Rector's Report- Year ended 31st De￿mber 2025 2025 has been a year wf(h a lot going onl Flrsl, it's worth saying that the faithful witness of our pattern of &Jnday 5eNces ha5 continued much as the prewous year, at St Peter's, and Holy Trlnoty. and St Marfs. Hoty Trintty Lvntinue5 to host school Servi￿$. and a number of weddings and funerals. It was very gratifyinB to see both HolyTrin6ty and 5t Peter'5 attrart unexpectedly large numbers of people at their carol services. A notable featilre of 2025 was the start of the ordalned ministry of ftevd Carly Taylor, our training curate. She was ordained deacon in Salisbury Cathedral in June, and a grdttfyin8 number of parishioner5 came to support her at thls servlce. She has thrown hetself the life of this parish. and the other parishes of the benefice, and shown real initiative in setting up a new monthly bereavement café at St Marfs. tt's a ssgnfficant thing for the whole benef5ce that we can be regarded as a training parish in this way. Carly has moved here from sussex along Wrth husband and teena8e thildren. We were dellghted to appoint Jemima Palfreyman as St Marfs Director of Muslc. also In June. She is well known in the Calne musical scene already, and was already a person who Worship￿ at St Mary's before her appointment. As well a5 leadln8 the adult cholr, in September she led the formin8 of a new junior choir called Young Volces. who rehearse weekly, and made thelr publlc debut during the harvest service, followed by WdriOUS Christmas semtes. It'5 been a real joy to see these young peoplejoin the rich tradltlon of church muslc. Also in lune lit was a busy monthll on the day of the Calne Camlval the PCC launched the Project 2026 Improvement and repair appeal for St Mary's Church- with a tar8et to raise £650.C*JO for toilets, improved kitchen ts¢ililie5, newlv accessible entrance wlth glass lobby, performance dais. mo¥ed font, roof repairs and solar panels, and other Improvements, and the appolntment of a communlty enga8ement officer. By the end of the year, con8re8atioTr members had ralsed a magnlflcent £95,((Q. ￿50 the PCC had approached the diocese to release up to a further £222,c￿ of a historic endowment fund, whose purpose is becoming obsolete. The grani bld writing process comes next. and an appeal to the wlder town-tO8ether with a programrne of fundralsin8 events. Pardchutin8 teddy bears off the church tower also made a very welcome return on Camlwdl Day. In December onother notsble landmark was achleved with the detision to leave St Marfs thurch unlocked evèry day, from about 9am to about 4pm. Thi5 has been very muth welcomed by many members of the wlder communtty. We agaln collaborated wfth the town coun¢ll In or8anisin8 a Christmas Tree Festival; thi5 time with musical accompanlment for much of the time the church was open. The usual round of school servl¢es was held thmughout the year, wlth the welcome addltion of 3 8roup from Sprinsftelds Academy for a Chrlstma$ Service. Durlng the week In term times varfous communriy-faung groups meet In Chur¢h House. and various 81ble study groups have been held here and In people's homes. A cause of notable thanks and prdise to God is that our finan¢ial giving ha5 impruled In the parlsh. meanln8 that for the rst tlme In many years thè parish 8a¥e about 85% of our Parish Share in 202S. It would be wonderful to get to IC(l% In 20261 As ever, huge thank$ 80 to the larye numbLY of churth rnernbers who work so hard to facilrtate the worshipping and communlty Ilfe of all our churchès. And particular thanks to all who serve as church officers for all thelr vltal. and often unseen, work. R•v Caspar Bush Statement of PCC Members.

These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
 the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
 it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources;
 the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition
criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).
Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor.
Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is
treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the
terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless
required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.
Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of
the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably.
This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can
be measured reliably.
**Offsetting**
**Grants and donations**
**Note 2 Accounting policies**
**Government grants**
The charity has received government grants in the reporting period
**Legacies**
**Tax reclaims on**
**donations and gifts**
Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has
been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in
the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the
charity or have been met.
**2.2 INCOME**
**Donated goods**
In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent
that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant
only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP).
**Contractual income and**
**performance related**
**grants**
Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations
when receivable.
**Income from interest,**
**royalties and dividends**
The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.
This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or
services or met the performance related conditions.
The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be
the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt.
In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an
expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution.
Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the
expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income
from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance
sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading
activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading
activities'.
Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets
and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.
Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be
exchanged) unless impractical to do so.
Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income
with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in
the SOFA.
**Volunteer help**
The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described
in the trustees’ annual report.

**2.4 ASSETS**
**Intangible fixed assets**
Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other
benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as
income from charitable activities.
Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations
and Legacies.
**2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES**
The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per
paragraph 10.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17
to 11.19, FRS102 SORP.
**Tangible fixed assets for**
**use by charity**
**Liability recognition**
Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or
constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the
obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
**Grants payable without**
**performance conditions**
The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 14.
They are valued at cost.
**Deferred income**
No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts.
**Provisions for liabilities**
A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently
measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the
reporting date
**Basic financial**
**instruments**
Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a

They are valued at cost.
The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have
physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody
or legal rights. The amortisation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 15.
The charity has heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic,
scientific, technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held and
maintained principally for their contribution to knowledge and culture. The depreciation
rates and methods used as disclosed in note 16.
This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and
any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the
year.
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost
categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs
by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support.
Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its
compliance with regulation and good practice.
The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade
discounts
These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least
Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are
valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year
end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be
measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment.
Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to
realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be
recognised.

**Creditors**
**Redundancy cost**
The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period.
Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition
