Gracious Father, we pray for your Church. Fill it with your truth, keep it in your peace and unite it in your love, through Jesus Christ our Saviour. Amen

St Mary’s is a Church of England (Anglican) Church serving the Parish of Beddington. We are in the Reigate Episcopal area of the Diocese of Southwark, and within Sutton Deanery.

Aims and purposes

St Mary's Parochial Church Council (PCC) has the responsibility of cooperating with the Rector, the Reverend Andrew Fenby, in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church - pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical.

Our aim is to proclaim God's greatness in all that we do as a community and as individuals and to rejoice in God's saving love for the world revealed in Jesus Christ.

At St Mary’s we welcome people of all ages, backgrounds and experiences. We embrace the diversity of God’s children and give thanks for all that we can learn about God from each other as we walk together on our journeys of faith.

We believe that God calls us to love not to judge. He meets each of us where we are in our lives and we hope to model His unconditional welcome in our worshipping community.

We are committed to opening our arms to all God’s people regardless of, for example, age, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, marital or family status, ethnicity, race, colour, nationality, cultural origin, religion, disability, experience of mental distress, HIV status, caring responsibility, class, education, employment status, political belief or criminal conviction.

Structure, Governance and Management

St Mary's Parochial Church Council (PCC) is a corporate body established by the Church of England. It operates under the Parochial Church Council Powers Measure. The PCC is a registered charity of which all members are trustees.

It comprises lay persons, elected at the Annual Parish Meeting, who together with the incumbent, licensed clergy, the churchwardens, ex officio and co-opted members (if any), are responsible for the initiation, conduct and development of the Church’s work within the parish, and outside, whereby the whole mission of the Church is promoted.

The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. All members of the congregation are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the PCC.

Objectives and Activities

The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our church and to become part of our parish community. We are an inclusive, friendly church and welcome people of all ages, backgrounds and experiences. We embrace the diversity of God's children and give thanks for all that we can learn of God from each other as we walk together on our journeys of faith.

The PCC held seven meetings in the year. Other matters arose between these meetings which required PCC consultation/approval and this took place via email on a further three occasions.

Achievements

National Lottery Heritage Fund

Following completion of the structural repairs, 2022 was the year in which St Mary’s launched its programme for the community engagement part of the NLHF grant. A programme of events was organised, we had employed an Activity Fund Co-ordinator

Page 5 of 13

(Philippa Mesiano) in 2021 to help plan and run these events for us. These results have meant that not only have we fulfilled the requirements set by the Lottery Fund, but we have also made numerous links with schools, societies and also our local and wider community. A very busy but exciting year.

January We commissioned a local illustrator to create a St Mary’s mascot based on
the corgi displayed in one of our stained-glass windows. Our mascot is
named Caleb the Corgi (Cali for short). We have a number of illustrations
with Cali in a variety of poses that we can use on promotional materials.
February An innovative Light and Sound Show was devised and staged by students
from the BRIT School in Croydon. It was an immersive experience that
blended the history of St Mary’s with the artistic vision of the students. The
event took place over a number of days and was well received by those who
attended.
March/April A series of four conducted tours of the church under the title ‘Before the
Victorians’ were organised and led by John Phillips of the Carshalton and
District History and Archaeology Society
May Local artist Pia Jaime was employed to run three art workshops. As part of
this she was commissioned to produce a collaborative piece of cyanotype
artwork based on the church interior and churchyard greenery.
We ran a Tudor Day which included art and activities based on the Carew
family and their links to the Tudor kings and queens.
June A ‘Wildflower Festival’ took place which celebrated local wildflowers through
flower displays and workshop activities for all age groups.
July We ran a Roman day, inspired by our Roman lead coffin, with workshop
activities and a talk by local historian, John Phillips
September A paint workshop which aimed to explore mediaeval pigments and painting
techniques was run for adults. During the session they learned about
traditional pigments, tools and paper used in mediaeval times.
Our monumental brasses were revealed for the London Open House Event.
A Stone Carving Workshop took place which showed visitors the traditional
methods of stone carving. The workshop was led by Traditional Stone Ltd
who carried out the structural repairs to the tower.
October In collaboration with the church, Sutton Writers group became a partner in
our Creative Writing project. As part of this project they ran a series of
writing workshops for adults. An anthology of writing produced both in the
workshops and through the church and Sutton Writers group is planned to
be published in 2023. A children’s writing workshop was led by Joe
Hargreaves (a young writer from our congregation) which focused on
storyboarding.

Throughout the 2022 programme ongoing research took place highlighting the historical connection between St Mary’s and the Royal Female Orphan Asylum at Carew Manor from 1866 to 1939. This culminated in an exhibition at Honeywood Museum and then Sutton Central Library. As part of this project we teamed up with Carew Academy to raise funds for a new interpretation panel to be erected in the extension churchyard (installation 2023) to support the existing but much worn memorial stone to girls who died whilst at the orphanage.

To help us fund our required contribution to the NLHF grant, we were delighted to receive a grant of £10,000 from The National Churches Heritage Fund.

Worship and Services

After two extraordinary years in the history of St Mary’s because of COVID-19, 2022 has been one of slow rebuilding and return. We started 2022 still operating under some pandemic restrictions: by the end of the year all these were gone and we were able to offer something close to our pre-COVID pattern of worship.

The main focus of our regular worship continued to be the Sunday 9:30 Sung Eucharist, the best attended of our regular services. Choral Evensong was sung weekly during school term time, a pattern now unusual in parish churches, and attracted a small but dedicated congregation. Having been running once a month for some time this year, the eight o’clock Said Mass became once again weekly in October.

We were delighted to welcome back this year the officers and young people of the Sutton Sea Cadets who joined us for morning services on Sea Sunday and Harvest Festival. On September 18 we joined the country in mourning with a Sung Requiem at St Mary’s in memory of the late Queen Elizabeth II.

Sixteen children and two adults were welcomed into Christ’s Church through the sacrament of baptism at St Mary’s in 2022, and there was also one first communion. Six couples were married here, and there was one funeral in church and one burial of ashes in the churchyard.

Sunday Club

The Sunday Club of St. Mary's was vibrant and lively in 2022, brimming with excitement and joy. We gathered together to share our love for the Bible, relishing in the tales and wisdom within its pages. Our hands were constantly busy with crafting activities, and our spirits soared as we played games with one another.

And it wasn't just the regulars who made our club special. Throughout the year, we warmly welcomed new families into our midst, embracing them with open hearts and open arms. It was a year of growth, of connection, and of cherished memories.

Mondays @ St Mary’s

The group continues to meet via Zoom on Monday evenings, to read and study the Bible, share and discuss ideas raised and pray for the parish and the world. Meeting via Zoom enables members of the group who travel abroad and spend time in other locations to still be able to participate in sessions and stay connected. During Lent the group used the meditations and questions posed in Stephen Cottrell's book "The Things He Carried" as a Lent Study and preparation for Easter.

Vocation

Alison Hargreaves has completed her Reader Ministry training at St Augustine's college and was licensed at Southwark Cathedral in October 2022. She is now a Reader at St Mary's Church.

Pastoral Care

Pastoral care roles are taken on by Alison (Reader) and Maud (SPA). Home communions are given by Father Andrew, Alison and Maud. Those on our Prayer List are prayed for during Morning Prayer and at the Wednesday morning Eucharist.

Eco Church

The Church of England has embraced the urgent need for action against climate crisis and has pledged to become net-zero by 2030. Eco Church is a scheme for churches to demonstrate and improve upon how they are caring for God’s earth in five key areas of church life:

To that end, St Mary’s set up an Environment Working Group to work towards reduced carbon emissions.

After undertaking the Eco Church audit, also incorporating the CoE’s ‘A practical path to “net zero carbon” for our churches’ checklist, a comprehensive action plan was drawn up detailing the measures that needed attention. Work on these measures began in earnest in 2022 with regular reviews of progress and reports back to the PCC. The congregation were engaged in the project with a display in late 2022 highlighting what Eco Church is, what actions St Mary’s has taken to date and plan to do in the future to reduce carbon emissions. A resource pack was produced showing how they as individuals can lower their individual carbon emissions. It is hopeful that 2023 will see the church in a position to apply for a Bronze Award.

Social Activities and Fundraising

The Tower Coffee Shop

The Tower Coffee Shop continued to be a big success in 2022. A core group of regular volunteers help to run it on a daily basis. However, new volunteers are always needed. A decision was made to extend the opening days so that it now opens from Tuesday to Saturday every week (except days on which church activities occur). At the end of 2022, the PCC agreed to employ a manager to manage the day to day running of the coffee shop and to provide cover when other volunteers are unable to work their shift. The coffee shop has become an excellent way of engaging with the local and wider community, with more and more people attending month on month. As a result, we have managed to create links with local schools (Carew Academy and Sherwood Park) with groups of pupils volunteering and also using the coffee shop to learn life skills. It has proved to be an important source of revenue for church funds.

Other Activities

It was so good to hold other social activities again. David Harvey and Richard Price planned a Flute, Saxophone and Piano recital for 17 July, only to be thwarted by the extreme temperatures experienced during the summer. They were finally able to make a much cooler appearance in October. A selection of Midsummer Melodies was sung by the Upland Singers in August and the Alfred and Salamanda Saxophone Quartet were welcomed back in December. All performances were well-received, as were the cream teas that followed.

Last but not least, 2022 saw the return of our Frost Fair which had been sadly missed for the two previous years. A highly successful day and a welcome boost to church finances. The Frost Fair involves a lot of hard work, most of which provided by the Atkins family. Thank you so much.

Men's Group

The Men's Group continued with their twice monthly meetings for breakfasts and evening meals. To offset some of the calories various walks took place, usually taking about four hours, but with the prize of a pub lunch at the end.

The group were delighted to have a private guided tour of the work taking place on the HS2 rail link site (which happens to be one of the group member’s place of work) – it was a very interesting day out.

Ladies are welcome on these trips. Anyone wishing to join the group should speak with Ian Atkins.

Performance

Attendance

Attendance at services through the year has slowly stabilised to something like a half to two thirds of numbers that we saw before the pandemic, with just over a hundred worshippers on Easter Sunday and two hundred on Christmas Eve/Day 2022 .

Electoral Roll

There were 99 people on the Electoral Roll, 53 of whom were not resident in the parish.

Confirmations

On the feast of Christ the King in November St Mary’s hosted the Sutton Deanery Confirmation service, with twenty-four candidates from churches throughout the Deanery (including six from St Mary’s) confirmed by the Rt Revd Bishop Peter Price.

Deanery Synod

St Mary’s can elect three lay members to sit on the Deanery Synod. Representation on the synod provides the PCC with an important link between the parish and the wider structures of the church. The Deanery Synod meetings are the formal gatherings which focus on the mission and ministry in our area (the London Borough of Sutton) and are times when through presentations, discussion and debate the parishes can share information, work together and support each other in issues that matter to the worshipping community. The Diocese is keen to encourage the development of deanery leadership teams, to provide more opportunities for local lay leaders to work in partnership with each other and with clergy to develop local initiatives for their communities and support the Diocesan growth objectives.

In 2022 there were three meetings, all held at The Church of the Good Shepherd, Carshalton. The main topics for discussion were: ‘The Cost of Living Crisis’, ‘What should Deanery Synod be?’, ‘Putting Faith into Action’, and ‘Why Bother as a Church?’. Full details of the interesting conversations that took place at the meetings can be found in the separate Deanery Synod Report.

Music and Choirs

The choir's performance during the past year has been commendable. Their dedication to St Mary’s is shown in the countless hours of practice they spend attending choir practice, learning new pieces and improving their musical skills to perfect their performances. The choir regularly sings at Sunday services, weddings and funerals.

Page 9 of 13

Additionally, it's worth mentioning that the St Mary's Church Choir has welcomed new members to both the trebles and back row sections over the past year.

The choir's leadership has played a significant rôle in its success. Pam Akhurst, the choir director, has done an excellent job of selecting appropriate music, teaching new songs, and leading rehearsals. It is also important to recognise the contribution of David Moore, St Mary's Church organist, whose exceptional talent for playing the organ has supported the choir in their singing and provided the congregation with beautiful and uplifting voluntaries at the conclusion of worship.

Choir performances have always been well-received and much appreciated by the congregation and visitors in enhancing the worship experience at St Marys.

Tower Bellringers

Ringing in 2022 started in late January after the scaffolding from the Tower building work had been removed.

2022 was a year of beginning to rebuild the bell ringing band, three new recruits were gained as well as some interested parties who ultimately did not take to ringing.

Learning to handle and ring bells is a lifelong learning experience, which some find easy and others not so. This was certainly the experience of the Beddington band during 2022.

A highlight of the year was ringing half muffled for the passing of Queen Elizabeth II and for her funeral. This was a very moving experience for all involved.

There are seven ringers to ring ten bells. We are continuing to recruit and teach, and look forward to welcoming more potential ringers in 2023.

Outreach and Communications

St Mary's Helping Hands WhatsApp Group

This group was created when we went into lock down in 2020 as a way of offering support to people during this time. It has continued to link members of the congregation and the wider community and offers a useful communication stream between the church and the community. The site is monitored to ensure a safe environment (only people over 18 are invited to join).

St Mary's Quiz Sessions

A fortnightly quiz session was set up during 2020 and has continued through 2021 and 2022. The group benefits from keeping in touch and keeping up morale. The sessions are light-hearted and popular with lots of fun, encouraging our well-being. All are welcome.

St Mary's Book Club

This was started towards the end of 2021 and has continued through 2022. It meets weekly on a Tuesday evening on Zoom. Members have taken turns in choosing books from different genres, alternating between books concerning aspects of faith and books that have themes of inclusion and diversity. So far at least 16 books have been read. This is open to everyone and is an inclusive group – there is no pressure to join in discussions if people simply want to read and listen to the thoughts of others. Good fun.

Quiet @St Mary’s

This service to the community continued to provide opportunities on the third Thursday of the month for people to experience the peace and beauty of St Mary's and to partake in various quiet activities located around the church including walking the St Mary's canvas Labyrinth in the Centre.

Classes from Carew Academy and classes of wheelchair user students, their teachers and carers from Sherwood Park School continue to be welcomed. There are also regular visits from a group from the Params care home in Purley. All seemed to enjoy their time engaging with the various activities and enjoying the delicious cakes served at the Tower Coffee shop.

The Quiet @ St Mary's team look forward to welcoming more people to the labyrinth and other Quiet activities in 2023.

Toddlers @ St Mary’s

Toddlers @ St Mary's re-started in October 2022. It has been most successful and well attended by parents and toddlers. It is run by three volunteers and Father Andrew plays his guitar during a singing session. More volunteers would be welcomed. Contributions are made and the money used for refreshments and updating the equipment.

Schools

Links with the local schools have been maintained – Carew Academy, Sherwood Park, Beddington Infants, Beddington Primary School, Wallington County Grammar School and The Link. Christmas services took place during the last week of term. Children from Sherwood Park School visit during the week and some classes have used the labyrinth whilst others have learnt some life skills while visiting during the Coffee Shop hours. A closer link with the schools, with visits to them, are planned.

Social Media

Our website www.stmarysbeddington.org.uk , St Mary's Facebook and The Tower Coffee Shop Facebook pages were regularly updated with services, events and other relevant information. These are all valuable links in engaging with the wider community. 2023 will see an updated website which will be more user friendly. This work is being done inhouse so will be cost free. A Twitter account was also set up.

Mission and Charitable Giving

A regular annual donation of £1,100 was made to the United Society for the Propagation of the Gospel. We are a Fair Trade church.

Ecumenical relationships

The church is a member of Churches Together in Beddington and Wallington (CTBW).

Thanks

As with most other churches, St Mary’s would cease to be the place it is if not for the tireless effort of all our volunteers - flower arrangers, sidespeople, servers, coffee and tea makers, helpers in children’s ministry and at diversity events, church cleaners, and volunteers running The Tower Coffee Shop. It is not possible to name you all, but be assured no matter what is offered, every bit of help is received with our most grateful thanks.

Fabric/Churchwardens’ Report

The Archdeacon's annual visitation took place on April 28th with the assistant area dean, Nicholas Peacock attending. The Articles of Enquiry were submitted. All went well.

The end of year accounts show that the cost of regular repairs and maintenance to the fabric and contents of the building, together with the upkeep of the churchyards, was £12,402. In addition to this, running costs covering insurance, electricity, gas and water amounted to £14,910.

The fabric of the building is generally in good condition, and we have now completed the major works on the West Tower which were highlighted in our Quinquennial Report. The money for this was awarded to us through the National Heritage Lottery Fund. Our next Quinquennial will take place in 2023.

Further details of works carried out during the year can be found in the separate Churchwardens' Report.

Financial review

Reserves Policy

The PCC’s reserves policy, in accordance with diocesan guidelines, is to maintain a balance on free reserves of three months running costs plus an additional one month’s salary costs to cover unforeseen emergencies and smooth out fluctuations in cash flow. The Designated Funds for Building Maintenance and Organ Repairs hold reserves at £1,147 and £15,660 respectively. It had proved difficult to replenish the money drawn down in 2021 from the Building Maintenance fund, but it hoped to address this in 2023. The Designated Funds are considered both prudent and essential. The cost of routine and modest building maintenance is met from our available unrestricted funds, but we are mindful that with a building of the age and importance of St Mary’s, the likelihood of exceptional and extensive repair is ever present and forward planning is needed.

It is our policy to invest the short-term investment fund balances with the CCLA Church of England Deposit Fund.

The PCC is responsible for all parish finance, its management and control, and a treasurer is usually appointed to manage this area. However, when our treasurer stood down at the 2021 APCM, finding a replacement proved impossible. The PCC therefore agreed to split the duties of the treasurer between several volunteers. A titular treasurer is however required in certain circumstances and whilst the title fell to Judy Page, the running of the accounts is effectively through members of the Finance Committee.

In preparing the financial statements the PCC, through the Finance Committee, is required to:

Total receipts on unrestricted funds were £260,176 of which £42,302 was unrestricted planned voluntary donations.

Finance Committee Report

Year ending 31 December 2022

The Financial Statements have been examined by Robert Cunningham our Independent Examiner.

Total funds at year end 2022 amounted to £107,253 of which £2,788 were in restricted funds. Total funds at year end 2021 were £55,720.

Total income was up by £116,333. (Increase due to NLHF reimbursement, anonymous donation, tax recoverable and one-off grants.)

Total expenditure increased by £45,737. Main items of expenditure included £74,123 for the repair and restoration of the Tower, and £35,840 spent on community engagement activities related to the National Lottery Heritage Fund grant. However, £120,730 was reimbursed by the NLHF and £31,076 was reclaimed as VAT.

Notes on other income

A very generous gift of £15,000 and a legacy of £1,000 were received as well as a £10,000 grant from The National Churches Heritage Fund.

Tax recoverable on Gift Aid was up by £12,832 as a result of catching up with claims for 2021 & 2022.

Post Covid, an increased number of weddings took place in 2022, thus fees for weddings and funerals increased from £3,429 in 2021 to £9,706 in 2022. This increase also reflected the transfer into the Santander account of £3,410 from the Fees Account previously held in a separate bank.

Church hall lettings increased from £551 in 2021 to £1,328 in 2022.

The Tower Coffee Shop income rose to £16,194 in 2022, up from £13,393 in 2021, with associated running cost rising to £5,886 from £4,118 in 2021.

End of Year Financial Statements Year ending 31 December 2022

Introduction

Accounting Policies

The principal accounting policies are summarized below. The accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout the year.

Basis of Accounting

The financial statements of the PPC have been prepared in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 using the Receipts and Payments basis together with applicable accounting standards and the current Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting by Charities.

Fund Accounting

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the Trustees for particular purposes. Restricted funds are subject to restrictions on their expenditure by the donor or through the terms of an appeal.

Incoming Resources

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity is entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy.

Resources Expended

Expenditure is accounted for on a Receipts and Payments basis as a liability is incurred. Costs of generating funds comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income. Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. All costs are allocated on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource. Costs relating to a particular activity are allocated directly, others are apportioned on an appropriate basis.

Fixed Assets

Consecrated property which is the church building and moveable church furnishings are excluded from the accounts by virtue of s.1 Charities Act 20 II.
