## **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.

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St John the Evangelist,Carrington Evangelist, Carrington**
## **for the year ended 31 December 2020**
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St John the Evangelist, Carrington (the charity) for the year ended 31 December 2020.
## **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 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 all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
## **Independent examiner’s statement**
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:
1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records.
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.
