INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT ON THE ACCOUNTS
This report on the financial statements of the PCC for the year ended 31 December 2021, which are set out on the following pages, is in respect of an examination carried out in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 ('the Regulations') and s.144 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
Respective Responsibilities of the PCC and the Examiner
As the members of the PCC you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements; you consider that the audit requirement of the Regulations and section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 does not apply. It is my responsibility to issue this report on those financial statements accounts in accordance with the terms of the Regulations. The gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Association of Charity Independent Examiners.
Basis of Independent Examiner's Report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145 (5) (b) of the Act and to be found in the Church Guidance, 2006 edition, issued from the Finance Division of the Archbishops' Council. That examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the PCC and a comparison of the accounts with those records. It also includes considering any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as 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 view' 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:
1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
● to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act; and
●to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the requirements of the Act, and the Regulations have not been met; or
2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

REVIEW OF THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
Vicar's Report
The life and activities of St Barnabas Church in 2021 continued to be affected by the Covid 19 pandemic. The year started with another lockdown and while worship continued in the building, the majority of the congregation joined in online. Work with children continued online at the start of the year and Feast of Fun continued during the Easter holidays with the delivery of hampers to families.
From April, Covid restrictions were lifted. Groups for children and young people began to start meeting in person. Mini Praise for babies and toddlers and their parents restarted. As part of Feast of Fun in August, Parklife holiday club was run in partnership with Big Kids, with some families present in the hall and others watching online with craft materials delivered to them. Those in the hall shared in a meal at the end of each session. An online Alpha was held in the autumn. An increase in Covid cases towards the end of the year affected some Christmas events, but a full programme of Christmas services was held, online and in person.
St Barnabas Mission Action Plan included a commitment to starting a new compassion ministry. During 2021 St Barnabas was approached by The Message Trust with a view to partnering in the opening of a Community Grocery. This was approved by the PCC and an agreement signed with The Message Trust.
It was agreed to continue working with Big Kids and start a new weekday group for 7-11s, Explore. Two trial events were held in November and December.
Hazel Murray continued as part-time student worker at Teesside University. Many students began to attend St Barnabas during the year, including many international students.
Financial Report
i. Unrestricted Funds
Our unrestricted funds (excluding designated funds and unrestricted fixed assets) showed a slight decrease in the year from a balance of £79,952 at the year start to a balance of £74,233 at the year end. This compares with a reserves target of £52,000, representing 10 weeks' expenditure. It should be noted that £10,000 of the Future Staffing Fund was used this year, which increased the year-end unrestricted fund by that amount. There was an increase in giving of a little over 10%.
Several areas of expenditure increased compared with the first year of the pandemic in 2020 as activities began to return to normal. The cost of staffing increased by 70% due to the expansion of the team.
ii. Designated Funds
The Development Fund (money from the sale of 64 Queen's Rd) remains at £41,570. It was not used during 2021, but is available for the development of the ministry of the church.
The Future Staffing fund was created to build up reserves to pay for new staff members. It currently stands at £10,114 after £10,000 was used to contribute towards the cost of the enlarged staff team.
iii. Restricted Funds
Income for the Jachie Eye Clinic in Ghana was received in the form of £4,616 raised at the Craft Aid event and £10,106 from donations. £7,464 of this was used to purchase a new operating microscope for the clinic, and £3,300 was sent to the clinic. Over the year the balance built from £3,027 to £6,985, and this was sent to the clinic in 2022.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31/12/21
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements of the PCC have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014, and with the Charities Act.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for the valuation of investment assets, which are shown at market value. 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.
FUNDS
Restricted Funds represent (a) income from trusts or endowments which may be extended only on those restricted objects provided in the terms of the trust or the bequest, and (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.
Unrestricted Funds are general funds which can be used for PCC ordinary purposes.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds set aside for specific purposes by the PCC.
Income and Endowments
Planned giving, collections and donations are recognised when received. Tax refunds are recognised when the incoming resource to which they relate are received. Grants and Legacies are accounted for when the PCC is legally entitled to the amounts due. 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.
Expenditure
Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over, or when awarded, if that award creates a binding obligation on the PCC. The diocesan quota or 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.
Fixed Assets
Consecrated and Beneficed property is excluded from the accounts by s.10(2) of the Charities Act 2011. No Value is placed on movable church furnishings held by the church wardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal since the PCC considers this to be inalienable property. All expenditure incurred during the year on consecrated or benefice buildings and movable church furnishings, whether maintenance or improvement, is written off as expenditure in the SOFA and separately disclosed.
Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight line basis over 10 years. Individual items of equipment with a purchase price of £1,000 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.
Investments are valued at market value at 31st December.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31/12/21 (CONT.)
Grants payable without performance conditions
These are only recognised in the accounts when a commitment has been made and there are no conditions to be met relating to a grant which remain in control of the charity.
Changes in Accounting policies and previous accounts
There has been no change to the accounting policies (variation rules and methods of accounting) since last year, and no changes to the previous accounts.
Basis of preparation:
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis of accounting in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 and in accordance with applicable accounting standards. In preparing the financial statements the charity follows best practice as laid down in the Statement of Recommended Practice "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" (SORP 2015) issued in July 2014.
Measurement of debtors and creditors
Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. The PCC has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts.

The annual commitments under non-cancelling operating leases and capital commitments are as follows:
In December 2016, the trustees agreed a 5 year lease with CF Corporate Finance for a photocopier and finisher at £330.00 per quarter. The amounts payable under the agreement are:
At 31[st] December 2020: £1,320
Notes : At 31[st] December 2021: £0 (last payment was November 2021)
(1) Freehold property at 1st January 2021 consisted of
(a) House at 23 Linden Grove, valued at cost (£6,587).
(b) Church hall and all land shown edged red and green on the title plans, valued by Andrew Argyle MA FRICS at £750,000.
(2) Depreciation is applied annually to all furniture, fixtures and fittings and equipment at 10% from the first year of their full use for 10 years. However, the depreciation on the assets purchased in 2018 (costing £11,507) was inadvertently omitted from the depreciation charge in each of 2019 and 2020 so 3 years of depreciation was charged in 2021.

|---|---|---|---|
Revd Dr David Goodhew and Revd Lindsey Goodhew received expenses.
A Bolton is trustee of Big Kids; The PCC have a Service Level Agreement at £10,000/year in place with Big Kids, under which they organize events for children and families. The PCC also made a £700 donation to Big Kids.
Revd L Goodhew is trustee of Together Middlesbrough and Cleveland; they provided grants totalling £4276 to enable the church to run Feast of Fun, an initiative to relieve holiday hunger, where food and activities are distributed to families, particularly vulnerable families. At the end of the year £213 remained unspent, and this will be returned to TMC. The PCC made a donation of £800 to TMC for core funding.
A donation of £3000 was received from the Lyndhurst Trust, of whom Revd L Goodhew is a trustee. This was specified to be for work with students and for evangelism.
14. RISK ASSESSMENT
The major risks to which the PCC is exposed have been reviewed and systems established to manage those risks. Risks are managed by the PCC and its sub committees, drawing on the expertise of other church members in such areas as building maintenance, health and safety and legal matters. The PCC has a policy on child protection, requiring all those involved in work with children to have DBS checks. Advice and further specialist expertise can be obtained from the diocese as required.
15. RESERVES POLICY
The reserves policy agreed in Dec. 2015 that at least 10 weeks' expenditure is needed for cash flow and contingency purposes remains unchanged. This is based on the church's size, the level of financial commitments, and the volatility in income and expenditure experienced in recent years. The trustees will endeavour not to set aside funds unnecessarily.
16. PUBLIC BENEFIT
The charity acknowledges its requirement to demonstrate clearly that it must have charitable purposes or ‘aims’ that are for the public benefit. Details of how the charity has achieved this are provided in the Trustees report. The Trustees confirm that they have paid due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit before deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

17. PENSION SCHEME
St Barnabas church participates in the Pension Builder Scheme section of Church Workers Pension Fund for lay staff. The Scheme is administered by the Church of England Pensions Board, which holds the assets of the schemes separately from those of the St Barnabas church and the other participating employers.
The Pension Builder Scheme of the Church Workers Pension Fund is made up of two sections - a deferred annuity section known as Pension Builder Classic and a cash balance section known as Pension Builder 2014. Both of which are classed as defined benefit schemes.
Pension Builder Classic provides a pension, accumulated from contributions paid and converted into a deferred annuity during employment based on terms set and reviewed by the Church of England Pensions Board from time to time. Discretionary increases may also be added, depending on investment returns 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 contributions are recorded in an account for each member. Discretionary bonuses may be added before retirement, depending on investment returns 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-employer 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 liabilities 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 in the year are the contributions payable (2021: £500)
A valuation of the Pension Builder Scheme is carried out once every three years. The most recent valuation was carried out as at 31 December 2019. The next valuation is due as at 31 December 2022.
For the Pension Builder Classic section, the valuation revealed a deficit of £4.8m on the ongoing assumptions used. At the most recent annual review, the Board chose to grant a discretionary bonus of 3% following improvements in the funding position over 2021. There is no requirement for deficit payments at the current time. For the Pension Builder 2014 section, the valuation revealed a surplus of £5.5m on the ongoing assumptions used. There is no requirement for deficit payments at the current time.
The legal structure of the scheme is such that if another employer fails, St Barnabas church could become responsible for paying a share of the failed employer’s pension liabilities.
