the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that
period. In preparing those financial statements the Trustees are required to..
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently,
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP,
makejudgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent,
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any
material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements, and
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to
presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with
reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure
that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and
Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the Parochial Church Council Measure {19561

day training event, engage with experienced PCC members during the first year, and are invited
to join PCC committees thus connecting their skills to the work of the PCC.
PUBLIC BENEFIT
The Trustees have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit, and
particularly the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion, when reviewing
the Trust's aims and objectives and in planning future activities and setting the grant making
policy for the year. The activities of the church in the pursuit of its aim include Sunday services,

risk area, the associated risk ratings, and the control actions needed to reduce the risks to an
acceptable level. Each risk area has an owner, often the PCC itself, that has the responsibility to
review regularly the control actions to ensure risks are effectively managed. The risks with the
highest ratings are shown below, with their associated control actions.

PCC REVIEW OFTHE YEAR
Alms Objectives & Activities
Our Vision is to see every life transformed. Through Jesus. For God's glory. This means a church
where, by God's grace, we are reaching, growing, and resourcing..
Reaching...our communities with the gospel.
Growing. .disciples to maturity.
Resourcing...the kingdom beyond our postcodes (regionally. nationally and globally).
To realise this vision, we are building our ministry around our S Biblical purposes, each of which
flows out of the gospel message- Jesus 15 Christ the Lord.
Magnification: rejoicing in God with all our hearts and all of our lives.
Mission: living to see God's kingdom grow as more people are saved.
Membership: welcoming people into a family that cares for each other.
Maturity: growing in the likeness of Christ through the gospel and by his Spirit.
Ministry: serving God with the gifts his Spirit has given us.
We are meeting, as a church, as three congregations in Gerrards Cross and Fulmer. In Gerrards
Cross.. The 10.'00, and The 5.'30. In Fulmer.. The 10'.00.
Each of our 5 Biblical purposes is underpinned by prayer, because 'unless the LORD builds the
house, its builders labour in vain., (Psalm 127-1 }. With that in mind, we have continued to meet
monthly, as a church family, to pray for the needs of our world and our church as well as
hearing updates from our mission partners. It has been encouraging to see people come
together from across our three congregations in prayer and fellowship and we have continued
with Zoom as a means of digital attendance for some who would not otherwise be able to
attend.
Encouragingly, we have seen signs of spiritual growth right across our church family, as people
have responded to the teaching of God's word and the work of the Holy Spirit in their lives.
Explore groups and other evangelistic initiatives have continued, enabling enquirers to find
out more about the claims of Jesus. Our Connect course has seen new joiners welcomed and
cared for as they've arrived, with encouraging numbers committing to Saint James as
members. Growth Groups have continued to meet, to study God's word, and to care for and
encourage one another in the messiness of life. We are thankful for growth in our youth and
children's work and, for many families, those small but growing communities are a key source
of spiritual encouragement for our young people and their parents.
Numerically, we are thankful for continued growth in our evening congregation in Gerrards
Cross. We have an encouraging numberofguests and newcomerswith us week-by-week (both

morning and evening in Gerrards Crossl and it is exciting to See many showing interest in our
Explore ministry for those wanting to investigate or re-visit the essentials of the Christian faith.
On the Ministry Team, in February we said farewell to Alicia Morrow, our Ministry Trainee, as
she returned home to Adelaide, to begin her undergraduate studies. It was a joy to play a part
in her growth and development and we thank God for her enthusiasm and faithful service
amongst us across a range of ministries. Meanwhile, in September, we welcomed Peter Ackroyd
to the team, as an Associate Pastor. Peter is leading our Maturity work as well as overseeing The
10.'OO congregation in Gerrards Cross. He and Jojo are already proving to be a great addition to
the staff team. In the Operations Team, we said goodbye to Rachel Pearce and gave thanks for
her contribution to the smooth running of various ministries and we welcomed Jennie Marks -
a member of The10'.00 congregation in Gerrards Cross- as her replacement. We are delighted
to have Jennie on board.
Whilst we are thankful for God's provision, we remain passionate about the 'every member
ministry, championed by the Apostle Paul in Ephesians 4'.11-16. A healthy church is one in
which all God's people are serving together. With that in mind, it has been hugely encouraging
to see so many people involved in gospel ministry and contributing to the life of our church
in different ways. The body of Christ has been built up, as a result.
As always, our Vision Dinners were a great occasion. The Saint James Centre was brimming
with energy as we launched the academic year from Colossians 1.28, to think about "Growing
disciples...
and our aim to see "everyone fully mature in Christ., We finished the calendar year
focused on mission with a packed Christmas prograrnme and a feast of music, with numbers
of guests up yet again (and significantly) on the previous year - and a tangible sense of
increased of evangelistic energy across the church family.
We are grateful, as ever, to the Operations Team and others in the church family who do so
much to enable us all to stay in touch with what is going on. In an increasingly digital world,
we are aware that there is more to do to enable better communication, but we are continuing
to make progress as we upgrade our processes and systems and adapt to new technologies.
As a church we are continuing to engage with the pastoral and political implications of the
Church of England'5 Living in Love and Faith {LLFI initiative, and the introduction of Prayers of
Love and Faith. We are grateful that the House of Bishops has agreed that due process must
be followed. However, whilst LLF is now officially 'cSosed' we are deeply saddened and very
concerned by the apparent continued direction of travel and the PCC remains committed to
construrtive and prayerful engagement on these issues. We are grateful for the support of the
Church of England Evangelical Council ICEECI and its concern to uphold the authority of
Scripture in the Church of England, as we strive to remain faithful to the gospel.
Through CEEC our clergy and PCC now have in place 'Alternative Spiritual Oversight, from Revd
Canon Vaughan Roberts and we are very grateful for his support. This oversight is informal
and temporary, and does not replace our legal accountability to our bishops and safeguarding
officers.
We will report fully on progress across our 5 Biblical purposes- our different congregations and
in our Youth & Children's work, at the end of the academic year. Prayer Central in July will be
given over to prayer & thanksgiving as we look back on 2025-26 and celebrate what God has
been doing amongst us.

In all the above, l am thankful to God for the faithful and sacrificial service of our
Churchwardens, Clergy, Staff and PCC over the past year- and of course the commitment to
the gospel shown by so many in our church family. We have so much to be thankful for- and
we know that it is "only God who makes things grow." 11 Corinthians 3.'7).
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Basis of presentation
The accounts show income and expenditure on both Restricted and Unrestricted Funds. The
Unrestricted Funds are further split between the General Fund and various Designated Funds.
The Financial Review focuses mainly on the General Fund unless othenmise indicated. This is
shown in the column headed "Unrestricted Funds" on page 12.
Overview of 2025 General Fund
We stsrted the year with a PCC approved budget deficit of £189,339 and as a result of God's
provision and committed giving from the church family we have significantly closed this
funding gap reporting a headline deficit of £33,144 (after fund transfers). However, this figure
includes the funding of a one-off project to install solar panels to the roof of the St James
Centre at a cost of £26,500. The true underlying operating deficit is hence only £6,644.
The total income figure of £978,433 was 10% up on the 2024 equivalent income of £887,147.
However, excluding "one-off" type income, such as legacies, the adjusted underlying income
was down 2Yo to £864,572. Voluntary income, being the income received directly from the
members of the church family, at £919,048, was up 12% on the 2024 fi9ure of £807,376. This
increase was primarily due to "one off" type income mentioned previously, however, the
regular stsnding order giving was up 2Yo to £344,792 (2024.. £336,678).
The General Fund was impacted by the reductions in the interest rates seen regularly during
2025 on the cash deposits, with £20,725 being received as opposed to the £32,851 received in
2024.
Total expenditure for the year at £975,563 was 13¥0 higher than 2024 (£864,169). This was
primarily due to high levels of spend on infrastructure projects such as the repair to the roof
of the St James Centre,. a new fire alarm system and brickwork repairs at the Gerrards Cross
Church building and the wall repair at the Fulmer church building (the latter being covered by
insurance). The majority of this spend was covered by transfers in from the appropriate
designated funds. Offsetting this additional spend was the reduction in the amount of Parish
Share paid to the Diocese, which fell from £183,800 in 2024 to £124,164 in 2025. The reduction,
year on year, starting in October 2024, was due to the full year impact of the PCC'S decision to
withhold funds from the Diocese. The balance of what the Diocese expected to be paid
1£86,6181 continued to be transferred into the Contending for the Faith I"CFTF"l Designated
Fund which will be used to support gospel centred ministries. The "core. 2025 expenditure of
running all our ministries and other activities (excluding the previously mentioned
infrastructure repairs, changes in Parish Share paid to the Diocese, plus the outside giving and
governance costs) at £645,689 was up 7Vo from the equivalent £602,639 in 2024. The full year
impact of the two staff posts added during 2024 (the Associate Pastor for Women and
Membership Lead) represented over half of this increase. Both these posts continue to be

supported through the release of Church Growth funds, shown in the transfer between the
funds line (see below for further details) resulting in a net zero impact on the General Fund.
Underlying cost increases were seen in such areas as utility bills and legal costs (relating to
advising the PCC on building a strong working relationship with the Two St James Trust).
In 2025 the grants to organisations outside the church {allocated by the Global Mission Team)
totalled £72,650 up 4% on 2024, reflecting the higher level in church family giving during the
12 months to 30 September of the previous year which forms the basis of the l 0% givir)g
calculation.
During 2025, there was a net transfer of £36,012 out of the General Fund to the various
designated funds a5 shown in Note 11. This included a net transfer of £107,917 from the
legacies received into the Church Growth Fund to support the work of the Two St James Trust
in their purchase of a property for supporting future ministry in Gerrards Cross and Fulmer.
Designated Funds
The key, non propety related, designated fund is the Church Growth Fund. In addition to the
legacy-related transfer in mentioned above, £80,818 was utilized to offset the additional staff
post-related costs previously mentioned. During the year, £86,618 was transferred to the
CFTF Designated Fund from the General Fund relating to the Parish Share withheld from the
Diocese. The two maintenance related funds released a total of £128,508 to cover the cost of
the major infrastructure projects relating to the Centre and both churches. These funds
received £55,500 in from the General Fund, £26,500 of which is related to the solar panels.
Restricted Funds
In addition to generous unrestricted donations, progressing our wider mission as a church
would not be possible without the donation of funds that are restricted for specific purposes.
The largest restricted fund supports the work of Nat Schluter (Principal of the Johannesburg
Bible College and St James Mission Envoy). During 2025, a further £91,041 was raised with
£96,817 being spent on support, leaving a closing balance of £40,759. At the start of 2025 the
Refugee Fund, created primarily to support displaced people as a result of the war in Ukraine,
was merged into the Relief Fund. These two funds combined started the year with a balance
£16,856 and made net distributions of £6,171 leaving a closing balance of £10,685.
Reserves
There are PCC approved policies in place to control the level of resources held within each of
the major Unrestricted Funds. These policies are designed to ensure that the "target" balance
covers the estimated future potential expenditure. The levels of financial resources deemed
necessary for each of these funds, together with the current measurement against each target
are as follows..

No target has been set for the Church Growth fund. The PCC has now agreed that this
fund can be spent on mission focused activities in the short to medium term.
Fundraising
During 2025, except for the activities mentioned within the Restricted Funds section, no
significant fundraising activities were carried out.
Plans for 2026
The ongoing activities described in the PCC Review will be continued and, in some cases,
expanded, without material impact on our reseNes.
CONCLUSION
We give thanks to God for all that He has done through this, His church. in 2025. It is only by
His grace that we continue to do what we do each year. We praise Him for the way He has
guided, enabled and shaped us. We look forward. with eager anticipation, to the year ahead,
trusting that disciples will be added to our number, and all of us will be changed, to be more
like Jesus, through our relationship with Him.
Our ministry is sustained and delivered by a huge number of people in the church family using
their God-given gifts to serve in the gospel ministry in which we all share. We are so grateful
to God for all who have served in different ways. Particular thanks go to the Churchwardens.
PCC and those serving in leadership at Saint James, for their faithfulness to the gospel, their
hard work and their prayerful support.
We also don't take for granted the generosity of all those who gave financially during the year
to enable the ministry here and we thank God for his wonderful provision through the church
family, through regular planned giving, and through one-off gifts.
As we look around Saint James, we see evidence of lives transformed and glimpses of God's
Kingdom here on earth. Time and again, we stand back, assess what we see in the church, and
exclaim 'only God could have done this,. Only the wonderful God of our Lord Jesus Christ, who
brings life out of death, offers a welcome to sinners, and gives us his Holy Spirit, could be the
source and sustainer of all we are. All the glory belongs to him.

LEGACY INCOME
During 2025, legacies of £1 13,861.17 were received {2024= £10,600).
STAFF PENSIONS
The PCC participates in the Pension Builder Scheme section of CWPF for lay staff. CWPF is administered
by the Church of England Pensions Board, which holds the CWPF assets separately from those of the
Employer and other participating employers.
CWPF has two sections..
1. the Defined Benefits Scheme
2. the Pension Builder Scheme, which has two subsections,.
a deferred annuity section known as Pension Builder Classic, and,
a cash balance section known as Pension Builder 2014.
Pension Builder Scheme
Both sections of the Pension Builder Scheme are classed as defined benefit schemes.
Pension Builder Class4c provides a pension, accumulated from contributions paid and converted into
a deferred annuity during employment based on terms set and reviewed by the Church of England
Pensions Board from time to time. Discretionary increases may also be added, depending on investment
returns and other factors.
Pension Builder 2014 is a cash balance scheme that provides a lump sum which members use to
provide benefits at retirement. Pension contributions are recorded in an account for each member.

Discretionary bonuses may be added before retirement, depending on investment returns and other
factors. The account, plus any bonuses declared is payable, unreduced, from age 65.
There is no sub-division of assets be￿een employers in each section of the Pension Builder Scheme.
The scheme is considered to be a multi-employer scheme as described in Section 28 of FRS 102. This is
because it is not possible to attribute the Pension Builder Scheme's assets and liabilities to specific
employers and means that contributions are accounted for as if the Scheme were a defined contribution
scheme. The pensions costs charged to the SOFA in the year are the contributions payable {2025'.
£36,525.15, 2024.. £28,401.67).
A valuation of the Pension Builder Scheme is carried out once every three years. The most recent
valuation was carried out as at 31 December 2022.
For the Pension Builder Classic section, the valuation revealed a surplus of £34.8m on the ongoing
assumptions used. At the most recent annual review effective 1 January 2026, the Board chose to grant
a discretionary bonus of 10% to both pensions not yet in payment and pensions in payment in respect
of service prior to April 1997,. and a bonus on pensions in payment in respect of post April 1997 service
so that the pension increase was also 1 Oyo (where usually it would be calculated based on inflation up
to an annual cap of 5% for pensions in payment in respect of service prior to April 2006 and 2.5Yo for
pensions in payment in respect of service post April 2006). This followed improvements in the fundir)g
position over 2025. There is no requirement for deficit payments at the current time.
For the Pension Builder 2014 section, the valuation revealed a surplus of £8.5m on the ongoing
assumptions used. There is no requirement for deficit payments at the current time.
The Church of England Pensions Board has agreed that some employers could use assets in the DBS of
the CWPF in lieu of contributions to Pension Builder Classic and/or Pension Builder 2014. You will see
this information on your DBS statement which will be sent separately.
The next valuation is being carried out as at 31 December 2025. The legal structure of the scheme is
such that if another employer fails, the PCC could become responsible for paying a share of the failed
employer's pension liabilities.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under the Charities Act 2011 and reptsrt in accordance with the Act and ￿levant reguiqlions
made or having an effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole a￿ free fr(>m material
misslalement. vthether due lo fraud or error. and lo issue an audito¢s ￿port that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is
a high ltrvel of assurance. but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS IUKI will athays detect 8
mat8rial rnisstatement when rt exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if. individudly or
in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the ectsnomic deasions of users taken on the basis of these
financial ststements.
Extent to whlch the audlt was eonsldèr•d eapabl¢ of d*ts¢ting irregularitie¥. including fraud
The extent to which our prtscedures are capable of detecting irregularities. inclijding fraud is detailed below..
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-complia￿ with laws and r6gulation$. We identffiéd and assessed the risks
of material misstatement of the financial statements from irregularities, whether due to fiaud or error, 2nd discussed these
be￿een our audit team rnembers. We then designed and performed audit procedures responsive to those risks. including
obtaining audit evidence sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our o￿n￿Sn.
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks within which the charity operates, fccusing on those laws
and regulations that have a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
The18ws and regulation5 we considered in this context were the Charits'es Act 2011 logetherwith the Charits'es SORP IFRS1021.
We assessed the required compli8nce with these laws and regulations as part of our audit procedures on the related financrdl
statements items.
In addition, we considered provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have a di¥ect effect on the financial statements
but compliance with which might be fijndamental to the charity's ability to operate or lo avoid 8 material penalty. We also
considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the charity lor fraud. The law5 and regulations we considered
in this context were General Data Protection Regulations, Health and Safèty and TaKalion legislation.
Auditing standards limit the required audit procedures to Klentify non-compliance with these laws and regulations lo enquiry of
the tru51ees and other rnanagemenl and inspection ol regulatory and legal correspondence. if any.
We identified the greatest risk of rnaterial impact on the finanaal statements from irregularit'es, including fraud to be wrthin th8
recognition of income and the override of controls by management. Our audit procedures to respond lo these risks included
enquiries of management about their own identification and assessrnent of the risks ol irregularities, sample testing the posting

Because ol the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregulafib"es, including th¢)se leading to
a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance wrth regulation. This risk increases the more that
compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as w8
will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irwularits.es occurring
due to fraud rather than error. as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery. collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
