Liss Parochial Church Council

Treasurer’s Report Year Ending 31 December 2021

1. Introduction

I am pleased to present my third, and final, report as Treasurer to Liss PCC. This year I would like to start, rather than finish, by thanking all of those who have worked so hard alongside me in managing the finances of the PCC. First and foremost, Michaela Surtees has once again done a sterling job in maintaining the bookkeeping records and instigating most of the many payments that need to be made over the year. Without her, the work of the Treasurer would be much harder. The Finance Committee continues to provide both guidance and overview and I am grateful to Michael Oakley not only for his membership of the Committee during the early part of the year but also for him continuing to count and bank the money every week. Ruth Hamborg continues as Gift Aid Adviser, ensuring that we use the Gift Aid rules to the fullest possible extent and David Harvey continues as Parish Giving Adviser – both critical roles in the financial life of the parish. John Heath and Chris Jenner joined the Finance Committee during the year. Finally, Rodney Fisher has continued to draw on his expertise and experience to keep an eye on our investments and to prepare the annual accounts. Additionally, he has stepped into many of the roles of the Treasurer, following my departure, to ensure that good financial governance is maintained. He has done this on a temporary basis, pending the appointment of a Treasurer, and I trust that the PCC will not take advantage of this to avoid addressing this matter.

2. Statement of Receipts and Payments

The church building was closed for 9 weeks at the beginning of 2021, and for 16 weeks during the spring/summer of 2020 somewhat undermining some comparisons year on year. The Unrestricted Account (which reflects our day-to-day activities) finished the year with a small deficit of £2,216. Giving was lower than in 2020, by £2,097, and total receipts decreased by £5,797, reflecting the allocation of £3,120 of dividend income to designated funds. The reduction in giving hides an increase in ad-hoc giving more than offset by a reduction in planned giving. Parish giving is disproportionately dependent on a relatively small number of donors, which is neither unexpected nor unwelcome. However, it does leave us vulnerable to small changes in the make-up of our donor group having a more significant impact on total giving. This needs to be monitored carefully and constantly.

When permitted, good use was made of the re-ordered space not only by us but also by outside users, generating receipts of £1,160.

Expenditure was down by £3,609, compared to 2020, driven by a reduction in our allocation of Parish Share paid to the Diocese of £2,987. Repairs and maintenance were down £3000 largely because of £5000 of expenditure on the tower coping stones that will fall into early 2022. Utility costs were up nearly £3000 over 2021 (over 200%) with every indication of further rises in 2022. As usual, we paid our allocation in full. Most of the other elements of our expenditure were down because our activities were restricted, throughout the year, by varying levels of pandemic measures and responses.

Overall, despite the difficult circumstances we faced in 2021, the level of our uncommitted reserves remain in tact. However, budget projections for 2022 anticipate a likely unrestricted deficit in the range of £15,000- £20,000, leaving no room for complacency.

3. Assets and Liabilities.

Our total net assets for all funds at year end, excluding the notional cost of the Church Hall of £150,000, stand at £206,583, made up of current account balances, bank deposits and investments.

Movements in the capital markets left us with a year-on-year increase in the value of our investments of £16,255, an annual return of 14% reflecting in part a recovery of losses on the property portfolio in the previous year as a reaction to Covid. However, January 2022 has given a reminder of the volatility of investment markets. In one month, our portfolio has reduced by over £4000 (25% of the gain built up over the 12 months of 2021)

The PCC has a policy of keeping £30,000 in current accounts as a general reserve and the unrestricted bank balances at 31 December were £32,242. £45,000 is held on deposit to back the Child & Families Ministry. Turning to investments , £74,187 supports the Re-roofing Fund, leaving the balance of £54,306 as an additional reserve. However, realisation of the budget deficit for 2022 would reduce this additional reserve by more than third assuming stock market values remain at 2021 levels.

Future Activities.

Between year end and the APCM, the tenders for the re-roofing work should have been received and processed and there may be greater clarity of the way forward, but if the work does proceed it is clear that a major grant and fund-raising effort is required. At the same time, as reserves are spent on the roof, the cushion they provide for day-to-day expenditure, allowing us to operate a deficit, will disappear, requiring a significant increase in planned giving to balance the books and to fund increased activity levels as the impact of the pandemic lessens.
