Governance and management
The church is operated under two Approved Governing Documents:
-
The Parochial Church Councils (Powers) Measures Act 1956 as amended;
-
The Church Representation Rules (contained in Schedule 3 to the Synodical Government Measure 1969 as amended).
All church attendees are encouraged to register on the Electoral Roll and can stand for election to the PCC. Trustees are elected at the AGM.
Objectives and activities
The principal aim of the organisation is to promote in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the Church.
Public benefit statement
The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit, 'Charities and Public Benefit'.
The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St John the Evangelist, Carrington
Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit
The public benefit from:
-
the church mission, baptism, wedding and funeral services;
-
links with local schools and the residents' association,
-
the availability of community rooms for events, classes and meetings;
-
the churchyard for relaxation and exercise;
-
the maintenance of a listed building;
-
The building is used as a polling station for elections.
Summary of the main achievements during the period
The church has continued to serve the local community as best it can during the pandemic. The church Community Cafe continued until March when it was suspended in line with government guidelines. In December a Food Bank was started and distributes regularly. The community rooms have remained in use by therapeutic groups. With the church closed to public worship for long periods of time, streaming of services has been instituted and will continue. The church has remained available for weddings and funerals in accordance with goverment guidelines. Safeguarding training and checks are maintained and regularly reviewed.
The church has employed a Children and Families Worker to improve the services and support they are able to offer.
The trustees were grateful for a legacy from Arlene Ther. Grants have been received from the government Job Retention Scheme.
The major risk to the charity would arise from sudden changes in income and/or from substantial repairs to the building. In that respect it is not yet clear what the medium term effect of the pandemic will be. There are a number of maintenance works outstanding which it has not been practical to carry out during church closure.
The charity’s policy on reserves
The trustees recognise their responsibility to employees and the community. They have determined to adopt the advice of the diocese to maintain three months of general income as reserves.
