Additional governance issues (Optional information)

You may choose to include additional information, where relevant, about:

Among the managing trustees are four circuit stewards, appointed for terms of up to six years, having day-to-day oversight of Circuit matters.

Section C Objectives and activities

The Circuit’s Charitable objectives are those of the Methodist Church, set out in the Methodist Church Act 1976:

The purposes of the Methodist Church are and shall be deemed to have been since the date of union the advancement of:

Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document

(a) the Christian faith in accordance with the doctrinal standards and the discipline of the Methodist Church;

(b) any charitable purpose for the time being of any Connexional, district, circuit, local or other organisation of the Methodist Church; (c) any charitable purpose for the time being of any society or institution subsidiary or ancillary to the Methodist Church;

(d) any purpose for the time being of any charity being a charity subsidiary or ancillary to the Methodist Church .

Much of the detailed activity in relation to the above objectives is undertaken by local churches, which are interconnected at Circuit level for purposes of mission, mutual encouragement and help.

Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)

The tasks of the Circuit are: a) to make invitations to Ministers b) to appoint and manage lay workers c) organisation of preachers, including accreditation of new preachers, ongoing review, and allocation of accredited preachers to take all services d) to maintain a strategic Circuit Policy, in support of the above objectives e) to promote new initiatives in line with Circuit Policy, but outside the scope of existing churches acting individually f) to facilitate the sharing of activities and resources across the churches of the Circuit g) to manage the Circuit Budget to develop new initiatives, and also to enable financial contributions to support the work of District and Connexion. h) to provide Manses of appropriate standard for Presbyters stationed within the Circuit i) to encourage the sharing together in complementary ways of lay and ordained people in every part of the work of ministry j) to provide practical help in training and equipping churches for the tasks which they undertake. k) to ensure that the procedures for safeguarding children, young people and vulnerable adults are strictly followed. In undertaking these activities, the Circuit Trustees exercise due regard in ensuring compliance with the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and on charities for the advancement of religion. The ongoing activities of the seven individual churches, which with one exception (Central) are exempted charities, include: 1. Provision of at least nine services of worship each Sunday, all of which are open to the public. (As of 31 August 2020, the combined church membership stood provisionally at around 400.) Services are led by the ordained ministers, local (lay) preachers and worship leaders. 2. Events for young people 11-18 across various churches within the circuit facilitated by a paid lay youth worker. 3. Public availability of pastoral assistance. 4. Arrangement of weddings, baptisms and funerals 5. Availability of church premises for lettings for approved purposes to external organisations, subject to individual church councils’ agreement.

Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)

The Circuit may from time to time make grants to its constituent churches and to external beneficiaries in support of any purpose consistent with the provisions of CPD and the Circuit’s Mission Statement, subject to the agreement of the Circuit Meeting and also that of the District and Connexion where relevant.

You may choose to include further statements, where relevant, about:

Apart from ministers stationed within the circuit, the Youth Worker, Mission & Outreach Enabler (employed until February 2020) and the Circuit Administrator, all managing trustees, including the circuit stewards, serve the circuit in a voluntary capacity.

Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

  1. In February 2020 the part-time Mission and Outreach Enabler Lauren Rossell resigned to take up a new appointment with Cliff College. In view of imminent restructuring of the Circuit and the developing public health emergency (see 8 & 9 below) it was decided to hold the post vacant for the remainder of the Connexional Year.

  2. The circuit awarded grants towards the cost of several property improvement projects in its churches during the year. During 2019-2020 these included the refurbishment of kitchen facilities at Barlow Methodist Church.

  3. Training and monitoring of local preachers’ performance was undertaken throughout the year by the quarterly Circuit Local Preachers’ meeting.

  4. A range of mission-oriented activities have taken place in local churches, including children’s work, toddler groups, ‘Messy Church’ events, and activities and worship for adults and children focussed on particular interest groups.

  5. Churches across the Circuit also serve the community by providing meeting space for a variety of external groups and organisations, many of which enjoy a close relationship with the churches beyond the formal letting arrangements which apply.

  6. The three manses owned by the circuit were inspected as required and maintained to a good standard to ensure that the accommodation needs of Presbyters and their families are met. In anticipation of a change of occupancy, the Manse at 5A Gladstone Road Chesterfield was substantially refurbished at the end of the year prior to the arrival of a newly stationed presbyter.

  1. Safeguarding training for lay workers and volunteers across all seven churches has continued in accordance with the Safeguarding policies of the Connexion, the Circuit and local churches.

  2. A proposal for the Chesterfield Circuit to amalgamate with the adjoining Bolsover and Staveley Circuit was approved by both Circuit Meetings in November/December 2019, followed by the agreement of the Sheffield District Leadership Team in January 2020 and the District Synod in April 2020. The proposal was finally agreed by the Methodist Conference in June 2020, enabling detailed preparations to be completed, and for the creation of a new Circuit to be known as Derbyshire North East from 1[st] September 2020. During the year and the one before, these decisions had been preceded by extensive consultations across all churches in both Circuits. The consultation process along with the deliberations of the joint Circuit Leadership Teams had been aided by the Chair of the Sheffield District with input from various District officers. In recent years Circuit amalgamations have occurred regularly within the Methodist Church and are encouraged whenever they are likely to result in better organisational effectiveness and missional engagement. A key part of the underlying rationale for this merger was the conviction that although it was technically the combining of one Circuit with another and the retention of many of the existing Managing Trustees, the new entity would be seen very much in terms of a renewed focus on mission and a fresh start for all.

  3. As with all places of worship in England, Methodist churches across the circuit were affected by the emergency legislation occasioned by the coronavirus pandemic and from March until August 2020 all buildings remained closed for public worship and almost all other activities. During this period, due regard was given not only to the legal restrictions, but also the Connexional guidance issued by the Methodist Church. Circuit staff were fully engaged throughout this period in developing alternatives to physical acts of worship including online services and the exercise of arrangements for pastoral care. By the end of August, plans were in place, including the carrying out of risk assessments, to open church buildings, initially for limited acts of worship from September 2020.

Section E Financial review

It is the policy of the Circuit to maintain liquid funds in the General Fund Brief statement of the to cover at least 50% of the annual expenditure and to have an upper charity’s policy on reserves limit sufficient to cover one year’s contractual liabilities, principally the costs of the Ministers, together with working capital equivalent to one quarter’s expenditure. Details of any funds materially None in deficit

1st SEPTEMBER 2019 TO 31st AUGUST 2020

The Trustees present their report and financial accounts of the Circuit for the period from 1[st] September 2019 to 31[st] August 2020.

OBJECTS OF THE CHARITY AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY

The objects of the charity are to advance the Christian religion and the promotion of Methodist principles in the area of north-east Derbyshire covered by the Circuit. The Circuit comprises eleven churches in the area and provides central services to these churches including ministerial leadership.

BUSINESS REVIEW

The accounts of the charity for the period are set out in the Standard Form of Accounts and the trustees consider the financial position to be satisfactory.

TRUSTEES

The trustees of the charity are the members of the Circuit Meeting – made up of the representatives of the eleven churches in the Circuit plus others who have positions which involve Circuit-wide activities. The trustees who served throughout the period are named below.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES RESPONSIBILITIES

The trustees are required to prepare financial statements for each financial period which give a true and fair view of the financial activities of the charity and of its financial position at the end of that period. In preparing those financial statements the trustees are required to:

a) Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

c) State whether the policies adopted are in accordance with applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

d) Prepare the financial statements on an ongoing basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the charity will continue in operation.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with relevant statutory and other requirements. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

PERIOD OF ACCOUNTS

These accounts cover the period from 1st September 2019 to 31st August 2020.
