Carshalton Methodist Church TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022

Introduction

Carshalton Methodist Church is registered with the Charity Commissioners and its registration number is 1128616. Correspondence should be sent to the Senior Steward at The Church Office, 2 Ruskin Road, Carshalton, SM5 3DE.

Aims and organisation

The purposes of the Methodist Church are and shall be deemed to have been since the Date of Union the advancement

of:

Aims of Carshalton Methodist Church:

Our local priorities being: 1 To develop the spiritual life of the Church and to attract increased membership. 2 Reach out to and be a resource for the local community. 3 The ongoing upgrading of our premises to facilitate worship and community use.

Worship

We have had an interesting mix of worship during the year as a result of covid. During national lockdowns we continued to worship at home, with our ministers providing weekly Youtube reflections, with Bible readings and hymns led by members of the congregation and the choir. For those who are not online, we provided a transcript of the Youtube service and delivered them weekly. Since Easter 2022, we have held regular Sunday morning worship, although we have maintained a certain amount of social distancing with chairs. Each Sunday we have a regular group of members with learning difficulties attending.

Monthly evening meetings offered informal worship and discussion, and the leading of services, both morning and evening has been shared by Circuit Ministers, Accredited Local Preachers, and our own Worship Leaders. The evening prayer service has been meeting regularly on the 2nd Sunday of the month via Zoom. The Junior Church, (Young Explorers), continue to meet in an adjoining hall, occasionally joining the services at the end to tell the congregation what they have been learning about. The Young Explorers presented a Nativity to the congregation, and a video about Fairtrade, both during the services.

Rep Ops review

Our usual parade services only started again in March 2022, when we felt more confident that COVID was less of a threat. We are gradually building them up to our usual numbers of 50 or 60 scouts and guides. Even when we were not meeting for a parade, we continued to involve them in the festivals, providing displays in the church and opening the church during their usual meeting times so they could see the displays of other sections. Either a worship leader or the minister to give a short talk.

Since the pandemic, we have continued to support those who are unable to come to church by giving them the Methodist weekly Worshipping from Home service sheets along with our notices. We also have an audio recording of each service, which is sent to people who have requested this.

Our church is a member of Churches Together in Carshalton (CTIC), supporting the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, with a midweek service in our church, and the Walk of Witness on Good Friday. Church members also provided support for the CTIC stall at the local eco fair in August.

We have also been collecting food for the local food bank, even during lockdown.

Home groups continued to meet monthly, discussing a variety of different topics with a biblical base, until lockdown. One continued to meet via Zoom during lockdown.

Pastoral visitors have kept in contact with the membership with regular phone calls, particularly to the elderly, to check that they are coping with the situation. Leaders have maintained contact with their members.

In October, a group of members went ona pilgrimage to lona, ably led by the minister and her husband. This proved very spiritually refreshing and was enjoyed by all who went.

The Fundraising Team has begun to organise events again, which have enabled us to outreach to the local community. We also opened the church during the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee with displays from the decades of her reign. This proved popular with 30 or 40 people coming daily to visit.

We have installed a visual technology system which has enabled us to enhance our services with artwork, PowerPoints and videos. We were able to use this during the Jubilee celebrations to show special events during that period.

A considerable investment of time by our webmaster has continued to raise our profile and enables people to contact us easily, giving us a very comprehensive, informative, and frequently updated website: www.carshalton-methodist.org.uk. There is ‘worshipping at home’ page which gives links to sites which provide material for this purpose. We have also created a Facebook page, which provides more opportunities to advertise ourselves. We also advertise monthly in the Beeches Directory.

The church oversees its OFSTED registered Pre-school, which is run on the premises, providing a child development service to local families. They have an Ofsted rating of Good.

Since the relaxing of covid lockdown, our cinema has begun to flourish again, with regular monthly showings on both afternoon and evening. it continues to be well supported and many people from the community look forward to these films.

The Camera Club and Choral Society meetings on our premises have continued drawing visitors to their exhibitions and concerts, respectively. This year, the Annual Camera Club exhibition was held in the church having been previously held online due to COVID restrictions.

Our weekly Mother and Toddler Group continues to draw parents with their children. We have a full range of uniformed organisations from the scout and guides associations which are now attending three or four church parades a year.

Through Operation Christmas Child, church members and people from the local area filled shoe boxes with gifts for disadvantaged children around the world. Collections of tins and packet food are donated regularly to the Sutton Foodbank, by our members and from other people who use our premises, to support the needy of the locality.

Rep Ops review

In April we opened up a weekly café which serves refreshments and light lunches. We have a steady trickle of people who take advantage of this, either to meet friends or otherwise to chat with the helpers and we have made a number of contacts through this.

Time Together meets monthly, for coffee in the café and then for a short Biblical reflection in another hall. This is followed by a hot meal. This is well supported, particularly by the elderly and those who live alone.

Knit and Natter meets monthly, providing an opportunity for people in our church and the local community to meet together for a friendly chat whilst pursuing their chosen activity, although this paused for COVID but has now restarted.

The church aimed, last year, to continue to reach out to our local community and to respond to need to develop the worship and spiritual life of our church.

Our response to the worshipping community both during and after the pandemic, the outreach opportunities listed above, and our support of various charities are evidence of the way we reach out to our local community, including younger children.

Financial Review

The Church’s income and expenditure accounts for the year ended 31 August 2022 and its balance sheet as at 31 August 2022 form part of this annual report. The Church, and Pre School delivered a deficit of (£23,705) compared to a surplus of £26,898 in the prior year. The Church deficit was (£22,955) compared to a surplus of £14,585 in 2020/21. The PreSchool made a deficit of (£750) compared to a surplus of £12,312 in 2020/21. The Church invested in new AV equipment which primarily caused this deficit.

As at 31 August 2022 the Managing Trustees had control of local reserves amounting to £159,770 plus reserves held at TMCP in Manchester.

Reserves Policy Statement

The Church updated its reserves policy statement outlining the purpose and processes involved in managing the various monies under the Church Council's control. The statement forms part of this annual report.

Risk Management

The Leadership Team, the Finance and Property Committees have updated their specific risks and its report was approved at Church Council meeting held on 9 November 2022. An annual review is carried out of the current assessment of the risks impacting on its operations and finances. Plans are formulated to mitigate these risks.

Plans for 2022/23

Our minister has retired and has been replaced by a Deacon whose main focus is outreach. The Leadership Team is continuing to build up the Church by prayer, Bible study and worship. We continue to embrace the Sutton Circuit Development plan, developing our own aims for the forthcoming year, which also feed into the circuit's aims. We aim to be a welcoming church where people feel at home and have had a number of new people join us and choose to stay.

Rep Ops review

Carshalton Methodist Church

Trustee Training

A range of guidance produced by Methodist Connexion to support the effective running of the church and the role of Trustees is given to the Church Trustees.

Related Parties

The Church is part of the Sutton (Surrey) Circuit which is part of the London District and is also accountable to the Methodist Conference.

The only internal organisation linked to this church is the Pre-School.

Safeguarding

Every person has a value and dignity which comes directly from the creation of male and female in God’s own image and likeness. Christians see this potential as fulfilled by God’s re-creation of us in Christ. Among other things this implies a duty to value all people as bearing the image of God and therefore to protect them from harm.

Methodist Connexional practice outlines commitment to the following principles:

Inall these principles we will follow legislation, guidance and recognised good practice

The Carshalton Methodist Church commits itself to ensuring the implementation of Connexional Safeguarding Policy; government legislation, guidance and safe practice in the circuit and in the churches.

The Carshalton Methodist Church commits itself to the provision of support, advice and training for lay and ordained people that will ensure people are clear and confident about their roles and responsibilities in safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and adults who may be vulnerable.

Reserves Policy as at 31 August 2022

This statement outlines the Carshalton Methodist Church’s reserves policy and its process for managing the Church’s finances to cover present, ongoing and future liabilities. There are ten designated allocations of the Church’s reserves as follows:

Rep train related safe reserves

(h) Ruskin Road Pre-School (i) Pre-School Employment

(i) The Trustees for Methodist Church Purposes (TMCP)

General Reserves

(a) General - £41k

The Church Treasurer holds the Church’s revenue funds in the Charity Aid Foundation (CAF) bank account. Other funds are held in a Central Finance Board deposit account. Its legacies are held by the Methodist Church Property Division and are used mainly to pay for building projects.

This year the routine and one-off giving, including related gift aid, has covered our key payment of the Church's Circuit Share. The general reserve now covers 100% of the Circuit share annual payment of £31,000 which is an excellent position. This Circuit share payment is made quarterly in advance.

Designated allocations held for specific purposes

(b) Outreach - £4k

The amount in this designated reserve can be used for the Church’s outreach programme.

Our main outreach this year has been through our monthly advertising in the Beeches directory. We have promoted our Harvest Service, Operation Christmas Child’s shoe box appeal and our Christmas services. We have used banners to encourage people to have hope in this difficult time and this included an Advent Calendar which a number of people stopped to engage with.

We opened the Church during the Queen's Platinum Jubilee with displays from the decades of her reign. This included floral tributes for each of her jubilee celebrations. The costs incurred were taken from this fund.

(c) Building and Cottage Development - £42k

Income into this fund is predominantly from the cottage rent received together with income from Fund Raising.

The Church has a “rolling maintenance and minor improvement” programme and the ongoing income will be spent in this area. During this financial year the Church spent £31k on an Audio Visual system and committed to spend £12k on the refurbishment of the Ruskin Hall ladies toilets. Our Property Committee continues to identify the costs of property priorities and will bring them to Church Council in due course but funds, including grants, may need to be identified to carry out this work.

(d) Organ - £9k

Donations towards repairs, refurbishment, or other improvements to the organ are placed in this reserve. Routine maintenance costs are met from the General Fund. The church organist, taking advice from professional organ builders and others, may from time to time bring proposals to the Church Council as to how this fund should be used. Repair work started in October 2018 and a sum of £8.6k has been spent to date.

(e) Benevolence - £0.3k This designated reserve is spent at the discretion of the Minister and is used to support people in times of need and for special one off payments that may be required. No payments were made from this fund during 2021/22. Future contributions to this designated reserve will come from the General Fund.

(f) Ruskin Community Cinema - £6k The Church's community cinema re-opened in October 2021 after being stopped as a result of Covid restrictions and lockdowns since March 2020. The income for the cinema comes from donations and sales income from audiences . This covers the cinema’s operational costs, including film licences, and builds towards the renewal and improvement of equipment.

Rep train related safe reserves

(g) Arts - £5k

The income for this designated reserve was donated to the Church by the Ruskin Players in 2017/18.

(h) Ruskin Road Pre-School - £40k

This restricted reserve supports the cash-flow requirements of the Church’s Pre-School and has decreased by £750. Unlike the previous financial year the Pre-School has remained open since September 2022. The Church employs up to eight part-time staff and is registered with Ofsted and the London Borough of Sutton. Pupil numbers can rise and fall during the school year and a reasonable balance is needed to maintain liquidity and support continuity in the present volatile times.

(j) Pre-School Employment - £13k

This reserve was created in 2011/12 to cover advice and other costs that the Church might incur in respect of staff employed for the Pre-School staff currently and in the future. The amount required to cover any financial liabilities that could arise as a result of employing staff or which might result from changes in the market for pre-school. The figures have been reassessed and uplifted to the appropriate level for the forthcoming financial year.

(k) The Trustees for Methodist Church Purposes (TMCP) - £128k

This reserve consists of legacies left to the Church but it is held on our behalf by the TMCP part of Methodism. It consists of a £15k Endowment Fund and other designated funds of £113k. It is being held for significant building projects.

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 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 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.

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