REIGATE PARK UNITED REFORMED CHURCH CHARITY REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st DECEMBER 2024

INTRODUCTION

This report is produced in accordance with the requirements of FRS 102 and the Statement of Recommended Practice (FRS 102) issued by the Charities Commission.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

As a local congregation of the United Reformed Church, Reigate Park seeks to advance the Christian religion through its activities and the facilities offered to the community by its building, and described more specifically in its mission statement which states:

Travelling together with Jesus in faith, hope and love. Reaching out with God's care and love for all.

The Elders’ Meeting is aware of the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit in "The Advancement of Religion for the Public Benefit" and has regard to it in the administration of the Church. The Elders’ Meeting believes that the Church provides benefit to the public by:

• e providing resources and facilities for public worship, pastoral care and spiritual, moral and intellectual development, both for the congregation and for anyone else who wishes to benefit from what the Church offers

• e promoting Christian values and service by members of the congregation to the community, for the benefit of individuals and society as a whole.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

The activities of Reigate Park United Reformed Church are overseen by the Elders’ Meeting of the Church in accordance with the provisions of The Structure of the United Reformed Church. This is determined by the General Assembly of the United Reformed Church and supplemented by the constitution of Reigate Park United Reformed Church. The governing document of the registered charity is a statement adopted by the Church Meeting on 17th March 2009. The Church Meeting consists of those persons who have been admitted to the full privileges and responsibilities of membership of the United Reformed Church and whose names are included on the membership roll of such local Church. The Church Meeting has the ultimate authority on the life and work of the Church. The Elders' Meeting is responsible for the financial administration of the Church, and the care and maintenance of Church premises and the Manse, provide advice and recommendations to the Church Meeting whilst fulfilling their responsibilities as Trustees. The members of the Elders’ Meeting are the trustees of the registered charity during their period of service as Elders. Up to 12 members of Reigate Park Church can be nominated and elected at Church meeting by the members of Reigate Park Church to serve as Elders. Elders serve for 3 years, retire by rotation and are eligible for re-election. There is normally a limit of two consecutive periods of 3 years of service. The Elders Meeting met 11 times during the year, to oversee our pastoral responsibility and continued smooth running of the church. The Elders are assisted in the administration of the Church and its property by committees established for: Finance,

1

Premises and Management, Social and Fundraising and the Worship Planning Group and Media Group.

These committees report to Elders and Church Meeting at least annually. The Church was without a full time Minister until September 2024 but continues to pay into the URC central Ministry and Mission Fund. We formed a joint Pastorate (North Downs Surrey) with Banstead, Dorking and Redhill URCs in 2023 and a new Minister, Revd. Siobhan Antoniou was Ordained to work in all four churches on 7 September 2024. We have a Local Church Leader, Mrs Susan Knight (unpaid) and employed three part time members of staff, the Church Administrator, Church & Community Manager and Caretaker. A contractor was used for cleaning for the year.

The Church building and the Manse at 7 Priory Drive, Reigate, Surrey RH2 8AF are vested in Southern Synod Trust as trustees and held for the benefit of Reigate Park URC in accordance with the trusts applicable to URC properties. The Manse was rented out for part of 2024 but has been significantly refurbished and the new Minister is now living there. .

TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

2

The law applicable to charities in England & Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

• e select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently

• e observe the methods and principles in Charities SORP 2015 (FRS 102)

• e make judgements 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

• e 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 and the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Trustees receive advice and training on all matters necessary to enable them to perform their duties. The Trustees are aware of their responsibilities for assessing and managing the risks faced by the church and continue to implement plans to mitigate those risks. The principal risks to the finances and continuity of the church are the church buildings. This is addressed by a regular programme of maintenance and improvement.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER

The Independent Examiner is Mr Keith Halstead MA (Oxon) FCA 60 Woodcote Hurst, Epsom Surrey KT18 7DT.

The Church building and the manse at 7 Priory Drive, Reigate, Surrey RH2 8AF are vested in Southern Synod Trust as trustees and held for the benefit of Reigate Park URC in accordance with the trusts applicable to URC properties.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Details of the Church's Income and Expenditure and its assets at the year-end are given in the Financial Statements for the Year. In 2024 there was a deficit of £18,972 (2023 — surplus of £29,682). Although legacies of £39,000 were received, expenditure rose due to the following reasons:

• a) Donations reduced to £4,365 as opposed to 2023 donations of £29,269 which had included a large donation of £25,000.

• b) A Designated Fund was set up in 2023 to ring-fence Manse Rental for refurbishment of the Manse as authorised by Synod, and £50,632 was spent in 2024. A new code has been set up to log this and future expenditure as an expense rather than negative income on Manse Rental.

3

• c) Property Income has reduced due to the Manse Rental stopping and that income reduced to £4,416 in 2024. This increased the Minister’s and Manse Expenses significantly and Manse Rental (part of Property Income) also stopped, reducing that income to £4,416 in 2024. Minister's and Manse Expenses also rose by £2,533 when the building stopped being rented out. The Pastorate now shares expenses for the property and the Pastorate Minister.

• d) Church running costs rose by £5,575 overall, which includes depreciation of £3,137 from the addition of £11,137 Tangible Assets to sundry income in in 2023.

The agreement with Synod, Ministry and Mission payments to pay a reduced amount continued in 2024, saving £15,033.

The Trustees have designated £70,000 to hold in reserve for the 2024 financial year in accordance with the Reserves Policy (The equivalent of four months general running costs, three month’s salary costs and likely capital expenditure).

REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS

Our priorities remained largely the same as in 2023 with the main focus being working towards calling a new Minister for our Joint Pastorate. The Elders Meeting along with our Local Church Leader and our new Minister have continued to oversee the provision of regular Sunday Worship and activities which give opportunities for spiritual nourishment and social interaction.

Ministerial Team

From January to 7" September, Mrs Sue Knight Local Church Leader & Ordinand had Pastoral Oversight and led the church whilst it was still in vacancy.

From 7" September onwards following her Ordination and Induction the Rev Siobhan Antoniou (Minister of North Downs Surrey Pastorate of four churches which included Reigate Park) became part of the Ministerial Team with Mrs Sue Knight Local Church Leader and Ordinand.

Rev Siobhan Antoniou

Rev. Siobhan Antoniou is the minister to the North Downs Surrey Pastorate, serving alongside Sue Knight at Reigate Park Church. Siobhan leads our ministry to children and families while, together with Sue, supporting the church’s wider discipleship, mission and outreach.

Mrs Sue Knight

Sue Knight is an Assembly Accredited Lay Preacher and was commissioned as our Local Church Leader in November 2019. Since being in vacancy from May 2020 she has had Pastoral Oversight of Reigate Park Church. She attends the local Clergy Fraternity, North Downs Cluster of URC’s, the Synod Area and Synod Together meetings. Sue is also Lay Preaching Advocate for Southern Synod and in that role sits on the Synod Ministries Committee. She is also part of the new Synod Deployment Consultation Group. Having completed the application for ministry process, Sue started her training for Non-Stipendiary Ministry at Westminster College Cambridge in September 2023 and will complete it in July

4

1. She will then be Ordained and Inducted as a 50% Non- Stipendiary Minister of Word and Sacraments for Reigate Park

Sunday Services

We provide weekly Sunday services which are led by our Minister, Revd. Siobhan Antoniou, our Local Church Leader, Mrs Sue Knight, our Lay Preacher Mrs Lynne Skinner and other visiting ministers and lay preachers. These services are varied, and we encourage participation by others particularly by our children and young people.

Other Services

We also held a number of special services throughout the year including our Memorial Book service and Remembrance Sunday service (this in conjunction with St. Luke’s Church). We hosted the Ordination Service for our new Minister on 7 September 2024. Over the Christmas period we held a Crib and Christingle Service, a Christingle Service for our uniformed organisations, a Nativity Service and a Family Service on Christmas Day.

Baptisms/funerals

We held 2 infant baptisms, 1 wedding and 4 funerals.

Membership

We welcomed 4 people into Church Membership.

On-line access to worship

We continue to provide on-line access to our services. They are live streamed and available via you-tube. Our average viewing figures are 48 per service.

Junior Church

• a. We have an active Junior Church with children and young people of primary and secondary school age. As our age-range widens we aim to split the group after an initial introduction to the theme; the secondary-aged children go upstairs to give them the chance to discuss topics in more depth. In 2024 we were very happy to have a new leader & helper, plus three new families.

• b. As well as attending their weekly sessions they also play an important part in many aspects of Church life

• e We made 140 Mothering Sunday cards which were distributed to all ladies on the church list

• e We achieved the renewal of our Children and Youth Friendly Church Award

• e Junior Church prepared and led two services (May & September)

• e In February we held a Games Night, with pizza and ice cream, organised by parents and supported by Junior Church leaders & helpers

• e In July we did litter-picking in the church grounds as part of our Church's commitment to Eco Matters

5

• e In September we launched the new year in Junior Church by inviting all children & young people to a breakfast

• e In October Sue Knight re-dedicated all volunteers who work with children & young people at RPC e.g. in Junior Church, at toddler groups, in uniformed organisations etc

• e In October we launched ‘Split Groups’ in Junior Church, where the children & young people start the session together & then split into primary & secondary groups for age-appropriate activities / discussions

• e In October we held a Mexican-themed Movie Night, including Mexican food

• e Junior Church regularly prepared and served coffee and tea after the service — and washed up!

• e Our Nativity Service was written by a Junior Church leader and presented by all our children & young people; this included drama and solo singing from children, young people and adults

• e Children & Young People were encouraged to take part Sunday Worship, e.g. by doing Bible readings, leading action songs, participating in activities when invited.

Communication

We print weekly service leaflets and send out a weekly newsletter by email. Our Church Magazine, The Record, is available in print form and is sent out electronically. We use these methods to keep the church family and the wider community up to date with events in our church.

Vacancy & Deployment

The Vacancy Group, chaired by Revd. Roger Jones continued to meet during the first half of the year and oversaw the process of calling and appointing a new Minister. This involved selecting and interviewing a suitable ministerial candidate, liaising with the churches in the pastorate over the issuing of the call to Revd. Siobhan Antoniou and the organisation of her Ordination and Induction Service held at Reigate Park Church on 7 September. With the calling of a new Minister, this group was disbanded.

Following her Ordination Rev Siobhan Antoniou convened a Liaison Group comprising representatives of the four churches. This group meets regularly with the Minister to look at ways for the 4 churches to work in a more cohesive way, i.e joint services/events etc The Treasurers of the four churches also meet via zoom to liaise over financial matters when necessary. Pastorate Pastoral Group meets to discuss and learn from each about how pastoral care can be administered in the Pastorate church settings.

_ Faith groups

Our own Faith & Fellowship group continued to meet in person regularly during the year and our new Minister held Pastorate wide groups, in person during Advent and via zoom during Lent.

6

Pastoral Support

Pastoral Care forms a very important part of the life of Reigate Park Church. The Pastoral Group is led by Mrs Sue Knight Local Church leader with 4 other members of the group and meet weekly.

Elders and Church Meetings

We held 6 in person Church Meetings. The Elders met 11 times and have participated in URC Safeguarding training sessions.

• Cluster activities

Some of our congregation attended the Cluster Tea, walk and service at Dorking URC in June and we hosted the Cluster Supper in October. Sadly, for a number of reasons the Cluster has now ceased with the main reason that going forward many churches are being formed into multi church pastorates, and they need the time and energy to make those pastorates work.

Support for Charities

We continue to support local charities and those further afield. This year we supported Macmillan Cancer Support, Reigate & Redhill Music Festival, Sparkfish, our local food bank, Christian Aid, The Children’s Society, Homestart, Welcare, Water Aid, Cocos Foundation, Conquest Art and the Woodhatch Community Orchard. (/ have included those we support by providing premises free of charge e.g. Sparkfish)

Maintenance of our church building

This is an on-going responsibility. The Quinquennial Inspection organised by Southern Synod was held in November and highlighted some areas of work that need attention. The Premises Committee meet regularly with our Church & Community Manager to monitor the condition of our building and to organise any necessary work.

Eco awareness

Having achieved the A Rocha Silver Eco award in 2023, we continue to encourage our congregation to be eco aware. We have supported the Woodhatch Community Orchard and continue to collect batteries, used postage stamps and ink cartridges for recycling.

Social Activities

We have a hard working Social & Fundraising Group who organised various activities during the year including games afternoons, Bring & Share Harvest Lunch, a plant sale, a Macmillan Coffee Morning, a quiz evening for the Woodhatch Community Orchard, a Christmas Wreath making workshop. We also held a Church Family Christmas Lunch.

Our Tea, Laughter and Chat Group and Church Book Groups continue to meet regularly.

Our two Toddier Groups which meet weekly including in the school holidays continue to flourish.

7

None of our activities are possible without the work of our large number of volunteers. They are central to the life of the church and help to spread the workload.

PRIORITIES FOR 2025

• e Continue to develop our relationship with the other churches in the pastorate

• e To continue to review the LMMR report, to ensure it is a “Living Document” including updating the action plan on a regular basis.

• e To follow the aims and objectives of the URC Charter for Children
