The Parochial Church Council (PCC) is a corporate body established by the Church of England. The PCC operates under the Parochial Church Council Powers Measure. The PCC is a registered charity with the Charity Commission (Registered No. 1131535). The full title of the charity is The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of Dibden. All the 12 named members of the PCC or Deanery Synod are Trustees of the charity. 

The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. All Church attendees are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the PCC. 

The PCC operates through a number of committees, which meet as required between full PCC meetings, namely:- 

|(a)|Standing Committee|
|---|---|
|(b)|Finance Committee|
|(c)|Fabric, Maintenance & Centre Committee|
|(d)|Churchyard Committee|
|(e)|Employment Committee|
|(f)|Children and Youth Work Support Group|
|(g)|IT & Communication Group|
|(h)|Mechanix Project Group|
|(i)|Coffee House Management Team (the CH is a separate trading company)|
|(j)|Mission Partners Group|
|(k)|Social & Outreach Group|



The full PCC met six times during the year.  Sub committees, including the Standing Committee, met between full PCC meetings and reported back to the PCC. 

Reports are circulated prior to PCC meetings under three headings: Information, Points for discussion, Decisions required.  Healthy and Safety and Safeguarding are on each agenda to help us be watchful of any issues. 

The major risks to which the PCC is exposed, as identified by the PCC members, have been reviewed and systems or procedures have been established to manage those risks. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

Dibden PCC has the responsibility of co-operating with the Rector Rev’d Peter Toller in promoting within the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church – pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. 

The PCC has maintenance responsibilities for the fabric and furnishings of the two church buildings - All Saints’ Church, Main Road, Dibden and St. Andrew’s Church, Dibden Purlieu - as well as the St. Andrew’s Centre, the Rectory, Beaulieu Road, Dibden Purlieu, the Associate Minister’s house: 5 Canterbury Drive, Dibden, and 2 Corsair Drive Dibden. The latter is let to tenants. 

The three main objectives from our Parish Mission Action Plan are: 

1. To refocus our discipleship 

2. To refresh our place of worship 

3. To reimagine our styles of worship. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

## _Church Attendance_ 

At the end of 2022 the Electoral Roll stood at 237. 

We conducted           9 weddings 

22 funerals including those at the crematorium

2022 started with Covid still impacting our day-to-day lives. Numbers were high due to the newest variant, Omicron, being more transmissible and mask-wearing was still required in services until the end of the month. Parish prayers continued as a hybrid meeting on Wednesday mornings and in person on Thursday evenings. Three communion stations were reintroduced, with non-alcoholic wine and gluten free wafers available for the first time. 

House of Prayer meetings continued with a special hybrid service during the Week of Christian Unity as an opportunity for Waterside Christians to gather for prayer. Plans to transform the Chapel started. 

A Confirmation service was held, with 17 candidates being confirmed by Bishop Geoff (Rent-aBishop!) who stood in for Bishop Debbie who was ill. Fortunately, Bishop Debbie was able to join us to present Percy Hammond with a gift to celebrate 70 years as a Licensed Lay Minister. 

A ‘Coffee & Cookies’ welcome was held for those who’d joined the church over the past couple of years. A time to share what we do and get to know each other a little better. 

Prayer ministry restarted after the 10.30 service. 

The Doodle Cats put on two concerts at the end of the month, in aid of Ben Pavitt’s Legacy of Love, with special guest singer Mike Pavitt. A fabulous time was had by all. 

The Ash Wednesday service was held at St Andrew’s, due to travellers occupying the car park at All Saints’. 

Our Lent Appeal raised just over £1,900 for Tearfund’s Ukraine Crisis fund and we held a Community Prayer Vigil for Ukraine in our front carpark. 

Refreshments restarted after the 10.30 service. 

We had a wonderful Easter Sunday breakfast before the 10.30 service and our Easter Gift Day raised around £21,000 split between the Chapel and Prayer Garden Project and the Sound Project. 

In May we started a weekly support meeting for Ukrainian refugees and Ann Turner & Friends held a Musical Celebration concert, raising over £500 for Hope Gardens. 

June saw a fantastic celebration in the carpark for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, with food, drink and entertainment provided by the church and funded by Hythe & Dibden Parish Council. Over 300 people from the community attended the event. 

We introduced a monthly Ladies’ breakfast. 

Helen Cheeseman started as the Children & Youth Coordinator and we welcomed 3 young people to take on work experience placements in the office and the Coffee House. 

A CAMEO Jubilee lunch was held, with over 30 attendees. 

The Coffee House retained its five star Food Hygiene rating after an inspection. 

The first phase of Project Refresh, updating our outdoor spaces, began with the installation of raised beds and benches on the front grass area by the road and a new outdoor seating area for the Coffee House. 

The closure of Beaulieu Road for gas works had an impact on customer numbers for the Coffee House and Sam Long’s fruit and veg stall. 

The Centre had a spruce up – carpets were cleaned, blinds repaired, the main hall was given a thorough wash and brush up and the cooker was also blitzed. 

A review of Safeguarding training for volunteers was carried out and the appropriate training provided. 

The new sound desk was installed at St Andrew’s. 

**3** 



The sad news of the Queen’s death on 8 September meant we entered a period of national mourning. St Andrew’s was opened for people to come and grieve or light a candle. We livestreamed the funeral. 

A guest supper was held and well-attended and Phil Ball gave a really interesting talk about his journey to faith. 

Love your Churchyard week saw the grounds at All Saints’ receive some TLC from over 20 volunteers. 

New Mechanix and Alpha courses were run and a Macmillan Coffee Morning was held in the Coffee House and raised over £300 for cancer support. 

Harvest Festival saw almost 60 bags of produce donated by the church family for Waterside Foodbank and New Forest Basics Bank. 

We hosted the Waterside Churches Together meeting at St Andrew’s. 

Ruth Delacour was commissioned at Winchester Cathedral as a BCM. 

The stunning Hope Gardens Artwork was displayed in church. 

The masonry repairs to All Saints’ were carried out, following the recommendations in the Quinquennial Report. 

A fabulous evening was had by all at the Barn Dance, with the Woodsiders Ceilidh band. A ploughman’s supper was provided for the dancers and the band. 

A service of dedication was led by Peter at the new Hythe & Dibden War Memorial Hospital. 

The annual Memorial Service to remember loved ones we have lost was held at St Andrew’s followed by drinks and cake in the Coffee House. It was a special time for so many. 

We opened the Coffee House on Mondays as a ‘Warm Space’ to help people cope with the increase in the cost of living, New Forest District Council granted us £1,000 to help with this. 

A 24-hour boardgaming marathon was held, raising over £500 for Waterside Food Bank and Dibden Churches’ Warm Space. 

Toy Sunday was well-supported with enough bags of gifts for 0–17year-olds to fill a car. 

We started advertising for a Youth Minister. 

Our annual Carols in the Carpark was blessed with dry weather and a good crowd of people enjoying the Doodle Cats, the Christmas Fire Engine, mince pies, mulled wine, hot chocolate and gingerbread. 

Through the Autumn term we hosted around 400 children from various schools to support their individual projects and for church services.

## **Financial Review** 

The total income of the parish in 2022 was £334,095, an increase of more than 8% on 2021 (£308,291). The sources of income are shown in the chart below, followed by a summary of some of the main details. 


**----- Start of picture text -----**<br>
Income  £334,095<br>Planned giving £156,307<br>Collections & donations £43,937<br>Hall lettings £40,649<br>Gift Aid tax refund £37,380<br>Wedding & funeral fees £21,531<br>Bequests £10,500<br>Rent (2 Corsair Drive) £9,206<br>Other income £6,230<br>Grants £5,406<br>Coffee House £1,519<br>Interest £1,430<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br>


## **Income - summary** 

Planned Giving by church members provided nearly half the income for the year; the total amount received in this regular way, £156,307, showed a small drop (-1.6%) from 2021.  Collections and donations (£43,937) increased slightly (+1%) in the year; £29,418 of donations were designated to specific purposes. 

Church members responded generously to appeals, and the amounts given contribute to the total figure for Collections and Donations of nearly £44,000.  The Lent appeal raised £2,131 to support Ukrainian refugees, including seafarers in the port of Southampton, and the Easter Gift Day raised £21,095 after the Gift Aid tax rebate was added in.   Half of the Gift Day money was set aside for the projects to 

enhance the chapel and create a prayer garden and half went towards upgrades to the sound system in St Andrews’ Church. 

Hire charges for Hall Lettings increased markedly (+38%) over 2021 when Covid-19 lockdown restrictions impacted this source of income. Gift Aid Tax Refunds provided an important source of income and were up on 2021 (+2.9%).  Bequests of £10,500 were received. The freehold house at 2 Corsair Drive continued to be let, which provided a net income of £9,206.  Other income includes receipts of £3,404 from solar panel electricity generation.  The parish received grants totalling £5,406, for which we are grateful to the following: 

Golden Bottle Trust – All Saints’ church repairs £3,000 New Forest District Council – Warm Spaces grant £1,000 New Forest District Councillors - Community Grants * £   700 

**6** 



Department for Culture, Media and Sport – VAT # £   491 New Forest Homes for Ukraine – to our support group £   100 Other central government £   115 

* Kindly provided by the councillors for the Butts Ash & Dibden Purlieu ward in support of our event to celebrate Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth’s platinum jubilee in June 2022. 

# A refund of VAT on bills for listed-places-of-worship repairs to the lychgate and organ at All Saints’ church. 

The Coffee House café traded at a surplus in 2022, making a donation of just over £1,500 to PCC funds. 

## **Expenditure** 

The total expenditure of the parish in 2022 was £333,157, an increase of 2.4% on 2021 (£325,328).  A breakdown is shown in the chart below, followed by a summary of each heading. 


**----- Start of picture text -----**<br>
Expenditure £333,157<br>Diocesan parish share £101,414<br>Repairs & maintenance £55,303<br>Ministry & pastoral care £52,692<br>Administrative costs £28,016<br>Charitable giving £23,583<br>Utilities £23,071<br>Buildings running costs £21,599<br>Equipment & technology £10,204<br>Children & youth £6,329<br>Other £6,051<br>All Saints' churchyard £4,895<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br>


The Diocesan Parish Share accounted for some 30% of expenditure.  It is the parish’s contribution to the Diocese of Winchester’s Common Mission Fund, most of which goes to pay for the training, stipends, pension contributions and housing of the clergy, including our own rector. The contribution requested from the parish in 2022 (£101,404) was 13% less than in 2021 (£116,407). 

Repairs and Maintenance expenditure includes nearly £43,000 spent on the following: organ and masonry repairs at All Saints’ church; landscape improvements to the frontage of St Andrew’s church car park; preparatory planning and design work for the St Andrew’s chapel and prayer garden projects to be completed in 2023-24. 

Expenditure on Ministry and Pastoral Care comprises the salaries of our associate ministers, the costs of outreach such as Alpha courses, the Ukrainian support group and the Warm Space provided in November and December.  It also includes the costs associated with weddings and funerals which are recovered through the fees included in income. 

Administrative Costs are a proportion of church office staff time, insurance, printing and other costs essential for the management and operation of the two churches. 

Charitable Giving is made up of a tithe (one-tenth) of the monies freely given to the parish plus money given for special collections, or in response to charitable appeals.  More details are given in notes 6 and 7 of the annual accounts.  In addition, the expenditure item Children and Youth includes charitable subscriptions to Compassion UK (£336), Urban Saints (£252) and XLP (£120). 

Utilities’ costs for heating, power, water bills and waste collection went up in the year. Although the parish benefited from gas and electricity contracts that were fixed until the last three months of the year, utility costs more than doubled in 2022 compared with 2021.  We had budgeted for this increase in 2022, and the PCC has budgeted for a further increase in 2023. 

**7** 



Building Running Costs expenditure paid for the cleaning, caretaking and administration of the St Andrew’s church centre.  Rooms are used every day of the week for church groups and community activities. 

Upgrades to the sound systems in St Andrew’s Church were almost entirely completed in 2022, and the spending is included in the above chart under the item, Equipment and Technology.  We also purchased a new sound desk, a keyboard instrument and an electronic drumkit, and these items are accounted for as additions to church equipment in the annual accounts (see note 9). 

Children and Youth costs of £6,329 were lower than last year (2021: £20,236) because a full-time children’s and youth minister was not employed in 2002; it is intended to recruit a person to this role in 2023.  Costs associated with the Mechanix course, run once again in 2022, are included in this figure of £6,329.  Course expenses of £1,174 were paid out of deferred income set aside for the Mechanix project, and funds of £8,536 are to be carried forward to the 2023 project. 

The costs of All Saints’ churchyard were the same as in 2021; they are largely for grass cutting and tree surgery to keep the churchyard amenable and safe. 

## **Investments** 

The investment property, 2 Corsair Drive, was revalued at £400,000 on 31 December 2022.  This is an increase of £70,000 since the last valuation in 2019.  The freehold property, 5 Canterbury Drive, is included in the accounts at cost as it currently houses the Associate Minister for Outreach and Community. 

## **Outturn for 2022** 

The net result for the year was a surplus of income over expenditure of £938.  Adding the gain on the value of the investment property gave an increase in funds of £70,938, bringing the total funds balance at the end of the year to £1,764,528.  This figure includes Restricted Funds of £32,018 which the PCC may spend only on the specific objectives for which they were given.  Further details on Restricted Funds are given in note 14 of the annual accounts.  Endowment Funds currently stand at £62,500, being money received which is invested and the interest used for the upkeep of All Saints' Churchyard. Endowment Funds are on deposit with the Central Board of Finance of the Church of England. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

It is PCC policy to maintain a balance on unrestricted funds which equates to at least six months unrestricted budgeted payments.  This is equivalent to some £242,000 for 2023.  It is held to smooth out fluctuations in cash flow, to provide a buffer against unexpected loss of income and meet unexpected major expenditure so that we can fulfil our responsibilities for others, including employees.  The cash balance held on unrestricted (including designated) funds at the year end, together with the amounts payable to and by the PCC, was £349,199 which more than adequately meets this target. 

## **Approved by the Parochial Church Council on 27 March 2023 and signed on its behalf by Revd. Peter Toller (PCC Chairman).**
