Pastoral Care
Making Jesu5 known is at the heart of our church life and 15 demonstrated through the pastoral work in the parish by
drawing alongside, listening, and caring. Home Communions are arranged for those who can no longer attend
church services and DVDS of the 9am service are delivered to a number of the housebound. We are blessed by the
ministry of the clergy through their faithful proclamation of God's word, administration of the sacraments,
conductinE weddings. funerals. and baptisms and in their pastoral care. The supporting ministry of LLMS,
Bereavement Support and Pastoral Team is also greatly valued.
Pastoral Team's Mlnlstry
The pastoral team consists of Jonny, Will, Anne and myself. We meet once a month to discuss visits in the past
month and future ones needed. We use the prayer list as a guide for h05Pltal visits ènd those recovering from
operations for example. We are only able to follow up congregation members due to there being just four of vs in a
large and elderly parish. We also visit past members now unable to attend as housebound or in nursing homes. It 15 a
privilege to be used in this ministry to visit, pray, taxi to hospital appointments etc. Please pray for strength and
wisdom for us as we try to be God's ambassadors in this role.

Once again the PCC extends its grateful thanks to those who give so generously of their time to help with the upkeep
of the Church both inside 3nd outside.. the Holy Dusters. Flower Arrangers and Maintenance Team. who all make a
huge contribution to the life of our church. The teams of welcomers and Sidespeople continue to show the warm
and friendly face of the church when greeting regular worshippers, new members, visitors, and those attending
baptism services.
We give thanks to God for every spiritual blessing in Christ as we go forward in his strength and under his protection
to proclaim our mission of "Making Je5U5 Known" in every area of church life at Bispham and beyond in 2024.

CHURCHWARDENS, FABRIC REPORT
We had the Quinquennial visit this year, and a report has been submitted by Steve Fish, Architect from the Diocese who
found the church to be in good order. We are continuing lo address issues raised according to prioyitv.
We hopefully have solved the problem of water ingress in the Vestry following visits and advice from builders who have
suggested that pointing of the coping stones on top of the vestry roof would solve the problem. We hope to do thi5
work in-house when the weather improves.
STABLE
In-house work on the roof to replace the broken tiles appear to have resolved the damp patches.
BARN
A new thermostat has been installed and this has helped with the heating of the Barn and hopefully this will be more
efficient as the temperature can now be set.
89 ASHFIELD ROAD
Following the retirement of Rev Jim Crawford at the end of january 2023, the property became vacant, and the PCC
decided to let it on a short term tenancy. The property was occupied from June but various issues regarding the tenancy
arose toward5 the end of the year, and these are currently being addressed.
CHURCHYARDS
The Church graveyard and Graveyard C are being well maintained by Ja50n and Anthony but following cuts we have had
to make, from 2024 Jason will be taking on the job of both graveyards. Nathan, our Sexton, and Garry have been
overseeing the cutting of the boundary hedge and tidying up graveyard C. Some trees need pruning, and we have to
seek permission from Blackpool Council in order for this work to be carried ovt.
Our grateful thank5 go out to everyone who have been involved in the smooth running of our church over this past year
and to those who give of their time to our many church organisations.

Financial review
2023 has been a year of familiarising ourselves with the My Fund Accounting System and at the same time dealing with
many changes in our finances. It has been necessary to gain a more in-depth insight into the accounting system to enable
us to input the less familiar changes which have occurred throughout the year.
Following the deficit of last year and the general increase in the costs of running Bispham All Hallows, a finante
subcommittee was Set up to look at income generation and cost reduction.
The following have been implemented-
SALE OF ENDOWMENTS
The Diocese approved the sale of 21 endowments which were earmarked for purpose and sold to the value of £22,200.
This money has been allocated to four fund5 $0 It can be used primarily to maintain the Church and Churchyard. Relieving
the pressure on our General Fund which is required for the day to day running of the church.
INVESTMENT OF FUNDS
Transfer of £27.500 of restricted money transferred to a Deposit Account (held at the Diocese). This accourbt is currently
earning 5.2% interest which is paid into our General Fund.
REDUCTION OF SALARIES
Salaries were negotiated with staff and agreed. Hours reduced by 25%.
CHURCH YARD MAINTENANCE

Maintenance costs.
A letter was also sent to current relatives of deceased in our churchyard asking for financial help for the upkeep of the
grave5.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL I'PCC'I. THE TRUSTEES OF ALL HALLOWS. BISPHAM
I report on the accounls Of the PCC for the year ended 31st December 2023 set out on page5 11 to 19.
Respective responsibilities of the PCC and the examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity'5 trustees consider that
an audit is not required for this year under section 144121 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an
independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to..
examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Acl,.
to follow the procedure5 laid down in the general Oirectioris given by the Charity Commission under
Section 14515llbl of the 2011 Act, and
to state whether particular matter5 have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
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 PCC 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 a5 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 Vie￿ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement
below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination. no matter has come to my attention=
which Elves me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements..
to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 130 of the 2011 Act- and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the requirements of the
2011 Act, and the Regulations have not been met,. or
to which. in my opinion. attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the
accounts to be reached.
