## Annual report 

During 2024 both All Hallows and All Saints Churches have had another active year.  At All Saints the Church Hall has continued to be unavailable which has impacted on activities due to lack of facilities and suitable space.   Our Insurers have been working hard to get this resolved and there has at last been positive developments, with the first phase of repairs beginning early in 2025.  During the year All Saints have held two open church events which have been well supported by the community.  The first was for St George’s Day and the second a Harvest of Hands event celebrating local crafts. 

At All Hallows the Summer and Autumn Fairs were well received.  In addition, the Mothers’ Union and friends produced a spectacular cascade of poppies display outside All Hallows church which was used to launch the town Poppy Appeal.  This group continue to meet for Knit and Natter sessions monthly. 

Our work with young people through the Benefice pre-school group, Little Acorns as well as All Saints Sunday Young Eager Saints group is flourishing.  Both church choirs have had several junior members enrol during 2024.  Our work with All Saints School continues and this year they achieved a ‘excellent’ rating in the SIAMS inspection – a cause for celebration.  All Hallows Coffee Shop is open 4 mornings a week providing refreshment and fellowship.  All Hallows Hall is breaking even again with an increase in bookings and careful management by the caretaking/cleaning team.   The older members of All Saints congregation enjoy a monthly Tea@2 meeting at St Andrew’s Church Hall. 

The All Hallows Organ Restoration Project is progressing well with over £22,000 raised so far and lottery and grant bids in progress.  At All Saints the PCC are exploring the possibility of reordering the church to provide the flexibility we need to expand our outreach.   We also plan to launch Messy Church at All Saints in the summer of 2025. 

Finances in both parishes remain a challenge with ever-increasing energy bills and the challenge of paying our Parish Share, but we continue to work hard in challenging circumstances to meet our running costs as well as investing in mission.    This work has been boosted this year with a substantial legacy receipt for building outreach projects at All Hallows. 

We look forward to 2025 with hope. 

The Reverend Canon Paula York

This is the only committee required by law.  It has power to transact the business of the PCC between its meetings subject to any direction given by the council. 

## **Development committee** 

This committee's remit is to form a vision for the future of the church.  It is focusing on looking at ways to make our building space more flexible for worship and other events. 

## **Finance committee** 

This committee meets to discuss the finances of the church and assist the Treasurer. 

## **Hall committee** 

The Hall committee attends to matters relating to the Church Hall and assists the Hall Booking Clerk. 

## **Liturgy and Worship committee** 

This committee attends to matters relating to ministry within the church, including forms of worship. 

## **Maintenance committee** 

This committee attends to matters relating to the stewardship of plant such as church buildings and fabric, the churchyard and garden, the Vicarage and 3 Lister Road, formerly occupied by a curate. 

## **Ministry team** 

The team attends to matters relating to the pastoral needs of the congregation and the local community particularly when individuals are in need of care and support.  This might be offered through prayer, visiting or in practical ways.

**1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 together with applicable accounting standards and the Charities SORP (FRS 102). 

## **Funds** 

General funds represent the funds of the PCC that are not subject to any restrictions regarding their use and are available for application on 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 of church groups that owe their main affiliation to another body nor those that are informal gatherings of church members. 

## **Incoming resources** 

## **Voluntary income and capital sources** 

Collections are recognised when received by or on behalf of the PCC. Planned giving receivable under covenant is recognised only when received. 

Income tax recoverable on covenants or gift aid donations is recognised when the income is recognised. 

Grants and legacies to the PCC are accounted for as soon as the PCC is notified of its legal entitlement and the amount due. 

Funds raised by the fete, garden party and similar events are accounted for gross. Sales of magazines from the church are accounted for gross. 

## **Other ordinary income** 

Rental income from the letting of church premises is recognised when the rental is due. 

## **Resources expended** 

## **Activities directly relating to the work of the church** 

Costs of generating voluntary income comprise those costs directly attributable to generating incoming resources for the charity and include staff costs and attributable overhead cost. 

Charitable activities expenditure represents the overhead and staff costs incurred for the furtherance of the charity's objectives as stated in the annual report.  Expenditure is shown gross, inclusive of unrecoverable VAT and is charged on an accruals basis.  Costs are allocated to the particular activity that directly relates to it.  Where costs cannot be directly attributed they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of the resources. 

_Page 8_ 



Governance costs are those incurred in connection with the management of the Parochial Church Council of All Saints, Wellingborough's assets, organisational administration and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Restricted funds are to be used for specified purposes laid down by the donor or by the purpose of the appeal.  Expenditure for those purposes is charged to the fund, together with a fair allocation of overheads and support costs. 

Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for expenditure on the general objectives of the charity. 

## **Fixed assets** 

## **Consecrated land and buildings and movable church furnishings** 

Consecrated and beneficed property is excluded from the accounts by s.10(2) of the Charities Act 2011. 

No value is placed on 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 the year on consecrated or benefice buildings and movable church furnishings, whether maintenance or improvement, is written off as expenditure in the SOFA and separately disclosed. 

## **Other fixtures, fittings and office equipment** 

Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight line basis over 4 years. Individual terms of equipment with a purchase price of £1,000 or less are written off when the asset is acquired. 

## **Current assets** 

Amounts owing to the PCC at 31 December in respect of fees, rents or other income are shown as debtors less provision for amounts that may prove uncollectible. 

## **Short-term deposits include cash held on deposit either with the CBF Church of England Funds or at the bank.** 

## **Church Workers Pension Fund (CWPF) December 2020 Year End** 

_**All Saints**_ participates in the Pension Builder Scheme section of CWPF for lay staff. The Scheme is administered by the Church of England Pensions Board, which holds the assets of the schemes separately from those of the Employer and the other participating employers. 

The Church Workers Pension Fund has a section known as the Defined Benefits Scheme, a deferred annuity section known as Pension Builder Classic and a cash balance section known as Pension Builder 2014. 

_Page 9_ 



**Church Workers Pension Fund (CWPF) Draft FRS102 Wording - December 2024 Year End** 

**All Saints Church** 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. a deferred annuity section known as Pension Builder Classic, and, 

- b. 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 Classic**_ 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 between 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 **(2024: £1086, 2023: £992).** 

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 2025, the Board chose to grant a discretionary bonus of 6.7% 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 2006 service so that the pension increase was 2.7% (where usually it would be calculated based on inflation up to 2.5%). This followed improvements in the funding position over 2024. There is no requirement for deficit payments at the current time. 

The next valuation is due as at 31 December 2025. 

_Page 10_ 



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 legal structure of the scheme is such that if another employer fails, **All Saints Church** could become responsible for paying a share of the failed employer’s pension liabilities.

## **Independent examiners, report to the trustees of All Saints, Wellingborough** 

The Charity’s Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. We report on the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2024, which are set out on pages 6 to 17. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011(the Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is our responsibility to 

- Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act 

- Follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act and 

- State whether particular matters have come to our attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner’s report** 

Our examination was carried out in accordance with 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 you as 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 examiners’ statement** 

In the course of our examination no matter has come to our attention 

- 1 which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements 

   - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act and 

   - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the requirements of the Act, as also contained in the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 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 to be reached.
