Trustee's Report

The member presents the annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020.

Objectives and activities

Objects and aims

The primary objective of the charity is the promotion in the ecclesiastical parish of the whole mission of the church.

Public benefit

The trustees have complied with their duty to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by Commission; the trustees consider that the charity meets the public benefit requirements of the Charities Act 2011 by carrying out its normal activities.

Achievements and performance

The Halas Team Ministry exists to serve the people of the town of Halesowen and the districts of Cradley, Hasbury Lapal, Romsley and Hunnington and to proclaim the Kingdom of God in prayer, word, action and life through offering a distinctively Anglican expression of the Christian faith. How this has been explored and expressed during 2020, we hope to express in the Team and individual church reports which follow.

It is stating the obvious to say that the Covid-19 pandemic significantly affected the life of the Team, both in terms of churches being sporadically closed or open only for private prayer and also, more importantly, in the lives of people in our community being marked by grief - often in the face of being unable to be present with sick or dying loved ones and having funerals with restricted numbers in attendance - and sometimes loneliness and negatively affected mental health.

We sought to respond to the new situation in several ways. Firstly there has been a ministry of pastoral care by phone call or door step across all churches. Secondly we have set up a new weekly paper mailing of sermons, readings, intercessions and meditations for those not online. Thirdly we now have a much stronger online presence: Morning and Evening Prayer daily, a sermon and Eucharist with Spiritual Communion on Sundays, a mid-week meditation from our Readers, Brick Church and so on - all on Facebook. We certainly didn’t manage a shifting situation perfectly but all have been, we hope, exceptionally well received and have brought encouragement in tough times.

Church buildings had to close for three months during the first lockdown. They were then able to reopen for private prayer and eventually for public worship, a pattern which has been subsequently repeated. We owe a debt of thanks to our churchwardens for their hard work and skill in ensuring that prayer and worship has been able to happen safely and within guidelines. Similarly we owe thanks to the Parish Office staff - working in part from home - for their helping baptism families and wedding couples to re-schedule the life events they have so much been looking forward to.

Trustee's Report

Eva Field retired after well over two decades of dedicated work as our Parish Secretary and PCC Secretary at the end of the year; and Anne Palmer mid-year but still offering her services to the end of the year. Sadly we were unable to say thank you to them as we ordinarily would - there may still be opportunity - but we owe both a debt of gratitude for their hard work, skill, knowledge and dedicated commitment to the life of the Parish. After extensive interviewing Lizzi Featherstone was appointed as Parish Administrator from the New Year and we offer her our full prayer, commitment and support in a demanding role.

Other aspects of church life continued, albeit within restrictions. Charles Morgan and Spencer both completed their Reader training very successfully and were licensed at a moving service in the cathedral. We look forward very much to their ongoing ministries, joining Susan, Karen and Pat to form an exceptionally talented team of Readers, a real blessing to the Parish. Outside the Parish Jonny Gordon and Sarah Bardell were ordained priest and Foluso Enwerem deacon: we had enjoyed having all three for placements in the Parish. We are reminded that God is calling all of us to Christian ministry. For some that ministry may be authorised or licensed by the bishop. Encouraging people in hearing and pursuing vocations and wholeheartedly supporting them must be an ongoing priority for our life together.

Our Church Schools have had a tough year, staff having to negotiate Covid restrictions and online learning. All have responded amazingly and we continue to hold the staff and children at Cradley, Halesowen, St Kenelm’s and St Margaret’s and Schools in our prayers.

We continue reviewing our responsibilities under the General Data Protection Regulation Legislation. Systems are in place which we continue to monitor. The Church Safeguarding representatives continue to meet regularly to keep review the responsibilities. Measures are in place for new appointments across the Team including interviewing and the necessary checks being carried out. Work in connection with employment and pensions continues. We are enormously grateful for those who are involved with this ongoing work.

We continue to be careful to ensure our finances are kept in order. We have held several finance committee meetings during the year to monitor this. Income is down from last year and outgoings have been reduced where we can to compensate.

The past year leaves a legacy of uncertainty; and of faithful hope. The eventual size of our worshipping congregations is uncertain, though signs are encouraging. We are struggling to fill lay roles, notably those of churchwarden and treasurer. Services may not return to their pre-pandemic pattern. We are aware that when one of the stipendiary clergy leaves they will likely not be replaced. And paying Parish Share is not easy, though levels of giving have held up surprisingly impressively during a difficult year. This may be an opportunity to pause and ask ourselves afresh what our collective mission is and what the roles and callings of our constituent churches are; and in doing so ask what things we have been unable to do we are called to return to and what not and to what new things we might be being called. We look to the future with faith and with hope.

That faith and hope is above all in God’s faithfulness towards us. But it is massively encouraged by the dedication, gifts and passion of the people of this Team lay and ordained, paid and voluntary, licensed and unlicensed. We are truly blessed in the people we have worshipping in our churches, volunteering in many different roles in our life together in Christ. For which we offer our profound thanks.

Trustee's Report

Financial review

Policy on reserves

It is the Policy of the PCC that the Parish Office and each District Church shall endeavour to establish and maintain a reserve on their General Funds equivalent to two months of general running costs to cover unforeseen emergencies.

In addition, the Parish Office shall endeavour to establish and maintain a reserve sufficient to cover any costs incurred in maintaining the building of, and equipment in, the Parish Office.

Each District Church shall endeavour to establish and maintain a reserve on their building funds to cover any cost incurred on regular maintenance, or periodic maintenance identified by the Quinquennial inspection, of their Church Building.

District Churches which have other buildings or lands, e.g. a Church Hall, shall endeavour to establish and maintain a reserve on their appropriate funds to cover any cost incurred on regular maintenance, or periodic maintenance, of their buildings or lands. A similar reserve shall be derived for the Parish Office, which shall be apportioned to each church on the same basis as Parish Share. Initially, the value of each reserve shall be submitted to the Parish Finance Committee for recommendation and reporting to the PCC for their approval.

Subsequently, the identification of any expense which may exceed, or seriously reduce, the associated reserve shall immediately be reported to the Parish Treasurer and Chairman of Parish Finance who, if required, will call a meeting of the Parish Finance Committee to discuss the implications of such reduction in reserves and to recommend any forward action required, while keeping the PCC Chair and Vice Chair fully informed.

The status of the various reserves shall be reported at least annually to the Parish Finance Committee for onward reporting to the PCC and the Parish Treasurer for inclusion in the Annual Report as required by the Charities Act.

Statement of Trustee's Responsibilities

The trustee is responsible for preparing the trustee's report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations.

The law applicable to charities requires the trustee to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the member is required to:

The member is 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 applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provisions of the constitution. The member is 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.

Independent Examiner's Report to the trustee of Halas P C C

I report to the charity trustee on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020 which are set out on pages 9 to 18.

Respective responsibilities of trustee and examiner

As the charity’s trustee of Halas P C C you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).

I report in respect of my examination of the Halas P C C's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner’s statement

Since Halas P C C's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of , which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of Halas P C C as required by section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2020

1 Accounting policies

Statement of compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

Basis of preparation

Halas P C C meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.

Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement

The charity opted to early adopt Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016 and have therefore not included a cash flow statement in these financial statements.

Income and endowments

Donations and legacies

Donations and legacies are recognised on a receivable basis when receipt is probable and the amount can be reliably measured.

Grants receivable

Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released.

Gift aid

Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Financial Activities at the same time as the gift to which they relate.

Expenditure

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.

Page 12

Halas P C C

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2020

Charitable activities

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Tangible fixed assets

Consecrated and benefice property is excluded from the accounts by provisions of the Charities Act 2011. No value is placed on movable church furnishings held by the churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and which requires a faculty for disposal since the PCC considers this to be inalienable property. All expenditure incurred during the year on consecrated or benefice buildings and movable church furnishings, whether maintenance or improvements, is written off as expenditure in the SOFA and separately disclosed.

Fixed asset investments

Fixed asset investments, other than programme related investments, are included at market value at the balance sheet date. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sales proceeds and their market value at the start of the year, or their subsequent cost, and are charged or credited to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period of disposal.

Unrealised gains and losses represent the movement in market values during the year and are credited or charged to the Statement of Financial Activities based on the market value at the year end.

Fund structure

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustee's discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.

Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.

2 Trustee remuneration and expenses

During the year the charity made the following transactions with trustee:

Clergy expenses of £4,405 (2019 - £7,793) were paid in the year.

No trustee, nor any persons connected with them, have received any remuneration from the charity during the year.

No trustees have received any other benefits from the charity during the year.

The PCC is a registered charity, No. 1132731. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 together with applicable accounting standards and the Charities SORP 2005.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for the valuation of investment assets, which are shown at market value.

Funds

General funds represent the funds of the PCC that are not subject to any restrictions regarding their use and are available for application on the general purposes of the PCC. Funds designated for a particular purpose by the PCC are also unrestricted.

Incoming Resources

Voluntary income and capital receipts Collections are recognized when received by or on behalf of the PCC.

Planned giving receivable is recognized only when received.

Income tax recoverable on covenants or gift aid donations is recognized when the income is recognized.

Grants and legacies to the PCC are accounted for as soon as the PCC is notified of its legal entitlement and the amount due. Funds raised by fairs etc. are accounted for gross.

Other ordinary income

Rental income from the letting of church premises is recognized when the rental is due.

Resources used

Grants

Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over, or when awarded, if that award creates a binding obligation on the PCC. Activities directly relating to the work of the church

The diocesan quota is accounted for when payable, Any quota unpaid at 31 December,that the PCC/DDC intends to pay or expects to be able to pay, is provided for in these accounts as an operational (though not a legal) liability and is included in creditors on the Balance Sheet.

Fixed Assets

Consecrated and beneficed property is excluded from the accounts by s96(2)(a) of the Charities Act 1993.

No value is placed on movable church furnishings held by the churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and which requires a faculty for disposal since the PCC considers this to be inalienable property, All expenditure incurred during the year on consecrated or benefice buildings and movable church furnishings, whether maintenance or improvements, is written off as expenditure in the SOFA and separately disclosed.

Other fixture, fittings and office equipment

Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight line basis over 4 years. Individual items of equipment with a purchase price of £1000 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.

Investments

Investments are valued at market value at 31 December.

Current assets

Income from investments

Dividends and interest are accounted for when receivable.

Gains and losses on investments

Realised gains or losses are recognized when investments are sold. Unrealised gains and losses are accounted for on revaluation of investments at 31 December.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

RESERVES POLICY

It is the Policy of the PCC that the Parish Office and each District Church shall endeavour to establish and maintain a reserve on their General Funds equivalent to two months of general running costs to cover unforeseen emergencies.

In addition, the Parish Office shall endeavour to establish and maintain a reserve sufficient to cover any costs incurred in maintaining the building of, and equipment in, the Parish Office.

Each District Church shall endeavour to establish and maintain a reserve on their building funds to cover any cost incurred on regular maintenance, or periodic maintenance identified by the Quinquennial inspection, of their Church Building.

District Churches which have other building(s) or lands,e.g. a Church Hall, shall endeavour to establish and maintain a reserve on their appropriate funds to cover any cost incurred on regular maintenance, or periodic maintenance, of their Building(s) or Lands. A similar reserve shall be derived for the Parish Office, which shall be apportioned to each church on the same basis as Parish Share.

Initially, the value of each reserve shall be submitted to the Parish Finance Committee for recommendation and reporting to the PCC for their approval.

Subsequently, the identification of any expense which may exceed, or seriously reduce, the associated reserve shall immediately be reported to the Parish Treasurer and Chairman of Parish Finance who, if required, will call a meeting of the Parish Finance Committee to discuss the implications of such reduction in reserves and to recommend any forward action required, while keeping the PCC Chair and Vice Chair fully informed.

The status of the various reserves shall be reported at least annually to the Parish Finance Committee for onward reporting to the PCC and the Parish Treasurer for inclusion in the Annual Report as required by the Charities Act.

5 INTERNAL PARISH/ DCC ACCOUNTS

Parish Expenditure is part funded by contributions from each DCC. Charges are made by the Parish in order to achieve a zero net movement in Parish funds (i.e. income = expenditure). These charges are either direct charges (for goods and services supplied to the DCC) or based upon Parish Share ratios (where goods and services are a shared benefit). The following tables show the status of the accounts between each DCC and the Parish. A negative figure indicates the amount owing to the Parish.

Unrestricted Funds:

Money to be used at the discretion of the PCC/DCC in meeting their everyday expenses in furthering the mission and ministry of the Church.

Designated Funds:

Unrestricted funds that have been designated by the PCC/DCC for a particular purpose. They may be redesignated or un-designated as the PCC/DCC so decides.

Restricted Funds:

Funds given for a particular purpose and can only be used for that purpose.

Another form of restricted fund in which only the income from the capital can be spent or benefit gained from an asset as stipulated, and the capital or asset must be retained.

7 ETHICAL INVESTMENT POLICY

An Investment Policy has been prepared, covering the parish policy on reserves and on funds in deficit. The PCC has a policy that funds are invested in CBF Church of England Funds.

In 2020 two DCC's were allowed to reduce the percentage in the calculation to 5%

From 2021 the calculation will change to 10% of the sum of income codes 0001 to 0010, and 0021 for the financial year

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Summary

The Financial Indicator and Traffic Lights report shows what has happened in terms of running costs and building maintenance for the year, the reserves held for both costs and the likely number of years each reserve will last for the current deficit.

The Summary of Spendable Funds report shows where useable funds are held by each church and have they have changed over the year.

This has been a tough year due to the pandemic, where income has fallen across the board. Restrictions on expenditure have meant that the expected deficits are reasonable. This has been achieved by one DCC being unable to pay Parish Share in full and two DDCs restricting Outward Giving to 5% rather than 10%.
