Statement of Public Benefit
The trustees of the Charity are aware of the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit in The Advancement of Religion for the Public Benefit and have had regard to it in their administration of the Charity. The trustees believe that, by promoting the work of the Church of England in the Ecclesiastical Parish of St Nicholas, Codsall, Staffordshire in the Diocese of Lichfield it helps to promote the whole mission of the Church (pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical) more effectively, within the Ecclesiastical Parish, and that in doing so it provides a benefit to the public by: -
-
Providing facilities for public worship, pastoral care and spiritual, moral and intellectual development, both for its members and for anyone who wishes to benefit from what the Church offers: and
-
Promoting Christian values, and service by members of the Church in and to their communities, to the benefit of individuals and society as a whole.

Financial Review 2021
There has been a change in the way the accounts have been prepared this year. It has been decided to move Accrual to Receipts and Payments. This will have some effect on the figures presented but the overall state of the accounts will not be significantly altered.
Our regular donations have experienced a steep drop in 2021 from around £66,000 to £40,000. A portion of this can be explained by our change in accounting procedures but this 40% reduction is significant. This has vindicated the actions taken in 2020 by the PCC in making the regrettable redundancies. This has meant that this reduction of income has not had the catastrophic effect on our finances that might otherwise have occurred.
The Parish Share was paid in full but was subsidised by a substantial gift from the diocese of £19,558.
The internal decoration of St Nicholas has been completed using restricted funds in 2021 and is greatly appreciated by all who attend the church. The proposed AV system upgrade is still awaiting faculty approval. The application is under review but is hoped to be concluded next year and the finance is largely in place.
The work on the extension to the churchyard has been completed although it has yet to be consecrated so cannot yet be used for burials. The restricted Set Aside Fund was used for this.

There has been a steady increase in our occasional offices of funerals, burials etc. which represents a significant portion of our income. We have however only conducted 8 weddings, which is a significant reduction on pre Covid levels but a marginal increase on the 5 conducted in 2019 when many were deferred or cancelled.
The income from our halls and magazine have recovered somewhat and there are signs that this will continue. Fund raising remains low due to the current restrictions imposed.

The loan taken out to build the disabled toilet and tea bar has started to be called in again by the diocese after an extended “holiday”. It is being fully funded through the Warner Bequest which has largely been invested. The growth in this investment is reassuring although some will need to be expended in the future to help pay off the loan.
Our property valuations show a loss. This is largely as a result of a £35,000 reduction in the valuation of St Peter’s Hall. The value is calculated according to the income received. In 2020 it had been decided not to alter it due to the reduction in income being caused by the Covid pandemic, which was more of an unknown factor at the time. Other properties are revalued according to the appropriate annual inflation indices.
The day-to-day financial position of the church remains in a precarious position; however, the investments and cash reserves are ensuring we have time to rebuild and recover. That process is well in hand. The Covid pandemic has changed a lot of things over the last 2 years and will continues to affect our finances for some time to come.
Reserves Policy
It is PCC policy to try to maintain a balance on free reserves (net current assets) which equates to at least three months unrestricted payments. This is equivalent to £37,340. It is held to smooth out fluctuations in cash flow and to meet emergencies. The balance of the free reserves at the year end was £145,957 which is considerably higher than this target.
4
Investment Policy
The charity is granted power to invest in suitable investments under the PCC Powers Measure 1956 and the Trustees Act 2000. As a charity, the Trustees have a duty of care to take such advice as is appropriate before investments are undertaken. This advice is sought from the Central Board of Finance (CCLA) in London. AFH Wealth Management and EFG Harris Allday
The charity’s investment policies are based on two key principles: -
-
Ethical Investment – this includes ensuring that investments are held in companies which have high standards of corporate governance and act in a responsible way towards stakeholders.
-
Long-term responsibilities – the trustees are aware of their long-term responsibilities in respect of the Restricted and Unrestricted reserves and as a result follow a prudent approach to investment decisions.
Investment policy for long-term funds is aimed primarily at generating a sustainable income, with due regard to the need for the preservation of capital value, and the possible need to realise investments to meet operational needs. The charity does not have a policy of generating income at excessive or high risk – known as “purchasing income”, where high returns are guaranteed at the expense of capital.
In summary, the charity has an overall policy to maximise income while preserving the real value of its funds. Due to the nature of the charity, an ethical investment policy is taken into consideration when investments are made: The charity follows the Ethical Investment Advisory policy as recommended by the Lichfield Diocese which includes the following:
-
“We aim to invest in companies that:
-
will develop their business in the interests of shareholders;
-
demonstrate responsible employment practices;
-
are conscientious concerning issues of corporate governance, the environment and human rights;
-
are sensitive to the community in which they operate.”
Planned giving, collections and donations are the main sources of fund raising along with tax recoverable. It is the policy of the PCC to invest funds to achieve a balance of income and growth using a spread of medium and low risk CBF Fund investments.
Safeguarding
The PCC believe they have fulfilled their duty under section 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016 (duty to have due regard to House of Bishops’ guidance on safeguarding children and vulnerable adults).
Reporting Serious Incidents
A Serious Incident is an adverse event, whether actual or alleged, which results in or risks significant harm to the charity’s beneficiaries, employees, office holders, volunteers or to others who come into contact with the charity through its work, loss of the charity’s money or assets, damage to the charity’s property or harm to the charity’s work or reputation.
The trustees are not aware of any Serious Incidents in the last year
Fundraising
The PCC takes it fundraising responsibilities seriously and is very grateful to all donors – whether regular or occasional – for their support of the church and church events. PCC supporters are never taken for granted. The PCC take full responsibility for fundraising and do not use commercial organisations or professional fundraisers. All money raised is either by donations, fundraising events, special appeals or legacies for which the PCC are most grateful.
Volunteers
The members of the PCC would like to thank all the volunteers who work so hard to make our Church a lively and vibrant community.
5
Risk Management
The Church Wardens carry out regular Health and Safety Reviews and regularly inspect premises for potential hazards. We have safeguarding policies in place for child protection and for work with vulnerable adults, including rigorous DBS checking of staff and volunteers. Our insurances are reviewed annually to ensure adequate cover. An informal review of any new risks which may impact the work of the Church in the Parish is ongoing.
Structure, Governance and Management
The PCC is a Body Corporate established by the Church of England and is a Charity registered with the Charity Commission. The PCC is governed by the Parochial Church Council Powers Measure (1956) as amended that came into effect on 2[nd] January 1957, and the Church Representation Rules (contained in Schedule 3 to the Synodical Government Measure 1969 as amended).
The method of appointment of the PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. The Council comprises the Incumbent, the Churchwardens, a representative of the Readers, those elected to the Deanery Synod, and other members who are elected at the Annual Parochial Church Meeting, by those on the Electoral Roll. The PCC members receive training from courses run by the Diocese. Members of the congregation are always urged to join the Electoral Roll, and to stand for election to the PCC.
The PCC members are responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance in the parish, and for all financial matters. The PCC met 6 times in 2021. [Given its responsibilities, the PCC has a number of sub committees, each dealing with a particular aspect of parish life. These include Finance and Standing Committee. Each reports back to the PCC with the minutes of their meetings.]
Related Parties
No related parties have been had any dealings with the PCC during 2021
Donations from Related Parties
Donations from related parties during the year totalled £6,875. All of these donations were received without conditions.
Remuneration paid to Trustees
One of the trustees has been paid £5,095.80 remuneration or for her duties as a Verger No other Trustee received remuneration or any other benefits from employment with the PCC
Expenses paid to Trustees
One trustee was reimbursed £346 for travel and subsistence during the year.
Future Plans
• see Focus Area’s identified 2020
Grant Making Policy
For 2021 it was reluctantly decided to suspend our policy of giving 3.5% of our General Fund income due to the significant reduction in our income. Some donations have been made but these have been limited.
A new diocesan levy, called the Common Fund, is being introduced in 2022 to replace the Parish Share. This will request a significant £17,556 reduction, in what is now called the minimum request. The Common Fund is built around the Cost of Ministry and the Deprivation Index of parishes. It is not a surprise to learn that Codsall is one of the least deprived parishes in the diocese and the reduction is because we had been contributing around 30% over and above the theoretical Parish Share request.
Our Grant Making Policy is to be reviewed in 2022 following all these changes

Independent Examiner’s report to the trustees/members of The PCC of The Parish of Codsall Registered charity number, if applicable: 1130892
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31[st] December 2021 which are set out on the following pages.
Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and Independent Examiner
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and th at an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility
-
to examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission
-
(under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with the 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 the 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 Examiner's Statement
In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act or
-
the accounts do not accord with the with the accounting records
I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

For the year ended 31[st] December 2021
The Parish of Central Wolverhampton Notes to the Financial Statements
Accounting Policies
The Financial statements of the PCC have been prepared in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 using the Receipts and Payments basis.
There may be minor discrepancies in the totals as the pence are not being shown.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant notes to these accounts. 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.
Cashflow Statement
The Charity has taken advantage of the exemption in FRS102 from the requirement to produce a cashflow statement on the grounds that the income does not exceed £500,000.
Going Concern
There are no material uncertainties relate to events or conditions that cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Accounting Estimates and Prior Year Errors
No changes to accounting estimates have occurred in the reporting period. No material prior year errors have been identified in the reporting period
Description of Funds
Unrestricted funds are income funds of the PCC that are available for spending on the general purposes of the PCC, including amounts designated by the PCC for fixed assets for its own use or for spending on a future project and which are therefore not included in its "free reserves" as disclosed in the trustees' annual report.
An explanation of purpose of each Designated fund are as follows:
-
Projects – Forthcoming projects – Money ringfenced for projects agreed by the PCC
-
NextGen – St Nicholas – Next Generation – Money ringfenced for St Nicholas for use for work with children.
Restricted funds comprise of two elements :-
-
a) income from trusts or endowments which may be expended only on those restricted objects provided in the terms of the trust or bequest
-
b) donations or grants received for a specific object or invited by the PCC for a specific object. The funds may only be expended on the specific object for which they were given. Any balance remaining unspent at the end of each year must be carried forward as a balance on that fund. The PCC does not usually invest separately for each fund. Where there is no separate investment, interest is apportioned to individual funds on an average balance basis.
11
An explanation of purpose of each Restricted fund are as follows:
-
HFabric – Church Fabric fund –Donations and bequests for work on the Fabric and maintenance of St Nicholas Church.
-
SetAside – Churchyard Set Aside – Donations for maintenance of the Churchyard
-
Organ Fund – Donations for the maintenance of the Organ and other music facilities.
-
VcRedec – Codsall Vicarage Redecoration – Restricted for the re-decoration of the Vicarage
-

-
Vicarage – Car park fund – This was originally set up to enable the car park to be built and now represents the capital asset value of the car park.
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. Full details of all their restrictions are shown in the notes to the accounts.
An explanation of purpose of each Endowment fund are as follows:
The PCC of Codsall do not hold any Endowment funds
Incoming Resources
Planned giving, collections and donations are recognised when received or when the PCC becomes entitled to the resource and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. Tax refunds are recognised when the incoming resource to which they relate is received. Grants and Legacies are accounted for when the PCC is legally entitled to the amounts due and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. Dividends are accounted for when receivable, interest is accrued. All other income is recognised when it is receivable. All incoming resources are accounted for gross.
Resources Expended
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 is accounted for when due. Amounts received specifically for mission are dealt with as restricted funds. All other expenditure is generally recognised when it is incurred and is accounted for gross.
Governance and Support Costs
Support costs should be allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the PCC and its compliance with regulation and good practice. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources eg by allocating staff costs by time spent and other costs by their usage.
Fixed Assets
Consecrated and benefice property is not included in the accounts by s.10(2)(a)&(C) of the Charities Act 2011. Moveable church furnishings held by the Vicar and Churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal are inalienable property, listed in the Church’s inventory, which can be inspected (at any reasonable time). For anything acquired prior to 2000 there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such assets are not valued in the financial statements.
No depreciation is provided on buildings as the currently estimated residual value of the properties is not less than their carrying value and the remaining useful life of these assets exceeds 50 years, so that any depreciation charges would be immaterial.
Other tangible fixed assets are valued at cost apart from the Village hall which is valued on the annual rental income raised to the nearest £500 above x10. The depreciation rates and methods used are 50% per annum.
12
Investments
Investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued initially at cost and subsequently at market value at the year end. Investments held for re-sale are treated as current asset investments.
Debtors
Debtors are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount. Subsequently they are measured as cash expected to be received
Creditors and Accruals
Creditors are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts. Accruals are measured on best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date.
