These compliances fall into several categories. broadly under the title'Governance': Safeguarding Health and Safety Financial Employment Insurance Data Protection (UK GDPRI Licensing Charity Law Church Law Property Law Early in 2025. the PCC established a new Governance Committee. which oversees all of these complia nce issues and any audits that are required. In this way we can better manage risk and reduce ourvulnerability. whilst also protecting the health. safety and privacy of ourchurch members. ourcongregations and ourcommunity. In January 2025, the parish Sailed through the Archdeacon's Visitation which attempts to check compliance in some key areas. Then, during2025, the committeegradually worked away ateach aspectwhere we felt we maybe considered to fallshort on other legislation. We can now report that we are compliant in all the above areas. with the proviso that we would still like to do better on Data Protection, and Safeguarding is 8 continually moving target nationally. Particular thanks go to Sam Lord - Secreta ry to the committee. Diane Palfreym8n- He81th and Safetyofficer. Richard Buller- employment and contracts. Mike Benham- ITSupport, and Dick Fawn- Parish Safeguarding Officer. who stays calm in the face of a bewildering and rapidly changing list of Safeguarding compliance requirementsl Please bear with us as we try to find the least-hassle but legal way forward. Robert Smith- Chair of the Govemance Committee Electoral Roll The 2026 revision ofthe ElectoralRollhas been completed and the numbers are as follows: names on roll 167 representing 134 households This compares to 162 names (representing 130 households) in 2025 Tina H8yton FINANCIAL REVIEW Review of the Financial Statements 2025 Income. The Financialstatements fortheye8r ended 31 sl December 2025 are included at the end of this report. This shows that total receipts forthe yearwere £245.769 compared with £634.109 forthe previousyear. Much of the reduction in incomewas as a result of an insurance paymentof £354.722thathad been received in 2024. There were, however, reductions in both planned giving receipts (down to £88,213 from £98,167) and monies raised through fundraising and donations (down to £16.035 f rom £40,307). Expenditure. Totalexpenditure fortheyear was £249.8851£337,803 in 20241. As a result, we recorded a deficit (before taking into account movements of investments) of £4,116 Ivs a surplus of £296.306 in 20241. After losses on investments1£4,9781, the total deficit for the year was £9,094 Ivs a surplus of £299,093 in 20241- Funds. As a result, the total funds cairied forward amount to £1 .617M Ivs £1.626M in 20241 which is composed of £758k in fixed assets le.g. buildings, investments) and £859k in net current assets le,g. cash at bank. depositsl. There 18 approximately £712k now in the"Phase 2 fund" forthe All Saints annex project lof which £188k is restricted) and £1 Ok in a fund following a donation to help the rebuilding of the toilet block at P&J Church Hall. Summary of Flnanclal Posltlon. This le8ve$ 8pproxim8tely£137k ofcurrentasset funds for general use on the day-to-day operation of ihe parish. This equates to around six months typical expenditure for the parish. So. although the finances at first gla nce may appear healthy. the reserves for general use are a cause for concern, especially when we are forecasting a deficit of over £60k for 2026. Reductions in planned giving, fundraising and donations for general use, coupled with above inflation rises in key expenditure items, mean ourefforts mustfocus on bolstering ourgeneralfunds or, at the very least, arresting their depletion. Flnance News. 2025 saw a hiatus in ourbank airangements. Firstly, our main bank, CAF Bank, experienced ditticulties following a well-publicised upgrade disaster affecting their core systems in May. This meant we were without key banking facilities forweeks and problems were experienced once the service was restored. Furthermore, we were informed by ourotheT banking provider. Lloyds. thatthetype ofcurrent account that we had with them for manyyears land was used forbankingcheques and cashl was goingto bewithdrawn meaninEthatwehad to moveto a different type of account with higher fees and a new name to align with our charity commission registration. Coupled with the closure of the Fleet branch of Lloyds B8nk. this mea nt that the nearest point for bulk cash deposits is now Aldershot. Whilst the Treasurer and the PCC are comm itted to retaining cash as an option for payment for parishioners where necessary. they are grateful forthosewho have movedto onlineorcard payments sothat cash handling is kept to a minimum. The Treasurerthanks Elizabeth Wa Iler, Lynda Hix, Heather Turner and others who provide vital support in collecting and counting cash receipts. Cheques (which had reduced to single figures Lastyear anywayl are no longer accepted as these have to be taken to Reading orBasingstokefor banking. Thanks are also extended to Juliet Worthington and Richard Buller for their handling of payroll and pension systems respectively, and to D8vid Worthington and Jean Carrforthe processing of gift aid claims. It should be noted that the reporting requirements for charities, the Standard of Recommended Practice {SORPI, has undergone8 significant revision for2026 which will result in a change of fomiat for both the Annual Report and Financial Statements next year. Financial Risk Review. Notwithstanding the earlier comments regaiding the direction of travel of our general funds. the Treasurer does not consider that there are currently any significant financial exposures. Furthermore. our Independent Examiner reports that we have a "reasonable expectation of meeting all liabilities tor a period of 12 months from 1° April 2026,: It is considered good practice to retain suff icient cash reserves in the General Fund to cover at least three months of unrestricted expenditure. Our end-of-year position was in linewith this principle.

Revd Jane Jones Deanery Synod The first meeting during 2025 was a special Open Synod, held on 3rd February. to which Parishes were encouraged to send a wider Tepresentation, including their Churchwardens, to share progress on the Parish Needs Process. Bishop Pauland ourArchdeacon both attended and there were three discussion groups that covered progress on individual Parish planning to exchange thinking as to how planning at local level could be improved. Bishop Paultalked of his commitment to transforming churches and transforming lives. This has now been drilled down to three goals rather than twelve and the focus is on growing disciples. He also referred to the Racial Justice Covenant and sa id we are growing in diversityand thatwe all need to be reminded that we must reach outto our communities to bringthe love ofGod tothem. Wethen broke into groupsto start a discussion on the following= Children, Young Peoples and Families Growing communityengagement Growing discipleship. These subjects would then be discussed further at the next Meeting ofthe Deanery Synod in June. Bishop Paulcommented that ourDeanery Meeting openingthe review and discussion on the Parish Needs Process wasthe best one he had attended throughoutthe Diocese. The second meetingwas held atour Church. Ail Saints, on 23rd June and thefollowing items were included on the agenda: new members, including Linda Dart, werewelcomed Mark gave an update on our Parish and drew particuiarattention to thegrowth in our numbers andthe forthcoming Ordination ofjane as Prieston 28th June. The Parish had held a SHAPE course and are looking to recruit a Children's a nd Familyworker. It 1$ intended to progress Phase Two of the rebuilding of All Saints soon. The members were then split into ihree groups to discuss turthertheir Parish Needs Process under the following headings forwhich the findings extracted from the Synod meetings are as follows: Community Engagement Encouragements Communitywork has grown since last meeting including Foodbanks, etc. Alpha meetings have been held to support newcomers. There were lots of community events, but parishes struggled to get people to come along to services. It was noted that it is hard to convert people from attending events to becoming part ofthe church familyand manyhad Eapswith regardstoteenaEers. Children, Young People. and Families Encouragements Lots of growth and many are experiencing a quiet revival. Useful links have been with schools and some have run"Open the Book" sessions 8nd seen many children coming into Churches through these outreaches. Support is still needed to bring people back aftercovid. Young adults Encouragements 10 There has been considerable encouragementto getyoung people coming in and getting involved with various aspects of church life, such as helping with music. SHAPE courses have been positive. One Parish reported an Alph8 course had been well attended. Support is still needed to help young adults find their place and serve. This was followed bya discussion on ClergyiParish support in Governance & Wellbeing. This had been discussed at Chapter. dueto a growth in governance such as Safeguarding, the R8C181 Justice Covenant and the Clergy Wellbeing Coven8nt, all this has added pressureto time and ministry. George Newton, Vicar of HolyTrinity. Aldershot, talked of Some of his reflections on governance, keeping in mind that allthegovernance was important. The amount of goveinance now required can have a negative effect on clergy wellbeing. The safeguarding processes now in place are hard to manage for those that struggle with technology and adds stress and impact negatively on ministry. There was a discussion regarding possibilities of outsourcing DBS administration within the Deanery. and this concluded with Revd. Gemma Foster, Rural Dean, advisingthat this would need further discussion to formulate a proposal to go forward to the Diocesan Synod. The meeting scheduled forseptember 2025was not held. Dick Fawn.

Our scheduled maintenance on the ¢hur¢h and hall is managed through a P&J Maintenance spreadsheet and now the QI rectifications is also managed in this way, ensuring we do not miss anything. The most significant works undertaken were.. the refurbishment and re-treatment of the front Iroad-facingl pa rt of the church exterior cladding and the replacement of the hall hot-air heating system with a state-of- the-art air-conditioning system. which should be 3.5 times as eff icient due to the heat pumps installed on the flat roof above the vestries. Whilst the QI report expressed concern about certain aspects of the hall. a subsequent survey by a Chartered Structural Engineer has put our minds at rest- the hall still has considerable life left in it. Sowe can continue to implementgradual improvements to the hallto improve energy efliciency and refurbish the toilets. as well as planning to re-cover the hall roof in the next 10 yea rs, based on regular inspections. Significant improvements to the fire and evacuation procedures have been made as a result of various inspections and with the adviceof our Health an(J Safetyoff icer-Diane Palfreyman. towhom we arevery grateful.

It is my responsibility to: - examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act; - to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act; and - to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. ## **Basis of independent examiner’s statement** 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 the 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** In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements: ● to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting records of the Charities Act - 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 Name: Relevant professional qualification: Company: Date: Stuart Harris ACMA/CGMA Seebys Consultancy Ltd 24 March 2026 Page 2 ## **The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of All Saints Fleet** ## **Charity No. 1129190** **STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL ACTIVITIES** (incorporating an income and expenditure account) **For the year ended 31 December 2025** |**Incoming Resources**

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for the valuation of investment assets, which are shown at market value. General funds represent the funds of the PCC that are not subject to any restrictions regarding their use and are available for application to the general purposes of the PCC. Funds designated for a particular purpose by the PCC are also unrestricted. The accounts include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the PCC is responsible in law. They do not include the accounts for church groups that owe their main affiliation to another body, nor those that are informal gatherings of certain Church members ## **Going Concern** The PCC has a reasonable expectation of meeting all liabilities for a period 12 months from 1st April 2026 and therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025. ## **Incoming Resources** _Voluntary income and capital sources_ Collections and Gift Aid donations are recognised when received by or on behalf of the PCC. Income tax recoverable on Gift Aid donations is recognised when the donation is received. Grants and legacies to the PCC are accounted for as soon as the PCC is notified of its legal entitlement and the amount is due. Funds raised by social activities and the sale of books and magazines are accounted for gross. _Other ordinary income_ Income from the letting of the church premises is recognised when the rental is due. _Income from Investments_ Dividends are accounted for when received. Interest is accounted for on a receivable basis. _Gains and losses on investments_ Realised gains and losses are only recognised when investments are sold. Unrealised gains or losses are accounted for on revaluation at 31 December. ## **Resources Used** _Grants_ Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over or when awarded, if that award creates a binding obligation on the PCC. _Activities directly relating to the work of the Church_ The Parish Share is accounted for when payable. Any unpaid share at 31 December is provided for in these accounts as an operational (though not legal) liability and is shown as a creditor in the Balance Sheet. ## **Fixed Assets** _Consecrated land and buildings and movable church furnishings_ Consecrated and beneficial property is excluded from the accounts by s.96(2)(a) of the Charities Act 1993 except for Ss Philip and James Church. No value is placed upon 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 year on consecrated or benefice buildings and movable church furnishings, whether maintenance or improvement, is written off as expenditure in the Statement of Financial Activities. ## _Other fixtures, fittings and office equipment._ Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight line basis over four years (except for the Churches' boilers which are depreciated over 10 years). Following a review a decision was taken with effect from the 2020 accounts to write off the value of individual items with a purchase price under £5,000 at the time the asset is acquired. Individual items of equipment with a purchase price in excess of £5,000 continue to be written off over a 4 year period. Full year depreciation is charged in year of acquisition. ## _Tangible Fixed Assets_ The Fleet Parish Community Centre is valued at cost and will be depreciated over 40 years. Ss Philip and James Church and Hall is valued at market value as at 31 December 2000. Ss Philip and James Church Extension is included at cost and as it is an operational asset and forms part of the fabric of the Church, it will not be depreciated. ## _Current Assets_ Amounts owing to the PCC at 31 December in respect of fees, rents and other income are shown as debtors, less provision for amounts that may prove uncollectable. Short term deposits comprise cash held on deposit with the following banks: Lloyds Bank, CAF Bank and Saffron Walden Building Society. ## **Roundings** Figures presented in the financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound and therefore totals may not tie precisely.

The Church and hall are used for ministry, outreach and as a source of income. The All Saints Building Fund relates to donations made following the fire which destroyed much of the Church on 22nd June 2015. The All Saints Consequential & Direct Loss Fund is a designated fund, set up from the consequential loss and contents claims as a result of the fire and a legacy received in 2019 which the PCC also designated and is for the purposes of the restoration of All Saints Church. The final insurance settlement was received in September 2025. The "Phase 2 fund" at 31st December 2025 stands at **£711,574** (£523,173 Designated Fund + £188,401 Restricted AS Fund). A donation of £10,000 received in October 2024 is restricted for use at P&J Church & Hall. This amount has been moved from the General Fund to a new P&J Fabric Fund ## **11.
