## **Public Benefit Aims of the PCC** 

The PCC (Powers) Measures 1956 states that the aims of the PCC ‘shall include cooperation with the clergy in promoting in the parish the whole mission of the church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical’.  Our mission as a church is to enable as many as possible to be drawn into the community of the parish church as worshippers of the Lord Jesus Christ.  Our cooperation in this endeavour can be summarised in two objectives: 

- To confer on all matters relating to the life, ministry, worship, service, evangelism and buildings of the church. 

- To collaborate with the Rector in taking forward the strategy and mission of the Church (within the PCC’s statutory powers). 

At the beginning of 2021 the PCC reviewed and affirmed our vision to “Refresh our Welcome”, “Raise and Resource Discipleship” and “Reach our community and city with the good news of Christ”. 

## **Review of progress and achievements** 

## **Our vision** 

In support of our threefold vision, during the year the PCC has in 2021: 

- Encouraged the continuation of the termly Welcome Course to help newcomers joining in person and online to become familiar with and committed to the church gospel vision and ministry 

- Recognised the value of small groups for pastoring members of the church as the pandemic has continued 

- Reviewed our outreach to our parish and supported the launch of a team undertaking door-to-door visiting and a fortnightly Parish Outreach Prayer Meeting 

- Supported the recruitment of staff to encourage and undertake disciplemaking ministry as part of our vision, including appointing Alex Hillman as Ministry Assistant to succeed Rob Canniffe, and Carole James as (part-time) Parish Mission Enabler for an initial six-month period, and advertising for a new Church Administrator (subsequently appointing Rosalyn Anderson) 

- Reviewed the pros and cons of online church services and other activities in the pandemic, and potentially in the future for those exploring faith or unable to attend in person 

- Reviewed the value of retaining the pattern of one united morning service established during the pandemic and decided that it should continue 

- Continued to seek to ensure that pastoral care is given to those made isolated by the pandemic or for other reasons

- Noted the importance of Easter and Christmas as seasons in which we can invite our parishioners and other guests to services, with many guests attending online and increasingly once again in person 

- Welcomed eight new members in baptism

- Continued to build links with Bignold School 

- Experienced the benefit of our new chairs in making the church building genuinely multi-purpose 

- Continued to support work discipling asylum seekers and internationals as a ministry of the church 

- Installed a handrail to improve safe access to the raised platform at the front of the nave in the church building 

- Held termly “Guest Events” to provide members with events to which guests can be easily invited during the pandemic, online or combined in-person/online: 

   - “Known and Loved: why we need and fear real community” 

   - “Why does the church need to talk about race?” 

   - “Hope for anxious hearts” 

## **Our staff**

- Held a Commitment Sunday in November to invite and inspire giving in support of our fresh vision. 

## **Other matters**

- Updated the Safe Haven Safeguarding Policy in line with recommendations from the Diocese and took steps to bring our own procedures for the safeguarding of children and young people in line with that policy. 

- Received reports from our Fabric Group, Administration and Finance Action Group and Mission Action Group.  Each group usually comprises an appropriate mixture of PCC and non-PCC members, to be responsible to the PCC for its relevant sphere of activity. 

- Given time to pray about and consider our strategic direction. 

## **Vision for 2022** 

We aim to know Christ and make Him known to our community and city.  To that end we continue to focus upon three priorities with a small number of key goals within each: 

## **REINFORCE OUR WELCOME**

## **Communication** 

During the year the PCC has sought to communicate our work to the wider church. This can be by speaking to the congregation at services or by regular reports via our church email newsletter.  Approved minutes are available to view in our church building. 

PCC is grateful to our secretary Louise Cumberland and our treasurer Dave Appleton for all the work they do to make much of the above possible.  Also to Andy Gray and Bill Myall (Churchwardens from APCM 2020), and Phil Courtier (Deputy Chair from APCM 2020).

## **Financial Review** 

The PCC is a charity and has been registered with the Charity Commission since 2009. This is in compliance with the Charities Act 2011, which specifies that a PCC with an annual income in excess of £100,000 must register.  Our charity number is 1132477. 

Volunteers who give their time and resources enable a large number of activities to be run by the church.  It is not possible to quantify the extent of this help, but without it the church could not continue its work. 

## **Income in 2021** 

The majority of the church’s income (96%) comprised gifts received from its members and attendees and associated Gift Aid (recoverable tax).  Other income comprised of rental of 26 Trinity Street and other sundry income.  The total income for the year was £368,555, the breakdown of which is shown in the following pie-chart: 


As in other years, the PCC wish to express their gratitude to those who give generously towards the work of the church.  During the height of the COVID pandemic in 2020 giving had fallen but in 2021 it increased by 12%, exceeding pre-pandemic levels. 

Other income, including rent from our investment property at 26 Trinity Street, remained similar to that in 2020, at £15,817. 

## **Expenditure in 2021** 

The church’s expenditure was £377,919, a 4.5% increase compared to 2020 (£361,702). The increase was mostly attributable to increased staffing costs including the employment of two Youth and Children Workers for the whole year (only part of the year in 2020).  The church’s expenditure reflects responsibilities in the parish, the diocese, and both nationally and internationally, and breaks down as follows: 

8 







Although there is no legal liability on the PCC to pay the Diocesan Parish Share, the PCC is aware of its responsibilities in relation to the financial position within the diocese.  Our staff costs do not include the cost of our Rector or Curate.  Both have their stipends paid by the diocese and therefore their costs should be set against the Parish Share.  The diocese also owns and maintains The Rectory and the Curate’s house, and owns the church building.  The Parish Share also supports mission and evangelism across the wider diocese covering Norfolk and Waveney.  In 2021 the PCC paid £90,000 for the year, the amount set by the diocese at the start of the year (the same as in 2020). 

## **Funds and Reserves** 

The church has the following restricted fund (that is, fund that the PCC is not free to spend however it pleases): the Bransby legacy endowment fund (£31,991). 

Unrestricted funds include the value of our property as well as money in the bank.  The church owns 26 Trinity Street, which provides a potential mixture of rental income and capital growth.  The valuation of this property as at December 2021 was reviewed by the PCC in January 2022 and increased to £483,00 (from £430,000). 

At the end of 2020, the church had unrestricted funds of £758,756 including the £483,000 attributed to 26 Trinity Street.  Other unrestricted funds included a fabric fund (£117,651), a training fund (£3,560) and tangible fixed assets reserve (essentially property that could be sold to release finances) of £11,888. 

The remainder of our funds, our general reserves, are essentially the money the PCC has that is free to spend.  Each year the PCC reviews its Reserves Policy and in January 2022 it reviewed it keeping the levels the same but adjusting the wording to: 

9 



‘Reserves’ are the financial resources the PCC has available to spend for the church’s purposes once it has met its commitments and covered its planned expenditure.  They are those funds that are free to be spent – i.e. they are not restricted or designated for specific purposes, nor held in an endowment fund, nor invested in fixed assets. 

We need reserves because not all our income comes in at the same rate as we spend it, and to enable us to continue meeting our commitments if our income is lower than we expect or if our expenditure is higher than we expect. 

The PCC’s policy is to maintain reserves of £60,000 which takes account of the following: 

- Three months’ budgeted expenditure in 2021 amounted to nearly £110,000; 

- Delaying paying three months’ Parish Share would temporarily free up £22,500; 

- PCC holds a Fabric Fund (expected to be £118,000 at the start of 2022) and this fund will help to absorb any major fluctuations in buildings expenditure. 

In addition to its reserves and the Fabric Fund, the PCC holds a Training Fund designated to cover the costs over 3 years of training a Children's Worker (expected to be used up in 2022). 

The PCC recognises that its current level of reserves significantly exceeds the level set in this policy.  This is as a result of the de-designation of the Jenny Lind fund in 2021 and a lower spend on salaries than planned in 2021. 

The PCC undertakes to review this reserves policy on an annual basis. 

At the end of 2021 our General Reserves stood at £142,657, considerably higher than the level set in this reserves policy.  This is because during 2021 the PCC took the decision to de-designate one of its unrestricted funds, the Jenny Lind Fund, thus moving this money into the General Reserves. 

The Jenny Lind Fund had been set up following receipt of a significant donation at the time that the PCC was looking to take over the previously independent Jenny Lind project, including the lease of the Jenny Lind Room and the employment of its young person’s coordinator.  The donation came with no restrictions but the PCC chose to set aside a large part of it to cover costs relating to Holy Trinity taking on the project. 

This fund has been a real blessing, helping to give the PCC the confidence that it could meet the financial commitment of taking on the project and, more recently, to employ a Parish Mission Enabler and start up a number of new outreach activities.  However, this parish outreach activity is core to our church’s mission, so the justification for retaining a fund for this work separate from our general funds has become rather weak.  Moreover, the amount of money remaining in this fund was disproportionate to the cost of activities planned.  In November 2021 the PCC therefore agreed unanimously to de-designate this 

10 



fund, making the money available for our wider church mission and outreach.  The donor who had provided the funds was consulted and confirmed that they fully support this decision. 

## **Outlook for 2022 and beyond** 

In 2021 we held our annual appeal for giving and we are hugely grateful to God and to our church members for responding positively to this appeal so that our regular income has increased. 

Our outgoings are also increasing at pace.  As well as rising prices for many of our regular purchases, fuel prices have sky-rocketed so the cost of heating the church, the church hall and the Jenny Lind room have gone up dramatically.  The Government recently increased the National Insurance rate meaning our staff costs have inflated.  But we also plan to do more, and this carries an additional cost.  We have recently employed a part-time Parish Mission Enabler; also we did not replace our second Ministry Assistant when Issy left in 2020 but we hope to do so in 2022. 

Our budget for 2022 shows a planned expenditure from our General Reserves of over £387,000, and this excludes significant maintenance work that will be funded from our Fabric Fund.  The PCC has also expressed a desire to employ additional resource in future, but our current levels of regular giving fall short of the expenditure we are already planning.  In the short term our excess reserves enable us to run with a deficit budget for 2022, but looking ahead we need to see further increases in giving to be able to continue our existing operations and to take on new initiatives. 

## **Risk** 

## **Safeguarding - Child Protection and Vulnerable Adults** 

The PCC has a formal policy statement and an appointed Safeguarding Officer. The policy is reviewed annually by the PCC.  A copy of the policy is displayed in the Church and the Safeguarding Officer provides a copy to all those involved in youth and children’s work and is responsible for monitoring compliance with that policy.  A full safeguarding report appears later in this document. 

## **Financial** 

At the end of 2021, the PCC’s free reserves had risen to £142,657, well above the level set in its Reserves Policy (see above).   However its designated funds have reduced, totalling £121,211 at the end of 2021 (from £210,170 at the start of the year).  Although set aside for particular purposes, these funds are not legally restricted. 

However, whilst this may appear to be a healthy financial situation, the current level of income is insufficient to sustain the level of expenditure that is required to deliver our 

11 



vision in the longer term.  PCC set an ambitious deficit budget for 2022 in order to be able to deliver our existing activities, but we cannot operate on a deficit budget indefinitely. 

Our PCC is committed to supporting a church graft in the coming year which may include the transfer of a number of families from Holy Trinity to the graft church.  Inevitably this will impact our finances as those families are expected to transfer their giving to the graft church.  At this early stage we do not have a picture of how much this will affect our finances but as a relatively small number of our families contribute a large proportion of our overall giving, there is the potential for the impact to be significant. 

The church accounts are reconciled monthly and any significant variance from the budget is investigated.  The accounts are subject to an annual assurance review in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 and the Church Accounting Regulations 2006, together with the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice 2005. 

## **Legislative** 

These include health and safety, disability and other discrimination and data protection. The PCC has reviewed the legislative requirements in these areas.  It is aware of a number of health and safety issues that need to be resolved, and is taking steps to address these. 

## **Reputational** 

The PCC is aware of the church’s activities (and those of its members) and has sought to conform to the highest standards associated with a religious organisation.  Whilst there is no formal process of review over the many activities undertaken, the PCC is prepared to investigate any concerns that come to its attention or are reported to it by members of the congregation or by outside parties.

## **Holy Trinity Church, Norwich - Fabric Report for 2021** 

## **The Church** 

The Church building, which is a Grade II listed building, was built in 1859-1861 is owned by the Diocese but the PCC are responsible for its care and maintenance.  The Diocese requires a professional inspection of the Church building to be carried out every 5 years (a Quinquennial Review) and is due next year 2022.  At the last review in 2017 it was noted that the property is well cared for and maintained and the shrubs and trees within the churchyard are well kept. 

During 2021 the following work has been carried out on the Church building. 

1. Decaying plasterwork on the Church interior wall of the North West transept has been replaced (£10,637). 

2. The Church doors, which were in a bad condition, have been repaired and repainted to a high standard (£6,148). 

3. A new handrail for improved safety when accessing the lectern has been installed (£154). 

4. Routine maintenance of the Church building incurred a cost of £9,600. 

Several future projects are currently being considered by the Fabric Group and include the following. 

1. Upgrade of the Church notice boards. 

2. Refurbishment of the Church Office. 

3. Upgrade of the Church kitchen and toilets. 

4. Refurbishment and upgrading of the Church lighting, vision and sound systems. 

## **The Church Hall, Cambridge Street** 

No major works were undertaken on the Church Hall. 

The ongoing maintenance work incurred a cost of £1,637. 

## **26 Trinity Street** 

Routine maintenance during the year incurred a cost of £136. 

We are indebted to Nigel Chapman for managing this property and thank him for undertaking this task. 

## **The Jenny Lind Room** 

We are grateful for the work which Carole James has undertaken in making the Jenny Lind Room more attractive and welcoming  for our Parish outreach ministry. 

During the year the cost of routine maintenance of this property amounted to £64. 

13 



Consideration is currently being given to upgrading the kitchen equipment. 

## **Thanks** 

The Fabric Group record their thanks and appreciation for the high standard of work undertaken by Nic Carver , our maintenance worker, who retired this year. We are also grateful and appreciative of the work carried out by Hesam Safari who after several years of dedicated service will be leaving us on 1st  April.  We also record our grateful thanks for the many members of the Church Family who help with the general upkeep and cleaning of the Church, and the other properties.

## **Safeguarding Report for 2021** 

This is the Safeguarding report for the fourteen months to February 28th 2022. 

Andy Gray continued to perform the Safeguarding role at Holy Trinity Church until the end of September 2021, when he handed over the responsibility to me.  Initially, there were a number of issues over data and system access, most of which have now been resolved. However, until yesterday (08/03/2022), I was still waiting to be given access to the ThirtyOneEight website, in order to check new DBS certificates.  After completing the required DBS training, I will now be in a position to complete the outstanding DBS checks. 

Going forward, we need to identify more backup for the Safeguarding Officer and the DBS Administer roles, to avoid single points of failure and to establish a resilient succession for the roles. 

A new HT email address, david.fairbourn@trinitynorwich.org has been set up for me, in order to keep HT Safeguarding related admin emails separate from personal correspondence and the email address for reporting safeguarding issues safeguarding@trinitynorwich.org. 

Holy Trinity has adopted the Parish Safeguarding Handbook 2018 with some minor amendments as agreed by the PCC in 2020. 

The online Parish Safeguarding Dashboard introduced by the Diocese continues to be monitored and kept up to date. It is visible to the Diocese as a check on compliance with safeguarding issues. 

The dashboard shows the following outstanding items, many of which have only just changed status and are being addressed: - 

- **Safeguarding Action Plan** – needs to be reviewed and approved by the PCC (Last reviewed 05/10/2020) 

14 



- **Responding to Concerns or Allegations** – PCC needs to review and approve our procedure to deal promptly with any safeguarding concern or allegation (including any suspicion of abuse).  This procedure is to be reviewed annually.  (Last reviewed 23/11/2020) 

- **Known Offenders** - Known offenders, and others who may pose a risk to children or vulnerable adults, must be effectively managed and monitored in consultation with the Diocesan Safeguarding Adviser.  The incumbent and Parish Safeguarding Officer to confirm that they are aware of the above requirement, and will comply when applicable? (Last reviewed 05/10/2020) 

- **Use of Social Media** - The PCC to confirm that the church is following national guidance regarding the use of social media. 

   - The PCC has to approve all uses of social media for its activities. 

   - The PCC has to ensure that there is a named person to whom all workers are accountable. 

   - All church officers who use social media on behalf of the church to be made aware of the guidance in Section 12 of the Parish Safeguarding Handbook. 

- **Learning and Development** - The PCC has to plan for the full implementation of the Safeguarding Learning and Development Framework from January 2022. This is actively underway. 

   - Foundation Pathway - This learning pathway must be completed by churchwardens, PCC members, vergers and anyone in a role which involves work with children, young people or vulnerable adults. 

   - Leadership Pathway - This learning pathway must be completed by Parish Safeguarding Officers and anyone who significantly influences the culture of the church. 

- **Training for Key Roles** - Everyone who plays a key safeguarding role must complete the relevant training. 

   - Parish Safeguarding Officer - The PCC must ensure that the Parish Safeguarding Officer undertakes the required safeguarding training. Active. 

   - DBS Administrator - The PCC must ensure that DBS Administrators undertake the required safeguarding training. Active. 

   - PCC Members - The PCC must ensure that all their members undertake the required safeguarding training. Active. 

- **Church Activities** - Reviews and risk assessments were completed for Creche, Steppers, Easter Egg Hunt, Holiday Club, Jenny Lind After School Club and Open the Book activities.  Risk assessments on the remaining children and young people’s activities are being reviewed having last been undertaken in October 2020. 

- **Safer Recruitment Survey and People Management** – Need to complete the survey, which relates to the new Safer Recruitment and People Management Guidance and confirm that the PCC is compliant. 

   - Procedures, as contained in the Parish Safeguarding Handbook 2018, are now in force.  The additional safeguards (application form, interview and two references) in place does mean that recruitment of volunteers takes 

15 



longer.  It is not possible to recruit new, unchecked, or untrained, volunteers at short notice.  I can confirm that this procedure continues to be followed, and that DBS checks and training are being undertaken, where we have been informed of new leaders and helpers. 

The PCC has confirmed that it takes “due regard” of the House of Bishops’ Safeguarding Policy and Practice Guidance. 

25 DBS checks, both new and at renewal, have been completed in 2021.  1 check for a PCC member remains outstanding.  There are 8 new volunteer DBS checks awaiting my access to the ThirtyOneEight system. 

40 Confidential Declaration forms, either new or updated, have been completed in 2021. 

Leaders and helpers are unable to work with groups, or carry out their roles, either face to face or via Zoom, until current DBS checks and up-to-date Confidential Declaration forms have been completed.  The Youth Workers have been informed. 

Lay Ministers and Authorised Worship Assistants checks and training are the responsibility of the Diocese.  Checks and training for anybody with any of these roles are not monitored by the Holy Trinity Safeguarding Officer.  It is assumed that anybody in these roles is fully compliant.  Individuals in any of these roles are responsible for ensuring that they are up to date with all requirements including training. 

47 volunteers have completed Safeguarding training in 2021.  It has previously been agreed by PCC that relevant training must be completed within 3 months of commencing in any role. 

During 2021 we have been informed of six possible Safeguarding concerns.  In addition, various procedural queries were raised by staff and volunteers.  The Diocesan Safeguarding Office was contacted where necessary for advice and confirmation that actions taken were sufficient.  After the initial responses, no further action was required, although staff and volunteers will continue to remain supportive and vigilant for those involved.

## **Norwich South Deanery Synod Report for 2021** 

As churches emerged from the pandemic, discussions were ongoing about continuing streaming for its increased reach and helping those nervous about returning.  Discussions around the eco church agenda continued – whilst it was recognised this could not supplant the great commission, environmental care was a part of care for God’s creation and a way of loving our neighbours.  Cost issues for churches’ unnecessary upgrades on old buildings would be significant. 

The clergy wellbeing covenant was also of current importance with relevant lay roles discussed. 

Questions about communion had been escalated with regards to safely continuing communion in two kinds with individual cups. 

Questions regarding Living in Love and Faith were ongoing; it is important to be orthodox on questions of marriage without being alienating or unwelcoming. 

We are pleased to now have full lay representation as these important questions are progressed.

The finan¢ial stalements are prepared in sterling. ￿lch is the funth.onal currency of the Charity. Monetary

In 2021 the PCC'S strategy for progressing this ministry was developed". this is now integral
to the church's overall parish outreach which is funded from Ihe general funds and no clear
plan had emerged from the strategy for how the Jenny Lind fund would be used within ils
existing designalion. The PCC therefore approved the de-de5ignation of the Jenny Lind
fund and the remaining lunds were IransferTed lo the general funds in 2021. Ongoing
ministry in the Norlh East of the parish wll be funded from general funds. The donor who
had initially prowded the fvnds was consulted and supported this decision.
Restricted funds are those that ale stjbject to specrfic Injsts. For the purposes of these accounts, the funds
held under this heading are the 'income funds. i.e. they mLtst be spent on the spe¢ified purposelsl urithin a

and depiecialion chaiges are allocated on the portion of the asset's use.
Grants and donations are accounted for vthen paid over, or ￿en awarded, if that award creates a binding
obligation on the PCC. The diocesan parish share Is accounted for when paid. Because il is not a legal
liability. any parish share unpaid al 31 De¢ember is not provided in these finanoal statements except to the
extent that the PCC has resolved to pay the shortfall. All other expenditure is generally recognised when il
