The Parish of Keighley

Registered Charity number 1130301 Office Address 8-10 North Street, Keighley BD21 3SE Accounts Examiner Hart Wright Accounting, 24 Hall Drive, Sutton BD20 7NH Bankers CAF Bank, King’s Hill, West Malling, ME19 4TA Insurers Ecclesiastical Insurance, Beaufort House, Brunswick Road, Gloucester GL1 1JZ

Legal and Administrative Information

The Parish of Keighley had 4 churches at the start of 2023.

All Saints Church, Keighley

St Andrews’ Church, Keighley

St Barnabas Church, Thwaites Brow

St Mark’s Church, Utley

As of 22[nd] May 2023 the church of All Saints was formally closed for worship following a consultation period and a Pastoral Scheme by the Church Commissioners.

The Parish of Keighley is in the Aire and Worth Deanery and the Bradford Episcopal Area of the Diocese of Leeds.

Structure and Governance

The Parochial Church council (hereafter referred to as the PCC) is a corporate body established by the Church of England. The PCC operated under the PCC Powers Measure.

The Parish charity registration is 1130301

Trustees

The managing Trustees are the members of the PCC.

The composition of the election of members to the PCC is set out in SCHEME PURSUANT TO RULE 18, CHURCH REPRESENTATIVE RULES (2017) THE PARISH OF KEIGHLEY, which was passed at an extraordinary PCC meeting on the 16 February 2017 and subsequently approved by the Bishop’s Council of the Diocese of Leeds ahead of the APCM. The Wardens and PCC members of the Parish became trustees of the charity.

The governance document defined the establishment of Local Church councils (LCCs) for each church and the relevant representation of each of the four churches on the PCC. It also defines the relevant powers and responsibilities held by the LCCs in each local church. Since an internal revision of governance the Parish of Keighley refers to LCCs as Prayer and Planning Groups (PPGs).

APCM 28.4.24

Objectives and Activities

Keighley Parish PCC and the PPGs have the responsibility of co-operating with the Clergy Team of Keighley Parish led by the Team Rector, Revd Canon Mike Cansdale, in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the church, pastoral, evangelical, social and ecumenical.

TEAM RECTOR’S REMARKS

After 18 months of clergy vacancies, it was great to start 2023 with a full complement. As the year has gone on it has felt that the new team structures and governance have released energy into the local churches whilst also maintaining the links across the strategic areas with the PCC and the whole parish.

Relationships with partners in the town, such as the Town Council, Area Coordinators Office, Youth Service, Keighley College, Place of Sanctuary group, Keighley Creative, Keighley Cougars, local MP etc are strong and developing. This means that the parish is invited to be present and contribute to key events and that we are seen as important partners in the town.

A very significant matter in 2023 has been the closure of one of our churches, All Saints in Highfield. Coming out of Covid, the combination of a depleted congregation and high repair costs to the building led to this decision. The congregation approached this with courage and character making the decision to cease worshipping in the building with a celebration of ministry at the end of October 2022 (All Saints Day). The formal process of consultation led by the Diocese and Church Commissioners concluded with a Pastoral Scheme for closure coming into force on 23[rd] May 2023. It has been a painful time for those who have belonged there, but I’m glad to report that members of All Saints have found new homes across the other churches of the parish, and for some, in neighbouring parishes.

2023 was also quite a year of departures and arrivals in terms of the parish team; Paul Fleming retired as Operations Manager in May and he & Julie moved to Southend where Julie has taken up a House-for-Duty post at St Saviours, Westcliff-on-Sea; and our Mission Apprentice Fran Talbot left the programme early due to family circumstances. With changes to their roles, Revd Dr Tracey Raistrick

APCM 28.4.24

became Minister with the Deaf Community for the Diocese of Leeds and Steve Sprange took on additional hours in the Good Food Shop at the end of his MA. Over the summer we have welcomed Revds Amy & Jon Berry, Mission Apprentices Caron Croad, Danny Tillotson & Jason Learner. The new office team of Sam Rushworth as Ops Manager and Joe Rundle as senior administrator also started in the summer. We are grateful for Strategic Development Funding from the ‘Resourcing Churches’ programme that we are part of in the Bradford Episcopal Area. This has enabled us to extend our impact in Keighley town centre, in our estate communities, with children and families and with investment to revitalise Ingrow Parish.

With the call to pray for 75 baptisms I ‘m glad to be able to report that at the end of 2023 this figure stood at 52 for the churches in Keighley Parish. With a special confirmation and baptism service on Maundy Thursday with Bishop Toby and further adult baptisms by full immersion in November we are seeing lives touched by God’s love and grace, and these people now going out to tell others of Jesus Christ who has brought new life to them.

I want to express thanks to the many, many people who contribute to the life of our churches in Keighley. This is the reality of the body of Christ; each member playing their part in His church; each one important in the Kingdom of God. At every level there are people giving generously of time, energy, resources and finance. Through your faithful service, you are making a difference for the Kingdom of God. From the teams that serve in our Sunday worship, to those who cook for our outreach events; the leaders of small groups to the befrienders with CAP & KEYS; from PPG members to volunteers in our children’s team; those who are our prayer warriors to the activists on the estates.

With prayers of hope and expectancy for all that God will bring in 2024.

Rev Canon Mike Cansdale

ELECTORAL ROLL REPORT

The electoral roll did not change greatly during the year; overall there were 9 fewer members than in 2022. The numbers for each church were:

All Saints 36
St Andrew’s 109
St Barnabas 39
St Mark's 49
TOTAL 233

DEANERY SYNOD REPORT

There were three meetings of Deanery Synod in 2023.

In February the Revd Jude Smith shared a short video introducing ‘Barnabas: Encouraging confidence’ project being introduced across the Diocese. The idea is to encourage confidence and to support churches to move forward in mission, ministry and sustainability in a way that is prayerful, intentional and, within the grace of God, possible. After information and discussion the meeting decided that overall being encouraged and sharing resources was a positive thing.

APCM 28.4.24

In June, Rev Lyndsay Pearson, appointed to St. John’s Cottingley, was welcomed to synod. Elections for Synod roles were held over to the October meeting. The invited speaker was Rev Ned Lunn, Cathedral Canon for Intercultural Mission and the Arts. He spoke about how Parishes can engage with the City of Culture 2025 programme. Learning from faith representatives from previous host cities he suggests that rather than putting on poorly attended exhibitions we could use our buildings as host buildings for events, workshops and rehearsal spaces. He asked the meeting what might be the barriers/risks/problems that would hinder offering a space in our venues and what interest or inspiration members of Synod felt about his suggestions. Discussions followed. Ned emphasised that the intentions are that the city of culture 2025 goes on after the year and that it is planned to be a starting point with a long legacy.

Rev Oli Preston was welcomed to the October meeting. Elections were held for both lay and clergy positions within Deanery Synod. A report from Diocesan Synod was presented. Elizabeth Anderson of The Memory Tree spoke about dementia and the support that The Memory Tree gives to dementia sufferers and their carers. Brian, an Admiral Nurse Advocate, spoke about his own story ending with the death of his wife and the support he had received from Admiral Nurses. Both speakers were passionate and very well informed and it was a really interesting meeting. As many in Keighley Parish will know, The Memory Tree meets in the Methodist Hall at St. Andrews and we have a great advocate for Dementia Friendly churches in Lesley Ord from St. Barnabas.

There will be one more meeting in 2024 before Parishes hold their APCMs. Those elected to Deanery Synod in 2023 will serve for 3 years.

FABRIC REPORT FOR ST ANDREWS CHURCH

We have continued to implement our Annual Maintenance Programme and progress Quinquennial actions. All major work has been completed and most other recommendations. A new Quinquennial Inspection is due this year.

The logbook and Property register are up to date and have been signed for the year.

Decluttering and tidying is ongoing providing more efficient use of our limited storage. Our biannual Spring / Autumn cleaning and basic maintenance continues and we are grateful for the help of volunteers.

Thankfully no major work has been required this year. Some roof maintenance has taken place and an ongoing issue with vermin has now been resolved.

Investigative work regarding a broken loop system is ongoing and will be expensive but is deemed necessary. We hope to replace the halogen lights with LED bulbs in the main body of the church. These works will be expensive but it is hoped we may be successful in securing a grant.

APCM 28.4.24

We are grateful to the Probation Services who continue to provide support in the churchyard each week. When we can afford to, we would like to increase our car parking spaces where ground has been cleared.

The Building Project planning the redevelopment and refurbishment of St Andrew’s continues. Purchase of the Church Hall from the Methodists, as part of this project, is proceeding. Concept designs from the architect have been received and displayed and presentations with feedback opportunity are taking place with all interested parties. A geophysical survey of the church yard has taken place and the Group awaits the report. The Building Steering Group and the Foundation Trustees have an extensive schedule of tasks for 2024.

It is a fine balance between current maintenance and improvements and looking forward to the future refurbishment.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to all this work over the last year, you too are really appreciated.

Anji Thomson, Church Warden

FABRIC REPORT FOR ST MARK’S CHURCH

The congregation met on two Saturdays during the year to look at developing the role of the Church and Hall in Utley and the wider Parish. A survey of 150 local residents asked them what they would like to see the hall used for. ‘Blessing our Community’ is the name we adopted for this initiative, and early in December a successful Christmas Celebration was held in the hall with some regular Churchgoers, some old friends and some completely new faces having a great time together.

The sitting tenant in part of the hall has relocated to St John’s Ingrow which has allowed us to look at opportunities to develop community use and lettings for the hall. Funding has been identified and set aside to install a fire alarm and update the emergency lighting.

The Quinquennial inspection in January 2023 has enabled a five-year repair and decoration plan to be formulated. Cleaning and maintenance of the buildings and grounds is generally carried out by our monthly prayer and pastries group, with volunteers doing extra as required. The cost of maintaining the heating systems is becoming a worry.

Numbers at the 9.30 service have maintained at 30 plus this year with the encouragement of some new and returning faces. The monthly Breakfast Church attracts a small number of parents with young children. The monthly 3pm family service is attracting more numbers and the weekly Wednesday morning communion service regularly attracts fifteen or more. A Sunday evening group for older children/younger adults has been introduced later in the year and is gaining traction.

The Christingle was a great success with 90 adults and children attending. Tea with the neighbours has been very popular and the congregation has embraced the Parish-wide social activities. LinkAge, a project for older people has run throughout the year and brings in 8-12 people every Monday. This provides the opportunity to bring people together, try different crafts, take part in light exercises and enjoy some refreshments.

FABRIC REPORT ST BARNABAS CHURCH

2023 begun with a significant facelift for the Church Hall and other sections of the building. During February Brunskills replaced all the fascias, windows and doors for the hall, vestry, kitchen and foyer. This work, which had been planned for several years, improved the look of the building considerably, but importantly also reduced heat loss. Following the facelift, we replaced all the outside lights including purchasing some emergency lights round the building.

Over the winter 22/23 there was an increasing level of concern about the roof, as well as major questions as to what might be done to replace the gas heater at the front of Church, which had been condemned in early 2022. Several remedial measures took place to make sure the church roof was as watertight as possible and that pooling of water was reduced by increasing the diameter of the gutter outlets. Once the new windows and fascias were in place we were aware that water was coming through the roof and into the hall which caused a deterioration in the wood flooring.

In April the vicar and church wardens met with Peter Harrison, the architect who has carried out quinquennial inspections in recent years. He provided advice on completely re-roofing the hall with a ‘Sarnafil’ or equivalent single ply membrane, however, we were not able to move forward further without access to monies that were (and still are) tied up in shares. It was during this period that the Parish was without an ops manager to support any further work. The PPG are keen to get this work carried out in 2024, especially given that the quinquennial has been recommending a roof replacement for some years. There is an option for doing an investigation, but the PPG would like to just move forward with the work as soon as possible.

The one thing left undone from our faculty was the reconstruction of a new ramp following the reconfiguration of the front doors into the foyer. We have looked at a few quotes, but as yet we are not quite sure how much of the front we can afford to re-tarmac. In the short term, some remedial cement work was carried out around our two manhole covers as they had become a trip hazard. When the weather turned cooler at the end of the summer, we discovered that the hall boiler was broken. After investigation it was discovered that water ingress around the flue had damaged the electrical control panel. We investigated replacing the panel but felt unable to proceed because the leak from the roof could continue to damage the boiler. We considered changing the redirecting the flue outlet out of the side wall, but we couldn’t move forward without an asbestos survey. We decided to make do with heaters in the hall and wait until we could fix the roof.

In September the vicar met with a heating engineer to find a solution to the heating in the Church. A recommendation was made to use electric heaters suspended off the beams. Our new Ops manager spoke to our energy provider to see whether we had enough power entering the building to cope with increased electricity load, which we do.

Finally, it is important to note that we have acquired a collection box, 2 tables flower stands and a paschal candle holder from the closing of All Saints Church.

SAFEGUARDING REPORT

With Paul leaving and Sam’s coming and going this has been a challenging year in terms of documenting DBS’ and updating the CofE data base.

However, we now feel to be on a more even keel. Many DBS’ have been undertaken this year, a reflection of our busy Parish life. Decisions and actions have been taken in consultation with the diocese regarding any certificates that contained historical information of possible concern.

Our Children and adults safeguarding policies have been reviewed and updated.

Training has been facilitated using the C of E online training material in basic, foundation and domestic violence training which the Diocese requires all PCC and people in leadership positions to undertake. Other individuals have undertaken these individually online and are reminded of this when they are due for their three year renewal.

We can then move forwards to think about more specific training that may be needed for specific groups such as children’s workers, those helping with CAP, grubs up, home visiting and other areas of Church life.

We continue to review any existing worship agreements annually and will create new ones should the need arise.

Other safeguarding concerns are discussed with the local safeguarding leads at St Marks, Andrew Makin and St Barnabas Rachael Mulcock as the need arises and advice sought where necessary.

Hazel Mosby, Safeguarding Lead

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The parish of Keighley accounts consist of General (Unrestricted) funds, a number of smaller funds and appeals, Outreach Missions and Projects run by the Parish, in addition to the valuation of the North Street building and other funds endowed through legacies as investments.

All donations and legacies received during 2023 totalled £330,073 (Prior year £244,452), a 30% increase. Regular donations to the parish, through standing orders, envelope giving, and the open plate totalled £173,149. The income was supported by £22,021 of one-off donations and £49,345 from SDF grant of £49277 towards Mission Apprentice, Pastoral Evangelist, and the Operation Manager salaries while £87,079 was received toward projects across the Parish. We were also very grateful for two legacy gifts of £20,000 and £500 respectively.

The income received towards charitable activities across the parish totalled £63,350 (Prior year £106,140). The decline of 40% was as a result of the reclassification of funding for some projects run for the community as donation.

The gift aid on our general funds increased by 2% to £23,433 (Prior year £22,883). The rental income declined by 23% between 2023 (£5876) and 2022 (£7,411) and systems have been put in place by the trustees to improve income through better marketing campaign and offering competitive market price.

Investments and bank interest in the general funds increased by 3% from £12,714 to £13,138. The Margaret Weddington funds £1,705 (Prior year £897) were reclassified as donations because the capital shares were not held by the parish.

Overall, the total income received £405,423, an 11% increase from the prior year £364,899. The total resources used have also increased by 6% to £395,936 from £374,458 in the prior year.

The total salaries paid by the parish were £124,118 of which 19% (£23,821) comes directly from the parish. The balance is made up of 49% grants, 32% from existing funds and restricted funds donated. The Parish has paid 100% of the shares to the Diocese totalling £106,551 (Prior year 83% paid, £95,736).

Reserves Policy

It is P.C.C. policy to retain the balance on free reserves (net current assets) which equates to three months planned regular expenditure based on the last reported 12 months. This policy was reviewed as part of the financial review and budgeting process.

Going Concern

Forecasts have been prepared for the period to 2024-25 to stress test several scenarios on the Parish’s cash resources and unrestricted reserves. Based on the work we have performed, the P.C.C. has not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on its ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. The P.C.C. had prepared forecasts for the period to 2024 based on a number of scenarios and have considered the impact upon the Parish, its cash resources, and unrestricted reserves. The P.C.C. also has some investments which could be released if required. The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis and all necessary measures taken and adopted.

A heartfelt appreciation to every member of the parish for their sacrificial giving. Their commitment has facilitated the propagation of the gospel in our community and around the world. Amiri Agbai Parish Treasurer

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Accounting Policies

The PCC is a public benefit entity within the meaning of FRS102. The financial statements have been prepared under the Charities Act 2011 and in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 governing the individual accounts of PCCs, and with the Regulations' "true and fair" provisions, together with FRS102 (2016) as the applicable accounting standards and the 2016 version of the Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP (FRS102).

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern under the historical cost convention except for the valuation of investment assets, which are shown at market value. 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 main affiliation to another body, nor those that are informal gatherings of church members.

The registered charity name of the PCC is "The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of Keighley" and our charity number is 1130301. It is a corporate body established by the Church of England.

Assets

Consecrated and benefice property.

In so far as consecrated and benefice property of any kind is excluded from the statutory definition of "charity" by Section 10(2)(a) and (c) of the Charities Act 2011 such assets are not capitalised in the financial statements.

Moveable church furnishings

These are capitalised at cost and depreciated over their useful economic life other than where insufficient cost information is available. In this case the item is not capitalised, but all items are included in the Church's inventory in any case.

Tangible fixed assets

These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year and cost at least £300. They are valued at cost or else, for gifts-in-kind, at a reasonable estimate of their open market value on receipt. Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful economic lives. Individual items of equipment with a purchase price of £300 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.

Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful economic lives. Individual items of equipment with a purchase price of £300 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.

Investments

Investments quoted on a recognised stock exchange in form of shares or their derived value are evaluated at mid-market value at the year end.

Short term deposits

These are cash held on deposit either with the CCLA or at the bank.

18

APCM 28.4.24

Fund accounting

Endowment funds are restricted funds that must be retained as trust capital either permanently or subject to a discretionary power to spend capital as income, and where the use of any income or other benefit derived from the capital may be restricted or unrestricted depending upon the purpose for which the endowment was established in the first place.

Restricted funds comprise (a) income from endowments which is to be expended only on the restricted purposes intended by the donor and (b) revenue donations or grants for a specific PCC activity intended by the donor.

Unrestricted funds are income funds which are to be spent on the general purposes of the PCC.

Designated funds are general funds set aside by the PCC for use on future projects, and which are therefore not included in its "free reserves" as disclosed in the trustees' report.

Income

Planned giving, collections and similar donations are recognised when received. Grants and legacies are accounted for when the PCC is entitled to the use of the resources, their ultimate receipt is considered reasonably certain, and the amounts are readily quantifiable. Dividends are accounted for when declared receivable, interest as and when accrued by the payer. All incoming resources are accounted for gross.

Rental income from the letting of parish owned premises is recognised when the rental is due. Realised gains or losses are recognised when investments are sold. Unrealised gains or losses are accounted for on the revaluation of investments at 31 December.

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.

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 expected to be paid over is accounted for when due.

All other expenditure is generally recognised when it is incurred and is accounted for gross.

Going Concern

The Financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. In preparing the financial statements, the PCC is responsible for assessing the Parish’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing as applicable, matters related to operations and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the PCC either intend to liquidate the Parish or its churches or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
