**Annual Report and Accounts of the Parochial Church of St John’s Church, Walmley for 20 24**
## **Aim and purposes**
St John’s Parochial Church Council (PCC) has the responsibility of cooperating with the incumbent in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish, the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical. The PCC is also responsible for the maintenance of the Church buildings.
## **Objectives and Activities**
The PCC is committed to encouraging as many people as possible to worship at St John’s and to become part of our church community. The PCC maintains an overview of activities throughout the Church and consider suggestions on how improvements can be made. In this connection presentations are made to the PCC by the children’s and youth minister, the curate and leaders of groups and teams that support the activity of the church.
When plannin g our activities for the year, we have considered the Commission’s guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the supplementary guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. In particular, we try to enable ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our church community through:
- Worship and prayer, learning about the Christian faith and developing their relationship and trust in Jesus;
- Provision of pastoral care for people living in the Parish;
- Practical support to those in need; and
- Missionary and outreach work.
To facilitate this work it is important that we maintain the fabric of the Church buildings and retain the services of the Church staff, support teams and volunteers.
## **Achievements and Performance**
The Parochial Church Council (PCC) of St John ’ s remains committed to offering a broad and spiritually enriching range of worship services, community activities, and outreach initiatives throughout the year. Our vision continues to be: **“ God ’ s Community, In the Community, For the Community. ”**
## **Leadership, Governance and Strategic Planning**
This year saw several important developments in the life and leadership of St John ’ s Church.

## **Maintaining the fabric of the Church buildings**
The job of looking after the church buildings is overseen by the Facilities Team. The group meets as required and reports to each PCC meeting and we thank these dedicated and knowledgeable people who give their time for this vital work. A special thanks to our Verger, who is closely involved in most of the work.
The new Building Vision Group (BVG) has taken on the job of investigating how we could improve our buildings for the longer term. An update on progress may be found in the non-statutory reports. During the year the following issues were addressed by the Facilities Team:
a) The need to replace coping stones on the east gable of the former nave was identified during earlier work in 2021. This work was carried out during 2024, and we are very grateful to the Sutton Coldfield Charitable Trust for a grant of £32,000 - covering the full cost of the work (apart from the VAT, which was reclaimable under a government scheme for listed buildings).
b) The task of scheduling the remedial works identified in the 2023 Quinquennial Inspection is still a work in progress
c) Curatage: this continues to be rented commercially via an agent, who arranges for any repairs using their own contractors. The considerable increase in income from renting to an outside tenant more than covers any additional repair costs and ensures the house remains in a good condition.
d) Thomas Law hall: This building remains only lightly used since the departure of the Womens’ Institute. The doors and windows require external redecoration and a quotation has been obtained.This work has been deferred to calendar year 2025.
e) AJ Hall: Upkeep of this building remains effectively on hold pending outcome of the Building Vision Group work)
5
f) Electrical work: The regular 5-yearly test of the fixed electrical installation was carried out by our usual contractor. No significant defects affecting electrical safety were found. The usual annual testing of portable appliances (PAT) was carried out by a specialist
Ongoing items which were first discussed in 2021 are as follows:
- Water temperature in the church kitchen. It may be that a permanent solution will only be found when major refurbishment takes place.
- Uneven slabs on church paths: The condition of some areas has continued to deteriorate Arrangements have been made to have the worst parts relaid in early 2025, and we continue to monitor the situation
## **Deanery Synod**
Five members of the PCC are the elected representatives on the Deanery Synod. This provides the PCC with an important link between the Parish and the wider structures of the Church. In 2024 there were three meetings of the Synod and a summary of these follows.
The February meeting was chaired by the Area Dean Ann Richardson and held on Zoom. Following the previous meeting, Christine Barnsley had volunteered to act as Honorary Secretary and having been nominated, was duly elected by the Synod. The main business of the meeting was a review of progress with the introduction of Oversight Areas within the Deanery. Using ‘break out rooms’ , Members first shared good news stories from their parishes to update the Synod on what has been happening recently. The Members then looked at how the new Oversight Areas fit in overall with the Deanery, particularly focussing on new ways of working between parishes in Oversight Areas. Finally, it considered how Oversight Areas work where parishes are in Local Ecumenical Partnerships, sharing ministry with another denomination.
In March a service was held at St John’s to welcome Bishop Michael to the Aston and Sutton Coldfield Deanery.
The second meeting of the year was held in June at St Margaret’s Church, Short Heath . The main focus for the meeting was safeguarding, which was led by the Diocesan Safeguarding team. They explained the Safeguarding standards and culture in the Church of England and Members shared what they considered provided a good environment for safeguarding awareness and practice. The meeting went on to consider how best to create a culture of listening and feedback in a church setting and explained safeguarding policies and procedures in a church setting. The meeting concluded by providing an update on safeguarding practice and the training that was available from the Diocese.
The final meeting of the year was in October and was held at St Chad’s Church . The meeting started by thanking the Lay Treasurer and Deanery Support Officer, both of whom would be retiring soon and asked for nominations to act in these two roles. The main focus of the meeting was to look at the children and youthwork within the parishes of the Deanery. There was considerable variation between the parishes represented both in size and scale of the children and youthwork, with some parishes having only a few children in their congregation while others employed children and youth workers. One of the benefits of oversight areas was the ability to run joint events for young people. The meeting also wondered if more joint events for parishes in the Deanery would be helpful. Further discussion on this topic was scheduled for June 2025.
## **Mission and Evangelism**
St John’s is committed to support Christian mission activity and to help those in need both in the UK and overseas as part of our fulfilment of the Jesus’ commission to us as recorded in Matthew’s Gospel.
6
The amount is based on 10% of the money received as Freewill Offering together with contributions from activities carried out by the Church. The Mission Partners supported during the year were Alex and Mari Walker (Reach Beyond Southern Africa), Laura Hennessey (working as a nurse with Mercy Ships)
## and ‘Open Doors’ who work with persecuted Christian communities.
There is a nominated member of the PCC for each of our mission partners. Mission payments to these and a number of other smaller missions that are supported, amounted to £28,569 (£27,973 in 2023). The Hardship Fund was initiated during the pandemic, but continues to provide support to the local community from donations made by church members. Donations totalling £410 were made during the year and the value of the Fund after payments made now stands at £4,436.
## **Financial Review**
Total receipts on unrestricted funds were £327,332 of which £162,000 was unrestricted planned voluntary donations and a further £36,003 was from gift aid.
Restricted donations of £14,056 were received, which were allocated to specific charities or restricted funds.
The total unrestricted resources used were £312,437, £14,895 less than incoming funds. Income was received from kitchen catering of £24,344 providing a surplus of £14,533, up £1,598 on the previous year.
Income from Church Centre and Hall lettings increased by £3,593 compared with the previous year. Overall this means our underlying surplus for the end of year was £14,895 on unrestricted monies. There was also a surplus on restricted monies of £19,987 primarily due to no spend on Double & Plant as a result of the vacant Associate Vicar post and income for Building Vision Fund and warm spaces grants.
The total balance sheet in all funds was £428,841 at 31st December 2024. A breakdown can be found in the Balance Sheet. The figure includes the purchased cost of the Curatage, Church Hall & Youth Worker flat.
## **Reserves Policy**
The income to the church from members of the congregation is heavily dependent on a few generous donors. The loss of one of these donors has been identified as a significant risk in our Risk Register. The church has 5 members of staff and the main church building was originally built in 1875. In addition to the church, there are 3 halls and 2 residential properties which all require maintenance, some of which can be unforeseen.
In the event of a significant loss of income, the church needs to be able to reduce or cease some operations in an orderly manner which would require there to be a minimum of three months essential expenditure and a maximum of six months essential expenditure held in reserve. This would allow the church to meets its obligations and comply with Charity Commission guidelines.
## **Volunteers**
We would like to thank all the volunteers who work so hard to make St John ‘s Church the lively and vibrant community it is.

## **Structure, Governance and Management**
The Parochial Church Council is a corporate body established by the Church of England. The PCC operates under the Parochial Church Council (Powers) Measure 1956. The PCC is a registered Charity.

In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
- prepare the financial statements on the ‘ going concern basis ’ unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy, at any time, the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## **PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST JOHN'S WALMLEY**
## **TREASURER'S REPORT**
## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024**
The Church Accounting regulations state that all PCC's whose gross income exceeds £100,000 per year must prepare accounts using the accruals basis, incorporating a Statement of Financial Activities, a Balance Sheet and notes to the accounts in accordance with the regulations. St Johns Walmley falls into this category and as such its accounts must therefore conform to the Regulations to provide a "true and fair" view of the PCC's incoming resources, application of resources and state of affairs in financial terms. These are set out on the following pages.
The Statement of Financial Activities must categorise funds into one of three legal types: 1) Unrestricted funds - which represents money that has been given to the Church on the general understanding that it will be used at the discretion of the PCC for furthering the mission and ministry of the Church, (i.e. commonly referred to as the General fund).
2) Restricted funds - which represents money that has been given for a particular purpose and they cannot and must not, be used by the PCC for any other purpose, for example a collection for a particular purpose, a fund raising event for a particular purpose or a donation or legacy for a particular purpose.
3) Endowment fund - money that has been given to the Church with the specific instruction that only the interest gained from the money can be spent . St Johns Walmley does not at present have any such funds.
## **Statement of Financial Activities**
Our total incoming resources exceeded our outgoings by £34,882 across all funds in the year of which £19,987 is restricted for Double & Plant/Hardship/ Building Vision/Warm Spaces funds. This leaves our total balances in all funds at £428,841. A breakdown of this can be found in the Balance sheet. The figure includes the purchased cost of the Curatage, Church Hall & Youth Worker flat.
## **Balance Sheet**
We had Cash at Bank & in hand of £278,585 (increase of £34,353 vs prior year mostly as a result of the surplus across unrestricted & restricted monies). Our net assets exceed our net liabilities by £285,750.
Kitchen catering holds cash in hand of £94 in the bank and cash of £90 (£54 in the bank and £29 in cash in the prior year).
Total funds have increased to £428,841 (up £34,882).

## **PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST JOHN'S WALMLEY**
## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ST JOHN'S WALMLEY**
I report on the accounts of the Church Council for the year ended 31 December 2024, which are set out on the following pages.
## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner**

## **Basis of independent examiner's report**
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting
records kept by the Church Council and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
- (1) Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act; and
