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. An excellent working relationship exists with the residents. The summer Carrington Festival was not held because of Covid guidelines but an Advent Fair did take place. The Community Cafe has continued to provide social contact for local people and successful work experience for young adults but has similarly been required to close at times. During this period the church ran a Food Bank to meet local needs.
Income from giving has been sufficient to maintain services. The letting of community rooms continued where possible despite operating at a loss until the final quarter of the year.
Grants claimed from the government Employment Support Scheme enabled the retention of the church caretaker. A grant for the Community Café was received from the Coop supermarket.
The major risk financial risk would be that arising from sudden changes in income or from substantial repairs to the building.
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.
