The PCC continued to develop its bank of risk assessments to identify all risks associated with its mission and ministry. Procedures are then put in place to manage those risks and minimise their impact on the life of the church, particularly vital this year of a pandemic with Covid 19. Action in the main areas of risk has been taken. Our H&S Officer Rev Edward Bowes-Smith (Vicar) was replaced in Sept 2020 by Rev James Radcliffe (Associate Vicar).

The PCC has adopted a reserves policy which ensures that at least three months worth of expenditure is kept in cash and shares. It is PCC policy to try to maintain a balance on free reserves (net current assets) which equates to at least three months' Church Activities payments. This is equivalent to £43,219 (2019 - £49,307). It is held to smooth out fluctuations in cash flow and to meet emergencies. The balance of the free reserves at the end of 2020 was £240,860 (2019 – £231,554) which is considerably higher than the target.

Investments are only made in approved low risk funds approved for charity use. All assets are insured and levels reviewed annually and approved by the PCC.

The PCC and Safeguarding Team oversaw the church’s compliance of statutory requirements. Church inspections helped to identify possible risks and a plan of action to remedy these was put in place. We aim for all procedures to be reviewed on an annual basis and formally reported to the PCC.

The general functions of the PCC are stated within section 2 of the Parochial Church Council (Powers) Measure 1956.

Our objectives are expressed in our 2020 Vision Strategy of Three Values (Gathering around God’s word to build together an authentic Christian community, Growing as lifelong disciples of God’s Son, Jesus Christ and Going out in the power of God’s Spirit to share the Gospel in word and action), Two Parishes (Eastgate and Carlton) and One Church (Two parishes operating with one vision, one PCC, one staff team).

In 2020 we provided the following public benefits:

In 2020 we continued to shape our church life around five main purposes:

Usual Weekly Attendance: Eastgate & Carlton 72 (60 adults and 12 children and youth) in 2020. Usual Livestream Sunday Views: 290 Eastgate & Carlton in 2020.

The church buildings continued to be used in line with government guidelines. In early 2021, The fabric team oversaw the relaying of the front paving into a ramp with new noticeboard, new bike racks were installed, also new key lock system into church & general maintenance & repairs as identified, eg benches.

The PCC complied with the duty under section 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016 (duty to have regard to House of Bishops’ guidance on safeguarding children and vulnerable adults.)
