For me, it came on the tail of recovering from a car crash the Sunday before Christmas 2019 when someone decided their vehicle needed to be in exactly the same place as mine. My journey from Christ Church to St Margaret’s that morning was well and truly thwarted! Then in early 2020, came Coronavirus. Firstly we were banned from offering the chalice. The churches closed a short while later and the clergy were expected to celebrate Communion by themselves in the church. Later we were permitted to do Communion or other service in our homes and to share these online with our congregations and communities. Thus began my earnest study of videoing & editing techniques. The results were initially shared with the weekly e-news I began producing at the beginning of lockdown and later were uploaded to YouTube on my Revvy Jay channel. 2020 has certainly been an interesting year! My retirement from ministry was announced and my final service took place on 1[st] November. Fortunately it was the final week before we were due to be in Lockdown2 with the churches closing again for services. I felt it was somewhat apt to be celebrating my final Sunday in the Benefice on All Saints – as I have met so many lovely people here whom I shall miss. I attended the APCM’s for St Margaret’s. My final meeting of the year was Christ Church APCM’s on Weds 28 Oct which took place in the parish centre and simultaneously on zoom. These were the meetings that should have taken place in April/May of 2020 but were postponed because of the situation with coronavirus. I set up a further meeting on 9 November on zoom at which Tim was elected as churchwarden at Christ Church. I am grateful to Tim for standing for this role and offer him my prayers. Tim has completed the year long Diocesan course, Foundations for Faith’ and has been a regular with us mainly, before coronavirus, at our 8am service. I must express my gratitude to our Associate Priest, Philip who has been a tremendous support, as well as to our ‘retired’ clergy David, Alan and Lynne offering their much valued help too. We have been blessed too, with our churchwardens in 2020 Irene and William, who remain in post until 31.1.2021. William, as you know works many Sundays at the Cathedral which makes his giving us his service on his Sundays off so much more an act of dedication. Irene has been an amazing churchwarden, always working in the background and a wonderful help and support. It is Irene who provided, produced and set out our socially distanced church. My thanks go too, to John and our choir and organists, to Jocelyn for her admin support, Janet D for her welcoming support, as well as to the leaders and helpers of our many groups and organisations. As well as to all of you who have kindly shared with us in this ‘almost a decade’ of ministry. There are too many to mention by name – your ministry no less special. Thank you. My retirement, after almost a decade in post, was set for 11 December 2020 and I thank you for the many, many cards, well-wishes, prayers and gifts. I will continue to remember so many of you fondly and offer you my prayers as I hope we can count on yours in this new stage of our lives. To God be the Glory. As we go our separate ways, 5 THE PARISH OF CHRIST CHURCH HEATON ANNUAL REPORT 2020 We give You thanks, for all our days; And as we part, we do so knowing, In our hearts, Your Love is a-glowing. **Amen** . _**Janet**_ **The Rev Janet French Vicar, Christ Church Heaton & St Margaret’s Halliwell 2011-2020** ## **ANNUAL REPORT ON THE PROCEEDINGS OF PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL** The PCC has met, or had Zoom meetings, 13 times during 2020 to discuss the business and running of Christ Church. Unfortunately the Church and Centre have been closed for a lot of 2020, although we did open for services briefly between August and November. The APCM was held at the end of October, instead of April, and for the first time was a joint in person and Zoom meeting. We elected 6 new members to the PCC – Laraine Mason, Peter Hodson, Adam Syddall, Caroline Lade, Raj Ariyaratnam and Norma Gibbons. A new Churchwarden, Tim Palmer, was appointed at a special meeting in November, and William Nightingale stepped down. Our thanks to William for his service to Christ Church. Rev Janet French retired in December and we wish her every success in the future. Due to extremely generous donations from the Women’s Guild, Luncheon Club, Tea Dance funds and members of the congregation we have been able to refurbish 50 of the Parish Centre chairs in a variety of colours and buy some more chairs with arms, now 12. These brighten up the Hall tremendously and we are very grateful to Janet Darwell, Steph Oakley and Jocelyn Walsh for the research/implementation and Peter Walsh for taking apart and replacing the chair pads and backs. There are still 41 chairs which need recovering, in due course, but we have made a good start. The PCC decided not to produce a Christmas card this year due to pandemic restrictions, but hopefully we will be able to send out one at the end of 2021. We held our first Open Air Carol Service in December, idea courtesy of Tim Palmer, which was very successful and there are hopes this will be repeated. ## **Jocelyn Walsh, PCC Secretary (up to October 2020)** I took over as PCC Secretary from Jocelyn Walsh who stood down after the APCM which was held in October 2020, and have prepared the minutes for 6 meetings since then. The PCC has faced some difficult (and at times lengthy!!) meetings during this last year when dealing with both the repercussions of the pandemic and the retirement of The Rev Janet French in December 2020. Balancing the safety of our parishioners in line with the Government guidelines, along with providing the opportunity to worship when permitted, has not been an easy task. Fortunately we have a very strong team who have faced the challenges head on and dealt most admirably with the various risk assessments etc required. Irene Morris, our outgoing Church Warden, is to be applauded for her most valuable input and commitment here and for guiding our new Church Warden, Tim Palmer, when he took on this role. I am looking forward to being part of the Christ Church family as we face the fresh challenges ahead. Not only are we (hopefully) moving out of Covid, we are also now in vacancy following the Rev Janet French’s retirement. I wish her and Larry a long and happy retirement together. We have already had meetings with our Area Dean, The Rev Canon Dr Chris Bracegirdle, and our Archdeacon, The Ven Jean Burgess, as we formulate our own road map towards the appointment of a new incumbent here 6 ## THE PARISH OF CHRIST CHURCH HEATON ANNUAL REPORT 2020 at Christ Church. As this will very possibly co-incide with the implementation of Mission Communities within the Diocese we are certainly facing interesting times ahead. In addition to these matters the PCC has also dealt with its “more normal” commitments and duties in relation to the financial affairs of the church, and the care and maintenance of its structure and its contents. For example, our properties have continued to be managed, the choir vestry roof has been repaired, tree surgeons have been engaged to carry out essential work within our grounds and the Vicarage will be looked after during the interregnum. Our Treasurer, Andrew Minors, has done sterling work in keeping on top of our finances in these precarious times, keeping us fully apprised of our financial situation at all our meetings. He too should be applauded. I would also like to thank Jocelyn for the help she has given me since I took over this role and the entire PCC for their continued support of our Church, and the hard work they undertake in this capacity. Following last year’s APCM there remained several vacancies to be filled: 6 on PCC and 4 on Deanery Synod. William Nightingale is no longer Church Warden but is now on the PCC. Therefore there are 5 PCC vacancies to be filled together with 4 on Deanery Synod. There may be more vacancies arising by the time of the next APCM to be held on 16th May 2021, after the 9.30am service. Please could you consider whether you would like to become a member? **Laraine Mason, PCC Secretary** ## **CHURCHWARDENS REPORT ON THE FABRIC, GOODS AND ORNAMENTS OF THE CHURCH AND CHURCH PROPERTIES** CHURCH BUILDINGS AND CONTENTS Whilst the church and church centre buildings remain in a relatively good state of repair, the programme of suggested repairs, upgrades or enhancements from the 2018 Quinquennial Report have not yet progressed beyond the more urgently required action. VICARAGE The vicarage did not require any major repairs that were the responsibility of the PCC. CHURCH PROPERTIES We have tenants in the two properties. The PCC are currently undertaking some general repair work to one of the properties. The work on the scout hut lease and arrangements continue to make progress, but is not as yet finalised, with the scout association remaining an important and key part of the outreach and mission of the church. ## CHURCH GROUNDS As you are all aware, the land to the rear of the car park continues to be developed. The PCC intend to erect a border fence along the north and east sides of the car park when the development work is completed. CHURCH CENTRE Unfortunately we still have a vacancy for centre manager, therefore we continue to utilize the wardens, PCC members, and volunteers to ensure that the centre continues its purpose within the Church community. We thank all the people who have helped to keep the centre functioning. We would like to thank Jocelyn Walsh for her work in co-ordinating the business of the centre and working with us on the all matters related to the church and centre business. Irene Morris – Church Warden William Nightingale – Church Warden 7 THE PARISH OF CHRIST CHURCH HEATON ANNUAL REPORT 2020 ## **ELECTORAL ROLL** There are 268 names recorded on the Electoral Roll for 2020. **Victoria Tattersall, Electoral Roll Officer** ## **MAGAZINE** Unfortunately due to the pandemic the Christ Church magazine was only produced for January and February in 2020. We hope to resume deliveries at the earliest opportunity but have to follow government guidelines. We generally deliver 170 magazines throughout the Parish each month and encourage Parishioners who pick up a single magazine from Church each month to pay £6 in advance for the year. We would also encourage all Parishioners to take one complimentary magazine to any new neighbour in their area as a way of introducing themselves. Thanks are expressed to our many dedicated distributors, who do an excellent job, the Parishioners for buying the magazine, Katherine Ford, our editor, our advertisers and many others who offer help and support to all aspects of the magazine. Without you all this wouldn't be possible. Philip Burman will be meeting with Kathryn after lockdown to discuss the magazine going forward and to express his appreciation for all she has done. ## **DEANERY SYNOD** Deanery Synod has met twice this year. The first meeting in January was organised by the Diocese to explain the reasoning behind Deanery Reorganisation. Jean Burgess, the Archdeacon of Bolton and Helen Platt attended from the Diocese and didn’t seem to convince anyone of the merits of the plan. The plan is for the existing 20 deaneries of the diocese to regroup and form 7 large deaneries with 3 fulltime Area Deans. The scheme is designed to save money (the diocese is over £2M in debt) and to help cope with the reduction in the number of stipendiary clergy. This is due to lack of funds to train and pay them. The second meeting was held in November via Zoom. The meeting discussed Mission Communities which are to be set up under Deanery Reorganisation. The meetings planned for June and September were cancelled due to the Coronavirus. ## **Hazel Tattersall** ## **CHILD PROTECTION CO-ORDINATOR’S REPORT** This is my last report as Safeguarding Officer; I will step down from the role at the end of January, after being in the role for 5 years. Records of all volunteers are up to date, with people attached to various church groups having a current DBS certificate. According to regulations I understand there is no official expiry date for a DBS certificate, but some organisations do recommend that they are renewed from time to time. The new Safeguarding Officer could maybe check the Diocesan policy on this when they take over the role. The Diocese recommended in 2017 that all PCC members should be DBS checked. Most members had completed this by March. However I understand that some PCC members have now left, and other people have joined. As things resume after Covid restrictions are lifted new members will need to complete a DBS check with the new Safeguarding Officer. **Pam Knight - Safeguarding Officer** 8 THE PARISH OF CHRIST CHURCH HEATON ANNUAL REPORT 2020 ## **CHOIR REPORT** The year 2020 will be remembered for what did not happen within the church! Sadly, the Choir’s last service of Evensong was on Sunday, 15[th] March and we have not sung Evensong since. In October, we learnt that it would be possible to sing again in church, as long as certain criteria were met. John and Holly worked out a way that we could sing and this was presented to the PCC. As a result, we sang at the Service of Remembrance at the end of October, socially distanced and behind visors and at Janet French’s last service. There then followed the lockdown in November. In December, discussion took place with Rev. Philip Burman and the PCC and it was decided that the Choir would present at short Carol Service in the afternoon of Sunday, 20[th] December. Which we did and very much enjoyed and thank the members of the congregation who attended. On the Sundays during Advent, the Choir sang hymns during the 9.30.a.m. service, again socially distanced and behind visors. On Tuesday, 22[nd] December, the Choir, with John at the keyboard, joined parishioners outside the church for carols by candlelight. An event which was greatly enjoyed by everyone present. We thank Tim Palmer for all his support in arranging this. We are once more in lockdown and there are no services or singing in churches. I really hope that in the near future we can resume our services and once more sing in our place in the Chancel. Our thanks go to Irene Morris, who has helped us so much with organising things so we could sing and to Rev. Burman for his encouragement and the services we shared. **John F. Balshaw - Organist and Choirmaster.** ## **CRECHE** The crèche meets during the 9.30am Family Communion Service and is for children from birth to 3 years old. We had 7 children on the register at the start of 2020 and have very much missed seeing them since the lockdown. We look forward to being able to restart the creche when it is safe to do so and will be very glad to welcome back our babies and toddlers who will have grown considerably since we last saw them! ## **Katie Hodgkiss & Katie Dunne** ## **YOUNG CHURCH 4 - 7 YEARS OLD** Sadly the report for the Young Church is very short. Our last meeting was on Sunday, 15[th] March, 2020, following the stories of Lent and we have not been able to meet since that date. I have seen some of the children in the services held when the church reopened at 9.30.a.m. I really hope that during this year, we will be able to resume our Young Church activities. ## **Janet Balshaw** ## **YOUNG CHURCH – CENTRE GROUP** Since the end of last year’s report, we were only able to meet a few times, during which we focused on activities for Mothering Sunday. When the restrictions are lifted and we are allowed to return to church safely, we shall resume our Young Church meetings with renewed enthusiasm and will be keen to extend a warm welcome to all our children as we guide them on their journey of faith. In the meantime, we continue to pray for all our families and for children everywhere. God bless. 9 THE PARISH OF CHRIST CHURCH HEATON ANNUAL REPORT 2020 ## **Julie Steele, Pauline Cull and Joanna Steele** ## **CHRIST CHURCH ABC GROUP (ADULTS BABIES AND CHILDREN)** Christ Church ABC Group runs on Wednesday afternoons during school term time from 1.30pm until 3pm and welcomes parents and carers with children under school age. The ABC team consists of Jane Chapman, Heather Lowe, Lesley Youngman & Janet Balshaw. Each week we encourage parents & carers to chat and make new friends while the children play and participate in craft activities. Everybody joins in the singing to end the session. We provide refreshments for Parents/carers and for the children; a drink and a “healthy” snack which is served by our volunteer coffee bar helpers. There were 47 families on the register for 2019 -2020. The families tell us that they enjoy the intimate, friendly nature of the group. Many families have come back to the group with their subsequent children. We only managed to hold 7 ABC Group sessions in 2020, at the start of the year. We remain hopeful that we will be able to start up again in the autumn and we very much look forward to welcoming back our existing families and reaching out to new **A** dults **B** abies & **C** hildren. We feel privileged to continue to provide a link between the local community and the church and to maintain the tradition of having a group for **A** dults, **B** abies and **C** hildren at Christ Church. **Jane Chapman** ## **MEN OF CHRIST CHURCH (MCC)** Thankfully, the MCC was able to organise one or two events early in the year before Covid-19 closed down all social activity across the UK. The year began, as always, with the annual Renewal of Commitment service in January. The annual dinner took place, once again, at Bob’s Smithy on 19[th] February and was well attended, with twenty-four people participating, including five members of the congregation of St. Margaret’s and our clergy. It was an excellent event, with good food and wise company, thoroughly enjoyed by all. Thanks are due especially to Adam Syddall for his efforts in arranging it. Unfortunately, it has not yet been possible to organise a similar event for 2021 but, perhaps, we may be able to reinstate an autumn date, as in earlier years. The MCC again manned the kitchen for the Pancake Party on Shrove Tuesday. Thanks, in particular are due to Geoffrey Pearson and Aubrey Chapman for performing the chef duties and also to Judith Pearson and Jane Chapman for helping out along with the Rev. Janet French and Larry. The timing of the event had been brought forward, resulting in an afternoon start. The event was sparsely attended but everyone there enjoyed their time. The MCC AGM was unable to be held because of Covid-19 regulations and no committee meetings could be held but the committee continues to comprise Adam Syddall as Honorary Secretary, Neville Beech as Honorary Treasurer with Andrew Minors, Peter Hodson and Geoffrey Pearson as serving members. As always, the MCC committee would appreciate any offers from anyone who would like to contribute to the work of the MCC to help maintain and organise our programme of events. At the same time, I would like to offer my thanks, and those of the committee, to everyone quietly fulfilling the many duties and roles without which CCH would not be able to thrive. ## **David Youngman (MCC Chairman)** ## **MOTHERS UNION** 10 ## THE PARISH OF CHRIST CHURCH HEATON ANNUAL REPORT 2020 The Christ Church Heaton Mothers’ Union branch has continued through testing times in its long history. We are confident the branch will emerge from this latest time of trial with renewed vigour as we look to celebrate 120 years in existence in 2021. 2020 was always going to be challenging. The simultaneous resignation at the end of 2019 of so many of our experienced and dedicated committee left the very existence of the branch in doubt. But, after a meeting with the Bolton Archdeaconry President, Ruth Taylor, it was decided that with the support of Revd. Janet French, we could continue as a branch with just a treasurer in situ. The branch had 37 paid up members in 2020 (2019: 56). There were 1,331 members in the Manchester Diocese. The Mothers’ Union are committed to supporting Baptisms at Christ Church through sidesperson duties, bible readings and the provision of the Baptism books given to each family. Our thanks to Clare King for organising the rota so diligently. The Mothers` Union theme for 2020 was “Building Hope and Confidence”. Our less structured programme of occasional meetings meant our first get together followed the Wednesday MU Corporate Communion in February. The vicar gave a talk based on Menas, an Egyptian saint portrayed in an early Coptic Icon and the enjoyable and informative talk was followed by a ‘bring and share’ lunch. The Bolton Deanery Festival Service was held on February 13th at St Matthew`s, Little Lever and our Knitting Club met on February 28[th] with a good turnout. Little did we know this would be our last physical gathering of 2020. CCH MU has continued to be active despite the onset of the pandemic. Through the “Just Up Your Street” Project we helped Fortalice purchase materials for their new Art Therapy sessions for which they were most grateful. We also gave many knitted items, made during lockdown, to Fortalice and to the neonatal unit at the Royal Bolton Hospital. A booklet of Lockdown Poems and photos was produced by the Manchester office after members were invited to write and submit items. The Lockdown Poetry videos were viewed by over 1,500 people on YouTube. A Carol Service was produced by Mary Sumner House and the Manchester Diocesan MU Thursday Prayers, relayed once a month via Youtube, help unite us all through prayer. Prayer is very much at the heart of everything that we do. My sincere thanks must go to Sue Critchley who agreed to continue as the Deanery Correspondent for our branch. Sue’s enthusiasm, guidance and prayers have been a great support to me and she provides a constant stream of ideas and communications from central ‘HQ’ to all our members. Sue attended the Zoom AGM and Autumn Council for Manchester Diocese on October 17[th] . A new Constitution for the Diocese has been drawn up and members were emailed copies and asked to vote for its approval. To keep everyone informed “MU Live” is now available on the Mothers` Union website. But much more than that, Sue is at the heart of our branch network and quite remarkably keeps track of all our members’ birthdays and anniversaries. For 2021, we can only hope and pray for others to join the MU Committee. It is an exciting opportunity to re-imagine the branch in its 120[th] year. **Ruth Syddall and Sue Critchley** ## **CHRIST CHURCH PLAYERS** The production of Holiday at Home in Feb 2020 was another success for the Players. They received their best review yet from Bolton Amateur Theatre Society and again each night performed to sell out audiences. We were delighted to welcome two new 11 ## THE PARISH OF CHRIST CHURCH HEATON ANNUAL REPORT 2020 players Carol Cleary and Paul Whitney who, making their stage debuts, added welcome new dimensions to our cast and performances. Such success comes only with a lot of hard work and set against that of the cast is that of all the people who give of their time and effort. Not least are Geoffrey Pearson and Martin Miller who again designed and built a wonderful set, Judith Pearson who so expertly directed the play; ‘backstage’ staff Christine, Carol, Sue, David and James who prompted, managed the lighting, sound effects and props; Pam Hodson who as always manages our finances but also works tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure there are refreshments in the interval and carries out all our admin; parishioners who kindly sell programmes, raffle tickets and serve the refreshments; Peter and Julie Steele who masterminded the box office while Peter stood in as front of house at short notice. It becomes increasingly difficult to find people willing to help with these jobs and yet without them, the Players ability to raise a substantial amount of money each year for church funds would not be possible. So - if anyone fancies ‘treading the boards’ or would be prepared to give up a couple of hours at our next performance to give us a hand we would be delighted to see them. Just speak to any cast member. Meanwhile, we are pleased to announce that as a result of our success we have been able to make a donation to church of £2,000. Since February 2020 however, the world and our access to it has been rocked by the Coronavirus pandemic and so 2021 will be a quite different one for the Players. We will not be able to stage a production in February. However, we are planning - if conditions re the virus improve and restrictions are lifted - that we will be able to host 2 Murder Mystery sessions - one afternoon and one evening – at which the audience enjoy afternoon tea/supper, the cast perform the ‘play’ and the audience have to guess ‘Who Did It!’ Exactly when that will be is still a movable feast though initial plans are for May. And then of course there is still the possibility of another play in 2022! ## **Brenda Griffiths – Chair** ## **CHRIST CHURCH WOMEN'S GUILD** I’m going to start by sending you all a virtual hug from the Christ Church Guild. This last year for everyone has been a rather difficult one, as you can imagine we had to cancel all of our planned talks and trips so on paper the Guild hasn’t really got much to report in the form of events, however we did manage to contribute to the amazing chairs in the Church Centre. The Guild would like to thank Jocelyn, Janet Darwell and Jocelyn’s amazing husband Peter for the organising of the recovering, the taking apart and putting back together of the chairs they look amazing and the colours just lift your heart. I would also like to report that the committee members have all done their upmost to keep in touch with our members and non-members to try to raise spirits by a wave, a phone call, a socially distanced chat etc. My thanks as always go to the whole committee without these amazing people who give up their time the guild wouldn’t be able to run and support our church family and it’s at times like these you realise why keeping our groups running is so important. May God bless you all and we look forward to seeing you soon. **Stephanie Oakley** ## **CHRIST CHURCH LUNCHEON CLUB** This year, due to Covid, we have had only two meetings in January and February, with an average attendance of 40 per meeting. Although sadly we have lost some of our members, we did gain others as a result of advertising our Luncheon Club at St 12 ## THE PARISH OF CHRIST CHURCH HEATON ANNUAL REPORT 2020 Margaret's Church. The new chairs in the Centre have proved to be of great benefit to us and in view of this we decided to make a donation of £102 towards their cost. In January, we welcomed Elaine Taylor as our speaker, who gave us a most interesting talk on the history of Rivington Gardens, both past and present. She is a very eloquent and knowledgeable speaker and being of local interest her talk stimulated lots of questions. In complete contrast for our February meeting, we had musical entertainment with a group called Travelling Strings. This was a 'first' for us and most appreciated by our members who joined in with some of the songs. As always, although this has been such a curtailed year, thanks must go to all the volunteers who ensure the success of our Club. The lynchpin of our kitchen is Steph Oakley - always so efficient and cheerful, organising the soup and sweet rotas, aided by Janet Balshaw in charge of the soup. Janet always starts our meetings with a sung grace which is much appreciated. Thanks also to Elsie Aldred, in charge of cheese and bread. Furthermore, thanks must go to all the members of Christ Church who help our Luncheon Club, either by making soup or puddings or working in the kitchen. You are all very valued, as without your help this Luncheon Club would not be able to carry on. I do hope that when we eventually return to 'normality' you will all continue to support us. Pam Hodson has been an integral part of our Club - so efficient in dealing with our finances. We are very fortunate to have such a stalwart treasurer and we thank her for her many years of service to the Club. Likewise Kathleen Dobb, who organises and distributes our raffle each meeting. She also sends out birthday cards to each member, which have been especially appreciated this year. Also, as we have not had our Christmas meeting, where each member receives a Christmas card, we have distributed these cards, along with a 2021 programme, as a way of keeping in touch. I did write a letter to each member which I sent out in the summer, explaining what we thought the future holds for our Luncheon Club. Obviously, things have changed, so at the present time we do not know when we will be able to recommence meetings. In the meantime, I try to keep in touch by phone with as many members as I can. I know they all miss the camaraderie of our Club and are looking forward to the time when we shall be able to meet up again. **Pauline Cull - Luncheon Group Leader** ## **MESSY CHURCH** We only managed one Messy Church session prior to the pandemic which was on February 19[th] 2020 and was based around the theme of ‘The Sower’. This session was well attended with 21 children present. In total we have 41 children on the register. We look forward to being able to restart our sessions when we can do safely, and have lots of exciting ideas around themes and activities. **Katie Hodgkiss – Messy Team** ## **BROWNIES** Brownies only met four times in 2020. We had intended to do some work on the Be Well theme but we only got as far as planting some bulbs. There are not many girls in the Brownie Pack at the moment but they are lovely girls and very keen. If Brownies are to continue at Christ Church we do need some new helpers. Judith Newton finished helping at Brownies last summer and I cannot thank her enough for all the help and support she has given me over the last fifteen years. Thank you. **Hazel Tattersall.** 13 THE PARISH OF CHRIST CHURCH HEATON ANNUAL REPORT 2020 ## **WEDNESDAY CUBS** In 2020 Wednesday Cubs had 20 members, 15 boys and 5 girls coming from as far as Adlington. Although the year was brief we still managed to have quite the start, the Cubs enjoyed a variety of activities including pancake making to celebrate Pancake Day, as you can imagine this went down well! We also celebrated Chinese New Year, where we tried various foods, played games and even had items of clothing and decorations brought in by one of our parents, who taught us about traditions in China on New Year. In our team building night, we had the Cubs create their own pack night, where they chose activities and stuck to a budget to run the night. We had planned to let each group run their night, but unfortunately we had to close before this happened. At the beginning of March we entered two teams in the district swimming gala and all of the Cubs did amazingly and showed great sportsmanship. We also celebrated world book day where we spoke of our favourite stories, acted out parts from books and tried to guess which character other people were playing. This would have been the start of our reading badge, but unfortunately we never got round to finishing it. Hopefully we will pick up where we left off and get back to doing what we loved very soon! ## **Marie Armour** 14 **PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF CHRIST CHURCH HEATO** Registered Charity No 1132861 Financial Statements for the period 1st January 2020 to 31st December 2 **STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL ACTIV** |**Note**

Planned giving receivable under Gift Aid is recognised only when received. Income tax recoverable on gift aided donations is recognised when the donation is recognised. Grants and legacies to the PCC are accounted for as soon as the PCC is notified of its legal 9 entitlement and the amount due. Income from investments Dividends and interest are accounted for when receivable. Tax recoverable on such income is recognised in the same accounting year. Rental income from the letting of church premises is recognised when the rental is due. Gains and losses on investments Realised gains or losses are recognised when investments are sold. Unrealised gains or losses are accounted for on revaluation of investments at 31 December. Resources used ## Grants Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over, or when awarded, if that award creates a binding obligation of the PCC. Activities directly relating to the work of the Church The parish share or diocesan quota is accounted for when paid. Any share unpaid is not accrued at the year end (unless a balance payment has been committed by the PCC) as no legal liability exis ## Fixed assets Consecrated land and buildings and moveable church furnishings Consecrated and beneficed property is excluded from the accounts by s.96(2)(a) of the Charities Act 1993 No value is placed on moveable church furnishings held by the churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and which require 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 moveable church furnishings, whether maintenance or improvement, is written off as expenditure on purchase. Other fixtures, 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 £4,000 or less are written off when the asset is acquired. ## Investments Investments are valued at market value at 31 December. ## Current assets Amounts owing to the PCC at 31 December in respect of fees, rents or other income are shown as debtors less provision. Short-term deposits include cash held on deposit either with the CBF Church of England Funds or at the bank. 10 ## CHRIST CHURCH, HEATON NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDING 31ST DECEMBER 2018 ## Fixed Assets Investment Property 39 Welbeck Rd 112 Markland Hill Total Heaton Heaton £ £ £ Value B/Fwd 169950 134950 304900 Revaluation 0 0 0 Value C/Fwd 169950 134950 304900 ## Basis of Valuation The property values are in accordance with Bairstow Eves marketing reports dated 28 February 2007 ## Movable Church Furnishings These are vested in the Church wardens on behalf of the PCC.
