## **Structure, governance and management** 

The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules.  All Church attendees are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the PCC. The PCC operates through various committees, which meet between full meetings of the PCC. 

## _Standing Committee_ : 

This is the only committee required by law.  It has power to transact business of the PCC between meetings, subject to any directions given by the PCC.  It comprises the incumbent, churchwardens, secretary and treasurer. 

## _Children’s work:_ 

Coordinates the work of our Sunday youth groups for children of all ages. 

## _Social and Fund Raising:_ 

Coordinates social events for the parish and fund-raising projects to support the work of the PCC, and in particular for specific identified tangible needs. 

## _Property Management:_ 

Attends to matters relating to the stewardship of plant, such as church buildings and fabric, the churchyards, 99 Gillmans Road and the Old Church Hall (Amity Blinds). 

Page 1 



## _Finance and Stewardship:_ 

Advises the PCC and assists the treasurer on financial policy and accounting matters.  Coordinates the development of Christian stewardship in the parish.  This encompasses gifts of money through planned giving and also gifts of time and talents to support the wide needs of our busy church. 

## _Festival Choir:_ 

Organises and raises funds to support regular concerts and other musical events (through social events, sale of tickets and a Friends’ scheme) for the All Saints’ Festival Choir and Orchestra. 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

All Saints’ PCC has the responsibility of co-operating with the incumbent in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical.  It also has maintenance responsibilities for the Church and Hall complex and 99 Gillmans Road, Orpington. 

## **Achievements and Performance** 

## Clergy and Lay Ministers 

The PCC is very grateful to: 

The Rev’ds Chris and Carol Kitchener The Rev’d Canon Tim Mercer The Rev’d John Musson (Area Dean of Orpington) The Rev’d Ann Uphill Mrs Abi Hiscock (Lay Minister) Mrs Pam Mercer (Lay Minister) and Mrs Sheila Anderson (Pastoral Assistant) 

They were supported by several members of the congregation who led Morning Prayer and Evening Prayer and enabled us to say both Daily Offices on every weekday – something that very few parish churches manage to achieve - as well as providing assistance to the Vicar with home communions for those unable to receive the sacrament in church. 

## Church attendance 

The Electoral Roll was revised prior to the annual meetings which took place in May 2021.  There were 115 members on the Roll, a reduction of 4 from the previous year. The average attendance at All Saints’ on a Sunday in the period from April to December when the church was fully open was 73 adults and 9 children.  This average hides a gradual increase in attendance as church members became increasingly comfortable attending public worship. 

## The PCC 

The full PCC met seven times during the year with an average level of attendance of 87%.  Committees met between meetings and minutes were received by the full PCC and discussed where necessary. As well as the committees listed above, there are many other groups that help take forward the ministry and mission of the church.  Some of these have used Zoom meetings or personal contact between members instead of or as well as formal meetings. 

The reduction in our income referred to under “Financial Review” below necessitated a matching reduction in the extent of our financial support to charitable causes.  The PCC decided only to donate to charities in which All Saints was directly involved or where members of our parish played a significant role.  The Michael Project and the work of Helen and David Hobbs in Zimbabwe continued to receive the greatest support.

## Public Worship 

The third lockdown started on 5[th] January and continued until Passion Sunday.  During that period, we celebrated the Eucharist in church every Sunday, but following the guidance, only those conducting the service and those streaming it were present in person.  The streamed service on Facebook was well received by the congregation and many from further afield.  On Palm Sunday we reverted to the normal pattern of a Sunday 8 a.m. Holy Communion (Book of Common Prayer) and 9.30 a.m. Parish Eucharist and a Wednesday 10 am said Eucharist.  Initially only the choir was allowed to sing but later in the year the congregation could join in fully.  All these services are streamed, attracting an estimated average of 50 viewers each week. 

Morning Prayer was said in church and streamed to Facebook on weekdays.  We experimented with starting weekday Evening Prayer in Advent 2020 and were delighted that there were sufficient volunteers from the congregation to continue saying this service throughout 2021.  The service is streamed daily and was also said in church in the summer months.  With the daily office twice a day augmenting our weekly Eucharists we are offering more opportunities to join in worship than any other church in the area, and we know from comments received how valuable this facility is to many who are shielding, housebound or nervous about going out, not only in our congregation but much further afield.  This is perhaps the most important innovative feature of All Saints’ ministry. 

There was an attendance of 86 and 68 communicants on Easter Day 2021 – a delight as public worship was not permitted at Easter 2020.  At Christmastide the omicron variant was affecting numbers but there were no formal restrictions on holding services.  Attendance at various carol services for the congregation, the community, schools, and a local firm of funeral directors attracted a total attendance of 430. The Eucharists on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day attracted 77 (2020 – 91) communicants and an attendance of 112 (96). 

There were 8 (2020 – 6) Baptisms, which usually took place on Sunday afternoons.  There were 2 (2) Marriages.  20 (13) Funerals took place in church or the churchyard and 5 (3) services were conducted at a crematorium by the All Saints’ ministry team. 

## Music 

Our Sunday worship has settled on a format with a Choral Eucharist and Choral Evensong on the first Sunday of the month, with an augmented choir.  The parish Eucharist on the other Sundays is also sung, but to settings that are more amenable to congregational worship.  The junior choir has small numbers but thrives.  For the first time for many years the opening solo of Once in Royal David’s City at the Nine Lessons and Carols service was sung by a junior choir member.  Sadly, covid has prevented the Director of Music, Phoebe Tak Man Chow from accessing primary schools to build the junior choir, or attracting choral scholars from secondary schools. The PCC remains keen to support strengthening our small but enthusiastic volunteer choir and to expand our music programme as outreach to the wider community. 

## Reaching our members 

We are communicating both parish news and worship material to the congregation and the wider public through our Facebook page, our website and sending out the weekly pew sheet and the parish magazine by email to well over 100 people, all of which have been very well received.  Sadly Faith Online, which enabled those who are not connected to the internet to dial in to hear All Saints’ sermons, readings and prayers, ceased to trade during the year.  We have directed people to the dial in service provided by the national Church (Daily Hope), but this is not specific to All Saints.  Because we have not been able to gather in the building, we have gone out into the wider parish community, and beyond.  In addition to our church members tuning into our streamed worship, we have worshippers from as far away as New Zealand, Canada and America, as well as former parishioners from All Saints who have moved away but still consider All Saints their spiritual home. 

## Young people 

Once we re-opened at Easter 2021, Young Saints met in person on Sundays, having reverted to Zoom meetings for the first part of the year.  The Thursday Tots group was also able to restart.  Both these 

Page 3 



groups have seen their numbers increase to pre-pandemic levels.  We were also able to restart the quarterly Parade Services with our associated groups of Scouts and Guides, and held parades at Harvest and our annual Christmas Toy Service. 

## The Church Building and Churchyard 

As advisd last year, we received a generous grant of £46,000 from Historic England as part of the Government’s Culture Recovery Fund.  This enabled us to install a vertical damp proof course around the windows in the main church and hopefully eradicate a long-existing problem of water penetration. The work was competitively tendered and carried out in the first quarter. 

We raised funds for and substantially enhanced our ability to film, record, and stream services during the year.  From a “jury rig” we now have a professional setup at minimal cost as the design and development was carried out by churchwarden Duncan Hellicar.  We would like to improve the look of the church by hiding the hanging wires, but this requires funds to be raised or donated. 

The Churchyard benefitted from links with a local Community Payback group who have cleared a huge amount of overgrown vegetation and have unearthed tens of graves that have not been seen for years. Our maintenance contractors idverde have assisted by removing tons of waste material at no cost. We have a plan to complete the beech hedge round the new churchyard, Newell’s Meadow.  Aided by a donation of 500 trees, tubes and canes from 2[nd] Orpington Scouts we planted 600 seedlings in one weekend in January 2022 – a real community effort to Plant a Tree for the Jubilee. 

## **Risk Management** 

The PCC has identified the major risks that affect the work of the Church in the parish and controls are in place to mitigate the major risks.  Fire Risk assessments are reviewed for the church and hall annually and Health and Safety risk assessments have been undertaken.  Specific coronavirus risk assessments have been prepared for all public worship and activities, and we have ensured that users of the church and hall have appropriate risk assessments in place.  The PCC has ensured that it has complied with the duty under section 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016 (duty to have due regard to House of Bishops' guidance on safeguarding children and vulnerable adults).  The PCC is committed to ensuring that our church and hall are safe places for all who use them. 

## **Financial Review** 

The PCC budgeted a deficit of £15,900 for 2021.  This assumed an inflationary increase in giving of 2.2%.  In the event giving was slightly below budget, but overall the deficit for the year was only £3,300. This was mainly as a result of our tenants in the old church hall, Amity Blinds being able to repay rent that they missed in 2020; increased use of the hall by the new pre-school Sunny Kids; and the lower level of away giving referred to above. On the negative side interments in the churchyard remained at 2020 levels where we had anticipated an increase in activity. 

We held a stewardship campaign in the final quarter of the year, with support from the Diocese’s adviser on stewardship matters. This clearly encouraged some people to review their giving to All Saints’ and make increases, and nine household joined the stewardship scheme.  However, we were disappointed that we could only attract a response rate of 45% of those contacted – including negative responses. 

In view of the continuing poor outlook for interest rates, the PCC decided to take some risk with our reserves and invested £50,000 in a fund with exposure to equity markets.  We expect that over the long term this investment will produce a good capital return, although we accept volatility in market prices over the short term. 

The stewardship campaign and the change in investments have enabled the PCC to set a budget with a small deficit of £1,500 for 2022.  Our challenge must be to grow our numbers so that the increases in giving we will need in the coming years can be generated from new members rather than continually asking existing members for more.  In this way we will be able to maintain a balanced budget and secure All Saints financial future by living within our income. 

Page 4 



Christian Stewardship involves more than money, although it is money that pays the bills.  We welcome, with thanks, those who give their time and talents to the Church, through any of the whole range of voluntary jobs and groups referred to in this report.  Some jobs that need to be done are not onerous and take little time, but every small task done takes a bit of pressure off someone else, particularly the clergy.  For those who are pressed to contribute or to increase their cash giving, we ask that you consider whether there are other ways in which you can help the church.  There is much to do, so please ask. 

## **Reserves policy** 

It is the policy of the PCC to maintain unrestricted funds at a level that equates to approximately six months unrestricted expenditure.  This provides adequate funds to cover management and administration, and to respond to more substantial emergency work that may arise from time to time. A large part of the general funds has arisen from a very substantial legacy received in 2012. Consequently, the PCC has decided that it is appropriate to maintain unrestricted funds above the target level. 

Specific funds were held for various purposes as described in the Notes to the Accounts.  It is the PCC’s policy to invest our main balances with the CBF Church of England Funds.  Certain designated funds are held with the Rochester Diocesan Society and Board of Finance. 

## **Approved by the PCC on 24 March 2022** 

## **George M Rogers Chair** 

## **STATEMENT OF PCC MEMBERS’ RESPONSIBILITIES** 

Charity law requires the PCC members, as trustees, to prepare financial statements for each financial year that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the surplus or deficit of the charity for that period.  In preparing those financial statements, the PCC members are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. 

The PCC members are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011.   They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## **HONORARY INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ALL SAINTS, ORPINGTON** 

This report on the financial statements of the Parochial Church Council (the PCC) for the year ended 31 December 2021, which are set out on pages 7 to 15, is in respect of an examination carried out in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 (the Regulations) and section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (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 section 144 (2) of the Act does not apply. It is my responsibility to issue this report on those financial statements in accordance with the terms of the Regulations. 

## **Basis of this Report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145 (5) (b) of the Act, and to be found in the Church Guidance, 2006 edition, issued by the Finance Division of the Archbishops’ Council.  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 matters have come to my attention: 

- 1) which give me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements 

   - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act; and 

   - 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

**PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ALL SAINTS ORPINGTON NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006, together with applicable accounting standards, and the Charities SORP 2005.  The historical cost convention has been used except for the valuation of the freehold properties, which are shown at the Trustees’ valuation at 31st December 2021, and invested assets, which are shown at market value. 

## Funds 

General 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. Funds designated for a particular purpose by the PCC are also unrestricted.  Restricted funds have been given for a particular purpose.  In investing the funds the PCC draws no distinction between the different types of fund. 

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. 

## Incoming Resources 

Collections are recognised when received by or on behalf of the PCC. 

Planned giving receivable through Gift Aid is recognised when received and income tax recoverable on gift aid donations is recognised when the income is recognised. 

Grants and legacies to the PCC are accounted for when the PCC is notified of its legal entitlement and the amount due. 

Rental income from letting church premises is recognised when received and dividends and interest are recognised when receivable. 

## Gains and losses on investments 

Realised gains or losses are recognised on sale.  Unrealised gains or losses are accounted for on revaluation of investments at 31 December. 

## Resources expended 

Grants and donations are accounted for when paid. 

The diocesan contribution is accounted for when payable. 

## Fixed assets 

Consecrated and beneficed property is excluded from the accounts by section 96 (2) (a) of the Charities Act 1993. 

No value is placed on movable church furnishings held by the churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal since the PCC considers this to be inalienable property. All expenditure incurred during the year on consecrated or beneficed buildings and movable church furnishings, whether maintenance or improvement, is written off as expenditure in the Statement of Financial Activities and separately disclosed. 

Expenditure on equipment used within the church premises is written off when the asset is acquired. 

Investment assets are taken at market value at the balance sheet date. 

Page 9 



**PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ALL SAINTS ORPINGTON NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)** 

Investment properties are valued by the Trustees at 31[st] December.  An open market value has been assessed taking into account existing encumbrances.  The PCC believes this to be a fair reflection of the current value of the properties.  Revaluation of property in this way is not considered to be a departure from the historic cost basis of accounting.  No depreciation is charged on investment properties, which is contrary to generally accepted accounting standards.  The PCC considers that depreciation is only one of many factors taken into account in determining the value of such properties and the amount that might be disclosed cannot be separately identified or quantified. 

## Current assets 

Amounts owing to the PCC at 31 December in respect of fees, rents or other income are shown as debtors less provision for amounts that may prove uncollectable. 

Short-term deposits include cash held on deposit with the CBF Church of England Funds and in accounts with Rochester Diocesan Society and Board of Finance. 

## **2. RESTRICTED AND DESIGNATED FUNDS** 

The Cann Trust is a restricted fund related to the Churchyard Fund.  Income is used for upkeep of the churchyard.  Further details are given in Note 6. 

All Saints’ Festival Choir, which puts on termly concerts, and St Michael’s Guild, which is responsible for church flower arranging are considered to be restricted funds.  Those organisations receive donations and hold fund raising events for the specific purposes indicated. 

Donations for specific external charitable purposes that are not paid by the end of the year are held as restricted assets. 

With exception of the freehold property held in the Capital Fund, all designated funds hold only cash on deposit and in current accounts. 

Designated funds are held for the following purposes: 

|Capital – Real Property|Holds the Church’s property investments.  Income from this fund accrues to|
|---|---|
||General Funds.|
|Ministry Development Fund.  This fund was established by the PCC in 2018.  The purpose is to support||
||the costs of a second employed minister (ordained or lay) during the period|
||until the resultant increases in numbers and congregational giving make the|
||post self-supporting.|
|Churchyard Fund|Funds designated for the upkeep of the “new” churchyard – Newell’s|
||Meadow.  The churchyard surrounding the church is closed and upkeep is|
||the responsibility of the London Borough of Bromley.|
|Church Repair Funds|These funds are for work arising from quinquennial inspections of the various|
||church premises.|
|Organ Fund|Accumulated funds in the event of major work required to the organ.|

The amounts shown above relate to the employment of parish administrators, a caretaker and professional musicianss. The vicar and the assistant curate are paid by the Diocese of Rochester. 

## 6 **FIXED ASSETS FOR USE BY  THE PCC** 

## **Tangible Fixed Assets** 

The tangible fixed assets comprise the following properties which have been included in the accounts on the basis described in Note 1 and at an assessment of value carried out by the PCC.  This is considered to be a fair estimate of the current value of each of the properties, subject to existing leases.  Both properties were held throughout the year. 

These assets comprise the total of the Capital - Real Property designated fund shown on page 8.

99 Gillmans Road is treated as an investment property, although it is intended that it be available for use by an assistant priest.  The property was let at a commercial rate throughout the year.  The Old Church Hall is let at a commercial rate. 

## **Investment Assets** 

The income from the Cann Trust Fund is used for the maintenance of the churchyard.  The PCC has decided to invest the capital of the fund in the CBF Church of England Fixed Interest Fund.  In June 2021 the PCC decided to invest part of its unrestricted General Fund in the CBF Church of England Investment Fund

## **10 AUDITORS** 

Under the provisions of the Charities Act an audit of the accounts is not required. An Independent Examination of the accounts has been carried out, and it is expected that the Independent Examiner will request a charitable donation to be made in lieu of a fee. 

## **11 TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES** 

During the year the PCC paid travel and other expenses totalling £2,404 to the vicar _(2020 - £994 for a part year in office)_ who was an ex-officio member of the PCC. The PCC also paid the council tax and water charges and provided a business telephone line in the vicarage. 

Mr David House, an employee of the PCC as caretaker, is an elected member of the PCC.  He was elected to the PCC after his employment commenced.  During the year he received remuneration of £909 _(2020 - £541)_ for his role as caretaker. 

There were no other material transactions with related parties.
