ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2024
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Background
Horley Parochial Church Council (PCC) has the responsibility of co-operating with the clergy in promoting the whole mission of the Church of Christ within the ecclesiastical parish of Horley. The PCC is also responsible for the maintenance of our buildings, which include the historic church of St Bartholomew’s, St Wilfrid’s Church, St Francis Church (‘the Churches’) and the vicarages for St Wilfrid’s and St Francis. The Team Rectory is classed as Parsonage Housing by the Diocese of Southwark.
Each of the churches has its own District Church Council (DCC) which has delegated authority from the PCC for the running of their respective church. Income and expenditure which relates to the individual churches is controlled by the DCCs. Central parish expenditure is financed by a contribution from each church.
Members of the PCC are elected by the individual churches at the annual church meetings and ratified at the Annual Parochial Church Meeting (APCM).

ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2024
Membership
Members of the PCC, who are also Trustees for the purpose of charity law, are either elected by each of the three churches at their respective annual meetings and confirmed by the Annual Parochial Church Meeting in accordance with the Church Representation Rules, or serve as ex officio members. The PCC can also exercise its right to invite coopted members as it deems fit.
The training of new PCC members is on-going and information is cascaded to them from the Diocese, the Deanery, the Clergy, the Churchwardens and Treasurer as appropriate.
Committees
The PCC operates through three committees that report to the main meeting from time to time.
Standing Committee
This is the only committee required by law. It exists to transact the business of the PCC between meetings and may form the agenda for meetings of the PCC.
Treasury Committee
This is comprised of the Team Rector, the PCC Treasurer and the Treasurer of each of the Churches. It exists to oversee the finances of the parish as a whole and meets as necessary. Between meetings, there is email communication between the members of this committee.
Churchyard Committee
This comprises several members co-opted by the PCC, together with two Horley Town Councillors. It oversees the maintenance of the churchyard on Church Road. Reports are made to the PCC by its co-opted members. The Town Councillors report to the Local Authority which provides the PCC with a grant for the maintenance of the Churchyards.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
As a Parish within the Church of England's Diocese of Southwark, the Churches exist for the benefit of its wider community as well as for those who form part of its week-by-week worshipping community.
One of our key objectives is to serve Horley with the love of Christ. Throughout the week we seek to serve the town in which we are based by using the gifts and talents of the clergy, staff and lay members of the churches. Through a wide variety of activities and services - both on Sundays and throughout the week - the church seeks to share the life and transforming love of God in word and in action, bringing to this task the numerous gifts and talents of a very significant number of lay people as well as the clergy and staff team.
The PCC ensures that decisions are in line with Church of England requirements which in turn take account of the guidance on public benefit published by the Charities Commission.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
The character and style of the services that are held on Sundays and during the week reflect the diverse needs and worship styles of the congregations in the churches. Services include traditional BCP, Taize, Common Worship, Evensong and informal services.
At the APCM on 28 April 2025 there were 237 names on the roll (2024: 247).

ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2024 (continued)
PCC activities
The PCC has met 4 times since the 2024 APCM and meetings took place at St Bartholomew’s Church with Zoom links for those unable to attend in person.
Among other matters, the following areas were the focus of meetings during the past year:
-
St. Bart’s Spire and Roof repair Following completion of the Spire restoration in 2023, attention has now been turned to the main roof, specifically the nails. Consideration is also being given to the replacement of the two oil-fired boilers with a more environmentally-friendly solution.
-
Maintenance work at St. Francis
Various redecoration works were undertaken during the year, including new paving and a boiler. During the year the church received £13,000 legacies to be used on specific building projects at the behest of the legators. These remained unspent at 31 December 2024 but are expected to be defrayed during 2025.
• Maintenance work at St. Wilfrid’s
This year a faculty was being sought for the roof, and new electric heating was installed to replace the gas boiler.
- Youth group
A parish youth group for young people in school years 7 and upwards was run by Tim Hill and Kerry Evans during the year. The group meets at St Bart's Church on a Friday evening during term time.
Major activities in the parish
All three churches were fully open during 2024, offering Sunday services and other meetings. In addition, there were some fundraising activities held during 2024 in aid of the St Wilfrid’s Roof fund, including a concert by a local musician. St Francis held a Parish Harvest Supper, with profits donated to Welcare and Renewed Hope Trust, two local charities.
Youth and children’s work
This continues to be a major focus of the parish and includes mums and toddler groups, youth meetings, as well as our various Sunday Schools.
A church school, Trinity Oaks, opened in September 2014 and the PCC now has three Foundation Governors elected by the PCC.

ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2024 (continued)
Evangelism
In the past this has included Alpha, Christianity Explored, Emmaus and House Study Groups which are run on a periodic basis.
Pastoral Care
Pastoral care is part of the work of the clergy, plus the SPA and members of the church pastoral team. Clergy and pastoral teams go into local residential homes to conduct services and bed side visits.
Community
In the past, working with Churches for Horley, the parish contributes to Horley Food Bank. There are Welcare reps in each church and Toy Services are held each Christmas as well as contributing to the Samaritan’s Purse shoebox appeal and to the Romanian Aid Foundation. Toiletries are regularly donated to Women’s Refuge and East Surrey Hospital.
The halls at both St Francis and St Wilfrid’s are rented to community groups such as Playgroups, Guides and exercise classes.
Harvest parcels are distributed from St Francis to Welcare.
FINANCIAL REVIEW OF THE YEAR
For 2024 the parish financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the FRS102 SORP. Financial highlights include:
-
Total income decreased by £49,399 (18.0%) to £225,471 (2023: £274,870). General unrestricted income decreased by £3,726 (33.7%) to £7,343 (2023: £10,569) and income in designated combined funds increased by £9,468 (5.5%) to £182,336 (2023: £172,868);
-
Total expenditure decreased by £6,201 (2.7%) to £225,963 (2023: £232,164); and
-
Total restricted income funds stood at £172,083 at 31 December 2023 (2023: £147,883).
Missionary and charitable giving
It is PCC policy to give 10% of our income after deducting amounts collected on behalf of other organisations. Each church decides on the organisations which it wishes to support in this way.
Reserves Policy
It is PCC policy to maintain a balance on unrestricted funds (if possible), sufficient to cover emergency situations that may arise from time to time. The closing balance of £150,291 (PCC General plus Designated Combined excluding the vicarages) on unrestricted funds represents approximately 8.5 months of unrestricted payments at current operating levels (2023: £172,391 representing 11.9 months).
Risk Policy
The PCC has considered the major risks to which the church is exposed including safeguarding children and vulnerable adults (in which regard the PCC follows the Diocese of Southwark Safeguarding procedures in full and has experienced safeguarding officers to assist it), disability discrimination, health and safety and fire protection. We continue to ensure that we meet GDPR requirements.
FUTURE PLANS
The work of the parish will continue as we seek the counsel of the Holy Spirit. The St Wilfrid’s roof project is awaiting approval and investigative work has begun into replacing the boilers at St Bartholomew’s and St Francis.

HORLEY PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL ACTIVITIES for the year ended 31 December 2024
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of Horley (also known as the Horley Parochial Church Council) is a charity registered in England and Wales (charity no. 1133767). Its principal address of business is: The Parish Office, St Bartholomew's Church, Church Road, Horley RH6 8AB.
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006, the Charities Act 2011, Financial Reporting Standard 102 (FRS102) and the Charities' Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting by Charities , issued in 2016 and updated in 2019 (Charities SORP (FRS102)).
The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for the valuation of investment assets, which are shown at market value, and vicarages which are shown at fair value.
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.
The financial statements have been presented in pounds sterling, rounded to the nearest £1.
Going concern
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the PCC's ability to continue as a going concern.
Funds
The unrestricted general fund may be used at the discretion of the PCC. The unrestricted designated funds comprise the unrestricted general funds for the three churches and other funds held for specific purposes as described in note 10 below.
Restricted Income funds comprise those for which the Rochester and Southwark Diocesan Church Trust acts as trustee or are held for other non-discretionary purposes.
Endowment funds comprise trusts given to the parish to provide income for its needs, but whose capital cannot normally be used.
Income
Planned giving, collections and donations are recognised when received. Tax refunds are recognised when the income to which they relate is received.
Grants and legacies are accounted for when the PCC is legally entitled to the amounts due and it is probable that they will be received. Dividends and interest are accounted for when receivable.
All other income is recognised when it is probable that it will be received. All income is accounted for gross.
The churches depend on the services of volunteers for many of their activities. The PCC does not account for services donated by volunteers as their fair value cannot be measured reliably.

HORLEY PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL ACTIVITIES for the year ended 31 December 2024
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Expenditure
All expenditure is accounted for when there is a binding or constructive obligation on the PCC. The primary purpose of the churches is not grant making. Monies given to individuals and other Christian organisations are not considered as grants. The diocesan parish share is accounted for when due. All other expenditure is recognised when it is incurred and is accounted for gross.
Fixed assets
Consecrated and benefice property is not included in the accounts in accordance with the Charities Act 2011. Such property is held for the purposes of housing clergy.
Therefore, even when parish clergy are not resident and rental income is obtained, the vicarages are not considered as investment properties.
They are held in a separate fund and rentals during vacancies will be used for repairs. The vicarages were revalued last year at fair value by an estate agent, and were revalued this year by the trustees using readily available market data via the Nationwide House Price Index.
No value is placed on moveable church furnishings held by the churchwardens on a 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 benefice buildings and moveable church furnishings, whether maintenance or improvement, is written off as expenditure in the SOFA.
Investments
Fixed asset investments represent grave trusts and the net proceeds from the sale of Albert Rooms. They are valued at market value as supplied by the Rochester and Southwark Diocesan Trust.
Short term deposits are placed with the Church Board of Finance and are available on demand. They are valued at the original deposit plus accrued interest less withdrawals.
Realised gains and losses are recognised when investments are sold. Unrealised gains or losses are accounted for on revaluation of investments at 31 December. The Statement of Financial Activities includes the net gains and losses on revaluations and disposals throughout the year and are shown as a component of net income.
Stocks
These represent a notional value of oil held in the tanks at St Bartholomew's.
Debtors and Creditors
Debtors are measured at the amount receivable less impairment. Creditors are recognised when the parish incurs a binding obligation and they are measured at amortised cost.
Financial Instruments
The charity only has financial assets and liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

Purposes of funds:
Crypto Fund: this represents funds held in Church of England listed investments.
St Francis Organ Fund: this represents monies given by a legacy for the purpose of revamping the organ at St Francis church. It had not been recognised separately and so the prior year adjustment is to correct this.
St Francis Evangelism Fund: this represents monies given by a legacy for the purpose of evangelistic expenditure at St Francis church. It had not been recognised separately and so the prior year adjustment is to correct this.
St Bart's Boiler Fund: these represent donations over many years towards replacement boilers for St Barts.
St Bart's Tower/Spire Roof Fund: this comprises donations towards the repair works on the main roof at St Bart's.
St Bart's Puppets Fund: these represent donations given towards the Puppets ministry at St Barts. Last year monies were transferred to the Youth Camp as agreed by the original donors.
Clergy gift: last year these were monies collected for a gift towards the Team Rector in advance of a three-month sabbatical taken during the year, and this year for a leaving gift for one curate who transferred to another Parish towards the start of this year.
St Bart's WNS (Winter Night Shelter): this represented donations given towards the Winter Night Shelter, a project run by a local charity, Renewed Hope, specifically for light and heat incurred in using St Bart's as one of the host locations. It was agreed to transfer this money in 2024 to St Wilfrid's as they became the Night Shelter host in this year. St Bart's Other: these represent various other smaller appeals which are immaterial in size and have therefore been grouped together.
Churchyard Fund: this consisted of local Council grants given for the purpose of maintaining St Bart's churchyard and graveyard.
St Wilfrid's Roof Fund: this represented the balance of grants and donations used for the replacement of the heating system of St Wilfrid's Church in 2020 towards roof replacement, as agreed with the grantors. The prior year adjustment was made to reallocate these restricted grants and the cost of the heating system originally recognised in St Wilf's Designated Combined Funds in error. St Bart's Equipment grant: these represent donations given towards the PA and sound equipment at St Bart's purchased in 2020.
Fuel grant: in 2022 a grant was given by the Diocese to help the Parish meet light and heat costs. This was fully expended in 2023.
St Francis Building Fund: this comprises one-third of the proceeds in the Albert Rooms Fund that had been released last year plus a restricted legacy of £10,000 this year for the creation of a memorial garden and seating area at the church.
PCC Other: these represent various other smaller appeals which are immaterial in size and have therefore been grouped together.

Purposes of funds:
Sampson Fund: this was established by a legacy given by a former member of the Parish believed to be intended for the Churchyard. As no income was generated on this fund over the past two years, the PCC voted to release this fund to the General Unrestricted fund as they had transferred funds to meet past deficits incurred by the Churchyard restricted fund.
Parish Hall Fund: this represents proceeds realised on the sale of the Albert Rooms in Albert Road, Horley, and had been intended for constructing new Parish Rooms at St Barts. During 2022 it was decided that, as the investments were generating annual income of less than £1,000, the PCC should approach the Diocese with a view to releasing these funds towards building projects of each of the three churches, and this was granted. In 2024 these funds were encashed and the proceeds released in equal parts to each church, restricted to their building funds.

11 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Other than expenses reimbursed to trustees as set out in notes 3 and 4, there were no related party disclosures which required disclosure. Donations from Trustees did not have conditions attached which would have required the PCC to significantly alter the nature of the Parish's activities.
