Many of our membefs are involved in active Sefvice of the wider CL*mmunity', as school governors, through Chillern Foodbank and Chri$lian$ against Povety, in our Pastoral Care teams working with the elderly, vulnerable and housebound. What could have been better in 2025 We were sadly not able lo move loard wrth the appointment of a new Children's Minister for Sl Mary's which placed extra pressure on the existing staff and volunteer team.

The Statement of Financial Activities for 2025 shows a deficti of £103k12024'. deficit of £52kl with the variance due primarily to unfavourable movements in the performance of investments. Income We must pralse the Lord for the Chrfst-centred generoslty of the members of ourchurches. The PCC raises rts income in a number of ways. The m05t important 15 to encourage church members lo see financial support of their local church as an important and sacrrficial part of their ovefall Christian discipleship. These voluntary donations from parishioners account for £836k. 890/0 of all income 12024.. £887k, 920/0 of all income). Our congregations benefit from the lalenls of the members of the staff team, who are resourcing the parish subslanlially, which is a great encouragement to church members lo give lo maintain the mission of the churches. Overall income is less than the prior year due to a decrease in donations which is partially offset by an in¢ase in fee income and legacies. Our heartfelt thanks go to all the donors in all the churches.
Great Chesham PCC- Annual Report and Financial Statements- Year ended 31 December 2025 Expenditure Total expenditure in 2025 was £30k less than 2024. This was primarily due lo a £67k reduction in grants due lo timing and one off grfts in the prior year which more than offset Ihe £37k increase in the costs associated with the work of the church l¢)cally. The increase in the local costs was primarily due lo an increase in repair costs on staff housing, rent for a full 12 months of the curates house and increase in staff numbers. We are thankful to be In a position to be able to meet thi$ expenditure to facilitate our mlsslon. Reserves policy The PCC has unreslricled réserves of £998k 12024.. £1,121kl in the general fund and sundry designated funds which represents fourteen months of lolal 2025 unre51ricled expenditure 12024.. sixteen monlhsl. This is more than the six months of reserves jtsdged by the PCC to be needed lo ensure that all the churches in the Parish team can be financially supported. As a result there is a deficil budget for 2026 and discussions are ongoing about how best lo use these extra reserves. There are festricled reserves of £341 k 12024.. £341 kl. designated funds of £1,243k 12024., £1,21 gkl relating lo tangible fixed assets and other designaled funds of £402k12024.. £502kl, see note 11 for details of them. The lèvel of reserves held by the PCC and the Indlvldual churches Is a blesslng whlch enables confldent plannlng by the PCC of work to further the Lord's klngdom In to the future. Investment policy and performance Money not needed in the immediate fulure is generally kept in high interest bank accounts. fixed term deposits and slo¢k$ and shares. These are primarily held in CCLA in order lo earn as compelilive a return a5 possible. The PCC holds a number of inve$lmenls in stocks and shares. originally donated by parishioners. The PCC has also invested in the C8F Church of England Funds. which invests in ethically sound funds. Al the end of 2025, these investments overall showed a loss in the year of £25,11012024.' gain of £29,034). This decrease in value of s.89 is significantly worse than the FT Al Share Index. which showed an increase of 19.80/0 compared lo 2024 due lo shares in Relx performing particularly poorfy Ihis year.11 is nol currently anticipated that the capital value of these inveslmenl$ will be needed in the immediate future. and so these investments will be left in place al the current lime, in the anlicipalion that they will gain in value over the medium term. The PCC has made no social inveslmenls. Grants 11 is the policy of the PCC that al least 10°/• of unrestrieled monies received is given lo mlssion andlor charitable causes.
