Aims and Purposes.
The object of the Parochial Church Council is the promotion of the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to the doctrines and practices of the Church of England. The PCC co-operates with the minister in promoting in the parish the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social, and ecumenical. The Parochial Church Council supported the following charities in 2022: Helping Hands in the Vale, The Royal British Legion and Water Aid.
Structure, Governance and Management.
The Parochial Church Council is a corporate body established by the Church of England. The PCC operates under the Parochial Church Council Powers Measure. The PCC is a Registered Charity.
The method of appointment of PCC members is governed by and 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 members are responsible, as Trustees, for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance to the parish, including deciding on how the funds of the PCC are to be spent.
The PCC has reviewed the polices on: Health & Safety; Safeguarding and have completed the parish Safeguarding Toolkit as required by the Diocese; Graveyard; Conflict/Declaration of Interest; Reserves; Risk; Data Protection; Complaints.
The Parochial Church Council 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.)
Annual reviews are carried out for our Lay Readers and Authorized Lay Ministers. Pay reviews are undertaken for the organist, the office administrator and the people who maintain the graveyard and churchyard.
The PCC meets on a regular basis and the standing committee has the power to transact the business of the PCC between PCC meetings subject to directions given by the PCC.
Objects and Activities
The 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.
The main objectives for 2022 were to increase income by fundraising; increase presence in the community; encourage use of the church building for community events. Building on our community work which was started during the Covid-19 pandemic, we have continued to help our community by being a Christian and prayerful presence with the development of the foodbank.
Achievements and Performance
There was a Zoom Evening Prayer each Sunday at 6.00 p.m. and funding has been received to allow this to continue for another year.
Visits to Brompton House, home communion, pastoral visits, visits to the school, coffee club at No.32 and Tea at 3 were able to restart in 2022.
All Souls and the Tree of Light was a combined service in November on the Village Green by the Tree of Light. People were invited to bring along a memory bauble, as last year.
The Vicar’s & Churchwardens’ fund, set up in 2016, has been used to provide help for the poor, homeless and needy individuals in the village and provide food bank parcels at Christmas. This fund also helped
2
families in need throughout the year.
The Friends of St Eadburgha’s have continued to support the parish with funds for the maintenance of St Eadburgha’s Church and all their support is greatly appreciated.
On Christmas Eve we held a Carol Service on the Green – which was well attended and appreciated. Midnight Communion was held at St Michael’s on Christmas Eve and Communion on Christmas Day.
Review of the Year
The PCC met 7 times during the year and dealt with various matters. One meeting took place via Zoom as Revd Ward had COVID-19. The meeting scheduled for September was postponed as it was not quorate.

Deanery Synod
During the year, the Synod met and discussed varied topics and reports were submitted to the PCC.
Financial Review
Total income of ordinary unrestricted funds was £62,909 as detailed in the financial statements. Total expenditure of ordinary unrestricted funds was £70,700. £20,000 contribution was made towards the 2022 Parish Share.
The net result for the year was an excess of expenditure over income of £7,791 on unrestricted funds.
Reserves Policy
It is PCC policy to try to maintain a balance on free reserves (net current assets) which equates to at least three months’ unrestricted payments. This is equivalent to £20,000. It is held to smooth out fluctuations in cash flow and to meet emergencies. The balance of the free reserves at the end of the year was £4703 which is lower than this target.
The balance of restricted funds at the end of the year was £11,338 and is comprised of the Parish Building Fund. This is used to fund the upkeep of St Michael & All Angels’ Church fabric and St Eadburgha’s fabric.
Where income permits it is PCC policy to transfer funds into the Parish Building Fund, the Heating Fund, the Organ Fund, and the Mission Fund. In the past year this has not been possible as there have been no surplus funds.
It is our policy to invest funds with the CCLA Church of England Deposit Fund. There are no funds currently invested.
The PCC has proposed to set aside sufficient funds, income permitting, to build up a more adequate amount of reserves in all funds through a Stewardship Campaign and fundraising events. It will also make every effort to pay the Parish Share in full.
Risk Management
The PCC receives Regular Financial updates from the Treasurer. Income increased slightly but not up to pre-pandemic levels.
Interest rates on the savings account have increased which has helped increase the restricted funds.
The PCC is aware of the necessity to increase income and plans to hold a stewardship campaign in 2023.
The PCC considered the regulations regarding data protection – the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) which came into force on 25[th] May 2018. Contact preferences have been recorded, secure storage has been purchased and a GDPR Policy is now in place.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2022
1 Accounting policies
Statement of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared under the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 in accordance with 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) (effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
Basis of preparation
Broadway Parochial Church Council meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The financial statements 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 affiliation to another body, nor those that are informal gatherings of church members.
Going concern
The trustee consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
Income and endowments
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 accounted for when the PCC is legally entitled to the use of the resources, their ultimate receipt is considered reasonably certain and the amounts due are readily quantifiable. All other income is recognised when it is receivable. All incoming resources are accounted for gross.
Expenditure
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 funds. All other expenditure is generally recognised when it is incurred and is accounted for gross.
Taxation
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2022 (continued)
Tangible fixed assets
Individual fixed assets costing £500.00 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
Consecrated and benefice property is not included in the accounts in accordance with s10(2)(a) and (c) of the Charities Act 2011.
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). For anything acquired prior to 2004, there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such assets are not valued in the financial statements. All such expenditure has been written off when incurred.
Depreciation and amortisation
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:
Asset class Depreciation method and rate Furniture and equipment 10% reducing balance Office equipment 25% straight line
Fund structure
Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustee discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.
Restricted funds represent (a) income from endowments which may be expended only on restricted purposes intended by the donor, and (b) revenue donations or grants for a specific PCC activity intended by the donor. Where these funds have unspent balances, interest on their pooled investments is apportioned to the individual funds on an average balance basis.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2022
1 Accounting policies
Statement of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared under the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 in accordance with 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) (effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
Basis of preparation
Broadway Parochial Church Council meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The financial statements 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 affiliation to another body, nor those that are informal gatherings of church members.
Going concern
The trustee consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
Income and endowments
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 accounted for when the PCC is legally entitled to the use of the resources, their ultimate receipt is considered reasonably certain and the amounts due are readily quantifiable. All other income is recognised when it is receivable. All incoming resources are accounted for gross.
Expenditure
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 funds. All other expenditure is generally recognised when it is incurred and is accounted for gross.
Taxation
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2022 (continued)
Tangible fixed assets
Individual fixed assets costing £500.00 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
Consecrated and benefice property is not included in the accounts in accordance with s10(2)(a) and (c) of the Charities Act 2011.
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). For anything acquired prior to 2004, there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such assets are not valued in the financial statements. All such expenditure has been written off when incurred.
Depreciation and amortisation
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:
Asset class Depreciation method and rate Furniture and equipment 10% reducing balance Office equipment 25% straight line
Fund structure
Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustee discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.
Restricted funds represent (a) income from endowments which may be expended only on restricted purposes intended by the donor, and (b) revenue donations or grants for a specific PCC activity intended by the donor. Where these funds have unspent balances, interest on their pooled investments is apportioned to the individual funds on an average balance basis.
