Priest in Charge’s Report

Covidi9

The Covidl2 pandemic was ongoing during 2021. We live streamed from church via YouTube from January to March 2021 and opened the church buildings for worship to resume in person on Easter day. We continue to run a hybrid model whereby we are ‘live’ on YouTube, whilst leading the service to a gathered congregation and have a number of people who watch the service and sermon on ‘catch-up’ (as they would with Netflix!). Covid precautions were in place to different degrees throughout 2021.

Services & Worship

Last year in 2021 we had 139 subscribers to our YouTube channel, but as of March 2022 we have 180 subscribers. We have about 100 views of each service, with between 30 — 40 people watching live.

We've taken 8 funerals, 3 weddings,1wedding blessing, 3 child baptisms and 5 adult baptisms in 2021.

We've celebrated Mothering Sunday, marked Lent, celebrated through Holy Week and Easter, Pentecost, Harvest, Remembrance, hosted Lodge Brothers Christmas Remembrance service, and held several well attended Christmas services.

Prayer

We've hosted a number of online prayer events, and held ‘The Gathering’ online. We've done a few half nights and 24hrs of prayer online. Our PCC held an away day in September 2021.

Staffing

Our staff team has expanded this year. Our curate, the Rev Chris Curry joined us in July and Quentin joined the team as a part time Communications manager in October. Tipi is in her final year as a Youth apprentice. Rajini was made redundant during the pandemic as the needs of the church rapidly changed. We are grateful for her contribution to Parish life and wish her the best for her future ventures. The staff team have all had

2

first aid training and Sarah also had training in mental health first aid. Sarah stepped down as Area Dean in May 2021.

Schools

Our assemblies have been delivered online and in person for St Paul’s primary school. Sarah has become chair of Governors at Ealing Fields secondary school, which moved into the parish in September 2020. We've also made contact with Brentford School for Girls, and Tipi delivered a number of short courses on anxiety for the students. We've done a candle lighting workshop year 4 at St Paul’s and hosted schools visits from Green Dragon Primary School.

Community Engagement

Children & Youth

We reopened Kids Café in September 2021, with the opening of Spire Café. This is held on Tuesday mornings from 9am — 10.30am and has been full since we started, welcoming around 30-40 pre-schoolers and their carers every week. Three30, our after school club was launched in September and opens three times a week from Tuesday to Thursday. Brentford Youth is held on Sunday evenings from 5 —- 6.30pm and Sunday School groups are available every Sunday. We're grateful to Tipi for her hard work with our youth and children.

Mission and Evangelism

Refurbishment

We've taken advantage of the closed buildings and refurbished St Paul's, thanks to Jacky Douglas who has worked for us as a Project Manager. We've re-sanded the floor, painted the church, narthex and meeting rooms, and put in a new kitchen in the Narthex, glazing and new bathrooms and toilets. We've updated our signage and opened Spire Café in August 2021, which has been very popular and well received by the local community.

Looking ahead

The major change and announcement this year, has been that the PCC unanimously agreed to the temporary closure of St Faith’s. Our last service at St Faith’s was 16" January 2022, since when the St Faith’s church family has worshipped together with the St Paul’s church family, at St Paul’s at a new time of 10.30am. This decision had been discussed and prayed about for over a year before sharing this with both congregations. The church family at St Faith’s have understandably felt this loss deeply, but we all remain hopeful and confident that God is calling us to a new vision and purpose at St Faith’s. We hope and pray that as and when we can recruit an Associate, we will begin to dream dreams about planting back into St Faith’s. In the meantime, we are focusing on this next major step as we worship as one church family in the Parish of Brentford.

Thanks

lam deeply appreciative to those who work tirelessly for the Parish, whether they are paid or volunteers. My thanks to our Church wardens, LLM’s and PCC who are supportive and wise, our dedicated staff team who work hard and many of our volunteers, who spend considerable time invested in the life and ministry of the Church. | feel excited by what God is doing amongst us and in our wider community.

Children and Youth APCM Report

Play Café

Play Café (re-named Kids’ Café) kicked off again in September after the disturbance of COVID. By December, we had met with 109 children through Play Café, with an average attendance of 36 children per session. After the long break, we’ve managed to rebuild relationships with both parents and carers, as well as young children. These relationships have led to families coming along to church services with their children, becoming regular attendees.

Assemblies and Schools Work

At the beginning of 2021, we were still recording online assemblies for St Paul's School, then by September we reverted to weekly in person assemblies.

Tipi began delivering the Anxiety Course she put together in Ealing Fields High School and Brentford School for Girls. She met with 24 children altogether talking about mental health and coping methods.

Sunday school

Sunday school moved to in-person, using the Group system, separating Sunday school groups on a fortnightly rotation to protect from the spread of COVID. In the Summer term, we reintroduced the weekly younger kids and middle kids groups, then the younger youth group in September. Since September, we have hosted up to 40 children on a Sunday morning across both church sites.

Brentford Youth

During lockdown, Brentford Youth met online via zoom. As the year went on, we found numbers decreased, however saw that the few that did come appreciated the pastoral support. In summer term, we began youth in

10

person again, however split the group into younger and older youth and alternated every other week, then brought them back together in summer.

Towards the end of the year, we saw young people join the youth group from coming into relationship in Three3o, the after-school club. We saw relationships grow and strengthen in the final youth session of the year, the sleepover at St Paul’s before Christmas. It was encouraging to see the young people bond and see relationships develop among them that we had been praying for.

After School Hub

Three30O started in September and we quickly saw a regular attending of[12] young people on a Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. We had a training session with the team, attended by the Youth and School's Chaplain from the Bishop's Office, Jo Jones.

We've seen young people come along to the church service on a Sunday morning, bringing their families along with them.

Trips

In 2021, six young people from Brentford Youth attended the Kensington Area Youth Away Day. At this event, Macy and Tipi encouraged the children to do things that scared them, such as climbing high and challenged them, such as an escape room.

Sara and Tipi also took 8 young people along to the Urban Saints South East Summer Camp. All the young people asked to be prayed for to be filled with the Holy Spirit.

St Faith’s Churchwardens’ report

It’s been another eventful and challenging year at St Faith’s, with a huge amount of change since last year’s APCM,

The year started quietly enough, with people gradually coming out of lockdown and our usual pattern of services being resumed. We had well attended Christmas services including a Nativity and Carol Service anda small regular group of children attending Sunday School most weeks. Hestia have continued to use the building for four days a week, supporting survivors of modern slavery. In line with this, several people across the parish took part in an online course called ’Hidden Voices’ which was organised by Compassionate Communities and run by the Clewer Initiative. This aimed to educate us, highlighting the prevalence of modern slavery in our communities, how to spot it, and what to do about it. All those who went on it could not help but be very moved by what they learned. In fact, Jacky Douglas, from St Faith’s, was inspired to volunteer to run an art project on behalf of Hestia called ‘Art is Freedom’. Survivors of slavery had an opportunity to express how they felt through art and poetry, and their work went into a moving exhibition at St Paul’s Cathedral in the summer.

However, the most fundamental event this year was the consultation of the St Faith’s PCC and then the wider PCC about temporarily closing the church building and joining with the congregation at St Paul's for a time of regrouping and seeking God for a new vision and mission. This has been a painful process for all involved and we have had to really seek what God wants for us at St Faith’s and as part of the Parish of Brentford as a whole. However, it is also deeply exciting to be following where God wants us to be as we step out in faith to new opportunities and horizons.

We had two excellent services in January to help the St Faith’s people process the move. The first was a chance for us to mourn and say goodbye, but also to celebrate people and events from the past and present. Jane Bezant dug out lots of old photos which we looked at together (whilst drinking Prosecco and eating cake). We then planted some spring bulbs in

12

the shape of a cross in the lawn at the front of the church to symbolise new growth, and we are pleased to see that some of them have come up this year already. The following week was a joint service with St Paul’s congregation and Bishop Graham came to lead the service. He encouraged us to look forward, embrace change and seek what God has in store for us as a parish.

Since then, we have been attending St Paul’s and are slowing getting settled into a new routine and a new way of doing things. People from St Faith’s have been very bold and open to hearing where God wants to take them next. We will be praying monthly in St Faith’s, seeking a new vision for the people who will be planted there in perhaps a couple of years time Meanwhile, the hall lettings have been going from strength to strength, thanks to Claude. He has donea brilliantjob of renting out the church hall at St Faith’s for numerous parties and events at the weekend and bookings are very much up now that people can meet freely. The nursery, which rents the hall during the week, seems to be going very well, which is great news all round, so the hall is producing a good income for us.

The numbers worshipping at our services have remained reasonably static this year, with most of our usual congregation reappearing after the lock down, though some have remained watching the service online, and a couple have moved into residential care. Sadly, we lost Jim Gordon who passed away on 24th September.

The temporary closure of the building brings its own challenges. Luckily Hestia will be in there to notice any day-to-day issues with the roof leaking or problems with the heating, and the organ needs to be played regularly and any issues kept on top of.

We are looking forward to seeing what the new vision may include, hopefully we can include some work on the building, perhaps putting ina sink for teas and coffee at the back and new carpets and church linen. We will need to wait and pray and listen to what God has in store for us all, and we ask for the whole parish to join us in these prayers.

St Paul’s Churchwardens’ report

FABRIC

January 2021 saw the start of another few months of rigorous lockdown, with our doors once again closed for public worship, However, with firm plans in place for the opening of the café in the Narthex and for the starting of the after-school hub, money was released from the trust fund and other charitable help was obtained; the completion of the upgrading and decoration was able to be done and we were ready to wow the congregation when the doors were opened for a joyful Easter.

Joel's continued work on the heating, sound and lighting is making our space inviting and comfortable for all who visit. Our thanks go to Sarah who keeps a close eye on all that is happening and who responds quickly to any problems. Jacky Douglas, as project manager, has had the vision to give us a space to be proud of. It is noted that visitors regularly comment on the sense of comfort and peace they find in the building — a fitting tribute to the efforts which have been made in Christ’s name here.

CHURCH COMMUNITY

For the first three months of the year, all our services were conducted on line or via a telephone link. The number worshipping over these weeks was consistently high, usually over a hundred —a tribute to Sarah’s preaching and the music of the band. It is uplifting to think how many people joined us and whom we never meet in person, yet we have been one in worship and praise.

Easter saw a happy reopening the doors and a cautious but steady return of our congregation. The PCC made the decision to continue with access to telephone and YouTube services so that those of our community who still had worries over vulnerability or social contact, could join in services.

14

Numbers in person have grown and we welcome new people on a regular basis.

As restrictions relaxed, we were able to put the plans for community use of St Paul's into practice. The Spire Café opened gently in August and over the following weeks Jo has built up a regular clientele, who can enjoy a healthy breakfast, a tasty soup for lunch or a cup of coffee with one of her lovely cakes.

The after-school hub, Three30 started up in September and is open three days a week for secondary school youngsters, and is organised to great effect by Tipi. Sunday School began again in person and there are often thirty or so children present. The Youth Club meets regularly on a Sunday evening.

Also in the autumn, Kids’ Café started life on a Tuesday morning in the narthex, where preschool children can make use of the soft-play area and mums can have a chat over coffee in a warm safe place. This is proving to be a great success for our local community. Some teaching input is included, (stories, songs), and we are finding that some of the families are beginning to come on a Sunday.

After what was an undeniably sad and harsh start to 2021, we have been made aware of the Lord’s work in Brentford, in what we have been able to achieve in our space — somewhere that is alive and welcoming with a spirit for Christ’s work on earth.

Financial Review 2021
----- End of picture text -----

This is my first report as Treasurer of the Parish of Brentford having taken on the role from i January 2022.

Since taking on the role, there has much to learn about the parish's finances and | am grateful to Claude Lobo, Steve Purcell and Sheila Burt who have all helped.

In reviewing the parish's finances, | think it is helpful to split this into 4 sections: these being.

The parish’s finances are split into 3 separate funds:

As well as our funds, the parish benefits from a trust, the Parish of Brentford Trust (Fund 1). This trust is administered by separate trustees from the PCC. Funds in the trust do not form part of the parish's finances but with the support of the trustees have generally been used to fund major refurbishments and provide some income to the parish. In recent years, grants from the trust have also been used to make good the gap between our annual operating costs and our generated income.

Looking Back at 2021

Locking at the headline numbers, our financial performance in 2021 is alarming; there is a negative swing (before gains/losses on investments) of over £100,000 from £67,129 surplus in 2020 to a deficit of £36,740 in 2021.

20

However, the underlying financial performance in both years is closer than the numbers might initially convey. The table on the following page provides a more detailed breakdown of the performance between 2020 and 2021.

Total income from Giving and Lettings is greater in 2021 than 2020 by over £30,000 and sizeable transfers were received from the trust fund in both years. The big difference is in

21

St Paul's refurbishment costs where funds received in 2020 were used to pay for works in 2021.

if looking purely at the Unrestricted funds, 2020 had a surplus of around £5000 (including a £76,638 grant from the Parish of Brentford Trust); 2021 had a deficit of around £9,600 {including a £53, 891 grant from the Parish of Brentford Trust). In both years, we are dependent on grants to support the parish finances.

Where are we now?

The 2022 budget has a planned expenditure of £295,095 and income of £244,350 resulting in an expected deficit of £50,745.

Expenditure is similar to 2021 but without the cost of St. Paul's refurbishment; income allows for an increase in giving (20%) and increased lettings activity (15%).

Making up this deficit will require a similar level of grant from the Parish of Brentford Trust as per 2021.

Looking Forward

In January 2018, The Parish of Brentford Trust had a value of £801,274.

Following withdrawals for St Paul's refurbishment activities, and other financial support to the parish, the fund currently stands at £602,462 (on 31** December 2021).

Looking forward the parish should not rely on the Parish of Brentford Trust to fund its annual operating costs; it needs to manage its existing expenditure and grow income to eliminate the current deficit.

It is not possible to eliminate this deficit this year, but it is recommended that the PCC puts in place a plan to eliminate this deficit over an agreed time, say 3 years.

Whilst the details of the plan would need to be agreed; increasing income from lettings, encouraging giving and managing any increases in expenditure are all required.

Before concluding this report, it is worth noting that the parish owns one significant asset, a property in Brook Road South. Currently this property is rented out and provides an income to the parish. This value of this property was last reviewed in December 2018 when its value was increased from £285,000 to £500,000. As part of the 2021 accounts, the value of the property has been increased toe £708,250.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE PARISH OF BRENTFORD ST FAITH’S AND ST PAUL’S

| report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 December 2021, which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Statement of Financial Position and the related notes.

Respective responsibilities of Parochial Church Council and examiner

The Parochial Church Council are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s Parochial Church Council consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and the seeking of 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, no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner’s statement

Since the Charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. | confirm that | am qualified to undertake the examination because | a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.

Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared accounts in accordance with Accounting and reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in reference to the accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued in 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn.

| understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.

In connection with my examination, | confirm that no matter has come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

° accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or

e the accounts do not accord with those records; or e the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

| have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  1. Charity Information The Church is a charity registered with the Charity Commission, constituted under the PCC Powers measure Act 1956 as amended and Church Representation Rules 2017. The charity is a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

  2. 1.1 Accounting convention

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 4 January 2016).

The accounts have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a true and fair view. This departure has involved following the Statement of Recommended Practice for Charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the regulations but has since been withdrawn.

The accounts are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statement are rounded to the nearest whole pound.

1.2 Going concern At the time of approving the accounts the Parochial Church Council (PCC) have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the PCC continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

Endowment funds:-

Are funds, the capital of which must be maintained; only income arising from investment of the endowment may be used either as restricted or unrestricted funds depending upon the purpose for which the endowment was established.

Restricted funds:-

Represent (a) income from trusts or endowments which may be expended only on those restricted objects provided in the terms of the trust or bequest, and (b) donations or grants received for a specific object or invited by the PCC for a specific object. The funds may only be expended on the specific object for which they were given. Any balance remaining unspent at the end of each year must be carried forward as a balance on that fund. The PCC does not usually invest separately for each fund. Where there is no separate investment interest is apportioned to individual funds on an average balance basis.

Unrestricted funds:-

Are general funds which can be used for PCC ordinary purposes.

Designated funds:-

Are unrestricted funds where money has been set aside for specific purpose by the PCC. They may be undesignated and money moved to other such funds at the discretion of the PCC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021

1.4 Incoming resources

Planned giving, collections and donations are recognised when received.

Tax refunds are recognised when the incoming resource to which they relate is received.

Grants and legacies are recognised when there is sufficient certainty that they will be received and the incoming resources can be measured with sufficient reliability.

Job retention scheme grants are recognised in the period to which the underlying furlough staff costs relate to.

Dividends and interest are accounted for when received. All other income is recognised when receivable. All incoming resources are accounted for gross.

1.5 Resources expended

Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over, or when awarded, if that award creates a binding or constructive obligation on the PCC. The diocesan parish share is accounted for when due. Amounts received specifically for mission are dealt with as restricted money.

All other expenditure is generally recognised when it is incurred and is accounted for gross.

1.6 Creditors and provisions for liabilities and charges

A liability is recognised for the amount that the charity anticipates it will pay to settle a debt or the amount it has received as an advance payment for goods or services it must provide. A provision is recognised when:

: there is a present obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event; : itis probable that a transfer of economic benefit, usually in the form of cash, will be required in settlement; and : the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.

For use by the PCC

in so far as consecrated and benefice property of any kind is excluded from the statutory definition of “charity” by Section 10(2) (a) and (c) of the Charities Act 2011 such assets are not capitalised in the financial statements.

Moveable church furnishings held by the vicar and churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal are inalienable property, listed in the church's inventory, which can be inspected (at any reasonable time).

Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight-line basis over 5 years. Individual items of equipment with a purchase price of £1,000 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.

Investment property

The trustees’ policy is that freehold property held for investment purposes is included at the trustees’ best estimate of market value, based on local house prices or independent valuations where available.

Investment property is not depreciated. Unrealised gains and losses are taken to the Statement of Comprehensive Income under the heading of gains/(losses) on tangible fixed assets and are shown as a separate unrestricted reserve on the Statement of Financial Position.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021

Other Investments

Investments are valued at market value with gains or losses recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

Support costs are allocated to individual activities where they directly related to that activity. Where the support cost is not directly related to an individual activity it is allocated to activities on the basis of the proportion of total direct resources expended for each activity.

These funds arose out of the proceeds of sale of the site of St James Gunnersbury. There are 2 funds managed by a separate Board of Trustees.

The managing trustees may from time to time at their absolute discretion, permit (at a meeting of the Trustees) the release or sale of all or part of the capital of the first fund to finance major or urgent repair work and/or capital expenditure to church buildings within the parish of Brentford.

The managing trustees may from time to time at their absolute discetion, permit {at a meeting of the trustees), the release of part of the capital of the first fund to be transferred to the second fund (CT1001A). The second fund is to be used for general ecclesiastical purposes and as such, the transfer from the first fund can be used for meeting the parish's annual common fund commitment, if necessary and in response to a formal request from the PCC.

The second fund, both capital and income, is available for expenditure at the discretion of the PCC although the funds are managed by the trustees.

The trustees produce separate accounts for trust fund one and figures relating to it are NOT included in these accounts.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
