The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical parish of St Chad, Saddleworth

Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 December 2022

1. People

In 2022 Marion Kneale and Suzanne Bradshaw took on a joint PCC Secretaries role (MK also as Vice Chair of PCC). We welcomed Maggie Dobb, Dee Elvery and Caroline Tamworth as new members of PCC. Mr Chris Longhurst was appointed as St Chad's Treasurer.

Our thanks to ALL mentioned and those we may have missed. We appreciate and THANK YOU for assisting with the efficient running of the Parish.

2. Our Worship and Faith Journeys

Public Worship finally resumed in 2022 and we can now meet in person to continue our faith journeys at each centre. Unfortunately problems with heating and the fabric of the building at St Chad’s has meant that services have been curtailed, particularly during the winter months. However we have continued worship at Kilngreen and the Parish Centre, the latter of which has hosted our vibrant WOW group for children and young people.

3. Mission and Communities in a church for a different world

Oldham and Ashton Deanery met on a few occasions throughout 2022 and discussed the effective use of communication to grow our Churches with information sent out on a regular basis. Our Mission Community action plan is now complete and waiting final approval from the Diocese.

4. Children and Young People

Work with Children and Young people is thriving again. The numbers of children attending Church on a Sunday or traditional ‘Sunday School’ worship has seen a dramatic decline however the group “Worship on Wednesday” (WOW) was created to accommodate children and families in order for them to be able to continue their faith journeys.

WoW, or ‘Worship on Wednesday’, has gone from strength to strength throughout 2022. The short service (30 minutes), aimed at children, regularly attracts over forty children and their parents/guardians. It’s an informal service using a large tv screen rather than books or sheets and makes significant use of WhatsApp as a way of communicating. It is now a key service attracting many families who may not otherwise attend church. This year we have had two baptisms, a first Eucharist service and have begun to complete the ‘Welcome to the Lord’s Table’ activity book. Our clergy have great links with local schools and the service is a great way to develop those links further for the children. All are welcome and we look forward to further growth and engagement this year.

5. Safeguarding and Data Protection

Safeguarding has been an item on the PCC agenda at each meeting this year and no issues have been raised. Our Safeguarding team have been working to keep up to date regarding our online Diocesan Safeguarding training and we have ensured practices are compliant with GDPR. A full review of training and certification is scheduled for 2023.

6. Fabric

Our buildings and the surrounding environments provide both a huge challenge and opportunity. The fabric committee has met regularly throughout 2022 and there is both good and more difficult news.

Kilngreen remains in regular use as a place of worship, our PCC meetings and as a base for the ‘AllStars’. Like all our buildings this demands constant attention and judgement.

At St Chads, late in 2022, the heating system began to malfunction and after Christmas services the building was left until this spring. There are several options on the table, and we remain hopeful that a suitable shortterm fix can be found. If not, the resolution of this issue will likely require significant investment. There have however been a number of really positive developments at St Chads. Huge efforts were made in clearing the graveyards in 2022 by a dedicated band, and these efforts continue this spring. We hope that this will encourage renewed interest in these parts of our estate and continue to develop as an archeological and genealogical resource. In addition, and supported by the Friends of Saddleworth Church, new doors were installed in the building. The new doors are glass and provide a much more open welcome to the building than the large wooden doors in place previously.

The Parish Centre (Lee Street / Station Road) has seen a significant growth in overall usage. The offices upstairs and the main floor upstairs are leased to’ Forward as One Academy Trust’ and ‘Act One’ respectively. The building is also used weekly for WoW (Worship on Wednesday) and other church services.

The Fabric Committee is tasked with ensuring that all our estate remains a safe and pleasant environment for all users and our buildings remain hubs for myriad community and church activities.

7. Finances and Charity support

Lettings and Services continue to flourish. We thank our congregations who continue to support through regular standing orders. We are still able to apply for Gift Aid on relevant contributions.

The PCC certainly appreciate all who pay tax on Gift Aid donations to us - HMRC are one of our biggest givers!

Coffee Mornings continued to run smoothly throughout 2022 raising over £4,000 for designated charities. Thank you to all involved in preparing, baking, serving, promoting and attending these events.

In November 2022 the PCC updated the Away Giving Charities for 2023. Our thanks to all those who dedicated their time to fund raising in 2022 who are now stepping down, in particular: Susan Ackroyd - Action Duchenne; Eileen Skinner - Hearing Dogs for the Deaf; and Suzanne Bradshaw - The Transverse Myelitis Society. Replacement charities will be Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis – led by Canon Sharon, Andy’s Man Club – led by Eileen Skinner and our Mountain Rescue Team (lead tbc). All other monthly Away Giving Coffee Mornings remain the same throughout 2023.

In 2023 we will welcome more new faces onto PCC and into the Church family and pray for those who take on these roles to support our Parish over the coming months and years.
