PCC Policies in 2021

A Review of 2021

Churchwarden Jill Palfrey writes…

The year started with another period of lockdown due to coronavirus. This time, however, as a parish we were more knowledgeable and better prepared. Therefore, with the help of our PTOs – Revd Barry Ashdown, Revd Tony Naden, Revd Jean Rothery and Revd Brian Tims – we were able to continue our services, including Noah’s Ark, either via Zoom or live streamed. They were also willing and able to help with the occasional offices that could happen under the restrictions in force at that time. Words cannot express our gratitude for all their help during the vacancy.

As a ‘one-off’ for these unusual times Mothering Sunday posies were left outside each church, with a prayer attached, for those passing by to take. Palm crosses were also made available for those who wished to take one.

Services gradually resumed in church, starting with the Easter Celebration. Gradually, the 7.45 am and the Wednesday 10 am Holy Communions returned, followed by Noah’s Ark. By the summer the three churches were fully open and services took place in them all.

During this time preparations were under way to prepare the Parish Profile and draft the advertisement for our new incumbent. The position was advertised from the end of April to the end of May and several applications were received. With the assistance of the Patrons and the Archdeacon these applications were shortlisted with three candidates selected for interview. Interviews took place on 30[th] June, one candidate withdrawing shortly beforehand and subsequently we were pleased to offer the position of Priest in Charge for the parish to Revd Mark Hopkins. As many of you know, Mark had previously been in the Diocese of Birmingham. He moved into The Rectory in the middle of September and was licensed and installed on 30[th] September, thus starting his ministry with us all on 1[st] October.

2021 Annual Report and Financial Statement

The PCC were very keen to start organising events again, particularly if they had a community bias. St Nicholas hosted a Flower Festival and teas in the garden of Sulham House in August which was very successful. St James got the zip wire set up again for the brave and gallant teddies of the area and this was very popular, so much so that there was a very upset child the following week because it wasn’t there for a repeat experience for his soft toy!

Revd Mark arrived in time for Harvest Festival when we enjoyed his first celebration in the parish and also collected an amazing car load of tins and packets to take to Readifood, as we have done previously.

In November a return to our Charity Market, albeit on a smaller scale, took place in St James, helping other charities besides our own to raise funds and to inform about their particular cause.

A service of commemoration was held on All Souls Sunday, and on Remembrance Sunday we held an outdoor afternoon service by the war memorial in conjunction with the Royal British Legion, Pangbourne Parish Council, Pangbourne College Band and uniformed groups. When December arrived we were able to hold once again our annual Christmas tree festival, which this year included a beautiful lantern-lit path and outdoor carols by the Christmas tree and nativity scene.

We held crib services and carol services in all three of our churches, Christingles at Pangbourne and Sulham, Midnight services at Pangbourne and Tidmarsh and Christmas Day services at Pangbourne and Sulham. All services were well attended, which was encouraging, though numbers were lower than pre-pandemic levels in 2019.

2021 Annual Report and Financial Statement

Priest-in-charge Rev Mark writes…

It has been a great pleasure to join the parish of Pangbourne, Tidmarsh and Sulham from October of 2021. I am especially grateful to all those who have compiled this Annual Report. My portion reflects just the last 3 months of 2021. At my licensing as priest-incharge I was warmly welcomed by members of all three

of the churches in Pangbourne, Tidmarsh and Sulham and I have been particularly grateful for the support of our churchwardens Jill, Julia and Mark; our PTOs, and the PCC. As lockdown restrictions began to lift we have been able to establish a regular pattern of services on Wednesdays and Sundays at St James each week, a monthly Holy Communion at St Laurence and a monthly Family Worship service at St Nicholas.

Particular highlights for me have included the Remembrance Parade and Service; being able to play violin for Harvest, All Souls and outdoor carols; getting to know and be known in the local community; meeting and enjoying fellowship with members of all the churches; gazing at the lights during the Christmas tree festival, and leading an Advent Course based around Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol . The question I am most often asked is “Are you settled yet?” to which my response is “I am happy here and not planning on heading off elsewhere!”.

In December, the Bishop of Oxford, Bishop Steven visited the deanery and reflected with clergy the challenges of leading churches coming out of lockdown after a long period of restrictions due to the pandemic. We were encouraged to be careful and kind to one another, balancing eagerness for our churches to “return to normal” with the ongoing concerns and cautions still present as Covid-19 is still at large. This is also a time for reflection on how the mental health of all our church congregations, clergy and laity alike has been impacted by the pandemic. Welfare and wellbeing is to be prioritised over “trying to do too much”, with a recognition that it will take time for in-person groups to be re-established and for many of our older congregation members to feel comfortable in re-joining church in person. We continue to livestream our main service at Pangbourne for those unable to attend in person.

Notwithstanding that, I am looking forward to 2022 and the new opportunities it will bring for growth as disciples of Christ and renewed engagement with our community.

A Report on the Activities of the Parish in 2021

Parish Vision

A united parish with three churches reaching out to all in our community and beyond as a Christian witness.

Parish Mission

To offer a warm welcome, fellowship and a caring environment to families and worshippers of all ages. To actively grow our church family by encouraging people to learn more about what it means to be a follower of Christ and to continue to serve those in our local and wider community through discipleship and love.

Parish Action Plan

Church Administrator

Vanessa Saunders is employed as the parish administrator.

Safeguarding

Parish Safeguarding Officer - Jill Palfrey

Verifier - Vanessa Saunders

Safer recruiting is in place for volunteers and ministry team and group leaders are made aware of the legislation concerning records of Pastoral encounters and asked to comply with the Pastoral Visiting Policy for all licensed clergy and authorised lay ministers working in the parish. It is a requirement that all PCC members complete a Basic Awareness Training course.

The Safeguarding Officer has oversight for DBS checks and the issuing of all associated forms. The Safeguarding Policy is reviewed and approved annually by the PCC and a signed copy is sent to the Diocese as per the requirements. A ‘Promoting a Safer Church’ poster is displayed with contact details and safeguarding arrangements clearly visible on the parish website. Jill Palfrey continues to be the Safeguarding Officer and Vanessa Saunders continues as Verifier.

Health and Safety

The PCC is mindful of the risks associated with its various activities, particularly during the pandemic where they have been able to continue and all guidance from the Government, the Church of England, the Diocese and our insurers have been followed. The PCC has particular regard to the child protection and vulnerable adult’s requirements at all times.

2021 Annual Report and Financial Statement

Insurance

Our insurance provider is Trinitas Insurance and all three churches are covered by one policy. The insurers were kept informed of our church closures and, as required by them, all three church buildings and churchyards, whether locked or open, have been checked on a regular basis.

Mission Partners and Charities Supported in 2021

The Charities we supported in 2020 were as follows: For our Tithe

We also donated to

Christian Aid

For the second year running the parish was unable to be active during Christian Aid Week due to the Covid 19 pandemic. Christian Aid Week was publicised on the parish website and in other communications and envelopes were available in St James for people to make donations. In total £290 was raised and sent to the charity.

Deanery Synod

Area Dean: Revd Dr David Archer

Lay chair : Dr Chris Newman

Parish Deanery Representatives : Wilma Grant and Jill Palfrey, one vacancy

Deanery Synod met twice during the year, in March via Zoom and in person in October. We were also amongst the first of the deaneries to be visited by Bishop Steven in his programme of visiting all deaneries in the Oxford diocese. Bishop Steven had a full day of events. Revd Mark Hopkins joined other clergy to have lunch with him in Upper Basildon. Wilma Grant attended a meal for lay members to meet with him and Revd Mark, Jill Palfrey and Stephen Billyeald attended an ‘open to all’ meeting in St Mary’s Burghfield in the evening.

Deanery Synod representatives are elected for a three-year term and the next elections will be 2024. Jill Palfrey and Wilma Grant, Deanery Synod Representatives

All Churches Together

With the restrictions of Church activities as a result of the pandemic there were only limited opportunities for ACT to organise the usual liaison and ecumenical activities which fall within our remit. Our parish has been represented on the committee by Tony Naden, Dilys Rogers, and Hugh Richardson: Tony has continued as Chairman and Hugh as Treasurer, with Jacky RixBrown of our PCC as Secretary. Several Zoom committee meetings and an AGM were held.

We were able to hold a live service of prayer for Christian unity at St. Stephen’s on May 19[th] . 2021, in line with our previous feeling that the central Week of Prayer dating in January was not a good time and that the Christian Aid/Thy Kingdom Come season in May was a better timing. The hosting of Basildon Benefice and the tone of the service were appreciated by all who attended and those who viewed online.

Committee meetings resumed face-to-face from our AGM in September, although this proved a token meeting as we failed to achieve a quorum.

We held our ecumenical service on Advent Sunday, live in St. James. Due to the pandemic Pangbourne College decided that they would not be able to participate, so we recruited a group of singers and choral speakers from the churches and built the service on congregational hymns with the Advent Antiphons and opening Responsory spoken by the group. St. Bernadette’s contributed a recorded song, and Richard Hudson of Basildon Benefice again provided a recording of a reading of one of his own poems.

We accepted that the annual autumnal quiz had had its day, but with the reopening of the Whitchurch Art Café we took a slot on September 11[th] and have another planned for April 9[th] . 2022 which should cover our expenses for the year.

We are hoping to hold a Unity service in May and organise a quiet/prayer tent at the Pangbourne Fête in June. We will look into possibilities of a fellowship walk/picnic in the summer 2022 and resuming our welcoming of boaters moored at Pangbourne Meadow.

Our key goals are:

a) to draw the churches into greater understanding and unity.

b) to enable the Churches to give a more united and effective witness and service to the community both in local neighbourhoods and in the area as a whole.

c) to give such expression to their common faith, devotion and mission as will meet the needs and opportunities of changing circumstances.”

Music and Singing

During the Covid 19 restrictions in 2021 the singers met in the second half of the year in church for singing practice on Wednesdays 7-8pm when restrictions allowed and met for singing in church at the end of 2021. Singers sang in the choir stalls socially distanced at the end of the year when restrictions allowed.

Thanks to Ian Busby; Meg Orr; Mark Littledale; Martin Holliday: Dilys Rogers; Heather Thorne; Cliff Thorne and Ellie Thorne for leading the worship through a challenging year.

Wilma Grant, Music Co-ordinator

Livestreaming

With Mark Littledale and Mark Dunford able to set up and operate the camera we continued to livestream the 10am services from St James, Pangbourne each week throughout 2021. As the numbers of people attending in person increased fewer were watching the livestream at home although some did watch the recording at a later time. There is now an extensive library of services on our YouTube channel.

Mark Dunford refined the recording techniques considerably over the year and some of the more challenging services, such as Rev Mark’s Licensing, required moving to different parts of the church building.

To share the load each week we hope to recruit more people to do the streaming.

Mark Littledale, Church Warden

Noah’s Ark

We did not restart Noah’s Ark until May of 2021 when we had a ‘trial’ run with masks and hand sanitising but with no refreshments or soft toys. This went well so in June we returned to Noah’s Ark on a weekly basis during termtime and this is how we have continued, introducing coffee and tea for the adults and all the toys but not reintroducing the children’s drinks and snacks. We also had Stay and Play during August.

Leadership has defaulted to Jill Palfrey, with help from Heather Thorne and Revd Mark. Our aim is to find a younger person who will at least share the leadership and hopefully, eventually, take it over completely. We also aim to encourage others to prepare the craft activity but there is a noticeable reluctance amongst the attendees! Meanwhile, we have a small band of very loyal helpers to whom we are so grateful, particularly as, gratifyingly, the numbers attending have been high, many of them babes in arms or new arrivals in the village or surrounding area. Jill Palfrey, Churchwarden

4[th] Tuesday Tea Club

Co-ordinators Jean Rothery and Jill Palfrey

The Tuesday Tea Club did not meet at all in 2021 due to the pandemic.

2021 Annual Report and Financial Statement

Bell Ringing Report

The year started under the second Covid -19 lockdown with all ringing of church bells suspended.

The group of us who had been meeting on-line, via Zoom, to practise continued to do so into the Spring of 2021. Under normal circumstances we would have been able to ring to commemorate the sad death of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. In the event, all that was possible was to toll the tenor bell 99 times, one for each year of his life. We hope to be able to commemorate his death on the first anniversary, 29[th] of April 2022, by ringing the bells half muffled.

The easing of restrictions in June/July allowed us to resume limited ringing for Sunday Service, provided we maintained social distancing, good ventilation, mask wearing and hand sanitising. Ringing was limited to 6 people for no more than 20 minutes.

Further easing of restrictions allowed us to resume practicing for 45 minutes on Thursday evenings. Fortunately, the weather allowed us to congregate in the church yard, outside the tower if we were not required to ring. Further easing and final lifting of restrictions mean that normal Sunday service and Thursday practice ringing have resumed, although we are maintaining the use of hand sanitiser and increased ventilation.

Our core band still has 9 members. Three of our learners/improvers have chosen not to come back after lockdown. However, we have one new learner who is making excellent progress. We are always on the lookout for new recruits, if you want to have a go, or just find out a bit more about bell ringing, our door is always open, just come in when the bells are not ringing.

We have been most gratified by the positive comments we have received from members of the congregation and general public. Thank you. Len Palfrey, Tower Captain

Flower Arranging

Pauline Jones, Beverly Hughes, Dilys Rogers, Jayne Davidson, Rachel Littledale, Pam Killender, Lorraine Ashdown, Pat Coyle, Jill Palfrey, Margaret Rhodes, Sarah Rasmussen.

There were no flowers in church until restrictions abated but were reinstated for Easter (albeit just the altar pedestal). We continued to prepare flower arrangements every two weeks or so throughout the summer.

Our first wedding after lockdown was 17 August, with all hands on deck decorating the church in wonderful tones of pinks, pale purple, blue hydrangeas, delphiniums & agapanthus. The dream team was Pauline, Beverly, Lorraine, Dilys, Pat, Rachael &Jayne

8 October allowed us to flex our muscles again with Harvest. A change to do the usual window arrangements, we opted for large chrysanthemum plants as the focal point for vegetable and fruit displays. A special donation to flowers was made by Richard and Sally Stone, for the font arrangement, to commemorate the tragic death of their relative in America. Huge thanks to Jayne, Beverly, Pauline, Lorraine and Dilys

All Souls Service had its traditional memorial wreath, where relatives can add flowers to the wreath to commemorate loved ones lost, beautifully made by Dilys.

Page 10 of 14

2021 Annual Report and Financial Statement

No wreath class was organised for Pangbourne this year (a reluctance to mingle pre-Covid Christmas) but a bumper 21 attendees came to the Tidmarsh Village Hall class which has become a regular Christmas “fixture” and raises valuable funds for the parish. Thanks to Gillian Alderton and Gill Haggarty for organising it.

In an effort to support the Church of England’s suggestion to become more environmentally sustainable we have invested in six (2[nd] hand) plain glass cylinders to use on festival occasions on the window sills. Small glass/ceramic vases have been used on the table. The use of flowers from our existing store has helped reduce costs and extend the longevity of the altar arrangement. Bio-degradable foam is now used for the altar pedestal and odd special installations. Flowers were purchased locally in supermarkets and greenery was gathered from our gardens and hedgerows. The planted borders in the church yard can now source a varied selection of greenery.

Pauline Jones was an amazing advocate and leader of our church flower team for 20+ years but decided to step back from the role which we reluctantly but totally supportively accepted. Sarah Rasmussen took on the job of preparing the main rota and event installations. Rachel Littledale who gave us amazing support decided to take a less active role.

Sarah Rasmussen

Local Schools

Our Foundation Governors at Englefield Church of England School are Julia Sheppard and Paula Fenwicke.

Due to the pandemic, it was not possible for Englefield Primary, Pangbourne Primary or Pangbourne College to make their usual education visits to St James. Pangbourne Primary were once again unable to have their annual carol service.

Fabrics Goods and Ornaments Report

St James

St James the Less remained open in spite of lockdowns during 2021. St Laurence was reopened in May and St Nicholas in June of 2021, initially with restricted days and times. This was following deep cleaning as proscribed, carried out by a team of volunteers in both cases, led by Julia Sheppard. St James continued with a programme of limited opening hours until the autumn, with daily cleaning of the ‘used’ areas by those who were on the locking rota. Our gratitude goes to all those who helped us remain compliant with the necessary measures in the three church buildings during these unusual times. By the end of the year both St Laurence and St Nicholas were open at all times and St James was open every day with the hours advertised according to the season.

Routine maintenance was carried out where possible. PAT testing and organ tuning was completed for the three churches, gutters were cleared at St Laurence and St Nicholas and piano tuning, boiler servicing, fire extinguisher maintenance and renewal and intruder alarm servicing at St James. A new contractor had to be appointed for the boiler servicing and they were eventually able to locate a required spare part for the boilers at some considerable cost. However, it must be recognised that these are gas boilers of some age, parts are becoming difficult to source and the cost of gas has increased exponentially.

Page 11 of 14

2021 Annual Report and Financial Statement

All three churchyards continued to be maintained through the year. Outdoor exercise and the possibility to socially distance enabled our volunteers to put in many hours. We are extraordinarily grateful for their efforts.

St Laurence

The Quinquennial Inspection of St Laurence took place in October. The main area of concern at the church is the condition of the boundary walls, both south and west. An initial estimate was obtained from one contractor and it would be a major project costing in the region of £26,500 to rebuild or restore these walls. The Friends of St Laurence have indicated that they can contribute towards this cost but to proceed with all the work requires some fund raising specifically for this purpose. This will be ongoing into 2022. During the year the replacement of all light bulbs with LEDS was completed.

St Nicholas

In June it was discovered that there was a leak from the roof in the south west area of the nave and by the end of that month a repair had been effected. In November all the light bulbs were replaced with LED bulbs, thus improving the lighting and making a saving on the power used. Jill Palfrey, Churchwarden

Buildings Committee Report for 2020

The Buildings Committee did not meet during 2021. Comments on our three church buildings and churchyards can be found in the Fabric, Goods and Ornaments Report from the church wardens. Len Palfrey, Chairman

Green Gym Report 2021

Throughout 2021 the regular participants, as we all agreed that we could work in the church yard as part of our permitted regular exercise, continued to work as a group on first Thursdays and third Saturdays. We maintained good social distancing, which is the norm anyway! As always several of our members worked in the churchyard at times and on days of their own choosing.

During the year we managed to keep on top of grass cutting, weeding and hedge trimming to maintain our beautiful, peaceful space.

We are always on the lookout for new people willing to give a little time to help, especially as our average age is over 70!!! Anyone is welcome to join us on Green Gym days, or at times to suit yourself, just turn up and we will find you a job! Len Palfrey

Finance Committee Report for 2021

The Finance Committee comprised Priest-in-Charge, Treasurer, Jill Palfrey, Gill Haggarty, Julia Bion.

Treasurer’s Report on 2021 Statement of Financial Activities

Headline Figures

Unrestricted funds representing day-to-day operations of the parish showed a deficit of £19.7k. Details are shown below.

Restricted Funds which are funds donated for specific purposes showed a deficit of £2k The main expenditure was from the Flower Fund which has a balance of some £35k.

Endowment Funds are capital funds donated for specific purposes from which we can only use the income; these showed a surplus of £1.4k. We use these funds for maintenance of St James’s churchyard and St Laurence’s church and churchyard.

Unrestricted Funds

Income was £7k higher than in 2020 (£23k lower than 2019 pre-covid)

Expenditure was £11k higher than 2020 (similar to 2019)

Our investments gained over £16k which off-set most of the operating deficit (we have made a gain of more than £40k on our investments over the last three years). We have £48k cash in the bank and invested at the end of the year.

Page 13 of 14

2021 Annual Report and Financial Statement

Income and expenditure breakdown as follows:

In recent years planned giving (ie monthly standing orders, parish giving scheme, envelopes plus gift-aid) has covered our Parish Share (ie payment to the diocese to cover the cost of ministry plus a very generous donation towards diocesan costs). However, in 2020 & 2021 donations through envelopes was much reduced because covid restrictions led to fewer services in church. Therefore, we had to rely on other one-off donations to meet our Parish Share; the PCC is very grateful to the many people who generously made additional donations during the year.

Weddings and funerals have been an important source of income in past years but again covid restrictions severely curtailed these events in the last two years. Community fundraising events have also been an important source of income and we started to put on some of these again during 2021 but were unable to match pre-covid levels.
