Vicar's Report
The year 012021 has seen us going from a locked church building with us not gathering in
person Io visltors joining us for our Christmas services. As we slowly began opening up again
to activities in the church, we have seen the relum ol Mainly Music and Messy Church as well
as a new Book ol Common Prayer {BCPI service on a Wednesday lunchtime.
In July the PCC and other invited guests joined together to plan what we think God wants us
lo do in the next year at All Saints Church. We identified the need lo make our church a place
where 'AII Are Welcome.. The PCC then identified three areas of where we could adapt and
improve our welcome. The welcome at the door, the welcome ol the building and the welcome
beyond the fronl door. We have currently two groups each taking on thè task ol the building
and beyond our building.
In December we welcomed back our community to celebrate Christmas and it was lovely to
see our church busy again. We have seen new people join us Ihroughoul the year to make All
Saints their church home and sadly we have losl some very dear friends, who we miss.
l am looking forward to seeing whal 2022 will bring, one ol which is a community lunch on
Sunday 5 June at the Parish Rooms to Celebrate the Queen's jubilee.

Reaches up glorifying God in our worship and providing a welcoming and sacred space
where everyone can be helped to worship God in the beauty of holiness.
A range of groups and activilies help us lo achieve our Mission in this regard. in particular in
supporting our worship at a range ol church seNices. in enhancing services through the
provision of music and Iloral displays in church. and in assisting our young people in their
worship al sèrvice times.
Worship services
In 2021 our 10am service has resumed back to having a procession in and oul (minus the
choir) and have adapted lo ihe world ol streaming. Our numbers lor this service remain around
50-60 people each week and have seen increases in our special seNices such as hatvest
where we had over 80.
On a Wednesday we introduced a BCP service at 12'.30pm and we average around 8-10
people each w8ek, including some from other churches. After this service a small number of
us galher for coffee and lunch.
Our Messy Church service has relumed, and it is lovely to see families gather lo talk about
Jesus, Our Messy Chufch Chrislmas service was well attended, and we were encouraged that
new families have joined us having seen our adverts via Facebook and WhalsApp
Neighbourhood Watch groups.
Our Advent reflective service and Christmas services were another opportunity for our parish
to come and join us in worship. It was lovely lo see the church brimming with people at our
Carols by Candlelight seNice. We also welcomed back Greenbank Preparatory School lor
their Caiol Service and it was wonderful lo hear their many choirs singing and the children
reading the bible passages.
Looking forward we hope lo introduce a family communion service on a Sunday morning al
10am after Easter 2022.

The Choir
Unfortunately the better yearforwhich we had all been hoping began with ourthird lockdown.
As in the previous year there was no choir for our Lenten and Easter Setvices but there was
much rejoicing when we were able to recommence socially distanced, shortened practices of
st
forty minutes on 21 April. Our new Vicar, Rev. Sarah, came to join us for a few practices and
we were delighted to welcome a temporary recruit to our number. We spent several weeks
'finding our VolS. and as the general situation in the Country improved practices lenglhened
lo an hour.
Eventually permission was given for choirs to sing in Church and on 15th August the choir led
the servi forthe first lime in 16 months. The evening ofseptember 12th was our first Sung
Evensong in 18 months. Since then we have retumed to a fully sung ServiGe at morning
Eucharist and continue with a monthly Sung Evensong. We took particular pleasure in leading
Ihe Advent Preparation SeNice, Carol servi and Midnight Communion, for which we
received many appreciative comments. We are looking forward to a full year of servi5,
learning new music, revising well known pleS and continuing lo enhan vocal and chordl
sknlls.
We have welcomed two new singers to the choir this year, and we extend an invitation to
anyone who enjoys singing lo come along on a Wednesday afternoon at 3pm {changes to
7pm when the hourgoes forward) lojoin in a praclicejust forthe experience- no commitment.
Please contact me or any member of the choir if you would like to know more about us.
My thanks to all the Choristers who work extremely hard and achieve a standard of singing of
which All Saints can be proud.
Trevlyn Thomas, Organist
Church Flower Group
I must first express our sympathy lor the loss of Sheila Stone who died on New Year's Day.
Sheila had been a member of Flower Group for many years. She regularly helped with the
weekly rolas and never failed to turn up io help with leslivals. The Library Niche and the
Cloister were her comfort zones {we all have our favouritesl. For Christmas l asked her to
arrange the Library Niche. 11 was her piece de resistance and was admired by all. Thank you,
Sheila lor your contiibution. You will be sadly missed.
During the Pandemic the Flower Group were unable to operale. Once church was open for
limited periods we placed silk arrangements in the usual srtuations $0 that, open or closed,
the church looked cared for.
We resumed the Altar Flower rolas in July followed by using fresh flowers throughout the
church after Harvest Thanksgiving. Since Ihen we have been able to decorate the church lor
Remembrance Sunday and Chiislmas.
We all felt we were on the way back to normality by once again holding our Flower Group
Christmas Coffee Morning on 11th December. Our supporters did not let us down and il was a
joyous and successful occasion, We raised £535 which will pay tor another year's flowers (the
Flower group money is not part ofthe PCC'S accounts).
The only negative thing I have to report is that our membership is dwindling. Being a member
ol Flower Group is a happy and lullilling experience and we welcome anyone who wishes lo
join us.

R8ach8s out - being part of our community, seNing our community and sharing Ihe good
news of God's love in Jesus Christ by word and action.
Our outreach covers charilable giving and support lorthose in need. The Charities Committee,
a committee of the PCC, undertakes activities to generale lunds loi outward giving throughout
the year, often with a secondary remit ol providing social activities lor church members. The
chuich organises additional support, both linancially and through prayer.
We are keen to help young people and families in their underslanding ol our lailh. We support
our young people's unifomied groups, and the 'Mainly Music group for pre-school children
and their carers, eslablished in 2015 to lill a significant gap in oui Mission. has continued to
Ihrive and grow.
Our membership ol co-ordinaling bodies tor faith related groups in the area assists in our
understanding ol and support lor similar groups in the Parish, while our Parish Magazine and
newly relaunched websile help to spread our message.
Parish Rooms
In early 2021 we sadly sad goodbye lo our caretaker as she slepped down from the role after
many years. From this point onwards the volunteers on the committee look over the rolos ol
the carelak8r to make sure that we were able lo offer space lor our regular usets. This meant
that the use ol the rooms was limited lo jusl our regulars, and we were unable to offer new or
one-off bookings as we didn't have the capacity available.
In November we welcomed a new Parish Rooms Supervisor who has taken on the dual task
ol the Caretaker and administratoi of bookings. Wilh this new employment the use of the rooms
has increased, and we were able lo offer one-off bookings again.
We have seen the Parish Rooms used also lor filming purposes by ITV as well as Ihe usual
community activities such as Pilales. dance and drama groups, and wellbeing groups such as
the Women's Guild, Flower group and Slimming World.
We look forward lo using the Parish Rooms again for Lent lunches, Harvest Lunch, and the
Jubilee Gommunity Lunch.
The Parish Rooms cottage has undergone a huge transformation as the Ihree-bedroorn
building was completely redecorated and a new kilchen has been in51alled. Tho cost ol this
renovation was covered from the funds in the Parish Rooms account. In the future the cottage
will be rented out and will no longer be the residence lor the Parish Roorns Supervisor.

some people brought them to church, giving a total of £888. Some envelopes were laken to
other churches and there was also on-line giving to our Just Giving web page. The total for all
the churches in CTCH was £5,232. Our distribution ol the envelopes may also have resulted
in further on-line giving done directly lo the main Chiistian Aid site. We were very pleased
that, despite all the reslrictions, we were still able lo raise such a good amounl.

The Craft GroLtp met every month on lh8 S8cond and fourth Wednesdays unlil the Covid
Pandemic necessitated the closure ol churches and all activities involving people working
within close proximity of each other were removed from the social agenda.
Since the church has been reopened Frances Pickett has been disinclined to restart th8 Craft

Possible.
Over the lasi year Frances and David Pickett have been involved in family business matters

own crafts within a communal but safe environment.

We were all so thrilled when al last we could meet again aller such a long break. Our first
eeting was in Church as it was so much airier than the meeting room. It was a chatty
rneeting,a sort of combination of an emergency A.G. M. and lots of chal with lea, coflee and
cake. Hazel passed on her job ol providing cards and flowers and comfort lo members who
were ill or in hospital to Marjorie and we Ihanked Hazel lor all her hard work. We also
Ihanked Ann. Hazel, Elva and Julia lor cheering up our lives with little gifts at Chrislmas and
Easter.
For our next meeting we went oul lor a meal at the Deanwaler which was very enjoyable. On
the 8th ol October we were back in the Meeling Room and il was our first absolutely normal
meeting after such a long lockdown. We played Beetle and one ol our mernbers, Christine had
Ihree "beelles. out ol the nine games that we played.

Sadly, during the past year, we have seen the passing away ol members ol our group. We
acknowledge their friendship and in turn are grateful for the happy limes we were able lo
spend together.
At the start of the pandern a list was drawn up ol the members ol the Senior Fellowship
Group to ensure everyone received a phone call lo check on iheir well-being and to enquire if
shopping or other help was required. These olfers ol help have continued throughout the year
and will continue lor as long as there is need.
Church newsletters were delivered on a regular basis to those who were housebound or did
not have inlernel access lo the live streaming of the seNices.

Reserves
Note 18 to the Accounts shows the assels and liabilrties attributable to the various funds by
type, and Note 19 summarises Ihe movement on each restricted fund the period.
The PCC recognises the need tor the Charity to establish and maintain reserves to enable it
to continue to carry out its charwtable objectives in the event of unloreseeable matters arising.
It is the policy of the Church Ihal unrestricted lunds which have not been designaled lor a
specific use should bè maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six months,
expenditure. that is up to 50°/o of ils annual expendf(ure.
The Trustees consider that reserves at this level ensure that, in the evenl of a significant drop
in funding, they will be able to ¢onb'nue the Church's current activities vthile consideration is
given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level ol reserves has been
maintained throughout the year.
The Trustees ale aware ol the continuing year on year reduction in funds and are considering
ways in which Ihe16v81 ol annual loss Can be addressed. In 20211 a loss equivalent to around
50°/0 ol expenditure was incurred, being a combinalion of Ihe conlinuing annual losses due lo
annual expenditure exceeding annual income, exacert)aled by a significant reduction in Giving
in 2020 and 2021, caused al least in part by restrictions in church opening and services. and
therefore attendance. imposed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Risk Management
The Trustees have assessed the major risks lo which the Charity is exposed and are satisfied
that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the maior risks during 2022.
Policies and procedures are in place covering relevant requirements such as H8allh and
Salety, employment law, Charities Act, and child protection. The buildings are in good repair
and maintained on a regular basis. Signrficant risks are a reduction in church membership,
declining income and the use of reserves over the next few years. Covid-19 has had a further
negative impact on linan¢es, however the PCG is ¢onlidenl that there are sufficient resources
to cover any issues throughout 2022. Transformation groups were established to begin lo
addr8SS these specific issues and further measures will be developed to mitigate the situation.

## **TO THE PCC OF THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF THE ECCLESIASTICAL PARISH OF ALL SAINTS, CHEADLE HULME**
I report on the financial statements of the church for the year ended 31 December 2021, which are set out on pages 23 to 33.
## **Respective responsibilities of PCC and examiner**
The PCC are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The PCC consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
- It is my responsibility to:
- (i) examine the financial statements under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
- (ii) follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
- (iii) state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **Basis of independent examiner's report**
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 you as members of the PCC 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 next statement.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
- (a) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
- (i) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
- (ii) to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act;
- have not been met or
- (b) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

**THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF THE ECCLESIASTICAL PARISH OF ALL SAINTS, CHEADLE HULME ALL SAINTS PCC, CHEADLE HULME NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021**_
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **Charity information**
The Parochial Church Council Of The Ecclesiastical Parish Of All Saints, Cheadle Hulme is a registered unincorporated charity.
## **1.1 Accounting convention**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the church Accounting regulations 2006 governing the individual accounts of PCC's, the Charities Act 2011 and “Accounting and Reporting by Charities: 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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016). The church is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The church has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the church. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
## **1.2 Going concern**
At the time of approving the financial statements, the PCC have a reasonable expectation that the church has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the PCC continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
## **1.3 Charitable funds**
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the PCC in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the church.
## **1.4 Incoming resources**
Income is recognised when the church is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the church has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the church has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.
Grants, where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.

## **THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF THE ECCLESIASTICAL PARISH OF ALL SAINTS, CHEADLE HULME ALL SAINTS PCC, CHEADLE HULME NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021**_
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **(Continued)**
## **1.5 Resources expended**
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over, or when awarded, if that award creates a binding or constructive obligation on the PCC.
Other expenditure is generally recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred and is accounted for gross.
Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred to raise funds for charitable purposes.
Expenditure on charitable activities comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Other costs include all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.
All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the SoFA on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource.
## **1.6 Property, plant and equipment**
Property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Office equipment 20% straight line Organ and fixtures 10% straight line Central heating 5% straight line
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
## **1.7 Non-current investments**
Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.
## **1.8 Impairment of non-current assets**
At each reporting end date, the church reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).

## **THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF THE ECCLESIASTICAL PARISH OF ALL SAINTS, CHEADLE HULME ALL SAINTS PCC, CHEADLE HULME NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021**_
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **(Continued)**
## **1.9 Inventories**
Inventories are consumables held in stock to be used during the next accounting period and are stated at their cost price.
## **1.10 Cash and cash equivalents**
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
## **1.11 Financial instruments**
The church has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the church's balance sheet when the church becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
## _**Basic financial assets**_
Basic financial assets, which include trade and other receivables and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
## _**Basic financial liabilities**_
Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other payables and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
## _**Derecognition of financial liabilities**_
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the church’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
## **1.12 Employee benefits**
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the church is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
