The trustees present their report and the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2024. The trustees have adopted the provision of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
The Parochial Church Council (PCC) is the executive committee of a Church of England parish and consists of clergy and churchwardens of the parish, together with representatives of the laity. Legally the PCC is responsible for the financial affairs of the church parish and the maintenance of its assets, and for promoting the mission of the church.
The PCC has the responsibility of co-operating with the incumbent in:
-
The promotion of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ according to the doctrines and practices of the Church of England
-
Promoting in the parish the whole mission of the church, pastoral, social, evangelistic and, Ecumenical
-
To know Jesus better and make Him better known
-
Practical support and care for people in the parish, from the youngest to the eldest, irrespective of level of need or, ability to pay
The church family welcomes visitors from within as well as outside the parish boundary. Visitors attend by personal choice, and we welcome anyone from all walks of life to take part in the life of the church.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Following on from the new visionary goals in 2023 (Community; Discipleship; Identity in Christ; Culture of Invitation; Heart for Holgate) there were three new vision priorities agreed as follows to help further develop ‘A Place to Belong’.
-
To Know: For each person coming to St Paul’s to know Jesus and God’s great love for them.
-
To Grow: For each person to grow in their faith.
-
To Go: For each person to have the confidence to go into the world to share their faith and God’s love.

The church also returned to Pocklington School in July for the weekend away. A prosperous time was had building community and discipleship and growing in faith together.
Staff team

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Total income for the year amounted to £186,283 (2023: £179,403) whilst total expenditure was £174,590 (2023: £177,129). There were investment losses of £18,427 (2023: £41,831) leaving an overall deficit of £6,734 (2023: £39,557 deficit). This was made up of an unrestricted deficit of £454 (2023: £9,185) and a restricted deficit of £6,280 (2023: £30,372).
There was an increase in planned giving during the year. The reduction in collections was mitigated by an increase in unplanned giving.
The free will offer was increased to £72,000 this year (2023: £65,000) and the PCC have made the decision to maintain this into 2025.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
Investment policy
The funds held within investments relate solely to the reordering restricted fund. Quarterly reports are received and reviewed. Investments are currently held with Ruffer although with the recent losses this is being reviewed as to whether this is the most appropriate use of the funds.
Reserves policy
The current reserves policy is to maintain a balance on free reserves equivalent to two months running costs and an additional one month’s salary costs. For the year ended 31 December 2024 this was £32,103 (2023: £32,522).
Free reserves currently stand at £35,801 (2023: £31,525) and therefore the year end position meets this target.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
The Parish of St Paul’s, York is a parish within the Church of England as defined by canon law. Individual parishes within the church of England do not have a separate constitution. They work within the framework of Church of England ecclesiastical law, consisting of the Parochial Church Council Powers Measure (1956) and the Church Representation Rules. The PCC is a Registered Charity.
The method of appointment of PCC members is set out in the Church Representation Rules. At St Paul’s the membership of the PCC consists of the incumbent (our rector), churchwardens, the reader and members elected by those members of the congregation who are on the electoral roll of the church. All those who attend our services/members of the congregation are encouraged to register on the electoral roll and stand for election to the PCC.
At April 2025 the electoral role stood at 109 people of which 44 are resident in the parish and 65 are nonresident.
The PCC members are responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance to the parish, including deciding on how the funds of the PCC are to be spent. New members are given basic information and welcomed to the PCC as trustees.
The full PCC met eleven times during the year with an average level of attendance of 77% (2023: 76%).

TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES IN RELATION TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standard (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England & Wales requires trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of income and expenditure of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting policies have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose, with reasonable accuracy at any time, the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The Trustees’ Report was approved by the PCC on 5 May 2024 and signed on its behalf by:

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2024 which comprises the Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet and relevant notes.
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
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
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirement concerning the form and content of the accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulation 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.
