Objectives and Activities
St Clement's PCC has the responsibility of co-operatrng, during the interregnum. wrth the Archdeacon and
other clergy in the parish in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church, pastoral.
evangelistic, social. ecumenical and the Diocesan mission action plan. It also has maintenance
responsibilities for the Parish Church, Branch Church. Parish Hall and the Curacy house.
Achievements and Perforniance
Review ol thg Ygor
Sl Clemenl's P.C.C. met 4 times with an average attendance of 76% . Regular meetings were restarted from
June 2021 following the suspension during the lockdowns. There were many discussions about reinstating

events and activities that had been suspended last year. Services had continued to be held in the Parish
Church throughout bul with many changes to remain covid safe. From September most of these changes
were lifted and services were also resumed at the Branch Church. Also from the summer the regular hirers
returned lo the Pansh Hall and Branch Church and community events were brought back, gradually al first.
Some of the outstanding maintenance concems were dea51 with including upgrading the lighting both inside
and outside the Parish Church.. repairs to the heating controls at the Parish Church, and repairs lo the
electrical system and chimney stack at the curacy house.
We are sbll in interregnum. At the beginning of the year Archdeacon Karen Lund informed us that dis¢u5sions
were ongoing with a local vicar for him to be part-time al Si Clement's as well as his existing parish. This
proposal did not come lo fruition. The diocese is reviewing all aspects of how rnission and ministy are
delivered and clergy deployed and there will be no changes or appointments until this is complete.
We have gradually ￿Stsrted our connections with the community. Our Wednesday Welcome Mornings and
the Trafford Walking for Health Group restarted in 2021 and atthough numbers attending have not yet reached
the pre-pandemic levels they are growing. Several other events have been organised and have proved very
popular with church members and with people who do not attend our services. We were planning to host our
many carol services for schools and scouls this Christmas but a huge surge in eovid cases In December
meant most of them were cancelled.
Sl Clement's has complied with the duty under section 5 of the safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure
2016 to adopl"A Safe Church Policy. and "A Vulnerable child and Adult Policy" these will be re-affirmed al the
A.P.C.M. In 2022. We also need to be aware of how quickly the media is changing people's perception of our
responsibilities and we need to be extremely carefvl what is pul on social nEdia in the church's name.
FITnaneial Review
Total receipts for 2021 were £54.950 and payments were £64,858. as shown on the financial statements We
paid less than 500/0 of our parish share. The year stsrted badly for our finances but the second half of the year
w8s much better with income from letknngs and events comparable with 2019 levels. We buy electricity and
gas for the Parish Church. Pansh Hall and Branch Church on fixed price contracts. In the autumn of 2021 we
were able to extend the gas contract until 2027 at prices that were fixed before wholesale gas priees rose
substsntially in the winter of 2021r2022.
The YearAhead
We end the year with optimism for the year ahead. Covid is still an issue but restrictions are lifting and there is
much enthusiasm in church for geth.ng on with things. If the acty.vity levels of the second half of 2021 continue
throughout 2022 then we will end the next year in much better condrtion than since 2019 We are somewhat
held back by not having a vicar or priest in charge yet but now that the new deanery is in plaee and the
mission communities being fomei1 there will be new developments in the deplOy￿Ent of clergy across the
diocese.
Still on the agenda are the major renovats.ons to the final part of the east roof, the repairs needed to the rose
window. and plans for an accessible toilet and improved kitehen facilities. The Interior lighting has been
improved and work on the north aisle floor is underway- these were outstanding Items in last year's report..
The church will remain on the-al risk" register until the major renovations are wmpleted.
Stru¢lure, Governance and Management
The method of appointment of PCC members is sel out in the Church Representation Rules 2020. All Church
attendees are encouraged to register on the Elecloral Roll and stand for election to the PCC. From lime to
time members of the PCC attend training events relevant to their duties organised by the Diocese of
