## **ST AUGUSTINE’S IPSWICH** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2022** 

The board of trustees present their reports and accounts for Parochial Church Council of St Augustine’s Church, Ipswich (‘St Augustine’s’ Ipswich) for the period ending 31st December 2022. 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

The Parochial Church Council (PCC) has been a Charity registered with the Charity Commission (Charity number 1131319) since July 30, 2009. The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. All Church members are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the PCC which in 2022 comprised 21 members. The Parochial Church Council met on six occasions during 2022 and the APCM (Annual Parochial Council Meeting) took place on May 3, 2022. 

## **Location and facilities** 

St Augustine’s Ipswich is situated on the junction of Felixstowe Road and Bucklesham Road, Ipswich. It is part of the Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich within the Church of England. The PCC has maintenance responsibilities for the whole church complex (Church, Lantern Room and The Hub). The correspondence address is Church Office, The Hub, Bucklesham Road, Ipswich, IP3 8TH. 

## **Electoral Roll and Attendance** 

The Electoral Roll prepared for the 2022 Annual Church Meeting showed 214 on the Church Electoral Roll, 91 of whom were not resident within the parish and 123 who were resident. The average weekly attendance at worship, counted in October, was 93 adults and 19 children (Sunday only) rising to 125 adults with our Thursday Morning Communion service. With children’s, youth and community activities, we estimate the average weekly reach of our ministry in 2022 to be around 300 people. 

## **Volunteers** 

St Augustine’s Ipswich benefits from the dedicated work of a large number of volunteers. In accordance with FRS 102 and the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the economic contribution of general volunteers is not recognised in these accounts. 

## **Objects and Activities** 

St Augustine’s PCC had the responsibility of co-operating with the incumbent Revd Al Metcalfe, in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole vision of the church which is to make disciples of Jesus as we gather in his name, grow deeper in his Word and give away what we’ve been given. 

We are especially committed to doing whatever it takes to see God bring us growth in three key areas: children, young people and families, discipleship to Jesus through small groups and especially Alpha, and ministries of compassion to our community. 

4 



In the last two years we have sent two church plants into our town: River Church, a new HTB church focussed on reaching young adults in the Waterfront area of the town; and Lindbergh Road Community Church, a small missional community focussed on a neighbourhood within our own parish. Both are seeing the fruit of new disciples of Jesus. 

We are now in a new phase of rebuilding and growth, and though we have no immediate plans to plant again, we are eager to continue to play our part in growing the kingdom beyond our own parish. 

## **Public Benefit** 

In accordance with our duties stated in section 17(5) of the Charities Act, we have considered the guidance provided by the Charity Commission in relation to public benefit. This public benefit has once again been demonstrated by the activities undertaken this year outlined below. 

## **Achievements and Performance** 

## **St Augustine’s community life emerges from and revolves around our pattern of prayer and** 

**worship.** As John Piper memorably put it, ‘Worship is the goal and the fuel of mission: Mission exists because worship doesn’t.’ 

Throughout 2022 we gathered to pray and worship every week of the year, twice on Sunday mornings (9 and 10.30am) and once on Thursday morning (10am, becoming 10.30am early in the year). We believe the breadth of our worship is part of our strength, with loud and lively, contemplative and more traditional styles of worship all in our weekly programme. At Christmas and Easter our programme expanded to include additional services of worship; during the month of August, we gathered just once on Sunday to meet a reduced demand due to holidays. Hugely encouraging has been the continuing and growing response to our revived Thursday Morning Communion service. 

Our weekly programme of prayer consists of two regular ‘appointment’ gatherings: on Monday evenings, on Zoom, and early on Thursday mornings, in person. Informal prayer in small groups and prayer triplets also takes place throughout the week. 

The year saw a gradual increase in weekly numbers participating in all our worship and prayer activities, still somewhat down on recent memory due both to the aftermath of the COVID pandemic and former members, including key leaders, now gathering new congregations as River Church and Lindbergh Road Community Church (LRCC). 

In January we officially sent out the River Church team led by Matt and Amy Key who had both served their curacies with us. As an independent registered charity of their own, their activities are reported separately and we rejoice in seeing them thriving and growing. Our connection with River continues as Al serves as a board member. 

While still operating under our PCC and registered charity, LRCC’s activities are extremely varied and also deserve a report of their own. This can be found on their website, lrccipswich.org.uk. 

**Children, young people and families is the first of our three missional priorities,** and our offering here goes well beyond our excellent Sunday morning sessions which took place weekly throughout 2022, apart from short breaks for school holidays and our very popular All Together services on the first Sunday of the month. 

Our weekly daytime groups for the under-5s, Music & Rhyme (Tuesday mornings) and Hippos (Wednesday mornings) saw unprecedented numbers each week, building community and beginning to feed families into other areas of our church life. One of these, Messy Church, ran three 

5 



times, becoming a nascent worshiping community in its own right. 

Sunday mornings for young people offered a mix of breakfast Bible studies, and opportunities to serve in church, followed by lunch and games. Midweek, our Youth Cafe ran for young people of high school age most weeks of the year, offering a safe space to hang out and opportunity to build relationships. 

**Adult discipleship, including Alpha, forms the second of our missional priorities.** Our Bible teaching on Sunday mornings (also usually available online after each Sunday) aims to be inspirational, encouraging and practical in forming each of us as disciples of Christ. Indeed our main teaching series in 2022, _Disciples_ , used the lens of discipleship through which to read the Gospel of Luke. Among other things, we also discovered the beautiful paradoxes of Jesus’ _Upside Down Kingdom,_ and spend two months meeting Jesus ‘as if for the first time’ through the remarkable TV series _The Chosen._ 

Helping us go deeper are weekly or fortnightly Grow Groups. We find there is no better way to grow as disciples of Jesus than to come around God’s Word with a small number of fellow believers. A ten-day focus on prayer between Ascension and Pentecost, Thy Kingdom Come, saw many of us participating in new ways of prayer, including a Half Night of Prayer. A clear fruit of discipleship is adult baptisms and reaffirmations of baptismal faith, and we rejoiced with four brothers and sisters on Easter Day. 

The ten-week Alpha continues to be a key place where people find faith in Jesus for the first time. Our two courses in 2022 saw around 20 people begin the course, many of these subsequently joining our church family. But it doesn’t need a course to make a Christian, and God has also blessed us with new believers coming to faith through appeals as part of our worship on Sunday mornings. 

**Our third mission focus is community compassion.** As well as ongoing pastoral care for our large and diverse church family, many of whom are very elderly and some of whom are housebound, we are caring for an increasingly large number of those who are poor in spirit or simply lonely. 

St Augustine’s monthly Lunch Club and annual Holiday at Home week are both well established and greatly valued by a large number of local people, as are the Bereavement Journey and Memorial services. 

Adding to this, 2022 saw the continued growth and development of the TLC (‘The Lighted Cross’) Renew Wellbeing Cafe, a weekly space for local people to gather, connect and talk. Signposting to local services is offered alongside a range of hobbies and wellbeing activities. In October, the Cafe extended its opening hours, registering as a ‘Winter Warm Space’, joining a town-wide initiative to help people with the cost of living. The offer of a bowl of soup and a warm welcome was taken up by many who now consider themselves part of our wider church community. 

This year also saw the launch of our Community Compassion Fund, a discretionary fund for people in our parish and wider church life facing financial hardship. Our hope is that this will be just one more way in which we can be a practical blessing to our local community. 

**A great deal else takes place under the banner of St Augustine’s, helping to build family and share the good news of Jesus with our wider community.** Because we recognise the centrality of encouraged, empowered leaders across the life of the church, we invested in two Leaders’ Mornings during the year, welcoming Bishop Sandy Millar in May, and Revd Johnny Douglas in November. Both occasions felt like significant milestones in our life together. 

6 



In July, a group of 30 headed to Focus, the weekend of the HTB Network, of which St Augustine’s is a part. It is impossible to overestimate the importance for a local church like ours of being part of something bigger, being refreshed by the Holy Spirit and having our vision stretched. 

Regular monthly activities took place for men (Middlemen), women (Ladies Group, Sisterhood) and interest groups such as a BSL signing group. Our high-quality facilities are also used on a regular basis by a myriad of community groups and small businesses, some of whom we assist with discounted or pro bono hiring. Our longstanding relationship with local charities such as EACH and Headway continue to the benefit of clients and supporters. 

Finally, the year was both happy and deeply sad as we marked both the Queen’s Jubilee in May and her passing in September with celebrations and opportunities for prayer and reflection on the life and legacy of our deeply committed Christian monarch. 

## **Staffing** 

As well as a full-time stipendiary clergy (Revd Al Metcalfe), in 2022 St Augustine’s also employed a part-time Youth Minister, a part-time Cleaner, and (from August) a part-time Operations Manager. 

## **Future Plans** 

The charity plans to continue expanding, and adding to its existing activities in forthcoming years, subject to satisfactory funding becoming available. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

St Augustine’s Ipswich aims to accumulate and retain as unrestricted reserves 2 months’ running costs. At the end of 2022, unrestricted reserves totalled £38,218 which meets this requirement. 

## **Financial Review** 

In the period to the end of 31st December 2022, St Augustine’s Ipswich raised a total income of £214,707 against a total expenditure of £194,948. Unrestricted funds at the end of the year totalled £82,413, including designated funds of £37,196. Restricted funds at the end of the year totalled £498,384. The balance in the bank at the end of the year totalled £109,184, including £26,116 belonging to LRCC. For further details, please see the financial statements. 

## **Safeguarding** 

The trustees have adopted the Church of England’s safeguarding policy, relating to children, young people, and vulnerable adults. During 2022, Nigel Cook served alongside Revd Al Metcalfe as Safeguarding Officer, supported by the diocesan safeguarding officer. The trustees are committed to best practice in safeguarding, through the implementation of our policy, which includes provision for DBS checks, safeguarding training, safer recruitment, and practical measures to protect everybody involved in and served by the church.

## **The Church of St Augustine of Hippo, Ipswich - 1131319** 

## **Notes to the Accounts** 

## **Year ended 31 December 2022** 

## **1. Accounting Policies** 

## **(a)  Basis of Accounts Preparation** 

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) published on 16 July 2014, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable  in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) the Charities Act 2011 the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015. 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are prepared in t li hi h i h f ti l f th h it **(b) Recognition of incoming resources** 

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the charity is legally entitled to the income after any performance conditions have been met, the amount can be measured reliably and it is probable that the income will be received. 

For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of performance before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred until those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled. 

Donated facilities and donated professional services are recognised in income at their fair value when their economic benefit is probable, it can be measured reliably and the charity has control over the item. Fair value is determined on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity. For example the amount the charity would be willing to pay in the open market for such facilities and services. A corresponding amount is recognised in expenditure. 

No amount is included in the financial statements for volunteer time ( although expenses relating to there role is included in project costs ) in line with the SORP (FRS 102). Any further detail is given in the Trustees’ Annual Report 

Where practicable, gifts in kind donated for distribution to the beneficiaries of the charity are included in stock and donations in the financial statements upon receipt. If it is impracticable to assess the fair value at receipt or if the costs to undertake such a valuation outweigh any benefits, then the fair value is recognised as a component of donations when it is distributed and an equivalent amount recognised as charitable expenditure. 

Fixed asset gifts in kind are recognised when receivable and are included at fair value. They are not deferred over the life of the asset. 

For legacies, entitlement is the earlier of the charity being notified of an impending distribution or the legacy being received. At this point income is recognised.  On occasion legacies will be notified to the charity however it is not possible to measure the amount expected to be distributed. On these occasions, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed. 

Interest on funds on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the company , this is normally upon notification of the interest by the bank.

**Notes to the Accounts Year ended 31 December 2022** 

## **c) Expenditure recognition** 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payments to third parties, it is probable that the settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. It is categorised under the following headings: 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as an expense against the activity for which expenditure arose. **Governance costs** 

Include costs of the preparation and examination of statutory accounts, the costs of trustee meetings and cost of any legal advice to trustees on governance or constitutional matters. 

## **Support Costs** 

Support costs are those that assist the work of the charity but do not directly represent charitable activities and include office costs , governance costs , administrative payroll costs. They are incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity and include project management carried out at Headquarters. Where support costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources. Premises overheads and central functions have been allocated on an activity costs basis consistent with the use of resources. 

Fund raising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of disseminating information in support of the charitable activities

|**gifts**|same time as the donations to which they relate.|
|**(f) Debtors**|Debtors and Creditors with 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.|
|**Liabilities and Provisions**|Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance|
||Sheet date as a result of a past event, it probable that a transfer of|
||economic benefit will be required in settlement , and the amount of|
||the settlement can be estimated reliably.|
