**Charity registration number: 1130892** 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

The Parochial Church Council of the Parish of Codsall (the PCC) has the responsibility of co-operating with the incumbent, the Reverend Margaret Mattocks in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical The PCC is also spiritually responsible for the maintenance of the Churches, the Parish Rooms, Church Road, Codsall and St Peters’ Hall, Whitehouse Lane, Codsall Wood. 

The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our Church and to become part of our parish community at St. Nicholas, Codsall and St Peters, Codsall Wood. The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the parish and makes suggestions on how our services can involve the many groups that live within our parish. Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer and scripture, music and sacrament. 

## **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 2022** 

This is the second year that we have presented our accounts as Receipts and Payments and as a result comparisons with the previous year reflect a true position. 

Our regular donations have increase by about 10% following a steep drop in 2021. This is still over 17% below the 2019 figure but show signs of recovery. This remains our single largest source of income and we are extremely grateful to all those who contribute. The loose plate giving has increased significantly now that regular services have resumed in 2022. The day-to-day income and expenditure have now stabilised after the 2 Covid effected years. Over that period significant losses were experienced and the cash flow in General Funds had to be supported by restricted funds. In 2022 there were two significant bequests received totalling over £21,000 which plugged the shortfall which had accumulated. 

The Common Fund of £67,788 was paid in full which represented a significant reduction of around £18,000 from 2021 due to a change in the way the figure is calculated. Following this a donation of £1,000 was made to the diocese to support parishes less fortunate than ourselves.  This donation was shown as missionary giving in the accounts 

A training bell was installed at a cost of £7,978. This was funded largely by the Bellringers who raised most of the installation costs themselves with the PCC support of £782. A 40% deposit of £18,407 has been made as a down payment on the new AV system which is due to be installed in 2023. This project has been in process since 2018. An appeal was made in 2018/19 which raise around £12,000 and this has been supplemented with other donations. It is being paid for from the Forthcoming Projects Fund 

The work on the extension to the churchyard has yet to be consecrated so cannot yet be used for burials. Codsall and Bilbrook Councils continue to support the cost of the churchyard.

The income from our halls have recovered significantly. Fundraising has improved and this was largely due to the Christmas Tree Festival. 

The loan taken out to build the disabled toilet and tea bar has reduced to £73,137.  It is being fully funded through the Warner Bequest which has largely been invested. A £15,000 sale of stock has been made in 2022. This fund is also used to cover the maintenance of the church. 

The day-to-day financial position of the church has now recovered so that the PCC is delighted to report that it has been able to resume it’s charitable giving in 2022. £500 donations were given to each of 4 specific causes - Toilet Twinning, The Well (Wolverhampton Foodbank), Solace Wolverhampton and Go To Place. This is in additional to the regular support given through some annual events. The Common Fund (formerly Parish Share) for Codsall includes 20% support for the more deprived parishes in the diocese (2022=£11,298). This year it was supplemented by the PCC with an additional £1,000. In 2022 the total voluntary giving was 2.7% of general income. 

## **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 £29,553  [£31,414  2021]. 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 £66,054 [£39,797 2021] General Fund £69,195 [£75,656 2021] Designated funds Total £135,249 [£115,453 2021] which is higher than this target.

## **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 102 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 ( **1130892)** .  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** 

Mrs Wallin has been employed as a Verger in 2022 [and 2021] and Mrs Jevons has been employed as an Administrator in 2022 [and 2021].  They have held these posts for many years and the PCC have decided that as valued members of the congregation along with their experience that they are both able to act as a Trustees also.  They would not be present during any discussions regarding their employment. 

## **Donations from Related Parties** 

Donations from related parties during the year totalled £7,710 [£6,875 20210].  All of these donations were received without conditions. 

## **Remuneration paid to Trustees** 

Two of the trustees have been paid £10,407.36 remuneration or for duties as a Verger and Administrator.  The PCC discussed the reason for employing the two trustees and continuing as Trustees.  They have both been employed for many years and it was felt that because of their years of experience in their respective roles and their years of attending St Nicholas Church that they wanted them both to continue in both roles.  Any discussions about their employment are held without either of them being present No other Trustee received remuneration or any other benefits from employment with the PCC. 

## **Expenses paid to Trustees** 

One trustee was reimbursed £123 for travel and subsistence during the year. 

## **Future Plans** 

1. To continue to stream our services enabling the vulnerable to participate in weekly worship 

2. To follow through on our MAP 

3. To continue support our local Foodbank 

4. To continue the ‘Go To Place’ – warm hub – in association with the local council and business 

5. To establish further ways for people to meet to consider God’s teaching via home groups. 

To provide training for those who share leadership of our groups and activities, further developing their gifts. To encourage others to take up the leadership baton. 

6 



## **Grant Making Policy** 

Donations to be made according to the financial position within the General Fund (the income available for dayto-day use). This will vary and be set in the last quarter of the year by the PCC. The aim is to return to 3.5% of the General Fund Income which was the agreed pre Covid grant making level. The Common Fund formula for Codsall includes an additional 20% Mutual Support for more deprived parishes. 

## **Social Investments** 

- Sunday services are held weekly at St Nicholas’ and on the 2[nd] & 4[th] Sunday at St. Peter’s Codsall Wood

## **The Parish of Central Wolverhampton Notes to the Financial Statements** 

For the year ended 31[st] December 2022 

## **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. 

- 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. 

**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. 

12 



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 

- IDS Fund – Codsall Vicarage Redecoration – Restricted for the re-decoration of the Vicarage 

- Quinquennial – Specific funds for the Quinquennial. 

**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 does 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 Indices used for revaluation of the Tangible fixed assets are ‘The Land Index and Nationwide Index’ 

13 



## **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.
