Eastbourne Parish Church

St Mary the Virgin Registered Charity No 1133958

Trustees Annual Report for 2021

Structure, governance and management

The Parochial Church Council (PCC) is registered with the Charity Commission as required by the Charities Act 2011. Its governing document is the Parochial Church Council (Powers) Measure 1956.

During the year the following served as members of the Parochial Church Council:-

Ex-Officio Members:- Incumbent Canon Tom Mendel MA SSC Wardens Martin Devonish Sue Mattocks

Deanery Synod:- Brian Etheridge (also Stewardship Secretary) Ian MacKellar (also Clerk of the Works) Graham Marsden John Oliphant Nancy Randles (also Treasurer and Secretary)

Elected Members:- Elaine Fletcher (Safeguarding Officer) Jason Clarke (to 25[th] May 2021) Gillian Cant (to 25[th] May 2021) Paul Bartholomew Cam Taylor (deceased) Carol Walsh Gill Siggs (from 25[th] May 2021) Elaine Beynon (from 25[th] May 2021) Lyndsay Hylton (from 25[th] May 2021)

Membership of the PCC is determined under the Church Representation Rules and consists of certain ex-officio members (the Incumbent/Priest in Charge, Curates, Lay Readers licensed to officiate in the church, the Churchwardens and members of the Deanery, Diocesan or General Synods and up to nine members of the Church who are elected at the Annual Parochial Church Meeting (APCM). Members of the congregation are warmly encouraged to stand for election to the PCC and attempts are made where possible to ensure there is a balance of skills and experience on the Council.

Aims and Purposes

The primary objective of St Mary’s PCC is the promotion of the Gospel of Our Lord Jesus Christ according to the doctrine and practices of the Church of England. The PCC has the responsibility of co-operating with the Incumbent, Canon Tom Mendel, in promoting in the ecclesiastical parish the whole mission of the church, pastoral, evangelical, social and ecumenical.

3

The PCC’s objectives for the year have continued to be

The PCC maintains an overview of worship throughout the Parish and makes suggestions on how our services can involve the many groups that live within the Parish. Our services and worship put faith into practice through prayer and scripture, music and sacrament.

When planning our activities for the year, the Incumbent and the PCC have considered the Charity Commissioner’s 2018 guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the specific guidance to charities for the advancement of religion. In particular we try to enable local people to live out their faith as part of our parish community through:-

To facilitate this work it is imperative that we maintain the fabric of St Mary’s Church, The Old Parsonage and The Old Parsonage Barn and Cart Lodge.

Committees

The PCC operates through a number of committees. The Standing and Finance Committee is the only committee required by law. Its membership consists of the Vicar, Churchwardens, Secretary, Treasurer, Stewardship Secretary and Clerk of Works.

Achievements and Performance

Church Attendance

The number of people on the electoral roll is 264. There have been five additions and six deletions since the last APCM. (Sadly six people have died) There are 143 people non-resident in the parish and 121 resident in the parish.

In 2021, once again, there were periods when the church was forced to remain closed. For part of the year there were limitations on capacity to allow for social distancing. When congregations were permitted, Sunday services were well attended. In addition, a celebration of the Eucharist has been live-streamed every day and viewed both within and outside of the parish.

Review of the year 2021

The PCC met on six occasions during the year, twice via Zoom because of the pandemic and associated restrictions, and four times in person. The Standing Committee met as required during the year and Minutes of its deliberations were received by the full PCC and discussed where necessary. During this period, apart from the usual general business, the PCC discussed the following matters:-

The continuing response to the pandemic Christmas arrangements Investments and financial matters Youth matters and safeguarding Building matters and fabric concerns for the short and medium term

Financial Review

  1. The total receipts on general unrestricted funds were £168,395 and are detailed in the Financial Report.

  2. The Stewardship receipts through envelopes and bankers’ orders were £60,656. Our use of the Gift Aid scheme enabled the recovery of £16,012 tax.

3. The largest expenditure of the PCC was the sum of £40,000 paid to the Diocese to cover ministry costs, although this was less than the full parish cost.

Reserves Policy

It is the PCC’s policy

Legacy Policy

The PCC welcomes and is grateful for legacies, of whatever size, and is always concerned to use every legacy for the benefit of the Parish. All legacies are directed to the PCC’s legacies fund, which is used for capital or other special projects. The PCC’s policy is to refrain from using legacies to fund routine running expenses.

The Trustees Annual Report and Financial Statements were approved by the PCC on 1[st] March 2022 and signed on its behalf by The Revd Canon Tom Mendel, PCC Chairman.

STEWARDSHIP REPORT

This annual report is for 2021 before our renewal appeal in February this year.

At the end of December 2021 there were 19 contributors using the weekly envelopes and a further 2 contributors had moved to monthly bank standing orders.

The number of contributors using monthly or annual bank standing orders totalled 70.

Of the total number of 89 in the Stewardship scheme, 70 have signed Gift Aid certificates, which has enabled the Church to reclaim a further 25p for each pound given.

To help maintain and increase the income of the Church we need to encourage more of the congregation to join the scheme, so that the numbers joining exceed the number leaving.

Brian Etheridge, Stewardship Secretary

THE EASTBOURNE DEANERY SYNOD REPORT

The Deanery Synod was able to meet twice during 2021, following the relaxing of the rules due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

The first meeting was held on 30[th] June at St Andrew’s Norway. At this meeting the election of Committees and Officers from the House of Clergy and the House of Laity was conducted. A report was received from the Diocesan Synod which dealt with Safeguarding Training for which all church members who carry any responsibility of leadership will be required to complete. A second item concerned the Diocesan request to all parishes to increase what they pledge for Parish Share over the next three years.

The second meeting was held on 12[th] October at St Mary’s Old Town. Bishop Will Hazelwood, Bishop of Lewes and Brighton was due to speak but had to cancel at short notice. Instead, there were Interviews with two new Incumbents in the deanery, Revd Alan Weaver at St Richard’s and Revd James Knowles at All Saints. In answer to questions from the Rural Dean they told of their coming to faith and where they had been in ministry before coming to Eastbourne.

Brian Etheridge, Deanery Synod Representative

SAFEGUARDING REPORT

The PCC has complied with the duty under section 5 of the Safeguarding and Clergy Discipline Measure 2016 (duty to have regard to House of Bishops’ guidance on safeguarding children and vulnerable adults).

We have endured yet another difficult year, but the Church has continued to provide comfort and solace, whether through online mediums or in person. We have gradually reduced the need to socially distance and it feels like we are entering a new stage of normality. Throughout this transition we have continued to uphold the ethos and values of our Christian belief and within these aims safeguarding is a major part of this. The safety and wellbeing of all our congregation and wider church is paramount and we are mindful of the need to

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 31 December 2021

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 and under current Church Accounting Regulations in accordance with applicable accounting standards and the current (2015) Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting by Charities SORP (FRS102), as amended in 2016.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the inclusion of investments at market 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 affiliation to another body, nor those which are informal gatherings of church members.

b Funds accounting

Funds held by the PCC are:

Unrestricted funds – general funds which can be used by the PCC for ordinary purposes.

Designated funds – monies set aside by the PCC out of unrestricted funds for specific future purposes or projects.

Restricted funds – a) income from trusts or endowments which may be expended only on those restricted objects provided in the terms of the trust or bequest; b) donations or grants received for a specific object or invited by the PCC for a specific object. The funds may only be expended on the specific object for which they were given. Any balance remaining unspent at the end of the year is carried forward as a balance on that fund. Endowment funds – funds the capital of which must be maintained; only income arising from the investment of the endowment may be used, either as restricted or unrestricted funds, depending on the purpose set out in the terms of the original endowment.

c

Incoming Resources

All incoming resources are accounted for gross.

Voluntary Income

Collections are recognised when received. Planned giving receivable is recognised only when received. Income tax recoverable on Gift Aid donations is recognised when the income is receivable. Grants and legacies are recognised when the PCC is legally entitled to the amount due.

Income from investments

Dividends are accounted for when due and payable. Interest entitlements are accounted for as they accrue.

All other income

All other income is recognised when it is receivable

Gains and losses on investments

Realised gains are recognised when investments are sold. Unrealised gains and losses are accounted for on revaluation on 31 December.

d Resources used

Resources expended are accounted for on an accruals basis and are accounted for gross

Grants

Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over, or when awarded where the award creates a binding obligation on the PCC.

11

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

For the year ended 31 December 2021

Church Activities

The diocesan parish contribution is accounted for when paid.

e Fixed Assets

Consecrated land and buildings and movable church furnishings

Consecrated and beneficed property is excluded from the accounts by s.10(2) of the Charities Act 2011.

No value is placed on moveable church furnishings held by the Churchwardens on 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 or benefice buildings and moveable church furnishings, whether maintenance or improvement is written off as expenditure in the SOFA and separately disclosed.

The insured value of the church and the moveable furnishings is £19,240,000.

Freehold properties

Included at cost, but see Note 5. No depreciation has been provided as these comprise residential accommodation where the residual value is expected to be maintained, as it is the policy to maintain these assets in a continual state of sound repair. The useful economic lives of these assets is thus so long and the residual values so high that any depreciation would not be material. These assets will be subject to regular impairment reviews. Provision will be made if there has been any permanent diminution in value.

Other fixtures, fittings and office equipment

Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight-line basis over 4 years. Individual items of equipment with a purchase price of £750 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.

Investments

Investments are valued at market value on 31 December.

f Current Assets

Amounts owing to the PCC at 31 December in respect of fees, rents or other income are shown as debtors less provision for amounts that may prove uncollectable.

Short-term deposits include cash held on deposit either with the CBF Church of England Funds or with Virgin Money.

12

g. Pension Arrangements

Eastbourne Parish Church (St Mary the Virgin) participates in the Pension Builder Scheme section of Church Workers Pension Fund for lay staff. The Scheme is administered by the Church of England Pensions Board, which holds the assets of the schemes separately from those of the Employer and the other participating employers.

The Church Workers Pension Fund has a section known as the Defined Benefits Scheme, a deferred annuity section known as Pension Builder Classic and a cash balance section known as Pension Builder 2014.

Pension Builder Scheme

The Pension Builder Scheme of the Church Workers Pension Fund is made up of two sections, Pension Builder Classic and Pension Builder 2014, both of which are classed as defined benefit schemes.

Pension Builder Classic provides a pension for members for payment from retirement, accumulated from contributions paid and converted into a deferred annuity during employment based on terms set and reviewed by the Church of England Pensions Board from time to time. Bonuses may also be declared, depending upon the investment returns and other factors.

Pension Builder 2014 is a cash balance scheme that provides a lump sum that members use to provide benefits at retirement. Pension contributions are recorded in an account for each member. This account may have bonuses added by the Board before retirement. The bonuses depend on investment experience and other factors. There is no requirement for the Board to grant any bonuses. The account, plus any bonuses declared is payable from members’ Normal Pension Age.

There is no sub-division of assets between employers in each section of the Pension Builder Scheme. The Scheme is a multi-employer scheme as described in Section 28 of FRS 102 as it is not possible to attribute the Pension Builder Scheme’s assets and liabilities to specific employers. This means that contributions are accounted for as if the Scheme were a defined contribution scheme. The pensions costs charged to the SoFA in the year are contributions payable (2021 £2,248, 2020 £2,248).

A valuation of the scheme is carried out once every three years. The most recent scheme valuation was carried out as at 31 December 2019. The next valuation is due as at 31 December 2022

For the Pension Builder Classic section, the valuation revealed a deficit of £4.8m on the ongoing assumptions used. At the most recent annual review, the Board chose to grant a discretionary bonus of 3% following improvements in the funding position over 2021. There is no requirement for deficit payments at the current time.

For the Pension Builder 2014 section, the valuation revealed a surplus of £5.5m on the ongoing assumptions used. There is no requirement for deficit payments at the current time.

The legal structure of the scheme is such that if another employer fails, Eastbourne Parish Church could become responsible for paying a share of that employer’s pension liabilities.

10. FUND DETAILS

The endowment fund comprises the Welfare Fund and is a permanent endowment which requires the income to be spent at the Vicar’s discretion in connection with the Sick & Poor of the Parish. The fund also includes the Vicar’s discretionary fund.

The restricted funds comprise the Dick Relf Choir Presentation Fund and the Tower Bell Fund.

The unrestricted funds comprise the Fabric Fund, the Property Maintenance Fund, the Legacies & Memorial Fund, the Clergy Housing Fund and the Sinking Fund: Roof, all of which are designated by the PCC. The General Fund is also an unrestricted fund as is the Thursday Market Fund.

In addition, the Snape & Colbeck Trust assets are held for church purposes and are therefore unrestricted but the PCC has designated the income for Fabric Fund purposes.

The Upwick Mission Church & Hall site proceeds are unrestricted funds and have been invested in the property at 108 Green Street, Eastbourne.

Appendix 2 IDdependent Ex8miner'J Report t• the PCC of St. Mary's Parish Cknureh. Eastbourne This report on the accounts of the PCC for the year ended 31 December 2021, which are set out on pages 6- 16, is in respect of an exarnination carried out in accordance with ihe Church Attounting Regulations 201)6 ('the Regulations.) and section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. Respective RespoDsibiiities of Trnstees (Members of the PCQ and the Examiner As the meM￿rg of the PCC. you are responsible for the preparntion of ihe ￿COUnts. you consider that the audit requirement of Regulations and section 144 of the Act, do not apply. It is my responsibility to issue this report ott those accounts in accordance the tern￿ of Regulations. Basis of Independent Ei#mitter's Report My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Direction5 given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)Ib) of the ACL and to be found in the Church guidance 2006 edition. That examinauon in¢ludes a review of the accounting records kept by the PCC and a comparison of the accounts with ihose records. It also includes considerin8 any unusua] items or disclosures in the aecounts and sttking explanations from you as trustees concernin8 any such rnatters. Th¢ procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audii, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the ￿COunt$. IDdependettt Ex￿l￿tr,% Ststsmen¢ In com)ection with my examination, no matter h&8 ¢ome to my attention: (i) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements to keep accounting records in aecordance section 130 of the Act to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply the accountin8 requirements of the Act and of the Charities (Aecounts and Repons} Regulations 2008 have not been mel or {2) lo which, in my opinion, ￿tention should be drnwn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be r￿hed.
