to the pandemic. It was attended by the local mayor and was lovely to see the church full. We also held a very successful Christmas Tree Festival which brought in many from the local community as visitors. The Christmas services were well attended especially the Christingle service. The Energise service, which started during the pandemic, continues on a monthly basis with Energise Plus service meeting in the Church Centre, which is more of a café style service. It has been a great encouragement to see many new faces attending our services. I would like to thank all who serve on various rotas to keep the church clean, to welcome us and to serve us with refreshments as well as many other behind the scenes jobs. I can’t finish this 10 | P a g e _Pauline Wilde_ report without a special thank you to Helen Maguire who, due to moving out of the parish, has decided to step down from her role as Parish Administrator; we will miss her. ## **PREMISES** The premises committee met 3 times during 2022. We continued to work through the Quinquennial Inspection list of jobs. Our next inspection is due in August 2023. White lines were painted on the Church Centre car park. The churchyard and Jubilee Garden of Remembrance upkeep has been mainly carried out by the Community Payback team especially clearing and placing bark underneath the trees. A big thank you also to Martin Maguire, Spencer Martin, and Grahame Wall for their support with this work. In line with ECO church some bird and bat boxes have been erected and an area of the churchyard has had wildflowers and bulbs planted. Bug hotels have also been placed in the churchyard. Windows in the Church Centre had some extensive DIY work done to stem the rot, but this is only a temporary fix. More extensive work needs to be done in the coming years. Some plaster had fallen from the ceiling in the gallery and repair will take place in 2023, the insurance company will cover most of the cost of the repair. Electrical upgrade work was carried out in both the church and Church Centre. Since the upgrade there has been an intermittent tripping of some of the circuit breakers in the church. Although there has been some in-house investigation to discover what has been causing the circuits to trip, nothing has been discovered. This will continue to be investigated in 2023 and we will seek professional advice. With the Chancel Open Space due to start in spring 2023 fundraising for the project was launched. We would like to thank the many volunteers who have helped with cleaning working parties and also thanks to Martin Maguire who has continued to do many of the smaller jobs. _Pauline Wilde_ ## **3. ST MARK’S REPORTS** ## **LIFE AT ST MARK’S** It was good to return to meeting in person after the pandemic. Attendance numbers have remained stable and most members able to do so have come back to church. During the year St Mark’s hosted several parish-wide events, including a Pancake Café on Shrove Tuesday, an open-air service on Good Friday, the Sunrise Service on Easter Day and a Light Beacon on Westfield Common at Hallowe’en. A highlight of the year was the Garden Party to celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee in June, run jointly by our parish and the New Life Church. This was well-attended and a very enjoyable occasion. We also held a Harvest Lunch and in November tried a new venture, the Tearfund Big Quiz Night with a pizza supper. The outdoor Carols by Firelight service with the Bisley Almac Brass Band was well-attended. Our thanks go to the Ministry Team, the DCC members, and all who help run our services and events and maintain our buildings and grounds. _Rosemary McCrum_ 11 | P a g e ## **PREMISES** Regular hirers were Surrey Community Dance, Slimming World, two art groups, the 10[th] Woking Brownies and the Woking Snorkel and Scuba Society. Sadly, several groups were unable to reconvene after the pandemic, but bookings for parties picked up. A total of 40 children’s parties, meetings and other single event bookings took place during the year. The TOTS Toddler Group flourishing on Tuesday mornings and the after-school Refresh Café for children and parents attracted good numbers. The DCC carried out the annual inspection of the premises in July and filed a report with the minutes of the September DCC meeting. The building was found to be in satisfactory condition, with no major work required in the immediate future. The roof requires monitoring for broken tiles and frost damage and the 50-year-old radiators are to be monitored for efficiency. Routine maintenance and repairs were carried out satisfactorily. New cleaners were appointed during the year, and they are doing an excellent job. The gardener, employed to cut the grass twice a month, is also giving a good service. We are grateful to the SCC Community Payback team who worked at St Mark’s on several Thursdays during the year and did painting and grounds maintenance work. A Hive system was fitted to the boiler to control the heating remotely and keep energy costs to a minimum. A new table-tennis table was purchased with funding from a grant for Refresh Café. _Rosemary McCrum_ ## **4. ALL SOULS’ REPORTS** ## **LIFE AT ALL SOULS’** 2022 was all about celebrating the centenary of the church which had been carefully planned by the DCC and had some memorable highlights: - Living wall of Surfinias. This was created by local artist Mary Branson on the front wall of All Souls’. The plants were grown by individuals from Sutton Green and the wider parish and then a structure was erected in June supporting the growbags of Surfinias. They reached their peak in July and August, looking stunning and were noticed by all who passed by giving great focus to the church within the village and by many others in the area. The cost was covered by Sutton Green Village Committee, to whom we are very grateful. - Flower Festival. This ran on the weekend of 25/26 June overlapping with the Sutton Green Village fete and consisted of 20 displays by local churches, individuals, and floral groups on the theme of the centenary of All Souls’. We estimate 200 or so visitors came to look at the displays over the weekend and we had many good conversations. Visitors voted for their favourite display which was won by St Mark’s Church. - Centenary Service. The Bishop of Guildford, Rt Revd Andrew Watson, was the guest preacher at this special service on Sunday 26 June speaking about the commitment and sense of duty of those who built the church to honour God. The service was also attended by the Mayor of Woking, former clergy and former members of All Souls’ as well as a good number from the village committee and wider village. Afterwards we celebrated with a Centenary Cake and Prosecco. - Remembrance Sunday. Our Remembrance Sunday service was well attended as we dedicated our Memorial Garden which was completed the night before and looked wonderful! The centenary year helped put All Souls’ on the map as many visitors came and we received quite a bit of coverage in the local press. It was also a great opportunity to work together with the Village Committee and a number of other villagers who helped with the Living Wall and Flower 12 | P a g e Festival. We hope passers-by and villagers will stop and enjoy the Memorial Garden, especially during spring and summer when it will look particularly beautiful. Our DCC and others from All Souls’ were very involved in getting the church ready for and helping with the various events and we are grateful to everyone who put so much time and effort in. The Centenary re-energised and encouraged us as a church. Our numbers on a Sunday continue to be around a dozen, and there is always a lovely atmosphere during our services. Due to various commitments, we didn’t restart refreshments after COVID, but plan to do so in 2023. _Jonathan_ ## **PREMISES** The past year was quite a busy one. Not because of any major repairs or other maintenance rather with all that needed to be done in connection with marking the centenary of the building and consecration of the church. To ensure that the church was looking its best for the events the painting of the outside was brought forward by a year and completed to a high standard by Guy Quitmann. A team of three spread some 5 tonnes of gravel over the car park – great exercise! As most will have seen the road facing wall of the church was covered in a wonderful display of Surfinias for most of the summer, this planned and arranged by local installation artist Mary Branson. The installation required the temporary fixing of a water supply and batten supports. It is a testimony to the quality of build by Walter Tarrant that when these were removed in October and the wall repainted there was next to no repair work required to the render. The big outside project was of course the construction of the memorial garden, again marking the centenary, this being completed for Remembrance Sunday. Both the Surfinia wall and the garden have attracted a lot of attention from passersby – locals and visitors and it is hoped that the garden will be a place that people continue to stop and look at or just sit and reflect. Turning attention to the inside, the church room ceiling was repaired, and walls and ceiling painted. This will unfortunately become a more regular event now as with less use the room gets very cold and a little damp. Looking ahead after a pause for breath there are a number of projects planned but fingers crossed no major works required. Some of those projects will be linked to the Environment Team plans – a compost heap, bug hotels, bicycle racks and new memorial garden will require a bit of maintenance. Probably more noticed after last year hopefully this small 101year-old church will long remain as a place of peace for worship and reflection in Sutton Green. _Clive Boyle_ 13 | P a g e # Financial Statements of the Parochial Church Council For the year ended 31 December 2022 **PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST PETER, WOKING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 31ST DECEMBER 2022** ## **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 2022, 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: - (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements - (a) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 144 (2) of the Act; and - (b) to prepare financial statements, which accord with the accounting records and comply with the requirements of the Act and the Regulations, have not been met; or - (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

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 2023 with details on Page 9. ## **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 2022 £12,121 was spent on staff emoluments, employing one part-time member of 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 £97,657 with £64,281 held in The CBF Church of England Deposit Fund and £40,000 deposited with Boom Credit Union less £6,624 owed to Parish for works already completed. Page 4 **PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST PETER, WOKING NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2022** ## **1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)** ## **Colbert Legacy** As at 31/12/22 an available balance of £21,996 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. |**2**
