TREASURERS ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDING 2021

Review of the year

Total income for the year has fallen by 1,611, having also fallen in the previous year by 13,503 The largest difference in income is reflected in the figures for Other Income , which has reduced by 11,964 from last year Planned Giving has fallen by a small amount this year, showing a decrease of 450 from 2020

An expected increase is reflected in Special Fundraising, 7,136 in 2019, only 542 in 2020, 4,232 for 2021 - an increase of 3,691 Donations have increased by 3,059, and collections by 874

Total expenditure for the year has increased by 3,439

Parish Share paid total for 2021 is 28,150, 26,200 in 2020 and 52,000 in 2019, Therefore still significantly reduced against the required amount There was a significant decrease on funds spent on Repairs and Maintenance of 8,546, 17,515 in 2020, 8,968 is shown for 2021 Churchyard Expenses show a decrease in spending, being 6,367 in 2020 and 2,200 in 2021, a variance of 4,167 An expected increase is reflected in Parish Office and Staff Costs, an increase of 1,313 from 2020 Other expenses are running at much the same level as 2020

The year Income and Expenditure reported for 2021 shows a small gain of 1,406, in 2020 we recorded a loss of 422

Investments and Reserves policy

Investment Fund balances used within the accounts are as per those reported by the individual Treasurers of the respective Churches The investment policy is to hold our reserves in the form of cash deposits with CBF and with their various investment funds They are held to meet costs in connection with further maintenance which will be required to keep our churches in an acceptable condition.

St Nicholas Cottage

The cottage has continued to be rented and this rent will be used in the first instance to replenish our depleted reserves. Rental income has increased slightly by 195 in 2021, offset by costs which have also increased for this year by 564 As in previous years, in 2021 surplus from rent (minus management costs incurred) has been used as a contribution towards Group Parish Share

Magazine Accounts

The Magazine account has been reconciled to the bank balances and paperwork kindly given to me from Jonathan Grice I am incredibly grateful to have a current and accurate report to include in this years accounts However last years Accounting figures contained a figure for creditors of 1,040 that is no longer present in the latest accounts Hence the adjusting figure now shown in the accounts which corrects the Bfwd figure listed in the previously submitted accounts
