SECTION D ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Summary of the main achievements

The Parish church of St Peter and St Paul continues to flourish, being financially stable and continuing to be an integral part of the village, providing support and fellowship across all ages. The Church emerged successfully from the pandemic returning to full provision of 'in person services' from July 2021. Regular mid-week home groups, prayer meetings and community activities also re-opened fully at the same time.

In July 2021 MPC started a new church called Grace Church Duston in the West of Northampton. This has begun well with services now being attended by between 60-90 each week.

In addition to a vicar, MPC has a children and families worker, a Youthworker, administrator, curate and three licensed readers.

Moulton Tots expanded to a second location in September 2021 and is now seeing many families attend each week. A wellbeing café has been set up and is well attended. The vacancy for a vicar has been successfully filled and the Institution and Induction Service was held on 6 February 2022.

SECTION E FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves Policy

The charity has historically had a £30,000 reserve fund to cover emergency shortfall in salaries and expenditure, this being around two months of costs on average. During the pandemic income has fallen due to lockdown restrictions on Services and Church groups, and it has therefore been necessary to use some of the reserves. Measures are in place to restore the reserves to a level similar to their prepandemic levels.

Financial Statements of the Parochial Church Council

St Peter and St Paul, Moulton for the year ended 31 December 2021

Charity law now requires that the church provides all the detail about its financial affairs that have appeared on display outside the church for the past fortnight. Regular income of the church continued to exceed £250,000 during 2021, therefore the accounts are prepared on an accruals basis. Further copies of the reports that have been on display are available for those who require them and are on display this evening. The aim of this handout is to provide a simplification of the current financial position in a format that is more familiar to people. There are also a few questions and answers to some frequently asked questions.

Financial Highlights

Q1 - Could you briefly explain the 2021 financial results?

A - The total income for the church in 2021 was £258,104 (including MAST and Grace Church income), with total expenditure of £257,539 (including MAST and Grace Church expenditure).

Q2 – How much did Income exceed Expenditure by in 2021?

A - The total surplus of £565 consisted of non-cash depreciation charge of £17,899. With a cash surplus of £18,464 on underlying Church activities. The cash surplus was mainly due to a reduction in Parish Share contribution of £21,300 that was agreed by the Diocese, to enable reserve funds to be rebuilt by this sum after they were depleted by the impact of Covid in 2020.

DEPRECIATION: T4C Assets, the Church Organ, Sound system, computer, Church Hall Stairlift and new boiler for the Church Centre are being depreciated by 20% per year for 5 years, which has resulted in the charge of £17,899 in 2021.

INCOME: Overall income (excluding MAST and Grace Church income) was up by £4,663 in 2021 vs 2020, due to more Church groups opening up post Covid lockdowns, but income remained below pre-pandemic levels.

EXPENDITURE: £33,253 lower in 2021 than 2020 (excluding MAST and PGST expenditure). This was mainly due to lower Parish share costs, as we received relief of £21,300 on Parish Share costs to rebuild reserves and there was c£14k of other lower Parish share costs, including the impact of Andy Byfield leaving during 2021.

Q3 - Does MAST/PGST make a big difference to the financial picture?

A - Yes and No. MAST and PGST provides significant funding to enable the church to employ additional workers and pays many of the costs associated with that. However, it only pays the costs incurred so the net impact on the financial position of the church itself is minimal.

Q4 - What are the main areas of expenditure?

A – The main ongoing cost for the church remains the Parish Share that we pay to the Diocese and Salaries. At £64,344 (excluding Church Plant and MAST staff costs) this accounts for 42% of the church's unrestricted expenditure. After that are salaries for church staff and the general running of the church/church centre.

Q5 - How much does the church give to other groups, outside of the immediate life of the church?

A - Around 10% of regular giving went to other groups, in line with the policy of the PCC, and this again included 10% of the money recovered from HMRC on Gift Aided donations.

Q6 - How much money does the church have available in the bank?

A - The church has c.£102,705 in different bank accounts, which sounds extremely healthy. However, a significant amount of this money is restricted in how it can be used, for example for Restoration works to the church building and funds put aside to contribute towards our commitment to Grace Church Duston.

Q7 - How are things looking for 2022 and further ahead?

A –There is a need to increase regular giving and income for the PCC, to provide ongoing support to Grace Church Duston, and to continue to rebalance income and expenditure in 2022 and beyond. Particularly with current inflationary pressures being faced by the Economy at large, such as higher Energy prices and increases in NI contributions.

Both sections of the Pension Builder Scheme are classed as defined benefit schemes.

Pension Builder Classic provides a pension, accumulated from contributions paid and converted into a deferred annuity during employment based on terms set and reviewed by the Church of England Pensions Board from time to time. Discretionary increases may also be added, depending on investment returns and other factors.

Pension Builder 2014 is a cash balance scheme that provides a lump sum which members use to provide benefits at retirement. Pension contributions are recorded in an account for each member. Discretionary bonuses may be added before retirement, depending on investment returns and other factors. The account, plus any bonuses declared is payable, unreduced, from age 65.

There is no sub-division of assets between employers in each section of the Pension Builder Scheme.

The scheme is considered to be a multi-employer scheme as described in Section 28 of FRS 102. This is because it is not possible to attribute the Pension Builder Scheme’s assets and liabilities to specific employers and means that contributions are accounted for as if the Scheme were a defined contribution scheme. The pensions costs charged to the SoFA in the year are the contributions payable (2021: £4,816, 2020: £4,027).

A valuation of the Pension Builder Scheme is carried out once every three years. The most recent valuation was carried out as at 31 December 2019. The next valuation is due as at 31 December 2022.

For the Pension Builder Classic section, the valuation revealed a deficit of £4.8m on the ongoing assumptions used. At the most recent annual review, the Board chose to grant a discretionary bonus of 3% following improvements in the funding position over 2021. There is no requirement for deficit payments at the current time.

For the Pension Builder 2014 section, the valuation revealed a surplus of £5.5m on the ongoing assumptions used. There is no requirement for deficit payments at the current time.

The legal structure of the scheme is such that if another employer fails, St Peter & St Paul, Moulton could become responsible for paying a share of the failed employer’s pension liabilities.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Parochial Church Council, St Peter and St Paul, Moulton

I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2021.

Responsibilities and basis of report

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

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

Independent examiner's statement

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

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

accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

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

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our independent examination work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an independent examiner’s 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 charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for our independent examination work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
