ST. GEORGE’S PARISH CHURCH, ALTRINCHAM

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL

for the YEAR ENDED 31[st] DECEMBER 2025

Objectives and activities

St George’s PCC, Altrincham has the responsibility of promoting, in the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic and ecumenical. It also has the responsibility for the maintenance of St George’s Church, Altrincham and related estate.

When planning activities and considering their responsibilities, the incumbent and the PCC have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion.

Achievements and performance

The Parish Centre Hall continues to be widely used by local community groups and further enhances our stewardship.

Financial review

The Total Incoming Resources during the year were £206,797 (2024: £203,662). The Parish Centre Buildings are continuing to be used by local organisations and the income during 2025 from Parish Hall lettings and car parking increased to £39,217 (2024: £36,843). The level of grants paid this year was £400 (2024: £6,700) as detailed in note 9. Planned giving, including income tax recovered, has increased from £79,595 to £86,555. The PCC has net outgoing resources for the year of £72,277 which has decreased total funds carried forward to £742,972.

Reserves policy

It is the PCC’s policy to maintain a balance on general fund, sufficient to ensure that the Church is adequately maintained and all running costs can be met as and when they fall due. A designated fund has been established to set monies aside to be used towards the cost of church maintenance and repairs.

It is our policy to invest our fund balances with the CBF Church of England Deposit Fund.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Accounting

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and reporting by Charites: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015) – (Charities SORP (FRS 102)).

St. George’s Parish Church, Altrincham meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are therefore recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).

The true and fair override has been used to apply the Charities SORP (FRS 102) under the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008.

Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis

The PCC members are of the view that the immediate future of St. George’s Parish Church, Altrincham for at least the next 12 to 18 months is secure and that on this basis the accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis.

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are recorded at cost.

Depreciation is calculated to write down the cost less estimated residual value of all tangible fixed assets over their expected useful lives. The rates and periods generally applicable are:

Parish Centre – 2% per annum straight line Fixtures, Fittings and Equipment – 25% per annum straight line

Debtors

Debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any discounts offered.

Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably.
