Churchwardons. report to the 2026 APCM We are so grateful for God's gracious provision this year- and to everyone who has given so much time and energy to keep things going during the interregnum. We would like in particularto thank our Clergy and staff team who have worked tirelessly to provide services, children's, activities, vrforship arKI pastoral support and to keep the administration, Church Centre and preschool funct5oning smoothly. As we reported last year. the arrival of Helen Baker, our Schools. Children, Young People and Families Worker, after several years of walting and praying, VRS a source of great lebratIon. Helen has been a tremendous blessing to us this year, supporting and buildlng up existing activities like the Youth Group and Messy Church, bullding close relationships wlth our two church schools and taking a leading role in the 9.30 Explore Service. Just as Helen arrived we heard that our Rector. John Beckett, and wife Ruth would be leaving in June so that Ruth could take up har first parish in North Devon and John could start to think about retirement. After a farewell lunch in the Church, a fitting reminder of John's achievement of leading the reordering 80 that we could use our beautiful Church building flexibly for all kinds of activities, we launched immediately into the process of seeking John's successor. Wlth excellent support from our patrons, CPAS and the Diocese the PCC consulted the congregation, had a vision evening with Bishop James and prepared a parish profile ready for the role to be advertised in September. We were disappointed and disconcerted that the Diocese and CPAS did not consider there was a suitable field of candidates after the first round of advertising. However, w8 were delighted and very grateful for God's wonderful provision that Rev Stephen Yates, a fomer curate. felt called to apply and was appointed from a strong field of candidates in February of thls year. We are looking forward with excltement to the next chapter of the Church's Ilfe with Stephen leading us. Inevltably the workload of our amazing clergy and staff team, Paul.Claire Helen and Dallas, supported by Pere in the offic8, increased very significantly after John's departure. Thanks to thelr ministry and preaching support from others including Andrew Green and retired clergy we were able to maintain our normal pattem of 3 Sunday services: 8am Communion. 9.30 infomal Explore and 11 am Communion or Morning Worship, with an evenlng service with strong youth participation once a month. The workload increased even more when cla5 was appointed to her first parish in Okehampton in December. We are delighted for her that she has been called to such an exciting role with slrong focus on outreach to schools in particular. Paul, Dallas and Helen led a packed programme of school, community and Church services over the Christmas period and it was lovely to see lots of new faces in Church. Against the backdrop of these big changes parish life continued and thrived as can be seen from the reports of the many groups represented in the supplemental annual report. We should particularly mention: -The amazing programme of events over the summer, spearheaded by Rob Newman and the Friends of St Matthias. to raise money under the Church of England 'Give to Green, initiative. ANNUAL CHURCH MEETING MAY 2026 Page 10
With the benefit of match funding a total of over £17,000 was raised for green projects Including batteries and low energy lighting for the church. -The youth group. led by Helen. Ali and Claire continued to draw young people. mostly not from Church backgrounds, for games. mad activities and to hear about Jesus. A group had an exciting time at Spree, a large weekend camp at Devon County Showground. Housegroups meeting at different times throughoLrt the week, to leam together, pray and support one another and enjoy fellowship together. -coming together for a Lent Course celebrating and leaming from different strands and traditions within the church. -welcome Space providing light lunch, companionship and conversation every Wednesday -coffee Box monthly outreach on the piazza from April to September connecting to the Wellswood Community and the many parents collecting children from sessions in the Church Centre. -A church barbecue at Dawlish Warren, with new heights of sandcastle building. -Another very enjoyable Tear Fund Quiz in November. -A varled programme of events organised by the Friends Including a very successful Christmas market. The purpose of all our activities is summarised In our three priorities.. to worship God, make disciples and transform communities. Unless God is at the heart of what we do it has no value. But the amazing thing about St Matthias, as about every local church, is that God takes and shapes a seemingly random collection of people to be a Ilvlng temple to His Glory. What a wonderful God we worshipl Cheryl and Clare, Churchwardens Report of the Meetlngs of Deanery Synod Your lay representatlves a Jeremy Asplnall, David Hodson anij David Wilkinson. who is also Deanery Secretary and so ex-officio.

Sam Leach. Rector of St Mags, Torquay used John 142 'in my Father's house there are many rooms, to explain that St Mags is a "Jesus Centred. Grace filled, Kingdom living Community., and their vision for the Bay and all the communities we live in. is that all can experience"Jesus'. Full Life forALL'. Sam explained Ihat St Mags had created a number of 'Rooms'_ space5 for people. Everything that wa5 done at St Mags was to serve Christ and to welcome everyone - without judgement. Those 'Rooms' included The Living Room, Wash Room, Play Room, Children and Youth Room, Recovery Room, Prayer Room, Store R¢)om. The Living Room is a place of welcome, dignity and warmth; clothing, haircuts and washing facilities are available; 60- 90 people are fed twice weekly., hot drinks and prayer are available and there is a welcome for everyone. There can be as many as 27 volunteers. including some from other churches. As well as the support given by St Mags there is signposting to other agencies. There is a discipleship programme and a 12-step programme towards recovery. The DNA of the church changes as people stand together in the presence of Christ.

Apart from the General Fund balance of £111,581 (£112015 for 2024), the other significant fund represented on the Balance Sheet is the amount of money in the Restricted Fund for the Youth and Children's Leader, which changed from £51,472 in 2024 to £45,366 at the end of 2025.

As In previous years, we paid our Common Fund contribution to the Diocese in full. which was £90.4k and our CharY & Mlssion Glvlng, also included in Church expenditure, was £14.5k. The net result was a deficit of £(9.2)k over the year between church income and expenditure. Church Centre Income from hirers was £46.4k compared wlth £44.7k in 2024 (being £59.7k less the internal rent charge of £15k from Preschool).

Overall. there was a net surplus of £1.7k for the year. Preschool Preschool income, comprising Earfy Years funding from our local Council and payments from parents for additional sessions, increased slightly to £173k (2024 £172k). However, staffing costs rose to £131.7k (2024 £119.1k) as extra staff were engaged to cover the care of two-year olds and work started on the plan to provide extra facilities in the outdoor play area costing £8.2k. These We the main expenses which resulted in an increase in the overall expenditure figure of £22k to £165.9k.

I vrfould particularfy like to thank Trudy Guy, our book keeper for all of the accounts administration tasks, including payroll, invoice payments and gift ald claims. Also, Sylvia Barratt, who continued to manage the 'Statutory Account, covering fees for weddings and funerals held in the church, the funds for which are handled via a separate bank account. The figures only include the portion that PCC retain, the rest are agency fees- collected on behalf of someone else. so not included within Income. The accounting rules we follow are such that we are not reqUId to include these details in the published accounts but they do have to be submitted to our Independent Examiner and so are covered in the approval statement. Not least of all, I vmuld like to thank all our church members for their continued financlal support during the year. For 2026, we have to meet large increases in our Common Fund contribution and other church costs and so should aim to be generous in our giving as an act of worshiping our God the Provider.

Matthias Church Centre was built Sn 1985186 at a cost of £198,629 and the extenslon to it was subsequently built at a cost of £146,355. During 2010 an extension to the Pine Room was constructed at a cost of £98,266. All these amounts have been written off as expended and, consequently, rK) depreciation Is required. Expenditure on Church Centre fumiture and equipment is written off as incurred. Depreciation of the fittings for solar panels on the Church cent roof will be charged in the year that the panels are installed. 3. Debtors Debtors and creditors wSth no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure. 4. Contingent Llabllltles There are no contlngent liabilities of which the PCC is aware. S. Payments to PCC members No member of the PCC received any salary or expenses in connection wlth their role on the PCC. 6. Staff Salaries I Payments Four staff were employed by the Churchlchurch Centre, gross salaries paid out during the year being £55.350. Seven staff were employed by the Pre-school, gross sa18ries paid out during the year being £131,672. Pension contrlbutions on behalf of nine ellgible employees wer6 paid to th8 Church Wort(ers Penslon Fund (CWPF) In line with current UK Pension legislation (included in the salary figures above). St. Matthlas particlpates in the Pension Builder Classic Scheme section of CWPF for lay stsff. CWPF is administered by the Church of England Pensions Board, which holds the CWPF assets separately from those of the Employer and other participatlng employers. CWPF has two sections: the Defined Benefits Scheme the Pension Builder Scheme, which has two subsections. o a deferred annuity section known as Pension Builder Classlc, and, o a cash balance section known as Pension Builder 2014. Pension Builder Scheme Bolh sectlons of the Pension Builder Scheme are classed as defined benefit schemes. Pension Builder Classic provides a pension, accumulated from contrlbutions paid and converted Into a deferred annuity during employment based on terms set and reviewed by the Church of ANNUAL CHURCH MEETING MAY2026 Page 16
England Pensions Board from time to time. Discretionary increases may also be added, depending on investment retums and other factors. Pension Builder 2014 is a cash balance scheme that provides a lump sum which members use to provide benefits at retirement. Pension contrlbutions are recorded in an account for each member. Discretionary bonuses may be added before retirement. depending on investment retums and other factors. The account, plus any bonuses declared is payable, unreduced. from age 65. There is no sub-division of assets between employers in each section of the Pension Builder Scheme. The scheme is considered to be a multi-employ8r scheme as described in Section 28 of FRS 102. This is because it is not possible to attribute the Pension Builder Scheme's assets and liabilrties to specific employers and means that contributions are accounted for as If the Scheme were a defined contribution scheme. The pensions costs charged to the SOFA Irb the year are the contributions payable (2025.. £7,998. 2024: £ 11,372). A valuatlon of the Pension Builder Scheme Is carried out once every three years. The most recent valuation was carried out as at 31 December 2022. For the Pension Builder Classic section, the valuation revealed a surplus of £34.8m on the ongoing assumptions used. At the most recent annual review effective 1 January 2026, the Board chose to grant a discretionary bonus of lo° to both pensions not yet in payment and pensions in payment in respect of service prior to April 1997; and a bonus on pensions in payment in respect of post April 1997 Service so that the penslon increase was also 100/0 (where usually it would be calculated based on inflatlon up to an annual cap of 5 % for pensions in payment In respect of service prior to April 2006 and 2.5 % for pensions in payment in respect of service post Aprll 2006). This followed improvements in the funding position over 2025. For th6 Pension Bullder 2014 section, the valuation revealed a surplus of £8.5m on the ongoing assumptions used. There is no requirement for deficit payments at the current time. The next valuation is due as at 31 December 2025. The legal structure of the scheme is such that if another employer fails. St. Matthlas could become responsible for paying a share of the falled employer's pension liabilities. The number of employees whose total employee benefits fell within the £10,000- £60,000 band was O. 7. Funding from Friends of St Matthias During the year the Frlends of St Matthias, a charity set up for the sole purpose of supporting the church via the fundlng of various works, contributed £39,733 for the cost of replacing the Church Centre roof and repairs to the South Transept roof. 8. Income and Expenditure- Details Pages 21-24 show a categorised breakdown of all income and expendlture with comparative figures for 2024. 9. Reserves Policy It is a requirement of the Charity Cornmission that all registered charities should have a Reserves Policy. designed to cater for the ongoing viability of the organisation in the event of unplannedlunexpected circumstances arising. Our policy is now based on retaining 3 months, nomial expenditure made up from items considered to be essential in the event of unexpected circumstances preventing us from running one or more of the three individual entities that comprise the St Matthias Church registered charity. The amount that has been calculated for this purpose, including an appmprlate amount for contingency purposes, is £65k-70k. ANNUAL CHURCH MEETING MAY2026 Poge 17
