Trustees Annual Report (Parochial Church Council) year ending 31[st] . December 2021.

The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of Calne Blackland is a registered charity No. 1132032

2.

Aim and Purposes

Calne and Blackland Parochial Church Council (PCC) has the responsibility of co-operating with the Team Rector Revd. Bob Kenway in promoting within the ecclesiastical parish (as part of the Marden Vale Team Benefice), the whole mission of the Church, pastoral: evangelistic, social and ecumenical. Our services and worship put faith into practice.

Public Benefit Statement:

Objectives and Activities

The PCC is committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship within the 3 churches of the parish: St Mary the Virgin, Holy Trinity and St Peter, Blackland and to become part of the parish community. The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the parish and offers suggestions as to how more people might become more involved. Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer and scripture, music and Sacrament.

When planning our activities for the year, the incumbent and the PCC have considered the Commission’s guidance on public benefit and the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. We try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our parish community as we seek to fulfil our vision as a PCC as follows:

To facilitate this work, it is important that we maintain the fabric of the churches of the parish and Church House which acts as a ‘parish centre’ for meetings etc.

Administrative Information.

For the day to day running of the parish the PCC employs an administrator for 17.5 hours per week with occasional assistance from volunteers. The PCC has its own honorary secretary and honorary treasurer to transact its business.

Volunteers and parish staff.

We would like to thank all the volunteers who work so hard to make the parish the lively community that it is. We would particularly like to thank the 4 churchwardens and deputy wardens and the church officers especially the PCC Secretary and Treasurer .

There are many people engaged in a whole range of important tasks: welcoming people to services as sides persons, cleaning, fabric repair and maintenance, painting and decorating, flower arranging, bell ringing, reading and leading intersessions, serving, singing in the choir, ‘church watching’, leading groups for children and supporting the church schools as governors etc. There are far too many to name individually but their contribution to the parish community is invaluable.

We should mention in thanksgiving the vital work done by the parish administrator, PCC secretary, sacristans and organists.

Structure, governance and management

3.

The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. Calne and Blackland PCC consists of the Team Rector and Team Vicar, 4 churchwardens, and members elected by those members of the congregation who are on the electoral roll of the parish. All those who attend our services/members of the different congregations are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the PCC. There are also 4 members of the Deanery Synod who are automatically included as members of the PCC.

PCC members as trustees are responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance to the parish including deciding on how the funds of the PCC are to be spent. The PCC meets approximately 6 times a year and each meeting is preceded by a meeting of the Standing Committee which involves the clergy, churchwardens and other church officers and PCC representatives.

Trustee (PCC Members) Report for the year ending 31st December 2021.

In 2020, prior to the corona virus pandemic, around 25-30 people received Holy Communion in their homes monthly. In addition between 5 and 10 people attend a fortnightly Sunday evening service at a local Residential home which is conducted by members of the parish team. This has not been able to take place through much of 2020.

The Pandemic has also impacted the occasional offices (baptisms, weddings, funerals). Only 3 baptisms and 1 wedding took place in three the churches of the parish during the course of the year. 15 funerals and interment of ashes took place across the 3 churches and 2 churchyards (the latter being at Holy Trinity, Quemerford and St Peter’s church, Blackland). In addition there were 33 funerals conducted either in a crematorium or as a graveside service in a local authority cemetery.

During 2021 there were 211 people entered on the Electoral Roll of the parish.

The current “Parish share” membership figure upon which Salisbury diocese calculates share allocation remains 185 adults.

Achievements and Performance

Worship and Prayer

2020-21 has been both an exceptional and extremely difficult year due to the Covid -19 pandemic. This Coronavirus has impacted the life of everyone including the life of the church within the parish of Calne and Blackland and across the Marden Vale Benefice. Regular worship in our church buildings has been suspended several times due ‘national lockdowns’ and government restrictions. Instead, the Benefice Team has offered worship on-line via ‘Youtube’ and ‘Zoom’ digital platforms. This has been a new area of development requiring the rapid acquisition of a range of new skills! The offerings have been appreciated by many people though not everyone has been able to access them owing to a lack of the necessary technology. We have had the challenge of trying to include people in other ways through the distribution of printed materials and DVD recordings. During the year there has been ‘socially distanced’ worship both at the churches of St Mary and Holy Trinity. The worship spaces have had to be adapted to comply with government guidance and to reduce the risk of the spread of Covid-19. It has not been possible to adapt St Peter’s church for public worship due to its small size. However, we have conducted some worship in its churchyard viz outdoor Morning Prayer and the annual Animal Blessing. When it has been possible to worship in St Mary’s we have more recently been able to live-stream services so that they have been accessible to those who have been ‘shielding’ at home.

An All-age service has been offered via Zoom each Sunday morning at 10.00am which has enable families with young children to participate alongside adults in the latter half of 2021 such worship has now been able to take place in Holy Trinity church twice a month (1[st] and third Sundays).

In February 2020, prior to the introduction of the first ‘national lockdown’, we held a Civic Service at St Mary’s church at the request of the Town Mayor. Whilst Civic Services take place each year (e.g. on Remembrance Sunday) a celebratory service of this kind had not been hosted by the church for many decades. The Service was attended by the Calne Mayor and town councillors along with representatives of local organisations. This could not take place in 2021 but a similar service is planned in 2022 when we expect to welcome representatives from Caln Township, Pennsylvania, USA to mark the 40[th] anniversary of the twinning relationship between our two towns. November’s Remembrance Civic service took place in person but this year the whole of the service took place outside around the war memorial and was livestreamed to the wider community

5.

Sadly, both in 2020 and 2021, Holy Week and Easter worship needed to be conducted on-line. However, we were able to hold worship back inside our church buildings during Christmas 2021 and the Crib Service was held successfully outside gathering around an outdoor Nativity scene that had been specifically prepared by members of the congregation, the Calne Men’s Shed and children from Holy Trinity and Marden Vale Academies for 2020.

During Lent 2021 we prepared ‘Lent-in-a-bag’ which was distributed to people at home to use for reflection and meditation through each week of the season. In each bag was an object: sand, flowering bulb, rock, shell, wooden human figure and a candle for Easter Day. Compline was said via Zoom on Friday evenings and nightly through Holy Week. Posies of flowers were distributed to various households across the parish to mark Mothering Sunday. As ‘Lent in a bag’ proved such a success we repeated this for Advent 2021 with ‘Advent in a bag’. In this bag we placed items to help people to meditate and pray on the themes of hope joy, hope and peace.

In 2021 Holy Week ‘Stations of the Cross’ was set up in St Mary’s churchyard and people were encouraged to collect a palm cross to use as they made their prayer journey. An Easter garden was created in the ‘Calne Pocket Park’ and an Easter Trail was set up in Holy Trinity churchyard. This will be continued in 2022.

Schools

The PCC has links with several schools in the parish via both the clergy and through the foundation governors that it nominates for appointment by the Diocesan Board of Education. Four schools have Church of England Foundations 2 in the maintained sector: Marden Vale CE Academy (part of the Diocese of Salisbury Multi-Academy Trust) and Holy Trinity CE Academy; and 2 independent schools, St Mary’s Girls school and St Margaret’s Preparatory School. The schools too have been affected by the lockdowns and whilst they have been open throughout the year for much of this time they have only been available for the children of ‘key workers’. Earlier in children’s education continued to be conducted on-line until children were able to return to lessons taking place in school.

. This has also impacted ‘collective worship’ although the members of parish and benefice team have been able to input to some degree via ‘Zoom’ and ‘Microsoft Teams’. During the Autumn term it was possible to lead worship in school and the ecumenical ‘Open the Book’ team have also been sharing bible stories in person on a weekly basis. It’s hoped that during 2022 that as government restrictions are lifted there will be more school involvement. Jenny and Steven Colby have begun an after school club at Marden Vale Academy (Bible Detectives) in the Spring term.

Children and young people

The pandemic has meant that the normal parents and toddler, ‘Messy church’, Young people’s and children’s holiday clubs have not been able to taken place through much of 2021. A weekly bible story and children’s activity was made available on-line. However, both SMUFs (St Mary’s Under Fives) and the Wednesday Club have now begun meeting again

Marden Vale Team Benefice

Since August 2010 the parish has become part of the Team Benefice of Marden Vale which includes 3 other parishes: Christchurch Derry Hill, St Martin Bremhill, St John the Baptist Foxham. The Rev’d Linda Carter has responsibility for these. Linda was licensed as Team Vicar in December 2017. In June 2018 the Rev’d Teresa Michaux was licensed as Team Vicar (Housefor-Duty) within the Team. Teresa’s key responsibilities are within the parish of Calne and Blackland. In September, Rev’d Bob Kenway (Team Rector) announced that he would retire in July 2022 after 40 years of ordained ministry in the Church of England, twenty five of these having been spent in the parish of Calne and Blackland and the Marden Vale Benefice. In anticipation of this Calne and Blackland PCC met for a ‘vision and planning’ day’ at St Mary’s

6.

school on Saturday 2[nd] October. This was led by the Rev’d Rhona Floate who is Rural Field Officer for the Wilts Archdeaconry. From this day 3 groups have been set up covering the following areas Mission & Mnistry, Prayer & Worship, Resources (Building/Finance/People). These groups report to the PCC in order to develop the vision and further future planning.

Licensed Ministry in the parish

Currently, in addition to the Team Rector and Team Vicar, we are fortunate to have the ministerial support of several people who have the Bishop’s ‘Permission to Officiate’ (PTO) in the parish and across the Team Benefice and Deanery. Lois Cater, Jeremy Cresswell, Derek Frost, Hedley Ringrose, and Jim Scott are all retired priests who have led worship and helped with the occasional offices. Sadly, the Ven. Hedley Ringrose died in April 2021, as this annual report was being finalised in preparation for the APCM in May. The people of the parish are especially grateful for his wise and pastoral ministry and his friendship. In addition, we enjoy the active ministry of Enid Powell (LLM with PTO) and Jenny Colby (Church Army with PTO) who also lead worship and assist with the occasional offices. Steve Colby who was accepted for LLM training in 2018 was licensed alongside others at Salisbury cathedral on Saturday 18[th] Septembe . We also have two Lay Worship Leaders, Jack Robinson and Mary Pilcher-Clayton, who are authorised to lead worship in the parish and benefice and they have also been able to contribute to ‘Youtube’ services.

Deanery Synod

Four members of the PCC sit on the Deanery Synod. This provides the PCC with an important link between the parish and the wider structures of the church. There were 4 meetings in 2020/212 two of which were held on-line. The October meeting was held in person in St Mary’s church

Church House

Church House acts as a meeting point within the parish. In normal years it is in regular use by a number of parish groups (Parents and toddlers, Junior church, Mothers Union, CAMEO. Monthly soup lunches etc) as well as a range of community groups e.g. ‘Veteran Gamers’ (a group of young adults which play games of strategy), St Mary’s art group, the north Wiltshire Strings Group and the Calne and district community link scheme. However, during 2021 much of these activities have not been able to be carried out on the premises though they have returned from September.. From March to November 2020 Church House has been used as the base for the Calne Food Bank until it was enabled to move to independent premises nearby (making use of a vacant café). Church House is the place of administration for the parish. Through much of 2020 and 2021 the parish administrator has needed to work from home returning to work from Church House in September 2021.. The building is overseen by the parish buildings group. Whilst no buildings works have taken place during the pandemic period the back gate has been replaced in 2021 by members of the buildings group and the front door has been refurbished with a new security mortice lock installed. In December the digital printer was replaced which is used by the parishes across the benefice for weekly parish notices, monthly newsletters and regular printing of orders of service etc.

Pastoral Care and nurture

In addition to members of the congregations in each church offering general support to each other, the parish also has a number of Lay Pastoral Assistants. These are trained and supported on a deanery basis and are responsible to the parish clergy. There are 7 LPAs who are currently. Their role is multifarious and includes: taking Holy Communion to the sick and housebound, visiting nursing homes and leading worship in them; sharing in the preparation for baptism, confirmation and marriage; visiting the bereaved; schools support and working with children and young people; offering a ministry of prayer for healing and wholeness. Once again the Covid-19 pandemic has affected the ways in which the LPAs have been able to exercise this ministry especially has home visiting has not been possible. Most support has been give via the

7.

telephone and internet. We do thank Maggie Garratt, Jack Robinson and Sue Twyman who have stepped down from this role during 2021 after many years of committed service.

Social and community Events

We are glad to report that CAMEO (Come and Meet Each Other) have been able to start up again at the end of 2021 after 18 months of being able to do so. In 2022 it has been possible to start Lent lunches once again with donations going to Wiltshire Air Ambulance.

Mission and Evangelism

Helping those in need is a demonstration of our faith. Activity has been much curtailed and some of it has needed to move on-line. Some of those would attend Messy Church, Parents and Toddlers and the children’s club have attended the Zoom ‘All-Age’ worship on Sunday mornings. The Calne Food Bank has been of central concern. The impact of the coronavirus has seen a three-fold increase in the uptake of food parcels and members of the congregations have been active as volunteers. As a parish we seek to support the work of other agencies working beyond the parish boundaries: Christian Aid, The Sudan Fund, Dorothy House Hospice, the Children’s Society, and the RBL Poppy Fund. In particular for our 2021 Harvest appeal £1350 was raised for the work of the church in Hpa-an diocese in Myanmar following a personal link from within the parish. This has enabled a single mother, to buy 5 baby pigs and to feed them and support her extended family and provide income for the diocese to support families in the villages suffering from covid where there is little medical and social support because of political instability.

In September, the 3 churches of the parish participated in the Wiltshire Historic Churches Trust ‘Ride and Stride’ event. Several people participated in this raising a total of £982 (£491.00 came back to the parish).

Buildings’ and Friends’ groups

Each church in Calne and Blackland parish has its own ‘Friends’ group’ which raises funds to help maintain and improve the fabric of the building concerned. In addition, each church has representatives on the Parish Building Maintenance Group to monitor the need for repair and refurbishment. We were fortunate to appoint a new parish architect, George Chedburn, at the beginning of 2020.

Holy Trinity churchyard is now closed for new burials. Following consultation with the community and local authority the Ministry of Justice granted closure of the bulk of the churchyard. Around an acre of the site cannot be closed for legal reasons and therefore the maintenance remains the responsibility of the PCC. The Calne Town Council has agreed to carry out the maintenance of the closed sections liaising with the PCC to ensure a co-ordinated approach. It is planned that the maintenance is carried out with due regard to the importance of the churchyard as a living environment and a home to wildlife. It remains the PCC’s intention to create a new area for the interment of ashes with a memorial garden in due course. Churchyard ‘clear-up’ days have been established to help with the maintenance of those parts of the churchyard that remain the responsibility of the PCC.

The tarmac around Holy Trinity church which was causing damp problems inside the building has now been replaced with better draining material. This was made possible through the fund raising of Friends of Holy Trinity Church (FOHTC) with the additional assistance of a grant from Wiltshire Historic Churches Trust which is supported by the annual ‘Ride and Stride’ event each September.

Nurture

It is seen as an important aspect of our aims and objectives to provide opportunities for nurture for children and adults at different stages along their Christian journey. Prayer and study groups have been meeting remotely on-line. A Bible Book Club was established encouraging

8.

people to read various books from the bible (Mark’s gospel, the Book of Ruth and the Psalms). There has been follow-up discussion on-line. During Lent 2021 people joined in with members of other churches from the Calne Partnership of Churches reading the Archbishop’s Lent Book ‘Living His Story’ together and using it as a starting point to consider evangelism. There has been a regular bible study meeting via Zoom on Thursday evenings and this has become part of the Calne Partnership of churches Lent study for 2022.

Ecumenical relations

The parish is committed to working with other Christians in the town. We are formally represented on The Calne Partnership of Churches which meets regularly for prayer and worship and to work together in various aspects of mission e.g. The Calne Food Bank, ‘The Open Blue Bus’ (a youth project which has had to be suspended during the past year). The Partnership of Churches has also prepared on-line worship together for Holy Week and Easter. The ecumenical ‘Open the Book’ Team has continued to share bible stories on-line with local schools. There is also a praying group “Heart for Calne” which meets regularly to pray for the town and its people, and this includes Christians who are not currently formally a part of the Calne Partnership of Churches. This again has needed to be conducted virtually.

Volunteers and parish staff

We would like to thank all the volunteers who have worked hard this past year to enable the life of the church in the parish to continue during a period of great challenge. We particularly thank the 4 churchwardens and deputy wardens and the church officers especially the PCC Secretary and Treasurer and all those who support them and the wider ministry team. In particular we should thank those who have given of their IT expertise in enabling the church and parish to continue its function when we have so often been unable to meet and do things in a shared physical space.

Structure, governance and management

The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. Calne and Blackland PCC consists of the Team Rector and Team Vicar, 4 churchwardens, and members elected by those members of the congregation who are on the electoral roll of the parish. All those who attend our services/members of the different congregations are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and stand for election to the PCC. There are also 4 members of the Deanery Synod who are automatically included as members of the PCC.

PCC members are responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance to the parish including deciding on how the funds of the PCC are to be spent. The PCC meets approximately 6 times a year and each meeting is preceded by a meeting of the Standing Committee which involves the clergy, churchwardens and other church officers and PCC representatives.

Statement of PCC Members’ Responsibilities

The law requires PCC members to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the Parochial Church Council of Calne and Blackland's financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year.

9.

presume that the Parochial Church Council of Calne and Blackland will continue in operation. The members are responsible for keeping accounting records, for safeguarding the assets of the organisation and for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities should they exist.

Reserves Policy

The PCC does not currently have a specific reserves policy, funds are held in Endowment, Restricted and Unrestricted Funds, Unrestricted being split between Designated and the General Fund. The General Fund has only sufficient funds available for day to day needs and requires donations and other generated income to maintain a balance. Designated funds are funds set aside for specific planned projects; allocation can be changed to take account of a particular need.

A Designated reserves (Holding) Fund (pending allocation) is included in the accounts.

The PCC is committed to sound financial management.
