This is the only committee required by law. It has power to transact the business of the PCC between its meetings, subject to any directions given by the Council.

**1** 



## **St Peter's Church - Annual Report for 2025 (Continued)** 

## **Objectives and activities** 

The PCC has the responsibility of co-operating with the Incumbent in promoting the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church; pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. 

It also has maintenance responsibilities for the Church and the Crosskeys Community Hall. 

## _**Safeguarding**_ 

As a church we are committed to caring for all people safely.  The Parochial Church Council adopts the House of Bishops' policy statement Promoting a Safer Church.  Our safeguarding policy is reviewed by the PCC and re-affirmed at the APCM. At the APCM in 2024, Elisabeth Bryant was appointed as Parish Safeguarding Officer, Elisabeth Mitchell as DBS Administator, and Barbara Packer as Children and Vulnerable Adults Advocate.  In line with Newcastle diocesan policy, safeguarding policies and administration are managed through the use of the Parish Safeguarding Dashboard. 

## _**Church attendance**_ 

2025 saw a complete revision of the electoral roll.  There are 115 names on the new roll (164 on the previous). Usual Sunday attendance has increased slightly since 2024. Christmas services were particularly well attended. There has been a significant increase in the size of the total worshipping community, with a number of new members. During the year there were 2 marriages in Church (0 in 2024) and 14 funerals took place (10 in 2024) of which 8 were held in Church (5 in 2024). 11 baptisms took place in 2025 (2 in 2024). We also presented 6 candidates for confirmation at a service in St Peter's in July. 

## _**Review of the year**_ 

As the overview below indicates, 2025 has been a busy year in the life of the parish.  We were particularly delighted to celebrate with our curate, the Revd Francesca Walsh, as she was priested and presided at the eucharist for the first time at Petertide. It was a pleasure also to have Emily Emmerson-Finch, an ordinand from Lindisfarne College of Theology, on placement with us. During the year we have marked with sadness the deaths of retired Reader Anne Bartlett, and then in November, our reader and PCC member, Jan Porter. 

We continue to work with our neighbours at Billy Mill and Shiremoor to establish ministry for Murton Park. Ecumenical services were held for Good Friday, Remembrance and Christmas  together with 

St Andrew's URC and Monkseaton Methodists. A joint service was held for Christian Aid Week with St Andrew's URC, for which we welcomed a speaker from Christian Aid. 

We have been pleased to welcome Monkseaton High and Middle Schools, and Appletree Gardens and Langley First Schools into church in the year, for services, events and classroom visits. 

As the report below indicates we have undertaken further work on the fabric of the building, all of which is to serve making the church more welcoming and accessible.  The building remains generally open during daylight hours, and is well-used by the local community as well as by those who attend public worship here. 

## _**1. Worship**_ 

The main service of the week continues to be the Sunday 10am parish eucharist, with a said service of Holy Communion at 8.30am. During 2025 we took the decision to reduce Sunday evening prayer to usually once a month (last Sunday). Storybook Church meets in the afternoon on the second Sunday of the month. There is a midweek eucharist on a Wednesday morning, and Oasis meets fortnightly. A series of silent meditation and compline took place in the autumn. The principal feasts of the church are observed. 

A small number of parishioners receive holy communion at home regularly. 

Following consultation with the congregation, the PCC resolved to seek permission from the Bishop to admit baptised children to communion before confirmation, and this was granted. 

We have been pleased during the year to have some of our young people begin serving regularly at the parish eucharist. We note with particular appreciation the continued contribution of our choir to our worship. 

## _**2. Christian nurture**_ 

During 2025, we again offered joint programmes for Lent and Advent with St Paul's Whitley Bay, and St Mary's Monkseaton. We offered a study course in the parish exploring 'Ways of Praying', and a study morning exploring the Nicene Creed, with particular reference to 2025 being the 1700th anniversary of the Council of Nicaea, for which we also provided copies of the Church of Enfland's 'We Believe' booklet. During the year, Oasis has reflected on animals in the Bible, and on the saints to whom the parishes of the Tynemouth deanery are dedicated,

## **St Peter's Church - Annual Report for 2025 (Continued)** 

## _**3. Social, fundraising, and charitable giving**_ 

During the year, the St Peter's Women's Fellowship and Mothers' Union met regularly to fulfil their several purposes. Pebbles Baby and Toddler Group met weekly during termtime, run by church members, and continues to be well attended and a core element of our regular outreach to the wider community. 

Social and fundraising events included a number of coffee mornings, a Burns Night Supper and Ceilidh, a soup and pancake lunch on Shrove Tuesday, Christian Aid big breakfast, a spring craft fayre, a summer concert, a 'Curry and Ceilidh' evening, a parish Christmas lunch, and a film and supper evening showing 'Tinderbox', exploring the conflict in Israel-Palestine. Fundraising has been for parish, and also for Christian Aid, the Fairtrade Foundation, and the specific appeals listed below. Members of the congregation contributed generously towards the Mothers' Union's appeal for backpacks for prisoners on release, and towards Christmas backpacks to be distributed by the People's Kitchen, and in support of the BAY foodbank,This included a Christmas giving tree providing presents for children locally whose families are supported by the foodbank. Christmas Eve collections were again divided between church and the Children's Society 

## _**4. Fabric**_ 

The main capital expenditure on the building was the long-awaited upgrade to the church lighting, which was funded by a generous donation from a parishioner. 

The most obvious piece of work has been the development of a new children's area in the heart of the nave. We have also had to undertake a number of smaller maintenance tasks on the church and hall, and are aware that there will be more such work to do to keep the building fit for mission, including necessary work on the electrics. Both church and hall remain in largely good condition, and the grounds are well-maintained. 

This was recognised in the summer when the church gardens were placed in the North Tyneside in Bloom community category.  We note our particular thanks to all those who maintain the church, hall, and grounds. 

## _**5. Eco-Church**_ 

We were delighted to be awarded our Eco-Church Silver Award in May, and are now working towards Gold. Significant in our achieving Silver was our development of our outside space, including wildflowers, a bug hotel, a labyrinth, registering with the Quiet Garden Movement, and running a children's activity morning in National Children's Gardening Week. The provision of blister pack recycling boxes in church has proved particularly successful. The parish has an environmental policy and keeps this under review. 

## _**Finance**_ 

The responsibility for our financial wellbeing as a church falls upon the PCC and later in these reports you will find details of our financial statements for the last financial year. Grateful thanks to our treasurer, Alex Sneddon, for maintaining the financial records during the year and for producing these statements. 

Planned Giving continues to be the main source of income for the day to day needs of the parish. Membership of the Planned Giving Scheme was maintained and pledged giving increased marginally to £60,133, (2024 - £56,734). Donations amounting to £55,787 have been able to attract Gift-Aid (£52,257 in 2024) which has enabled the Church to claim from the Inland Revenue £13,947 (£13,064 in 2024). 

The planned giving review scheduled for the autumn was postponed owing to the need to change the church banking arrangements. Further claims have been made to the Inland Revenue under the Small Donations Scheme. £2,375 was receivable over the course of 2025 (£616 in 2024). 

The total income amounted to £115,758 (2024 - £115,398) with expenditure totalling £123,235 (2024 - £167,613). The major expenditure in the year (as ever) was our parish share contribution of £60,000, 

The PCC has committed to paying £64,800 in 2026. The PCC undertook to keep this under review, in the hope that a greater parish share contribution be made if circumstances allow.

## **Independent examiner's report to the PCC of St Peter's, Monkseaton** 

This report on the financial statements of the PCC for the year ended 31 December 2025, which are set out on pages 4 to 10, is in respect of an examination carried out in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 (the Regulations) and the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) 

## **Respective responsibilities of the PCC and the examiner** 

As members of the PCC you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts; You consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to : 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's statement** 

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 charity 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 the 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 Charities Act; and 

- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act 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.
