## **Vicar’s Comments** 

2020 what a year! Little did we realise last year as to how the world and Church life would have changed so dramatically in such a short space of time. In hearing of the “Wuhan Flu” in January we were astonished by the speed in which the country came to a Lockdown from March to the end of June, and all the challenges that have happened since. Within a week of the first lockdown starting we had learnt how to stream services on YouTube and not only had the Sunday Worship up and running again, we also started streaming our Daily Prayer service. This has grown considerably over the time and still connects with a number of people. 

Coronavirus was and continues to be a major challenge for all of us. These are some of the challenges over the past year. All Churches were closed to public worship over the two lockdowns and limited by social distancing when open. All in-person Children’s and Youth work ceased. Baptisms and weddings were postponed. All concerts, meetings and any gatherings in person were cancelled. There was no singing in church and choirs have been limited in what they can do. Funerals were still taking place but with only immediate family attending. The leadership team and the PCC members continued to have regular meetings and agreed to do business via correspondence (email in essence), as practical things had to be decided upon, and things needed to keep running as smoothly as possible. Several risk assessments have been carried out as things changed. What a year! 

I would like to say that I am immensely grateful for all of you. So many people have worked hard over the last year to keep us all connected: from those who take part in the online worship; to those who are behind the scenes, who have worked especially hard this year in pastoral care with an amazing team of volunteers to ensure that all those on our electoral roll were contacted during the initial lockdown and indeed in the weeks that followed; to our wonderful wardens who have helped me do risk assessments, making the church Covid safe - there is a lot involved. We had a number of quizzes and different ways in which we could try and keep connected with each other. I never thought we would have to start to run a food bank from the Vicarage garage either! But we have done all these things. 

I am especially grateful that so many people wanted to get involved and help and I give thanks for you all. 

Give thanks 

_Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is Gods will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:16 -18_ 

Give thanks with a grateful heart, 

Give thanks to the holy one…. 



## **Electoral Roll Report** 

Since last year there has been 1 addition to the Electoral Roll. 5 names have been removed – 2 people have died, and the other 3 have moved away. The total has therefore decreased from 180 to 176. 


## **Annual Report** 

## **Ministry** 

One of the most asked questions by our young people is when Crumpet Church is coming back!  Of course we know that was a huge success… and then Covid hit! But we will be back, hopefully in the autumn. We had built up our youth work with a 


core group of around 20 young people, and were looking at a strategy to take that work to the next level, again we are looking to the autumn to restart our work.  Not all our Children’s and Youth work has stopped, we have regular on-line and home activities to try and keep a connection, but the lack of space and restrictions has meant all our face to face work had to cease. Most of the occasional offices have ceased, apart from funerals which during the lockdown were very challenging for some, and very intimate for others. Of course, the majority of the face to face pastoral care had to cease, but we have kept in contact with people through telephone calls. 

Abbie continued with us as Curate and moved post at Easter 2021 having completed her training. She has offered much in her ministry among us. We have also been blessed with Steve Palmer’s ministry, and he has planned and led our All Age services as well as developing and encouraging a large group of young lay leaders. Both Steve and Abbie have been an integral part of ensuring that we are able to stream our services, and have been an invaluable support and resource in recording and editing services during the lockdown. I am grateful for all the support, and for what I have been able to learn through them. 

## **Mission & Outreach** 

One huge part of our outreach had to stop. Our annual events were all cancelled, but we did manage to hold our Burn’s Night supper which was a huge success. 




We had to sadly cancel our annual visit by Centre Point and we suspended lunch club as well as a plethora of other events during the year. Despite its being a difficult year financially, we continue to offer financial support to a number of organisations as part of our outreach, as well as continuing our links and support of Meeting Point in Armley. One thing I never expected was the need for a food bank for Pannal & Beckwithshaw. Virtually from the start of lockdown we have had a food bank operating, firstly at school and then from the Vicarage garage. We have supported a number of families sending out a total of nearly 400 food parcels on a weekly basis. 

## **Worship & Discipleship** 

One thing we pride ourselves on is the quality of our worship and of course we had to do this in a new way. We had to learn very quickly how to stream services, initially from the Vicarage and from Abbie’s home, and then streaming services from church when we weren’t locked down. We have become fairly proficient in this and we consider that this could probably be a continuing aspect of worship in the years to come. Music is a huge part of our tradition and worship, we are very blessed in this area. Since lockdown hit us, Kevin Payne has been very creative in how he and the choir could support worship with music. Small groups recorded music and we 

managed throughout the lockdown periods to have recorded music we could use at all our streamed services. 

We celebrated all the major festivals with a very different feel; at 

Palm Sunday & Easter which were recorded and at Christmas which was during a second lockdown. We have had a variety of services, from a celebration to the countryside, a crib service, Carol service, 


Palm Sunday and many more. We recorded a Crib service and Carol Service as at that point numbers in church were very restricted and we wanted to be able to reach as many people as possible. 


In terms of Lay leadership, we welcomed Adrian Cook as he was accepted to start his training as a Licensed Lay Minister (Reader) and he has been planning and leading services throughout the year. These has been well received and have brought a new dimension to an array of services. We ran a number of nurture courses and discipleship courses as well as continuing the bible study group during the year. We continue to look at how we can be church together. 



## **Continuing the journey together** 

None of what we do is possible without the many resources required. In the latter part of 2019, we started looking at utilising the Parish Giving Scheme (PGS) as well as looking strategically at our income. The PGS uptake has been slow as we have been usable to launch it in the way in which we hoped. Looking at our finances, we managed to end up with over a £14k deficit, which could have been much worse. A big thank you to the finance team who have guided us through this difficult time. During the lockdown we have upgraded our sound system, installed cameras and installed streaming equipment as a commitment to sustaining an online presence. We continue to take seriously our commitment to our environment policy and the targets we have set. We look forward to moving forward together, even if the future is difficult to predict. We are hoping that most thing will open up in the autumn.

## **Summary** 

- With church services and activities being substantially restricted due to the coronavirus pandemic, we ended the year with a deficit of £14215 

- Income was £9500 down on the previous year, and expenditure £3400 higher, as explained below 

- Our Parish Share of £104466 was paid in full 

- Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the church has a ‘Bounce Back Loan’ of £10000 outstanding with NatWest Bank. This is over a period of 6 years at a fixed interest rate of 2.5%. No capital payment or interest is due until August 2021. 

## **Income** 

- Voluntary income (excluding grants) was down by £9849 

- Voluntary income (grants) – A total of £9977 was received by way of grants. Harrogate Borough Council commuted funds scheme gave £607 for the floodlighting and £3370 for repairs to the churchyard wall. The new audiovisual system, to allow for online streaming of services, benefited from grants from the Bramall Foundation of £5000 and from the Diocesan Covid Fund of £1000 

- Fundraising - despite lockdown etc, we still managed to raise an amazing £10700. The bike ride raised £5600, plus gift aid of £625. The online Christmas Hampers raised a record £935, the Burns Night meal £670, and the Quiz Night £440. The 100 Club raised £243. In addition, £2020 was raised from the Scarecrow Festival for the Harrogate Foodbank 

- Our investments increased by 10% in 2020, giving us an unrealised income of £7400. No investments were sold in 2020 

## **Expenditure** 

- Major Repairs and Replacements £17700, which were Repairs to the Churchyard Wall and Roof £6300, and the new audio visual system £11400. Grants totalling £9977 were received towards these projects (see above) 

## **Current Situation for 2021** 

The Coronavirus crisis is still having an impact on our finances in 2021. This makes it even more important to ask our supporters to please sign up with a direct debit to our Planned Giving Scheme (PGS), in order to maximise our level of reliable income so that we can plan ahead. This can be done easily through the PGS website www.parishgiving.org.uk, and we would also encourage people currently giving by standing order to transfer to the PGS scheme. 



## **Church Wardens Report** 

This report provides an opportunity not simply for reflection but to express our thanks for what was achieved during a year which was different in many ways. 

We should like to state our gratitude to all those, clergy and congregation, who have kept the church running by their willingness to change established practices, adopt new technologies and take on extra work and challenges. We have worshipped on line, had post-service coffee on line, enjoyed quizzes, undertaken study courses, admired the beautiful flower arrangements and heard our wonderful musicians. When we have been able to worship in church, appropriate risk assessment had been undertaken and our group of ‘Service Managers’ has contributed much to ensuring safe practices in church. Above all, we thank our clergy and worship leaders for their ministry in challenging times. 

Hopefully, we can now look forward to continuing in-person worship and to addressing the challenges and opportunities which that presents, not least seeing more of the young people who are such an important part of our community. 

## **Consolidated Fabric Report** 

## **January 2020** 

at their own cost the bulbs purchased last year with a slightly different bulb. 

2, All Nave bulbs have been replaced 

- 3, Around 6 of the replacement Nave chandelier bulbs remain in stock. 

- 4, The new heating element in the kitchen water boiler is working efficiently. 

- 5, Three quotes were eventually obtained to enable a grant application to be made to HBC in relation to three areas of boundary wall in need of urgent repair: 

a] £ 5,700 

b] £12,129 

c]  £35,830.50 

6, The application was successful, and grant obtained based on quotation from Whites Roofing 

7, A List B permission has been signed off by the Archdeacon for Contractor a]. The delay in implementation of the work had been caused by the HBC’s requirement for three quotes for the grant submission. 

## **May 2020** 

8, The large floodlight in the center of the Chancel was disconnected to enable a less dazzled view of the Chancel and Nave from the Altar. At the same time a number of spotlight bulbs in the Chancel were replaced. 

9, The tower floodlights have been replaced with LED lamps, these have given a softer light which compliments the appearance of the Tower in addition to reducing our carbon footprint and running costs. 

10, The DNA Water purchased on change of insurers last year has been applied to all 



interior metal valuables. A warning sign to potential thieves has been put up in the Lobby. 

- 11,  a, the Quinquennial roof repairs were completed 

The rebuilding work to the southwest Church yard wall was also completed. 

- b, some of the pointing around the old West entrance has been repaired, 

- c, first section of Clarke Beck boundary wall was completed, 

- d, second section of Clarke Beck wall disassembled and made ready for rebuilding 

## **June 2020** 

12,  All of the required external repairs under the Quinquennial report have been completed along with the carpark wall and extra work to the  beck side of the South West boundary wall where there had been further movement of the lower wall levels caused by ground settlement around the roots of previously felled trees. 

There are further works required along the beck-side that we might have to consider next year plus some new vehicle damage to the car park wall immediately adjacent to the left of the churchyard gate. 

13, The external DNA water purchased on change of insurer was applied by the contractor to the lead flashing on all roof areas.  Notice to be fixed as a deterrent to would be thieves. 14, Regrettably the clock developed a fault and, to prevent further damage occurring, was stopped for couple of weeks . 

15, An email was received from Cumbria Clocks which included the following information: “The winding units do not have a clutch incorporated in them and the running back of the winding drum we are sure is caused by a problem in the motor/gearbox assembly (this was the motor slipping problem I identified whist carrying out a time correction a couple of weeks ago). 

The winding unit is between 40 - 50 years old and spares for the gearboxes are no longer available. We could bring it in and see if it can be repaired but you would be looking at a cost of around £600.00 and with only a 12 month guarantee. 

A new automatic winding unit would be £2,120.00 with a 10 year guarantee.” 

## **July 2020** 

16, Following the above issue with the clock and the submission of a cheaper equivalent maintenance contract we changed our Clockmaker to Time Assured Ltd of Nottingham, first service carried out a couple of weeks later. 

17, A licensed treatment firm was engaged to spray the weed growth on the beck-side boundary wall, this took place once any secondary nesting birds had fledged. 

18, During the previous few months continuing problems were being experienced with our sound system.  A full survey of our system and our needs with regard to maintaining and improving our service provision was carried out. Given the effects of the pandemic on worship and our congregation, a decision was taken to invite proposals from two A/V 



specialists. The result of these discussions and proposals received was to purchase and install a complete A/V system with broadcasting ability. The application, and associated document completion, was more than onerous, however a Faculty was granted and the purchase and installation work took place. This resulted in the high quality of broadcast Services and Worship that we are now able to provide and take part in, to the benefit of our congregation and, more generally, to the wider worshipping community. 

19, Following recommendations and costings from the two firms the contract to supply and install was placed with Cathedral Sounds of Ripon
