THE VICAR’S REPORT
Despite the national lockdown of early 2021, thankfully the government did not require the closure of churches, and it is a cause of some pride to me that we were able to continue the daily round of prayer and praise which is so central to our life as Christians. I am conscious of how many people depend on our church being open and accessible week-by-week, especially at a time of such difficulty and tragedy. Covid has not disappeared, of course (as many of us have experienced recently), and we remain conscious of those who continue to be vulnerable and who still suffer its effects.
We are fortunate to have a large building with plenty of space, however, and have carefully considered the various relaxations of our safety measures at each stage. I would like to express my thanks to John Rossington in particular, who came to church to clean and sanitise on an almost daily basis – sometimes more than once – together with those who did so on Sundays after Mass. Our worshipping life and were certainly not ‘normal ’for much of 2021, but it was a joy to be able to celebrate the rites of Holy Week and Easter, Holy Redeemer Day and Christmas publicly and with greater solemnity.
One particular highlight of 2021 was the Institute Building and church roof repair
project. This was completed in early 2022, but the vast majority of the work took place last year and involved significant time and preparation. More than a third of a million pounds was raised from (among others) Historic England, the Number One Trust, and the Cloudesley Trust, and I ’m extremely grateful to those who have worked with me and the architect and contractors in making it all happen (particular thanks to Gordon Ashworth, our Treasurer, who sat with me patiently many times as we pored over spreadsheets and invoices). I hope some ‘before and after ’photographs will have made it into this report for you to see the necessity and quality of the work for yourselves. Now historic water ingress has been halted, we can turn our minds to the interior of the church.
A cause of sadness which cannot be ignored was the closure of Clerkenwell Parochial School at the end of the last academical year. The school was founded in 1699, of course, and while I bitterly regret the end of such an extraordinary institution itself, I am also saddened by the loss of an important link with so many families and young people. Celebrating the school Mass in the school hall week by week has been one of the great
5
privileges of being parish priest here, together with preparing children from the school for their First Holy Communions at Easter. There is a link to a beautiful film made in school during the last week at https://holyredeemerclerkenwell.com/clerkenwell-parochial-school, which I commend to you. This now prompts us to think carefully about our provision for children and families.
Holy Redeemer Day saw the launch of a new history of Holy Redeemer written and researched by Nicholas Riddell. This is the first detailed account of our parish and sets our story within the wider context of London ’s social transformation since the mid-nineteenth century and trends in the development of the Church of England. It is a significant work and an absolutely fascinating read, and we owe Nicholas a real debt of gratitude for his dedication: if you haven’t got your copy yet, visit www.holyredeemerclerkenwell.com/book
From mid—August our clergy have been assisting the parish of Holy Trinity, Hoxton by celebrating their Sunday Masses during their interregnum. I ’m grateful for the understanding of the congregation here that our priests won’t all be in the same place at the same time very often, but its good to be able to support our brothers and sisters across City Road, and to support the ministry of the wider church. Please continue to pray for them.
I was on Study Leave from October to December (but was mainly covering in Hoxton on Sundays), and Fr Aidan stepped in the take the strain with great cheerfulness and alacrity – his care for the parish were made even more remarkable given the arrival of Adelaide not long after my departure! We rejoice with Elizabeth and Fr Aidan in welcoming her, and look forward to her baptism next month. I extend my thanks to Fr Aidan and Fr Alex, to Sonia and Edward our Churchwardens, and to Janette, our administrator, for making this sabbatical possible – and also for such generous support all the year round. I should warn you that I have two weeks or so of study leave in hand, so hope to manage to get to Jerusalem at some point in 2022/23; the next one, however, won’t be until 2031!

CHURCHWARDENS’ REVIEW OF THE YEAR
Church Attendance
As at the Annual Parochial Church Meeting there were 93 parishioners on the Church Electoral Roll.
PCC Meetings
The PCC met five times during the course of the year. It monitored the finances of the parish, oversaw expenditure, and dealt with matters connected with the maintenance of the church buildings. The major focus of the year was the roof repair project.
After the liturgical sadness of 2020 it was a great joy to have a full year of services which were, for the most part, unencumbered by the pandemic.
6
The liturgical year began in usual fashion with the carol service for the great feast of Epiphany. On 17 February Ash Wednesday was marked with a beautiful Solemn Mass.
It was wonderful to be back in church for the Triduum liturgies and Easter celebrations. A huge amount of work went into ensuing that the church was safe, clean and accessible for all. We were highly fortunate, as ever, to have such splendid music to enrich our worship.
It was a great joy to welcome the Bishop of Chichester, a long-time friend to the parish, to preach on Holy Redeemer Day. Whilst the remnants of the COVID restrictions meant that for the second year running we were unable to have our outdoor procession, it was nevertheless a splendid and well attended occasion.
As summer turned to autumn the church observed All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day, for many the most beautiful liturgies of the year.
On 17th December the parish held a hugely successful outdoor carol service attended by many, including numerous passers-by on the market. The brass band,
richly warming the air with carols, could be heard from the other side of Spa Fields and the occasion was a great sign of Christian witness.
As the year drew to a close, Midnight Mass on Christmas Eve was celebrated, with the return of the traditional carol singing.
The year 2021 for many felt like a world away from the preceding year, marked as it was with the closure of churches. Throughout that time and into 2021 the church has been an ever-constant place of prayer. As a parish we are so lucky to have a building that is inherently holy and to be served by clergy and laity who place at the centre of their lives worship in word and sacrament.
When one enters Holy Redeemer, you are immediately struck by its size and yet when sitting in the nave, whether just for a few quiet moments in the day or awaiting the cacophony of a festival mass, it feels imitate. One knows that the Lord is present. As the hymn writer says:
In the morning of life, and at noon, and at evening, he called them away from our worship below, but not till his love, at the font and the altar, had clothed them with grace for the way they should go.

Churchwarden & Parish Clerk

FINANCIAL REPORT
I am pleased to report that our accounts show a surplus for the year ended 31 December 2021 of £4,189 compared with a deficit of £13,075 in 2020. This is a tremendous result during these challenging times. As at 31st December 2021 the PCC held £80,258 in net assets (2020: £76,069) which includes cash at bank and in hand of £48,330 and £65,266 in receivables which have mostly been collected at the time of this report. Net of creditors (mainly for the roof project) we have £70,311 in cash (2020: £57,666). This is represented by 7 funds:
-
a general and unrestricted fund of £55,574 (deployable against any project that the PCC sees fit);
-
the Baldacchino (restricted) fund of £12,362;
-
the Organ (restricted) fund of £3,950;
-
the Relief fund (restricted) fund of £1,600;
-
the Youth (restricted) fund of £6,739; and,
-
the Junior Church (restricted) fund of £33.
During the year the Church major repairs (restricted) fund was deployed on the major works undertaken on the Institute building.
Our income amounted to £507,953 for the year ended 31 December 2021 compared with £125,920 for the corresponding period in 2020. This significant increase was due to the successful application for grant income to fund major repairs to the Institute building roof. Grants were received from Historic England, the No 1 Trust, the Cloudsley Trust, the Cultural Recovery fund, one personal donor and a reclaim of VAT was secured under the Listed Places of Worship fund. Works to the Institute building were extensive and lasted most of the year. Overall the project broke even, helped by a transfer of reserves from the PCC (£5,000). This was a tremendous result, meaning that the PCC will be able to continue to generate rental income from the Institute building over the long term. Donation and legacy income increased to £46,693 (2020: £39,812) helped by an individual donation to the Institute roof project. Income from Charitable activities increased to £51,256 from £35,358 in 2020. This was mainly due to increased rental income from the Institute building, recovering after COVID. In other income we were successful in applying to the Cultural Recovery Fund, which also funded limited works to the Institute roof project. Finally, of particular note, is the success of the new Offertory box, resulting in collections rising to £2,300 from £1,348 in 2020.
Unrestricted funds expenditure amounted to £107,148 (2020: £138,995). Significant components of expenditure were as follows:
-
£21,716 to the Common fund;
-
£26,669 on the Parish Administrator;
-
£18,034 on Music, for both the Choir and the
-
Organ;
-
£ 9,946 on insurance (increased due to the roof
-
work).
The outcome for the year is highly satisfactory, we recorded a surplus of revenue over expenditure
8
despite the continuing impact of COVID. Above all completing the Institute roof repair project means that we can look forward with confidence to income generated from the Institute Building and the Exmouth Market Centre.

DEANERY SYNOD REPORT
Islington Deanery Synod meetings continued to be infrequent in 2021 in the continuing wake of the pandemic. There was a meeting on 26 July 2021 at Hope Church Islington, although no draft resolutions were laid or votes held. The continuing reduction in the number of school-age children in Islington was noted as well as the impact this was having on church schools. Tamsin Merchant took over the post of Dean of Islington in December.

MUSIC REPORT
It is hard to think of a comparable 12 month period when so many different models of liturgical music-making were used. As COVID-19 restrictions progressively lessened we moved from the fraught era of a very limited number of choral singers at Christmas 2020 to an eight-voice choir with brass ensemble by the time of ‘Holy Redeemer Day’ in July. Along the way we moved on from the organ having to take almost the entire musical load to engaging cantors and more congregational involvement. By the end of 2021, whilst still in a nervous atmosphere and at the mercy of the vagaries of coronavirus, it felt as if preCOVID norms had returned, epitomised by the joyous ability to sing and play Christmas carols.
The Organist is delighted to have resumed music-making with the congregation during the year and encourages everyone to contribute. If there was a benefit in doing without it for an extended period it is surely that we have learned not to take it for granted and to enjoy a good sing whenever we can.
10
Despite the restrictions we were able to enjoy a feast of choral music through the year, with all the principal Feasts enriched with choirs and a Triduum replete with Lassus, Mozart, Victoria, Tallis et al .
We have benefitted from the commitment and ingenuity of many wonderful musicians, not least Matthew Swann – whose Happenstance choir provided music on the first three days of Holy Week and for the eve of Holy Redeemer Day evensong – and Emma McAllister who convened and led the church’s own choir until Easter when she left the role upon relocation to Devon.
Emma’s final gift to us was to recommend Daniel Gethin as a potential candidate to succeed her as director of the church’s choir. We were delighted when he accepted and became our Director of Choral Music, using his extensive contacts to recruit excellent singers for first Sunday in the month choral masses and for ‘specials’, such as Holy Redeemer Day and the hugely moving memorial service for the much-missed Mark Hyder. Daniel, possessing a fine voice and exceptional musicianship is a hugely welcome asset to the music team.
It was good to welcome brass players back to OMHR. Their contribution to Holy Redeemer Day helped to make this something of a spectacular and again ensured the success of Carols in the Courtyard before Christmas.
On Sunday mornings, as a result of a request to hear more of the plainsong Propers – the ancient body of song of the Church – we recruited singers able to learn this often challenging music at speed. They are also asked to provide solos at communion and many have been glad of the chance to show their abilities as soloists in repertoire which has extended from mainstays of the Baroque era through to pieces from the Romantic and 20[th] Century eras.
11
Despite the often stressful circumstances it has been a huge pleasure to have served as Director of Music through 2021 and gratitude is due to the clergy, church wardens and people of Our Most Holy Redeemer for their infinite patience and limitless support.

THE EXMOUTH MARKET CENTRE REPORT
With another lockdown in place at the beginning of 2021, once again there were no events taking place in the hall. With a slight easing of restrictions in February we were able to accommodate some professional dance and choir rehearsals plus some filming that took place. In May we were able to allow seated, reduced capacity events and the after-school classes. Finally in July with all restrictions being lifted the evening events could resume. However, there was understandable hesitancy in some groups to start mixing again, resulting in a reduction in the pre pandemic booking numbers. Things picked up towards the end of the year but overall 2021 for the EMC was again considerably affected by the continuing hospitality restrictions imposed due to the Covid 19 pandemic.
When possible, the following regular groups continued with their sessions and a few ad hoc parties and other events also took place.
- Chamber Orchestra
The orchestra hold their regular rehearsals in the hall and usually present their end of term concerts in the church.
- Tango Classes
The weekly group meets in the hall and the classes continue to be very popular. Private oneto-one classes are also held in the hall.

A number of classes for children take place once a week and they love being in the space.
