The church accounts are now held on an online platform provided by Xero, and the various documents we use are held on Microsoft Teams. This enables multiple people, including the treasurer and two assistant treasurers, to have access to the accounts with varying levels of authority/access. This year's biggest expenditure after our share payment to the diocese. were the cost5 of heating and lightin& and the repairs to the church roof. The PCC has worked with urgency to flnd a more cost-effective heating solution, butthe PCC agreed to postpone a decision while new technologies are developed and installed elsewhere so we will be in a better position to revlew the right solution for our church. The Benefactors fund benefited in 2022 by an extremely generous legacy from the late Johanna Raffan MBE. Revd. Sally and the PCC agreed that glven Johanna's lifelong commitment to childreri's education, a major spend from this legacy would be a part-time 'Children and Families Leadel for a fixed term of 3 years {approx. cost of £45.000). Samantha Fiordellsl has been with us since September 2023 and her salary and tralning has been funded from this legacy. We have also used some money from this fund for the Alpha Course and refreshments, and we plan to Use some of this legacy to Improve the lighting In the church. Investigatlons contlnue about installing more efficient lighting. These works along with the £14,050 earmarked for Chapel improvements and the potential replaclng of our church heatln8 Svstem, mean we wlll not be short of project work over the coming years. These are excitin8 opportunities to 8row our church and further develop our Outreach in Maidenhead and beyond. However, a serious concern is our levels of 8iving. Several members of our congregation who were generous giver5. have di@d during 2024. 2nd others havo or will soon move away from the area. This means our 8iving levels have fallen and not been met by new giver5. Increasing levels of glvinE must be a priority for the incoming PCC.

Reserves Policy The PCC'S current policy on holding reserves are as follows: . Restricted Funds The PCC Is advised on an annual basis of significant unspent balances in these funds where It is apparent that plans are not in hand to spend the money within a reasonable time. Unrestricted & Designoted Funds Benefactors, Fund: li.e., accumulated legacies for the general purposes of the PCC}. Our pollcy is that the money should normally only be Spent on the capital cost of items, or on repairs/restoration work that would not normally be required more than once every ten years. Alternatlvely, it can be used to fund 5UPPOrt for church personnel development. Hence the reserve level wlll vary and there is no target level. In 2010 the PCC decided that the dividend income from the part of this fund held as CBF Investment Fund shares should be treated as General Fund income. Johanna's legacy is reported on separately withln the benefactors fund was spent on the children and familie5 leader, and Alpha course costs. Fabrlc Reserve Fund: The pollcyls to hold reseNes of between £210,000 and £300.000, so that.. The income from the investment is sufficient to cover the cost of day-to-day malntenance of the building's fabric {dividend income from the Fabrlc Reserve CBF shares account will continue to be pald into the Fabrlc Fund) and To allow us, If necessary, to fund major building repair projects without needing to immediately raise funds to do so. The remalninE reserves li.e., all excluding the Benefactors, and Fabric Reserve funds) should be sufficient to fund three months of ordinary expendlture.
