Independent Examiner Richard N Chapple, Bsc {Econ) FCCA WBV Limited The 3rd Floor Langdon House Langdon Road Swansea. SA18QY Governing Document and organisational Structure The Church in Wales is a Provin￿ within the Anglican Communion and seeks to advance the Christian religion though a world-wide mission. The Ministry Area of Llantrisant (referred to as Llan hereafter) was created by decree in 2021 and is part of the Diocese of Llandaff. Llan has 12 Churches, Ss. Illtyd, Gwynno & Dyfodwg Llantrisant, st. Michael's Beddau, St. David's Miskin, St. Illtud's Llanlwit Fardre, St. Illtyd's Llanharry, St Paul's Pontyclun, St. Anne's Talygarn, Ss.Julius & Aaron Llanharan, St. Peterfs Brynna, St. David's Tonyrefail, St Alban's Tonyrefail, St. Barnabas Gilfach Goch. Note- St. Michael's Beddau & St. David's Miskin are daughter churches of St. Illtyd, Gwynno & Dyfodwg, Llantrisant and they are included in the accounts for that church and not mentioned separately. With the exception of the Clergy MAC members are appointed for 1 year with the exception of the Wardens and the Lay Chair who were appointed {during covid restriction) by the Bishop for a tem of 3 years (commencing January 2021) Induction and Trainlng of New Trustees There is no formal induction training, trustees are already members of the Church and so are aware of the goals and aims of the Church. Their roles and responsibilities are communicated verbally and through relevant documentation from the Charty Commission. Several are already trustees for other organisations. Objectives and Aims The objectives and aims of the charity are the promotion of the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social, and ecumenical in the Ministry Area (here after referred to as the MA). Short term plans and objectives are agreed with the Diocese (referenced in the text below). It is the responsibility of the MAC and the Clergy to work together and co-operate in

all matters of concern and Importan￿ to the MA for the promotion of the objectives and aims. As required by the Charities Act 2011, the MAC has given due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission in respect of the operation of the public benefit requirement. The activities undertaken fulfil the MAC'S (purpose for the public benefit are described hereunder). Charitable Actlvltlas and Maln Achievements The Ministry Area The main activities of the MA during the year have been to promote the mission of the Anglican Communion and spread the Gospel to the people of our communities. The MA provides pastoral care, including visiting the sick at home, in hospital and care homes, visits to local schools, and Ca￿leS out the usual weddings, baptisms, and funerals. 2024 Saw most of the difficulties encountered by the pandemic removed tough numbers have yet to fully return to the pre Covid levels. Meetings were held for the MAC and some Church committees as was appropriate. MAC meetings (normally every /) moved venue around the MA to ensure fair and equal visibility to all our congregations. During the year the original model for the MAC structure was varied with the position of Vicar in Tonyrefail finalty being filled. The Rev. Rick Gratton left the Ministry Areas following his appointment in Maesteg. The varied MAC now covers all the Clergy, the Wardens, Lay Chair, Treasurer and one representative from each Church {12). A substitute is allowed for in respect of the 12 Churches if absence were to prevent full representation. Some Churches currently fail to provide a representalive to the MAC although there is clearly representation by the clergy selving each 'patch'. 2024 again failed to secure any volunteers to act in roles for the Ministry Area although there is finance coverage in all the areas of the Ministry Area. Sadly. the Treasurer acting on behalf of the Llantrisant Group passed, Mr Roger Hambley's long ser￿iCe was recognised by the whole Ministry Area and particularly by his finance team colleagues. Finance is effectively managed on a unit by unit basis and the Ministry Area is striving to have Church by Church accounting available through the My Fund Accounting system much of this has been achieved during 2024. Thus far, the Finance team has been SUC￿SSfUl in meeting the needs of the Ministry Area but only at an increased cost of the My Fund Accounting system, and the requirements for high level Charity Commissions accounting regime. The time expended in using the system is notsble and detracts from securing volunteers in taking on unit roles or the role of the Ministry Area Treasurer. Activities were held as people were no longer so fearful of larger meetings. The income flow continues to "pick up. details by way of a summary are attached at the foot of this narrative. The MA responded well financially to appeals (international,

National and Local), there were several such appeals. The response in a period where incomes of individuals was restricted as the cost of living "crisis. continued to bite. Aid locally continued in normal fashion. Movement outside the original parish structure saw people continue in attending in different sections of the MA for the first time, although many remain strongly loyal to their "local" Church. The flow of food to local Foodbanks has been maintained in ongoing hard times experienced by our communities. (Being a very large MA there are several distinct communities). Christian Aid week was marked across the MA as was Remembrance Sunday at several locations. Some of the Remembran￿ were broadcast to a wider audien￿. The Annual General meeting combined with a celebration of the woth of the MA was held in April 2024. The AGM carried through the requirements of the review and pledge system to be commenced in 2025. Reports of all accounts were tabled. The requirement to use the Diocese accounting system had radically changed Ihe nature of reporting. The MA continued to run on a devolved basis with an additional ￿ntral fund for the administration of the MA which also had to use My Fund Accounting. Training in the use of this new system from the DI0￿Se was expanded from the inadequate initial position. Variation in coding transactions and varied versions of the software added to the difficulty and only past the year end was the MA able to prepare a fully and accurate accounting record for the MA and the diocese. Preparation of Charty Commission (CC) accounts to the more rigorous status continued to be a continuing problem. The cost in external help was extensive and had not been foreseen at the time of creation of the MA or all other MAS in the Diocese. In 2024 this figure is in excess of £10,000 a figure that the MA has no budget for and is a drain on the other tasks the MA is required to perfom and finance. Thanks, must be extended to the Garth Ministry Area who accountant chaiged us below rate costs to allow final sub mission of the accounts. MA thanks also go to Rev Peter Watson who provided aid to us and others who met this problem. During 2024 the promise of increased support from the DI0￿Se Booking keeping service was flout but this would be unlike to reach the Llan MA before Easter in 2025. The MA has progressed forward afteT another very difficult year has however progress continued. The Offi￿rS of the MAC and the Council had to be formed by nomination (as meetings and voting secretly became impossible under Covid) at the time of inception of the MA. Hen￿ the nomination by the (then) Bishop). As in 2023 during 2024 we were able to confinn the sub-wardens for the churches democratically. 2024 saw the first instances of sub-MA level being unable to fill posts, an no volunteers again came forward to take on roles at the MA level {other than the replacemenl treasurer serving the Llantrisant cluster of Churches. This pattern may lead to the structure of conducting business activities (not to be confused with cleric duties) at a more centralised level. In terms of the Charity Commissions needs the Commission has been infonned that all 12 Churches will operate under the former Llantrisant Parish registered number and the name change has similarly been notified as required.

The MA collaborated with the Diocese to prepare an ongoing plan for future activities across the MA communities. The plan has reviewed through the mechanism of an Arch Deacons visitation programme. In 2024 an evangelical plan has been created and lodged with the Diocese, a statement noting the condition of all the buildings and potential use of such buildings has similarly been lodged with the Diocese under the Archdeacons visitation process. The report into the "fabric. of the individual Churches classified churches into the RAG classification (Red, Amber, Green>, several were noted to be Red and therefore noted to have no foreseeable way of supporting themselves. Without change these Red classified units will continue to incur losses and require the support from other Churches to provide Ihe current range of services to the local communities. This is putting a financial strain on the Green and Amber classified and a perverse incentive on the Red units to instigate any changes to upgrade the Red score they currently hold. It is correct to reflect the degree of financial support the Diocese has extended to MA'S around the Diocese the position would be less healthy but for the temporary support given. WIFI and incoming payments routines apply to all of the 12 Churches, and those lacking this service hope to have completion of a prog ramme the installation completed in 2024. Broadband speeds and signal availability have been irritants to securing these links., not only through technical engineering problems but also some very thick walls in some of our historic buildings (there are 5 such listed buildings) Maintaining our buildings remains a constant duty altended to, and particularly the historic buildings noted above (Grade 2). The needs of all our Church Fabric have been addressed more fully during 2024. The work that has been undertaken is noted below. A data base system is in constant preparation to ensure ongoing update of all the needs that may have to be fa￿d. This pattern of activity should ensure requirements do not become increasingly difficult or unmanageable or un-fundable through passage of time, delay and Ignoran￿ of needs. The MA commenced and grew the use ofthe Attendance App, and the Green Energy Footprint Tool in 2024 in Complian￿ with the wishes of the Diocese. The MA works tirelessSy to cover DBS security checks across Communities. The process of ensuring all who need to be screened is now in place. The Administrator (part time) continues to ensure the smooth scheduling of Services. Funerals, Baptisms and Weddings etc can be effectively managed across the 12 Churches. essential as the MA continued to operate with one Clergy member "down" The MA collaborated in the creation of a new Deanery structure and one of the MA Clergy Leads the new Deanery of Eglwysilan (made up of 6 Ministry Areas acting together). The MA multi location Mothers Union (MU here after) has been co-ordinated into a single MA structure to ensure efficiency and effectiveness and avoid duplication in that excellent organisalion. Drawn from two of our 12 Churches the Diocese "Away

from it All. (AFITA) programme is effectively managed for the whole Diocese. The scheme offers the opportunity of a holiday in a fixed Caravan (Porthcawl) to disadvantaged families in the Diocese. The scheme offers 28 weeks of holidays to such families and 7 of those weeks are offered families in the Diocese of either Swansea and Brecon or Monmouth. Mosl of the families using the free facility will probably never have had a holiday of any kind before or not for a very considerable number of years. Our collective mission noted in our ongoing plan set in 2024 for 2025 onwards will be subject to regular Ach Deacons visitations (every 6 months). The next section notes all the activities undertaken by individual Churches (or groups operating togelher) across the MA communities. The requirement for maintaining services is omitted for the text as that is a "given" add to that the number of funerals the MA staff assisted with (in excess of 300 across the MA) baptisms and weddings home visit etc. that must be undertaken. Fabric review and tssks undertaken In year Buildings, Fabric and Faculties A status of buildings plan was drawn up in 2024 and will assist future planning and developments for the Ministry Areas buildings. A copy has been lodged with the Diocese. During 2024 work has continued in respect of the Fabric of our 12 Churches.

The Ministry Area main Achievements Examples of successes. Llan wellbeing community hub helped many people with benefit advice and help to save money on household bills along with support for mental and physical health needs.

We offer a coffee and catch-up on fridays in Llantrisant for people to have a chat and ask questions about what we are doing. Dementia support group helps those living with the condition and their carers. A number of weekly coffee momings across the Ministry Area give people a Chan￿ to get together outside of church servI￿s. We offer toddler groups for parents and carers to have somewheie to take the children for company and fvn. We've welcomed a number of choirs in to our churches for Con￿rtS. We hire out our halls to scouts. brownies, dance and exercise groups which gives us connection in the local aiea. We've held fayres, fetes and plant sales in the Ministry Area to engage with the community. Llantrisant Christmas tree festival brought many people into church and helped them engage with the Christmas story. Many schools held their Christmas concerts in our churches which helps us to maintain connection with them.

This is exercised through the provision of Regular public worship and pastoral work, including visiting the sick and bereaved; the teaching of Christianity through Sermons, films. and small groups, plus the taking of Assemblies in local schools: the promotion of Christianity through special SeNi￿S where possible. This across 12 open and active Churches. Signed on behalf of all trustees. Fr. V. L Gardner Mlnistry Area Leader Signature Gareth L Jones Ministry Area Treasurer Slgnature 2911012025 Date 11
