PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ALL SOULS CHURCH, LANGHAM PLACE ANNUAL REPORT 2021 (CONTINUED)
Structure, governance and management
All Souls, Langham Place is an evangelical Anglican Church in the heart of the west end of London. The church is a Grade I listed building, designed by John Nash. It holds about 1,000 people and welcomes some 2,000 to three main Sunday services each Sunday. The church family is very international and has a healthy mix of all ages and nationalities. 1,064 people were recorded on the electoral role at the 2021 APCM. 1,011 people returned annual membership cards in 2021 demonstrating their commitment to pray, serve, give, share Christ and study God’s word. A second congregation worships at the All Souls Clubhouse in Cleveland Street.
All Souls Parochial Church Council (PCC) has responsibility to cooperate with the incumbent in promoting in the parish the whole mission of the Church: pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical.
Senior lay staff attend PCC meetings in an advisory non-voting capacity.
Appointment and induction of PCC members
In accordance with the Church Representation Rules, one third of the elected members of the PCC are elected at the APCM every year for a three year term, in addition to any casual vacancies that need to be filled. The members of the PCC also currently include eighteen Deanery Synod representatives, who were elected for a three year term from 2020 to 2023. Our arrangements ensure that new PCC members undergo an induction to brief them on their legal obligations under charity and church law, and their role as members of the council.
Risk management statement
The PCC acknowledges its responsibility to monitor risks faced by the charity. The All Souls Risk Policy is approved annually by the PCC and outlines the means by which major risks are managed. The rector and principal PCC subcommittees (Finance, Buildings, Safeguarding, World Mission and Security, HR and Remuneration) are designated risk owners and, under the direction of the church officers group, comprising a Church Warden, the PCC Secretary and Director of Operations, the risk register is reviewed termly. Work is continuing to improve the effectiveness of the risk framework, particularly the ability of the charity to relate risks to objectives, score risks consistently and present risks consistently across different risk areas.
Organisational policy
The PCC meets every month, other than May and August, and there are sub-committees covering various different activities. Other sub-committees are formed as and when required. The Director of Operations is appointed to manage the day to day operations of the charity. To facilitate effective operations, the Director of Operations has delegated authority, within the terms of delegation approved by the PCC members, for matters including strategic planning and delivery and operational oversight of the four Parish charities.
The church recognises the following roles as key management staff: The Rector, Senior Ministers, Director of Operations, Buildings, IT and Finance Managers. Pay and remuneration of lay staff is set by the PCC, that of Clergy by the London Diocese.
Charitable status
All Souls Church is a registered charity under registration number 1132882.
Related charities
All Souls Church is closely linked to other charities within the parish, namely All Souls Clubhouse, the St Paul’s Trust, Langham Arts Trust and All Souls Serve The City from 1 January 2021. As the PCC technically has indirect control over these entities, either through the power to appoint or remove the majority of trustees or though common trusteeships, this would indicate a requirement for audited consolidated financial statements to be compiled reflecting the activities of the whole parish. However, given that the activities of the related charities are supplementary to the core activity of the PCC, we consider that if we were to include the financial performance of those entities within these financial statements, we may in substance dilute the understanding of the financial performance and position of the primary organisation that the PCC is responsible for. Accordingly, the financial statements to which this report relates only reflect the results and position of activities and programmes under the direct control of the PCC.
Even if it were considered appropriate to prepare consolidated financial statements, given the resources at the disposal of the PCC, and the disruption to normal life as a result of the Coronavirus, it is not practical for audited financial statements for the respective related charities to be prepared and approved and then incorporated into consolidated audited financial statements in time for presentation at the annual meeting. It remains an aspiration for summary consolidated results to be prepared for the parish as a whole, when resources and circumstances allow.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Our Vision: All For Jesus
The PCC has considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion. This has always been at the very heart of our mission statement and the following review depicts just some of our many activities enabling ordinary people to live out their faith as part of our parish community. In carrying out its responsibilities, the PCC has complied with its duty under section 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016 to have due regard to House of Bishops' guidance on safeguarding children and vulnerable adults.
Review of the year
2021 was a year of change for All Souls Church. It was a year of both “welcomes” and “good-byes”. We were delighted to welcome Charlie Skrine and his family at the end of April when he started as our new Rector. Charlie has hit the ground running, working hard to get to know the Church family, the staff team and to familiarise himself with the broad range of operational and governance processes that enable All Souls to run effectively on a day-to-day basis. The Church family has benefited hugely from Charlie’s preaching and teaching across different series in both the morning and evening services.
It has also been a privilege to welcome Pamela Brown-Peterside as the Director of All Souls Serve the City (ASSTC). Pamela has quickly settled into the role by leading the different ASSTC ministries as well as making a valuable contribution to the Rector’s Senior Team. This appointment was a priority for the ASSTC CIO in its first year. The Aslan and Tamar funds from All Souls Church were transferred to the ASSTC CIO when it began on 1st January 2021.
Pamela was joined on the Rector’s Senior Team by Kah Foon Gillespie and Natasha Rayan. Kah Foon joined to lead our ministry training programme. Kah Foon and her husband, Jonathan, have been connected with All Souls for many years and it is wonderful to have Kah Foon on the team. Natasha is a long standing member of the ministry team, leading our World Mission ministry. Her wisdom and experience have been a valuable addition to the church leadership. Our joy at being able to welcome new members of the team has been accompanied by the departure of other collegaues. 2021 saw us saying socially distanced goodbyes to Rev. Steve Nichols, Rev. Jonny Dyer, Melinda Hendry, Hannah Hawksbee and Monty Erskine. All have made a monumental contribution to the life and ministry of All Souls over many years, for which we are so grateful. We miss them and their families very much but are delighted that the Lord has called them to different and new ministry fields. Louise Gibson also finished her term as Church Warden in 2021, having served for an extra year to help see us through the interregnum. We greatly appreciate Louise's service. Joanna Richards has taken over from Louise, having been elected as her successor at the 2021 APCM.
2021 also saw us saying more significant and sad goodbyes to a number of members of the Church family who went to glory during the past 12 months, a number as a result of Covid-19. It has been a painful reminder for us, like many across the globe, of the severity of this pandemic.
The shadow of the pandemic has continued to shape and influence so much of what we do as a Church throughout the year. The priority has been to reopen the Church and enable the Church family to worship and join in fellowship in a ‘covidsecure’ way. It has been a huge joy to be able to meet together again and to see the number of people attending all of the Sunday services steadily increase. All of our ministry as a Church in 2021 has been underpinned by prayer both individually and corporately. It has been such an encouragement that the daily 8am prayer meetings that started at the beginning of the pandemic have now become a standard part of Church life, a joy that was matched by being able to restart the in-person prayer gathering.
As a Church we owe a huge debt of gratitude to all our staff who have worked tirelessly to ensure that not only can we meet on a Sunday but also restart our midweek ministries (even if some have had to be online). The team have been joined in their effort and creativity by a huge number of the Church family who have continued faithfully to serve, steward and lead. We continually thank God for how He has supported, sustained and strengthened us throughout the past 12 months.
This theme of gratitude also extends to God’s incredible financial provision during 2021. As well as growth in our online donations, we also saw immense generosity in response to our World Mission and Thanksgiving and Gift days, with significant sums contributed.
The PCC continued to meet monthly, with the easing of restrictions enabling a number of the meetings to happen face to face. The new governance framework that was implemented in late 2020 has continued to take hold in order to ensure that good governance remains a top priority. We are grateful for those that have taken a lead in ensuring our safeguarding, finances and buildings are well managed. Alongside their governance responsibilities, the PCC has: Continued to receive regular updates from the many different ministries run by the Church; Engaged with the Church Of England’s Living in Love and Faith process;
Carefully considered the findings and recommendations of a, 'Lessons Learnt Review', by the safeguarding charity, ThirtyOne-Eight, into various forms of abuse and the prevailing culture which allowed the abuse to take place; Provided valuable wisdom and insight into different discussions about the future plans for the Church.
The PCC has also continued to be kept up to date about the plans for the potential development of SPRAS, including detailed discussions with the Diocese of London. These discussions are ongoing.

2022 Plans
The focus for 2022 is the continuing reopening of the Church and other ministries as restrictions continue to lift. The desire is to see more people coming back to services, and to ensure that all ministries and services can be provided in a way that enables people (with different views and concerns) to feel comfortable and included in all areas of Church life. As part of this, there are ongoing discussions around the shape and form of our continued online offering.
Our Partnership Sunday on 27th February 2022 will mark an important milestone in helping the Church family to think through what being a Partner of All Souls means. 2022 will see particular focus given to our missional aim: to grow and teach disciples. This is one of six missions that flow directly from our vision to be “All for Jesus”. The focus for this year will be on what it really means to be a disciple and how we as a whole Church family can help one another to grow and be disciples who are equipped as women and men to teach the word of God and live all of life for Christ.
As a Church we want to continue to invest in our safeguarding process and ensure that our Church is a place where everyone, particularly abuse survivors, are safe and cared for. This includes recruitment of a paid safeguarding officer and administrator; an event focusing on ‘The Gospel and Abuse’; continued recruitment of people to support survivors coming forward; and ongoing signposting in sermons and other teaching settings about safeguarding issues.
The Church will continue with the important work of implementing the governance and management framework, and we are excited to be joined by Nathan van Sittert as our new Director of Operations. Nathan, alongside Natasha Rayan (who has taken on additional responsibilities as Head of People and Culture) and Charlie Skrine will have a key role in ensuring the effective operations and governance of the Church. Alongside Nathan we are also looking forward to welcoming Rev. Will Stileman as Associate Rector, joining us in April 2022.
This coming year will also see the PCC review the use of buildings and wider property portfolio. This is in part a response to Covid and the changes it has brought about. More significantly, it is an exercise to help inform and shape how our estate enables and supports ministry: how our building can best enable us to be ‘All for Jesus’. As part of this, work will continue on the '2024 project' to ensure that the exterior of All Souls Langham Place is suitably refurbished. In addition, the St Paul’s Trust trustees will continue their discussions around redevelopment of St Paul's Robert Adam Street, liaising with Church family and the Diocese.
Christian Service
All Souls depends on its members' involvement in Christian service. Despite the continued disruption caused by coronavirus, serving partners have continued to be involved in many areas of online, hybrid and ‘face-to-face’ church life including small groups, pastoral care, worship, music, youth and children’s work, men’s and women’s ministry, evangelism and training.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) shows unrestricted net income of £170,500 from normal operations (excluding legacies) (2020: net income of £93,312). Unrestricted legacies totalled £324,214 this year (2020: £566,000), with £298,214 received before the year end and £26,000 accrued for in 2021 debtors. Restricted net income was £76,979 for the year (2020: £591,830).
Of the total unrestricted Income of £2,688,188, 81% (2020: £2,954,066, 73%) was sourced from congregational giving and 19% (2020: 27%) came from other sources, including legacies. Rental income from facilities was negatively impacted for another year, due to lockdown restrictions.
Unrestricted expenditure on Church activities totalled £2,194,167 (2020: £2,120,201). The breakdown of this expenditure is as follows: £839,419, 38%(2020: £791,228, 37%) relates to salaries and other costs for the ministry team, £251,197, 12% (2020: £239,483, 11%) is direct property costs for All Souls, SPRAS and SPVS, £63,319, 3% (2020: £59,445, 3%) is direct ministry costs and £271,014, 12% (2020: £230,886, 11%) relates to grants made.

Due to government restrictions, the catering department was unable to function until September 2021. Whilst a loss of £46,868 is recognised in note 5 of the accounts, the chef was on furlough until July, and the other catering staff on furlough until September. £15,587 of the government grants relate to the catering department.
The Good Samaritan initiative, reported within the Rector's Discretionary Fund, received income of £36,844 (2020:£18,904). Distributions of £9,050 had been made by 31 December 2021 (2020: £300).
Flat C, 5 All Souls Place, continued until September 2021 as an investment property to earn commercial rentals. It is now being used as staff accomodation and its use will be reviewed as part of the housing review, taking place in April. In accordance with FRS 102, the property was valued at fair value of £1,050,000 by an independent valuer in March 2022.
The annual Thanksgiving and Gift Day brought in £228,759 from donations and £47,352 in gift aid (2020: £83,853 and £12,476 respectively). The gift day was another fundraising effort towards the 2024 building project. The total raised for this project so far is £936,136, of which £121,201 is for the restoration of the steps part of the project . Income of £688,910 (2020: £658,377) was received in 2021 for the World Mission Fund. The World Mission committee approved grants from the Mission Fund totalling £569,390 (2020: £530,485). These are detailed in Note 15.

Staff
The second half of the year was filled with several farewells to staff who have served All Souls for many years. Steve and Katy Nichols moved to All Saints Lindfield, where Steve has been appointed as the new vicar. Jonny Dyer also left his role as Associate Rector in the Summer, but has remained a familiar face at Sunday services. After 12 years as Director of Operations, Monty Erskine has moved on to be the new CEO of The College of St Barnabas. Having been part of the congregation for more than 20 years and on the staff team for more than 14 years, Melinda Hendry has left us to complete her Masters degree in theology and spiritual formation. Ian Yap also resigned in November, after 2 years in the Buildings team, most of which was under Covid restrictions. We're very grateful to him for all he did to keep our buildings safe and secure during such difficult times. Sadly Covid brought about some other changes that resulted in two staff roles being made redundant; Chris Ferguson, our sermon editor, and Claudiniea Rodrigues - Larkin, our part-time finance assistant who helped with the counting and banking of cash each week. We are so thankful for their service to the church and wish them well in their new chapters.
As well as welcoming our new Rector, Charlie Skrine, we are delighted to have a new curate, Philip Keen on the team. Kah Foon Gillespie has also joined us, from Friends International, to take over the ministry trainees programme from Melinda Hendry. The departure of these valued members of staff naturally had an impact on the workload of remaining members of the teams. We are grateful for the several members of staff who shouldered additional responsibilities during staff shortages and periods of adjustments Iryna Owen - Mills has joined us as Serving and Support Co-ordinator, a crucial role as we try to re-open the church and its various ministries. Verena Olby moved across from the Finance department, to start our new Human Resources department.
Principal risks and strategies for mitigation
There are three principal strategic risks for 2022. The first relates to the successful induction of a number of key team appointments including a new Associate Rector, a new Director of Operations, a new Head of People and Culture and a new paid Safeguarding Officer. This risk is being mitigated through a clear induction process alongside a programme of regular meetings with the Rector and other key team members and members of the wider PCC. The Rector is also working through a new structure and rhythm for team meetings which will help provide clarity for all team members around where different decisions are made.
The second, is the ongoing risk that All Souls will face pressure in the future to remain a biblical gospel church in the event of doctrinal changes that may affect the Church of England. This risk is mitigated by the continued use of influence within Church of England structures where possible to prevent changes that would be difficult to work with, this includes - but is not limited to - the Rector's engagement with General Synod and the Church of England Evangelical Council. A number of discussions will also be had at PCC over the coming year.
The third risk is that All Souls may be affected by a specific safeguarding issue or via association through a wider review on safeguarding both within and outwith the Church of England. In light of the recommendations contained in the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual abuse commissioned by the Church of England, the Lessons Learned Review Report for Emmanuel Church Wimbledon by ThirtyOne:Eight, the John Smyth Independent Case Review commissioned by Scripture Union, the Independent culture review concerning the Titus Trust along with others, a range of actions are being taken. This includes the establishment of a dedicated group to review the lessons identified as part of the Lessons Learned Review Report for Emmanuel Church Wimbledon; work by our Safeguarding and HR committees to review All Souls policies, procedures and culture; and the recruitment of a paid safeguarding officer. During 2022 we expect further recommendations to come to PCC in relation to other actions that we should be considering to ensure that All Souls is a church that protects the vulnerable and is a safe space for victims of all kinds of abuse.
Investment policy
Investments are held on behalf of the parish by the London Diocesan Fund to provide an income return, while complying with the ethical standards set by the PCC. All Souls has also directly invested with Hargreaves Lansdown to provide an income return. Most of these investments are short term; they are held for the ongoing running costs of the church.
Grant-making policy
The PCC approves grants. They are made to charities or as part of unsolicited giving to beneficiaries recommended by the World Mission Committee.
Reserves policy
At 31 December 2021 funds held totalled £5,164,327 (2020: £4,586,454), of which £1,745,012 (2020: £1,668,493) were restricted funds. The PCC members have established a policy whereby unrestricted funds (net of fixed assets and long term liabilities secured on them and net of stock in hand) held by the charity equate to a minimum of 20% (2020: 20%) of unrestricted resources expended (excluding depreciation). At this level the PCC members feel that they would be able to continue the activities of the charity in the event of a significant drop in funding.
At 31 December 2021 the adjusted unrestricted fund balance was calculated as being £1,528,925 in surplus. This is £1,087,349 more than the £441,575 required by the policy.
Auditors
A resolution will be proposed at the Annual Parochial Church Meeting that Griffin Stone Moscrop & Co. be reappointed auditors to the charity for the ensuing year.
PCC members’ responsibilities
The PCC members are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the PCC members to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the church and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the church.
-
In preparing those financial statements, the PCC members are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements
-
prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the activities of the church will continue.

PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ALL SOULS CHURCH, LANGHAM PLACE ANNUAL REPORT 2021 (CONTINUED)
PCC members’ responsibilities (continued)
The PCC members are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the church and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the Church Accounting Regulations 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the church and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
This report was approved by the PCC on 25th April 2022 and signed on its behalf by:

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ALL SOULS CHURCH, LANGHAM PLACE
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of All Souls Church, Langham Place for the year ended 31 December 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the church's affairs as at 31 December 2021, and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
● have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the " Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements " section of our report. We are independent of the church in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinon.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the PCC members’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the church's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the PCC members with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditors' report thereon. The PCC members are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the PCC members' annual report; or
-
the church has not kept adequate accounting records; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
● we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of PCC members
As explained more fully in the "PCC members' responsibilities" statement set out on pages 5 and 6, the PCC members are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the PCC members determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Page 7
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ALL SOULS CHURCH, LANGHAM PLACE (CONTINUED)
In preparing the financial statements, the PCC members are responsible for assessing the church's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the PCC members either intend to liquidate the church or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditors under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The specific procedures for this engagement and the extent to which these are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
-
Performing audit work over the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business and reviewing accounting estimates for bias;
-
Carrying out substantive checking to supporting documentation, on a sample basis, of individual transactions within income and expenditure to give comfort that the statement of financial activities does not contain any irregular items;
-
Verifying that material balances within the balance sheet are supported by third party evidence to confirm existence and valuation at the balance sheet date;
-
Verifying the existence, on a sample basis, of individual employees on the payroll;
-
Enquiry of management and those charged with governance around actual and potential litigation and claims; and
-
● Reviewing minutes of PCC meetings.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK), we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the church’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the PCC members.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of the PCC members’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the church’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors' report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors' report. However, future events or conditions may cause the church to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the PCC members (who are trustees for the purposes of charity legislation), as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the PCC members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the church and the PCC members, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ALL SOULS CHURCH, LANGHAM PLACE NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
1. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 and the Statement of Recommended Practice Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued in October 2019 and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2019.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following Statement of Recommended Practice Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued in October 2019 rather than Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
The Church constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared on the accruals basis and under the historical cost convention except for the valuation of investment assets, which are shown at market value.
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. There are no material uncertanties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt upon the PCC's ability to continue as a going concern.
Accounting estimates and areas of judgement
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The PCC makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related acutual results.
Funds
General unrestricted funds represent the funds of the Parochial Church Council (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 are also unrestricted.
Restricted funds are those subject to specific trusts, which may be declared by the donor or with their authority. The restricted funds of All Souls, Langham Place include restricted income funds which are expendable at the discretion of the PCC in the furtherance of some particular aspects of the activities of the Church, and restricted capital funds, whose income is restricted.
The financial statements include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the PCC is responsible in law. They do not include the accounts of church groups that owe their main affiliation to another body nor those that are informal gatherings of church members.
Income
Donations and legacies
-
Offerings are recognised when received by or on behalf of the PCC
-
Planned giving receivable under Gift Aid is recognised only when received
-
Income tax recoverable on Gift Aid donations is recognised when the income is recognised
-
Grants and legacies to the PCC are accounted for as soon as the PCC is notified of its legal entitlement when the due can be measured and assessed with reasonable accuracy
Income from church activities and other trading activities
-
Income from church letting and fee income is recognised when the rental or fee is due
-
Sales from trading activities, which include the resources centre, are accounted for gross at point of sale
-
Rental income from the letting of residential properties is recognised when the rental is due
-
Other trading income is recognised as it arises
-
All other income is recognised gross, and on a receivable basis
Income from investments
-
Interest entitlements are accounted for as they accrue
-
Dividends are accounted for when due and payable
-
Income from the Miss E L Bridges Trust endowment fund (Note 8b) is restricted. Income from the remaining funds is unrestricted

PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ALL SOULS CHURCH, LANGHAM PLACE NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
Expenditure
Allocation of support and governance costs
Expenditure is charged on the Accruals basis. It is allocated to the activities in the SOFA based on staff time.
Expenditure on raising funds
This relates to costs of the audio and resource centre, canteen and other trading activities.
Grants
Grants and donations are accounted for when paid, or when awarded, if that award creates a binding obligation on the PCC.
Treatment of irrecoverable VAT
As a registered charity the Church is generally not liable to tax on its surplus or capital gains. It is not, however, exempt from value added tax. Irrecoverable value added tax is included in the cost of those items to which it relates.
Operating leases
Rentals under operating leases are charged to the SOFA in the period to which they relate.
Activities directly relating to the work of the Church
The diocesan quota or parish share is accounted for when payable. Any diocesan fees are accounted for when the services are incurred. Any unpaid fees at 31 December are provided for in these financial statements as an operational liability and is shown as a creditor in the balance sheet.
Support costs
Costs incurred or payments made which are an integral part of expenditure on the PCC’s objects.
Governance costs
Expenditure incurred in ensuring that the PCC complies with all legal and regulatory obligations.
Pension contributions
The PCC operates a defined contribution pension scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the PCC in an independently administered fund. Contributions are charged when payable.
Tangible fixed assets
Consecrated land and buildings and moveable church furnishings
Consecrated and beneficed property is excluded from the financial statements by s10(2)(a) of the Charities Act 2011.
Moveable church furnishings held by the churchwardens on special trust for the PCC, and which require a faculty for disposal, are accounted for as inalienable property unless consecrated. They are listed in the church’s inventory, which can be inspected (at any reasonable time). For inalienable property acquired prior to 2000 there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such assets are not valued in the accounts. Items acquired since 1 January 2000 have been capitalised and depreciated on a straight-line basis in the accounts over their currently anticipated useful economic life (initially over 20 years).
All expenditure incurred during the year on consecrated or benefice building, individual items under £5,000 or on repair of movable church furnishings acquired before 1 January 2000 is written off.
Freehold and leasehold property
Freehold properties are valued at purchase price. In the opinion of the PCC members, depreciation of the freehold properties would be immaterial and has not been charged. The members carry out an annual impairment review, and in their opinion no provision is necessary in respect of the value at which freehold properties are included in the financial statements. Leasehold properties are valued at cost and are depreciated on a straight line basis over the life of the lease.
Other fixtures, fittings and office equipment
Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight line basis over 2 to 10 years. Individual items of equipment with a purchase price of £1,000 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.

PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL OF ALL SOULS CHURCH, LANGHAM PLACE NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
Investment properties
Investment properties are included in the balance sheet at their open market value in accordance with FRS 102 and are not depreciated.
Investments
Investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date using the closing quoted market price. The SOFA includes net gains and losses arising on revaluations and disposals throughout the year.
Stocks
Stocks are shown at the lower of cost or net realisable value.
Debtors
Amounts owing to the PCC at 31 December in respect of fees, rents or other income are shown as debtors less provision for any amounts that may prove uncollectable. These are recognised initially at the settlement amount. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid, net of any trade discounts due.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash at bank and in hand and short term deposits comprise cash and short-term highly liquid investments held with the CBF Church of England Deposit Fund or Barclays Bank and other institutions, maturing within three months or less from the opening of the deposit or similar account.
Creditors
Creditors are recognised when the PCC has an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Creditors are recognised at the amount that the PCC anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payment for the goods or services it must provide.
Financial Instruments
The church only has financial assets and liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. All (including debtors and creditors) are initially recognized at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.
