The Rev Paulette Mullings continues with the Parish as an ordained priest, and shares the responsibility for conducting services with Father David. Jane Jales continued as a licensed Lay minster, having been first appointed on 15.6.17.
On 08.02.22 Sam Davies resigned from the PCC. At the Annual Parochial meeting on 3 April 2022 Robyn Gray and Joe Gordon both resigned as Churchwardens. Robyn Gray was reappointed as a member of the PCC at the same meeting. Anthony Biggs was appointed as a Churchwarden at the same meeting.

The Electoral Roll
The number of people on the Electoral Roll as at 31 December 2021 was 315. As at 31 December 2022 there were 327 people on the Roll: 12 were added and none removed. The Electoral Roll remains an essential tool for all the Parish’s mission related activities and stewardship. The General Data Protection Regulation 2018 has implications for the administration of the Electoral Roll and are taken into account on its use. The new Electoral Roll was last prepared in 2019 and so a new roll will not be prepared until 2025.
Fabric Report
2022 has seen the church begin to find its feet again after the Covid pandemic years 2020-21. Since the lifting of the first lockdown in July 2020, Holy Innocents has remained open with regular in-person services and activities, but 2022 began with continued restrictions in place: no communion to be received by the congregation, no choir or singing, no junior church and no tea/coffee gathering. UK Restrictions were fully lifted by March 2022, although mask-wearing remained in place in church until Easter to protect vulnerable members of the congregation.
i
THE HOLY INNOCENTS AND ST JOHN PCC Report for the year ended 31 December 2022
Responsibility for the administration of Holy Innocents has been held by Hanno Dreyer, on a freelance basis up to September 2022. It was agreed by the PCC that Hanno will continue in this role for a further year, with a review in May 2023.
The bookings for the Upper Hall have slowly improved with the return of regular hirers such as Theatre Royal Bath and Neville Holt Opera, and new hirer Turtle Key Arts. Alongside our regular bookings in the Lower Hall, we have added First Filipino Baptist Church of London and SLAA. The West Hall and the Old Vestry, which were booked from January-July by Dalling Montessori, were empty for the rest of the year when the nursery left. There was interest from West London Free School to book The Lower Hall, West Hall, and Old Vestry for its junior school for 2023 @ £40,000 per annum (now confirmed start date 1[st] March 2023).
Routine and scheduled maintenance has been carried out along with some unscheduled repairs and minor works. These include the refurbishment of the accessible toilet. Other work included the installation of a new air-purifier (proven to hinder the spread of Covid19 and H1N1 Virus) in the Lower Hall, new LED light bulbs in the Upper Hall. and a new WIFI router with significantly increased broadband speed. The new kitchen in the Lower Hall has been greatly appreciated, and improvements to the Upper Hall kitchen, including a new hot water unit, are planned.
The subsidence claim for 125 Dalling Road was advanced with GHG Solutions acting on behalf of the insurance company, and a start date of 1[st] May to begin works was agreed with contractors Underpin and Makegood Ltd. On 5[th] December the tenants of the two flats were given notice to vacate the property by 30[th] April 2023. Once works have been completed, the intention is to refurbish the properties and rent at market rate. There has been ongoing concern about the state of the Vicarage, which needs significant work to bring the property up to standard including a new boiler and double glazing, and the property department of the Diocese is aware of this.
To save costs, there has been no garden contractor, and gardening has been undertaken on an ad hoc basis by members of the congregation. The trees to the north side will require some pruning in 2023 to prevent shedding of leaves into the church gutters.
Routine scheduled maintenance and inspections.

Financial Review
The accounts for the year ended 31 December 2022 include the Statement of Financial Activities, which shows where income has been generated, and how it has been spent, and a Balance Sheet showing our financial position as at 31 December 2022, in terms of assets, monies due and monies owed. The notes to the accounts give more detail on this analysis and also explain the accounting policies used in the accounts.
Our income has increased in comparison to last year, which is as expected with COVID-19 restrictions lifted. However rentals are not yet up to pre-pandemic levels. Upper Hall rentals were 15% less than in 2019.
The rising energy prices are reflected in our gas charges which rose to £12,435 (2021 -£7,943) and will continue to rise in 2023 as our current contracts expire and we are put on to the new higher charges.
After the limited ability to have choral performances during the pandemic, it was wonderful to have a full music program in 2022, funded by generous donations.
The General Fund continues to have a positive balance which is in line with our reserves policy to have funds on hand to cover emergency situations which may arise.
Reserves Policy
It is the PCC’s aim to maintain a balance on unrestricted free funds (if possible), which equates to approximately three months unrestricted general fund payments, to cover emergency situations that may arise from time to time and to ensure sufficient funds are available to cover running costs. As at 31 December 2022 the general fund is reporting a cumulative surplus of £176,169 (2021 - £178,062). With general fund expenditure amounting to £177,708 for the year, the balance held on the general fund at the balance sheet date would cover 11 months of general fund expenditure, which meets our reserves policy target. The PCC seek to continually improve the financial position through encouraging an increase in giving to the general fund, whilst attempting to reduce the costs of the day to day running of the church buildings.

THE HOLY INNOCENTS AND ST JOHN
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
Independent examiner's report to the Trustees of The Holy Innocents and St John ('the Charity')
I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 December 2022.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the Trustees of the Charity you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner's statement
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the Charity has prepared the accounts in accordance with 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) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn.
I understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity's Trustees as a body, for my work or for this report.

THE HOLY INNOCENTS AND ST JOHN
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
1. Accounting policies
1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant notes to these financial statements. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the "Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" issued in October 2019, the "Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" and the Charities Act 2011.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) published in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
The Holy Innocents and St John constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.
1.2 Income
All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Collections are recognised when received by or on behalf of the PCC. Planned giving receivable under Gift Aid is also recognised when received. Income tax recoverable on Gift Aid donations is recognised when the underlying income is recognised.
Rental income from the formal letting of church premises is recognised in the statement of financial activities in the accounting period to which the rental pertains. Rental invoices are issued in advance of the rental period and, consequently, rentals invoiced on or before the balance sheet date in respect of future periods are carried within deferred income.
1.3 Expenditure
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. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity.
Expenditure on charitable activities comprises costs incurred in the church's operations, including support costs and governance costs apportioned to charitable activities..
Grants payable are charged in the year when paid over, or when awarded, if that award creates a binding obligation on the PCC.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
1.4 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

1. Accounting policies (continued)
1.5 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Consecrated and beneficed property is excluded from the accounts by section 10(2)(c) of the Charities Act 2011. No value is placed on movable church furnishings held by the church wardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal since the PCC considers this to be inalienable property. All expenditure incurred during the year on consecrated or beneficed buildings and movable church furnishings, whether maintenance or improvement, is written off as expenditure in the statement of financial activities.
Tangible fixed assets are carried at cost, net of depreciation and any provision for impairment. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
| Fixtures and fittings | - 20% reducing balance basis |
|---|---|
| Office equipment | - 20% reducing balance basis |
1.6 Investments
Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the balance sheet date, unless fair value cannot be measured reliabily in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and shown in the heading ‘Net gains/(losses) on investments’ in the statement of financial activities.
1.7 Debtors
Debtors are recognised at the settlement amount. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid.
1.8 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash only.
1.9 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the church anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the statement of financial activities as a finance cost.

1.10 Financial instruments
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments.

10. Investment property
| Valuation At 1 January 2022 At 31 December 2022 |
Freehold investment property £ 1,000,000 |
|---|---|
| 1,000,000 |
Investment property comprises the freehold land and buildings located at 125 Dalling Road, London W6 which were acquired more than 80 years ago. The historical cost of the property can be reasonably estimated at £5,000, resulting in a revaluation reserve of £695,000 being established in the 2011 financial statements.
The market value at the year end is based on the value estimated by a local surveyor and estate agent. The property is formally valued every few years. The valuation undertaken on 12 February 2015 resulted in an increase in the valuation of £300,000. The most recent valuation, undertaken on 5 March 2019, resulted in no change to the property's value. On this basis, no depreciation is deemed appropriate.
The trustees do not consider the market value of the property as at 31 December 2022 to be materially different from the most recent valuation undertaken, and the carrying value in the financial statements at the balance sheet date remains £1,000,000.

11. Fixed asset investments (continued)
All the fixed asset investments are held in the UK.
Listed investments comprise the following:
353.07 COIF Charities Investment Fund income units held within the St John's Choir restricted fund (2021 - the same);
1,174 Prudential plc shares (2021 - the same);
29 Jackson inc shares (2021 - the same);
1,174 M&G plc shares (2021 - the same); 1,109.093 units of M&G Charifund (2021 - the same); and
1,277.07 CBF Church of England Investment Fund income shares (2021 - the same), which will be held for at least the next 12 months.
With the exception of the Choir fund, where the assets are held within a restricted fund, all investments as at 31 December 2022 are held within general funds. Originally the Prudential shares were a bequest to the church to help fund the redecoration of the chancel. The paintings for the chancel were acquired in 2018, but paid for out of general funds already held in the PCC bank account rather than liquidate the investments. Therefore to reflect this exchange of cash for investments between funds the investments held in the Redecoration of the Chancel Fund were transferred to the general fund at 1 January 2019 at the value of £16,459 (being the market value as at 31 December 2018).

The Friends Committee was a social committee that used to raise funds with which to buy sacred items for the church. As the committee no longer meets the balance in their accounts has been transferred to the PCC and we will continue to use these funds to buy sacred items for the church.
The H Bennett restricted fund has been apportioned by the executor of the estate for the redecoration of the Chancel in memory of Howard Bennett.
